THE WELLESLEY " WELCOME."

•
There be some fastidious critics who aaect to think that the
" Ode" given by us in celebration of the Noble 111-irquis'e
return, contains too much matter of levity for an event se
sorrowful; and as our object is to please the palates of all, We
subjoin a more grave production, which possibly may better
suit the tastes of these sedate personages :
Thou'rt welcome to our land of dearths,
Where hunger leads thee to his throne!
Thou'rt welcome to our cheerless hearths,
Where starving thousands groan !
The sickly tradesman welcomes thee
With eye uplifted in despair;
Then looks upon his misery,
And sees thy image there.
Thou'rt welcome to a church, whose wail
Thy friends have drawn from blood and tears ;
Didst thou not hear upon the gale
The echo of her fears ?
Welcome to altars trampled down !
To hearts whose noblest fires are quench'd!
To men who from thy master's crown
By traitors have been wrench'd !
To those upon whose necks thy foot
Was like a heartless tyrant's set ;
On whom thv burning brand was put—
They reel it scathing yet.
In vain upon this mournful day
The roaring cannons sadly pour
Their discord o'er the deep dismay
That spreads from shore to shore.,
As thou in state art hears'd along,
Nor hand, nor voice, nor eye, nor sign,
Prom out the melancholy throng,
Greets thee along the line.
But, like some male De Castro, thou
'Midst regal pageants art made brave;
For death had thrown around thy brow
The shadow of the grave.
Yes ! welcome to a land of blood—
A clime of bigotry and guilt
'Twas thou who first let loose their brood,—
Now check them if thou wilt.
' Now reap the whirlwind thou didst sow—
Repose upon its stormy breast,
And there its voice of crime and woe
May lull thee to thy rest.
Welcome to those thy creed has led
On to the rebel's midnight vow—
The men by whom our blood was shed—
And who despise thee now.
