And wrap the dark earth in their svery pail.
They nestle upon her cold bosom and drear;
A shield from the bre ith ofthe chill parting yea

VOICE OF A VISION.


BY THE REV. C. P. C..
"Amid the watches of the windy night,
poet sat and listened 10 the flow
OF his own changeful tiioughts-unti there passed
A vision by him, mnrmuring as it moved,
A Wild and mystic lay, TO which his thoughts
And pen kept time-and thus the measure ran:
All is but rs it seems;
Ihe round green earth
With river and glen;
The din and the mirth
or the busy, busy men;
The worlds great fever
Throbhing forever;
The creed of the sage,
The hope of the age,
All things we cherish,
All that live and all that perish,
These are but inner dreams." In,rorld.
Amid the howlings of the midnight dogs,
poet sat and in himself did rfyme
patrlotic song, for Latham's Prize.
a vision murmured by him, and therein
America was singing, and his pen
Followed the wOrds-aBd these the words il followed
Americas my name;
The round earth knows,
On land and on sea,
If it cometh to blows
How great, how great be
The British fever
Cured forever;
Down the Hill of Bunker
Like whpt ours they skunk, or
But climbed to its summit
To find they "cOuldnt come it''-
Which, in fact, is the same.
My great war hurried on,
Past believing;
The foe had gone,
Making dismal moan;
Ha! for his grieving
That was a match light compared 10 a blaze.
That was a nudge to the waking amaZet
Him followed fast,
Often him overcast,
Till all my land he found
Wonderful slippery ground,
Their to the ocean lied;
There he stood daring
Boosting and swearing:
'Occan Is mine 20 he said.
"Ocean is yours ?" said l.
In my grand scOrn spoke
After him as broke,
Tossing the wild waves dark
Madly both sides my bark
"Ocean is yours, you say.
Insolent. clear the way!
'Tis the worlds highroad, and
That shall you understand 10
So, like thundering Jove,
Striking his face
With red disgrace,
marked thereon the lie;
Then gave his crazy boat an angry shove!
Later, caught again
Red Cns;s iEtruding;
Bravely fought again,
Still The true mood in;
Short, then, the fight it was,
Victory was mine,
Proving how right il was
My fright divine!'
Later yet, Mexico,
Largely my debtor,
Saucy, did vex me So
How could let herr
Straight went at her. then
Took every town,
Settled the matter, then,
Knocking her down.
Thus is it ever, too;
When in my wrath,
Nations endeavOr to
Slip from my path
But if they mind themselves,
Let Inc alone,
Truly they'll find themselves
Ready to own
.3Inor est sirenus,
Divine the stars;
My friendship is Venus,
My anger is Mars ~
Thus sang America, and made the poet
Most happy with her changeful melodies,
And confident, as he had followed them
Faithful with pen, his labor meet reward
Should find in grateful hearts, and Latham's Prize

RE v. G.. p. G.,

The Rev. c. P. c. had the immortal honor of being
born in sight of the Capitol of the Nation, and with
in the District Of Columbia. We may imagine how
he stood, child poet, on the wharf of Alexandra,
and gazed with large eyes of patriotism on the
swelling dome of our Temple of Freedom, dim and
soft in the blue distance; how grant thoughts winged
the sunny air from that hammered height and nestled
like doves in his young heart, thence fly forth like
eagles over the earth at the call of the magnificent
Latham
His verse is rather of the ranscendental order but
frequently, for little time, rests the boundary of
meaning.
