THE TRUE AMERICAN, A COCKNEY WAIL. ‘The great Pacific journey I have done, In many a town and tent I've found a lodging. I think I ‘ve travelled to the setting sun, All round this continent I have been dodging, Like Lancelot in quest of Holy Grail, From Western Beersheba to Yankee Dan I've been a seeker, yet I sadly fail To find the genuine type American. Where is the object of my youthful wonder, Who met me in the pages of ‘*Sam Slick?” Who opened every sentence with “ By thunder!” And whittled away on a bit of stick. The more the crowd of friends around me thick- ens, The less my chance to meet him seems to be. Why, did he really show himself to Dickens, To Dixon, Sala, Trollope, not to me? | No one accosts me with the words, ‘* Wa’al, stranger! Greets me as “Festive cuss,” hoss ;”” or shouts ‘told | No grim six-shooter threatens me with danger, | No girl has If I don't “quickly pass the butter, boss.” Round friendly boards no cocktail ever passes, No brandy smash my morning hour besets ; And petticoats are worn by all the lasses, And the piano do n’t wear pantaletts. The ladies, when you offer chicken salad, Don't say, “I'm pretty crowded ‘now, I ess 5" lon't sing Mrs, Barney William's ballads ‘Bobbing Round,’’ nor add *'Sir-ee" to es. T, too, ee sat, like every other fellow, In many a railway, omnibus, street car; iked me with a fierce umbrella, And said, ** You git, I mean to sit right thar.” They Gone are the Yankees of my early reading! Faded the Yankee-land of eager quest ! I meet with culture, courtesy, good breeding, Art, letters, men and women of the best, Oh ! fellow Britons, all my hopes are undone, Take counsel of a disappointed man, Do n't come out here, but stay at home in London, And seek in books the true American. —Tid-Bits, By Special appointment to HARM, the Princess (And be it Said) the Most Original.
