APOLOGY,
Upbraid me nolj l newswere
Eternal love to thee,
iFor thou art pnly'five fetl high,
And -lam six feet three;
1 wonder, dear how you supposeiJ.
' -That I could look' o low-;
, There's many a one can tiej a knot,
if, he eternal fix a beaut
Besides, you must confess, my love.
The bargain scarcely fair; ft
Nor ever could we make a match,
Although we" make a pairT jgj. ,
'Marriage-1 know; makesone or two,
Bufhere's the horrid bore'S ;
My friends, declare,, if yw are 'one! c,,
That I, al, least, am four.' .
c.
"'Tis true the morllels hare-said, -
That Love. has got no "eyes
But why- should all my sighs be heaved,
For one who has no size!
And on our wedding-day Jl'arri sure
I'd leave you inthe lurch, "
For yon never saw a steeple, dear,
In th' inside of a church.
Tis. usual for a wife to take . ,
Her husband by the arm,
But pray excuse me should ! hint''
A sort of fond alarm.
That when offered you my arm, ,
That happiness to beg,"'
Your greatest efforts, dear, would be
To take me by the lag! ,
I do admit I wear a glass,
Because my sight's not good, '
But were I always quizzing you,
It might be counted rude! ,
And though I use a convex lens,
By all Godst I hope .
My' wife will ne'er lookup to me
Through, Herschel's telescop e.
is.
TheiL.fare thee well, my, gentle; ohel
I ask" no parting kiss,
I must not break my back to gain
So exquisite a bliss,
Nor. will I weep lest" I should hurt
So delicate & flower '
The tears that fall from such a height
Must prove a thunder shower.
i Farewell! and pray eWt.drown yourself
In a basin or a tub,
. For that would be a sore disgrace
To all the Six Feet Club
But if yu ever again,
Love en a smaller plan,
For why extend to six feel three'
A life that's but a span!

A NEW VESION OF ALICE GREY.
She's all my fancy painted her, -
(Eech cheek proclaims carmine!)
Her tin, although I dote-on it,
Will ne'er, I fear, be mine! -''I've
woo'd her as men often woo
Who, will not take a -May.'
Oh! my purse, my purse is empty,
And I sigh for Alice Gray! ,
I've summer'd 'neath theQueen'sBench Son
f. I've winter'd. in the Fleet!
Again roy credit's, almost done, -v v
My, ruin's night complete;
And when the bailiff comes once more,
E'n he mustpity say
Veil! a seedier cpye I never seed
For tVdreara oriHalic Gray!'

knowing that'tho Blood Pills manufactured by Dr.
Leidy- have obtained the greatest reputation of any

impose upon tho public by selling theirs upon tho
popularity of Dr. Leidy 's Blood Pills.
The public aro thcretore particularly requested to

In all cases where a purgation mnv be necessary
these Pills will be found both effectual and easy in
