severe attack of rheumatism, by which have
been confined to my room since Christmas day'

rejoicing on this memorable anniversary; for
who would not rejoice in the recollections of q
day which was a terror to John Bull and all
the Bulls. If jackson was living, he would
be a terror to the she Bull.

the Emerald Isle! How many names and

rallied under for the last forty years. W at
name will they adopt next? I'll give them
one: Down, Derry, down! Whom do We
thank for our last grand triumph? The bone
and sinew Of this free and happy land the
farmer, laborer, and mechanic. In peace
they are useful-in war a terror. They have
to work for all, pay for all, and fight for ali

me- from his own lips, " Maher, fear not; tho
Union is safe in the hands Of the people, who
cannot be corrupted by the money power; they
love their liberties and rights, and will dc fend
them " He never told me lie. and thank
God it is so. I hopeit will be 80 forever God
