PoLANp.- Something of the old heroic
feeling has been revived in Poland, during
the last month, provoked by an act of extra
ordinary and atrocious rigor on the part of
their Russian masters. Without resorting
to hasty or violent revenge under the smart
of their injuries, the people Of Warsaw ap.
pealed to the Emperor in an address which
expressed the accumulated griefs of many
years. "More than half century, 1t says,
''oe suffering imposed upon the whole nation
upon a nation which for centuries was
governed by liberal Institutions; this nation
deprived even of legal voice to bring be-
fore the throne of the sovereign the COM
plants and expression of the general wants;
all this state of things has reduced this peo-
pie only to make its voice heard by the cry
of its victims. and thus it never ceases to
offer up a holocaust" The ancient and
loug suppressed longing to be elevated to
the rank of an Independent nationality,
breaks out in their petition, and the painful
sense Of the wrong which they have endured
recalls the Interesting history Of that beau
tiful country when the eyes of the world
were attracted to its brave struggle for in.
dependence.

MASSACHUSETTS PURCHASING STEAMERs.-
Gov. Andrews has notified the Secretary of
the Navy that Massachusetts has purchased
the splendid, substantial and swift steamers
Massachusetts, and South Carolina, recently
employed as packets between Boston and
Charleston; that they are thoroughly equip
ped, manned with experienced and brave
men, and are ready for sea and any Gov
ernment service. Gov. Andrews asks for
authority to commission commanders. The
Secretary of the Navy, nor the President,
has any such authority. They can only be
received in the service as auxiliary to the
navy, and must be commanded by regular
commissioned naval officer. If they are not
thus employed. they will be used by the
State TO ply within Massachusetts, waters. to
protect the commerce of that State against
jeff Davis pirates.

TO THE EAGLE.
BY JAMES @. PERdvAL.

Bird of the broad and sweeping wing,
Thy home Is high in heaven
Where wide the storms their banners fling,
And the tempest clouds are driven.
Thy throne is on the moantain top;
fhy fields the boundless air;
And hoary peaks, that proudly pror
The skies, thy dwellings are,
Thou sittcst like a thing Of light,
Amid the noontide blaze;
The midway sun is clear and bright;
II cannot dim thy gaze.
Thy piniOns, to the rushing blast.
O'er the bursting billow, spread,
Where the vessel plunges, hurry past,
Like an angel Of the dead.
Thou art perched aloft on the beetling crag,
And the waves are white below,
And on, with haste that cannot lag,
They rush In endless flow,
Again thou hast plumed thy wing for fight
70 lanes beyond the sea,
And away, like spirit wreathed in light,
Thou hurrest, wild and free.
Thou hurriest over the myriad waves,
And thou leayest them all behind;
Thou sweepest that place of unknown graves,
Fleet as the tempest wind.
When the night storm gathers dim and dark
With a shrill and bOding scream,
Thou rushest by the foundering bark,
Quick as passing dream,
lord Of the boundless realm Of air,
In thy imperial name,
The hearts of the bold and ardent daro
The dangerous path of fame.
Beneath the shade OF thy golden wings,
The Roman legons bore,
From the river Of Egypt's cloudy springs,
Their pride, to the polar shore.
For thee they fought, for thee they fell,
And their oath was on thee laid;
To thee the clarions raised their swell,
And the dying warrior prayed.
Thou vert, through an age of death and fears,
The image of pride and power,
Till the gathered rage OF thousand years
Burst forth in one awful hour.
And then deluge Of wrath II came,
And the nations shook with dread;
And II swept the earth till its fields we're fame,
And piled with the mingled dead.
Kings we're rOlld in the wasteful flood,
With the low and crOuching slave;
And together lay, in shroud OF blood,
TIE coward and the brave
And where was then thy fearless fight?
"O'er the dark, mysterious sea,
To the lands that caught the setting light,
The cradle of Liberty.
There, on the silent and lonely shore,
For ages, | watch'd alone
Aud the world, in its darkness, ask ID no more
Where the glorious bird had flown.
"But then came n bold and hardy few,
And they breasted the unknown wave;
caught afar the wandering crew;
And knew they were high and brave.
wheeled around the welcome bark,
AS II sought the desolate shore,
And up TO heaven like joyous lark,
My quivering pinions bore.
"And now that bold and hardy few
Are nation wide and strong;
And danger AMI doubt have led them through
And they worship me in song
And over their bright and glancing arms,
On field, and lake, and sea,
With an eye that fires, and a spell that charms,
guide them to victory"
