PEACE.
(For -the " Star," by " PAE.'EH>A.") At last! -tihe weary years of war are o'er, In triumph is Sfc George's Oro as unfurled, Once more the joyous cannon 1 flash and roar, Wherever Britain's arms guard half ifotn ■world. False exultation to'er a. gallant foa la not the keynote of our joy >tihis day, 'Tis ours to heal those scenes of Wood «nd woe, Till by firm justice all T>e wiped away. But deepest in our graceful 'hearts to-night Be all Ike heroes of Ihafc gallant band. Who did their duty in *hat stem, end fight, And lived or died frue sons of Maoiiland.
