GREELEY,s HoHENLINDEN.-No. e.
FOR JULIUS, sR.

FOR JULIUS, sR.
In last weeks Ledger apoem appears
Which cost poor Julius many tears,
And many a shake of his long ears
In this, fly time, especially.
Now, julius, are you yet alive?
How in the world did you contriye
To stand the pressure and survive
OF that tremendous poetry?
He says they'll put old Horace through;
ALI that is doubtless somewhat true,
Though now Horace and sorehead crew
Are through beyond recovery.
That we are scabs, old Julius roars;
IT'S better so than running sores,
fAlI rotten to the very cores,
Like all the Liberal family.
He says tits very wrong of me
To speak against the piouS three,
That's Sumner, Schurz, and old Greeley
| Or mention honest Tammany.
He says that it was very stale
To fling up that JET Davis bail.
All there trod on the grey hounds tail
Which makes him yelp most awiully.
lie saws Grants brains are very scant;
What docs he think of Greeley's rant?
IT'S enough to make the Devil pant
To laugh at Greeley's fooleries.
lie calls old Mosby secesh thief,
In the same breath he worships JEFF,
Head devil and secesh chief,
| And cause of the wars caIamities.
This is consistency refined,
Which shows TO any thinking mind
That Julius, and all his kind
Are seven square Democracy.
There is not, between sun set and rise
A Democrat who don't despise
Old Greeley for the cussed lies
He's told for half century.
But Brown and Seymour being brave,
Go and make Greeley their head slaye;
Hoping thus to cheat the grave
Of their long buried policy.
And so tits clear, beyond doubt,
That Greeley long ago sold out
TO them, so as to bring about
A chance to reach the Presidency.
And such bargain Horace made,
1t leaves all others in the shade;
And his best friends are all afraid
That he's stricken with insanity.
Old Greeley then and there agreed,
If his election should succeed,
To place the noted New York; Tweed
At the head of u. S. treasury.
For all the Greeley men know well
Another such thief don't dwell
Outside the region known as hell,
As this same Tweed, of Tammany.
JEFF Davis will be at head OF State,
As he VIII be fitting mate
To help them settle up the late
Southern small unpleasantness.
Then he is to form a cabinet
" hich will accept the rebel debt
On equal terms with ours, and yet
Be Liberal Democracy.
Then, after three months reign
He is to die, and place again
The Government in the hands Of men
Whom rebels rule triumphantly.
And this would place old big Rats Brown
The biggest humbug ever known,
A cross between the ape and CLOWN,
In very high authority.
What the result would surely be
It's very easy to foresee,
re-establish thoroughly
The world aceursed slavery.
But all US Grant men do not fear;
We plainly see the time draws near
When Greeleyites must disappear
With their haIf-breed LiberaIity.
Grants getting stronger every day,
And Greeleyites will soon give way;
And after next election day
They viii cease 20 live entirely.
For when we look among the classes
Which now make up the Liberal masses,
We find the rogues and all the asses
Who live in the communities.
And now, old Julius, call again
Whenever you feel in playful vein,
And will try to be your man
st Liberal POPULARITY.
