Union Cheer and Rebel Yell.

Editor National Tribune: I have al
ways heard and seen the battle cry of
the Southern army spoken of as the
rebel ye1l." Was this yell different
from the battle cry of the Union army?
Mr.. McElroy in one of his writings COM
pares the ''shrill rebel yelP' with the
'hoarse cheer" of the men from the
North. l believe there is a difference.
How about it? My father is an old SOL
dier, and he claims there is no differ
ence in the yells; that when the rebels
yelled it was a rebel yell, and when the
Yankees yelled it was Yankee yell

Abraham Lincoln.

(By Hattie Ferris Winter, Burlington,
Iowa.
Down in the sunny Southland
On February morn,
Far from the din of cities.
A king of the earth was born.
Twas in no stately mansion,
No kingly hall or fair.
Mid scenes of gilded splendor
And hangings rich and rare.
But in a lowIy cabin
OF logs from the wildwood near,
The first faint wall of a hero
Fell on his mothers ear.
But the world moved on. unheeding;
No trumpet proclaimed his birth.
And no one knew that a leader
Had that day come to earth.
A leader? Aye, more than leader;
He stands in his strength so grand,
For the veal or woe of a Nation
He holds in his strong right hand.
And all the burden of sorrow,
OF all the years that roll
Over slave-cursed country
Seems resting on his soul.
For see, in his eyes, so tender,
An infinite sadness lies,
AS he hears from the land that bore
him
The pitiful means and cries
That rise from the hearts of bondmen
All over that sun-kiSSed land,
And his heart nigh breaks with the
burden,
Till he stretches forth his hand.
With all of his heart behind it,
And with one quick stroke of his pen,
He has broken the shachles forever
From the limbs of a million men.
Then. as king they crowned him
With the love of a people free,
Wherever the starry banner
Waves over land or sea.
Then write the names of your heroes
In letters of flame, each one,
And among them the name of Llneoib
Will shine as the MONDAY sun.
AS long as stories OF valor
Are uttered by tongue or pen,
AS long as the love of freedom
Lives in the hearts of men.
