THE TRUCELESS WAR.
(For The Oolored American }

Wrong is weakest when its greatest.
And is closest to its grave
When it seemeth to be strongest
And essayeth to be brave.
In the struggle er in progress.
'Twix those led by Wrong or Right,
Those of Error are the favored
With the means Of earthly might.
On their side stands potent ucre,
With its chains upon Earths grea
With its EIittering padlocks fastened
On the lips of Church and State.
Thus il was when Atoms Lovejoy
From the ante room of Time
Strobe forth on the stage of action,
Shoutin-, Slavery is a crimei
Thus, when Brown of Os'wattomie
Sealed his lips and shed his SOUL
Men of Lucre and of Learning
Wrote him. Fool" i. History's scroll
But twas Brown who followed Lcvejoy;
Twas their death that did inspire
Tongues, which tipped with fame celestial,
Set ;he shining South on fire.
Now we face its pride and prejudice,
Which deny our rights as Men;
Sanctitying all injustice
By the Scriptures of the skin:
BY which kind of Inspiration
White becomes the holy hue
And Earths Learning, backed by Lucre,
Proves such Scriptures just and true.
Ever thus this v ar of Ages
Has been waged 'twix Right and Wrong:
Right, the victor, seemed the weaker;
Wrong, the vanquished' seemed the strong
