THE GATES AJAR.

On the occasion of the birth of his
first child, the poet writes:
One night as old st. Peter slept.
He left the doors of Heaven ajar,
When through little angel crept
And came down on falling star.
One summer, as the blessed beams
Ofmorn approached, my blushlng bride
Awakened from some pleasant dreams
And found that angel by her side.
God grant bu, this, ask no more,
That when he leaves this world of sin,
He'll wing his way to that bright shore,
And find the door of Heaven again.
Whereupon, Saint Peter, not liking
this imputation of carelessness, thus
{by friend) replies:
ON THE PART OF THE DEFENCE.
For eighteen hundred years and more,
I've kept my door securely tyled;
There has no little angel strayed,
No one been missing at the while
did not sleep as YOU supposed,
Nor leave the gates of Heaven ajar
Nor has little angel strsyed
Nor gone down with falling star.
Go ask that blushing bride and see
II she don't frankly own and say,
That when she found that angel babe,
She found it in the good old way.
God grant but this, ask no more,
That should your number still enlarge,
You will not do as heretofore,
And lay it to old Peters charge.
The "policeman's song"
] want to be police.
And at the corner stand;
A star upon my bosom,
A club within my hand.
I'll stand and roll my eyeballs,
BY passing breezes famed;
I'll walk into each restaurant,
And take my oysters panned.
