NEW HAMPSHIRE AND NEBRASKA.
a BALLAD FOR THE PEOPLE.


Inscribed 70 Hon. Thomas p. Florence, W. c.
BY Az Ex-cLERIcAL CONSTITUENT.
Now General Pierce, our President he
Said New Hampshire would stand as straight as
could be.
Whatever else might hap,
lie said they'd obey their Generals WILL
For he'd had from the spirit of Isaac HH
mighty assuring rap.
They'd go for Democracy, Slavery and War;
For Manifest Destiny, and Cuba as far
As the General would lead.
For though once lie had lost the saddle by force,
'Twasn't the Generals fault but the fault of his
horse,
And now, when they saw him we'll mounted of
course,
They'd follow, and fight, and bleed
SO with Toombs and Douglas, and all of that pack.
llowlng and snarling at the Generals back,
Ills battle-cry he raised,
OF Nebraska and Kanzas,' the Compromise line
Of Missouri should break like piece of old twine,
And Slavery being thing Divine
should'go wherever it pleased.
Then Marcy, and Cushing and Chauncey Burr
ana brohsoh' ana other Free Soilers that pere,
They echoed the Generals cry;
While tough old Guthrie stroked his chin,
And bade Jefferson Davis see begin
The process of Northern caving in
As the South waxed hot and bigb
For Everett and Clayton grew SO i'll,
That they went to bed, and left the bill
10 Seward, and Summer, and Chase;
While Norris and Broadhead, and all of that host
Who love liberty much, but slavery most,
And 20 Tor their patron, whatever the cost.
Were true to the time and place.
Then the Generals cry Of battle rolled
| Up through his native mountains old,
And summoned his friends and followers bold
To the help of slavery.
But the north wind heard the wall of slovos
And' shrieklng' rushed to its mountain caves,
Refusing to hear the cry;
And the hills of New Hampshire, white with age
Shook their craggy locks in a holy rage
AT the wrong to Liberty.
Then the woodsman with lifted axe stood still.
The miller forgot to feed his mill,
The smith the failing forge;
The housewife left baking bread
The sick and old rose up in bed,
AS gathering strength the summons dread
Rolled through Oach mountain gorge.
The minister paused in the midst of his text,
And with his wondering flock perpiexed.
Locked to the earth aud sky;

TRUE FREEDoM-How TO GAIN IT.

BY CHARLES MAcKAY.
We want flag, no Haunting flag,
For liberty to fight,
We want no blaze of murdorous guns
To struggle for the right
Our spears and swords are painted words.
The mind ourbattle plain;
We've won such victories before,
And so we shall again.
We love no triumph sprung of force
They stain her brightest cause;
IT'S not in blood that Liberty
Inscribes her civil laws.
She writes them on the peoples heart,
In language clear and plain
True thoughts have moved the world before,
And so they shall again.
We yield to none in earnest love
OF Freedoms cause sublime;
We join the cry Fraternity" !"
We keep the march of Time.
And yet we grasp no pike or spear,
Our victory to obtain,
We've won without their aid before,
And so we shall again.
We want no aid Of barricade,
To show front gainst wrong
We have citadel in Truth,
More durable and strong,
Calm words, great thoughts, unAinchng faith
Have never striven in yan
They've won our battles may time,
And so they shall again.
Peace, progress, knowledge, brotherhood
The ignorant may sneer,
The bad deny, but we rely
To see their triumph near.
No widows groan shall load our cause,
No blood of brethren slain,
We've won without such aid before,
And so we shall again.

A form unused to fail
Till from the mountains high and strong,
Sweeping his native plains along,
Borne onward by the mighty throng,
Came John p Hale,
Then the General halted looking aghast,
And swore as he would swear his last
Curses upon the fool
thought him numbered with the dead
Who shall destroy the hydra-head
OF his Internal school9'
Now the General from his sleep that night
Woke, trembling with great alright,
And calling Forney to bring light,
Went to the Senate room;
For he dreamed that Hale was there again,
And Dayton, and Chase, and a host Of such men
And family he said, returning then,
Foyney, pe hear our DOOM.
Through the Rotunda, wandering back,
A shadowy Giant invaded their track,
lInrrying 70 and fro.
Then the light from Forney's trembling arm
Fell as he shook with great alarm.
And behind the General, safe from harm,
lie stopped in the darkness low.
But the General was bold as such Generals are,
A habit he got in the Mexican war;
And he spoke dbore his breath -
Now be thou goblin damned he said,
With airs from below, or overhead,
Or sinful brother who leaves thy he'd,
Risking cold and death
1 hail thee in the Rotunda here,
Though my faithful servants mortal fear
Hath hid thee from human eye:
Speak, if thou art of woman bornl
Then Douglas answered low, in scorn,
General, lis only H.
Thanks to the Fates,' the General said,
4 feared some spirit of the dead
Was here tonight.
Thinking upon our awful rout
Surely, the Evil ono is out,
feel him in the gloom about
Forney, do strike light
Belchng his mingled oaths and wine
Blaspheming, and railing at things divine,
Douglas went raving round.
General he said, Il hope you sec
What comes of leaving preachers free,
upon your NortherR ground
In Russia sir, the priest is made
To follow his own lawful trade,
In his appointed sphere.
In Russia, sir the preacher seeks
The Rulers will before he speaks,
And so IL should be here.
Yes, sir, the Emperor and !,
CnooL;nr Of ,r;os.Ir I;l,o.4,
Agreed in thought and word
That every preacher in the land
Should serve the State as zee command,
And after hat the Lord.
You see the mighty mischief done,
Our Granite Bulwarks overthrown
BY these Religious fools.
The work and hope of years are lost
Yc Gods how mighty is the cost
To be Ambitions tools
oh for omnipotence one hour;
A wide and all-destroying power,
As once ut Rome there sat;
I'd hang your Northern clergy then
A spectacle for gods and men
Each in his white cravat
BROTHER IN SIN,' the General said,
The hope of Ny place has turned your head
II is not worth the cost.
Restrain your anger, be resigned,
Dismiss it from your manly mind,
For THE GREAT GAME is LOST.
Come, leave we now this fearful place!
See, Forney bears the light!
Forney, the sharer of our grace,
And of our woes tonight;
All we are men of woe and SIM
Yes Douglas muttercd, breaking in,
More sinful whom we fail to win
Our purpose high and great;
Curse on your Clergy, grave and thin,
Who vex and rule the State

ed, and man grew up drunkard. How fear
full were its ravages. Already in many places
the sanctuary of God was entirely forsaken, the
Bible totally neglected, and the ale-house filed
to overlooking. The hoary hairs and the strip
ling youth crowded the same bar-room, and IN
hailed the same poison. Darkness was covering
the land and gross darkness the people. Every
succeeding generation was plunging deeper
and deeper in the gulf of intemperance, and 1t
is easy to see what would have been the final
result. The same ravages were being commit
ted in other nations. The original natives of
our forests have already become nearly extinct.
And if the benign genius of temperance had
not begun to dry up the fiery flood, the whole
world weuld soon have been drawn in, and
swallowed up, by this dreadful Maelstrom.-
Christianity would soon be blotted from exis-
tence and man left to the devouring fame.-
Yes, let the God of heaven sanction its daily
use as a beverage, and let man obey the fatal
mandate and soon would flow these awful con-
sequences; the heavens would be clothed in
sack-cloth, its blessed mansions re-echo the
mourufu tones of desoation, while all hell
would be keeping an eternal, but awful jubilee.
Think not that these sentiments are the raw
ings OF heated imagination, they are the sober
dictates OF truth, fully corroborated by wOul
experience. 1t is impossible for the holy spirit
to dwell in an unsanctfed heart "Be not
drunk with wine wherein is excess; but he
! filled the spirit" Eph. 5, Is. We are here
plainly taught that it is impossible for the spirit
of God to dwell in a heart polluted by the spirit
of alcohol; otherwise there would be no pro-
piety whatever in the exhortation. off any
man. deile the temple of God, him shall God
destroy" l Cor. 8, 16, II. Consequently il
the whole human family become defled by the
pollutions of alcohol, the whele human family
would be destroyed. The purposes of God IL
the salvation of man. would in great measure
be frustrated, and the purposes of Satan in the
destruction of man. would for the most part b'
realized. And all this from sanctioning Thu
use of alcoholic liquors as beverage; be
cause no being possessing the character whcl
Jehovah possesses, and being fully aware o
rlly flow from the use of alcoholic liquors as
beverage, can for a moment sanction their use
But need say no more. Who can help bu

Correspondence Of the Smyrna Times.
Letter from Appoquinimink.

Ma. EDTroE,
SRI have been thinking for some time
past of the great changes for the better IN APP
p,,o,,ipilnink Hundred, New Castle county,
Del: and as this Hundred has her sons and
daughters located in various parts Of America
it you'd to them, no doubt, be very gratifying
to learn this fact.
First, though not least, her lands have chang
cd into the ha nds of eastern and southern men,
which has been cleared and resusciiated by
lime and guano, and is in many places produc-
ing as good crops as are raised IN any otler
part of the State. Fhis season has been tavora-
bic for peaches in the eastern part OF the hun
dred. bordering on the Bay. Mr.. Appleton and
Mr.. Finnemore, with Mr.. David }. Cummms,
made fine business of it, Mr.. +. is reported
to have cleared $4,000 on his orchard Mr.
Henry r.. Walker is reported to have raised on
a field ofthirty acres, one thou. and one hundred
bushels Of, Mediterranean wheat; he has also
begun to improve his stock of sheep and horned
cattle, and perhaps has the finest strawberry
match in the hundred, upon which he Is said Il
have cleared one hundred dollars the present
e.
season. The western part Of the hundred
which has been quite disreputable, has improved
wonderfully. .Messrs. Samuel and John Town
send have presented topublic view two fine farm
with quite convenient buildings, all of whicl
is worthy of imitation. 49,

Nor friends nor fashion tempted her to roam,
Her books, her birds the cheerful, blazing fire
Contented her with her kind, loving sire.

Of noble person and illustrious name,
And now. sweet Elise found anew delight,
And carolled her sweat songs from morn I'LL night

of which are quite respectable-nOt of that
character as was the "Cold Well" We would
now say for the encouragement of the clergy
and ministers generally, they would be kindly
received and entertained almost in every
family. ..,@ ~. =. t.-.--, =,
How has thisbeen effected :! We infer, the
great change is due to the Gospel. Most per-
sons now attend church of some denomination,
and drinking spirituous liquor to excess is rare,
only with few exceptions among the white
population. Her schools have been greatly
improved, by procuring the services of compe-
tent gentlemen and lady teachers, both sober
and diligent,-they will compare with any other
school teachers in the State. Notwithstanding
the advancement of our hundred in this regard,
there is greatly needed more school houses and
districts in her territory.
The colored, people have erected a comforta-
Bile brick meeting house in the lower part of
the hundred where many of them are very
responsible men.
Good Iaborcrs are greatly needed at fair prices
for farming purposes.
To the credit of old Appoqunimink, we will
say (and perhaps it will be tested) that large
majority of her voters will sign petition for a
Prohibitory Liquor Law, the coming winter
1t is to be hoped that the friends of this mea.
sure throughout the State will unite immedi-
ately, and be active and vigiant until little
Delaware shall have engraited upon her statute
books law prohibiting {" the accused traffic.
