Home from the War"
LIZZIE BAsrox
Prom hardship, priyation, and danger he's come,
And merriment once more is gladdening our home;
Long, long have We waited and counted the days
Until we grew sad at the weary delays.
We saw in the list Of the wounded his name,
And he had passed unscathsd through the flame
And carnage of battle; for in the fierce strife
He gave Ills right arm, though he lost not his life
One night as the shadows of evening fell fast,
We watched for the co ach that wont to 90 past
And wondering yet glad at the happy surprise,
We greeted the light Of his laughing blue eyes.
His smiles brought the sunlight again to hearth,
And sorrow stole out at the coming of ninth;
Yet mid our rejoicing could not but grieve
When We saw that our darling had one empty sleeve.
For love he had given so earth-stained to Him,
Which oft In temptation grew feeble and dim,
And love for flag which had aerer grown cold
The Lord will repay him a thousand fold.
He's oome.-but oh, let amid all our joy
Forget the hand that has guided our boy,
But render thanks with deep gratitude. for
Our God bath protected him, -'home from the war"

The Election. Lincoln has carried all the
States except three or four; his majority must
be immense, and the. fighting candidate of the
Peace Convention is most terribly beaten. It is
evident that the advocates of peace, the men who
composed the Chicago Convention. could not
vote for Mcclellan, after reading his letter of
acceptance.
