FREEDOM,s CALL.
A. WHITNEY,

1t broke on the hush Of morn
1t startled the dull midnight,
Like the stirring peal of "a battle horn
1t summoned them forth to fight:
1t rose DER the swelling hill,
By the meadows green it was heard,
Calling out for the strength of the ireeman's will
And the might of the freeman 3 sword,
rha rivers heard the noise
And the valleys rung it out;
And every heart leapt high at the voice
OF that thrilling battle shout
They sprung from the bridal bed
From the pallet of labor's rest,
And they hurried away to the field ofths dead
Like tardy marriage guest
They left the plough in the corn
They left the steer in the yoke,
And away from mother and child that morn,
and the maiden's first kiss they broke,
In the shower of the deadly shot,
In the lurid van of the war,
Sternly they stood, but they answered not
To the hircling's wild hurrah!
But still as the broodng storm,
Ere it lashes ocean to foam
The strength of the free was in every arm,
And each heart on its home.
On their pleasant homes they thought
They prayed to their fathers Cod
And forward they went till their dear blood
bought
The broad free land they trod

Extract from The London Chronicle, from

The American sandard is thus des

"The colors of the American fleet have
a snake with thirteen railles, the four

of going to strike, with this motto; "Don'l
tread on me-" 1t is a rule in heraldry

she never wounds until she has given no.

other of her kind shows such generosity.
When undisturbed and in peace, she does

Of any kind They are latent in the roof
OF her mouth, and even when extended

not acquainted with her TO be weak and

small, are decisive and fatal. She is sol

when it is necessary for their preseva-

means OF Giges'ing her food, and certain
destruction to her enemies. The power
OF fascination attributed 10 her by gene
