Dr. Watts to Jonathan.

（A Spiritual Communication.--Medium, Miss Punch.)

Let Dons delight to shoot and smite
     Their fellers, no ways slow;
Let coons and wild-cats scratch and fight,
     ‘Cos 'tis their natur‘ too;
But, Yankees, guess you shouldn't let
     Sich ‘tarnal dander rise;
Your hands warn't made to draw the bead
     On one another's eyes.

Van Nostrand. New York, New York. 1862.
