THE TIMES.

Alas and alack! Confusions let loose: We try to think clear. But what is the use? We're all tangled up.
 We're wrapped all about With threads of fate's weave And cannot get out. .s It seems that. the world Stands on it's poor head, So upside-down looks
 Each place that we treadI We master a thing, When, lo!-it's a curse We find 1t has turned
 To the very reverse. We'd very much like
 To stand firm and pat. But then we don't know
 Just where we are at. We're surely perplexed
 Ger how things are fixed; Don't doubt it, these times
 Are terribly mixed
