JANUS DOUSA.

_Popular Rhyme._--The following lines very forcibly express the condition

of many a "country milkmaid," when influence or _other considerations_

render her incapable of giving a final decision upon the claims of two

opposing suitors. They are well known in this district, and I have been

induced to offer them for insertion, in the hope that if any of your

correspondents are possessed of any variations or additional stanzas, they

may be pleased to forward them to your interesting publication.

"Heigh ho! my heart is low,

My mind runs all on _one_;

W for William true,

But T for my love Tom."
