The Bird Of Hope.

A golden cage of %sunbeans,
Half down a rainbow hung;
And sweet therein a ~goldenblrd
The whole bright morningsung.
The winged shapes around itgreW
Enchanted as they heard
1t was the bird of Hope, my love,
1t was Hopes golden bird.
And ever of tomorrow
The syren song began;
All! what on earth so musical
As love and hope to man!
Ilisten'd, thinking still Of thee
And of thy promised word;
1t was the bird of Hope, sweetlove,
1t twas Hopes golden bird.
Though ours should be a cottage home,
From pride and pomp apart,
The truest wealth of happiness
still a faithful heart.
And thus it i~s-"inyolving wealth
Would never be Preferred"
1t was the bird of Hope, sweet love,
1t was Hopes golden bird!

at all,-or, in word, of any body who will
vote Tor him. Will the reader, too. just OBJ
serve the very eloquent and terse style of the
letter, so gerry much like the eloquently writ

preserved by our readers as such:
