"Here hemp is served for stubborn rogues to die in,

And softer flax for tender skins to lie in,

But should the useful project be defeated,

The knaves will prosper, and the fools be cheated."

"A noble undertaking, but abused,

And only as a tricky bubble used;—

Much they pretend to, but the public fear,

They'll never make corn cheap, or horse-dung dear!"

Three. Coal Trade from Newcastle.
