The same old organ grinders play the very
same old tunes,
The same old spo0ny couples watch the

The very same old Iceman weave the very

And leaves as much when days are cold
and little when they're hot.

the Groveton battlefield, in the
vicinity of the Henry House, Prince
William county, Va, a double-case
gold watch, which, no doubt, was
lost during the war. It was once
a very fine time-piece, but when
picked up nearly all its steel parts
had been eaten away by rust, and /,
while some parts of its inside case
are as bright as they were when it
first left the shop, the outside case
