TO BELGIUM.
They, to whoa© ears the breezes have not borne Fierce carronade—sharp whistling of trie shell; Who have not shivered cn the blink of lie, I Woe-wise of deeds that .Satyr's breasts nad torn; Who have not dreed a night of ruth foresworn : A maniac morn, whose haunted jangled knell Echoes o'er every mountain, plain and fell Of horror-breathing universe forlorn: Belgium, the brave! The happier cations near. With unborn myriads of distant isles. Shall bring long tribute to thine awful woe. And balm thy hurt with many a tend;" tear. Thy chrism, every heiress infant's saiie?: Brave little arm! That stayed the Hoes inflow. Auckland, New Zealand. Kosltx.
