LIBERTY SONG FOR 1914.

1lDlL IL l. CN4N u L VII IO44.
TUNE-"ISee them on their Winding way."
The glorious cause is moving on,
The cause once led by Washington
The cause which made our fathers free,
The righteous cause of liberty,
Our ranks now swell, our votes now tell
On freedoms cause we love so well,
While slavery's power, now waning fast,
In midnight shades shall soon be east.
Then labor, labor, labor still,
Each vote declares lreeman's will;
Soon Heavens own gilt the slaves shall be
The boom Of glorious liberty.
Tell US no more of slavery'S powers,
Ills. weakness when compared with ours
Ills Satan's power, condemned to die
Freedom is strengthened from Oh high;
Tyrants must fail, their courage quals;
But ours, inspired by Heaven, prevails;
Thrice armed are we in righteousness,
Aud this our foes themselves confess.
Then onward, onward, onward sun,
See how our ranks with freemen fill;
Soon ore our land the world shall see
Triumphant, glorious liberty.
Four years the freemen now have stood
And breasted prosecutions tiood
Begirt with truth they kept the field,
Nor threats nor hattrry made them yield.
Their flag so fair still floats in air,
And mark, this year, "twI still be there"
Inscribed with letters bold and free,
This"one great idea," LIBERTY!
Then sound it, sound, sound it strong,
That freedoms right, that slavery's wrong
And soon this truth shall all men see,
And vote with us for liberty.
We worship at no human shrine,
We worship only Truth divine;
This truth, that God made all men free,
And never sanctioned slavery
His WILL we say, is such to-day,
That fifty slaves may truly say,
"We own ourselves, and Henry Clay
Doth but the ROBBERS right display,
In stealing these our rights away;
o, may he live to see the day
When unto God he'll bow his knee,
And give US back our liberty"
When he'll do this, and only then,
Can he expect of honest men
The executive to he
In this, the land of liberty.
If still the lust of wealth and might
Shall cloud, and mar, and blind his sight
Ofjustice, equity, and right,
Then down to dark oblivon's night
He'll go with curses on his head,
Who might have hosts of freemen led
His name deep sunk in infamy,
While Birney's shines with liberty.

The Unity and greatness Of our Object.

We have not seen more forcble presentation
of the paramount magnitude of our object present
ed more cCmpactIy than in the following resolu-
tons, which were passed at large and enthusiast
tic Liberty meeting in Philadelphia. Give US
tariff that will protect the body, bank on which
we eau draw for liberty, acurrcncy that will pass
human beings free, sub-lreasnry that will receive
no coin less than man, internal improvements
that will elevate all the people, and an equitable
distribution of the human rule; and the minor ques-
tons can easily he setled.-Morning Chronicle.
THE RIGHT SPIRIT.
Resolved, That we are in favor of tariff that
will be sufficient in its magnitude to project the
body of every human being in the United States;
ana that after establishing such tariff, it will not
be dlthcult to adjust thar minor and insignificant
tariff which projects the garments.
Resolved, That we are in favor of n United
States Bank that will honor draft drawn by the
poorest citizen for "lc liberty, aud The pursuit of
hnpplness;" and that after establishing such an
lnsLntion, 1t will not be difficult to regulate an in
stutlon for the benefit of those sordid minds that
deal in nothing bat dollars and cents
Resolved, That we 90 for law establishing a
sound national currency, which shall maks every

We give below letter we hive received from
our suffering but heroic friend, CHARLES T. Tor
REY. The handwriting indicates physical debil-
ily, but it viii be seen that his spirit is strong and
energetic as ever.
Are there any who profess to be abolitionists
who, in church or STATE, are giving their moral or
political influence on The side Of slavery Let all
such read this letter from the prison, and remen-
Der that every Liberty vote, prayer OF petition will
be an additional weight upon the lever which is
already shaking the great BastiIe of slavery
Throw them on, then-in Gods name, do it
Think Of Torrey, wearing out his lie in "a dun
geon-giying his LIBERTY sacrifice to the cause
of the slave. Shall zoe refuse our coles and our
influence to that cause? Are our old party and
sectaran preiudires dearer to us than life was to
Loyejoy, or liberty is to Torrey' Liberty men
when the advocates of shareholders, in church or
state, seek your votes, your money, or your infu-
ence, remember Torrey and Walker, and STAND
FIRM,

GENERAL INTELLIGENCE.
EXTENSIVE CONFEDERATION IN
BROOKLYN

Cur CITY was visited at 8 o'clock, thi
morning with one OF The most extensive
fires which has happened in many years
1t broke out in the engineers room OF lht
extensive Carpet Factory of Messrs
A. & E. S Higgins, of New York, sit.
uated on the corner OF Bridge and Tall
man streets. which was soon mass of
RUNS, spreading the flames Simultaneous
| y upon the Bridge, Tallnan and York
streets. The factory contained large
quantity OF valuable machinery, which was
driven by steam. The building was
owned by W. J Cornell E q, of This ci,
ty. The brick walls OF the building
seemed to defy all edoIts of the fremen,
and SO rapid was the spreading of the
flames that six or eight buildings were
afre at one time, The BROOKLYN Fire
Department finding it Impossible TO arrest
the progress Of the fire, with the numbe:
of engines on hand sent to New York
and gave The alarm, which soon brought
to their assistance some ten or twelve en-.
glnes, under command of Mi. Anderson,
Chief Engineer OF that city, who soon
formed line through Jay street to the
river: These engines had great effect,
especially two powerful machiues, which
are called PhiIadel phia engines.
The flames were soon arrested after the
trial Of the New York engines. The
Brooklyn companies were mostly engag.
ed in mping out the public aud private
cis'erus ia the neie hborhood. The build.
ings on the Nouh side Of York street,
corner Of Bridge street, were saved by
the cxer,ons of the inhabitants of such
buildings, who procured small engine
used in the fasIory of Mr.. Howe, by
which they kept stream of water upon
the front as often as necessary, taking wa
ter from their own cisterns.
The Factory was insured for $20,0O0
five thousand of which was n the Hart
ford Insurance Companies. The build.
lngs destroyed, with the exception of the
Factory, were mostly wooden, of one and
a halt and two stories. The machinery
&c. in the factory is reported to have cost
100000. The other buildings are es-
timated at $4,000.
