In Baltimore the Wings agreed sf /
Upon their candidate, ia f.srt..lr,
And mean that he shall be the man
To guide the ship of State; s,afr |
He bears name that is without
A blemish or spot ls.l ,1se
A patriot, hero, statesman, sage
Who else but WINFIELD SCOTT,
Hurrah Hurrah! Hurrah!
For Scott, the brave and true,
Who never yet has lost afight,. su
Nor will he lose it now, II"
Two Generals are in the field,
Frank Pierce and Winfield Scott-'''i
Some think that Franks fighting man,
And some think he is not ~
'Fis said that when in Mexico,
While leading on his force,
He took sudden fainting fit,
And tumbled off his horse. a'.'.''
Hurrah! Hurrah! Hurrah!
For Winfield the undaunted,
Who never in battlefield .aa.
Surrendered, fled, or fainted
But gallant Scott has made his mark,
On many bloody plain,
And patriot hearts beat high to greet
The chief of Lhndy's Lane: rta.
And Chippewa is classic ground,
Our British neighbors know, .4 if..
And ifyou'd hear of later deeds,
Go ask in Mexico! a.-l.tE 5t ass.
Hurrah Hurrah! Hurrah
For Scott and Graham true, ','
They are the boys TO lead the fight,
The boys to win it too! ts .s.-
Now, boys, Wen go the nominees,
And whip out Pierce and King,
From Maine to California
Well make the welkin ring;
Well give the Lokies good Scott "soup,'
Ofwhichs so much we've read,
And if they don't like our soup,
Well give them Graham bread
Hurrah! Hurrah! Hurrah!
Whene'er the chance permits,
With warm Scott soup and Graham
LAD. bread. ... .,..-f,
We'll give the Lokies fits. ....s.
Then let us enter on the fight,
Our cause is Just and high;
Let's show our foes the "fussp we raise
Will make the "feathers" fly. 6---
The gallant Scott, who leads the van,
Is honest, faithful, true; e H-.
Andhe has got the peoples heart
So we say--sohat sag yoW2 a-.
Hurrah! Hurrah! Hurrah!
For Scott the brave and true
He's got the honest PEOPLES HEART,
So esay--wHATsAY you! i.s..
Our noble ScoTT has never failed,
Wherever he might be;
On Cerro Gordo's blood-stained heights
Or in diplomacy,
He calmed the angry border feuds
Upon our Northern line, rose
And caused, where Wars black clouds a.
The Star of Peace to shine.
Hurrah! Hurrah! Hurrah! @
For ScoTT the brave and true; '.
The man that never lost field,
WIN ,cin this field for you! =
The Locofocos brng and boast,
And show themselves quite fierce;
Tho all the capital they have
Is General FRANK Pierce, ....
A man dug up when all was lost
Buchanan, Douglass, Cass- ..
A sort of "Compromise" between
A race-horse and an ass.
Hurrah! Hurrah! Hurrah!
For Scott the brave and true,
Who never faints on battle fields,
But fights his battles through!
Then boys, lurrah for WINFIELD ScoTT,
Who leads the great whig troop,
And only takes when duty calls,
"a HAsTy plate Of soup."
Who never counts his enemies,
And never knows a fear,
But gives his foes a rakng fire,
In front and sin the rear"
30. Hurrah! Hurrah! Hurrah!
For Scott, the brave and true,
! Who never faints on battle fields,
Who fights his battles through!
Now if you'll work, you gallant Wings,
For Scott and Willie Graham,
Well only let the Locos tell
The place where we shall lay 'em.
And when the "fainting" Pierce boys tall
! OF "feathers," day and night,
lust let them know in Scott's war-hat
Thcr's not feather ,ohite.
Hu-rah! Hurrah! Hurrah!
Tor Scott and Graham true,
They are the boys to lead the fight,
The bovs to win it, too
