We hear thousands singing
s the free flag is unfurled,

On our wild Atlantic shore.
But few knew then who were living
The significance it bore ;
For its tones had sleeping thunders
That in grandeur were sublime,
That in grand historic numbers
Will run through the course of time. I
That is nothing, tyrants murmured,;
On such wild wood distant shore.
And they never can be numbered
With thd monachies of yore.

And a loud call for the ringing
Of the free bell ’round the world.
Man’s free thought is truly growing
Where they hear our free bells ring.
And contentions not worth showing
Loose all venom in their sting.
And their are no brighter stories
Ever floated o’er the sea
Than a bell that rings the glories
Of a lan|i unbound and free.
In all hearts there is a longing
For free thought that all can sing,
This is seen; where crowds are
thronging
Gladly where our free bell ring.
Now, when freedom's bell was ringing
First upon our wild wood shore.
Nowhere was a tyrant dreaming
Of its hidden powers in store;
For the mystic powers were holding
Truths unfathomed from our sight
Until cultured minds confronting
Errors, can in safety bring all right.

When the Declaration Was Signed.
The declaration of Texas inde-
pendence was signed almost im-
mediately after the Goliad massa-
cre. It came at a time to lend
import to the glorious victory on
the field of San Jacinto tlie month
following.
Delegates were elected February
1, 1836, and assembled in Wash-
ington March 1. In the afternoon
of the first day George C. Childress
mo veil that a committee of five be
appointed to frame a declaration of
freedom from Mexico. He was
made chairman.
On March 2 the declaration was
submitted. It was adopted, and
the members of the assembly
signed the document.
On March 16 the executive ordi-
nance was adopted and the repub-
lic of Texas came into real exist-
