.rHE LONE STAR OF THE SOUTH


By }. E. DOW.
Far southward DER the Sabine's sITeams
A young republic lifts her head;
Whose single star doth proudly gleam
Der yalor's grave and glory's bed
That star Of empire took It's flight
From freedoms coronal of light
Beamed DER Jacinto's deaf IhIess plain,
And watched a nations birIh again.
And there how sad, how strangely still,
The Indian city Sits alone;
No herd upon the verdant hill;
No skeleton beneath the stone.
Forsaken mart of ages, start
Life's current from thy marble heart;
And bid the pulse oil empire beat,
Through ivied hall and mossy street.
Beside the green and seulptured piles
Whose roofs support the ancient woods,
The hunters home in beauty smiles
And Joy runs through the solitudes.
And where the western Druid trod,
And offered human blood 10 God,
The gospel bell doth sweetIy chime,
At Sabbath morn and even time.
The fierce Cumanches seeks his home,
Beyond the Rio BraVo's wave;
No more in battle paint to roam,
Around his fathers sunken grave:
While the broad stream, whose bosom ne'er
Knew but the swan and fallow deer;
Whlrls the swift steamboats, wheel along,
And echos to the boatfhan's song.
Oh 'Iis fair and goody land,
Where restless spirits love 10 roam;
Where labor spreads his rugged hand,
And decks with flowers contentment's home
Where prairies vast the woods embrace,
And rivers run their endless race,
And wild winds whisper 10 the sea
OF ages past-and yet TO be.
To its green breas; young nations cling,
And ra,e the wall of infant life;
While commerce spreads her ocean wing,
And wars wild bugle wakens strife.
And there the freeman from afar
Sees on its flag pilgrim star;
And strives the glorious hour 20 learn
When the "Lost Pleiad" shall return.
There shall the wave Of life roll on,
AS rolled the north OF Europe's shore,
Till the last boundary is won,
And oceans voices drown its roar.
O'er martyrs grave and monarch's tomb
O'er tyranl'ss throne and knighthood's plume
Ger craven hosts TO slaughter led
The northern soldiers foot shall tread.
What let the British lion roam
Along the pratries Of the south7
Leave life, and liberty, and home,
Dependent on his CORY mouth
Oh! sooner should our children fold
In deepest shame the stars of gold,
And bury freedoms burning shield
On every deathless battlefield. -
Oh for coal Of burning FIRE
That from the Almighty's censor fell,
To touch the lips of son and sire,
And break the soul-destroying spell!
Then should The freeman scorn The name
OF him who dipped his pen IN shame;
And, o;erfhe Revolutions urn,
Forbade sister States return!
