Littte-Breeeta. The critics have found » fresh field in the new school of blssphemoos doggerel, by Bret Hart, John Hay, and others* The Courier Journal was no captivated with “ Little Breeches ” as to declare it almost the only evidence this halfcentmy has afforded of real poetic genius la this country, and that it effectually silences the charge of English critics that America has no poe's. What American Literature has gained by the appearance of this star in tho galaxy, of letters, we leave the reader to judge: I don't go much on religion, I never ain't bad no show, But I’ve got a middlin’ tight grip, sir, On tho handfiil o* things I know. I don’t pan oat on the prophets, And free-will and that sort of thing— But I b’lleve in God and the angels, Ever since one night last spring. I come to town with some turnips, And my little Gabe come along— No four-year-old in the country Could beat him for pretty and strong, Peart and chirpy and sassy, Always ready to swear and fight, And I’d larnt him to chaw tobacker. Just to keep hie milk teeth white. The snow came down like a blanket As I passed by Taggart’s store. I went in for a jug of molasses. And left the team at the door. They scared at something and started, I beard one little squall, And hell-to-split over the prairie Went team, Little-Breeches and all. M.TAN ATTORNEY - A. llomrr, Banks County, Ga. LAW, *J• B.
