THE GREATER ALLIANCE.

The alliance Anglo-Germau
is the topic OF the day;
Yet a greater combination
Has been framed for fiercer fray.
Teutons, Irish and Italians
Now, at last, are full agreed
That the time has come for action
Against dialect indeed.
They are weary of the libels
Heaped upon them by the stage
They refuse TO stand much longer
For the nauseous parsonage.
Who, in make up idiOtic,
In a manner rank and raw,
SpIutters: "Vat is it?' de
monka?n
'Shurre, tits Moike," ct caetera.
Thus, these allies are united
Firmly for the common good.
When their object is accomplished
Theirs the public gratitude
Splendid, noble is their purpose,
Since, by oath each trusty man
Binds himself to shoot at least one
Dialect comedian. o.
