THE GREEN MOUNTAIN BOY.

By JESSE Il. DOW.
10 give me my fathers silent gun
Baptized in the blood of LeyinGtun
Aid over my youthful bosom t'lng
His powder -horh with its crimson string,
And spread around me his blanket warm,
That may battle the winters storms
So bless .ie, mother, with tears OF JOY,
For am wild Green Mountain boy.
The hills that smile in the morning beam,
And echo lle eagles maiin scream;
TIL, lady rivers that howl along
Like The gusty tide of drinking song;
II. pensive vale and the laughing lea,
Th7t came through the Revolution lree
They wait to echo my shout of JOY,
For am a wild Green Mountain boy.
Oh tell me rot that the Sorth forget
The breast that eapCd TO the bayonc',
when Futav MINGLED her Goun''in's flood
with the crimson tide of New England blood,
An the soldier droof = mi f,hc iahgled vines,
And found grave in the CHrolinesi
Oh, shell receive lie with shouts ofjoy
For an wild Green MourttGn boy.
Nv Gr1udsro stood, with his moun,aineers,
IN the sunny wales of the cavaliers,
And IN Grid amid the syyln gls0,
TO the wild halo Of Marlon's m0,
And listen'd 10 Sumptcr's rifles ring
And bnthd his temples in .Iasper's sprink:
The rafting bullets he heard with JOY,
For he was wild Green Mountain boy.
IIo! we who boast, meath southern sun,
Have We n greater than Bennington
Or sleep ycu. fathers in glory now
Above the h NJ II - nunker's hrowl
Your martial spirits in days gone by.
Knew how the men ofthc North could die;
And he E3urh:4st sncer cannot destroy
The fame o.ihe wild Green Mountain boy.
Nv hear, in its morning dream a-pires
To reach the fame ofmy mountain srcs,
To spring 10 he battles signal note,
And bid the lag OF their glory float;
And would haste from NY mountain glen
r ioin the children of Marion's men;
And loud the valleys should peal my 10Y,
For am a wild G 'ccn Mountain boy.

The Life Gunrds:nnu.

The Life Guard of Washington -
Who can think upon this band of gallant
spirits without feeling glow of patriot
ism warming his heart, and stirring up
the sluggish feelings Of his soul ! Fancy
paints again the figures which history
has suffered TO fade away, as the shad-
ows departed from the magic mirror Of
Cornelius Agrppa; and the heroes of the
past start up before us like the clan of
Rodericl Dhu at the sound of their
chieftain's whistle. They come from
Cambridge, and from the Hudson, from
Trenton and from Princeton, from \ orIl-
town, and from the Brandywine, and
from mountain pass, and woody vale,
gathering in battle array around the
lowly bed of their sleeping leader, amid
the solitary shades of Vernon.
The life guardsmen are fast fading
away. One by one the aged members
have departed, and now Lees corporal
slumbers beside his commander. Their
march of life is over.
A more efficient corps never eXistet
OH this side of the Atlantic than the Late
Guard. Animated by one motive, guild
ed by one object, they surrounded thei
commander-in-chief, and gloried in bcin!
known as his body guard. Was Their,
any difficult duty to perform ! it fell tt
this body, and CALAMITY did they perform
the service entrusted TO them. The ey,

At length, when they raised then eyes to
their guest, his face was pallid-a Wild
ness was manifested in his eyes and his
frame appeared to be stitching in death.
They sprang 10 him.
Forward on-to-Princeton !" said
he, in cold whisper; and then the last
Life Guardsman joined his companions in
heaven.
The next day a numerous body of
strangers followed the old veteran to the
tomb and the widow Greedy placed

THE MECIuANsC,s SATURDAY NIGHT,

On sweet is the home of the toll worn Mechanic,
When labor is hush'd in the stiffness of night;
When the hum of commotion, disaster and panic,
Is still as the stars in their orbits of light;
But sweetcr by far is the neat little mansion,
When o'crlowing boards of his industry speak;
When the sweat covered wages by widest eSpan-
sion,
Keplenish his stores at the close of the week.
With plenty all smiling in natural splcndor-
With products of Nature, delicious and sweet,
And the choicest of vands his earnings can render,
All clustering high in the lowly retreat
How rich is the banquct--how great the profusion;
How happy the man when his labodnss cease ;
When his efforts yielding the greatest diffusion,
Ofharmony, happiness, pleasure and peace.
Oh, bright is the hearth of the workman at even,
And kindly the feelings his bosom must know,
The bread he has earned by the sweat ofhis brow,
And how sweet is the scene OF the family OF plea
The holy affections ;hcy fondly retain;
When he clasps to his breast his own loving trca-
sure
And fondcs his little ones over again.
Yc spirits of mercy look down on his dwelling,
And guard his abode in the midst of alarm;
When the surgc5 of poverty fdghtul are swelling.
Or irowns DER his cottage adycrsity's storm.
Oh come like pilo, of truth on the ocean,
And guide his lone bark to the haven he'd seek ;
And render his life in his country devotion,
As sweet as his home at the close of the week.

"TelI us about the battle Of Trenton

Hugh Maxwell, after resting his head

account of the
Battles Of Trenton mud Princeton,
The twcnty-tiilh of December, I77G,
was a gloomy day in the American camp,
An army of thirty thousand British sol
dcrs lay scattered along the opposite side
of the freezing Delaware, from Bruins
wick to the environs Of. Philadelphia.
Gen. Howe commanded the British can
Torment, and Lord CORVALLIS was on
the march from New York to reinforce
him.
The British soldiers were flushed with
success. They had driven us through
the Jerseys. New York Island and the
North River were in their power. Thcy
had tracked us by our bloody footprints
along the gloomy, though snow-clad
hills: and they looked eagerly forward
to the day when the head of our Ilustri-
Gus Washington should be placed upon
Temple Bar, and the mob OF London
should cry ont while they pointed at it.,
"thcrc rests the head of Traitor" The
banner OF England 1oatcd heavily in the
wnuv air, and the fur.clad IIcssian pa
ced his rounds on the dismal hills, with
his bayonct cleaning in the stormy light ;
videttes were seen gaIIoping along the
hll-sides, and the yallcs echoed with
the martial airs of England. But in our
camp all was sadness. Five thousand
men, alarmed, and worse clad, without
tents or even camp utensils, sat crouch
ing over their lonely watch-ircs.
But this was not all. The crafty Brit
ish General had offered a pardon to all
who would desert the American cause,
and many men Of property, aye : even
members Of Congress, recreant to honor
and principle, pocketed their patriotism
with the proclamation, and baseIy be-
trayed their country in the hour of her
peril. Members Of Congress did say

the Eastern side of the continent of North |
America having been only partially explored,
has hitherto presented barrier to encroach-
ment from that quarter; but settlements are
already advancing far into the heart of the
country, and parties of hunters have lately
traverSed the interior, and even penetrated to
the shores of the Pacific.
The trade Of Upper California at present
consists in the expectation of hides, tallow,
manteca, horses to the Sandwich islands, grain
for the Russian establishments at Sitka and
Kodrah, and in the disposal of provisions to
whale ships and other vessels which touch the
coast.
The Spanish settlers in California enjoy an
almost uninterrupted state of good health
Many attain the age of eighty and ninety,
and some have exceeded hundred years.
Part I'd. chap. XIV.
The same author describes the harbor of
San Francisco as one of the finest in the world
in dimensions capable of containing the
whole British navy, easy of access, and affor-
ding a safe anchorage.
| Having given some account of the last
named place, Vancouver says: "This sketch
will be sufficient without further comment, to
convey some idea of the inactive spirit of the
people, and the unprotected state of this port
which, | should conceive ought to be prln-
cipal object of the Spanish Crown as key
and barrier TO their more southern and valua-
BILE settlements on the borders of the Pacific y
VOL 8. page I5., London edition of 1870
The same author gives the most fiattering ac-
count of the fertility, resources and climate oil
California. The harbor of Monterey he states
to be excellent; the climate as salubriouS as
any in the known world.
With these descriptions, Kotzebue, in HI:
f Narrative of his voyages in 1918 fully agrees
See vol. l. chap. TX. The latitude OF ST
Francisco, he fixes at 81 deg. As min. 33 sec
Longitude l22 deg. II min. 80 sec. west. Th
longitude of Monterey, according to Vancou
yer, is % deg. % min. 45 sec.
Mills, in his "History of Mexico" publishe
in 1924, gives the population of old CaliioI
nia (the Southern Intendancy) as not exceed
ing 1000 or 5000, though the district con
tans at least that number of sunare lea%.'nN- z,

of the country and the abundance OF tn
