THE BUNKER HILL MONUMEN


Ter the direction OF the wives Of Daaiel Web
+, Aaron Bancroft, Edward Prescott, and
ers. We find in the Ne,o. York american
following poem by one Of our own contribu
s-a daughter Of Massachusetts-sugsested By
recent events connected with this effort.
c Ladies' Answer to the Bunker Hill Appeal
The trumpet.call
Of Freedom hath gone FORTH Whittier
We are coming, va are coming
We have heard the thrilling call;
We are coming from the hillside,
We are coming from the hall
The city pours its thousands,
And the hamlet sends its pride,
As fought our patriot sires Of old,
In battle side by side.
Again the call hath walked US,
As it walked our fathers then,
When the voice that thrilled the mountains
Thrilled the valley and the glen.
We are coming, we are coming,
The daughters of the brave,
The memory of the patriot dead
From cold neglect to save.
Holy and dear to all our hearts
Those hero sires of old,
Who left the herd upon the lea,
The ploughshare in the mould
We are coming to the rescue
We answer for the free;
The green graves of the slaughtered dead
4 hallOwed shrine must be.
We are coming, we are coming.
Again their deeds to tell,
Til the solid marble beareth
Their names where first they fell,
Joying to pour their hearts best blood
On soil so rich and free,
And watering with that noble stream
Tie tree of Liberty.
Now from each household Of our land
Beneath its ample shade,
we are coming, we are coming
Be the thrilling answer made.
We are coming, we are coming,
TO breathe its hallowed air;
Weare coming, We are coming,
We are coming, we are coming
High thoughts our bosoms fill;
One watchword wukens every heart.
Tie name Of Bunker Hill.
There Freedoms fire was lighted,
And its flame was broad and high,
Til Weakened and rescued land
Sent Il? its battle-cry
odd Massachusetts " dost thou need,
To gem thy 'lordIy crown
Aught richer than that battlefield
Which tells Of thy renown'
Home Of tie pilgrim sires who crossed
The waste and trackless sea!
Was it not meet that on thy sol.
The first brave strife should be
Dear to thy children in thy home,
Dear to thine eX!es far
To freedoms sons in every age
1t shines beacon star.
We are coming, we are coming,
To raise an altar-shriIe
Sacred to Freedoms honored name
On hallowed soil of thine.
We are coming, we are coming,
That thy martyrs brave and free,
In the record Of the Future,
Shall eer be linked with thee
That upon thy glory never
One dimming shade may fall
We are coming from the hillside,
We are coming from the hail.

She is thiriy-four days from the latter port
and whilst there learned from the officers

ships bound to New York, that the Chi
nese had attacked an American frigate be-
tween Whampoa and Lintin, IN the night
supposed to have been taken for an En-
glish vesseI-when fight commenced be-
tween the iunks and Americans, in which
it is computed 800 Chinese were killed =
The town of Whampoa, it is also said,

LEGISLATURE OF MAINE;
IN THE SENATE.
THURSDAY March. 5.

THURSDAY March. 5.
The bill repeating the charter of the
Kennebec Dam Company was taken up,
and the amedment proposed by Mr. Eaton,
providing that the Act shall take effect
from after its passage, instead of after the
first OF August, as provided by the bill, was
adopted. The bill then passed TO be en-
crossed.
Passed to be epacted-Bill to change
names Of certain persons-addtiona to an
Act to annex the town Of W ales to the coun-
ty of Kennebec.
FRIDAY, March. g.
Mr. Holt moved reconsideration of the
vote whereby the Senate repealed an act
Incorporating the Kennebec Dam Co.
Mr. W nj Reed thought that it was all
idle to talk about extending the time for
these corporators to find whether they had
thrown away money enough on that dam
or not He had no idea that another cent
would ever be laid out there again by this
company. If such would be the case it
would seem to be an act of kindness in the
Legislature to step in, and prevent them
from losing any more in the project than
they had already done, by annulling their
charter.
The Senate refused to reconsider.
Bill to divorce Ebenezer and Mary Cobb
was taken up and after some discussion,
which will be given hereafter, was indeE
initely postponed.
Resolve to continue and repair the
Boom on Aroostook river was indefinitely
postponed and a new resolve introduced by
MIR Smith.
IN THE HOUSE.
THURSDAY, March. 5.
The House again went into committee
ofthe whole for the consideration of Sc
boomook Sluiceway. The subject was de.
bated by Messrs Kennedy E II Allen, and
Nc Mahon against the BILL and by Mes
srs Getchell and Coburn IN favor of it.
The committee then rose, reported pro-
gress, and the House adjourned
FRIDAY, March 6.
The House again went into Committee
of the Whole to consider the bill to incor-
porate the Seboomook Sluiceway Conpa-
ny. Mr. Hamlin resumed and concluded
his remarks Mr. Fessenden replied
Mr. Shaw and Mr. Coburn followed in sup
port Of the bill The committee then rose
reported the bill to the House, and asked to
be discharged from the further considera-
ton of the subject.
Mr. Carey then spoke against the bill and
moved to refer it to the next Legislature
Mr. Allen followed on the same side. The
question was then taken by yeas and nays
and the motion sustained, yeas Sc, nay:

Our REPRESENTATIVES,. We take pleasure in
copying the following very favorable notice of
Mn. MoRsE's remarks the Seboomok Sluce
question, from the correspondence of the Port
land Advertiser.
Mr.. Nj of Bath, said il was usual for
the opponents of bill to present their OBJ
jections before they call upon the Commit
tee who reported it to give their reasons in
favor of the measure But as the oppo-
nents seemed disposed to press its friends
to take the floor first. they might have the
advantage of it. Mr.. Morse said this YVES
no new project He stated some of the
circumstances connected with its history
during the last session. At the last SEES
sion, the Senate passed the Bill, but the
House thought they had not sufficient in
formation on the subject, and referred it
TO this Legislature, and provided for sur
vey to obtain further light. He alluded to
the fact that the Land Agent had stated to
the committee that the lands in the vicinity
have been purchased with the expectation
that this Sluiceway would be made. He
considered this strong argument in ia
yor ofihs measure. He commended that
there was no probability that this proposed
Sluiceway would drain off the waters ofthe
Penobscot to the injury of the navigation
ofthat river The SIuice is to be guarded
in every particular. The bottom Of it is
to be on level with the common low wa
ter level Of the Penobscot river, therefore
it cannot take water from that river ex-
cept during freshets. Mr. Morse made a
very clear statement Of the facts in the
case, and argued from them with a consd-
cradle degree of fluency. He was listen
ed to by the members with much attention,
and this is the best evidence of good speak
ing. He acquitted himself very handsome
". The respectable town of Bath has no
reason to be ashamed of her Representa-
tive.

"WHo ARE THE FEDERALISTs!"

The Lincoln Patriot endeavors in one whole col
lief that the Democratic Wings a re the "Federal-
sts' and that Gen Ha rson is the father of feder-
alism. This is falsehood SO gIaring, we dare not
insult readers by wasting time in dsproving it.
If the Patriot wishes to know g TVho the fed
erass, let him inquire into the political history of
the leaders of the loco foco party in this State, to
begin with and ifhe don't find ederalists enough TO
sink any decent party, it will be because he has be-
come politically blind. Let name few:
Reuel Williams, Senator in Congress, was one
the most rigid of the old Hartford Convention
Federasts, and advocated the federal doctrines
throughout the last war; and was the ring eader of
the mob who hung president Madison, in efigy at
augusta .Noau, no measure can be taken by the
loco foco party, until letters have been sent to
foco papers have the impotence 10 talk about has
democracy in the same brca;h that they pronounce
Gen. Harrison, FEEDER list We appeal t. the SOL
diers in this county who fought under Harrison dur
ing the last war; there not few of them-they
can guess whether Harrison, was federalist.
Robert p. Dunlap, was another shining "blue-
lght,' and yet the locos endorsed his democracy
by making him Governor.
Gorham Parks, the great defeated is another of
the same stamp, as the people of til county very
we'll know. He has been greatly honored ly this
sef-styea democratic party, and is Of the main
p lars of the &rty.
We might enumera'e many others of the present
democratic leaders who were among the straitest of
old "ariford Convention "blue light federalists,
but we for5ear, for The present. The Patriot is quite
welcome 10 all the capital it make out of old
defnnci federalism, and the Cllley murder, into the
bargain
