A certain great man who likes to mono

an OyHerman of Democratic hue, who was
not disposed to indulge this pretended pre.

curred.
AN Oyfterman bawling, met his Honour so

In the street near the. State House one day.
The Chief flar'd at t'other with maniac's eyes
And darted the frown of conceit arid surprize,
baying—" Sitrah ! get out of my way !"
The D—l I will said the Oyfttrtnin bold,
And the Barrow ran fnul of his le>r,
The Chief bein K tortur'd, cry'd,«' hold I mon
Iter hold !
Tor twenty (hort minutes can scarcely be said
Ere fotgivenefs from me you (hall beg !"

For Ch-f J ... e am I of the State,

And then haotmer'd a cane ah his pate.
" Och Honey I Oh Paddy Whack I strike

" By St Patnck I think, that 1 am the man
What dont mind f«ch a Turkey Cock Juf-ea

I'll beat 'till y<.ur honour lhall bellow."
The Chief was difmay'd, and in his affright,
Sobb d "let mc—dear fir—let me go-
All your Oysters I'll buy, on this very-night
I never was feeo in public to—fight
Since an Oilier I, —was long —ago —ho—ho.'"
T he Oyfterman said " tbe/vgam'rr.e a treat
For the hlo ws they crack'd hard en mycr-wn."
! ne home" (said Judge Jcffry's) we'll fit
fat to feet,
You (hall drink of my whiskey,—partake of my
meat.
And Cockufey will be before fun down."
To h.s lienor's they polked—the oysters were
roasted ;
Some were iry'd—others brought in a fauce
beat.
Then his profpefl of governing (hertly, was
boa fled, —
And afterwards " all honest oyftermen" toasted,
Saying <• pray Sir will you give me your vote ?"
41 My vote ! no honey, youf whiskey is good,
Which J drank by the way o' fatisfa&ien,
Else a fining Oak Ihelajah, made o' hickory
wood,
Inflead of the oysters and old whilkey would
Hive wrought in you this ftupefadliou."
Away went the oyfterman,wheeling his barrow,
The Chiel reeleJ back to the tahle—
Which he turned up with glaffcs and ckairs like
a harrow,
Knocked the skin off bis /him that had loag
wanted marrow,
Crying " Dim me —-I'll live while I'm able."
