How Fort MouItrie got its name.

Fort Moultrie at the Mouth of Charleston
harbor, is named In honor of General Will
liam Mo1ltrie, Que of the braveSt patriots o {
the American revolution, who gained a mem
orable victory at the fortress over a British
squadron. June 2Sth, 1776 Moultrie was
native of South Carolina. and of Scotch des-
cent He early espoused the cause of Ameri
can Independence, and in March, 17T6, was
ordered to construct fort on Sullivan Island
at the mouth of Charleston karbor. and was
engaged upon the work when the British feet
appeared of the coast He was advised to
abandon the fortress, as Gen Charles Lee,
his superior officer, declared it was no better
than "a slaughter pen But Moultrie had
faith in bis own work, and defended the fort
with great skill and valor, aud drove away
the enemy One British ship was lost. and
two others were so rlddled as to have almos
become recks. The loss of the enemy was
222 killed and wounded. The American had
eleven killed add twenty-six wounded. The
fortress was hardly injured by the fire of the
British squadron. and when the battle wa:

BIT GERALD MASSEY.

High hopes that burn'd like stars sublime,
Go down the heavens OF Freedom;
And true hearts perish in the time
We bitterliest need them2
But never sit we down and say
There's nothing left but sorrow;
We walk the wilderness to day,
The promised land tomorrow.
Our birds of song are silent now,
There are no flowers blooming!
Yet life beats in the frozen bough,
And freedoms spring is comingl
And Freedoms tide comes up alway,
Though we may stand in sorrow;
And our good bark, aground to-day
Shall float again to morrow.
Through all the long, dark nights of years,
The peoples cry ascendeth,
And earth is wet with blood and tears;
But cur meek sufferance endethi
The few shall not forever sway,
The many moil in sorrow;
The powers of earth are strong to-day,
But Heaven shall rule tomorrow.
Though hearts brood o'er the past, our eyes
With smiling features glisteni
For 10 our day bursts up the skies;
Lean out your souls and lstenl
The world rolls freedoms radiant way
And ripens with her sorrow;
Keep heartl who bears the cross to-day.
Shall wear the crown tomorrow.
o Youth! flame earnest, still aspire,
With energies immortal'
To many heaven of desire
Our yearning opes portal
And though age wearies by the way,
And hearts break in the furrow,
Well sow the golden grain to day,
Harvest comes to morrw.
Build up heroic lives, and all
Be like a sheathen saber.
Ready to fash out at Gods call,
o chivalry of labcrl
Triumph and toll are twins and aye,
Joy suns the cloud of SORROW;
And 'tis the martydorn to-day
Brings victory tomorrow.
