THE RATTLE AT MONTERREY

THE BATTLE AT MONTEREY.
Let the voice of rejoicing swell out on the air,
Let the bonfire startle the gloom with its glare,
Let the tones Of the trumpet ring joyous and
clear
And the thunder OF cannon break harsh on the
earl
Bring the minstrel his harp; let his hand sweep
the wires,
While the JOY of the moment his bosom inspires
Let the fires Of old kindle up while he sings,
And burn in the music that flows from the
strings!
Bind wreaths for the victors who routed the foe,
Whose words made the life tide in rivulets
Who ragged like storm mid the battles fierce
roar,
And crimson'd their hands in the enemy's gore!
cheer for the victors who yielded the brand
In the midst of the carnage with terrible hand;
A shout for the heroes who shone in the fight
AS the meteor CLEANS through the shadows Of
night
Once more wake the cannon, let thunder be
born
Which shall startle the ear of the slumbering
morn!
Let the shouts Of rejoicing increasingly swell
Thro forest, DER hilltop, down valley and
dell!
But bark, for moment! 10 soft on the air
| Comes a sound like a sigh from the bosom Of
care
Like the moan of the heart broken widow it
| seems,
AS she bends DER the orphan that smiles in its
| dreams
The flower of hope have been robbd Of its
bloom;
The light Of her being is srouded in gloom;
And the voice of rejoicing breaks now on her
Like the death knell of all that her spirit held
dear!
Hush the thunder Of cannon! with sorrowine
The mother deploreth the loss of her child!
The tears of the sister flow fast DER her cheek
And the grief of the father no language may
speak.
Oh, God! that the reign of Obstruction were
That the nations might revel in carnage nc
| more;
That the sword in its scobbard forever nigh
| rest,
And the bird in the cannon, find place for he
nest
Oh though, who couldst weep Ger the tomb o
the dead,
Where the tear of the sorrowing mouner wa
shed:
Oh thou, who couldst govern the storm a
thy will,
Say now to the tempest OF passion "be still ?

THE soUNDEsT SLEEPER ON REC ORD


(The following story is taken from the Bal
timore Sun, and seems to have secured the en-
tire confidence of the Editor of that paper)
4 Scrio- Comic Accident.--On Tuesday last,
a strapping colored man had mounted himself
on the tafferel of vessel lying at Bowly's
wharf, and was stretched at full length, ia
king a snooze 20 himself, with the water be-
meath him on one side, and the deck of the
vessel on the other. He had been lying in
this unsafe condition for some time, when he
became little restless, and in shifting his po-
sition, rolled overheard into the dock. Seve-
raj gentlemen on the wharf having observed
him fall, Immediately ran on board Of the YES
sci, one of them carrying with him long
pole, but not the slightest trace of the man
could be discovered. The pole was then used
for the purpose of feeling for the body, and it
finally struck on substance supposed to be
that of the unfortunate negro. On attempting
to draw the pole up, something heavy seemed
to be attached to the lower end, but with a
little assistance it was raised, and the suppo-
sed drowned man found to be clinging on to it
with both hands, but little worse for his duck
ing. On being asked how it happened that he
laid so quietly on the bottom, he replied with
the utmost innocence, why, bless the Lord,
massa, was sound asleep, until you stuck
that long pole into me, which woke me up
and almost knocked the BRET out of my body.
This may seem like fiction, but it is serious
fact, and the negro still persists in averring
that he was sound asleep until the punching
of the pole awoke him up.

WILMINGTON MARKET-Nov. l:

Naval Stores--Our review of this day week
left the Naval Store market with downward
tendency. On Saturday, sales were made at
So. This was caused by the prospect of a rise
in the rivers, which, however, did not take
place, sufficient to effect prices The news
from Europe, reached here in time to have eff
feet upon the market on Monday, and the con-
sequence was an advance above the rates paid
during the early and middle part of the former
week. Sales were made on Monday at So As
a So 49, On Tuesday, the rates of the pre-
vious day were paid. On Wednesday, prices
again receded, and about 1900 barrels have
been sold since late yesterday evening up to
the time of making up our report to-day, at
So 40. The market appears very firm to-day
at this price. In Spirits we hear of only two
small lots having been sold, which brought
