Behold, how bril- sht tho future shines
When Freedom sit, benea.h her vines,
And finds within the peaceful shade
None to moles; or make afraid;
Rejoicing to reclaim the home
From which she was compelled to roam,
And With her friends, To wal, the day
That would restore her rizhtful sway
Now come her Israel host TO bless
Who should their heritage passes;
Whentwo years more have run their round
Within this home they will be found
Tho Rulers who now hold their right,
Will have TO take their farewell flight.
In eighteen hundred siIty-see
The glorious triumph Of the free.
Democracy has lost its fame
And lives alone upon q .ars
That once stood high among the ffss-
Nov, low in depths Of slavery,
More joyful it ha. lost its reign
And freedom will her own regain.
No more to lessen or TO decline,
Till Unions Stars shall cease to shine
And never may they lose a ray
To sadden any New Years day,
Hencforth the Governmental plan
or right will belRepubican;
And in the wiser change and choice
The people will again rejoice
To 6nd the time is drawing nigh
Which they have watched with anxious eye,
When slav'ry's blighting curse shall fail
And Freedoms blessing will prevail;
When Justice can restrain the band
or robbers who infest the land,
And Fillibust'ring Walkers find
No ties but chains their limbs to bind;
No Halls of State or conquer'd thrones
But what are made Of stocks and stones;'
No rest but what the wicked have
A troubled conscence ce or the grave.
When men will scorn to offer bribes
