The goat, the goat, the bearded goat,
The horned, the hoofsd, TIP hairy goat;
AS I'm a sinner of 8 ,me fo,e,
This night rode the Masonic goat.
He wqs beast of wonderful size,
With heightened limbs and CLASSY eycs,
And beard tint swept the carpet clear,
And horns that touched the ,h.,nd, lier.
Ye gods. il there's time we feel
Mi givings through our noddle steal.
Tis when we through the mysteries floa,
Upon the dark Freemasons' goat.
Three times was compelled to ride
The beast around the temple wide,
And when tried thc,fearful mount
My hearts pulsations all could count.
Twice did make the circuit fair,
With hold on horns, On tail and hair,
Till on the third attempt and last.
When Ipresum,d Ill danger pNst,
He pitched ne clear off horns and head
And left me fur below for dead.
But when rose with courage frail
The goat had vanished head aud tail,
And was styled by one aud all
The liveliest Mason in>the hall.

hardly imaginable that the Demo

folly of nominating third term in
contravention of its whole history,
but the uncertainty as to the action
OF the administration has befoeged
the situation.
