My native country, thee, Land of the noble free — Thy name I love ; I love thy rocks and rills, Thy woods and templed hills ; My heart with rapture thrills Like that above. Let music swell the breeze, And ring from all the trees, Sweet freedom's song ; Let mortal tongues awake. Let all that breathe partake, Let rocks their silence break. The sound prolong. Our father's God to thee, Author of Liberty, To thee I sing ; Long may our land be bright With freedom's holy light ; Protect us by thy might, Qreat God, our King. THE BATTLE-CRY OF FREEDOM. Yes, we'll rally round the Flag, boys, we'll rally once again, Shoutinj; the battle-cry of freedom! We will rally from the hillside, we'll gather from the plain, Shouting the battle-cry of freedom ! CHORUS. The Union forever! hurrah ! boys, hurrah ; Down with the traitors, up with the stars ! * While t\ e rally round the flag, boys, rally once again. Shouting the battle-cry of freedom ! We are springing to the call of our brothers gone before, Shouting the battle-cry of freedom ! And we'll fill the vacant ranks with a million freemen more. Shouting the battle cry of freedom ! We will welcome to our numbers the loyal, true and brave. Shouting the battle-cry of freedom ! And although he may be poor, he shall never be a slave. Shouting the battle-cry of freedom ! So, we're springing to the call from the East and from the West, Shouting the battle cry of freedom ! And we'll hurl the rebel crew from the land we love the best, Shouting the battle-cry of freedom ! MARCHING THROUGH GEORGIA. By permission of Root and Cady. Bring mtj the good old bugk-, boys! we'll sing anotiier song — Sing it with that spirit that will start the world along — Sing it as we used to sing it fifty thousand strong, While we were marching through Georgia. Chorus — " Hurrah ! Hurrah ! we bring the Ju])ilee! Hurrah ! Hurrah ! the flag that makes you free ! " So we sing the chorus from Atlanta to the sea, While we were marching through Georgia. How the darkeys shouted when they heard the joyful sound ! How the turkeys gobbled which our commissary found ; How the sweet potatoes even started from the ground, Wliile we were marching through Georgia. Yes, and there were Union men who wept with joyful tears. When they saw the honored flag they hadn't seen for years; Hardly could they be restrained from breaking off" in cheers. While we were marching through Georgia. "Sherman's dashing Yankee boys will never reach the coast!" So the saucy rebels said, and 'twas a handsome boast, Had they not forgot, alas, to reckon with the host, While we were marching through Georgia. So we made a thoroughfare for Freedom and her train, Sixty miles in latitude — three hundred to the main; Treason fled before us, for resistance was in vain, While we were marching through Georgia. U. OF ILU LIB. HAIL, COLUMBIA. Hail, Columbia, liappy land ! hail, ye heroes, heaven-born band ; Who fought and bled in Freedom's cause, Who fought and bled in Freedom's cause, And when the storm of war was gone, enjoyed the peace your valor won. Let independence be our boast, ever mindful what it cost; Ever grateful for the prize, let its altar reach the skies. CHORUS. Firm, united, let us be, rallying round our liberty. As a band of brothers joined, peace and safety we shall fiiul. Immortal patriots, rise once more, defend your rights, de- fend your shore. Let no rude foe, with impious hand, Let no rude foe, with impious hand. Invade the shrine where sacred lies, of toil and blood, the well-earned prize. While offering peace sincere and just, in heaven we place a manly trust. That truth and justice will prevail, and every shame of bondage fail. Sound, sound the trump of fame ! let Washington's great name Ring through the world with loud ai^plause. Ring through the world with loud applause. Let every clime to Freedom dear, listen with a joyful ear. With e(iual skill and God-like power, he govern'd in the fearful hour, Of horrid war ! or guides, with ease, the happier time of honest peace. 12 WHEN JOHNNY COMES MARCHING HOME. W'lien Johnny comes marching- home again, hurrah, hurrah We'll give him a hearty welcome then, hurrah, hurrah ! The men will cheer, the boys will shout! The ladies, they will all turn out, And we'll all feel gay When Johnny comes marching home. The old church bell will peal with joy, hurrah, hurrah ! To welcome home our darling boy, hurrah, hurrah ! The village lads and lassies say With roses they will strew the way. And we'll all feel gay When Johnny comes marching home. Get ready for the Jubilee, hurrah, hurrah ! We'll give the hero three times three, hurrah, hurrah ! The laurel wreath is ready now To place upon his loyal brow, And we'll all feel gay When Johnny comes marching home. Let love and friendship, on that day, hurrah, hurrah! Their choicest pleasures then display, hurrah, hurrah ! And let each one perform some part. To fill with joy the warrior's heart. And we'll all feel gay When Johnny conies marching home. TO THE *'BOYS IN BLUE." The Niagara Falls Short Line comprising the Balti- more & Ohio Railroad to Auburn Junction, Wabash, St. Louis & Pacific Railway Auburn Junction to Detroit, the Great Western Railway Detroit to Niagara Falls, (being some twenty miles the shortest route via Detroit to Niagara Falls) surrenders to the "(}rand Army of the Republic," all the rights of its elegant equipment, its fast train, the grand, beautiful scenery on its line ; the polite and gentlemanly treatment of its officers for a trip to Portland, Me. and return, between the 15th and 22d of June, with the privilege of continuing their journey by any of the routes mentioned in circular, and returning within thirty days with stop-over privi- lege on return trip for the sum of $25 each from Chicago. Hip, Hip, Hurrah ! We have captured the favorite route. Let us all go over it to our re-union and have a grand time. We can take its fast express at 3:50 P. M. or a special train passing Detroit and over the pop ular Great Western Railway to Niagara Falls, arriving there at 8 A. M., remaining there until about 3 P. M., and then have our choice of routes, either by the Grand Trunk Railway to Kingston; thence either by the Grand Trunk Railway to Montreal, or the splendid steamers of the Richelieu cV' Ontario Navij^^ation Com- pany on the St. Lawrence, whose pilots have for years guided them through the swift and winding channels of the Thousand Islands and Rapids with perfect safety 14 to Montreal, thence either by the Grand Trunk Rail- way or the choice of other routes to Portland, or wc can leave Niagara Falls at 3:15 P. M. by the West Shore Route for Boston via Rotterdam Junction and the Hoosac Tunnel Route, arriving in Boston early next morning, and Portland at noon, unless we decide to stop part of the day in Boston. I presume you have all heard of the sumptuous and elegant equip- ment of the West Shore Route, said to be the best on any road in America. I am incHned to think the Niagara Falls Short Line will be the most comfortable route; they are late in the field and probably will not be so crowded as other lines, who for the past three months have spent time and money to convince us they have the best route. Now, boys, let us try the Niagara Falls Short Line and either go from Niagara Falls by the Grand Trunk or the West Shore & Hoosac Tunnel Route to Boston, then by the Boston & Maine Railroad to Portland; they offer a number of routes to return. So say I; so say all of us. We try the Niagara Falls Short Line via Niagara Falls. Hip, hip, Hurrah! — Tiger. One thing is important, those wanting Sleeping Car accommodations should apply early, that Sleeping Cars may be provided for all who apply direct to J. H. WHTPMAN, Gen'l Western Agent, Niagara Falls Short Line, 97 Randolph St., Chicago. THE ARMY BEAN. (-•///' — '' Swcct Bye and J>ye.'') i here's a spot that the soldiers all love, The mess-tent's the place that we mean, And the dish that we like to see there, Is the old-fashioned white Army IJean. CHORUS. "ris the bean that we mean, And we'll eat as we ne'er ate before; The Army Bean, nice and clean, We'll stick to our beans evermore. Now the bean in its primitive state, Is a plant we have all often met; And when cooked in the old army style, It has charms we can never forget. The German is fond of saur-kraiit. The potato is loved by the Mick, But the soldiers have long since found out. That thro' life to our beans we should stick. Refrain. Air — ''Teil Aunt R/iody.'^ Beans for breakfast. Beans for dinner, Beans for supper. Beans, Beans, Beans. STAR SPANGLED BANNER. ' Oh! say, can you see by the dawn's early light, What so proudly we hail'd at tlie twilight's last gleaming; I Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous i fight, ] O'er the ramparts we watch'd, were so gallantly streaming, ! •And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air, j Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there. | Oh ! say, does the star-spangled banner still wave, ' O'er the land of the free, and the home of the brave ? On the shore, dimly seen through the mist of the deep. Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes. What is that, which the breeze o'er the towering steep, As it fitfully blows, half conceal'd, half discloses ? Now it catches the gleam of the morning's fir^t beam, In full glory reflected, now shines on the stream; 'Tis the star-spangled banner, Oh! long may it wave. O'er the land of the free, and the home of the brave. And where is the band who so vauntingly swore That the havoc of war, and the battle's confusion, A home and a country should leave us no more ? Their blood has wash'd out their foul footstep's pollution. No refuge could save the hireling and slave. From the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave ; And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave, O'er the land of the free, and the home of the brave. Oh 1 thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand Between their loved homes and foul war's desolation; Bless'd with victory and peace may the Heaven-rescued land Praise the power that hath made and preserved us a nation ; Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just. And this be our motto — " In God is our trust ! " And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave, O'er the land of the free, and the home of the brave. WE'VE DRUNK FROM THE SAME CANTEEN. There are bonds of all sorts in this world of ours. Fetters of friendship and ties of flowers, And true lovers' knots, I ween. The boys and girls are bound by a kiss. But there's never a bond, old friend, like this: We have drunk from the same canteen. CHORUS. The same canteen, my soldier friend, The same canteen; There's never a bond like this: We have drunk from the same canteen. » It was sometimes water and sometimes milk. Sometimes applejack, fine as silk; But whatever the tipple has been. We shared it together in bane or in bliss, And I warm to you, friend, when I think of this: We have drunk from the same canteen. We've shared our blankets and tents together. And marched and fought, in all kinds of weather. And hungry and full we've been; Had days of battle and days of rest. But this memory I cling to and love the best: We have drunk from the same canteen. For when wounded I lay on the outer slope, With my blood flowing fast, and but little hope On which my faint spirit might lean; ()! then I remember, you crawl'd to my side, .\nd bleeding so fast, it seemed both must have dicti, We have drunk from the same canteen. 18 SHERMAN'S MARCH TO THE SEA. Our camj) fires shone bright on tlie niounlain That frowned on the river below, While we stood by our guns in the morning, And eagerly watched for the foe. When a rider came out from the darkness That hung over mountain and tree. And shouted, " Boys, up and be ready, For Sherman will march to the sea! " CHORUS. Then sang we a song for our chieftain. That echoed o'er river and lea, And the stars in our banner shone brighter When Sherman marched down to the sea. Then cheer upon cheer for bold Sherman Went up from each valley and glen, And the bugles re-echoed the music That came from the lips of the men; For we knew that the stars in our banner More bright in their splendor would be, And that blessings from North-land would greet us When Sherman marched down to the sea. Then forward, boys, forward to battle. We marched on our wearisome way. And we stormed the wild hills of Resaca, God bless those who fell on that day. Then Kenesaw, dark in its glory, Frowned down on the Flag of the Free, But the East and the West bore our standard. When Sherman marched down to the sea. Still onward we pressed till our banners Swept out from Atlanta's grim walls. And the blood of the Patriots dampened The soil were the traitors' flag falls, But we paused not to weep for the fallen, Who slept by each river and tree, Yet we twined them a wreath of the laurel, And Sherman marched down to the sea.

When the glorious tramp was heard, And the bojs came marching fift}- thousand strong. And we grasped each other's hands, Tho' we uttered not a word, As the booming of our cannon rolled along. CHORUS. On, on, on, the boys came marching, Like a grand majestic sea, And they dashed away the guard From the hea\n,' iron door, And we stood beneath the starr>^ banner free. O ! the feeblest heart grew strong. And the most despondent, sure, WTien we heard the thrilling sounds we loved so well. For we knew that want and woe We no longer should endure, When the hosts of freedom reached our prison cell. O ! the war is over now, And we're safe at home again. And the cause we starved and suffered for is won. But we never can forget, 'Mid our woe and 'mid our pain, How the glorious Union boys came marching on. OLE SHADY. Oh! yah! yah!

Oh, Columbia, the Gem of the Ocean, The home of the Brave and the Free; The Shrine of each Patriot's devotion, A world offers Homage to Thee! Thy mandates make Heroes assemble, When Liberty's form stands in view; Thy banners make Tyranny tremble, When borne by the Red, White and Blue. CHORUS. When borne by the Red, White and IMue, When borne by the Red, White and Blue, Thy Banners make Tyranny tremble. When borne by the Red, White and Blue. When war waged its wide desolation. And threatened our land to deform, The Ark then of Freedom's foundation, Columbia rode safe through the storm. With her garland of victory o'er her. When so proudly she bore her bold crew. With her Flag proudly floating before her, The boast of the Red, White and Blue. The wine cup, the wine cup bring hither. And fill you it up to the brim; May the wreath they have won never wither, Nor the star of their glory grow dim! May the service united ne'er sever. And hold to their colors so true! The Army and Navy forever! Three cheers for the Red, White and Blue! TENTING ON THE OLD CAMP- GROUND. We're tenting to-night on the old camp-ground, Give us a song to cheer Our weary hearts, a song of home And friends we love so dear! CHORUS. Many are the hearts that are weary to-night, Wishing for the war to cease; Many are the hearts looking for the right, To see the dawn of peace; Tenting to-night, tenting to-night, Tenting on the old camp-ground. We've been tenting to-night on the old camp-ground, Thinking of the days gone by; Of the loved ones at home, that gave us the hand, And the tear that said: Good-bye! We are tired of war on the old camp-ground; Many are dead and gone, I Of the brave and true, who've left their homes; Others have been wounded long. We've been fighting to-day on the old camp-ground Many are lying near. Some are dead, and some are dying, Many are in tears! CHORUS. Many are the hearts that are weary to-night, Wishing for the war to cease; Many are the hearts looking for the right, To see the dawn of peace; Dying to-night, dying to-night. Dying on the old camp-ground. 24 BATTLE HYMN OF THE REPUBLIC. IJY MRS. JULIA WARD IIOWK. Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord; He is traniphng out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored ; He hath loosed the fateful lightning of His terrible swift sword ; His truth is marching on. I have seen him in the watch-fires of a hundred circling camps ; They have builded Him an altar in the evening dews and damps ; I have read His righteous sentence in the dim and flaring lamps; His day is marching on. I have read a fiery gospel, writ in burnished rows of steel ; " As ye deal with my contemners, so with you my grace shall deal ; Let the Hero, born of woman, crush the serpent with his heel; Since God is marching on." He has soundeci forth the trumpet that shall never call retreat ; He is sifting out the hearts of men before His judgment seat; O be swift, my soul, to answer Him ! be jubilant, my feet ! Our God is marching on. In the beauty of the lily Christ was borne across the sea ; With a glory in His bosom that transfigures you and me ; As He died to make men holy, let us die to make men free ; While God is marching on. TRAMP! TRAMP! TRAMP! In tlie prison cell 1 sil, Thinking, Mother dear, of you, And our bright and happy home, so far away; And the tears they fill my eyes, Spite of all that I can do, Tho' I try to cheer my comrades and be gay. CHORUS. Tramp, tramp, tramp! the boys are marching, Cheer up! comrades, they will come. And beneath the Starr>' Flag, We shall breathe the air again, Of the Free-land in our own beloved home. In the battle-front we stood, When their fiercest charge they made. And they swept us off, a hundred men or more, But before we reached their lines. They were beaten back dismayed. And we heard the cry of vict'ry, o'er and o'er. So, within the prison cell, We are waiting for the day That shall come to open wide the iron door; And the hollow eye grows bright, And the poor heart almost gay, As we think of seeing home and friends once more KINGDOM COMING. Say, darkies, hab you seen de massa, Wid de muffstash on his face, Go 'long de road sometime dis mornin', Like he gwine to leab de place ? He seen a smoke way up de ribber, Whar de Linkum gumboats lay; He took his hat and lef berry sudden, An^ I spec he's run away. CHORUS. De massa run ? ha, ha ! De darkie stay ? ho, ho ! It mus' be now de Kingdom coming, An' de year ob jubilo ! He six foot one way, two foot tudder, An' he weigh tree hundred pound. His coat so big, he couldn't pay de tailor, An' it won't go half way round. He drill so much dey call him Cap'en. An' he get so drefful tann'd, I spec he try an* fool dem Yankees, For to tink he's contraband. De darkies get so lonesome Libing in de log house on de lawn, Dey move dar tings to massa' s parlor For to keep it while he's gone. Dar's wine and cider in de kitchen, An' de darkies dey'll hab some ; I 'spose dey'll all be comfiscated When de Linkum sogers come. De oberseer he make us trubble, An' he dribe us round a spell ; We lock him up in de smoke house cellar, Wid de key trown in de well ; De whip is lost, de han'cuff broken, But de massa'll hab his pay ; He's ole enough, big enough, ought to nown Better dan to went an' run away. OUR FLAG IS THERE. Our flag is there ! Our flag is there ! We'll hail it with three loud huzzas ! Our flag is there I Our flag is there ! Behold the glorious stripes and stars ! Stout hearts have fought for that bright flag, Strong hands sustained it masthead high ; And oh! to see how proud it waves, Brings tears of joy to every eye. CHORUS. Our flag is there, our flag is there, We'll hail it with three loud huzzas ; Our flag is there, our flag is there, Behold the glorious stripes and stars. That flag withstood the battle's roar, With foemen stout, with foemen brave ; Strong hands have sought that flag to low'r. And found a speedy wat'ry grave. That flag is known on every shore, The standard of a gallant band, Alike sustained in peace or war. It floats o'er freedom's happy land. BABYLON IS FALLEN. Don't you see de black clouds Risin' ober yonder, Whar de Massa's old plantation am ? Nebber you be frightened, Dem is only darkeys Come to iine an' fight for Uncle Sam. CHORUS. Look out dar, now ! We's a gvvine to shoot! Look out dar— don't you understand ? Oh, don't you know dat Babylon is fallen ! Babylon is fallen ! And we's a gwine to occupy de land ? Don't you see de lightnin' Flashin' in de canebrake, Like as if we gwine to hab a storm ? No ! you is mistaken — 'Tis de darkey's bay'nets, An' de buttons on dar uniform. Way up in de cornfield, Whar you hear de tunder. That is our ole forty-pounder gun ; When de shells are missin'. Den we load wid pumkins, All de same to make de cowards run. Massa was de Kernel In de rebel army, Ebber since he went an' run away; But his lubly darkeys, Dey has been a watchin' An' dey take him pris'ner tudder day. We will be de Massa, He will be de sarvant — Try him how he like it for a spell ; So we crack de butt'nuts, So we take de Kernel, So de cannon carry back de shell.
