Sixty uni tine years have come, and rolled
away.
Since the great Georgia commoner first iaw the
light of day.
With body frail and aleudtrr, he bus made him*
aetf a name
Which will shi ue forever bright on the Nation’s
roll of lame.
Forty long winters of public life he has given.
And tor me Country’s good he ima always nobly
striven. *
With Clay. Csibona and Webster, and others of
the great,
lie has met in friejidlj, SOoqpel ou the floor of

Have all been cousccrated to the public weal:

Aa Uerrnou a dews, iu sacred song, on ancient
mountain height.
To educate young me* of worth, In science and

Has always been aa object dear to his empan
aiv* benrC
The widow’s wail and orphan’s cry have caught
hia i'at'ug ear,
And won from nun ten thou mud git M, and many
a pitying tear.
The southern black man in his hut has heard
his deeds of love.
And on hia knees has sought for him a blessing
from above;
While school boys nt their desks, and old men
tottering to their fall.
In prose and song this strain prolong, “The Bage
of Liberty flail."
Millions of friends throughout the la&d their
hearts and voices raise
To gracious Heaven iu mercy kind to lengthen
out his days.
And that at last, wh< n Nature fails, and life’s
great work is done.
