~, In the pride OF their chvalreus fane--
ihey came as the warrior comes to the eight
To win him wreath for his name:
Ihcy came as the occan-wave comes in its wrath

ihcy came as the nountaIn-wnd comes in its path
-, Wien the tempest hath reused it from sleep:
ihey Wee met as THE rock meets the wayc,"
And dashcs its fury To air; .t

With henr,s for the conflict, but not for de.

What power hath stayed that wild career?
Not PHYS yolce--nur thrill OF fear

Ire " sweeps The bark to its yawning grave
lis the fearful hour Of the broodiny storm.
Ere the lightning bolt hath sped;
The shock hath come! and the likelihood warm.
Congeals on the breast of the dead.
The strfe-and the taunt--and the death cry Ioud
Are pealing high through the suphurous cloud,
Twas day of changcfu fate,
For the foe OF the hammered line:
Andth host that came at morn in state
Were broken tbrong ere the suns decline
And many warriors heart was cold,

Where the crimson tide of battle rolled
And the aveng'ng lesions ru<hcd
Wo fer the land thou trampest o'cr.
Death dealing iend of war.
Thy battle hoofs dyed In gore,
Red havoc drives thy car;
Wo! for the dark andEiesolutc,
Down crushed beneath thy tread
Thy trown hath been as a whitening fate
To the mourning and the dead!
Wo! for the pleasant cottage home,
The love-tlrong ut the door;
. VaiDly they think his step will come
Thor cherished comes no more:
Vo! for the broken-hearted,
The lone-one by the hearth
Vo! for the bliss departed,
Forever gone from earth,
WrOaths for the living conquerer.
And glorys need for the perisheIl,
mo trophied stone may their deeds restore,
~ But the hero names are cherished;
They barred them to the sabre.stroke
Norrinilcd an eye when the fury broke;
They fought like men who dared to die
For freedom was their battlc-cry--
And loud 1t ruDg through the conlict-snote,

To the far blue sky

ANNEXATION OF the Editor the floor OF that Body,
lowed WI by the resolution 10 proceed early day

temper and petty resentment utterly unworthy Of the
great man he is epresentcd.-Mr. Webster mi h have

manly style Of courtesy and truth, have stated his
complaints But MIR. w. il not content with either of
those courses. He before the Senate fthe u.
spens his budget of grefs, and wishes 10 make the
the instrument OF his revenge upon the unfortunate
wight of an Editor.
IL Mr.. w forget' what is due to himself the body,
to which he belongs, will not forget the dignity which
belongs TO them. They will not lend them selves to
the qualification Of his petulent resentments. They
will beware how they NEEDLE with the liberty of the

and one OF their own members IL was mscJn-
duct in Office, which calls for punshment IL was an
act done by Mr. Green, as the Editor OF newspaper;

fhat Mr.. Webster should wait one moment for his We n

Printer with contempt to the Senate with scandal

TO rue EDITORS OF THE ENQUIRER
The character OF Mr. Jefferson Is dear to every pat
riot in this country. An Effort has been made in the
Senate OF the Y. States to falsy statements made BY
him IN 1901, relating TO the extraordinary and yse
rous contest between Burr and himself for the Presi
dency Of the u. Sse.. Mr.. Jrer son OF en- laboured
under strong personal and political preudees but he
never n'isstdted facts CT uttered false hoods Much in
his letters lately published mig have been suppress
ed, or at least delayed. No will deny has facts,
or doubt his assertions.
Mr.. Baysrd NIGH, or might not have made the dis
closures imputed to him, but the annexed letter clear
~ shows that he in espondence with Mr.. JEFF
erson or his friends: and knew at least part of his
plans. This letter OF MIR. Bayard was dated the
day Of the election Of Mr.. Jefferson, and discloes
most shameful conduct the part OF those with HON
he was acting The letter has not been denied. and
