How gracefully it flies;
Those pretty stripes--they seem to be
rainbow in the skies.''

And proudly drinks the light,
Ger oceans waves-in foreign climes,
symbol of our might"
Father-what fearful noise is that,
Like laundering of the clouds?
Why do the people wave their hats,
And rush along in crowds
1t is the voice of cannonry;
The glad shout of the free
This is a day to memory dear

And cheer as loudly as the rest
But, Father, why don't your
I'm getting old and k-but still
My heart is big with joy
I've witnessed many day like this
Shout ye aloud, my boy!"
"Hurrah! for Freedoms Jubilee! h
God bless our native land
And may live to hold the sword
Of Freedom in my hand!"
Well done, my boy-grow up and love #.
The land that gave you BIRTH
A home where Freedom loves to dwell
paradise on earth"

The Maine News.

The locos are Growing most Justify
over Maine. 1t would seem. from their
that the Presidential election
was really decided. and that the wings
might as well "give in." These locos
are grea, chaps TO make much out OF
a lil.le. We need no better Illustration
than their attempt to make great man
out of James x. Polk, although numer.
Gus others occur to Us. The Boston
Post comes out with what it calls the
represe nia.ion Of coon in 1910, as Tat
and sleek and we'll proportioned as all
good coons should be about this season;
and another which it calls a coon, bu;
which is no more like that respectable
animal than shitepoke is like an eagle.
He however calls il coon Of 1874. II
is thing Of "skin and bones" "a mere
skeleton" surrounded by amyriad OF
loco foco bloodsnckers or vampires,
who have already began TO prey upon
the emacia.ed carcass. The editor
must certainly have been imposed upon
by some naughty wing engraver, who
palmed upon him a representation OF
"Old Hickory" or Of the Republic itself
preyed upon as they both have been
by professed friends, whose main &C.
cupa,ion it seems to be is to suck their
very life blood.
Blu, wha. does this Maine news
amount to? Have the locos gained a
governor !! No; the same man that
they elected at the las, trial is re-elec'-
ed. So that nothing il gained there.
Have they gained any congressman! -
No. They have not yet obtained as
many as they had. Have they gained
in the Legislature! No! yet. Wha
in creation, then, are they Growing
about? Echo answers what! II the
wings had Dragged about Maine or hac
held out any inducements to show ,ha
in the State election they expected i
would 90 in their favor, the locos nigh
chuckle about it. But they did nc
+ such thing. We have told our friends
tina, in this election they need not conn
on Maine. We have, however, done
better than we expected. At the las
Congressional election the wings hac
to try three or four times, before they
could elect Severance, but this time
they have reelected him on the frs. ,ri
J al. We cannot ascertain that the loco
have elected more than one member
J and so they are thus far even, and
either party has any thing to crow Owe
about the result in Maine, it is the whig
, and not the locos.
