THAT BIG TN OF C--yil.LE.

For bed-bugs by the hundreds came.
And no, bug was halt or lamc,-
A nmhlc brood
But on the saects--was 10 blaine

No warrior on the battlefield
Did more eAuiting pleasure feel
Than |, when the. began TO rrst
And backward foil
hsnked the rasggls with my heel,
And beat them we'll
Strong Sampson with his old ltw-bone,
Although he slew from sun to sun,
Exad, beat him two 10 one
That sultry uight--
Aud sooner had the fight been won
Had II lccn light.
Long and d0leful was the night;
Long and doubtful Was the tghi,
As who should hold by force or might
Thn, old huss bed
Bur when tho morning came with light,
There lay the dead.
Pile on pile, the vanqush'i lag
pile on pile, like cocks o. hay;
And there, uncoi,ia d, TIL this day,

EPHlTAPH ON J. Il. s. OF c--yiLLE.
No more my peaches will be bnyi
And like old Ananias' lie,
Kind death has knock d him into 'pi,
Aud here his form repotes.

lie suffers for each sinful one,
lie for himself hath surely won
No ihurnless bed Of roses.
