~ CALEB LyoS, OF LyoNsnALE.
Death had no pangs-thy duty done,
Fen to the last, with gallant zeal,
Mid serried hosts fighting a. one
Plat felt mighty nations veal
With soldiers tears upon thy grave
Thou sleepest by deep ravine-
Where cactus blossoms gaily wave,
And the palmetto's form Is seen.
The Indian hunter Oft will pause
With lassood steei beside thy mound.
And as his blanket closer draws
Will think he hears the lannon's sound.
Thy glorious memory is enshrined
In every patriots glowing heart;
Kingdom was thy noble mind
Where love Of country reignsd apart.
In thy last moments did dream
OF early love-of distant years
Fill thy bosom with beam
Ofhope, amid LIES darker fsars1
If SO, how transient was the thought
That faded, as sparkling tide.
And this inspiring m urmur brought
Thou'st bravely for thy country died.
A laurel wreath we give to thee,
All glittering with blood aud tears
Yet, thine coronal shall be
Ofglory, amid countless years.
