OUR UNION.



The blood that Aowed at Lexington,
And crimson8d Lake Champaign
Streams still along The Southern Hul'
And by the Lakes Of Maine
IL flows In veins that swell above
Pacifc's golden sand,
And throbs Ia hearts that love and grieyo
BY dark Atlantc's strand.
IL binds fin one vast brotherhood,
The tupper Of the West
With men whose cities glass themaolves
In Erie's Classic breast.
And those to whom September brings
The freaide social hours,
with those who see Defenders brow
Enwrsathed with gorgeous flowers.
From where Columbia laughing greelu
The smiling Western waves
TO where Potomac signs beside
A patriot hero's graves
And from tho streaming everglades
To Huron's lordly Aood'
The glory Of a Nations Past
Thrills through a kindred blood.
Wherever Arnod's tale istold,
II dives the cheek with shame,
But plows with pride at Bunker's Hill,
Or Moutris's wilder fame;
Or whersoe'er above the fray
The Star Of Empire CLEANS
Upon the deck, or Ger the dust,
IL pours q common stream.
Il Is a sacred legacy
Ye never can dividei
Nor take from village urchin,
Or the youth Of city pride;
Nor the hunters white haired children,
WHO iud a fruitful home
Where nomeless lakes are sparkling
And where louey rivers roam.
Green drew his sword at Eulaw,
And bleeding Southern feet
Trod their march across the Delaware,
Amid the snow and sleet;
A nd 10! upon the parchment,
Where the natal record Shines
The burning page Of Jefferson
Bears Fraukln's Calmer lines.
Could ye divide that record bright,
Or tear the names apart,
That ersl we're written boldly there,
With plight Of hand aud hearth
Could We erase Hancock's name,
Fen with the sabre's edge,
Or blot out with fraiernal blood,
A Carroll's double pledgel
Saw, can the South sell out her share
or Bunker's hOary heightl
Or can the North give up her boast
CT Yorktown's closing fght7
Could ys divide with equal hands
A heritage Of graves,
Or rend On twain the Starry flag
That DER them proudly waves2
Could ye cast lots for Venon's soil,
Or chatter mid the gloom,
That hangs its solemn folds about
Your common Fathers tomb2
Or could you meet around bis grave,
As frutricidul foes,
And wake your burning curses
Der his pure and calm repose2
Ys dare not Is the AlIeghany's
Thundcr-toHed decree;
IT'S echoed where Nevada guards
The blue and tranquil sea-
Where iropic waves delighted clasp
Our howery Southern shore,
And where from out her mountain-gates,
Nebraska's waters roar.

SINGULAR LIFE PREsERvER.-A re-
ligious gentleman informs us that a shil-
ling Testament purchased in New Or
leans previous to the Mexican war, not
only saved the life of the possessor, but
was the means Of saving his soul 1t
was in this way: A young Illinois girl
purchased a small Testament for four
dozen eggs, at 3 cts. per dozen When
her brother was about to start for Mexi-
co, as a volunteer, she put it into his
vest pocket There it remained, wrap
ped in the same paper and in the same
pocket, until the battle of Buena Vista,
when the wearer received a wound
through the Testament, which broke the
force of the bullot, which lodged in his
breast and sent him to the hospital
There, he read his book, and has since
turned out a missionary preacher.
