WAR sounded loud bis trumpet blast,
That shook the world from East to West;
The South in gray, the North in blue,
Left on the field tho brave tho best.
Hate famed tho flame aud stirred the hesrt,-
The voice OF Peace was hushcd,
The shock of battle rent the alr,
And steel to steel together rushed:
The Gray fought no5iy to the last,
And then her banner iurcd
Before the Blue her sun went down,
But rose upon brighter world.
The vauquished and victorious hosts,
Like soldiers true had met
The Blue stretched to tho Gray her hand,
And bade all wrongs forget
X X 4 y
A mournful dirgo comes from the sunny South.
And mutll,d bells ring out upon tho air;
Across tho harp of life the Masters huger9
sweep.
And smiug Hope gives way TO blank
Despair.
The streets, and fields, and oiang2 groves,
Through which once relied the tide OF he,
Arc now deserted, withcred, dead,
Aud brightest days is turned to darkest
night.
Foes change to friends, and hate to love,
When PHYS pleading voice is heard;
And all arc bound by brotherhood,
When human hearts are deeply stirred.
Oh stricken South thy suierines CAUSE
The nations heart for thee to bleed;
The generous North, the sister West,
Ofcvery name, Of every creed
Oh God in mercy send thy frost,
Though natures doom is sealed;
I'm wrath remember not our slns,
But pray Thy love reveal.
