THE GOLDEN YEAR.

We sleep and wake and sleep, but all thipes
The sun flies forward to his brother sum,
The dark earth follows wheeled in her ellipse.
And human things returning on themselves
Move onward, leading up the golden year.
All, though the times when some new thought
can bud
Are but as poets seasons when they flower,
Yet seas that daily gain upon the shore
Have ebb and flow conditioning their march,
And slow and sure comes up the golden year
When wealth no more shall rest in mounded
But smit with freer light shall slowly melt
In many streams to fatten lower lands,
And light shall spread. and man be liker man
Through all the seasons of the golden year.
Shall eagles not be eagles? wrens be wreus?
If all the world were falcons, what of that?
The wonder Of the eagle were the less,
But he not less the eaSle. Happy days
Roll onward leading up the golden year.
Fly happy, happy sails, and bear the Press,
Fly happy with the mission Of the Cross; y
Knit land to land, and blowing heavenward,
With silks, and fruits, and spices, clear of toll,
Enrich the markets of the golden year.
But we grow old. All! when shall all mems
stt good t.sazy l4a5ssc.EN a III
Be each mans rule, and universal peace
Lie like q shaft of light across the land,
And like q lane Of beams athwart the sea,
Through all the circle Of the golden year?

Let our people take warning in time
Let them take it for granted Tint Lincoln
has, or will very soon get, MI the men he
has called for, and prepare for the emer-
gcncy. 1t is within the power Of the
South to put and keep in the field as large
force US the North can spare, and it is
not only the part Of wisdom, but the dc
tate of both patriotism and duty to do It,
and that without delay. Our armies (the
rebsls) are now on the march to the Ohio
river, and they should be cheered, aided
and strengthened as they go. May God
speed and favor them.
II Mississippi, Alabama and Tennessee
would remove the theatre of war from
their borders. let their sons swell our

the enemy. and very soon We shall have
an oyerpowering invincible force in the
field, enabled to bid defiance to the hire
