of their "God.iear,ng" protectors.
And now, when after twelve years
Of oppression and robbery, instiga-

arm OF the Federal government,
patient, suffering Southern blood,
instead of succumbing to the COW.

to crush it, has risen IN triumphant
supremacy over carpet'bag rule,
and 10 restoring peace and pros

allowed to resume that station,
which is part Of our blrthright!
