A NORTHERN RALLY.
BY JOHN CLANCY.


We've borne too long this Southern wrong,
That ever sought to shame us;
The threat and boast, the braggart toast,
"That Southern men would tame u.s."
We've bent the knee to chivalry,
Have borne the lie and scornng;
But now, thank God, our Northern blood
Has reused itself from fawning.
The issues made, our flag displayed,
Let he who dare retard it.;
No towards here grow pale with fear,
For Northern swords now guard it.
The men that won at Lexington
A name and fame in story,
Where patriot sires, to light their fires
TO lead their sons to glory.
Like rushing tide down mountain side,
The Northern hosts are sweeping;
Each freemans breast to meet the test,
With patriot blood is leaping.
Now Southern sncer and bullies lcer,
Will find swift yengence meted;
For never yet since foe men met
Have Northern men retreated.
United now, no more well bow,
Or suplicatc, or reason:
Twill be our shame and lasting blame,
II we consent to treason.
Then in the fight "ur hearts unite,
One purpose move us ever;
No traitor hand divide our land,
No power our country sever.

while rebels with Ia their hands
menace the Government. He who
proposes it il IN ally Of the countrys
enemies, and is not le@ useful to them
than he would be il he enlisted in their
army or joined them in their camps.
In truth, the present troubles will not;
in the end, be settled by compromise.
The traitors have not sufieredany grisv.
ances, the Government has inflicted
upon them no wrongs nor expressions.
They have not any such causes for the
instruction. They allege nothing
but their hatred of the North and Of
free republican institutions. They
have begun q war to crafty their ma
lignity, and that war will be prosecuted
by the parties attacked until its origin.
ators shall have been punished, and the
Government firmly established. No
peace will erer be made upon the basis
Of compromise. When the people Of
the rebellious States desire to cease
fighting, the Government will receive
their submission upon the simple con-
dition of their obedience in the future
to the Constitution and Laws. There
is nothing to compromise about, andwe
believe such men as John j. Critten-
den, though possibly meaning WE'LL.
to be among the most mischievous OF
all the citizens who have not joined
the revolt. When Yancey, Keitt and
their confederates raised the standard
of secession because Republican Pres.
ident was elected, their ofense should
have been at once pronounced treason,
and measures should have been taken
for their subjugation. If the Govern
ment was too weak for the ordeal, it
should have been made stronger. II
the experiment had proved that the
Government had no capacity to protect
itself, it is not worth preserving, and
the time for changing it had arrived.
Instead OF that decisive and statesman.
like course, Mr.. Crittenden stepped be-
tween the rebels and the constituted
power of the country, with words and
schemes Of concession and compromise:
This was an admission, to begin WITH,
that they had right and justice on their
side. The Government would have
been degraded had it made the PROPOSE
ton, and the rebels would have scoffed
at it had they received it.
Those who talk of compromise must
remember that the war was not COM.
menced upon the traitors. but by them.
Not even secession made the war, for
after the pretended withdrawal of seven
States, the Government essayed to avoid
the conflict by delay and uon-action,
asking only permission to supply it's
starving soldiers with TODD. This hum
bic request was denied, and the bloody
game was opened by the bombardment
Of Fort Sumter. An appeal to tho
sword was ostentatiously made by the
traitors; and nothing but the sword
can now decide between them and true
men.-S. f. Times. .7 35k

Butler was sullen or biting.
Gray seldom talked or smiled.
Hogarth and Swift were very absent
minded in company.
Milton was unsociable, and even irri-
table when pressed into conversation.
Kirwin, though copious and eloquent
in public address, was meagre and dull
in colloquial discourse.

he had Just seen, but then he was the
model of poetry. p.
Chaucer's silence was more agreeable
than his conversation.
Dryden's conversation was slow and
dull. his humor saturnine and reserved.
Dcscartcs was silent in mixed COM

Ben johnson used to sit silently in
company and suck his wine and their
humors.
Southcy was stiff, sedate, and wrapped
up in asceticism.
Addison was good company with his
intimate friends, but in mixed company
he preserved his dignity by stiff and
reserved silence.
Junius was so modest that he could
scarcely speak upon the most common
subjects without suffusion of bushes.
Fox, in conversation, never Tagged |;
his animation and variety We're mex
haustable.
DR.. Bentley was loquacious.
Goldsmith wrote like an angel, and

Burke was eminently entertaining,
enthusiastic, and interesting in conver-
sation.

scared in every region and was at home
n them all.
DR.. Birch dreaded pen as he did a
torpedo; but he could talk like running
water.
DIR. johnson wrote monotonously
and ponderously, but in conversation
his words were close and sinewy; and
if his pistol missed fire he knocked his
antagonist down with the butt end oft.
Coleridge, in conversation, was full
effectiveness and originality.
Leigh Hunt has boen we'll termed
the philosopher of Hope, and likened
to pleasant stream in conversation.
Carlyle doubts, objects and constant
ly dcmurs.
