M NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. YOU ?"

When q lady Is seen at party or bali
Her eyes vainly turn'd III her fits Of conceit,
As she peers at the gentlemen fancying all
Are enchain'd by her charms, and would kneel at
With each partner coquetting-to nobody true
wouldn't give much for her chances !-Would you
When an npstart is seen on the flags strutting out,
WITH his hat cock'd aslant, and glass in his eye
And thick clouds Of foul smoke he stands puinne
about,
AS he inwardly says "What noble am aios 20
while he twists his mustache for the laoles W
view
wouldn't give mucn for his senses would you?
vv1a,, q wife RIMS about at her neighbors to pry,
Leaving children at home, unprotected to play
Till she starts back in haste at the SCUM u Vnelr
And finds n1ds they've been fighting while mothers
sugar eafen-panes broken the wind blowing
through;
When husband is idle, neglecting his work,
In the pubic-house snarling with quarrelsome
knaves
when he CANDLES with simpletons, drinks like a
Turk,
While the good wife at home for the poor children
And that home is quite destitute, painful to view;
4 wouldn't give much for his morals would you?
when boy at his school, lounging over his seat
While he fumbles his pockets for something to eat,
Yet pretendeth to read when his master may look,
Though he boasts to his parents how much he
I wouldn't give much for his progress would
you?
When a man who is driving a horse on the road
Reins and whips the poor brute with unmercnul
While it willingly strives to haste on with it's load,
Till with sutf'ring and working it scarcely can
stand;
Though he may be a man, and wealthy one, too,
wouldn't give much for his feelings would you +?
VIII en- a master who lives by his laborers' skill
cards his gold up in thousands, still craving fo1
Thou oh poor are his toiers he grindeth them still
Or unfeelingy turns them away from his door;
Thou gh he banketh his millions with claims not q
wouldn't give much for his conscience would
you?
When a tradesman his neighbours fair terms will de.
And keeps putting his goods at a wonderful rate
Fen at prices at which no fair trader can buy;
Though customers flock to him early and late,
When few months have fed, and large bills be-
come DUE
Wouldn't give much for his credit would you?
When in murderous deeds a mans hands are inn
Tho revenge is his plea, and the crime is con
ceal'd, us
The severe stings Of conscience will quickly in
trude,
And the mind, sef-accusing, can never be healed
When the strong arm of justice sets out to pursue
wouldn't give much for his tTeedono! would you
When husband and wife keep their secrets apart
Not a word to my spouse about this, or on that;
When tribe may Danish the pledge of their heart
And he naggles-she snaggles-both contradic
fat;
Tho unequaled their love when its first blossom
blew,
wouldn't give much for their Qadet would you
When man who has lived here for none but him
self
Feels laid on his strong frame the cold hand o
DEATH
When all fade away-wife, home, pleasures AM
pef,
And he yields back to God both his soul and hi
BREATH
2es ZIP to the Judgment that naked soul flew
a wouldn't give much for his Heaven would you
