POETRY.


In imitation of CanpJeirs Hoheniinden.
9O'ER fiuron's wave the sun was low,
The weary soldier watch'd the bow
East fading from the cloud below
The dA'AiIg Of Niagara
And while the phantom chain'd bis sight.
All little thought he of the light
The horrors Of the dreamless night,
That posted on SO rapidly.
Soon, soon is fed e. ach softer charm
1he drum and trumpet sound alarm,
And bid each warrior nerve his arm
For boldest deeds Of chiyalfy.
The burning red cross, waving high.
Like meteor in the evening sky,
Proclaims the naughty foemeo nigh,
To try the strife Of rivalry.
coiumbia's banner floats rs proud,
Her gallant band around it croud,
And swear TO guard or make their shroud
Tue starr ed flag Of Liberty
"Hastc, haste, thee Scorr, TO meet the foe,
And let the scornfui Briton know,
We'll strung's the arm and firm the blow :.
Of him who strikes for Liberty"
Loud, loud the din Of battle rings,
Shrill through the ranks the bullet sings
And onward fierce each foeman springs
To mcer his peer in gaian'ry.
Behind the hills dcsce nds the sun,
The work OF death is but begun.
And red through twilight's shadows dun
Blazes the yole musketry.
OCharge, MILLER, charge the foe once more,
And louder than Niagara's roar
Along the line is heard, encore,
"On, on to death or victory"
Prom line 20 line, with lured glow,
High arching shoots the rockets bow,
And lights the mingled scene below
Of carnage, death, and misery.
The middle watch has now begun,
The horred battle fray is done.
Nor longer beats the furious drum,
To death, to death or victory.
Al, all is s,ill--with silent tread,
The wstchmen steels among the dead,
To guard his comrades lowly bed,
Till morning give him sepulture.
Low IN the West, Of splsrdcur shorn.
The midnight moon, with bloody horn,
Sheds her last beam on him forlorn,
Who fell 10 fight so gloriously.
oh ! long her crescent wax and wanc,
Ere she behold such fray again,
Such dismal nigh, such heaps OF slain,
Foe mix'd with foe promiscuously.
From fhe Vestern Cabinet
WHIsKEY.
or all the plague that scourge mankind,
There's hone that so impairs the mind,
And renders it to virtue blind,
As whiskey.
What Is the sourse of every i'll,
I That'does with pain tho body 6li
it is the OFT repeated gill
What is It that some love so we'll,
For which their bodies they shall SELF
And send their very souls 10 he'll
Tis whiskey.
What ID It poisons all their lives,
And make them curse and beat their wives,
And thousands to destruction drives
Tis whiskey
What makes chill penury prevail
Makes widows NOUN and orphans wall,
And flis the poor house and the goali
lis Whiskey.
o! whiskey thou'rt the greatest curse,
To soul, 10 body and TO purse
randora's box held nothing worse
Than Whiskcy.

THE ALGERINE WAR

II is probable that many of our readers NAV
not bear in mind the facts on which the recent
Declaration of War against Algiers is pPedica-
ted. We nave therefore obtained Tor their

Mr. CASTOR OF the House of Il .presentatiy $,
chalrmAn.of tRe committee to whom the bi
was re committed in the secret sitting The
documents accompanying the report, which
are tsoo long, and perhaps not proper for
present publication, are so conclusive as to
leave no DOUBT On the mind of any one VIII o
hears or reads them, of the impossibiity ofre-
establishing Peace with the Dey of AIgiers, u a
less By coercion except uader the most base and
Illuminating conditions. Our readersmay Judge
OF the Invete crate hostility ofthat Barbarian ty

sordid cupidity and natural ferocity and cruel

The committee to whom has been referred the
bill for the protection Of the commerce of the
United States against the Algerine cruisers y
with instructions to enquire and report in de-

That in the month Of July, 1912, the Dew OF

offence, at the quality aud quantity Of a shin
