LOCAL BREVITIES.

A HOWL was borne upon the blast,
Like wall from dismal shipwreck,
The wall OF men who bet their last,
Their bottom cent on Ten Breck.
The shortest road from Baltimore
Those sad and silent men seek,

They bet again on Ten Breek.
AS o'er the hills they took their VS.
Not one Of all those men spoke,
BeCause-they hadn't much to say.
The lads who bet on Ten Broke.
