or-- I wish your bards would sing it rather better In the course of some remarks upon the slavery of public opinion in this country to English authority, a writer in the editorial columns of the Enquirer, a few days ago, pronounced the famous balled upon the famous charge at Belaklava to be "execrable doggerel." Well, in our opinion it is "execrable doggerel;" abominable doggerel; infamously mean doggerel; doggerel, below the standard of Laureate Pye; doggerel, the level of which Paul Whitehead could hardly have reached by one of his meet profound dives into the very abyes of the Bathos.

We show it in a thousand ways apart from the literary question.
