UNFURL THE FLAG.
ODE, BY FRANCIS A. DuRIyAGE.

Unfurl the fag-our country's flag
Upheld by gallant hearts and true
A star for every sovereign State
Emblazoned on its field of blue.
No mutilated banner ours
Of dear bought honors basely shorn,
With half its glory-beaming stars,
In frenzy from the Union torn.
Lo, like the rainbow on tie storm,
Its colors gild the brow of night,
And proudly daily with the breeze,
As when it gladdened first the sight.
By hero hands that flag was raised
When foes aroucd were thickening fast,
And tyrant power DER all the land
Its desoiating shadow cast.
When rolled the war clouds DER the sky,
And biazed the lightning fires of death,
That banner met the patriots eye,
Who blessed it with his dying breath.
Amid the crash of ocean war,
High streaming in the sulphury blast,
That flag waved DER the Teeling deck,
Nailed to the CossTITUTIoN's mast
Then be it ours to fence from harm
The glorious flag baptized in flame:
To keep its stars and stripes intact
The patriots pride-the traitors shame.
Still shall that banner stainless float,
As when in joy and pride unfurl' d.
Millions of hearts its color-suard.
The hope of Freedom through the world.

The moment a man parts with mora

The moment man parts with moral
independence the moment he judges of
duty, not from the inward voice, but from
the interest and will of a party, the mo-
ment he commits himself to a leader or a
body and wlnks at evil because divisions
woald injure the cause the moment he
shakes off his particular responsibility be-
cause he is but one thousand, or a mil
lion by whom the evil is done-that mo-
ment he parts from his moral power. He
is shorn of the energy of single-hearted
faith in the right and the true. He hopes
from mans policy what nothing but 10y
atty to God can accomplish. He substi-
tutes coarse weapons forged by mans wis
dom, for celestial power.-Channin9.

Mans Duty to Woman.

Let him learn to be grateful to woman
for this undoubted achievement of her sex
that it is she who has kept Christendom
from lapsing into barbarism- mercy
aud truth from being utterly overcome
by those two greedy monsters-money
and war Let him be grateful to this,
that almost every soul that has led for
ward or lifted up the race has been fur
nished for each nobler deed and inspired
with each patriotic and holy inspiration,
by the retiring fortitude of some Spartan
some Christian mother Moses, the de-
liverer of his people, drawn out of the
Nile by the kings daughter, some one has
limited, is symbol of the way that wo-
mans better instinct always outwit the di-
plomacy of man. Let him cheerfully re-
member, that althoughitis it is he who achieves
enterprises in public, it is the nerve
and sensibility of woman that arm the
mind and infame the soul in private life.
Everywhere a man executes the perform
ance, BUT woman trains the man.
