And like a scurvy politician, seem To see the things thou diet not" King Liar, Act 4.' Scene 6. Where the Elisabeth and James Their flowing streams unite, Within the Fortress of Monroe Appeared the other night A ghost; but darned if I can state How he got in ; at any rate He walked straightway to Carroll Hall, And gare the door a rap, Which roused the drowsy sentinel Out of his dreamy nap. And made him tremble like a leaf It was so sudden and se brief. However, he unlocked the door, And, St. Peter save us, The ghost said, “I’m George Washington, And some to see Jeff Davis. And point his room out, right away— Be quick, be silent, and obey.” Then George stalked into Jcffy’s room And said, “Friend Jeff, how are you ? I see they have not killed you yet; I hope I do not scare yon ?” * Oh, no,” said Jeff, “but pray he seated, Your visit is appreciated.” “Indeed," said George. “I'm glad of that— It gives me consolation; But telKue, Jeff, what do you think About your situation ? I bear that Congress, in due season, Intend to have you tried for treason.” “There’s not a doubt at all,” says Jeff, “They’ll have me put on trial; For since your time the Yankee* have Become extremely loyal l Their taxes pay without a word, For which they damned old George the Third.” “But tell me, Gorge, how is it yon Are praised and me derided ? # You went in for secession, * And held slaves as well as I did; I must ooofess I cannot see The difference ’twixt you and mo.” “Pooh, pooh,’«said George, “I wonder at A man of your discretion ; Raw England, in my day, held slaves, And went in for secession ; And would have been the same to-day, lint, don’t you see, it would not pay. “Besides, you know, to turn their coats The saints are mighty handy, And are as fond of power and cash, As girls aro fond of candy; I always found those shoe-peg pedlars, A canting set of knavish meddlers. “Republics are ungrateful, Jeff, You know it to your cost; They praise me because I won. Damn you because you lost; That’s all the difference I can see, Friend Jeff, there is ’twixt you and me. “However, Jeff, take my advice, If they should prosecute you, Your conduot justify by mine, The knaves cannot refute you. Be this the burthen of your song: If George wus right, Jeff' was nut wrong. “But should the bigots now in power, All human rights deny you, Then meet your fate like a brave man, The world will justify you. But here our conference must end ; Be candid and be firm, my friend." The ghost then walked out of the room With soldierly precision, And I awoke and rubbed my eyes, And found it but a vision, Brought on by sleeping on my back, And drinking too much apple jack.
