The horrors of war must be sincerely depreca-
ted by every well wisher TO the human race And
accordingly, we must all look forward with de-
light TO tie period when concord shall embrace
and bless the world.
All when shall reasons intellectual ray,
Shed Ger the moral world more perfect day
When shall that gloomy world appear no more
a waste, where desolatng tempests roar -
Where savage diseord bowls in threatening form,
And wild ambition leads the maddcning storm;
Where hideous carnage marks his dangerous way,
And where the screaming vulture scents his prey
All come best Concord chase with smile sersne,
The hostile passions from the human scene
Msy Glorys lofty path be found afar,
From agonizing groans and crimson war;
And may the ardent mind that seeks rcnown,
Claim not the martial but the civic crown
