A Baltimore poet, taking up an old theme, gives the end of Cleopatra in this style I— She got a little p'ison snako, \ Ami hid it in her gowti ; It gave its little tail a shake, And cook'd her goose up brown. 1 ' She tumbled down upon her b«id, | AViiere she was wont to lie, Removed the chignon from h.r bead, '4a'd followed -Antooy. " " Come Bill, it's ten o'olock, time all honeit men were at homo." " Well, Yes, I must be going j but you needn't hurry.'
