Your face is as black as my boot, Your collar is every way, And your apron’s the color of soot ; Your bair's like a tuft of dried grass, And your stockings right side to the wind, Ri clacsanening pep alas! Your mamma Is quite busy, I find.’’ Eo mamma's gone off in the cars, ‘o complain of those tyrants, the men— My papa fs just washing the jars, And the baby ts erving t 4 hain’t had an beealgort day, Por the cook has gone off in a pet, All the milk fs us souras whey, And the milking is never done yet: “ Papa’s growing wonderful cross, For he can’t get the baby to — And the chickens aint fed, ner the hoss, And there’s no one to bake or to sweep ; Do you think nny mamma will come home ‘ben the Woman’s Convention is through ? We've been a jong fortaight alone— Have they killed all the ‘tyrants,’ think you? “If ever to manhood I grow, (’mra pretty big boy now, I’m sure,) } will marry two women, I know — (And {f two aint enough I!’ have four ;) So the children will have one mamma, While the others attend to the Rights, And I won’t have to nurse, like . if the baby’s so troublesome vig ts.” Large Suspesion Brivex.—A new sus- pension bridge is to Le built acrosa the Monon- os. at Pittsburg from the Point to Jones's erry.
