td the fact that tbouj;h y.m may flat a m <n
who i- endeav ri to maintain ti princinl",
yet that prineit'le still lives. Piinciple,
like truth, is sternal ; and evert eff -rt made
to suppress it only tends to cause it to take
deeper hdd on the he trts of men. llist 't v
does not furnish an instance of ,mv j:eo: le
m"rc devoted to their £ 'Vernment and the
l }|v ’’* ' f thejr (Tout)try than were the profile
■d the 8 tub to the Government at'd Cotisti
’tuiiiti as they received them from the
lathers. They wefe always advocates of a
ri'rid adherar.ee to the Constitution; and
when the mo-t prominent feature of tiiat
( nstitmion w;is in diingpr of ht*in <; destr v ~
ed took up arms to defend it, and this is
‘he uiu-e for which they laid down their
lives. Bns, if there i* any one feature in
the (J. hstittition m re clearly set for-h than
anntlier, it is that featuie tlnit ejves to tlie
Suites the riv;!it to manage their local wn d

Such was the cover meat that, they formed,

“Ye*, yHemc a land where the ruins aresprend.

There’s a grand uer in graves—there’s glory in gloom!
Far out of the gloom luture brightness is bem.
As after ihe nig it looms the sunrise ol mum;
And the graves ot the dead, with grass overgrown,

I' not this ti grand idea of Fa'her Rv
;v*i’s? The graves of the soldier’s with grass
overdrawn are to become the ''footstool of
Liberty’s throne." In other word*, the
very graves of our fellow soldier* are to
become the fiundation on which the temple
of Liberty is to be fereeled. If this bo so,
did those meti die in vain? NoSirs! nor did
any man ever iay down his life fir a relig
ious or political principle in vain.

And liberty shrieked as K.*ciu»ku leil.”

the vallevs aid mountains of distant

"V ip® President, When this telpgram reach

in mortal Jack*on ; “A plnin government,

around which there is sued a sacred halo
of glory. Bearing such a motto ac this

sunny fields of Florida, from the Adamic

the higher up this b«*r*r.er is borne ths
least it will be tattered " This subject is
inexhaustible. I might spook to y. n on this
sui jcct ui.tilthe goingduwnofthe *un, but I
wui not detain you longer. Or,e word to the
Sunday-school teachers aud childrcc aud I
am and me. Your songs of praise on this
occasion have been inexpressibly sweet.
Son.-a of patriotic praise are highly proper
—it is a thing plea-ing in the sight of both
tied and man. Look aw.iyto India, China,
Afiica and other despotic nations where
the subjects have to prustrato themselves
before -their monarch, they.have to crawl
• ike filthy worms iu the dust before their
rulers; contrast th:s state of things with
the condition o! the American in the primi
tive da\s of this r«public when every man
could worship God according to thedictates
of his own conscience, under his own vine
and fig tree. Do you not suppose that
your patriot:© hoops ors when they took up
arms und went forth to battle, and after
they had toiled, sufTered and bled to secure
to their defendants a republican firm of
government, that they expeeitd us to put
birth some exertions to perpetuate this lib
erty ? Do you not think it is our duty?
Ims is a duty no man cah neglect without
proving false to hifc country. We were
horn in free America arid taught to bend
the knee to God and him alone; and a tyr
ant si chains wuu'd set uneasy on our hands.
Inc storm of opposition that is gathering is
b .und to sweep over this gieat nation. It
is coming like the flood-tide of a mighty
ocean, w huse waves roll tnouutain high,
and w ill bear down all before it. * It is
coming in the power of the noon-day’s gun
ami more terrible than an army ol banners
to the present party us Centralization. It,
is to sweep away every particle of this
eentr lized despotism, and restore this re
public to its former purity. Wheu that
glorious day shall come, then will the
ladies of tho SifirAi/ South who have
been hotted down in sorrow theso
many years, cast aside their habili
ments ot mourning and come forth
with crowns of laurel on their heads and
with songs ol joy on their lips, and the evry
graves ot the fallen soldiers will cry alottd
and like the morning star sing for joy.
Thar day Indies und gentlemen must soon
come. Continue then to sing your songs of
Praise and w hen the last sweet sound shall
die away on our ears to-day, like the soft
souuds ol an dian Harp 1 have no doubt
but it w’i.l be caught up by the guardian
angel of childhood and youth, and be borne
ou, and on, and on to the city of the New
Jerusalem and there proclaimed aloud to
J'Tir patriotic ancestors hard by the throneof
tlie Eieanal God.
I iik ingenuity ui men is never fully dis
played until sume unusual exigency culls it
into use. In Maine, just now, the wits ot
a large class of ilio population arc turned
toward a solution of the (question of how to
satisfy their appetite for liquor without get
ting entangled iu the meshes of the luw.
e have heard of ribihing more original
than an urragement which was discovered in
a Bangor saloon the other day. Four
pitchers, containing liquor were placed on
a shelf, and attached to them was a cord by
which they could suddenly be tippeu over
into a tub of brine, if hostilities were sud
denly begun by the police. Even this ex
pedient, however, proved abortive, for fbe
• fticcrs discovered iu one of the pitchers
enough liquor to warrant a seizure and a
search of the premises.
Missouri - Ir. n am jo L.noli-u Cafital.—
The iron regions ot Southeastern Missouri
are attracting the attention cf English cap
italists connected with iron trade. They
will erect two large blast-furnacee and a
large rolling-mill at Cape Girardeau this
year, on the Mississippi, fifty miles south of
St. L <uis. The immense iron deposits of
hematite ore in Butler aud Stoddard Coun
ties can be put down at the Cape on the
Mississippi at a very low figure. Coal can
also be placed there at from $3 to 4 per tun.
rhese advantages are readily accepted by
Englishmen wbo are familiar with the
business, and they will invest, largely and
build up -d great iron manufacturing city
at Cape pirardeau. : — American Aifdtan.
