THE EOAD STEAMER. Oh ! my eye I have you seen the new steamer That goes upon roads, and is bought By the Government—aint it a " screamer }" A regular steam Juggernaut I. I can tell you, it is an attraction— A " traction" engine it Is called— And to see its laborious action > The public stand, gaping, appalled. Three broad ponderous wheels it ha 3 got, sirs, It 3 inside would puzle your wits; It can draw many tons—quite a lot, sirs, Its motion is chiefly in fits.: On this wonder to gaze you'd ne'er-tire, sirs, And speculate you may a deal As to which you ought most to admire, sirs, The smoke, or the " man at the wheel." The inventor most likely thought proper. Whilst building this strange iron horse. When about it he might build a " wopper," And did, as a matter of course. To look at its gigantic proportions When working's a sight to be seen— Like an elephant, huge, tn contortions That's swallowed a " sewing machine." Than a dozen of horses its stronger i And there's no consumption of oorn. But it feeds upon coals., (like the " Wonga,") Supplied without ceasing from dawn. An engineer is payl to command it— A stoker, likewise—in its rounds ; (But the Government's rich, and can stand it,) And it costs eight hundred bright pounds. But should they of their plaything grow weary ; When people have ceased to admire, And facetiously call it a " deary," A lumbering tiling none will hire ; And when useless they find it, and " tin" lose, ' Regretting it ever was bought. Let them piick it right off to the Hindoos Who'll worship, this steam Juggernaut. h. B, Auckland. pRINCE OF WALES THEATRE. .MONDAY. NEW SCENERY.
