Along with the cymbal’s fitful clash, And the growl of his sullen drums ; ’.7e hear it-we heed it, with veangeful thrill) And we shall not forgive or forget— There’s life in the streams, there’s hope in the hills There’s life in the Old Land yet. Minions I We sleep but we are not dead, We’re crushed, we’re scourged, we’re scared - We crouch—’tis to welcome the triumph-trend- Os the peerless Beauregard ; Then woe to your vile, polluting horde, When the Southern braves are met— There’s faith in the victor’s stainless sword, There’s life in the Cid Land yet! Bigots ! ye quell not the valiant mind With the clank of an iron chain— The spirit of freedom sings in the wind O’er Merryman, Thomas, and Kune And we, though we smite not. are not thralls -- We are piling a gory debt, While down by McHenry's dungeon walls There’s life in the Old Land yet! Our women have bung their harps away, And they scowl on your brutal bands, While the nimble, poinard dares the day In their dear, defiant hands ; They will strip their tresses tostring our bows Ere the northern sun is set. There's faith in their unrelenting woes— There's life in the Old Land yet! There’s life tbo' it throbbet,h in silent veins, ’Tis vocal without noise. It gushed o’er Manassas’ solemn plains From the blood of the Maryland boys. That blood shall cry aloud, and rise With an everlasting threat, By the death of the brave, by the God in the skies. There's life in the Old Land yet! BEN M’CUI.LI.OCH ANDTSIE DUTCH CAPTAIN. IIOW BEN MADE HIM UNSWEAR THE MISSOURIANS. The New Orleans corrcsponclent of . 4 v .... tmnrniovv- the Mirevepoi L N<>wo.— Among the incidents occurring’ in Missouri, lite following is told of Ben McCulloch, by :i man now in this city, from the seat of war. As near as I can recollect, the folic wing is the good ’un: A the battle of Neosho, victory crowned our arms, and among the pris oners taken was a regiment or so of Dutch. Those Dutch, it seems, had in their possesion as prisoners ol war a party of some lol) unarmed Missouri ans who were making’ their way to join our forces. Ben learned afier the battle that those 150 were in the pos session of the Hessian infidels, and ac cordingly made a request to sec them. The Dutch Captain, of course, “know ing t'nat discrel ion was the letter part of valor, proceeded with Ben to their place ol confinement. Alter the usual salutations Ben asked the Captain of he capture<l Missourians why lie al lowed himself ami men to be taken prisoners by a pack < f Dutch, to which the Captain replied that l:e could not help it, as he was unarmed, and enemy were superior in numbers Well, said Ben, if you had arms would you light for the Confederacy? “Os course I would, if 1 could,” answered tfre Alia*- sourians. “What’s to hinder yon,’ 7 said Ben, rather non plussed “Why, Capt. Mc- Culloch,” answered the Missourian, “that Dutch captain made us take an oath that we would not take up arms against the United States.” “Did you do that “said Ben, turning io the Dutch captain. “0! yeas, I dun that,” replied Dufcliy, “but I vas only doing my duty,” he continued. “Doing your h—ll,’' replied Ben, in dignantly," “Do you call it y.nirduty to make a man swear against his coun try?” ‘‘Vail, I can’t belli dat,” said Dutch; “I vas only obeying the orders of my zuberior officer. “Well, I want, you to obey me now,” said Ben, “so take that Bible, ami un swear every one them men back into the Southern Confederacy.” Dutchy proceeded to do as ordered, to thegreat amuseinciit of the gallant Missourians, who were (after the operation) aimed witii some of I ncle Sam's arms taken from Dutchy’s men, and the said Hes sians marched oil as prisoners by those Missourians, who, a short time before were their prisoners, ami went <>n then wayfexcept the Dutch) rejoici u;;;. £-Tj~f'oi.
