song.
Chorus after each verse.
Give thanks, all ye people, give thanks to the
y, Lord,
-Alleluias of freedom, with joyful accord.
For the sunshine aud rainfall, enriching again
Our acres in myrads, with treasures Of grain;
For the Earth still unloading her manifold
wealth,
For the Skies bcaming vigor, the Winds breath
ing health:
Give thanks
For the Nations wide table, overAowingly
spread,
Where the many have feasted, and all have been
With no bondage, their God given rights to en-
thrall,
But Liberty guarded by Justice for all:
~ Give thanks
In the realms Of the Anvil the Loom, and the
Plow,
Whose lbe mines and the fields, to Him CRATE
His. the flocks and the herds, sing ye hill-sides
On His Ocean domains chant His name with the
gales,
IS Give thanks
OF commerce and traffic, ye princes, behold
Your riches from Hin Whose the silver and gold,
Happier children of Labor, true lords of the soil
Bless the Great Master Workman who blesseih
your toll.
Give thanks
Brave men of our forces, Life-guard of our
coasts,
To your Leader be loyal, Jehovah of Hosts:
Glow the Stripes and the Stars aye with victory
bright,
Rejecting His glory,-Hc crowneth the Right.
Give thanks
Nor shall ye through our borders, ye stricken Of
heart,
Only wailing your dead, in the Joy have no part:
Gods solace be yours, and for you there shall
flow
All that honor and sympathy gifts can bestow
Give thanks
In the Domes of Messiah-ye worshipping
throngs,
Solemn litanies mingle with jublant songs;
The Ruler of Nations beseeching to spare
And our Empire still keep the Elect of His care.
Give thanks
Our guilt and transgressions remember no more;
Peace, Lord righteous Peace, of Thy gift we
implore;
And the Banner of Union, restored by Thy
Hand,
Be the Banner of freedom DER All in the Land.
And the Banner of Union, DC.
thanks

THE SIEGE OF CHARLEsToS.-Thc
Charleston papers furnish the following
relative to the progressing siege OF
that city:
The firing Of the enemy from GadbeIry.
Hill Thursday was more rapid than that OF
the previous day The fire was directed on
Forts Sumter, Johnson, and Battery 9imkins,
but principally on Fort Sumter. From the
rapidity with which the enemy fires and very
heavy reports made, it is believed that the
battery on Gadberry Hin has received and
mounted several new 2O0pounder farrott
guns, all tae shells SO far thrown being from
guns of that size. The enemy's fire was again
wild, many Of the shells fiili1e in the river
A few glanced and Struck the parapet on the
northwest angle of Fort Sumter, doing very
little damage We heard Of no casualties at
the fort. The fire on Fort johnson was
quite heavy for time Thursday morning,
but gradually slackened in the aiteraoon.--
The enemy aso sent an occasional shell to-
wards battery Simkins, doing no damage.
Fort Moultrie and Battery Simkins main
tain regular fire on Gregg and Wagner
The Yankee laboring force at Battery Wag
ner seem to have been largely Increased
within the last day or two. They seem to
be energetically at work, not paying so
much attention to the shells from oar bate
ries as formerly.
The firing OF the enemy from Gadberry
Hill was less rapid and sustained on Friday
than on the day preceding. His shots were
as usual principally directed against sumter,
but johnson and Simkins also received a
considerable share Of attention. Up TO yes
terday the damage inflicted on Fort Sumter
has been officially reported rs Very slight -
A negro lost his arm at Johnson on Thurs
day.
