The modern Haynau. "Bottled" Chief, adieu.
Haply my country's freedom still remains,
And with the night have passed oppression's chains:
Oh, may the storms which settle o'er our land
Be gently lifted by th' all-saving Hand;
The dove return; fraternal discord cease,
And millions join the Jubilee of Peace!

FOOTNOTES

[1] He entered College in his sixteenth year as a future candidate for
the ministry. As he was without resources, he was compelled to do manual
work to meet the expenses incurred at the Institution. The fact is
creditable.

[2] Many instances are related of his insubordination at school and
disputes with superiors. One of the preachers having advanced the
opinion that only one in every hundred Christians would, perhaps, be
saved, our hero drew up a theological petition asking leave to vacate
his seat in church, very candidly regarding himself as among the number
that would be lost. A public reprimand for his smart irreverence was the
only answer vouchsafed the unfledged Doctor.

[4] The people of a captured city were subjected to fines and levies and
open plunder, and in some instances imprisoned at hard labor with ball
and chain.
