Tarshish; Its Modern Representative.
Tarshish to be found as one ? Now it seemeth we look through a glass darkly , then , to be known as we are known . The whole house of Israel are Judah and Ephraim , not vexing , or vexed at , each other any more . If it be true that this nation of ours represents , or contains within its ample folds , covering so many fair regions of the earth , the house of Israel , then it may be well
said" Oh , Britain ! thou who art so great and free , As oft thy children vaunt , and foes confess , Think that thy might was not conceded thee To scorn thine elder sister and oppress . No ; 'twas to aid , acknowledge her , and bless : Sor God hath fixed her dwelling-place apart , And given her gifts that thou dost not possess ;
Hurt not her shieldless form with envious dart , But bear her by thy side with nobly generous heart . " So mote it be .
The Southern Scourge.
THE SOUTHERN SCOURGE .
MASONIC CHARITY , BT CAPT . SAM . WHITING . WAIL is borne the breeze
A upon , Men hear it aud agoast they stand * ; It sweeps across our inlaou seas And o ' er our Western praivie land . We hear of scores of dauntless men , Ancl women , too—God bless the dears !
Who sought the sufferers' bed , and then Reliev'd their pains ancl dried their tears . While Yellow Fever ' s pois ' nous breath O ' erwhelmed our Southern land with woe , Scores of our brethren sank in death 'Mid terrors that we ne ' er may know .
Forth to the van that brotherhood , Whose charities are world-renowned , Came forward ancl unflinching stood , While yet a suff ' rer could la found . Oh ! laurels won on fields like thee e ,
How more enduring far than those By bloodshed gain'd on lands or seas , Where men in deadly conflict close ! " We know no South , we know no North , " This motto teach Columbia ' s youth ; And speed our glorious watchword forth "Fraternal Love , Relief , and Truth , "
