I drimpt a dhrame the other night, "
Bat hope it won't eome thrue:
The mimry iv that dridful sight
Has chill'd me thru and thru.
Be jabers, Tat, I can't forgit
The sinscs ir me eyes;
Ye say, me b'y, I'm shaking yit
Wid terror and shuprisc.
' Oh ! Pat Murphy,
I fare that yei and me,
If that dhrame shud be realized,
' " AYuld haf to cross the say.
I drimpt a patriotic band
Was swarming on the pier,
From Erin's frae and happy land,
' - Contict to sittel here.
Aich had a herrin in his hat
A pratie in his hand :
And mint to taich the Naty vs, Pat.
That they shud rule the land.
Oh! Pat Murphy,
They lift thare chareful home
To pprid among the hathen here,
The howly thruth iv Rome .
t jin'rusly proposwl to trate, -And
thin me frinds advised,
To go wid me up Ckcsuut etrate,
And there get nathralized.
- "We met a layding dinimycrat
Along wid ns ho wint,
And got 'em all thare papers, Pat,
AVidout a single cint.
Oh! Pat Murphy,
I thot how I cud fleece
The dirty, snakin Natyvs, wbiu
Appintcd on polecae.
I drimpt it was clecshun day.
The whiskey all afloat,
And not a ha'penny to pay,
Be thim ashadrote.
'Twus walk up to the bar, and take
AYativer yez might cause,
The candydaites i'jr frindshipeake,
Forked over all the dues.
Oh! Pat Murphy,

Continued from the first ir June,
Until'thc end iv May.

To whare they hil l the powls;

The divil roast thare sowls.
Thay wud not lit us ixerciso
Afraeman's dearest right,
But to our whunder and shuprise
Prepared thim selves for fight.
Oh! Pat Murphy,
In vaiu I argyfied,
Wo all had lagil voted to powl
The spalpeens knew I lied.
Hurrah ! we pulled our bludgeons oat,
The rjuestiou'd right to solve ;
Put all the Natyvcs lloeked about
"Vid pistuls that rcwolvo.
The eight of these perswaders sarved
To cool our Irish ire;
Meself and frinds ware all unnarved.
And begged 'cm not to tire.
Oh Pat Murphy.
- AVe mizzled mighty quick.
And closely i;i pursuit thare kirn
A ton or tu iv brick.
I drimpt the grate result was known
Iieyant a tingle doubt,

Complately put to route.

DOIISTICXS HE AS STP.EET-PHZACZING.
Got tired of New York although it is a town
of considerable consequence. Wanted to see
the world; so started for the soven-by-nlne
state of Ilhode Island, where they shingle the
houses all over, out side ami in, and put the
windows in the roof; where they make their
rail fences out of cobblestones; where the
ducks roost on the fer.ce.and hatch their ycung
ones in the tops of the cherry trees; where the
men look so much alike, their wives often kiss
the wrong individual, (Damphool says it's a
way the woman have the world over.) "Went
to the city of Providence, where all the men
make jewelry and all"'tho women believe in
tpirit rappings; where thej 've got a bridge
wider than it is long, and macadamised on
both sides; where all the plaster busts of great
men have grey wigs on; where they light the
gas in the middle jf the afternoon; w here they
drive five horses tandem; where the apples
grow as big as washtubs, and the oysters ob
tain the enormous size of three cent pieces.
Went into the woods after cliesnuts; couldn't
find any, but discovered a magnificent tree in
the distance rejoiced exceedingly thereat
started for it three quarters of a mile away;
went ahead over the stones, ditches, fences,
snakes, briers, and itone-walls, until I reached
it, and found it was an elm, no chestnuts on it;
got very mad ; walked round the State a con
pie of times, and took the first train for home.
Glad to sec the old place again.
Saw a big crow d in the Park inquired about
it, and was told the regular street preaching
was going on wanted to see the fun got a
good place on a fat Irishman's toes. Enter Ga
briel tin horn hole in his pantaloons Bull
Dogge says that if angels have wings they are
also provided with tails, hence this last item
thought it extremely probably. Gabriel mount
ed one end of city halls steps, and after a pre
liminary overture on his horn and a slight skir
mish among the faithful, icsulting in four
black eyes, a damaged nose, and a broken leg,
the religious services commenced Damphool
was entirely carried away by his sympathies
for this last martyr, but soon discovered that
the fractured member was purely vegetable,'
as the patent medicine men say, and the inju
ry was speedily repaired by means of a few
shingle nails and a piece of clapboard.
Gabriel went into win, but in spite of the
sanctity of his name and the holiness of his
aforesaid breeches, he was permitted a fair
field. A female with bosom undressed in the
latest fashion, petticoats Damphool says skir
ticoats not immaculate; stockings, through
the texture, of which her delicate ancles were
plainly visible to the naked eye whose hair
resembled molasses candy, with a nose sym
metrical aa an overgrown sweet potatoe,and in
hue not unlike the martyred lobster; and. whose
teeth reminded me forcibly of the "crags and
peaks" mentioned by the man in the play
took up her station on the other end of the step?.
She, like Gabe. went in for giving the Church
of Rome 'Jessie,' but otherwise did not agree
with him. Did not seem willing to go" to Heav
en by his conveyance, but claimed to have dis
covered some kind of northwest passage some
exclusive path 'cross lots ;' and she advocated
her right of way with all her woman's power
of tongue in fact,they agreed only tolerabl
'Arcades ambo' both celestials, but of a dirler
ent breed B. D. says that some time since they
joined issue on the Devil's head, one asserting
that he has horns, and the other maintaining
that his brimstone friend is a muley.
They both pitched into the Pope abused all
foreigners, denouced the Church of licme,
walked into the affections of the Catholics gen
erally talked learnedly of priests,inquisitions,
dungeons,thumbscrews,martyrSjConvents, nun
neries and other luxuries, as being the only le
gitimate offspring of the mother of abominations
the scarlet woman; and, in fact, seemed to be
having the field entirely to themselves, when,
lo! a change came over the spirit of the gospel
show; for in the midst of the crowd suddenly
appeared a third combatant his classic dress
and intellectual face gave unmistakable evi
dence that he was from the 'Gem of the Ocean.'
"With the dignified and mnjestie beating pe
culiar to his countrymen, he slowly mounted
the steps and took a position directly between
the two, and in a voice strongly tinctured with
the "sweet brogue," announced himself the
champion of that much slandered gentleman,
the Poye of Rome. At this astounding impu
dence the woman for a single instant held her
peace. Gabe was so taken aback that he
seemed about to collapse, but he rallied, play
ed an ad-libitum interlude on the tin horn, and
all hands "pitched in," (as Hiss Agnes Rob
ertson says.) Gabriel commenced the onset
by asserting that the Pope is not strictly a
batchelor,but had seven w hite wives in his par
lor, thirteen ditto bound in law calf in the li
brary, a hundred and forty one golden-haired
damsels in his private apartments, and a per
fect harem of jetty beauties in the coal hole.
Petticoats followed, by saying that he break
fasted on Protestant babies ; drinks whiskey
punch out of a Protestant clergyman's, skull ;
has an abducted Protestant virgin to black las
boots; fifty-seven Protestant widows to dig his
potatoes and hoc his corn, and that he rolls
ten pins every afternoon with the heads of
Protectant orphan children.
Irishman indignantly denied all said the
country is going to the Old Nick, and some
fine morning we shall wake up and find that
the Pope, unable longer to endure our perverse-
ness, has sunk us all forty miles deeper than
ancient Sodom; sail that his Holiness can
send us all to perdition by one wink of his left
eye; that he is the head of the Church of Earth;
has all the power to save or otherwise ; could
get us all out of Purgatory, and send r.s all'ki
tin in to Heaven,' by wagging his little finger;
that lie could, like a Joshua number '2, make
the sun and moon stad still: make the planets
dance an astronomical jigadoon; cause the
hills and mountains to execute a mighty geo
logical jig, while old ocean should beat the
time against the blue vault of Heaven, and ap
plauding Angels encore the huge salutations.
Gabe said he didn't believe the yarn. Pet
ticoats remarked something about the Stau
Sr-AxuLED Banner, being always right sH? up.
Irishman proceeded to describe the future
home of the happy in another world as a place
where there shall be plenty of potatoes, no end
cf thillelahs, oceans of genuine whiskey ; and
where no Know Nothing Yankee -h.;!l bu al
lowed to come and kick up a plug-muss.
At the word Know Nothing there was .".great
sensation. Symptoms of a free oight rapidly
developed into an uncivil war. Petticoats got
mixed up with the crowd, and presently emerg
ed rather the worse for wear, barefooted, hair
down, nose injured by collision, eye in mourn
ing, mouth bloody, and her whole appearance
reminding me of a 'sow that hath eaten her nine
farrow,' I forgot who penned this opposite
quotation, and asked Bull Doggo, who being
excited by the fray, angrily asserted that it is
by "Xcro' or some other d d old cuss," is it ?
Irishman was taken away by seven policemen
in his national carriage, a wlxjellwrrow. Ga
briel came out unhurt, save that he his eleg vnt
features were somewhat marred by the linger
nails of Petticoats. Perceiving that the fun was
over, I turned to go, leaving the self-elated
angel Gabriel a straddle of a hydrant,edifying
the passers-by by alternately sounding notes of
victory upon his horn, and crowing like an
overgrown Shanghai. Yours, devotedly,
