POETRY. From the Missouri and Illinois Temperance Herald. ., THE GREAT MOUTH. Come fathers, mothers, daughters, sons; The high, the great, nnd little ones; Come, bold your peace, to me give ear, I'll tell you tilings a little queer. The object of my little poem. You'll surely find not far from home, He lives in tow n and country too. His name you'll guess, and that'll do. He's sure a beast in human shape, Yet not at all like Jackanape. From east to west, from north to south. There's none that's got so large a mouth, He eats his meat just like us all. But takes for drink, things great and small; Hear what they arc, and oh my eyes! He swallows things of awful size: A farm he had, a, home most dear, But bartered both for rum and beer, Not only home, but homestead things, Such as would comfort Queens and Kings. At first he drinks his cash all down, And then he goes "on tick" in town; Next down he drinks his spades and hoes, Then ploughs nnd mattocks down he throws; JNowsiieep and cattle, one and .".II, Run down Ins throat as 'twere a stall, Next down he drinks horses and hogs, Ducks and d ickens, cats and dogs. Now for the haystacks and the grain, Potatoes, turnips in their train; Cone geese, turkics and every chick, Down Barney's throat you must fly quick. The door is wide, the scuttle clear, . Peacocks and hens their fate will share: Where now must, next, poor Barney go, To find relief from coming wo, Look out, look round, again he's dry Haste, bring him drink or else he'll" die. Now "clear the kitchen," clear it soon, Bring every pot, knife, fork and spoon. The table-cloth, and table too, Pans, plates and tubs, not all will do, Bring kitchen goods, both large and small, The stove and stove-pipe, wood and all, Bring kettles, ovens, trays and chairs," By all that's law the SherifTswears; Who would have thought he could survive With such a clutter in his hive; But still he lives and still he thirsts, Full twenty times more than at first. We'll search again, the house explore, If still he thirsts he must have more; Take down the hangings of each room, The bedsteads bring, and bring the loom, Bring counterpanes and coverlids, Fetch sheets and comforts and the beds. Come Barney now, come Barney come, There's nothing like the good old rum; To make more room for other thincs. He sends them down and then he sings "My Stomach's full, I'm joliy now, My haystack's gone, and so's my cow." He soon decides what next to do, His house and farm he'll swallow too Stretched pretty wide his mouth has been, To get his goods and chatties in, But there's a remnant house and farm To swallow them will do no harm, So now he strives with mouth and hand, To swallow down his house and land, With slight of hand and eflbi t great, He soon drinks down a fine estate. Fortune entire, e'en to a groat, Has all gone down his thirsty throat; 'Tis strange to tell and truly sad, The more he got the less he had; Now all he has,'ti truth not lies, Are wounds and bruises and red eyes: And as to wife and babes, 'tis said They long since died for lack of bread; And now poor Barney's race is run, The struggle's o'er his soul's undone, The fellow's dead, died in the street, Around him now the neighbors meet, The coroner with jurors come, Their verdict is, "he died of rum." And now for Barney let us draft A fit, appropriate epitaph: Poor Barney Bacchus, "here he lies, No bodv laughs, no body cries, Where Vie has gone, or how he fares No body knows, no body cares. A. B.

Cherokee's reputation ia so well established, and his character so generally known, that it is almost useless to say any thing about tbe parity of his blood, or the per. formanee of his colts; tut aa there may be persona wbo have not noticed bis pedigree, it will only be necessary tn ray that he was sired by old Fir Archie, his damyonng Roxanna, by old Hepliesrtion. Cherokee is a beautiful mahogany bay, full sixteen bnd bigb: in point of form he cannot be aurpasaed by any horse, but aa it ia pre sumed that persona wbo intend breeding to him will ex amine for themselves, it ia unnecessary to give any further description. For the performance of bis colt, the subscriber would beg leave to refer gentlemen to the American Turf Register, or the Spirit of the Tiroes where it will be seen that his colts won almost every important race in Ky-, in the year 1836, to wit: the four mile day at Lexington, the three mile day at Loots-vine, and three mile day at Richmond, beside many other mile and two mile heat. Cherokee stood for many years in the vicinity of Lex. ,7.g:sa Kyand ws purchased in 1836, by a company who removed him to UreEire, io' the southern prt of the state, where he remained until bronght by the subscriber to Missouri. The colts which he got while standing at Grsensburg. were considered superior to any that were ever droped in that country: they won all their engagement last fall, and received many premi ums, which were awarded by the diflercut agricultural societies of that country. marcb 21, 1S4U.
