POETRY.
THE EDITOR.
That Editor who wills to please,
Must humbly crawl upon his knees,
And kiss the hand that beats him;
Or ifhe dare attempt to walk,
Must toe the mark that others chalk,
And cringe to all that meets him.
Says one, your subjects are too grave-
Too much morality you have— '
Too much about religion;
Give me sortie witch or wizzard tales,
With slip-shod ghosts, with this and scales,
Ur feathers like a pigeon.
Ilove to read, another cries,
Those monstrous fashionable lie‘s—
In other words, those iiovcls
Citiiiposed ofkings and queens, and lords,
Of border wars, and goihic hordes,
Thatuscd to live in hovels.
No-—no, cries one, wev’e had enough
Of sncli confounded love sick stuff
To craze the fair creation ;
Give us sortie recent foreign news,
OfRussians, 'furks——tlie Greeks and Jews,
Or any other nation.
The man of diilled scholastic lore,
\Vould like to see a little more
In scraps of Greek and Latin;
The merchant rather have the price
Of southern indigo and rice,
Ur India silks and satin.
Another cries, l want more fun,
A witty anecdote or pittt,
A rebus, or a riddle;
Some long for missionary news,
And some of worldly carnal views,
Would rather hear a fiddle.
The critic too of classic skill,
Must dip in gall his gander quill,
And scrawl against the paper;
0fall the literary fools
Bred in our colleges and schools,
He cuts the silliest caper.
Another cries, I want to see
Ajuriibled up variety-
Variefy in all tltiitgs,
A miscellaneous liodge podge print,
Composed,—l only give the hint,
Of multifarious small things.
I want some marriage news says Miss,
It constitutes my highest bliss
To hear of weddings plenty;
For in tiitte of general rain,
None suffer frottt a drought, ’tis plain—
At least not one in twenty.
I want to hear ofdi-aths, says one-
(‘if people totally undone,
By losses, fire or fever;
Another answers full as wise,
I’d rather have the fall and rise
Ofraccoon skin and beaver.
. Sync signify xi secret wislx
For now and then a savory dish
Ufpoliiics to suit them;
But here we test at perfect case,
For should they swear the moon was cheese
We never would dispute them.
Or grave or humorous, wild or tame,
Lofty or low, ’tis all the same,
Too haughty or too humble;
And every editorial wiglit
llas nought to do but what is right,
And let the grumble-rs grumble.
BHSCELLANY
COURTING AN OLD MAID IN DISGUISE.
A young geritleinan of our city, who had
exhausted his wits in playing tricks, andl
had al nost become a terror to his family
and relation, who are of the ltigliest order
of society in point of wealth, some weels,
ago struck tipoii a new mode of having‘
s)ort. He had noticed an old maid who,
was intimate with his mother, and, who,';
we learn, had never been made so happy‘,
as to have a bean. Her age was fifty ;§
her native latid, England. Our young-l
ster determined that lie would court this,
old maid, and for this ptirpose proctired a‘,
sttit of English brdeeches, a wig,arid otherl
things, to suit a disguise of a3,ou7tg bache-‘
lor of fifty! Thus metamorphosed into a
spruce old man, he approached the old}
maid, and by his suavity of manner andt
clian_ed but winning voice, completelyl
succeeded in making love to her, without-
,the least stispicion of his family. She re-j
‘turned his caresses and kisses in a most?
lpcrfcct plirenzy ofdelight! i\’ever before:
in all her born days had she felt the eclec-l_
tric fire ofa lovei"s kiss. Her virgin bo-f
som forgot its age and reveled in ‘the;
-glowing passion of her spring time oflife ;l-
‘the warm but hitherto undisturbed blood.
of sixteen» was now, for the first titne, beat-l
ing and throbbing in :1 heart of fifty. ,
This was a most exciting scene for the:
young scamp; it was so funny he could‘,
not keep it to himself; so he let his moth-‘I
er know it, and she, as quick as thought,’
determined to punish her son for the irri-l
position he had practiced upon her old andl
respectable maiden friend. She, thereforel
feigned not to believe him, stating that it
was impossible that he could so change his
manner, voice and dress, as to impose
upon the old maid. The. son proposed
that he would demonstrate the fact, by his
mother happening in it hen he and his
dame were together. In the meantime,
the mother visited her old friend, and they
becairte satisfied of the perfidy ofthe young
man, and both resolved on vengeance.—-
When the day came for the next visit,
the mother happened in, sttre enough, but
a very few minutes satisfied the imposing
party that he had got into a very bad fix.
The doors were immediately locked, when
the mother and’the old maid each pulled
out it whip from under their aprons, and
the way the young man with an old look and
‘courting propensities got thrashed, was a
caution to all kind ofimpostors. The fury
of the instilted‘rrt_-ai,d__ was as violent as had
‘been l}._el'. pa§§ip_i_i_,_ apd; the back, legs, face
