BY HENRY s. wAsHBURN.
He stood beneath an April sky,
youth of proud aud generous mien,
The blast of war went wailing by,
And grief in many an eye was seen;
And pausing but moment more,
lie ran to take one fond embrace,
Then sprung at duty's trumpet call,
To meet the traitor face TO face.
And as he few ON eagle wing,
His country's honor to defend.
heard from lips all quigering,
A mothers prayers TO Heaven ascend:
'God shield beneath His loving eye,
The darling of my heart tonight;
On Thy strong arm let him rely,
The brave defender of the RIGHT.
Then from her couch believed with tears,
Columbia, daughter of the skies,
Heard shouts DER mastering human fears,
From million hearts, arise! ARIsE!n
The traitor shall not pluck a star,
From that fair coronet of thine,
The form his ruthless hand would mar,
Shall still in regal beauty shine''
The watchword leaped from out the waves,
That break upon our rock-bound shores,
1t rang from Berkshire's granite caves,
Where the proud bird of Freedom scars =
From lake and stream, from hill and dell,
One answering echo made reply,
1.-The Bay State knows her duty well,
Her sons will triumph-or to,H die ~
And sure am, since such as thine,
Land OF my Pilgrim sires, and pride,
Their life blood offer ON thy shrine,
And sternly bSttle side by side;
Our dear old flag Shall higher STILL
Float proudly over land and sea,
For3those strong Saxon words, WE WILL,
Are the firm buwarks of the Free!

CHARLES ROBINSON, GOVERNOR OF KAN.
sAs, and some of the state officers, are likely
to get such an exposure of their doings as will
enable the public to form a just estimate OF
their claim to public confidence They are
now accused of swindling the state out Of s4S,
600 by fraudulent dealing in the sale OF state
bonds. There has been careful investigation
by legislative committee, which finds the
charges fully proved, and reports the following
resolve -
Resolved, That Charles Robinson, govern
or, John w. Robinson, secretary of state, and
George S. Hillyer, auditor, OF the state of
Kansas, be and they are hereby iinpeached of
high misdemeanors in office"
The Lawrence Republican of Feb 10 tells
the method of their swindling =
SIT is known to many that committee of
investigation was appointed by the Kansas
house OF representatives to investigate cues.
tions pertaining 10 the sale of state bonds. 1t
appears by the testimony thus far ELECTED that
the state officers sold to r. S. Stevens the sum
of S87 1000 in per cent. bonds, payable in
fifteen years, for the sum of sixty cents on the
dollar, and that S3l 900 of what were kno Rn
as war bonds, drawing 10 per cent. interest
o"hu"ityS "hN page III A"O ears, were sou
to the same person at forty cents on the
dollar. The first of these classes of bonds
were sold jointly, by Stevens and the
state officers, to the interior department
at Washington for So cents on the dol
lar, and the latter for 95 cents on the dol
lar. The auditor and treasurer were present
at Washington, negotiating for the sale of
these very bonds, while the transaction was
perpetrated in the name of Robert S. Stevens.
The interior department was induced to en-
ter into the transaction for the purpose OF aid
ing the new stale government, and without
any knowledge that other parties were inter
ested. Stevens acted in the double capacity
OF an agent OF the state and a speculator in
bonds. The aggregate loss to the state,
which went into the pockets of Stevens and
his accomplices, is about FoRTY-EIGHT THOU
SAND DOLLARS"
IL has for sometime been apparent to out
side observers that Robinson and some of his
associates richly deserve the denunciations
bestowed upon them by Gen. Lane and others.
The Leavenworth Conservative says
kansas, so recently pauper. is robbed by
its highest officers. Kansas, depleted by an
unprecedented drought, has a pick pocket for
governor. Kansas, so true to freedom, has
state officers who are true only to robbery.
Unless tile legislature impeaches and removes
these scoundrels ii will be the religious duty
of the people 10 hang them. And it will be
done.

TUESDAY. FEBRUARY 20. 1862.

GENERAL BUELL. AT NAsHvILLE.-Our dis
patches, to-day, report that our troops under
Gen. Buell. have taken possession of Nash
willie The particulars OF the capture are not
siven. but there seems to have been no fight
inc. The rebels fled. We think this report
is true, because it comes to us by way of both
Richmond and St. Louis and because it has
seemed to US quite unlikely that the rebels
would make stand there. Johnston can not
raise force sufficient to withstand the army
OF Gen. Buell., even if it were not supported by
that under Gen. Grant The defeat and disper-
sion of Zollicoffer's army weakened him very
much. The capture OF fort Donelson was
still heavier blow by which he lost position,
men, and arms. His own retreat from Bowling
Green was not without much confusion and
disaster. lie has not force enough Tor an Ell
fectual stand at Nashville, even if the city
were well fortified, and tile Teunessceans will
ling to have it destroyed by bombardment.
One rebel estimate gives him 10000 men. 1t
is doubtful whether he has half as many, while
more than $780, 600 Union troops can be imme-
diately concentrated at Nashville, if neces-
sary.
We think, therefore, that the report is true,
and expect it will be be fully confirmed.
There is probability also in the report that
Gov. Harris will call home the Tennessee
troops serving in the rebel army, and that
there is a great reaction in Tennessee in favor
of the Uniou That state was forced into the
secession movement, with which very large
proportion of the people did not sympathize.
Gov. Harris would not find it difficult to bring
the state back to loyalty. The rebellion is
conquered in Tennessee; but there will prob
ably be fight at Columbus, the only place
the rebels now occupy in Kentucky. vic
tory there will capture New Orleans.
LIEUT.. Col. MAGGI's REPoRr.-In anoih.

body else to be commissioned as its colonel, il

tell or guess whether he finds Maggi's repor

for the regiment that he did not go with it Il

OxFoRD.-In Oxford, Saturday morning,
lad named Albert Landerkin, whose parents
reside in Cambridgepolt, narrowly escaped
instant death. The boy was on a visit TO his
friends in Oxford, and while in the vicinity of
the depot, caught hold of the handle of the
door of freight car which was moving slow
IT, His feet slipped, and he was thrown di
rectly upon the tack, falling under the car.
The brakes came upon him and pressed him
down across the rail, so that when the car was
stopped he was SO closely wedged in before
the wheel that some little time elapsed in re-
moving the brake beiure he could be released.
Had not the turning Of the wheel been stopped
by the application of the brake, it must have
rolled on him and killed him instantly. He
was severely bruised, but hopes are entertained
that he will recover.
