A Song for the Fourth Of July.
BY ]. McC.

Nu9 lOf the H0M?tn u Jniy.
BY ]. McC.
Rejoice now on Columbia's shore,
And let your cannon's loudly roar
Der every hill and plain.
The gore she'd by patriots brave,
Still speaks in thunder from the grave,
Let freedom ever reign.
Like eagles to their mountain prey,
Columbia's SONS will still display
Thor valor in the field;
When tyranny their land invadcs
They'll steep in blood their battle blades,
And debut never yield
AS stars rcvolvc around the sun,
AS rivers to tho ocean run.
So should our thanks cntwine,
Around that everlasting name,
From whom our blessed country came,
The God of love divine.
Twas lie that to o"r fathers gave
Hearts to prefer an honorcd grave
10 any princcly state:
tic ncrvcd the soldiers trembling arm.
And sent him forth without alarm
TO make our nation great.
The soldier wcnt-'twas Washington =
And never has crcaton's sun
Upon his equal shone =
The very mention Of that name.
Fills every soul with freedoms flame,
And virtnc's cause alone
Then OH the fourth of each July,
Let's raise our country's banner high,
That all the world may SEQ
How firmly our Republic stands,
UnshalIcn by despotic bands,
The glory Of the free.

STOCKINGS, WASHING THE FEET, &c.
Much more of comfort to the feet depends
on the stockings than people are aware of :;
nothing can be worse than a stocking too
large or two small-the more common case
is its largeness; and when see cotton or
thread stocking tucked under at the toe, and
by the perspiration of the foot and the tread
become quit hard and compact, hard ridge
ola seam pressing on the toes, which show
the marks produced by the pressure all
over the surface, wonder how persons can
expect comfort.
The best stockings for general wear, are
those made of lambs wool, Virginia, and
Shetland knit. The pedestrian we'll knows
the difference on long days walk between
& cotton or one of woolssh knows that the
former soon becomes hard, damp and chilly,
with the moisture of the foot, whereas the
latter enables him to hear fatigue, defends
his foot from the friction Of the shoe, secures
it from blisters, and in every way admins
