war and desolaon, the night after the release oil
ourself and comp airots from four months imprson-
mtpt and that il came into town and passed door
in the possession of the victors virtually trailing IN
the dust, just as our friend, Mr.. Waes, drove his
team in front of our office building which was our
new printing press and materizi. The incident was
purely providental, and remarked as the horse
men were bearing the flag past the office.
Col Titus AID Capt. Donaldson led the forces against
the printing offices in Lawrence in May, and the latter
boosted to u.s. the evening after the destruction OF our
office, that he had the honor of commanding the de-
schnent which broke up our own presses and 'Te rev,
there would be resurrection" of those type;
but hsy did come FORTH, and redPPeared as
cannon balls IN judgment against htm, al the
r. sidence of Col Titus, the 18th Of Au-
gust only three months after their burial; and it is
raid they mace impression, IN that FORM upoa that
rufian horde which impression with ink and paper
many whether those wretches had brains, but it is
feet That of the type-meta bullets found brains

Donaldson, and in fact their whole command, were
taken prisoners, and confined IN the same room
where they destroyed the press short time previous
Such is the fortune of war.

TIE BoRDERRUFFhN FLAG.
by MARTIN
Trail ip the dust the bloody flag
On the ground let it lie!
Never again that Haunting rag,
Above our homes shall fly
Disbonored let the Lone Star truil.
Tramplod beneath our feet,
Nor shall its foul supporters iai
Their just reward to meet.
Hwayed abroad m scornful pride
When iair the Spring sung clear
II 8 fitting that its triumph died
Ere Summers leaf was
And thus shall fall the coward knayes,
Each traitor, robber, foe,
Who wou polute our soil with layes, ~
And crush our Freedom low. fs6
Cheelily let the glad shouts peal
welcome to our Press;
IIuzza wei make the RuBiaHs feel
The strength within its breast
Huzza! Iluzza! For TYPE and Pes
Best soldiers in this tight
God bless the Press God bless the MRN
