A war Poet,s inspiration.

William Allan, Radical, member of
Parliament and an ardent advocate of
an Anglo-American alliance, whose songs
are widely known and popular among
the wOrkingmen of thenorth of Englsnd,
wrote, on Monday, the following sympa-
thetic verses. entitled
JOHN BULL AND UNCLE SAM
John Bull had once little boy,
Who ran away from home:
The hardy fellow. full of Joy,
Loved in the West to roam.
He had the daring of his sire.
He had the genius, too;
And though he passed through storms of fire.
He all the stronger grew.
Fighting little Sam,
Plucky little Sam,
"A world to be for mankind free,
Saw pushing little Sam.
John Bull once tried to stop his growth,
2 But Sam hit out at once;
So poor old John for peace was 10th,
And ceased the youth to bounce.
To manhood's lusty force and vim,
He grew at freedoms call,
And millions went to worship him,
So he made room for all,
Mighty Uncle sam,
Glorious Uncle Sam,
From sea to sea great, brave and free
Spread dauntless Uncle Sam.
John Bull with proud and loving heart
This message to him sends;
Dear Sam, OF me you are part,
We must, we shall b. friends.
United wen dare wars alarms.
Shake hands, my Sam. hurrah,
Come all the world in arms;
We will not care damn"
The Union Jack of John,
The Stars and Stripes OF Sam,
Shall rulers be on land and sea,
Three cheeas for John and Sam.

Well the editor of the Press ought to
know what Atlantic City rum is, for it is
sold openly here in our hotels, but we will
bet big apple against quarter of book
beer that the stuff sold and drank secretly
in and around Pleasantville will blow up
anything in sight -Atl City Erie Press.
