5ALMY PEACE.

When all the nations have dlsarm' cd and thrown their swords away, and We no longer are alarmed by threats ot fiery fray, we ought to be ! happy lot, for We insist that Peace, and Peace alone, will hit the spot, and make our troubles cease. So let us sing of balmy Peace, and raise u joyous din, and keep on singing till the p'lice come up and run us in. But sometimes when the stars swing low, and l sit down to dream upon the blessings that will flow from Peace, as in stream, a Dire Fore uodtng comes along, and anchors in my breast, and from my heart the glad sweet song of Peace goes galley west. For when We shed our swords and guns we'll wrangle just the same; and of the powers the stronger ones will climb the weaker's frame; then there will be no cannon's shock, To hosts of armed galoots; but we hust just depend on talk to settle our disputes. Where now our armies guard the land, and march to beat Of Grum, a host of lawyer sharps will stand and talk us blind and dumb. Ere this goes on for many suns we'll know that Peace is punk; we'll rustic rp the swords and guns, and such discarded junk.-Wslt Mason.
