BALTIMORE, December

Dreadful Disaster T'reire Men Drowned.-W We
regret to learn from report that schooner which
runs as packet between this city and West River,
Anne Arundel county, capszed soon after leaving
the latter place Saturday, and Immediately sunk,
(being the time heavily laden with valuable cargo
Of wheat tobacco tLc by which four respectable in
drvduals, named Hopkins Bat,ee, Gale, and Smith,
drowned, together with eight negroes being ev-
ely soul or board.
Another report says vessel was to capsize near
by the above which it s feared will prove equally dis
estrous; though we entertain hopes that in both in
stances, there may be some exaggeration.
During Friday night and Saturday there was an al
most continued hurricane on the Chesapeake Bay,
and fear much damage has been done, especially to
the bay craft L. Clipper.

\ little sword for arms,
At his Lett side hangs free.
Ger the vast plain, the morn,
a paly Iustre threw,
The man with the little hat
The troops, goes to review.
The ranks present their arms,
Deep rolls the drum the while;
Recovering then the troops,
Before the chief dciile.
Captains and Generals round
In circles formed appear;
The chief, to the first word,
Now whispers in his ear.
The word goes round the ranks,
Rcsounds along the line,
That word they give is, FRANCE
The answer, ST. HELINE.
Tis there at midnight hour,
The grand review, they say,
Is by dead Cesar held,
In the Champs Elysccs.

TIE MIDNIGHT REVIEW.

At midnight from his grave,
The drummer woke and rose,
And beating loud the drum,
Forth on his errand he goes.
Stirr'd by his heshless arms,
The drumsticks rise and fall;
He beats the loud retreat,
Reveille and roll call.
So strangely rolls that drum,
So deep it echoes round
Old soldiers in their graves,
To life start at the sound.
Both they in farthest north,
Stiff in the ice that lay,
And who, too warm rcpose,
Beneath Italian clay.
Below the mud of Nile,
And meath the Arabian sand,
Their burial-place they quit,
And soon to arms they stand.
And at midnight from his grave,
The trumpcter arose;
And mounted on his horse,
A loud shrill blast he blows.
On airy coursers then,
The cavalry are seen,
Old sQuadrons, erst renowned,
Cory and gashed, ween.
Beneathth casque their blanched skull.
Smile grim, and proud their air,
As in their bony hands,
Their long, sharp swords they bare!
And at midnight from his tomb,
The chief awoke and rose,
And followed by his staff,
With slow steps on he goes.
A little hat he wears,
A coat quite plain has he,
