THE OLD CANOE,
BY EMILY D. PAGE.


When the rocks are gray, aud the shore is steel
And the waters below look dark and deep;
Where the rugged pine in its lonely pride,
Leans gloomily over the murky tide;
Where the reeds and rushes are long and rank;
And the weeds grew thick on the winding banl
Where the shadows heavy the whole day thro'
Lies at its moorngs tho old canoe.
The useless paddles are idly dropped,
Like a sea-bird's wing that tho storm has loppe
And crossed on the raising, one DER one,
Like the folded hands when tho work is done,
While busily back and forth between,
The spider stretches his silvcry screen
And the solemn owl, with his dull ''too hoo"
Settles down on the side Of the old canoe.
The stern half sunk iu the Shiny wave
Rots slowly away in its living grave, ID
And the green moss crceps DER its dull decay;
IIiding the mouldering dust away,
Like the hand that plants DER the tomb flower
Or the ivy that mantles the falling tower;
While many blossom of lovelicst hue
Springs up Ger tho stern of the old canoe
The currontlcss waters are deep and still
But the light wind plays with the boat at will,
And lazily in and out again,
II floats the length Of its rusty chain,
Like tho weary march of the hands Of time,
That meet and part at the noontide chime,
And the shore is kissed at each turn anew,
BY the dripping bow Of the old canoe
o, many time, with careless hand;
have pushed it away from the pebby strand;
And paddled it down where the stream runs quick,
Where the whirls are wild and the eddics are
thick,
And laughed as leaned DER the rocking side,
And looked below in the broken tide
To see that the face and boats were two,
That were mirrored back from the old canoe
But now rs lean DER the crumbling side,
And look below in the sluggish tide,
The face that see there is graver grown,
And the laugh that hear has a soberer tone,
And the hands that lent to tholight sliG wings,
Have grown familiar with sterner things,
But love to think Of the hours that flow
As rocked where the whils their white spray
threw,
Ere the blossoms waved, or the groen grass grew
Der the mouldering stern Of the old canoe.

Listen young heroes! your country is calng
Time strikes the hour for tho brave and the true
Nor while the foremost are and fighting falling.
Fill up the ranks that have opened for you
You whom the fathers made free and defended,
Stain not The scroll that emblazons their fame!
You whose fair heritage spotless descended,
Leave not your chilsren birthrght of shame!
Stay not for questions while Freedom stands
gasping
Wait not till Honor lies wrapped in his pail
Brief the lips me sting be, swift the hands
clasping-
"of for the wars is enough for them all
Break from tho arms that would fondly caress you
Harkl It's the bugle blast! sabres are drawn
Mothers shall pray for you fathers shall bless you,
Maidcns shall wecpfor you when you are gonel
Never or now cries the blood Of nation
Poured on the turf where the red rose should
bloom
Now is the day and the hour of salvation;
Never or now peals the trumpet of doom!
Never or now roars the hoarsc-throated cannon
Through the black canopy blotting the skies;
Never or now flaps the shell blasted pennon
Ger tho deep ooze whore the Cumberland lies
From the foul dens whore our brothers arc dying,
Aliens and foes in the land Of their birth;
From tho rank swamps whore martyrs arc
lying,
Pleading in vain for handful Of earth.
From the hot plains where they perish
outnumbered
Furowed and ridged with the battle fields plow,
Comes the loud summons, TOO long you have
slumborod,
Hear the last angel-trump-ncvoro or now!

such discharge implies that there wai

him, and now he is "thrust out privily.'
Even under the Roman domination,
the apostle could refuse to except
such a liberation as this; but no oppor-

have been afforded Gen. Stone. Ap.

to the shelter of his gunboats at West
over. Since then lethargy as deep al
that which pervaded the army and th'
country after Manassas seems gradual
y settling down upon US. We are ap
parently waiting for the enemy to re
cruit his exhausted strength and tC
come forth in the cool weather, that
will be upon us in the next sixty days
BY that time his regiments will al
be filed up, and we shall be assalled by
500, 900 additional troops We shall al
least escape the chance of attacking him
before he is ready. We are giving him
all the time he can desire. lie can new.
er reproacb us with pressing him when
he is not prepared What the conse-
qurnces will be it is not worth while to
anticipate, We saw what they were
last year.
1t is fated, it seems that we are new.
er to reap the fruits of any victory, no
matter how decisive. Manassas was
followed by the aband onment of nearly
half of Virginia. Shiloah was follow.
ed by the entire loss of the Mississippi
and the fall of New Orleans. What is
to follow the victories around Richmond
we cannot imagine. We have not much
more TO give in, unless we mean To
abandon Virginia altogether.
The people of this country ought to

too late We are rapidly giving way to
the same delusior which lulled our peo-
pie into security last year, while the
enemy were inlistlng and training 700.
600 men; and building and preparing
three hundred vessels of war We are
lulled by precisely the same species of
delusion.
We arc still told that England is no.
only about To recognize our existence,
but to take up arms in our behalf, as if
it were not plain that she not only has
no intention of doing so but that
France would long since have done it
had she not interfered to prevent il,
we are told that the North are discour.
aged, precisely as we were told after
Manassas, that she could not raise men
for the further rosecution of the war.
We listen to the song of the syren.-
We suffer the warm months, when the
Yankees, by the mere force of climate,
are unable to prosecute their designs,
to pass UNDECIDED over our heads. We
snail H0t be awakened until the first
white frost, when we shall be aroused
by the laundering tread of 100000
soldiers, come to reinforce those whom
we have already beaten, and whom we
leave TO receive the expected succor
before they again take the field.
For US the lessons of the past have no
instruction; to US reverse and suffering
lre as though they had never occurred
We are sleeping the sleep of Manassas,
and it seems as though nothing can
break its chain. -......
