The Graves of the Signers.'
Hr MISS A. N. y. BUCHANAN.

Where lie our country's glorious dead =
In graves that know nor ute n II name,
Whence every passing wind has spread
The story to that counry's shame T.
Where, oil unchecked, the rank weed shoots,
Ils noxious fibres through their clay;
And where in safety, loathsome brutes
Across it drag ,h,it mnngled pry1 l.
Where human pride and hope and love
Ne'er meet the rugged clods above!
No midst the dear homes of the land,
Fen as their own he ar.hs unforgot!
The Norlh's stern ycomsn lifts his hand,
Proud from his pough, to point the SPOT;
And the wild scooi-b he has nu sed,
Beside them ies., his tired knee,
Aud tells their flames aud deeds, the LIST
That he has known Of history;
While the warm wish 10 ks through his eye,
Like them to live aud thus TO lie
No! where the Sou his bright plumqgcd birds
And bright hued flowers, sing aud wavc
There hauglty men of burning words
InIeverence seek each que, grave;
And there, if lightly have been spent
Their own rich gifts of God and earth,
Up from the dust voice is sent.
That st rites them to aims Of worth;
There hgh.soul women>pause to pray
May those we love prove such d. the, I"
They lie, where in their glory'S time,
They s,ved their sirts gray heads from harm
In fiufu fields, throughout our cline,
Won from The daik woods by their am;
Where first tn IL chden saw the light,
And where. when pressed 10y Ill and wrong
As 10 tars .owcrrd with might,
Zen yet their childrehs children Thong,
And leei wa we'd may nerve their powers,
