THE CARPT-BAGGER


AIR-"S1te Wore a Wreath Of Ros es."
He bore patent cofee-pot the day when
first we met,
And peddled tins from door to door, IN
weather cold and wet;
He had a very scarecrow look. Methinks
Iste him now
No vest, torn pants, worn boots, stained
coat-an old hat ON his brow,
But once again saw him-a carpet bag
he bore
He slouehed on propeller tug, bound Tor
the Southern shore;
He looked half-starved and hopeless, and
with an abject air
He pleaded with the captains clerk to pass
him for half fare.
The next time that 1 saw him, twas in the
Southern land,
Surrounded by a ragged crowd, woolly-
pated band;
He stood upon a barrel, and he cursed the
Southern white,
And called each Pompey brother dear, each
Dinnah his delight.
And vet once more L saw him, no signs Of
want were there,
In fashions garb he was arrayed, and pom
pous was his air;
His cheeks were standing out with iat' Ms
purse was allied with gold,
AS Governor he robbed the Wh1tes-the ne
groes he had sold.
POSTSCRIPT BY THE NATIVE.
And yet again saw him, on the size o'''
of July,
A carpet-bag was in his hand as ne wen
streaking by;
His cheeks were thin, his purse was cu'
his shirt-tail sticking out,
And H. unhappy Wells, thank 1ou' wen
h-llwards, doivn the spout.i
