,lominent physicians.
In neighboring Province, renowned
For PROBES ors profoundly profound,
Where snO S-drifts are plenty,
Apu sunlight IL scanty,
And rivers and forests abound,
There resides most wonderful man.
No common place mortal Is he,
Like the Lawyer, and Captain, and me,
Who spout on the tariff,
And think IL unfair II
The umpire with u, don't agree;
But really q wonderful man.
His breakfasts. and dinners, and teas,
He taxes. like his brother j. BIS,
On the earth-whst pity
While he rosms thu ough the city
or panets and kun 1T his ease.
This profoundly ubiQ uitous man,
So he visits the man In the moon,
Calls on Jupiter, Mars and Neptune,
And asks OF them whether
A corner III weather
Might not be arranged very soon,
This profound, astronomical man.
"For certain rade fellow" sald'he,
Named Vennur. hack IN the couutree,
Has been dabbling In weather,
AID want to lee whether
4 scientist full grown like me,
Cannot sqnelch this prctenliouS young
man"
"And It's plain" said the prophet, II 1
Get my hands on the reinS OF the sky,
There must I've Hsensation
That will stun all creation
Ard a part OF New Jersey, HI! Hi""
Laughed this cynical, weather.wise man
So he dipped down his erudte pen
Quite deep in the ink pot, aud then
Came thicker and faster
The thong hts Of disaster
Awaiting the fair sOnS Of men,
Through the brain Of his wonderful man
Then with exquisite fury and rage
Hcspattered his thoughts on the page,
And loads down the mail Gags
A. heavy as nail kegs,
With his letters 10 sail''rs and sage
This astuie mathematical man.
He predicts from ths dark upper arih,
Something In the milo month OF March.
BY the ninth. tenth, or ELEVENTH,
II not by he ,eventh,
Such a breeze rs " i'll take all the starch
Out OF every incredulous man.
"7he searorts, especially those
v hich lie near The water, Will close
All Their shutteis in vain
Gsinsi the wave and the rain
From below and above, l Supppse."
Says this cautiously weaLher-Sise man.
From the fishing smncks, careless and free
From the schooDers and sloops and navee,
This cyclone Of WigSing
viii tear out the riggins
And strew all the CO tst with debris,
All because OF this " wonderful man.
"For the waves like small mountains will be
When tie tempe.t di plays It's furee,
Blowing fiercer aud harder
None but a Cunarier
Can survive for an hour on the sea-"
Such q tale tells this weather-w wise man.
g.
SCI lives might be <rved in this way
Spacious caves might be found
Reaching far under ground,
Where crowd OF the timid could stay
Til let out by this wonderful man.
But TO those above ground, what sight,
When the wind at It's fury and height,
Gsinst noun iains projecting
And backward DETECTING
Likes corkscrew, tase.ouildings upright,
AS foretold by this veal her-wise man.
Now the time Of fulnllment drewnear
And the iimid turned p.illid with fear:
Many fdgety, lazy
Old ladies went crazy.
To think there must shortly appear
The cyclone Of this terrible man.
Stupid scholars neglected their books,
Poo fishermen hun 10 their hooks,
Many drew-ii Was funny
From the hanks all their money,
And carefully stored II In hooks,
Out OF reach Of the storm OF this man.
To do Justice to all, I desire
ToasSert on the oath OF squire,
That old maids. OF 10th sexes,
Dull parsons who vex W..
With Sermon> on bItm tone and IRE,
All took stock In this Canada man.
Time passed on. as IL often the case,
And This sturdy young March TOOK the
