ORIGINAL POETRY.
Black’s township it is looking up, and likely for to stand, It will beat both Clyde and Cromwell yet, for it is near good land ; The footpath it is very good, if a friend you chance to meet, Then a walk is most beautiful going up and down the street. Gavan has a hotel in the centre of the town, He s always standing at the door whenever I go down, He has his eyes to business, when the money is about, But if the Court was to leave Black’s, it’s then he should clear out. Whenever Gavan meets me out, he talks so very free ; You’r making songs about the country, why not make one about me. If you make me a good one, and put it well
m rime, You always will he welcome into this stone
house of mine. In case I go too often, and has not got the
hoot, He may be like some more of introduce the boot.
He may tell me what he likes, as he lias talk to spare, But when my money is all done, I am not wanted there. Gavan will be very proud of news that is about, The Attorney General has resigned, and that is Mr Stout. Ihe Permissive Bill, he thought to pass, and put duty on the beer. But the Education question may stand a show this year. Michael Sajimos. Tinker’s Onlly, July 21st, 1879
