shot into space with the force Of Roman

bow OF the wagon Into minute splinters
and compelling His Honor TO take an in
voluntary seat on bald portion Of the
sidewalk. When assisted 10 his feet the

beginning to lay, an the potato bug has
winged its way TO the tropical regions.
The wild chant OF the blood-thirsty mos

and bottom lands, nor has it habitation
on our boudoir. The insidious caterpillar
has ceased to brighten the hustle
otf the fair daughters Of our land
We can now 60 out and walk beneath the
sunshine OF heaven without wearing
sponges In our hats. Most Of the bows
now use bricks. In FIVE more round-trip

copatriots Of the colOred persuasion, will
stab the coon and 'possum, and drown
them with brown gravy. Let every one
rejoice, for the day of feasting is near Al

wounded feelings will heal sufficiently L
permit me TO sit with ease on a soft cush.
