The Planters Soiloquy.
BY SHORT STAPLE;

That "times are hard" I must confess,
And mines woeful tale, -.
I feel completely cornered now,
And certainly must fail.
I'm down on all the merchants books
They are down ON me with duns,
T could, indeed, pay all my debts,
Provided I'm In funds. ..
Just now I have no cash on hand,
But pocket room ito fet,"
NV credits gone, and just because
I'm never: out of debt.
1 did have cotton once to sell,
But If I'm not mistaken,
Had every bale already pledged
To pay for corn and bacon.
.Rut when I found the price was low,
q Ind "both ends could not meet"
IfEa friend to sell q load
70 carry out the cheat
Twas thus got beyond the reach,
OF law or liens tried, .n-; ,.
Andsaved a dime for rainy day."
And then felt satisfied.
The merchant does complain, tbs true,
But tits no use TO cry, t ~
They could not get dime from me,
However hard they try. ,..r -. ,.....
I gave my note and promised TOO,
HSure as I live,n I'll pay; i'tT... 81
The promise gone, the note On hand,
HE must be dead ~ they say. .-
As "times are hard" I'll liquidate,
The thing can't be denied '."
Bankruptcy one alternative, ~ -t.
The other-sQicide. ... ..lt.l'.. ..s
If creditors are not convinced, .r
And that too very soon,
I'll give my homestead to my wife,
And settle in the moon. e .
Then, when get beyond your reach,
Methinks I'll hear you sigh;
~, We lost my lien on his CROP"
Now, ,'how is this for high"
Don't send the Sheriff after me,
But let him stay in town;
If cotton goes to twenty cents
Perhaps I may come down.
MORAL,
The true purport of NIL these lines,
Poor human nature shows;
How many men now live to cheat
The merchant of his dues. ..
Tho "times are hard" or getting worse,
Take my advice young man
Don't base contract on q lie;
Be honest If you can. ....
All through your life let candor shine,
Engraven on your mind;I
In every act avoid deceit,
And friends you'll always find.
And should you live your three score
years.
(Your worldly sins forgiven),
You'll die beloved by every man,
And rest In hope of Heaven.
