We come, with hearts Of gladness,
To breathe our songs Of praise.
Let not n note Of sadness,
Be blended in the lays
For lis hallowed story,
The theme Of freedoms birth,
Our fathers deeds Of glory
Are echoed round the earth.
The sound is waxing stronger,
And thrones and nations hear,
Kings may oppress no longer,
For freedoms reign is near.
Her reign win crush oppression,
And raise the humble mind,
And give the earth's possession
Among the good and kind.
And thou shalt sink the mountain,
Where pride and power we're crowned
And peace, like gentle fountains,
Shall shed its pureness round
And then the world will hear ms,
AID join our glorious lay,
And songs Of millions cheer Ms.
On this our nations day.
Soon freedoms lond hosannas,
Shall burst from every voice,
Till mountains and sayannas,
Roll hack the sound--reioice

THE AMERICAN FLAG.



When Freedom. from her mountain height,
Unfarled her standard to the air,
She tore the azure robe Of night,
And set the stars Of glory tberei
She mingled with its gorgeous dyes
The milky baldrie Of the skies,
And striped It's pure, celestial white
With streakings Of the morning light.
Then, from his mansion in the sun,
She called her eagle-bearer down,
And gave into his mighty hand
The symbol Of her chosen land
Majestic monarch Of the cloud
Who rear st alofi thy regal form,
To hear the tempest-trumping loud,
And see the lightning lances driven,
When strive the warriors Of the storm,
And rolls the thunder-drum Of heaven
Child Of the Sun! to thee 'tis given
TO guard the banner Of the free,
TO hover in the sulphur smoke,
To ward away the battle-stroke,
And bid its blendings shine afar,
Like rainbows on the cloud Of war,
The harbingers of victory!
Flag ofthe brayel thy folds shall Ay,
The sign Of hope and triumph high
When speaks the signal-trumpet tone,
And the long line comes cleaning on,
Ere yet the blood, warm and wet,
Has dimmed the glistening bayonet,
Each soldiers eye shall brightly turn
To where thy sky.born glories burn,
And, as his springing steps advance,
Catch war and vengeance from the glance.
And when the cannon-mounthings loud
Heaye in wild wreaths the battle shroud.
And CORY sabres rise and fall
Like shoots of fame on midnight's pail,
Then shall thy meteor glances glow,
And covering foes shall shrink beneath
Each gallant arm that strikes below
That lovely messenger Of death.
Flag Of the seas! on ocean wave
Thy stars shall glitter DER the brave;
hhen death, careerlng on the gale,
Sweeps darkly round the bellied sail
And frighted waves rush wildly back
Before the broadside's reeling rack,
Each dying wanderer of the sea
Shall look at once to heaven and thee,
And smile to see thy splendors fly
In triumph DER his closing eye.
Flag of the free hearts hope aud home,
BY angel hands to valor given,
Thy stars have lit the welkin dome,
And all thy hues were born in heaven.
Forever float that standard sheet
Where breathes the foe but falls before US,
With Freedoms soil beneath our feet,
And Freedoms banner streaming o er US!

At the appointed time Gen. jackson,
accompanied by the officers Of his staff,
passed through the gate Of the Grand
Square fronting the river, amidst the roar
Of artillery, and was conducted between
lines of Planche's New Orleans battalion
Of Creoles, to the raised floor Of the arch.
As he stepped upon il two little girls
leaned gently forward and placed the lau-
rel crown upon his head At the same
moment charming Creole girl, as the
representative of Louisiana, stepped for
ward, and with modesty supreme in voice
and manner, addressed few congratula-
tory words to the chief, eloquent with ex-
pressions of the most profound gratitude.
To these words Jackson made brief re
ply, and then passed on towards the church,
his pathway strewed with flowers by the
sweet representatives of the States. At
the Cathedral entrance the honored hero
was met by tie Able du Bourg in his
pontifcal robes, and supported by a col
legc of priests in their saccrdotal robes.
The Able addressed the General with an
eloquent and patriotic discourse, after
which the Chief was conducted to con-
spicuous seat near the great altar, in the
Cathedral when the Ts Denm Laadamas
was chanted by the choir and the people.
When the imposing pagent was over,
the General retired to his quarters to re-
sumo the stern duties Of a soldier; and
that night the city Of New Orleans blazed
with general Illumination" The story
Of the Generals arrest, &c. may be told
in few words. s'In the Legislature Of
Louisiana was powerful faction, person
ally opposed to Jackson--so powerful that,
when the officers and troops were thanked
by that body, the name Of their chief lea
der was omitted. This conduct highly
incensed the people. Their Indignation
was intensified by a seditious publication,
put forth by one Of the members Of the
Legislature, which was intended to produce
disatfection in the army. jackson ordered
the arrest of the author, and his trial by
martial law, Judge Dominique Hail, Of
the Supreme Court Of the United States,
issued writ Of kabeas corpus in favor Of
the offender. jackson considered this a
violation of martial law, and ordered the
arrest of the Judge and his expulsion be-
yond the limits Of the city. The Judge in
turn, when the military law was revoked
in consequence Of the proclamation Of
peace, required jackson to appear before
him and show cause why he should not be
punished forcontempt Of court He cheer
fully obeyed the summons, and entered the
crowded court room in citizen dress. BE
had almost reached the bar before he was
recognized, when he was greeted with
huzzas by thousand voices. The Judge
was alarmed and hesitated. jackson
stepped upon bench, procured silence,
and then turning to the trembling Judge,

Trouble In the Mines.
WMKESBARRE, PA, Oct. j

WLKESBARRE, Pa, Oct. ).
4 disturbance occurred among the min
ers at Moosic, about fifteen miles from this
city, to-day, which threatened to be follow
ed by serious outbreak, and perhaps loss
Of life before it is over. The mine is leased
and worked by the Hillside coal company,
and the trouble has been created from a
demand by some of the men that the boss
of the colliery, who is Welshman, should
be discharged.
The company refused to be coerced in
the matter, and some eighty OF the work
men came out of the mine, leaving their
implements behind them. The company
then issued an order that the tools be taken
from the works and the dissatified miners
would be paid off and discharged. After
some delay the strikers complied with the
order and received the money due them up
to date. They then made demonstrations
to prevent other parties from going to work
at the mine, and severely beat, perhaps
fatally, one man who attempted to do so.
More serious manifestations are antici-
pated in the morning when the men willing
to go to work attempt to enter the mine.
Sheriff Whitaker has been absent from the
city, and the duty of maintaining the peace
will devolve upon his deputies. \ posse
will so up in the morning and worm work
is looked for. A very bitter feeling has
been engendered among the men who are
disposed to work and the strikers which is
intensified by question of nationality, the
opposing factions being Welchmen and
Irishmen. \ war of races seems to be i'm
minent in this quarter just now.

CONIMEDABLE- The following extract,
taken from the charge OF Judge Ingham,
to the grand Jury of Sullivan, as published
in the papers Of that county, will commend
itself to all law abiding citizens.
If in any part of the county there be tol-
Grated open and ilagrant vices, corrupting
the public morals, exposing the young to
temptation and bringing the maiesties of
our laws into contempt, they are cases for
your action. ''Of This character are all
tippliug houses and places of habitual re-
sort for the idle and incorporate, where is
permitted an open profanity and looseness
of conversation offensive TO decency and
morality-places Of accustomed resort for
gambling, and houses of debauchery and
licentiOusness." These places are notori-
ously the nurseries Of vices and crimes
which furnish a large percentage of the
business of our criminal courts. The laws
tending to suppress them should be rigOr
Ouslv enforced, and to some of their pro-
visions ! will especially direct your atten-
ton.
It is a crime to set up any game or de-
yiBc OF address or hazard with cards, dice,
billiard tables, shuttle boards, or other in
strument at which money or other valuable
things may be played for or staked, or bet
ted upon and one who furnishes cards or
instruments for gambling, may be convict
ed for such Offiense. TO permit the play
ing of any game for money or other valua-
bIe thing in any room or place of resort
within the control of any person, renders
the person who permits the same liable to
an Indictment for keeping a gambling
house Tfany person shall keep disor-
derlv house 80 the encouragement of idle
ness, gaming, drinking, or other misbe-
hayior, TO the common nuisance or disturb

If any person shall keep and maintain

the Democratic Commissioners, no matter
how low they put their figures, and now our
neighbor complains because the contract
was given to a Republican on accout of he

SAN FRANCISCO.-October 2.-The ty-
phoon which visited the southern part of
Japan August 2Oth, was one of the most
severe ever experienced by foreigners.
The steamer Ping or Goaloo and the Ger
man bark Hamburg, were driven on the
rocks at Nagasaki. The iron-clad ram
Stonewall was sunk. Hundreds of Japan
eese iunks were wrecked, and fully two
hundred lives were lost at Nagasaki alone.
Storehouses were overthrown. The Gov
ernor's new house is a heap of ruins. Kabe
also suffered Not less than one thousand
iunks were wrecked. Sagokan came in for
a share of the typhOon. Six thousand
houses were destroyed and one hundred
lives lost Thousands of cattle on the
plantations were killed.

ANorHER DoDGE.--The Ring party
have almost became exhausted in stories TO
mislead the voters of the county. The last
dodge has lately come to light. They cir
eulate in the upper end that in the coal
region The Republicans will support DR..
John and Mr.. Wilmington, while in the
coal region they allege that il the upper
end Parker and Sherwood would receive the
Republican vote. This is done to create
division in the Republican ranks, upon
which their only hope of success is based.
IL is email business to circulate such false
hoods, but then we could not expect much
better from men who cheat their best men
in the Democratic party. If they have no
conscience left, and deceive their own
friends, surely they will have no compunc-
iions of con science for their opponents.

Some of the Democratic papers are try
ing 10 make capital out Of the present low
wages paid to laborers. We like TO see
high wages, for it makes everything pros
porous, and the Republicans endcavor to
secure such wages for labor by insisting on
a tariff for the protection of industry, while
the Democrats of the State even, in their
late Convention, refused to say word for
protection. They evidently are at heart
tainted with the old Buchanan idea of "ten
cents a day. and specie currency.
