' TwlVliY." TO NORTHERN FRIENDS. BY MARY T.. T'CKKH, OP OEOnOTA. When you sing your pons pf Victor, Exulting in your pride. That your brave and gallant warrior9 Again nrc by your side, Pause, and think 1ml for a moment Of (behind beyond the ton, Where the hearts throb wildly, madly At your ecng of " Victory." Think of desolated homesteads In tho conquered Southern land, And the gaunt and meagre famine, Thai lias severed kindred baud Then let your voices soften, Think of those beyond the sea, And let words of pity minglo With your cry of " Victory." Think of thoso who now nrc Bleeping In their lonely unknown graves, Eespect their memory, they fell For freedom, and were braves. AU ! ninny hearts are mourning North ; But, oh ! beyond the s-a The unhealed nounlis opened, nt Your song of " Victory." We hail, too, a flag we cherished, But it is forever furled ; And it bears no stain upon it As wo show it to the world. Save a nation's lack of numbers In the land beyond the sea We fought for freedom, you but fought To win the "Victory ! " You gained it ; now let charity Your better natures move, And change your song oi " Victory" Into a song of Love. Then reunited by love's bonds Each voice beyond the sea Will swell the chorus long and loud Of your song "Victory." Branding criminals is abolished in Russia.
