nh State prayer-founded never hung
Such choice upon 4 peoples tongue,
Such power to bless or ban,
A that which makes thy whisper Fate.
For which on thee the centuries wait,
And destinies Of man.
Across thy Alleghanisn chain,
With groanings from land of pam,
The west wind finds its way;
Wild. wsiling from Mssouri's flood,
The crying of thy ehildren's blood
Is in thy ears to-day.
And unto thee, in Freedoms hour
OF sorest need, God gives the power
To ruin or to save
To wound OF heal to blight or bless
With fruitful field or wilderness,
A free home or grave
Nav. more: transcending time and place,
The question Of the human race
Ia thine to solve anew;
And, trembling doubtful on tiny breath,
A thrill of life or pang Of death
Shall reach the wide earth through.
Then let thy Virtue match the Crime,
Rise to the level Of the time;
And if q son Of thine
Betray or tempt thee, Brutus-like,
For Fsiherland and Freedom strike,
As justice gives the sign.
Wake, sleeper, from thy dream of ease,
The great Occasions fOrelock seize,
And let the NOrth-wind strong
And golden leaves of Autumn be
Thy coronal Of victory
And thy tIiumphal song

We6 Orleans 9ailg Gres&ent,


ODD Fellows Hall was crowded last night as it can
he crowded only by the Fillmore men Of New Orleans
Pc antirpations that had been indurcd in REGARDING
the first and only address Of Rande Hunt dripr the
present canyass, were not in the least disapnojDtcd
Though not entirely recovered from his recent ndis
pOgtiOn he made an address which in aroumcnt
eloquence, and effect upon the multitude far SURPASSED
any Of the many speeches we have heard this season
Appearing on the stage he was greeted with an
applause that knew bounds, and scarcely knew
when to stop. Stating that the present distraction
Of the country was altogether owing to the agitation
Of the slavery question: he gave history Of the diff
fercnt slavery agitatiOns that have occurred since the
adoption Of the constitution with the COMPROMISES
that have been made between the North and Sonth.
and argued, in al rrctable manner that the present
sectional cNctcncntS are owing TO the rcncol of the
Missouri Compromise and that repeal is attributable to
the Democratic party alone. H4 several references
to, and his c'loGy Of, the great pacifcator Henry
Clay were given with an enthusiasm and ,,athos that
aroused the widest accamations Of his he,rcr, The
bloody scenes in Kansas were portravcd and the re.
sponsiby Of them affixed to the rcvcal Of the com.
promise by the Democrats
The latencs< Of the lolr and thu. crowded state of
our columns, preclude the possibility Of our giving as
detailed report OF the speech as our notes would en-
able Us to give. The speaker refp,ted by document
Mr. Benjamin recent assertion in some of his conn
try speeches, that the New Mexico and Utah and the
Kansas bills were identical in principle He showed
that, under the Kansas bil newly arrived foreigner
is a sovereign, whilst under the New Mexico and
Utah bills the case il widely different The right Of
voters were then argued and the doctrine of snatter
sovereignty shown mp and denounced The disunion
f'rocI1ites OF the Northern and Southern wings OF
the Democratic party-the silent inlccility Of Bnc-
allan--his sympathy with the doctrines Of the Os
tend Conference, and the consequences Of di4vnion
We're dWclt upon with great force and the audience
interrupted the speaker with the most bOiltcrou.
RESPONSES to his sentiments. The several candidates
Fremont, Buchanan and Fillmore were alluded to in
fitting terms and Fimore5 lrnncss and integrity in
$50, as we'll at tile present time, shown IN in
golden ligt.
Mr. llant concluded by giving it as his opinion that
il the voice oi the city be fairly heard in the coming
election, the State will 60 for Fillmore: and bv warn
ing his hearers 10 shun those men Who upon rctur.
ing here from the North, say that Fillmore has no
chance. He spoke for about two hours and we can
not remember when ever before saw as large an
audience listen to their speaker with 50 much attcn
tion, or cheer him with such genuine enthusiasm.

CONVICTION FOR ILLEGAL EoTISG.-The Augusta
(Ga.) Chronicle publishes the following extraor-
dinary statement. 1t may he true. If SO, they do
things differently in Georgia from what they do here:
James Nelch an Irishman, who had never been
natuiazed WAS tried during the past week in this
county upon the charge Of illegal voting at the elec
ton in January last, for county officers and found
guilty. He is, therefore, now awaiting the SEN
tence Of the Court-which. under the law is conie-
ment in the Penitcntiary from two to four years.
His WAS very clear case. He was willing to take
hand in ruling the country, but wholly unwilling to
render it any service Soon after voting he
served by the sheriff to appear juror at the next
term of the Superior Court. He appeared, and to
avoid doing jury duty, swore that he not citizen
Of the United States and Of course discharged
inror. The Court however placed the matter be-
fore the Grand jury, and the result is told above.
He is evidently paying pretty dearly for his exercise
OF suffrage, but it will be lesson to him for the
future, and, we trust, warning to all to steer clear
of a similar fate.
