AMERICA. 281 |

No ! yours be the honor now to raise
Those " Stars and Stripes," so loved by all;
And swear by Him who rules on high, By thern to live or with them fall.
Then rally to our standard, boys,
Ye gallant ones and true ; There is " Captain Jack " of Co. K,
Who will gladly welcome you ; We're going in the " Fortifications," boys ;
These tidings sure will please ; But mind it's not at Washington,
But those of Rebel General Lee's. Camp, near Culpepper, Va., March 12,1864.

AMERICA.
MY country, 't is of thee, Sweet land of liberty,
Of thee I sing: Land where my fathers died, Land of the Pilgrims' pride, From everv mountain-side,
Let freedom ring. |
