Patriotic Poetry.
It would appear as if the times were cc out
of joint" as respects the production of patri
otic lyrics worthy of this important crisis, We
are inundated with rhymed rhapsodies about
the Union and the National Flag, but such a
thing as a really good national lyric has not
yet been sent to us by any contributor. In
this condition, we take a few patriotic poems
from other journals,—not all quite as good as
they ought to be, considering their glorious
theme, but yet more or less worthy of being re
published.
First, from the New York Independent, we
have
THE STRIPES AND THE STARS
BY EDNA BRAN PROCTOR.
Ath.—" The atar•Spangled Benner."
0 Star-Spangled Banner!! the flag of our pride !
Though trampled by traitors and basely defied,
Fling out to the glad winds your Red, White', and
Blue,
For the heart of the North•land is beating for
you!
And her stzong arm is nerving to strike with a
will
Till the foe and him boastings are humbled and
Still !
Here's welcome to wounding, and combat and
wars
And the glory of death—for the stripes and the
stars !
From prairie, 0 ploughman ! speed boldly away,
There's seed to be sown in God's furrows to-day;
Row inzidward, lone fisher! stout woodman, come
bottle!
Let smith leave his anvil; audisaver hie loom,
And hamlet and city ring loud with the cry, •
" For God and our country we'll fight till we die !
Here's welcome to wounding, and combat and
1308111,
And the glory of death—for the stripes and the
stare !"
Inrinelble banner ! the flag of the fret.
0 where treads the foot that would falter for thee?
Or the hands to be folded till triumph is won,
And the eagle looks proud, as of old, to the sun?
Give tears for the parting—a murmur of praer—
Then forward !! the fame of our standard to s hare!
With welcome to wounding and combat and soars,
And the glory of death—for the stripe, and the
dare.
0 God of our fathers ! this banner must shine
Where battle is hottest, in warfare divine.
The cannon has thundered, the bugle has blown;
We fear not the summons—we fight not alone !
0 lead us, till wide from the golf to the sea
The land shall be sacred to freedom and thee !
With love for , oppression; with blessing for soars ;
One oonntre—one banner—the atripea and the
stars !
Next, from the Newark Daily -Rdvertinr, a
poem written by Mr. Thomas Frazer, and read
at a meeting held at Newark, on Tuesday
last, to form a Highland corps. It was dedi
cated to the 79th Highland Regiment of New
York
THE SEVENTY-NINTH.
Ara—'' Here's to the year that's awa."
Come muster, my bonny brave Soots,
An' muster your clans ane an' a'
Nor heed who else lags, so the free Thistle wags,
When treason drives Right to the we' ;
For Freedom, for Union, an' Law,
We'll do a' that true men may dare;
An' come weal or come soaitte, for these to the
death—
The Seventy-ninth will be there
Come stir, then, an' trim for the wank;
Come Borderer, Lowlander, Celt,

• Will soon mak the sold grit be felt.
We'll show how Auld bootiand for Truth
Rae bluitt in her heart yet to spare,
An' let us but ken when the Truth may want
men--
The Seventy-ninth will be there !
Then hem out the pipes wr a cheer,
An' up wi' some heart-thrillin' strain'
To mind us the field is where !dote never yield,
While ae chance to win may remain.
Syne shout, lads, the auld battle-ory—

When done Southron knaves wad mak North-folk
their slaves—

In what could be holier cause !

The Washington Sunday Morning Chronicle,
a journal which fully maintains the high opin
ion we formed of it from a careful perusal of
the first number, gives us the following, which
has a good deal of the ring of the true metal z
GOD SAVE OUR NOBLE UNION.
BY. H. CLAY YEEIISS.
It Game to us through darkness,
It *WM to us through blood ;
It shone out like the " Promise
Of God " upon the flood.
A beacon, it has served us
With true, unerring flame,
And cast a blaze of glory
Upon our nation's name.
God save our noble Union
'Twas left us by our fathers,
Those souls of priceless worth--
The noblest types of manhood
That ever walked the earth.
'Twos bought with fearful struggles,
By saorifice sublime,
And stands a proud memento
For all the coming time.
God save our noble Union
Our land, a waste of nature,
Where beast and savage strayed;
Its wealth of lakes and rivers
Unlocked by keys of trade.
Then sun-liks 'rose the Union—
A terror to our foes—
And 10 ! this " waste of nature"
Now "blossoms as a rose."
Orod save our noble Union'
Where earth lay hid for ages
In deep, primeval gloom,
Behold a boundless garden—
A continent in bloom.
With iron bands of railroads,
Bleotrio tongues of wire,
And energies within us
Which time shall never tire.
god save our noble Union !
But now upon our Heaven
Are signs of ooming storms,
And fforoo, unholy passions
Unfold their hideous forms.
The bravest hearts among us
Are ailed with doubt and fear,
While sounds of horrid disoord
Are greeting on our ear.
trod save our noble Union !
The hallowed flag that bore us
So proudly through the wars,
Is there a band would sever
. 4 Its sisterhood of stars? •
Great God! Gan we so blindly
Cast all Thy ilifts away ?
Or throbs there in this nation
One heart that will not pray—
God save our noble Union?

poetry in his day, bas contributed apiece, thought

STEAM-FRIGATE PAWNEE PASSING MOUNT
VERNON, April 0, 1861.
BY ISAAC N'LAILLAW.
"In passiig down the Potomac river, and arri
ving opposite Mount Vernon, a beautiful and
graceful tribute was paid to the sacred remains
that He entombed in that hallowed spot. All hands
were called, officers in swords and epaulets, sailors
in their neat uniforms, the fine guard of the Paw
nee drawn up, with belt and musket, at a given
signal the large American ensign fell at half-mast ;
the ship's bell tolled out its muffled tones, the
melancholy drums rolled their funereal salute,
while the presented arms and uncovered heads of
officers and men paid a sad tribute of respect to
him who was first in war, first in
_peace, and
first in the hearts of his countrymen ;' and so the
Pawnee passed on, silent and mourning; for he
by whose grave she glided was the Father of his
Country."—Morning paper.
Fast down the bay the frigate pass'd,
With swelling sail and bending mast,
For the blue ocean bound.
From slender gaff and topmost spar,
The ensign of the " stripe and star"
Flung its emblazoned folds afar—
The brave flag, world-renownld!
The hundred seamen, stout and bold,
Were gather'd 'neath that azure fold
To guard it evermore;
While life should last, while heart should beat,
In Arctic ice, in Tropic heat,
That flag should be their winding sheet
The rugged seaman swore.
Though foemen might their hurricane
Of shot and shell around them rain,
From bastion and front wall
Though red with gore their decks should flow,
Though roast and spar were level'd low,
Ah ! never, never from their foe
Would they for mercy call!
On as they swept Mount Vernon s a shade
Its soaring cenotaph display'd,
Its monumental tomb ;
Then with reverential tread,
With folded arms, uneoverd head,
The warriors from those batteries dread
Gaa'd forth with looks of gloom.
Their ensign at the haltmast fell,
The ship bell toll'd its solemn knell,
Sad music wail'd its strains ;
With downoaat, saddon'd, mournful race
Eaoh gaa'd upon that holy place,
That held in sorrowful embrace
Their Father's great remain
TWO CENTS.
No whisper breath'd that sailing crew
As fast the laboring vessel flew,
Fast by that sacred shore;
Each mus'd on that Great Heart that led
The armies in "theyears long fled,
And for the North-and• South realm bled—
United now no more !
They mused on Dim and his :item ranks
Whose swords blaz'd o'er the battle-flanirr,
In many a stormy year;
Whose flags along the Atlantic coast
O'er many a battle-field were lost,
'Till triumphant the mighty host
Caned from their great career'.
Methinks, in Fanny's mystic haze,
As forth in dreamingmood they gaze,
They might the Dead discern ;
Might see thro' salt fogs of the deep,
Pale phantoms, such as haunt our sleep,
In spectral, vast procession sweep,
O'er that memorial urn I
Might See in each dim, moody glade
Arm'd cohorts, in long cavalcade
Olose round that lonely tomb;
While Re, the august Father, stands
Sad musing 'mid his war-worn bands,
Lamenting that his country's lands
Are darkening now in gloom!!
Lamenting that red hands are thrust
To rend above his very dust
The starry banner low !
To drag the noble standard down
By leaguer'd fort; embattled town,
Where batterios retentions frown,
As against some foreign foe.
• . * *
On, on the noble vessel glides,
By dangerous reef, e'er raging tides,
Fleet as an eagle's sweep; .
God grant that.no red fraternal speak
Of carnage stain her spotless deak, '
Nor amid the battle's crashing wreak
She founder in the deep !
Lastly, we take from Fitzgerald's City Item,
which seems to have a neat of singing birds in
its Columns, a poem: -from the pan of Mr.
Daniel Kane O'Donnell, a writer of no small
proinisb; whose chief fault is that, as yet, he
appears to neglect the labor iime—he has not
learned how to blot. When be SequireS the
art of condensing his thought(lie will take a
high place among• our young Song-writers.
Here is his poem
ANNIVERSARY GE LEXINGTON
.19rs APRIL, 1861.
BY DANIEL BANE O'DONNELL.
Ilow grandly glows this 4011. day,
And gilds you proudly piercing spires!
Our banner streams from every height,
And wakes again our martial fires;
Relumes one glorious olden day
With light of this , triumphal sun
And myriad freemen guard the lurid
Where twenty millions speak as one
For Sumpter's guns have thundered loud,
And deep has answered unto deep;
No other voice there need to rouse
The slumbering lion from his sleep.
And we to them who tempthis rage,
And w 0 to them who vaunt with words
They sowed, not we, the dragon's teeth—
Tim land shall bristle up with swords !
To arms ! To arms! Like lightning went
The watahword of the thrilling hour
A million heroes start to war—
The patriots rise ; let treason cower!
Though wart their faces, though too long
The sword bath in its scabbard stood,
Mark well the stubborn hands that dere
To write their prinoiples in blood !
Yes! brave New England's up again,
With prowess of the olden day;
The pine tree banner swung aloft,
And bayoneta in stern array
Come, Lexington and Bunker Hill !
Is Warren dead? is Pomeroy?
Where's Putnam and Nathaniel Greene,
Old Stark the Mountain Boy?
What need to ask ? they have not left
Their ancient faith in Liberty ;
Rise up to-day the valiant men
Great Freedom ! who have died for thee
Up. Pennsylvania, strike once more
With furious Wayne, like mighty Mars ;
Up, Morgan, Metter, Bliffln—strike!
Cadwalader—to horse ! to horse !
On, Muhlenberg, with prayer and sword,
Saint Peter of that martial faith
Whose valor baaed upon a rock,
With truth unconquered e'en in death !
Come, Stirling end Montgomery,
Ye generous aliene, fierce in Sett--
Steuben and Lafayette renew
The glorious battle for the Right !
And, oh, Virginia, though no more
Great nurse of loyal men and free,
Ono glory lights thy droar decay,
And sheds its godlike scorn on thee !
For Vernon yields its hero up
Who led the sacred fields of yore,
And patriots fight whore Scott commands
And Washington has stood before !
Thaw hat"- , Far nn nalfiyh nl
The righteous struggle of Me good—
What though our country's sun grows red
And all her rays are rained in blood?
Ay, weloomo war ! on them the blame
Who call our iron legions forth,
A.nd speed thy vengeanos like a doom,
tionl of the lionhearted North!
But hark'. the guns at Baltimore !
Two freemen' ull—NesseEngland braves !
Yet, low 'no a th their avenging fire,
Ten Cowards slink to unknown grayer,
God help the right ! apeen well your sun !
The sacred 'battle has begun:
Strike, Massachusetts, for your fame!
Strike! and remember Lexington!
We shall here conclude, without asking petunia
don from the author, by printing a patriotic and
earnest lyric, which, in our opinion, is one of the
best poems yet produced under the excitement of
the present eventful time. It is from the pen of
Col. J. W. Forney, who has remained at his poet in
Washington, and has found time, amid his multi
farious occupations, to write such good poetry and
high patriotism as the following, which he has de
dicated to the Sixth Massachusetts Regiment :
TEE MEN WHO FELL IN BALTIMORE
BY JOHN W. FORNEY
Our country's oall awoke the land
Prom mountain height to ocean strand.
The. Old Koyatoue, the Bay State, too,
In all her direst dangers true,
Resolved to answer to her cry,
For her to bleed, for her to die ;
And so they marched, their flag before,
For Washington, through Baltimore.
Our men from Berke and Schuylkill alma—
Lehigh and Mifflin in their train :
First in the field they sought the way,
Hearts beating high and spirits gay :
Heard the wild yells of fiendish spite,
Of armed mobs on left and right ;
But on they marched, their fleg before,
For Washington, through Baltimore.
Next came the Massachusetts men,
Gathered from city, glade and glen :
No hate for South, but love for all,
Thpy answered to their country's call.
The path to them seemed broad and bright ;
They sought no foeman and no fight ;
As on they marched, their flag before,
New England's braves through Baltimore. -
But when they showed their martial pride,
And closed their glittering columns wide,
They found their welcome in the fire
Of maddened foes and demons dire,
Who, like the fiend, from hell sent forth,
Attacked these heroes of the North :
These heroes bold, with travel Bore,
While Ott their way through Baltimore.
From every stifling den and street,
They rushed the gallant band to meet—,
Forgot the cause they came to save—
Forgot that those they struck were brave—
Forgot the dearest ties of blood
That bound them in one brotherhood—
Forgot the flag that floated o'er
Their countrymen in Baltimore.
And the great song their sen had penned,
To rally freemen to defend
The banner of the stripes and stars,
That makes victorious all our wars,
Wes laughed to scorn, as madly then
They greeted all the gallant men
Who came from Massachusetts shore
To Washington, through Baltimore.
And when, with wildest grief, at last,
They saw their comrades falling fast,
Full on the hell-hounds in their track
They wheeled, and drove the cowards bask.
Then, with their hearts o'erwhelmed with wee,
Measured their progress, stern and slow ;
Their wounded on their shoulders bore
To Washington, through Baltimore.
Yet, while New England mourns her dead,
The blood by Treason foully shed,
Like that which Sowed at Lexington,
When Freedom's earliest fight begun,
Will make the day, the month, the year,
To every patriot's memory dear.
Bons of great fathers gone before,
They fell for Right at Baltimore
As over every honored grave,
Where sleeps the l! unreturning brave,"
A mother sobs, a young wife moans,
A father for his lost one groans,
Oh ! let the people ne'er forget
Our deep, enduring, lasting debt
To those who left their native chore
And died for us In Baltimore.
We conclude with this spirited effusion by a
Philadelphian. Next tbue, we hope to be able
to place before our readers poems at least 55
good as those we ^ now submit to their at
tention.

LITTER PRO! HON. GARRETT DAVIE.
The following letter is eddreseed to the editor of
theLoulsvil le Journal, from as old friend of Henry
Clay
BALTIMORE, April 25, 1861.—Gno. D. PRENTICE,
Esq. : , Dear Sir—Early last week I determined,
upon my own reflection and impulse, to make a
hurried run to Washington, to take a view of pub.
lie *train there, and from there, and to talk with
the President and some members of his Cabinet in
relation to our national troubles, and how the Ad
ministration intend to treat them.
I found the President frank and calm, but deci
ded and firm. He expressed deep eoncern and re
gret for the existing condition of public affairs,
and his hope that there would yet be a restoration
of the Union, and amity among all the States. He
remarked, that •neither be, nor any other Pfeil
dent, who had been elected by a party, could ad
minister the Government in sued amordanee with
his own opinions and judgment; but must make
some departure to satisfy those who had platted
him in power. That before the Carolinians had
made their attack on Sumpter, be had decided not'
to reinforce or to attempt to reinforce its garrison,
but merely, and only, to supply its handful of
famishing men with food; and that he had dia.
tinotly communicated these purposes tO the au
thorities of the Southern Confederation. That he
had also determined that, until the meeting of
Congress, he would make no attempt to retake the
forte, Ise., belonging to the United States, which
had been unlawfully seized and wrested from their
possession, but would leave the then existing etas
of things to be considered and acted upon by Con
gress, unless he should be constrained to depart
irom that purpose by the contiated military ope-
rations of the seceded Stater.
The President further said that events had now
reached a point when it must be decided whether
our system of Federal Government was only a
league of sovereign and independent States, from
which any State could withdraw at pleasure, or
whether the Constitution formed a Government
invested with strength and powers eldeolent to up
hold its own authority, and to enforce the execu
tion of the laws of Congress. That he had no doubt
of the truth of the latter proposition, and he in
tended to make it good in the administration of
the Government to the extent that he should be
sustained by the people of the United States.
Se-remarked, also, that he had expected all the
States upon which he had made a requisition for
military aid, to enable him to execute the laws, to
respond to that oall • and particularly the State of
Kedtattly,-which had been so loyal to the Union
andfaithful in the performance of all her duties:
Thant& greatly regretted She had not acted up to
the principle of her great statesmen now no more,
anti for which she oast her vote in. the late Pr/ad
denda' election, " the Union, the` Constitution;
and tele Enforcement of the Laws." •
That he intended to make no attack, direct or
indirect, upon the institutions or property of, any
State; but, OD the contrary, would defend them
to the full extent with which the Constitution and
laws.of Congress have vested the President with
the power. And that he did not intend to invade
with an armed force,or make any military or
naval movement again st any State, unless she or
her people should make it necessary by a formida.
ble resletance of the authority and laws of the
United States. That if Kentucky or her citizens
should seize the post of Newport, it weald become
hie dutyeand he might attempt to retake it; but
he contemplated no military operations that would
make it neesoartry to move any troops over her
territories—though he had the unquestioned right
at all times to march the United States troops into
and over any and every State. That if Kentuoky
made no demonstration of force against the Lnited
States he would not molest her. That he regret
ted the necessity of marching troops across Mary
land, but forces to protect the seat of the United
States Government could not be concentrated
there without doing so; and he intended to keep
-open a line of communication through that State
to Washington oity, at any risk, but in a manner
least calculated to irritate and inflame her people.
In this time of gloom and danger, when the na
tion is being rocked to its base, and eo many States
are leaping headlong into the abyee of revolution,
it ie the paramount duty of every true sou of. Ken
tacky to give all his efforts to save her from the
fatal plunge, and thus keep away from her borders
the most terrible of all scourges, a civil and servile
war. Let her not become a party to this most an.
neoeSsary, unnatural, and revolting sectional strife.
She had neither part nor lot in bringing it on. It
was precipitated by its arrogant authors without
condescending to consult her, against her earnest
remonstratme, and to put in peril all her inte
rests, every hearthstone within her borders, and
all her women and her children. Its flashes and
thunders are gleaming and breaking in the
Southern horizon over the guilty heads of those
who dared it, would have it, and there let It
rage and waste its fury. There is no call of in
terest, of honor, or of duty upon us to rush into
it, and thus avert it ;from the South, and bring
down its fury upon ourselves, Will we permit
our sympathies for those who had none for us,
or our reckless knight-errantry, to intervene at
the cost of having our fair and peaceful land
ravaged with fire and sword ? Let Kentucky look
to herself and her own self preservation in this
dread hour. Let her stand immovable as a rock
peering above the tempest-tossed ocean, and ea the
red waves of war, from North or South, beat
against her firm ban, let her roll them back with
all their desolation. "To enable her to perform this
difficult and perilous duty, let her clothe herself
in full panoply. Let all her men and all youths
DrOetife for themselves the moat effective arms, and
- then themselves form an independent organisation
of companies, regiments, and divisions. Let them
drill thoroughly, and always be ready to defend
their homes and their State from all enemies,
within or without.. Let them put themselves an
der the command of brave sod faithful men who
are known to have no object but the defence and
preservation of our Commonwealth and the reoon•
struotion of the Union. Let us husband all oar
resources and perfect our military organization,
and when the contending parties become worn and
wasted by a prolonged and bloody war, we out
then effectively interfere to command a general
peace. Faithfully yenta,
Astounding Developments.
THE CITIES OF NEW YORK ; PHILADELPHIA AND
BOSTON ALL TO BE BURPED.
Some days since the police were informed that
the Croton water mains were to be cut near the
High Bridge, and the city simultaneously fired in
several places. A strong guard was immediately
trationed upon the line of mains, and since then
it has been materially strengthened. It is not
believed that any attempt to effect snob a barba
roue destruction of property could now be success
fully attempted, as the police have been on the
alert ever eine., and fall preparations were
made to repel any attack. Since then, however,
the Superintendent has received information of so
positive a character that there is but little rea
son to doubt that the plot was really planned, and
is jet intended to be carried into execution. Cer
tain prominent men are deeply implicated, It le
said, in this infamous plot, which extends to Bos
ton and Philadelphia. The three cities will be
consumed upon the same night, and at as nearly
the saute time as possible. It is hard to believe
that any body of men could be engaged in so dia
bolical an enterprise, but the faote all warrant the
opinion that the plot was laid, and that parties
were sworn to carry it Into execution. The
Knights of the Golden Circle, as usual, figure in
the transaction quite prominently—they, in feet,
being suspected of having originated the plot, and
of furnishing the men who were to execute it.
The following letter was received last evening, by
Superintendent Kennedy, and it has en honest
tone about it, likely to excite attention, it not
create alarm. Here it is
Loninvit.r.x, April 30th.
Sin; I have travelled four hundred miles to be
able safely to mail this letter. A thoroughly or•
ganized plot is now in progress of emotion to
burn New York, Philadelphia, and Boston. A
portion'of the men assigned to your city are
already in your midst, and others are on their
way. I know what I say to he true. I dare not
tell you how I know, for that would lead to my
inevitable detection, the consequences of which
you can readily guess.
The intention is to fire the three cities simulta
neously, at as many places as possible, and at the
same hour at night. This is to he done the night
before the attack on Washington. * sk * hex
the direction of the whole plot. One hundred and
twenty five men have been assigned to your city
and Brooklyn, and eighty to each of the others.
This is not a movement of the Government, though
known to Davis. At first he discountenanced it,
but singe Lincoln's proclamation ha has withdrawn
his opposition. The men entrusted with the m
ention of the plot all belong to the inner temple
of the Knights of the Golden Circle.
The plan has been maturing for two months,
but did not include Now York until within a week
or ten days. The men assigned to Boston and
Philadelphia have been at their posts a week, but
the determination to include New York has caused
a delay, and now the time will depend upon how
soon Davie is to attack Washington. I have told
you not all that I know, but all that I can with
safety to myself. The chanter; are yon will disro.
gard the warning, but I feel that I have, at least,
discharged my duty. * 5' * eF /am not your
friend. lam one of the moat unrelenting of your
enemies, but I am an open and, I hope, an honora
ble foe. I expect to fight you to the death, but
not with buffer matches and camphor's.. Do not
the people of the South the injustice to believe
that one out of ten among them would for a mo
ment sanction this hell.begotten scheme. It is
foreign to their nature. * 41 '
We are not at liberty to state anything cou
nseled with the author of this letter, but he is re•
sponsible, and entitled to consideration, at least,
So it is said. The whole thing, to say the least, is
very interesting to the reader about these exciting

WASHINGTON, April 20, 1861.
Go - rearms HICKS AND Mayon Booce—Gentle
men : Your letter by Messrs. Bond, Bobbin, and
Brune is received, 1 tender you both my sincere
thanks for your efforts to keep the peace is the
trying situation in chloh you are plaited. For the
future troops must be brought here, but I make no
point of bringing them through Baltimore.
Without any military, knowledge myself, at
111011558 I mast leave details to General Boot He
hastily said,.this morning. in the present* of then
gentlemen, "March them around Baltimore, and
not through it."
I sincerely hope the General, on fuller refieetion,
will consider this praotteal and proper, and that
you will not object to it.
By this, a collision of the people, of Baltimore
with the troops will be avoided, unless they go out
of their way to seek it. I hope you will exert
your influence to prevent this. = •
Now and ever I shall do all in my power for
peace, consistently with the maintenance of the
Government. Your obedient servant,
A. Immoral.
