 SlumbeEins on mother's breast; For the arm he stretched 10 save US, Be its morn forever blesti Hear the tale of youthful glory.
 While of Britain's rescued hand. Friend and foe repeat the story. Spread his fame OCT sea and land Where the red cross. proudly streaming. Flaps above the frigate's deck, Where the golden lilies gleamiug, Star the watchtowers of quebec. Look, the shadow on the dial Marks the hem of daadlier strifei Days of terror, years of trial
 Scourge q nation into life Lo, Che yartH became the leader. All her bIfficd tyrants yield, Through his arm the Lord has freed her; Crown him on the tented field. Vain Is empires mad temptation;
 Not for him an earthly crown! He whose sword hath freed d nation Strikes the offered seePtsr down. See the throueless couqueror seated, Ruler by peoples choice; See the patriot task completed;
 Hear the fathers dying voice. By the name that yeu inherit.
 By the sufferingS you recall, Cherish the fraternal spirit;
 Love your country first of all! Listen not to idle questions,
 If it's bands may be united; Douht tbe patriot whose suggestions Whisper that its props may side Father we whose ears have tingIed With the words of doubt and shame We, whose sires their blood have mingled In the battles thuHder-Aame, Gathering, while this holy morning Lights the land from seq 10 sea. Hear thy counsel, heed thy waFRiEg Trust us, while we honor thee!

 Maggie grasped his outstretehed hand and in moment was behind the lldJ Nibu Itl al Hl9 Us AtAa Sitt7 l'1a about his waist.
 "Now, Jehu, go!" said the major 10 his horse, and the black steed started with the speed of the wind. Maggie almost lost her grasp as the major turned for q moment and replied with q tannting yell to the band which he could see swiftly approaching down the hillside; but her arms were strong, and though her face was white and her eyes blurred, she clung to her protector throughout the wild ride which fol- lowed.
 On swept Jehu with his load, and on came the band of red coats. The woods by the roadside seemed to rush past them. The breathing of tine horse was soon labored and hard, and his black sides were covered with foam; but his swift pace was never relaxed for an in staut Once or twice he stumbled and nearly fell, but q sharp pull on the bridle and a quick word from the ma ior restored him and the mad race eontin- aed His hoofs thundered over the rude bridges. they struck fire from the stones in the road but Jehu minded none of these things, for life and death hung on his efforts that day.
 For an hour the mad race continued, and then, when the borders of German town were reached and the red coats turned back in fear. Maj. Tallmadge drew the rein on his black steed, and, as he helped the wearied girl to the ground he said, with a smile: "fTis a pity we lost that bread, Maggie, for Washington sadly needs it; bnt far more he needs what the bread cen- tained and what he will soon have now.
