A WAR SONG.

To armsl TO armsl the eagle screams,
The bugle sounds the call;
The roar of battles on the breeze
Our gallant navy ploughs the seas
We're ready--one and all
A Spartan spirit fills the land,
And mounts upon the gale;
Our flying squadrons furious ride
Upon the ocean, deep and wide
Surcharged with iron hall
The Stars and Stripes our orifamme--
The Maine--our battle cry;
Wen swift avenge our shipmates' death
Spain-execrate at every breath
And figh! her till we die.
Well arbitrate with cannon balls,
Teach rapine to refrain;
O'erturn by force of arms the wrong
In God our trust in justice, strong
Till liberty obtainl
Well double. shot each believing gun,
And tinge the ocean red;
Rain down upon SPANS Wanted feet
A n avalanche of iron sleet--
And pave their decks with dead.
As bravely speed our gallant tars,
Across the raging sea;
Wen charge upon the Spanish main
Annihilate the hordes Of Spain
And set poor Cuba free.
