By J. r DRAKE,

When Freedom from her mountain height.
Uuful,d her standard tn the air
She tore the robe o. azure night.
And set the stars of glory there.
Size mingled with its gorgeous dyes
The milky ballric of the skies.
And stripped its pure. C lestial white
With stre.ikings of the morning light
Then fr''m its mansion in the sun,
She called heI eagle bearer down,
And gave into his mighty hand,
The symbol of her chosen land
Majestic monarch of the cloud,
Who reares. aloft thy regal form
To hear the fempest-tIumpings loud.
When strive the warriors of the storm.
And rolls the thunder-irum If heaven,-
Child of the sun. 10 thee 'tis given
To guard the banner of the free,
To hove in the sulphur smoke,
To ward away the battle stroke.
And bidits tlendings shine afar,
Like rainbows on the cloud Of war,
The harhingers of victoryi
Flag of our countryl thy folds shall fly,
The sign Of hope and triumph high
When speaks the signal trumpet zone,
And the long line comes cleaning on,
Ere Yet the life-bloOd. warm and wet
Has dimmed the glittering bayonet;
Each soldiers eye shall brightly turn
To where thy skyborn glories burn;
And as his springing steps advance
Catch war and vengeance from the glance,
And when the cannon mOuthing loud,
Heave in wild wreaths the battle-shroud,
And CORY sabres rise and fall
Like shoots of flame on midnight,s pail,
Then shall thv meteor glances glow,
And covering foes shall sink beneath
Each gallant arm that strikes below
That lovely messenger of death.
Flag of the Seas on ocean wave.
Thy stars shall glitter DER the brave:
When death. careering on the gale.
Sweeps darkly round the bellied sail,
And frightened waves rush wildly back
Before the broadSide's reeling rack,
Each dying wanderer OF the sea
Shall look at once to heaven and thee,
And smile to see thy sPlendors fly
In triumph or his closing eye.
Flag of the free hearts hope and homei
By angel hands TO valnr given,
Thy stars have lit the welkin dome
And ali thy hues were born IN heaven
Forever float that standard sheet
Where brcathes the f,e bat falls before US
With Freedoms spil beneath our feet.
And Freeiom's banner streaming DER US I!

Burning of Harper's Ferry Arsenal.

On Thursday night of last week. the arse
nal at Hsrp".'s Ferry was fred by 1t. Jones
of the U. S. Army. 1t may be necessary to
to state that be was in command of the arse
ual at the time. The following particulars
are published by Lieut.. Jones now at Car
lisle Barracks
1t Jones says says he learned yesterday
that 600 Virginians were approaching by the
Winchester road to seize the arsenal. He
Immediately placed piles of powder and straw
in all the buildings, and waited patiently the
approach of the enemy. The picket guard
having given the alarm. the garrison set fire
10 the out houses aud the carpenter shop 4;
the fuses beginning to burn. he commenced
his retreat. The citizens of Harper's Ferry
were evidently in league with the party ad
vancng to seize the arsenal. and were instant
lp in arms and followed the soldiers. Two of
the regulars were killed by their FIRE. and 2
others deserted before they reached Hagers
town. They marched all night, and missing
the train at HagerstOwn, took omnibusses to
Cham bersburg to-day. much exhausted by
their nights march They were entertained
by the people of Chambersburg, and received
with long cheers along the route.
He says that as the Federal troops rushed
across the Potomac bridge. the Harper's Fer
ry people dashed into the Arsenal. He be-
lieves that large number must have perish
ed, as repeated explosions were hea I'd. He
saw the light of the burning buildings for
many miles.
