Show THE BROKEN DOWN POL1TI-! - CIAN. "Patriotism is tho last refuge f a scoundrel." i Utah's, ofliee-cruviog patriot, bo makes ft horrid din, ' About the traitorous Mormoi and bis polygamic sin, : Hia country's eagle is defiled, that bird of piliOit wirg, But to use u modern tcrin-nis morality's moral-ity's ''loo thin." 'Tis true the Mornion is no fool, his is a healthy lifo, His frame it is athletic perhaps, needs a plural wifj, And since his nature crave the boon, lie bates the Bin of stealth, And pays to boavi'n tho gratitude that others pay to wealth. Hiswiveihe treats with tenderness, he failiors overy child, . Toadies them God to reverence with accents ac-cents pure atid mild, With inotl'unsivo manners and kindncs3 in his heart, Ho shuns all vain contention, Mild acts a Christian's part. Away with tho adventurer, tho man of hungry rib, Whi turns him to tin west to ft;ed at Utah's public crib, And lirding Mormons won't beguiled, by bis sprond eagle cant, To make hitu master of their pure, turns iicrce to rave and rant. "Oh, pioui Uncle Samuel, whoso bounty long usUioed The supplicants in luxury, and Cyprian ritea maintained, Give us to rule the Mormons, and to punish their just lives "We'll bastardize their children, and make Cyprians of their wives." Thus prays each pioui scoundrel, for God and virtue's sake He'd stretch tho Mormon on the rack, and roaBt him at ihe Btalie, But to ease bis lamentations, and quench the biped'a greed, Just give nim a ft office aDd somebody to bleed. Venal politicians have alrondy almost worked the ruin of tho country. I Obskrtkr. |
