It is a fact that in times of yore there lived a stripling, poor St mean, who had b i n educated for the bar ; but unpropitious Nature had formed him of such uucouth materials that his way was gloomy and his prospects dull he found himself compelled to resort to arts more

mechanical, where

kRules were drawn Ec precepts laid,'

until at length he shone forth a common clerk. lie was sent by his master the bearer of dispatches to certain members of a coallition, organized in opposition to a wise and virtuous ruler, of which coallition his master was the head. The object of these despatches were to organize a plan by which success might be insured to the election of a delegate to congress who Could play the part of a sycophant, And belch invectives forth Against Virtue and her vot'ries. J O admirable selection ! For this he was form'd and tulor'd And discipiin'd In th wily school. And now on this advent'rous scheme He sallied forth and thus address'd The way-ward throng : uTo me attend ; Behold I stand the poor man's friend, Sublimely skilPd in healing arts, Fit to redress yournum'rous wrongs. m Behold the Lordlint of the West, Whose towering might no land-mark knows ; His friends alone his favours share, Whilst you (your country's better part) Neglected lie amidst the gems Of favour and of power. What means this heaviness which hangs upon you, This lethargy that creeps thro all your senses V Arise, and in your power and might Stand forth for me ; and with one voice To me vour powers delegate I'll m ike the lordttng tremble !" Now facts are stubborn tilings, we know, And this a fact, a stubborn fact. The giddy throtlg now prostrate bend To ar. 'a delusive shrine and he was chosen Harbinger of the will and fate Of honest mortals, sadly dup'd. Virtue trembled and in disgust Her vot'ries fled, and still withholds From our oppress'd devoted land, There much desired presence. Elate with pride at his successHe vaunting moves an Eastern course, There to appear in councils sage, A Delegate's apologya ooor one too ; But such he was, and such he was de sign'd A tool for some and scourge to others. He leads the van in dextrous skill Of rolling balls ; and sipping deep The noxious juice of corn destillM, Or wheat, or rye. or if pr chance His heart expands, or others fill

The cheering bowl, with rosy wine, He dies away in stupid gloom. Now dormant lies the pon:l'rous heap Of ill digested matter ; until The rosv morn's enliv'ning rays His stupid limbs now renovates And he starts up, amazed to find Himself a being, and alive ! He feels his Ins head, his face, and eyes, Hi massy limbs he turns around, And feels, and views, and feels again : Then to his fav'nte room he stalks, Once more to roll the slip'ry ball ; While lost in thought he ponders o'er The strange events of night. But hark 1 The tocsin sounds a change Of men and measures Fe uful news I His hand now palsied, and the mace Now feehlv drops and the white balls Their sportive rolling cease, He hastens to apprise his friendsWith studious care he would conceal T lis kn wledge from the whole, for fear Some fair mis. chance might hurl him down To where he ought tone. The plan of change was soon arrang'd; Select ones chosen now to fill Each vacant seat, for all were now Flat on their breech, and some must stay In K u sad posture. To mie t Aroast he now aspires, H i- friends he flatters courts his foes, With fawnin : teal their hand he gripes, And courts their favor in the streets, An ' gains the wish'd-fbr ssat. And bow the stripling has become A t ri!ir(r in his turn. Well, fpts arc Stubborn things you know. DICK STRIPE.
