Old ChiDpeWa,

Air" Rosin the Bow"
We are up! Don't you hear the Wing thunder
We come with hearty huzza
What foe ever heard, without terror,
The war cry of old Chippewa!
CHoRUs-The war cry, &c.
From Queenstown. where nohly he battled,
Niag'ra, where CORY he lay,
The people re-echo the thunder,
And gather for old Chippewa.
From Mexico's snowy sierras,
Her wales where they bask in the day,
Comes the voice of his valor and virtue,
The glory of Old Chippewa.
North, South, East and West, it arises,
No faction that thunder can stay;
il halls with the blessings of freemen,
Their cham pIon and choice-Chippewa
His breast has been plowed by the British,
And forty campaigns make him gray;
But we'll wreath his high brow with laurel,
And glory in old Chippewa.
When Mexico's millions were offered,
From his country to win him astray;
d" Tho poor, I'll lore, Iipe, and die by her -
So answered our old Chippewa.
The hero that can't lose a battle
WIN FIELD wins the fields in each fray;
Well be-while Scott fights for our freedom
SCoTT FREE, with our old Chippewa.
A Lundy's Lane fuss with the British,
a fuss on Chepultepec's day
Thus the feathers will fly from the Locos,
When they come across old Chippewa.
IT'S strange, though in stratagem able,
He ecannot make faint in the fray,
A fall-save when riddled with bullets
Ne'er happens to old Chippewa.
With the high soul of honor to nerve him,
And good soup his stomach to stay,
Come Mexicans, British, or Locos
They're nothing to Old Chippewa.
The Locos selected leader,
But their managing Masters said NAY;
So they straw-stuff'd the coat OF hero,
And set it 'gainst Old Chippewa.
OOA iSllO"e lucy i6 llIcU VI lhtlE i6IIeiSs
And shrink from the trick with dismay;
All true-hearted Democrats spurn it,
And rally round Old Chippewa.
Home toll, with the iron of England,
Free Trade Pierce would pierce and would
slay,
Bot Scott likes the ore of the Keystone
He used it at old Chippewa.
No dcspot will dare to insult US,
No traitor our Union betray,
With him who has bled to defend US,
Our President-Od Chippewa.
The pure and the wise and the noble,
His country's best guardian and stay;
In camp or In cabinet peerless,
Oh, who is like old Chippewa!
Make way for the torrenti is coming,
The millions in battle array;
Their glad shouts will soon cleave the wilkln,
For Victory and old Chippewa.

Testimony Of q Democrat and
SOutherDer,

We presume that among our Demo-
cratic fellow citizens at least, the opinion
of Ex-Governor John A. Quitman, of Mis-
sissippi, is entitled to some weight. The
genuineness Of the Democracy and his
honest but some what misdirected devo-
ton to the South, have, we believe, never
been questioned, even by the bitterest of
his political opponents. A gentleman of
New Orleans, who was fellow passenger
of Gov. Quitman few days since on a
steamer bound up the river, asked his
opinion of Gen. Scott.
Sir said the Governor, in reply, the
American people have never done Gen.
Scott justice! The more that mans cha
racter and claims to distinction are can
vassed, the higher will be the stand he
will take in the admiration and gratitude
of his countrymen.
Il have been surprised and astonished
CONTINUED Gov. Quitman) that among the
Wing party there should be found sin
gle man unwilling to give him cordial
and hearty support. As to his being
controlled by Seward that rs mere aut!
know the man, and he will be control
led by no one contrary to his own con-
victions of what is right. And, as to his
being. true to the South, l consider him
the most unexceptionable man on that
score among all the Wings who have
been named in connection with the Pres
idency. | am Democrat; and, conse-
quently, differing widely as l do from
Gen. Scott on every political question,
can never give him my support; but if
there is a Wing in the Union for whom,
under any circumstances, could cast my
vote for President, that Wing is Win
field Scott
Such, in substance, we understand, was
the reply Of brave and gallant old sold
ier, when his opinion of noble and much
abused companion in arms was asked
We have before heard that these were the
sentiments Of Gov Quitman. If we mis-
take not, there is gentleman in this city,
"a Democrat,) and another at Holly
Springs, Mississippi, who served with
Gov. Q in the Mexican war, to whom,
some months since, he made declarations
almost identical with the foregoing. This
testimony, from one of the highest Dem
ocratic sources, taken in connexion with
Gen. SCOTS hearty, unqualified, and en-
thusiastic approval of the Wing platform,
(Which it is now plain and palpabIe to the
ac0rld is S0uHder, stronger, and more Just
to tie .S01tb, on sectional questions, that
the Democratic platform these facts,we
say, OUGHT to be, and we doubt not will
be, satisfactory not only to all Wings but
to every man in the country.

remarks III is curious to observe how very
largely the Revenue of Great Britain depends
on what goes into the mouth The
duties oibetween thirty and thirty-one millions
are levied upon articles of universal consump-
ton IN England. All but mere fraction of
this may be some sort regarded as voluntary
taxation so far as the consumers are concern
ed"
But the most striking feature to us, of the
whole exhibit. is the severe taxation upon one
article of American manufacture, to the ex-
tent of gi, 100000. or $22, 100000 annually.
Instead of taxing the real and personal prop
erty of the Kingdom aud the individual incomes
to such an extent as will cover largely the ex-
penditures Of the nation, those articles are
taxed heavily which enter into the daily con-
sumption Of the lower classes.
