Good morning, Messrs. Hill and Greene ; good
morning to you all ;
I've just come in from Baltimore, and mean to
stay till fall; '
I like your ancient city, here, and theatres, you
know;
Your common music, crescent-pond, and church
es, are so so ; .
Your ministers, and editors, and editresses stand '
la bold relief above the crowd that throng our
fated land ; . . ".
And Jackson men and Adams men, are prowling
round the streets. .
With fearful, scowling faces on, as e'er a body
tneets. . . " "
