True, the great of her bright and brief era are
gone,
The rainbow-like epoch where Freedom could
peruse , k •
For the few little years, out of centuries won,
Which betray'd not, or crushed not, or wept net
her cause.
True, the chains of the Catholic clank o'er his
rap,
The castle still stands, and. the senate's no
.1110,.re,
And the famine which dwelt on her freedotaless
crag&
Is extending its steps to her desolate shore.
To her desolate shore—where the emigrant
stands
For a moment to gaze ere ho lies from his
hearth,
Tears fall on his chain, though it drops from his
hamlet,
For the dtu3geon be quits Is the place of his
Bnt he comes! the Meswiah of royalty cornea!
Like a goodly Leviathan roll'd from the waves!
Then receive him as beat Buchan advent becomes,
With a legion of cooks and an army of slaves!
He comes in the promise and bloom of three
score,
To perform in the pageant the sovereign's
part—
But long live the shamrock which shadows him
Could - the green in his lie itsnsferred to his,
heart!
Could' that' 1 ongwither'd spot hnt •be ,Verdritit
again,
And a new /prim of noble affections arise—
Then !night freedom forgive thee' this tatice in
thy chain, •
And this shout of thy slavery which sadietus .

Is It =hums or meanness which clings to thee
Were be God—es heti iret.this commxtvnest clay,
With lICAMi fewer wrinkles!than sins on his
Such servile otevotion'mtiht 'shame him away.
AY, roar in his train! Is; thine orators lash
Their fanciful spirits to pamper his pride—
Not thus did thy Grattan indignantly dash
His soul o'er the freedom Implored and denied
Everglorious Grattan! the ben of the good!
So ample in heart, so sublime In the rest!
With all which Demosthenes wanted endued,
And kis rival or victor in all he possess'd.
Ere Tally arose in the zenith of Rome,
Though unequall'd, preceded, the task . was
begun
Bat Grattan sprung up like a (iod from the tomb
Of ages, the drat, last, the saviour, the one!
With' the skill of an Orpheus to soften the brute;
With the fire of Prometheus to kindle man
kind; '
Even Tyranny listening sate melted or mute,
And Corruption shrunk scorch'd from the
glance of his rind.
But back to our theme! Back to despots and

Feasts fuinish'd by Famine! rejoiclngsty Pain'
True Freedom but welcomes, while slavery aril
raves,
When a week's saturnalia bath loosen'd her
chain. •
Let the poor squalid splendor thy wreck can
afford
(As the
bankrupt's profusion his ruin would

Gild over the palace. Lo! Erin, thy lord!
Ries his . foot with thy blessing for blessings
denied.
Or if freedom past hope be extorted at last,
if the idol of brass find his feet are of clay,
Must what terror or policy wring forth be class'd
With what monarchs ne'er give, but as !wolves
yield their prey?
Each brute bath its nature, a king's is to reign—
To reign! in,that word see, ye ages, comprised
The cause of the curses all anneds contain,
From Ccesar the dreaded to George the de
spised.
Wear Flaga.l, thy trappings! O'Connell, pro-

Half an age's contempt was an error of fame,
And that "Hal is thelateallest, sweetest young

Will thy yard of blue rlband, poor Fingal, recall
The fetters from. mlllione of Catholic 'lnaba?
Or, haa it not hound thee the fastest of all

Ay! "bad !

Poor Ovms, CONFEITIT X ROADS (with Is
in the fltait. ter Kouttrcky),Airiit 18680—
The Comers is, amtinyooally eggated.
ticexcely does one fever Fit herself allayed
afore another is set agom and the result
is the community is kept a bilen perpetooally.
There aint nothin like pecce here. Pertickel
erly does this occur when Bascom runs short.
His barrels contain the troo oil wick flows
onto the troubled waters uv, our passions, and
when them is out there is a zninatoer Tophet
to-wunst.
The last eggsiteraent wuz probably the most
pekoolyer that ever happened to enny peeple,
rho it wuz nothin More then could be expected
to grow out uv the altered' relashens uv the
races to each other. It wuz one ny the lega
cies left us by the tyrant Linken, and by ne
meens the least uv em.
Under the old patriarkle system, it wuz the
custom uv the niggers to go by the name uv
their trooly patriarkle masters,wich wuz nes
sary, and not only neasary, but proper. Onto
every plantashen ther wood be , feesers, Han
niWs and Pompeys, and the only way to
distingrish era wuz to ' call em Ceeser -Po
gram, rMnnibal Gavitt,et settry. This sheered
very well ez long ez they wuz in a state uv
ekriptooral servitood; indeed, the proud Can
cashen masters rather liked it than otherwise,
ez the frekency with wick their names wuz
called indikated the extent uv their posses
sions. But Bence these cusses hey sot up for
themselves it aint so pleasant. Now that they
kin own property and . perform all the func
tions uv men, the same ez any one else, ithez
become distasteful to the Corners. It is a
singler fact that the . Corners kez diskivered,
since the niggers wuz set free, suthin they
never knowed afore; to wit: The-niggers hez
an odor onlike the white. When they wuz
slaves, and used to miss em and „play with
em, and wait on em, and'sich, this odor wuz
not! perceptible. It hez developed Bence
tmancipashen. jes so with, ther nanunt. „in
ther normal cendiahen it war. well—sence,its
a degradashen:the Corners won't brook, no
how. j
Deekin Poram and Issaker Gavitt per
tikelerly chated under it. They mourned
and lost flesh under the inflickshen. "To
think," sed the Deekin "uv a hundred niggers
bearin the honerd name uv 4 Pogrom!". "To
think," syed Issaker Gavitt," ny a hundred
nigizers bearin the illustrus name uv Gavitt!"
And so they petishened the Legislacher at
Frankfort to releeve elm by pass* a law
perhibitin niggers fmm bearin the name uv
white men wick . 'wuz their former masters.
The fact 141 red out and thiSlinbrollo wuz the
result.
