THEyDEVIL'S VISIT TO "OLD ABE."
V !
BY RIV. X P. BIRCH. OV T.A AKAvnv f 4
wruien on the occasion of Lincoln's Procla
mation for Prayer and fasting after the battle o
Manassas. Revised and improved expressly for the
La Orange Reporter, by the?author.
Old Abe was sitting in bis chair of State
With one foot on the mantle and one on the grate,
Now smoking bis pipe, and then scratching bis
' pte ;
For be bad heard tome disastrous news of late,
As fearful as death and as cruel as fate ;
In an old earthen jag on a table near by,
Was a gallon of Buck eye," or "Choice Old
w : .
To cheer up his hopes, Vbich were ready to die,
Under whose potent charms old Abe rouli be able
To Uy all his griefs, like bill, 'on the table
Or, shut up his wo, like ahorse, in a stable.
He eat in his chair,
With a wo-begone air -!
Gazing at nothing with a meanir glass stare,
And looked like a wild beast j ust skeered" in hi
111s cbeek- hones were high 'j and his visage
rougn, f u
Like a middling of baooril all wrinkled and
toagL, j r . I
H's nose was as long, and as ugly aod big,
As the snoot of a half starved Illinois pig ; "
He was long in1 his legs, and ong in his lace,
A Longfellow horn of a ono4legged race, ,
Yet longing thro' grace,for a! much longer space,
'Till he'd hnishod his poliUcall wild goose chase -Bringing
wreck n his country, and endless dis
grace On the blockheads who'd placed him in the
very wrong place." , .' -
The news had 'just reached him of routand defeat,
Of his "Grand Army" broken-f disrstrous re-
' treat 1 I ; 'A
His beat mes were slain on the field of the fight ;
His legions were catterf i with panic and flight,
And his plans had all met with a ruinous blight;
His treasury was bankrupt, his finances smashed;
Hie credit was gone,' and iri bilts were undasbed ;
His country with terrible foes still begirt,
Was tumbling to ruin like a fabric of dirt:'
Ini afraid." said Old Abe. "there's tomehodv
t .. i '
uur.
Thus sitting and thinking
'Twixt smoking and drinking-
Hjs head on n is bosom was gradually sinking
w nen a sound met nis ear
So sharp and so clear,
That be sprung to his feet standing breathless to
near,
With bis mind full of dread, and his heart full of
fear.
TwaB not like the roll of the hurricane's thunder;
Nor tne earthquake that cleaves the tall mountains
asunder ;
'Twe not like the storms which tumultously'
sweep
O'er the lone bending woods and the dark rolling
.aeep;
But a sharp, angry crashing,
A confusion and clashing,
Like things in general, promiscuously smashing.
"If the Devil I" thought Abe, in the sorest of
frights. '
Or a rebel masked . batter v" on "Arlington
Heights."
On the wings pf the midnight winds it flew,
And nearer it came and louder it grew, '
'Till Washington City seemed all in a stew.
It paused just before
The ' White House" door.
And then died away with an explosive roar.
"It's the Devil 1" said Lincoln ; and sure
right,
For just at that moment there gleamed on
sight
The glare of a horrible sulphurous light,
Encircling a form so ghrstly and grim, 'r'' .
That his heart ceased to beat, and his eyes grew
dim. ;
That form stood before him, majestic and dread,"
With large cloven, feet, and huge horns on bis
head. r
Mr. Lincoln wfs seized with a terrible quaking,
And the bones in his skin were rattling and shak-.
ing.
L.ike the 4tdry bones" in the "Valley pf
Vision,"
With such a dreadful collision,
As threatened to make a "long division"
Of his body and members, without "legal deci
sion." "How's your health, Mr. Lincoln T said old nick
with a grin ;
"I have only stepped in
To renew old acquaintance with your honor again.
How are Seward, and Scott, and good Mrs. L ?
I hope aTl your friends are still hearty and well."
Thus baying, he seated himself in a chair,
And gazing at Old Abe with an impudent stare;
Took a drink of "hot lead," from a flaming sky
1 rocket, . '-.
Which be draw from the depths of his overcoat
pockets ? , r
Consulted bis watch with a dandyish grace,
Said he'd made a quick trip thro' the regions of
' space, s. :
On the train of a comet in a journey sublime,
Over millions of diiles in a moment of time.
You, jo fself," said the fiend, with a wink of
his eye, f
"Can travel 'like blazes,' when danger is nigh.
Your Grand Army, too, are distinguished for
speed, ;
And run, 'like the devil, in-case of need.
But all this atid allow me to a'ate : s
I have come here rn business momentously great,
Which deeply involves your political fate.
What means, Mr." Lincoln, this strange proclama
tion, X '-"-
In which you've invited the whole Yankee nation
To fasting and prayer, and to humiliation? . ' ,
It la strange bow a thrashing has altered your no
And called int action; your pious devotions ; '
It seems t ir, yon're a whimsical set,
Ever twisting and turning, like ah eel In net.
; Yon flounder and flout, v.- , , -
1 - . And turn in and turn out. 1

For fasting and .prayer jby the whole Yankee'na-
' tion.i . 1 .j
Do you think'that Jehovah wjll favor our cause,.
While you murder;, arid steal, and violate laws 7

To fight with tbe spirit of 'Seventy-Six,' '
And abandon you pitiful Yankee tricks."
