ed back to all the privileges and immunities of greasy citizens, but how terrible will be your disappointment I You will have an ignoble home, overrun by hordes of insolent slaves and rapacious soldiers. You will wear the badge of a conquered race. Pariahs among your fellow-creatures, yourselves degraded, your delicate wives and gentle children thrust down to menial service, insulted, perhaps dishonored. Think you that these victorious hordes, made up in the large part of the sweepings of Europe, will leave you any thing? As well might the lamb expect mercy from the wolf. Power which is checked and fettered by a double contest, is very different from power victorious, triumphant, and irresponsible. The friends whom you have known and loved in the North; who have sympathized with you in your trials, and to whom you might have looked for comfort and protection, will have enough to do then to take care of themselves. The surges that sweep over us will carry them away in its refluen

29. the American Nation. by James S. Watkins. The American Nation! She knows not her strength, Whose armies are millions, through Her breadth and her length; Her Union is strength-- She dreads not the world, Though at her, unjustly, They've thunderbolts hurled. With her navy of iron, And sailors of steel, She scorns haughty Europe, Whose tyrannic heel Would crush with oppression (If crush it they could) That birthright her freemen Have purchased by blood. The American Nation! A light to the world, Where Liberty's emblem, By freemen unfurled, Waves aloft, in its glory, O'er steeple and dome, Protecting and granting The oppressed a home. The American Nation! All freemen we have! No serfs, à la Russia, The nobleman's slave! But a land where the poor The sceptre can wield, And rule with the wealthy, 'Neath Liberty's shield. The American Nation! Independent and free! God grant she, through ages United may be: Ay, grant that her banner Of starry-gemmed blue Shall now and for ever Wave ov

of the utmost kindness: You living man, come view the ground Where you must shortly lie. I desire to show the House what the gentleman from Ohio has written in regard to the African, in a book entitled A Buckeye Abroad; or, Wanderings in Europe and in the Orient. By S. S. Cox. He is describing St. Peter's, and says: In the mean time, seraphic music from the Pope's select choir ravishes the ear, while the incense titillates the nose. Soon there arises in the chamber of theatrical glitr baron over villein, Catholicism came between them and created an aristocracy altogether independent of race or feudalism, compelling even the hereditary master to kneel before the spiritual tribunal of the hereditary bondsman. The childhood of Europe was passed under the guardianship of priestly teachers, who taught, as the scene in the Sistine Chapel of an Ethiop addressing the proud rulers of Catholic Christendom teaches, that no distinction is regarded at Rome save that which divides the p

hoary, Not pillars ten of Marathon, Not Rome's tall column's circling glory, Record such fields as they have won In fiercest fight. Earth with no honors transitory, Such self-devotion, fierce and gory, Can e'er requite. No despot ever saw such forces, High-souled, free-willed, together come; No empire witnessed such resources Evoked by the recruiting drum. Resistless as our rivers' courses, Enough to strike the Old World dumb! Heroes in fight. Their gathering cry a thunder hum. Would banded Europe's legions come To dare their might? To foreign tyrants fearful warning, This strife 'twixt Freedom's children stands, Once more united, meet we'd scorning The leagued wrath of king-ruled lands; With Freedom's flag our hosts adorning, Upheld and fenced by Freemen's hands. Urge on the fight! True to ourselves, a brighter morning, Without a cloud, is swiftly dawning Upon our night. Then, brothers, fearful though the toil be, Strain every nerve to bear the weight; Think what reward will a free s
