into the reyelry Of the rank and le while the field

overwhelmed each other with chronicles Of the battle.

Made glorious summer by this snn OF York;
In the deep bosom OF the Eurisd
As the day wore on the cOnquer0rs began to look
after tho routed foes and watch them as they CO

parties Scouts were thrown out to observe the
secret movements In the Sherif's ONCE, and other
reconnoNrlng detachments secured the city in
search Of the demorallzed enemy; but nothing
was discovered except dsheartened opponents

many days had talked charter with wagging heads
and bit their thumbs at their superors. c0oed softly
WI n the reiolclnQs that surrounded them and

nope, the sure removal Of the faithful. The
atmosphere OF the City Hall and Court House was
fragrant WIN gntniing ior the Gay q compromise

watcaword OF democracy, Remember thy friends
aud forget tnine enemies was displayed on the
outer walls, and every one felt that this Waterloo OF
the coalition could have no other result than the
utter destruction OF all foes to the triumphant
dynasty.
