dearest frieuds 50 wrong. ...
We are cominsl we are coming, dear Val
landigham,
To bring our patriot exile home;
Aud we're motley band of brothers, de-
flying Uncle Sam.
As yol have done before us, when stand
ing all alone.
Our journey seems long one, lying far
toward the North,
Where oft has fled the negro, as the stars
but dinlIy shone;
But freedom from :. "despot'--the "cus-
Sec'cSt on earth,
Demands the sa rilice, to bring our exile
home.
We are coming, dearest Val with "But-
tcruuts' and all,
To bring our dearest exile, to freedom 5
holy soil,
And we've sworn to stand beside thee
brapos one and all,
And bring you to Ohio, when elected in
the fall.
We love our party, Val, and hate the pow
ers lhst be,
Because they sent our dearest exile, to
Canada by sea
All now in wrath we've sworn, to let our
SOaHra brethren see,
How we wIIi fight old Lincoln, 50 they
may get be free. ...
Wo're coming dearest Val, a Aaagry
thouaand strong;
Our blaye commander, Pugh. is leading
us along
Free speech and press we make our con
slant song,
And cur voices chime, like And! S morn
ing gony
Our army is political, with many jadel
mays,
Aodlhcreroro, moves but slowly, over alb
oiitou crags!
Oar baggage train is lengthy, with hqaors
in the rear,
And many of the boys seem, to hold il
very dear.
Our guns arc rather rusty, which w
could not avoid,
or Lincoln's torAaL Cabinet cannot boast
i loyd;
Bat our mission being peaceful, though
pai4tul yet to us;
We hope to get along, and see no aboli
ton, settlers cuSS.
Oh, we're brave and noble bsnd--of
suckers eve,y one.
And when the bullets fly, oh, mighty,
how we'il run
And Ike our dearest exic-bcfore corpse
weW lay;
Wen run to gain our freedom, to the
flag o.! Canada.
Wyandol's Captain is a lad, brave as ever
bore commission,
And who stood with Dressed, on his trea
son resolutions,
OF soas and daughters he has none. but
acts upon conditions,
That the South and Jlf. must always
have their darkey institutions.
We're coming Vul,, and soon you'll hear
our Corporm shout,
"Let aboliIionisls and niggers fight the
nations battles out
He is speaker, brave, but short and rath-
er slender,
Yet, of our new Democracy, mighW
strong defender.
Aud with us too, are Bill and Dave, and
Hank and braver Fred
Who, when balls flew thick, have Of the
blue-coats led, u
yet their mouths wide open, as
of yore they did,
to be fed, from out the County
Crib.
We're coming, dearest Val.--the lame,
the halt and blind,
In accordance with the plan, by Pugh SO
well Designed
And "woe to Black Republicans, with
houses, houks and herds,
For these were, when here, our brave
commanders words. M rH
But "look little out" Val. when you
hear our piekets shout,
For Old Abe. with his army, Val. may
turn us all about; d .. ..-a...l,
A nd vet our dearest exile, be left to win
, ter out, Eah ra5-rg
Near where. our valorous fathers, long
since, the red-coats fought.
But we're coming, dearest Val. if the lec-
don goes off right; |
And we'll bring you back, Val, or have
mighty fight.
