And ten thousand* wildly, madly,

Swore that foeman s sword should never
Hearts like theirs entwined dissever,
Till that flag should float forever.
O'er their freedom or their grave.
Furl it, for thetrnds that grasped it,
And the hands that fondly clasped it,
Cold and dead are lying low;
And that Banner—it is trailing,
While around it sounds the wailing
Of its people in their woe.
For, though conquered, they adore it,
Lote the cold, dead hands that bore it,
Weep for tbose^rho fell before it.
Pardon those who trailed and tore it,
But, oh, wildly they deplore it,
Now who furl and fold it so.

practical common souse of lhe Ameri

of passion and the baneful influence of
prejudice which filled the hearts and
minds of some who were wont to '.rale
about the disloyalty and treason of the
South. The process was slow hut sure
that exterminated and upinoted the
spirit of enmity which hung for a time
like the deadly Upas tree, blighting
and withering as it fell upon the so

interests of a reunited count iy7 Steadily

then, a- tha water crept up higher, to 1
take refm e on tto roofst and, at list,
they were forced to floe lor tneir lives 1
to the high ground, at aclstancc of!

Mr. Ilartwi it had built a sort of flat- !
boat, or s<-ow, as he called it, which
proved extremely useful to himself
and his neighbors, in this perilous
time.
it was constantly in use, conV'-ying
people to the hills, picking up valu
able floating property, and taking otT
the sheep .and cattto which were
huddled in crowds wherever some bit
. i ^jound formed a tiny island in
the very mid«t of the flood.
One day, when Mr. Hartwell had
taken oil a number of cattle, as many
as the scow could safely carry, he
started with another -man to paddle
them to a place of safety, leaving John
and Tom IVtu on the housetop, which
was still but of water. - /
, He intended to'come back for anoth
er i<>ad of stock, and as the scow was
so heavily loaded, the hoys’volunteer
ed to remain behind and wait (orchis
return.
lo the meantime they amused them-
•eive* by fishing, for driftwood and
such floating property a* the water,
brought wlikie their reach.
