for Polands wrongs; and the successors Of the
Great Frederick, the drill.sergeant Of Europe,
seen flying across the sandy plains that surrounds
their capital, right glad If they may escape captiyi

Russiai Is he secure in his share Of the spoIls Of
Poland No. Suddenly we see, sir, six hundred

burned it seemed as if the earth was lighted up,
that the Nations might behold the scene As that
mighty sea Of fire gathered and heayed aud rolled
upward, and yet higher till its flames licked the

the notion that his destiny pointed onward 10 uni

he thought, should bow down before him. But as
