HOW LONG, LORD?

How long, Lord? we raise our cry to Thee,
From out the dust where bleeding hearts are
strewn;
How long shall this wrung prayer of agony,
Go up responseess to Thy mercy's throne?
How long, o Lord? how long shall dread alarms
The din of battling hosts, the lannon's roar,
The tramp of furious steeds and clang Of arms
Like a black tempest stride from shore to shore?
How long shall brother on his brother man
Leap, like wild beast of the forest lair;
With bloody clutch proclaim the deadly ban,
And fill with demon shouts the trembling air?
How long shall direful hates remorseless sway
Rage rampant through the land with purpose
fell
Order and law O'erturn-the nation stay
And light her affairs with the Gres of hell?
How long? oh, heritage so richly blest
By Gods good gifts, that wants should be I'M
known.
Shall thy fair soil by migrate sons be priest
And graves of martyrs still be thickly sown?
How long ere Peace, her snow-white wings shall
Our land from hither to remotest shore;
Till hearts that bleed and break. and eyes that
weep
Ger wars dark train of ills, are known no
more?
How long? o Christ, we supplicate of Thee?
BY Thy great love. by Thy endurance strong;
By prayer, an | cross. and dying agony
And glorious triumph over wrong
Not long. 0 Christ! not Ion .!-.N. y. Express.

Our preaching batteries at Pulaski were
nearly a mile from the work, yet they made
q practicable breach, IN y wall previously
deemed impreguable, in the course OF thlr'y
hours. This was done by judiclous CON,
binetion of riaed guns, carrying 30 ana 4o
pound shot, aud very heavy Colum oiads.-
The former as is well described IN Com
mander Rodgers report, bored their way
into the wall. while the latter coming into

TIE Americans have no, been lighting peo
ple for many years. The Mexican war was
q diversion, and did not excite the people al
large. Not since 1912 has the whole popu
lar mind been directed to military pursuits
No people in the world had less knowledge
Of real warfare, or less general acquain
taince with the practical business of fight
ing, than we had when this wretched re-
bellion forced tho sword into our
hands. In the course of year, however,
we have revolutionized gunnery, naval
architecture, and forti6caton, and have
raised an army which is admitted by com
petent foreign judges to be without an
equal in the world
1t is to be hoped that, after the suppress
sion of the rebellion, our foreign friends will
permit us to convert our sword once more
into pruning hook Bnt if not, the ex
perieDce of our present troubles will prob.
ably enable us to effect some important
changes in the map of the world.
