THE zoe IN rHE BOTTLE.
BY MRS. CHARLOTTE. Avrps


When slavery ruled with iron SWAY
And freedom shrieked beneath lis reign
how many patriot hearts were moved
To break the oppTessors' chainI
From eset 10 west, from north to soush.
Ane pulpit ana the press were heard,
IN tongues OF hre and words OF flame,
III ali the nations pulse was stirred
Nor paused not till the cause was won
MI ne syEans rom hls throne was hurled
And freedoms banner wide unfurled.
But now 4 mightier, deadlier foe
InVades our land. our household shrines;
Destruction follows in his path,
Which to eternal death iHclines.
The old, the middle-aged and youth
ran victims easy to his sway;
Unerringly his darts he aims
And Stays his thousands day by day
Princes. potentates and kings
He binds unto his chariot wheels
With chains more CALLING, more seTyile,
Than Russian dungeon ere reveals
His name-I need not tell his name
It's written in the crimson tide
" h1ch noEs from CHASTITY, loathSome wound
His Votar1es strive in vain to hide.
Go read it in the maniac's shrek,
Confined within a prisons cell,
where demons laugh and satyrs dance,
And hends incarnate with him dwell.
IT'S written on the marble brow
Where golden treSses lately waved;
Go read upon those CORY hands
His name in capitals engraved.
His name-go mark that mothers tears,
And hear her plead in accents wild,
" it'll paliid lips and fTenzIed tongue.
"Oh. fell destroyer, spare my chlldp'
But why attempt the woes to tell
Which follow in his fiery train,
For imaginatiOn's fancy fails,
And eioquence itself grows tame.
Rise risei Columbia, in thy power,
| Whose banner floats DER land and sea,
And in eternal strength resolve
From this vile curse we will be free
