plumber. DR.. Beanes, with few
friends, followed these men and made
them prisoners. The act incensed the
British officers, who sent back de-
tachment to release the stragglers, and
put DIR. Beanes under arrest. He was
dragged from his bed at midnight and
hurried away, half dressed, to the
British camp.
Francis Scott Key Immediately went
TO the commander of the army of in
yasion, and by his eloquent plea Sc
cured the release of his family ply
sician and friend: But the attack
upon Baltimore was about to be-
gin. ,and they were detained upon
the frigate Surprise. 1t was from the
deck of this ship that Key and his
friend witnessed the bombardment of
Fort McHenry. There they remained
all night watching every shell from
the moment it was fired until it
fell, listening with breathless interest
to hear if an explosion followed.
While the bombardmentc continued it
was sufficient proof that the fort had
not surrendered But it suddenly
they had no communication with any
of the enemy's ships they did not
know wheth the fort had surren-
dered or the attack upon it had been
abandoned. They paced the deck for
tn" residue of the night in painful sus-
pense, watching with intense anxiety
the return of the day, and looking
every few minutes at their watches to
see how long they must wait for it.
AS soon as it dawned, and before it
was light enough to see objects at a
distance, their glasses were turned to
the fort, uncertain whether they
should see there the stars and stripes
or the flag Of the enemy. At length
came the light, and they saw that 'sour
flag was still there .
AS the day advanced they discovered,
from the movements of the boats be-
tween the shore and the feet, that the
troops had been roughly handled, and
that many wounded men were carried
to the ship.
The attack on the city had failed,
ana as soon as the feet was ready to
sail Mr.. Key and his friend were free
to go where they pleased.
Mr.. Key often afterwards, with
great animation, described his feelings
on that memorable night, and how he
wrote the song. His heart was sick
with anxiety. Hc commenced the

Around me fly the falling leaves
In vain their fate my spirit grieves,
For nature grants us no reprieves.
Throughout the world she holds her sway
Her laws must men and leaves obey,
From dust they spring. to dust decay.
Yet while this requiem we sing,
Our faith looks forward to the spring
That shall the Resurrection bring
Back to the earth for earth's own sake
The falling leaves themselves betake,
But soon in beauty shall awake.
Awhile they mingle with the soil,
Till natures unremitting toll
Shall reproduce with nought of mol.
AS fall the leaves our dear ones fall,
When comes TO each the silent call;
Nor long the grave shall them enthrall.
All, why begrudge them natures sleep?
Why deem the grave so dark, so deep,
Or tears Of hopeless sorrow weep?
For sleeping mOrtaas comes the spring
And joy with morn's awakening:
Immortal life the day shall bring.
Fen death is part Of natures plan.
And hath been since the world began,
Sweet dca tn, unerring friend OF man.
Such are the thoughts my fancy weaves
With brightest hues Of falling leaves
No more my tn oughtful spirit grieves.
