'Tla there the streams with fish . , abound, And their farms the game surround; So hind me down my good old gun For . I am bound for Oregon. The cyclone does not there appear, Of storms neither dread nor fear. The clouds doth give but gentle rain Upon the fields of goldeni grain. The people are as good and kind As in any state that you may find; So my advice to everyone Is, Emigrate to Oregon. The hot winds do not there prevail, Your crops are not beat down by i . bail., And lightning does not flash around In the state of Oregon. Now after my advice to you, i'llj bid Nebraska state adieu; So hand me down my good old gum Pot I am bound for Oregon. .'. J. W. EMMONS. Ja'palac, Varnish stains.
