THE FIRST POET OF THE CAMPAIGN.

The following campaign song was com
,osed last evening beiwen the hours of
ind 10 O'Clock, By oae of the young Repab
leans o. the city, which is an evidence o
what the name OF Harrison can inspire
'oung man to do on short notice. He is
the first poet of the campaign:
BEN HARRISON, MY BOY. BEN.
Ben Harrison, my boy, Ben,
Tie people call for you.
You've always been their friend, Ben,
And now you'll find them true.
From eastern mountain range, Ben,
And orient ocean side,
The current rolls for you, Ben,
\ mighty, rushing tide.
1t sweeps the southern swamps. Ben,
1t sweeps DER northern plains,
And where the prairies swell, Ben,
a swifter movement gains.
Where Brazos rolls its floods, Ben,
Where Columbia downward leaps.
To the breakers on Pacifc's shore,
Resistlessly it sweeps.
Ben Harrison, my boy, Ben.
When the Bootheel nation thought,
To bluff you from your stand, Ben,
a lesson it was taught,
And Chill tried it next. Ben,
With many boast and brag.
That they could whip the yankee, Ben,
And rend his Haunting flag.
You taught them what it meant, Ben.
T. insult the Union blue.
And made them, ere you stopped, Ben,
Their recklessness to rue.
The British lions roar, Ben.
Disturbed you not bit
His angry threatenings showed, Ben.
Only that he was hit.
Ben Harrison, my boy. Ben,
The call for boys in blue,
On southern battle plains, Ben,
To meet rebeliions crew,
Found you with ready hand, Ben,
And heart to do and dare,
To save the Nations life, Ben,
As far as any there.
Ben Harrison, my boy, Ben.
You've always stood for right,
And in its truthful cause, Ben,
Devoted your full might.
No falsehood on your lips, Ben,
No fear within your heart,
But God has given you, Ben,
To act a true mans part.
Ben Harrison, my boy, Ben.
You lead us once again,
Hold high the grand old banner, Ben,-
IT'S always sure to win
And Under it we'll rally. Ben,
And round it make our fight,
Till victory shall crown it. Ben,
With heavens blessing light.
