SOMETHING OF A POET.
The following Lt0igne adverbisement re.
cantly appeared in a Wisdom paper :
"Julia, my wife, bas grown quite rude,
She has left mein a lonesome mood,
She has left my boaed,
Sbe has tools my bed,
She has given away ley meat and broad,
She has left me ie spite of friends, and

She has parried with her all my shirts.
Now ye who read this paper,
Sines she out this leakiest] caper,
I will not pay one single fraction
Of any debts of her contraction."

Good citizens, pray no'er forget
This land is broad—its people great,
And strict must be the exelee law

Our upper—and our underlings,
There's every year a great ado
To raise sufficient revenue.
Don't tell us that the time has Dome
When we can spare the tax on rum.
True, some of us will drink and pay
The fated price ; end, in the day
Of God's Eternal Judgment, go
Down to the dranlcard's dreadful woe,
But then—.why make so 010011 ado ?

True, many mobher•ltearts will brea
And wifely love, for love's dear sake
Will love, in worse than widowed wo
The wreck of the sweet long ago ;
But why this troublesome ado ?
We must sustain the revenue.

And, ram•betrayed, prove trcitoress

Yet say not that the time has coma
When w0 can spare the tax on rum ;
And cease this troublesome ado ;
We must keep up the revenue.
But stay, men of the revenue I
I have a warning word for you,

To see midnight's anagnifioenoe ;
And, as I stood, a sound came forth

Strange thinge about this revenue.

The mother's moan, "0 God I 0 God

His fatal plunge—to rise no more.
