" EIN FE8TE BUBO 1ST UN8ER GOTT."
hilhti' Hymn.
(A SlTtE RfTUCE 13 OUlt GOD )
BY JORN O. WBITTIIK.
We wait beneath the furnace blast
The pangs of transformation ;
Not painlessly doth Qod recast
And mould anew the nation.
Hot burns the fire
Where wrongs expire ,
Nor spares the hand
That from the land
Uproots the ancient evil.
The hand-breadth cloud the sages feared,
Its bloody rain Is dropping ;
The poison plant the fathers spared,
All els Is over-topping.
East, West, South, North,
, . It cnrses earth ;
All justice dies, -
And fraud and lies
Live only in its shadow.
What gives the wheat-fiald blades of steel?
What points the rebel cannon 7
What sets the roaring rabble's heel
On the old star-spangled pennon 7
What breaks the oath
Of the men the Booth ?
What whets the knife-
For the Union's life?
nark to the answer : Slavery I
Then waste no blowaon lesser loel,'
In strife unworthy "freemen ; . .
God lifts to-day the veil and shows
The features .of the demon I I
0 North and South;'
Its victims both, "' C
Canjenotcry,
"Let slavery die I"
And Union find in freedom 3
What though the cast-out spirit tear
The nation in hts going?
We, who have shared the guilt, must share
The pang of his d'erthrowlog I
Wbate'er the loss,
Whote'er the crosfy
Shall they complain
Of present pain
Who trust in Qod's bereiifler7
For-who that leans on His right arm
Was everyetforsaken?
What righteous cause can suffer barm,
If He its part has taken?
Though wild and loud, '
And dark the cloud,
Behind its folds,
His band upholds
The cairn sky of to-morrow I
Above the maddening cry for blooJ,
Above the wild war-drumming,
Let Freedom's voice be heard, with good
The evil overcoming.
Give prayer and purse
To stay the curse,
Whose wrong we share,
Whose shame we bear,
Whose end shall gladden Heaven I
In vain the bells of war ahallrlug
Of triumphs and revenges,
While still is spared the evil thing
That severs and estrasges.
But blest the ear
That yet ahall hear
The Jubilant bell
That rings the knell
Of slavery forever 1
Then let the selfish lip be dumb,
And hushed the breath of sighing ;
Eefore the joy of peace, mus' come
The pains of purifying.
Ood give us grace,
Each in his place,
To bear bla lot,
And murmur not,
Endure and wait and labor I
From tin Nw York Sunday Utrcury.
THE LATEST FROM WASHINGTON.
The members of the Mackerel Brigade, now
stationed on Arlington Heights to watch the
movements of the Potomac, which is expected
to rise shortly, desire me to thank the ladies
of America for supplies.of havelocks aud other
delicacies of the season just received. The
bavelocks, my boy, are rather roomy, and we
took them for flbirts at first; and the shirts are
so narrow-miuded that we took them for have
locks. If the women of America could man
age to get a little less linen into the collars of
the latter, aud a little more Into the other de
partments of the graceful "garmint," there
would be fewer colds in this division of the
Grand Army. The havelocks, as I have said
before, ore roomy very roomy, my boy. Vil
li am Brown, of company G, put one on last
night, when ho went on sentry duty, aud looked
like a broomstick in n pillow-case, for all the
world. When the officer of the night cam
round aqd caught sight of Vjlliaru in his have
lock, be was struck dumb with admiration for
a moment. Then he ejaculated:
"What a snlendid moonbeam I"
Villinm made a movement, and the. sergeant
came up.
" What's that nliile nLjeM ?" nays the officer
1 to the sergeant.
"The youiitf man rvhieii in ViUiam Brown,"
says the sergeant.
" Thunder 1" roan the officer j "tell him to
go to bis tent and take off that night gown I"
" You're mistaken," says the sergeant ; " the
sentry is ViUiam Brown, in his havelock, which
was made by the wimmin of America."
The officer was so justly exasperated at his
mistake that he went immediately to his head
quarters and took the Oath three times running,
with a little sugar.
The Oath is very popular, my boy, and comes
in bottles. I take it medicinally myself.
The shirts made by the ladies of America
are nolle articles, as far don n as the collar,
cut Trould not do to use as an only garment.
Captnm Mortimer do Montague, of the okir
nish squad, put ono on vrhen ho -cnt to the
President's reception, nod the collar stood up
69 high thnt ho couldn't pnt his onp on, while
tha other depattments didn't quite reach to his
waist. His appearanoo at the White House
vas picturesque and) interesting, and as he
entered the drawing room, General ficolt, re
marked, very feelingly;.:
" Ah I here comes Vine of the wounded he
roes."
" Ho's not wounded
HanaiiBl " rnmiirl'Oil an
officer standing by.
r""""'
"Then whv is his bead bandaged up so?"
agk?d the venerable veteran.
"Oh," says the officer, " t hat's Only one of
the shirts made by the patriotic wimmin of
America."
In about five minutes after this conversation,
I saw the veuernlilc veteran, the wounded hero,
and the officer, tailing the oath together.
Tho seventy-ninth, Highlanders, came to
town enrly ln.nt week, and are the finest body
nf Scotchmen thnt were ever hnlf kilt by uni
form alone. My heart warmed to them when
I first saw them j and, with arms outspread, I
greeted the fellow nearest to me. With a tear
of gratified pride in his eye, he exclaimed s
" A old lang syne and Scots whaha'e ; but gang
awa wi Heeland laddie thegithero John Ander
son tny Joe ; and, moreover, we'll take a right
gude willie wach for murkln twa and hraw
rhiel."
I told him I thought so myself.
I'm sorry to say, tny boy, that some members
of this splendid regiment are badly off for trow
sers, and shock my modesty tremendously. They
probably forgot them in their hurry to get to the
war, and the Union Pretence Committee ought
to send them out an assortment of peg tops at
once. "Not that I hobject to the hinnocent
hamnsement'of the Highlanders j bnt that de
cency and propriety must be preserved within
the limits of the army," at the British show
man observed.
I took a trip down to Alexandria the other
night, to Me how the Fire Zouaves were getting
along, and enran pretty near getting into trou
ble with one of Fire's screamers. He was on
guard : and when he challenged me, the pass
word slipped my memory.
" Drdn that ere butt." savs be. brincinz his
musket to a charge. ' or I'll give yer a taste of
theoldmasbeen. VYliowba-wliat are yer cough-
In' at-sanoyr"
I was frightened, my boy, and had just com
menced the appropriate prayer of " Now I lay
medown to sleep," when suddoniyan ideastruck
me, and I acted on it immediately.
"Hellol" snys I, "Johnny, didn't yon hear
the old Hall kettle strike for the Fourth Dis
trict? Come along with me and help get the
old dog cart on a jump, or Nine's roosters will
get the railroad track and have de old butt in
hustle street before we can swing the old me
sheen over a pig's whiiker."
" Bully for you " says he, dropping his
mnskol ail in a quiver, and commencing to roll
up bis pantaloons. " I've got a bet on that ere
fire, and if 'I don't take the starch out of that
era Nine's feller what wears good clothes and
don't do nothing, yon may just take my boots."
It was all the force of habit, yon see; and if
I hadn't stopped that Zouave, I really believe
he'd have run clean into the bosom of all the
first families, looking forthe Fourth District and
Nine's fellers 1
The Mackerel brigade haye got their new
uniforms, and they ain't the martial garments
it would do tn get fat in. High private Bami
vel Green nut his ou, partially, yesterday ; but
it's a ponitivo fact, my boy, that by the time he
got bis coat buttoned his pantaloons were all
worn ont. I managed to eetou one of the uni
forms myself, and the first time I went into the
open air all the bnttons blew off. If you, know
the traitor that made the articles, just say
"damn" to him once, for the sake of yours
particularly, Ohfdeus 0. Kerr.
