MISTHER SAUNDERS.

Och faix I'm glad, I am, be dad, Ther's joy throughout the nation, Begorra sure the counthry's cure Iβ now Raypudiashun; The fools who pay their debts away, Are only geese and gandhers ; We've got the cue now what to do, From honest Misther Saundhers.

Avick, mavrone! New Zayland's loan Infcitnre will not taise ns, For win we owe a bill, ye know, Our tailor tliries to plaise us ; But whin 'tis paid, he smiles all fade, No more ha smirKs an pandhers; It's dacint yet to live in debt, For so ses Misther Sutinders.

Whin England lint the tliriflo spint In Railways an' in Bridges, We Hint our thanks through all the Banks,

We niver tliim begridges, For thanks are elmip, we've got a haip To give away ; 'tis slanJhers To hint that we're in debt ye see'; I'm right—Eh! Misther Saundhers ?

The cauli we got, in fart was not A loan tint o'er the wnthor ; Twas jist a gift, a loving lift Britunnia.gave her daughter; ItV not the same as it it came From Jamiany or Flandhers ;_ Oui English - kin won't miss the tin ; I'm right—Eh, Misther Saundhers ?

Begog, I state, Raypucliate, Must be our cry nixt Sission, Our debts may go to Jericho ; We'll send a new Commission To Father Thames to thry the claims Of those who say we squandhers Ther money spint; an' Prisidint We'll make of Misther Saundhers.

Sura, he's tlio lad, he is, be dad, To do just as he's tould, boye; Ho takes the cuo an' thries to do His jewty, brave and bould, boys ; His Railway fame has raised his name Wid all the great cotninandhers Who rule the roast an , laid the host Ay Tories sich as Satiudhers.

Mβ tchuneful muse, now don't refuse, To ping an' chant his story, Wid song inspire mr noble liar To sound our Saundhers' glory ; May I an' you take dolorou, Or gout, or yallow jaundliers, When we forgot the Tories' pet The mighty Mistber Saundhers.
