• The STA •id STRIP Bel The STARS and STRIPES'
What thong they hive been sung
An hundred time o'er hundred harps
Since Freedom's bow was strung
By hero hands on Bunker, Hill,
And storied Santee's crimson rill, •
Shall they not yet draw holy fire
From every earnest patriot lyre?
Why, thjs is now 4Fe very time
Their glories should he told,
When round the Ark our Fathers built
The treason clould is rolled,
When over even Vernon's grave
The traitor's flag would. dare to wave,
And he would rend a Henry's soil
From sacred k w and virtues G rd! •
'MI Ellsworth sleeps the aiful sleep
Because he loved their light, •
A Lyon' for their sake has walked
Into the dreamless night;
And see six hundred thousand now -
For them are bearing breast and hrow—
Then, as their folils like tempest fly,
Swear that the Nation shall Not. die!
Yes, sing the.STAns, and sing the Sratega!
From Maine to Georgia sing! •
God's battle angels o'er them spread
The guardian plume and wing!
Behold! the Spirits of the Past
ho died for them, nre on the blast!
Bid, bid their folds like tempests fly!
swear, swear their Nation shall NOT die!
THERE'S A LAND OF GLOWING HEARTY,
There's a land of glowing beauty,
Cloudless-skies, serene - and flir, _
Where no stormy wind o'er bloweth,
Where the mind •is free from care.
Just beyond the darksome river
hies this land of joy and light;
Saints and angels dwell within it,
Songs and praises their delight.
O'er its verdant plains of pleasure
Streams of joy forever flow;
Peaceful rivers gently gliding,
Murmur music soft and low.
Fragrant flowers to deck its pathways,
Streets of burnished shining gold,
Pearly gates and walls of jasper,
Splendors that can nc'er be told.
J3owe•s of amaranthine spletador,
Fruitp of fair ninitrosial taite,
Verdant hills and fertile valleys;
Landscapes ne'er by* defaced.
'Tin the land that God has promised.
Heavenly Canaan, land of rest;
Where foi ever in his'presenee
Dwell at last the good and blest.

A great struggle, the most momentous
the epiritof progreis ever encountered,the
world ever experiheed., of human hearts
and bands ever, enlisted in, is now Jelly
inaugurated ,, and by it is to be determined
our future character and position as a gov-.
eminent and a nation. The hour for
peaceful adjustMent has run out to thy last
sand; the halt for mutual compromise is
over, the uplifted hoof of war at last has
fallen, and the reluctant shoulder de strong
and mighty people brought alternately to
the level musket's butt. The convulsive
throes of internal dissolution "have shaken
from end to end the mightiest Republic ev.
erreared by human skill. and in its own
bosom have ruthlt se hands rent a yawn,
ing grave, and beried without a prayer of
requiem it a beloved colors. America
seethes at last in the terrible crucible over
which she has-so long been trembling, and'
from which she is to emerge, purified and
brightened to fit a fairer future. or as a
blackened, oismembered mass, never more
to be known as a power, or united as a'
people. Which it 'shaft be, rests with
the same God vithil gave 'victory to the
struggles of our fathers, and. with the might
of our own arms. nerved to the stern cal
or of .heroism by countless glory crowned
memories. There is no averting step bin
that ot ignominious dishonour: no other
cup to choose but that overflowing with
the bitterness of everlasting disgrace.. The
solution lies alone beyond blood stained
battles; through ruins of smnuldering cities;
over war mown ha vest fields; streets pay-,
ell with heaaless trunks; and hearth.stones

Faith of the People.
Events pass us - w i libilifc'

reflection. The country hangs, - liteially
upon the wires, and the tri daily electric
news has become such a fixed fact that
one would think the nation, impervious to
a shock even from a galvanic battery.--
But this is not the result of indifference
Odr callousness. It is the faith of • the
people in our rulers. and those who have
the conduct of this ;war.
In all these weeks of agnniting suspense,
when the late of this nation hat‘to human
ey es, hung
,upon the issue of a day; there
has been no distrust of integrity, and but
little complaint. The World in ha lane,
under other institutions, can afford such
an instance of the faith of the people.—
Orie day the country feels certain that the
seizure of Mason and Slidell is right, and
are willing, on that' issue, to accept a war
with the greatest naval power in'the world.

sublimity of such faith cannot be imagin

the news comes hat the head of the War
Department has ret Al. and another takes
his place. N. a critinisni is heard, not a

the people acquiesces. and scarce a ripple

Again, the National exigency demands

All this shows the faith of the people;
of a people who Lave given uncounted
men and uncounted dollars to the cause of
the Union. and who, too. for months, have
been forced to live upon hope alone.
Tell us not that the people are unrea

are fickle; but tell us that in no nation on
