The fire soon ceased to burn; To sin and moil and worldly toll The worshipers return

 The fire soon ceased to burn;
 To sin and moil and worldly toll The worshipers return
 Back to its well-worn channels The tide of life was roll'd,
 Where greed and gain are ministers, Where the God is yellow gold. XV
 Mid cannon fring-voices shouting 4 din like that of Babel
 Afr or near, you naught could hear But-"The Atlantic cable:" Spasmodic speeches-platitudes- Vain words constant drizzle- It proved to be, like Danley's race | A miserable fzzle. But let the dead past bury it's numbers dead, The future lies all gloomily before us; | Prepare armor for the conflict dread | Make ready for the storm when it bursts o'er us | The time is past to wiring the hands and sigh See, how the clouds roll up the northern sky! XVII. l Twas ever thus, in every age and cline, Fanaticism gathered to head, Nor reason, arguments, or lapse of time, | Could check it's progress or impede it's tread: | It must be met and conquered, and the brunt | Of battle borne with an unbroken front. XVIII | In that great contest, speedily approaching, The South must be united or we fall; | Aggression's waves, so steadily encroaching, l Must be rol'd back, or else we perish all:- 1 If party feuds or jealousies divide us, Who can foretell the fate that may betide us7 XIX.
 Some, in the South have tried to give a reason For sympathizing with our victor foes | Let them look to it-ere long twill be treason, | And their lov'd allies may be met with blows | When that hour comes these gentry yet may find l They cannot stand and stab us from behind XIX | In democratic hearts and hands are placed | The hopes of millions living and to be- 1 A foe more dangerous never faced
 The stakes are honor, life and liberty 1 Oh, let us then be faithful to the trust,
 And once again our foes shall bite the dust. XXI.
 In summers heat and winters cold | The carrier came to your door Now do not deem him pert or bold If he should ask, that, from the store
 Of wealth that's yours, that you should give
 The customary gift, for here
 He wishes that you long may live, And see full many happy year.

Another year has gone-another come
 To age and youth or those in manhood's prime; Another swing of the grand pendulum
 Another beat of the great pulse of time. year. space of time to some most wide
 And full of woe-to others but span, Claspei with a zone of joy-where the hours, tied
 With rosy bands, swiftly and gladly ran. How much of life and death, of joy and woe,
 Of good and i'll, love, hatred, hope and fear; The surging waves of life, their ebb and flow,
 Can be compressd in that one word-a year! The year, now gone, had many grave event,
 Which has been chroncl'd-I now relate, In other metre, the most prominent
 In Anno Domini, eighteen, fifty eight. The Crimean war was ended by
 Muzzling the polar bear; Englan and France, with rested lance,
 The spells of vict'ry share Then follow august congresses,
 Diplomacy and debate, Where they settle who shall be the heirs
 To "the sick mans'' estate Lo! in the East lurid light What strife the ear alarms? From living graves, million slaves, Start up, at once, to arms. Down-trodden India bursts the chains
 That, for hundred years, Binding and fett'ring every limb,
 Were bathed in blood and tears Alas! the waves break on the shore
 And there dash into foam The sullen rock abides the shock,
 And breaks them as they come: Not yet-not yet. The Hindoo falls,
 And lost is freedoms fight, And still, as for a century, There might doth make the right. Even while on far India's shore
 New letters now they forge, In Chinese seas, floats on the breeze, The banner of Saint George! So conquering, grasping, marching on
 Relentlessly as fate, England more powerful becomes,
 More terrible and great. "The nephew of his uncle' sits
 Yet on the Galic throne; Sagacious, bold, cautious and cold,
 His aims are all unknown; The assassin's blow fails of it's end
 Rebellion's voice is hushed, And the hopes of Freedoms votares Thus, for a while, are crushed. And nearer home, poor Mexico Still bleeds at every pore; Each petty chief, daring thief, Who SCOUTS the county OCT. The sthmus still affords theme Of discourse for each talker,- While Nicaragua's shores are stormed By fllibuster Walker. At home, the year now past, brought forth
 Events in quick succession Now fast. HOW slow, they come and go,
 Like figures in procession, While through the storm the Ship of State, (Seas threat ming to O'erw helm,) Rode proudly on, past reef and rock,
 Buchanan at the helm.
 XII Britain gives up the right of search; Kansas has ceased to bleed, And Brigham Young's unruly tongue For peace has learn'd to plead. Dictator Lopez taught, no more To bully and to hector; The Florida war brought to close, Thanks to Elias Rector. XIII Amen the great revival came, Like storm wind o'er the land, When sobs and tears-when groans and prayers, Were heard on ev'ry hand When young and old the rich and poor, Did but one impulse own, And hast ned to the house of prayer To kneel before Gods throne.
