stupid and insolent poetry, trying
to adapt itso the air of "Marchini

composed to be sung at the re

and the Administration, insolen
in sentiment and wholly inappro
pirate to the occasion, where mel
of all parties and creeds assembl
to renew their fellowship, AM

heart would better squelch thi
poetry and its narrow .souled, bi
goted author with it, if they hop
to make the reunion q pleasant
harmonious success.
