WHEN HARVEY GOES TO BED.

Aside from all personal factional In
terest the following bit Of campaign
poetry has 50 much political fun in II
Il Is almost a classic.
The proverb says that politics
Gets mixtures into bed
That would not lie together
Not even were they dead;
But wild desire for ofice
And a greed for public pap
Makes rivals In each others arms
Lie down to take a nap.
But Momus shakes his rotund sides,
And Folly shakes her head.
And Decency in terror flies
When Harvey goes to bed
When Mitchell puts his mighty" on
And lisped his evening prayers.
His little heart went pit-apat
When Harvey climbed the stairs.
And then as Harvey shed his clothes
J. HIS eyes Of blue.
Though yelled beneath their droopine
lids,
Let Loves dear light shine through
And then in maiden modesty
He covered up his head,
For who indeed can boldly gaze
When Harvey goes 70 bed.
Yes, few indeed can boldly gaze
When Harvey falls in love-
His voice is the Numidian lions,
His glance the bolts Of Jove.
Yet, like the lion, though he roars
He'll with the lamb lie down
That skipping lamb, Jack Matthews,
A lambkin all his own;
But even Matthews turns his back
And wishes he was dead,
For its devil take the bedfellow
When Harvey goes to bed.
AS a person maketh up his bed
SO he must lie IN It;
And Harvey lieth easily
And don't know how TO quit.
At morn his head the "Orego-"
Gives out It's woful vail,
At night he swings the Telegram
And lasheth thus his tail;
And saying thus his double say
He says that all is said,
And then he hunts Jack Matthews up
And Harvey goes TO bed.
Oh! the herd OF Doodle beauties
For which Harvey loves 10 vouch-
The 'heelers" from the North End
And the gentleman from Couch.
Oh! the thunder OF his anger
Echoed by the Telegram
When he damns the whole community
With an everlasting damn;
You will know when all his double rot
And dlatribes you've read
That the gang will be between the
sheets
