SHUTTERS UP.

In London the aliens are keeping the shutters on thoir shops.— Item by cable.

Shutters up, Germany! We're putting you out of tho trade; Tho game of murder and treachery can be too often played; The Avorld ivqn't bear for an endless time the creed of a Junker crow, Wo knoAV tho Avay to avenge a crime, and Ave've stronger hands than you; So it's shutters up, Germany!—an end of the madman's dream, That spilled the blood of the hopeless foik by Belgian hill and stream; You have stamped your heel on a .people-weak _; you too, ehall taste the cup; You'll find the doom that you came to wreak : Germany, shutters up !

Shutters up, Germany! FareAvcll to the cherished Ho That gavo you Anions of poAvcr supreme, ruler of 6ea and'sky; Tho armies stood that you thought to sAvecp aside from the road you chose, And though murder crawls in tho Avaters deep, there's a Flag that can beat such foes. So it's shnters up, Genu any! Though you come ivith a poisoned breath, In the ond 'tis you and your vonomed hopes shall he in the lap of death; Our hands shall deal Avith the priests of hate, Avhoso God was a Avidemouthed Krupp, And our armies thunder beside your gate : Germany, shutters up ! '

Shutters up, Germany! You planned Avith a devil's plan To ruin the Avorld in lust of blood, and conquer the rights of man; A thousand thousand of dead lie cold, and many of these aro ours, But our hands arc clenched and our hearts aro bold to shatter your strongest poivers; So it's shutters up, Germany!—and end of a year is nigh. And though fields Avithered and children stai'A-cd AvheroA-cr your troops came by, Though you fattened on murder and fed on lust, 'tis on misery you shall sup. We are not less strong than our cause is just: Germany, shutters up! —Sydney Sun.
