THE SPEECH.

At first with measured time and slow
His words came forth with tuneful how,
But warning TO the weighty cause
Denounced our thievish banking laws,
And smarting from his recent fall
To powers that be he charged it ell
twas then of wicked trusts he told,
Twas then the stolen thunder rolled
No daring ''old soldier'' would be so bold.
As flashed the lightning from his eye
As he monopoly did decry;
And ships of state sped in the gales
which he had flched from worthier sales.
He told us where the money went
Which we should have at two per cent,
And robber tariffs reused his ire
Since infamous plotters therein conspire;
Alarmed thereat he sweat and swOre,
Mistook his hat for the cuspidore.
THE PRESS.
His greatest efforts he did address
To reformation of the press.
Whose morals all might plainly see
Declared it from his family.
Beneath their eyes 'twould never do,
The editors, rogues and rascals too,
Yet when he met them face to face
With manners bland and friendly grace
He much delight professed to take
Appearing lust as nice as cake.',
And then behind their backs would try
To still be good as printers ''pin
THE KEY
Now, carping critics, bark unto me
For to this riddle here's key;
The Ct %. P, for forty years
Has had her share of joys and fears,
And the quarreling couple represents
The strife of discordant elements
While diverse interests, perverse laws
Contributed much unto the cause,
And late events here in the west
May help you understand the rest.

however. is stronger than O'Brien with

said, there's telephone up to the

call me up and my wife will answer
you" But said the other, "I'm an
