The national Republican., 1869-06-11


Vote mol and the white-wipsed angel peace
ShAll dwell In the drunkard's home;
Aud beams OF temper inee, truth and light
Dbpel the withering gloom.
VOTE yes aud tho eare.worn heart will break,
The pale lip hush its prayeri
Tho wretched drunkard downward haste
To realms OF dark despair.
Vote no and the mothers heart Will leap,
The SISTERS eye be dry,
The poor inetrfate clasp his hands,
Ard raise his voice on high.
Obi Then, by the life which God hath given,
By your powers to curse or bless,
BY your fears Of hell and your hopes OF heaven,
Lot not thy vote be yes.
BY tho cherished hearts bitter wrong,
BY the spirits deathless woe
In name oil God and the name Of man,
Let every vote be no.
