THE FLAG OF THE UNITED STATES.

THE FLAG OF THE UNITED STATES.
Ne'er waved beneath the golden sun
A Ioveler banner for the brave,
Than that our bleeding fathers won
And proudly to their children gave;
Nor earth iairer gem can bring,
Or Freedom claim brighter scroll,
Than that 10 which our free hearts cling;
The flag which lights the lreeman's soul.
lis glorious stats in azure shine,
The radiant heraldry of AeaYep,
Its stripes in bcauteous order Irvine,
The elnbems Of our Union given,
And tyrants with trembling gaze
Survey lis bright and meteor glare
While glory's beams around il blaze,
And rest in iadeless spendor there
Look ireemen, on its streaming folds,
As CALAMITY they range aiar,
Where freedoms bird undaunted holds
The branch Of peace and spear OF war;
While high amid the rolling stars,
With words which every heart expand,
Within her beak secure she bears
The badge OF our united land
Behold thy star-wrought ensign sweep,
Thy country's pride, the tyrants bane;
Unrival!ed on the f0aming deep,
Along tn exulting mountain gale,
IT'S horne with wild majestic flow,
As trailing meteors skyward sail,
And leave the dazzed world below
From shore to shore, from hill to hill,
Where freedoms voice has yet been heard,
IT'S welcomed with holy thrill,
And of re5clion's fame hath stirred
Around the world THOU Oh every cline,
Where commerce wants or man hath irod,
1t floats alo(t unstained with crime,
But haIl0wei with heroic blood.
Tho France hath crushed her Bourbon fowe
And seized the flag her valor sought,
She holds il as expressions dover
name is all the boon it bought.
Though Albion boasts her cross OF blood,
Encrmsoned on thousand plains;
Yet freedoms cause she hath wlthstood,
And marked it with redeemesS stains.
But thine. COLUMBIA times the prize,
70 cheer the free and guide the brave,
To wave through earth's remotest skies,
And plant upon expressions grave.
Thine IS the standard freedom wrought,
70 rear above the hons form,
Whose fap3r their martyred fathers sought,
To chez; ,hem through the battles storm'
Flag Of the free still bear thy way
Undimm'd through ages yet untold,
Ger carth's proud realms thy stars display,
Like mornings radent clouds unrolled
Flag of the skies, still peerless shine,
Through ether's azure vault uniured,
Till every hand and heart entwine,
To sweep oppression from the world
"Bf quIET-Do, ILL CALL MY MOTHER.
A. was sitting an wood
Under an oak trees leay cover,
missing in pleasant solitude,
Who should come by but John, my lover;
He pressed my hand, and kissed my cheek /;
Then warmer growing, kissed the other;
While exclaimed, and strove to shrek,
!" Be quiet--do III call my mother !"
tie saw my anger was sincere,
And lovingly began to Glide me:

Mole, in relation to a letter emanaimg from Mar
tin du Nod, minister Of commerce, III which
that statesman says that on account Of the feel

merchants to abstain from sending cut goods to
this country, which they were before disposed to
do. Gen. Cass is determined to have the matter
fully explained. Count Mole has replied, but
Gen Cass considers that reply extremely unsatis-

With majoTiies in al least one branch of several
Of The State Legislatures, and in oilers OF both-
viii all their zeal and exeronsthey have been una
bic to induce an expression Of opinion favorable TO
the Sub Treasury scheme except in The notification
stale OF South Carolina, and in Alabama. Ii with
all the inducements which can be broughito bear on
men in offce--if by the liberal prefer of rewards
and The fierce threats Of punishment--if with The
mighty patronage Of the General Government in
their possession with which TO stimulate the dying
allegiance OF their vassals-they are unable to pro-
cure IN expression Of approval for the new expedi-
en', how can they hope to carry conviction to the
great Of the people who can neither be fatler-
ed b. hopes Of Executive favor alarmed by official
fIowns2
Surprising il possible to so far sti1e the daily
expressed sentiments of the Van Buren, members in
the ate Legislatures adverse to the scheme, as 10
preventtheir voting 10 instruct the Senators in Con-
gress 10 opp Sc it, Will these memb-rs return to
their constituents prepared 10 defend and ;dvocate

clare lheir conviction Of the dangerou, tendency of
the Sub Treasury scheme, nor Will they attempt TO
p;,liate or excuse the pernaci Of those in Wash

Congress. Their only plea for declining officially
to denounce is, that il viii endangcr the sscendan-
