Hark bark on the blast the proud eagle is
screaming.
His echo il heard from the mountains afar !;
Our banner high over our ramparts is stream
ing.
And bids us to rally around it for war
Arise, sons of freedom, Americas glory
Depends on your might in this perilous
hour;
Let not she vile foe tell the heart-rendcring
stor'.
They conqL"rcd and won by their traitor
Gus power
Down, down with the traitors whose souls OF
dclusnn
Have them to scenes % oppression and
wrong :;
Who have unged our proud nation in death
and contusi0u,
Our nation, where honor and glory belong.
Shame, shame on the cravcns, whose souls of
pollution
Would seek to destroy their country and
flag;
Dishonor the laws of our blcst Constitution,
And hang out, cxnlting, Palmetto rag!
Oh. God of Domi nion. OF Justice and Power,
Be first in the battle our foes to dSarm;
Shield shield our brave heroes i'll peril's dark
hour
Oh, crown tl,om with honor and save them
from harm
For nothing remains bu. to crush down rebel
lion,
And show them in aernest the strength of
our might;
LIST them see We have union of hearts Ivy the
million,
Who nobiy will conquer or die in the fight !!
Move on, then. brave legions! there's mar
tial rcuown
Now looming above you in unwilling SPLEEN
dor;
Aye, pull. in your power. the Palmetto down!
And this be- your wach-word, . We never
surrender 20

THATCHER COMET The brilliant comet
which male its appearance on the evening Of
Sunday. June 30th. and which has doubtless
attracted attention all over the world. proves
to be the same comet which was discovered
by Mr.. Thatcher. a New York astronomer
On the 4h Ct April last, while il was on its
way toward the. sun. 1t passed its psrih.llon
4on the llth Of June and is now OH It's return
into space. The plane of its orbit is inclined
81 deg. to that of the earth. so that it has
shown itself 10 the Inhabitants of both hcms.
pheres AS it was visible III the southern
hemisphere when it was nearest the sun. it
probably presented a far more msgniticpn,
appea:ance to the people of that half of the
globe than it did to us. The accounts of il
from South America and the Cape Of Good
Hope will. consequently, be looked for with
a good deal Of interest.

Foreign News,

The only items Of Foreign news by the
late arrival are in relation to remarks in
Parliament concerning American affairs.
Various inquiries and suggestions were
made by members. to which responses
were made by the Representative of the
Government, Lord John Russell, who said
in substance that the Government had re-
ceived full accounts of the progress Of
events in the United States, and had sen,
out naval force to protect British inter-
ests. There ware some doubtful points
connected with the issue of letters oil
Marque by the Confederate Government,
and the blockade Of the Ports Of the South
by the Government of the. United State,
which were under consideration, but tha
nothing but the imperative duty of pro
tecting British interests in case they were
attacked, wonld prompt the slightest in
reference ia the troubles of the United
States, and he trusted in God that tn,
British Government would have nothing
to do With it.

IL Hon. Daniel s. Dickinson made
speech ct the Fifth Avenue Hotel, on Monday
evening, tho chief points Of which are en-
bodied 10 the following sketch, although it
does not reproduce the force and eloquence
OF MIR. Dickinson's language. He said that
his hearers would bear him witness that he
had long enieavored to stay tho storm that
has now arisen, and to bring about some
peaceful se.tlement.of affairs. Butnow the
South, FIRST by seocding, and second BY firing
on the old flag, has closed the door Of re-
Cancellation. lie Was meeting them on their
own ground. lie would have no halfway
measures, no compromises. Let us settle
this thing speedily and surely. 1t may ruin
this generation, but wo owe it to the next
that they should have no such troubles IS We
have had lie wnnld strika nov in nnr
might, and il necessary wipe tho South from
tho face Of the earth. lie knew they would
have civil war, and what was far worse,
scribe war; and he would make the prophe-
cy that by the time this matter was settled
the peculiar institution Of the South would
DO swept away. Let Us finch things while

1.-THE Yankees have little self reliance or
personal courage, are subnissive and easily

lar soldier; but they have few men quail

On the same principle Floyd should be

has produr ed''-though probably Davis, the
chief regulator OF Mississippi, will do a.
we'll. The chief quality for general among
