A DEMOCRATIC SONG.
We transcribe the following stirring and pa
tiotic song front an gastern exchange. - It
w a tt l es the true spirit of poetry and the, pUre
1 / 4
p r i n ciples of democrac .. It is a gom which
will be admired by eve reactor: There are
thousands of hearts in is State which will
opoad to the sentiments of this , song: .
{}bat means the proud triumphal scenes,
The shout and cannon's roar—
'rho long hazzas that proudly swell
Along New England's shorel
The lofty hills take up the sound,i, •
And from their granite heights ". -..
Are streamin wide o'er land and tide,
Her countl g ess beacon lights. . - .
but a dream of that which rocks.
The nation far and near
013d sounds of joy and revelry
Fall ever on tho car:
A starry banner meets the shy,
From evpry village dome '
• -
While hearts are light, and hearths are bright
Within each happy home.
Are they tharmarch at midnight hour
With torch and trump in hand,
Returning from the battle field—
A brave, victorious band .?
A* Cum: the migiz shouts that r i so
Abode a fellow foe, -
When tyrants yield the gory field,
And freedom strikes the blow?
They're conquorers—yet no bloody stain'
Rests on their glorious path;
They'reeonquored—but no deeds of wrong
Record a nation's wrath.
With faithful hearts, and fearless souls, •
A noblo fight is wun ;
A field on which lona years ago,
• S A rcepronder doods were done.
They've scattered from the peaceful sky
A blank acs fearful cloud,
That darkly hung, and seemed ton rap
Our country in a shroud.
We see the fair blue heavens again--
Wo feel their breath once more,
,And doubly bright the sun's broad light
Blames our native shore.
God bless tho froo ! our country's pride,
Ar. iron-heated band—
Nt, firmer on the wild-hill side
Their granite pillars stand.
With homes to guard, and hearts to cheer,
Aad many a tic to cherish—
They proudly go to meet the foe,
And conquer=or they perish. •

The Pirate's Love:
