YEARS AGONE.
A Relic ofthe Days Of Ante Beilum.
Extracts from Q johnson County
Paper Of 1850.

We have before ~ . time-stained sheet,
entitled the Weekly Union. published At
Warrensburg. by c. A. 4 J. H. Middleton.
II is dated Wednesday. August 81, 1859,
and ia contents, some Of item, are quite
interesting - compared With the present
age. Old laws, habits and landmarks long
since forgotten. are brought to recollection.
and the deeds Of the day day peculiarly
prejudiced in this section-have charm
about them that are worth republication.
Upon the 6rst page the FIRST column Is
very warlike. and commences With poetic
appeal, as follows:
To ARMS. TO ARMS.
The following lines were written in the
year 1856, by q citizen OF this county, du-
ring the Kansas troubles, for the Border
7inaes We republish them nov, by re-
quest. and because We think they are appro-
pirate for the present time. "a our State ~
again threatened invasion by maraudcrs Of
Kansas Territory:
Sons Of the South, awake! awake.
The foe IL at the gate
The midnight murderer walks abroad,
The assassin lies in wait;
And must We wriihe beneath the wrong?
Our sufIerance has been all too long.
The moons pale beams ON the rife CLEANS,
The death-shot singeth loud,
And the brave are hurl'd to sudden death,
To sleep without shroud;
And, on the wind, there comes n sound
Of households on the trampled ground.
There are some things We cannot bear,
Bounds that no man may crO-s;
Rights hat ve yield rot while we live,
For life we're wore than dross;
When the oppressoris venal hand
Works mischief thro' the groaning land.
Then gather We who love your native land
Sweep on, like Ocesns wave,
March Toward, watchful Of your rights;
Yet, pause awhile, ye brave,
And not until all else be tried,
Away into the conflict ride.
The Kissing ball-the gasp OF death
The ceasing Of the startled brain,
Those left To live. Who long to die.
| Wounded and blood stand in their pain
The widows vail and orphans cry
Drowning the shou: Of victory.
Such are the scenes that glorious war
Must ever With il bring,
Though pomp, and pride. and panoply
Do sometimes, round il fling
4 wild romance, ~ war-steeds prance
And ranks to the Wild charge advance.
But, rather than to suffer wrong;
To death defend the right;
Fling tn the breeze our banner broad,
Let the steal CLEAN blue and bright
Then voc To the traitor and the knave,
And peace to everv crimsond grave,
Where sleep the brave who fighting fell
For the land and laws they lov'd 80 veil.
