GOOD CITIZENSHIP

1t is now no more that federation is spoken
of as if it was by the indulgence of one class
of people that another enjoyed the exercise Of
their inherent rights. The government of the
United States which gives to bigotry no sane
ton, requires only that they who live under
its protection should demean themselves as
good citizens, in giving it all occasions their
effectual support.
GEORGE WASHINGTON, from a
speech in which he promised re-
ligious freedom to a Hebrew con-
gregation in Newport, R. l., in 700.

A SOLDIERS DREAM

A soldiers dream is always gay.
Silly little things of a future day.
A little white castle up on hill.
The country he loves, once more in peace.
With no fears of foreign beast. .
With the flag of the nation, waving as before
AS proud citizens. salute from below.
