HOLD THE HARVEST"
BY MISS FANNIE PARNELL.

Oh, by the God that made us all,
The seignior and the serf,
Rise up and swearihis day to hold
Your own green Irish turf;
Rise up and plant your feet as men
Where now We crawl as slaves;
And make Your harvest fields your camps,
Ormake of them your graves.
The birds of prey are lowering round,
The yultureS Wheel anu swoop;
They come-the ceronetted ghouls--
With drum-betEta and with troop.
They come to fatsn on your flesh.
Your children aud your wives;
Ye die but once. hold fast your lands,
And, gye can, your lives.
Three hundred years your crops have sprung
By murdered coipses fed;
Your butchered sires-your famished Sires-
For CHASTITY compost spread;
Their bones have fertiliZed your fields,
Their blood has fallen like rain;
They died that ye might eat and live
God have theYdicd III vain?
But God is on the peasants side,
The God that loves the poor;
His angels stand with flaming swords
On every mount and moor;
They guard the poor mans focks and herds
They guard his ripening grain,
Beside his ill-got gain.
But your own hands upraised to guard
Shall draw the answer down,
And bold and stern the deeds must be
That oath and prayer shall crown;
God will defend you in the fight,
Now hush the useless moan,
And set your faces Us a flint,
And swear TO hold your own!
The above spirited poem is destined to become
historic. 1t was read by Auorney-General Law,
prosecutor for the British crown, in his opening
speech against Parnell and his fellowtraversers of

that which the Attorney General intended. and

fire it ranks with Father Ryan's poem, 'Erin's

was charged sgainst Ioconneil in the state trials
of forty years ago.

The Dorsey Dinner.


A marked event of the season in New
York will be the banquet rendered to
ex-senator Dorsey by leading business
men of that city, to take place on Friday,
the 1lth instant. The invitations are out
for a company of over two hundred
They come from committee embracing
the following names:
John Jacob AstOr, Robert Lennox Kennedy,
}. PierpOnt Morgan, F. s. Winston,
John A. Stewart, Henry B. Hyde,
Levi 2. Morton, ID. O. Mills
Thurlow Weed, LIE Grand B. Cannon,
Jesse Seligman, Wm. B. Dinsmore
Frank Work NJ W. Cooper
One hundred and fifty invitations have
been sent out for residents of New York
city alone, of which number all but two
have responded that they will be present.
The invitations for Washington embrace
prominent officers of the Government and
leading Senators and members of the
House. These have very nearly all ex-
pressed their intention to be present. The
affair promises to be the grandest one of
the kind ever rendered to public man
In the United States. Gentlemen who
never have attended a public dinner, and
who had declared they never would, have
consented to act on the committee on this
occasion.
This tribute to Senator Dorsey is well
deserved. Earnest and true to the Re-
publican cause, he consented to accept the
secretaryship of the National Committee
nthe late campaign. He fully illustrated
the old Scotch saying that "Where the
Mciregor is, there is the head of the
table" To his splendid power of organi-
zation, his untiring energy, and his un-
finching courage was due more than to
any other ten men the marvellous result
of the October election in Indiana
The venerable Simon Cameron said of
that campaign that it was the most brill
liant achievement ever accomplished in
the politics of the United States, and such
is the general opinion. The Republicans
of Indiana know that what we say is not
whit too strong. But for Senator Dorsey's
work in Indiana there would have been
'disastersthere, and after that nobody can
say what would have been the result.
Inview. of the great influence of Senator
Dorsey'swork in Indiana upon the des-
TIMES ofsthe country, we have treated the
testimonial to him of the leading business
men Of New York editorialiy, because ii
is really matter of public interest.
Some hope is entertained that the Presi-
saent-eleet may be present at the banquet.
