COMPROMISE.
Compromise ! who dares to spoak it
On the nation's hallowed day,
When the air with thunder echoes,
And the roekct-liirhtnings play I
Coiniiromise ! while on the dial
Liberty goes aires back
Scourged, and bound, for our denial,
Firmer to the despot's rack ?
Compromise ! while angels tremble
As we falter in the race !
Cringe, and Hatter, and dissemble !
Wo ! who hold such royul place ?
Compromise ! it suits tho craven '.
Has onr valor stooped so low ?
Havo we lost our ancient ardor
Fuee to face to meet tho foe ?
Compromise is Treason's ally,
Traitors' rr-fage, cowards' raid;
All the wrongs that Justice sutlers
Flourish in its deadly shade.
Compromise is base undoing
Ot the deeds our fathers wrought ;
They, for Riht and Freedom suing
V c, disdaining what they bought.
No ! Ry tho Mayflower's peril
On the w ild and wintry sea ;
By the Pilgrim's prayer ascending,
As he knelt with reverent knee ;
By the fairest day of summer,
Whou the tried, the true, the bravof
Name, nnd lito. and suercd honor
To the Roll of Freedom gave;
Ey the tenrs. the innr-di. the battle,
Where the noble, fearless died
Wild around the cannon's rattle,
Wailing angels at their side ;
By our children's golden future.
By our father's stainless thicld.
That hich tlod and heroes left us,
Wo will never, never yield !
Hour il 1 ye who sit in council.
We, the People, tell you so !
Will you venture "Ycs': to whisper.
V hen the millions thunder No "
Will you sell the nation's birthright,
Heritage of toil and pain,
While a cry of shiuuo and vengeance
Rings from Oregon to Aluiuu ?
Compromise then Separntinu
Such the order of the two :
Who admits the first temptation,
lias the seennd s woik to do.
Compromise the sultry silence !
yepnrntion whii hviiid power !
For n moment's hulcful quiet.
Will you risk that rending hour?
Who would sail tho 3Ii sissiipi ?
Who the mountain ranges hold '
Win Ohio's fertile borders ?
r-ucrauicuto's sand, of gold ?
Wbo-e would be our banner's glory ?
W ho the eagle's Hiu'ht would cluini
Whose our old illustrious story.
Patriot graves, nnd nelds f fame "
Compromise we ser.ru tho offer !
preparation we defy !
''Finn ami free nut one fvrevtrV
Thus the people make reply.
'lealh to every form of Treason,
In the Senate, en the field '."
A hile the chorus swells and echoes

AVo glean from our foreign files, by the
Cily of llaltiinore, the following incidents of
the outbreak in Poland, showing the deter

the active aid rendered to P,ursia by Prussia
and tho atrocities committed by tho Rus
sian troops :

The Ojiinimi .Yiieoi.c publishes a letter
from the Polish poet Mickiewiez, whose
patriotic national songs are now sung by the
insurgents). Il is dated AVarsaw, February
11), and contains these ringing passages :
"-Many liussian and foreign officials do
not understand by what mi amount cf living
dispair we me animated; tlu-y lufume intliii-

imUim, and they never think of the towns
und villages which our tvrantsJiave reduced
to cinders. All here, whether rich or poor, !
before thev know how to speak or think,
have in them the germ of un inextinguL h- t
able hatred of foreign domination. Our i
fathers and grandfathers sull'ete.l all that we
stiller, although we were born in tho midst
of bunging and transportation to. Siberia,
and have all our lives been persecuted, nnd
hunted down bv the most iiil'.iuiou-. men that
could be found in Kussia.
"The insurgents are for their
country, disarmed, l.relerriiig ileum to the
lives thev h ad, and resolved in any case not
to fall into the hand-i of the Kussians. The
rumor circulates that I.angic wic., having
made the mistake of giving battle to the
enemy nt So, ilo-Kry, has been destroyed
How ever, it is but a rumor. '1 lie wounds of
the Kussians are mortal when the terrible
e the of the peasant reach tin in ; the hos
pitals tiro lull, the holilicis exasperated, ami
the Cossacks uvenge lliem.-clvs by killing
all whom thev come across.
V Jew of l.ida has ju-t arrived lure, lie

his sou und whatever proisioii.t he carried
with him, but he makes no complaint ubotit
cither, 'l lio Kussians et lire to nil the coun

Tho Cossaclts can do nolkint; against a band
of insurgents; whos front bristles with a
lino of these truly mtirderotis implements.
Your readers (sp.vsb com'sjiondeut of the
London Starj.mny liuve read in the telcgranis
that Ihc Ku.isians hvebihtu several wiiodcn
cannon from tlu; insurgents. Tho value of
this statement ruiv bu galhered from the
followim; fact : It is, well known that in tho
Hungarian war General Hem, findiiifr it im
possible to fret mental artillery, invented
a species of wooden gun which requires no
great art to manufacture. The puns were
lixed usually on any ordinary vehicle strong
enough to carry the"". They cannot be llred
more than five or sit,Wme')nnd nftrr being
used arc thrown r. f fls worthless. The
Polish insurgents have provided themrelyes
with a number of g'3 of this sort. Tltree
of them, having been already cast aside ns
useless, were found somewhere by the l!us
sians, who of tourso immediately truinpeled
forth to tho world their capture of three
rebel cannon.

A despatch dated nt Warsaw, says : The
Prussian authorities do not merely insure a
free passage to the Hussiau troops, but they
arret travelers who appear -suspicious.
Three young Pole, pupils at French schools
who rccentlv nuitted Paris for Poland, havo
been arrested nt Thorn, and handed over toif anrtliing in the amendments til
th Kussians. One of the voting men, named i feird by the Senator from Herbs aside from
51. Koporcynski, was a ptipil of the military ' enuiieinlion of the most lierelical doe

These persons havo been arretted, and the I
publie prosecutor received instructions at
noon to commence tlie judicial nupiiry.
It is now certain that the Prussian authori
ties not only arrested three young Poles who
had set out from Paris to join their country
men, but have actually given them up to
the vengeance of the Kussian. Another
party of young men, who had followed the
CMiinple, were seized when they found them
selves in Pms.-ian territory, and in all likeli
hood these also have been given up to their
enemy. The following letter from one of
them has been received ia Paris :

1 9, says:

"Tho brother of Colonel Donilnowski was
barbarously murdered: a hid, 15 ears old.

wiine blood out of tho Pole's wounds, und, I
placing it to the lips of the corpse, bhouted
out, 'Drink some ol this punch.
"Xothitig can describe tho degrro of
atrocity which marks this Kussian campaign.
Tho whole of the ollices of the immense

containing papers, deeds, iiceounts, Arc., j
have been destroyed, und the beautiful I
country palace Klemensoy, and another

Jr. Clymor, ( Oc'm.1 31r, Spf:aUcr, I move
tlmt. llio Senate tfo into roinlnittro of the
wltole for special itmendtnent of tlie bill as
follows :
Finf. To insert idler tlio words "pas
sage of laws" the words "in accordance with
the Coimtitntion of the United States and of
the Slate of Pennsylvania."'
Scrniul. To insert after the 'words "speedy
trial" the words "in the district where tho
alleged crimes have been committed."
Mr. r.oT sn. Iconlcis, Mr. Speaker, that
cinnnt understand the language employed,
If the laiiguago u.-ed is anything more than
mere surplusage, it is simply the enuncia
tion of the doctrine of fstnte rights if a new
guise a declaration that, there can be such
a thing as an exclusive allegiance to the
Constitution of the State of Pennsylvania;
that if that Constitution contains anything
conflicting with the Constitution of the Tin
ted States, it is in such a particular higher
and superior to tin? organic law of the Uni
ted States, 1 ramiot consent to any such
doctrine. 1 think tho organic law is em
bodied in tho Constitution of the States, of
Pennsylvania. For one, sir, T shall not be
guilty of the folly, if not of the impudence
of attetnpling to instruct men who have ta
ken the same oath or obligation that I have
taken to support tho Constitution of the
United States, by voting for a resolution in
which is incorporated an amendment of (his
kind. AVc have no right to throw an impli
cation into the teeth of Senators and 1'epre
senlativiss in Congress, that they will pass a
law in violation of tho Constitution of the
United States or in violation of the Consti
tution of the State of Pennsylvania, unless
the latter instiumcnt conflicts w ith the or
ganic law which comprises the covenant of
the States of this Union. If the Constitu-
tton of this State contain no conflicting pro-1
vision of that character, then you are asking j
mcmbocs of (Vivr.'S'i who ure swovm t't sup
port th" Constitution of I he United Slates, I
tt'it to do that which is in violation of their I
oaths of olliee. I would not insult them by
putting any such (pialitication into a simplo
resolution asking for the passage of a law ;
to define offences under the grade of treason. I
buck language is impudent, delimit, trea-
sonable and by no nutans such as should be j
employed by this Legislature in praying for
a boon at their hands.
If the amendments proposed rtre only sur- j
pltisnge, then tliey are Useless a a part of
this re-olution. II they are not sui jilusage, ,
then they me a deliberate insult lo Senators
and members ot Congress nnd an undis
guised insinuation that Ihey, will make law s
not in accordance with the Constitution of
the United Slates. I presume that they un
derstand tlieir ol -ligations jie.t as well as
thu Si nator from lk-rka am comprehend
them, and that tiny act under as solemn a
sense of their responsibility to themselves,
to their country and their God ; and w ith as
full an appreciation of the responsibility
whieh duty devolves upon them. 1 think it
is little short of an insult to put mch a pro
vision on a recommendation to members of
OoniTi'M, who are culled upon to make laws
for tlie nation, lint, as 1 said before, thcro
is concealed under the thin guise of these
amendments the sophistry and hcUi-h doc
trine of State lights a duel line which has
brought about nil the deed'y strife and
bloodshed w hich has desolated almost every
fireside and heaith-stoue throughout tie
entire Xortli. and dyed the very earth with
the heart's blood of friends and brothers.
The stlppo.-itioii that Congress may pass
a law violative of the Cuiisl'.tutioii of tho
State of Pennsylvania is not warranted.
The Constitution of the United Stales is
above and beyond Ihc Con.-titutio l of this
Commonwealth; the allegiance of ftiticu
of Pennsylvania is not to the Stale, but to
the lieiicral (ioveriimrut. I cannot vote for
a ii soluiion. which, bv fair impliciiioii and
j under the fiim-'ie-t disguise, even sipimts at

In tlie year 18 1 U, when Europe banded
for tho final struggle against the power of
Napoleon, thu patriotic Prussian nobles
swept oil their gold nnd silver plalo into
the royal treasury, nnd tho women gave
their jewelry to swi 11 the coffers of the si ate :
the government recognizing the act by es
tablishing tho "Ori'.er of tho Iron Cross."
An interesting ceremony which recalls the
memory of this event is thus noticed in a
letter from Jb'rlbj, which tve Cud in un ling
lish paper :
"An invitation lint lieen sent from the
highest quarter to Minx Jvanny von Schmet
tau to attend the festivities which uro to be
belli next month in honor of the Knights of
the Iron Crosit, and the lady of Field-Marshal
von AVrangel lias solicited her to take tip
her quarters in her house. Miss von Sc hini l
tau is celebrated for the sacriiice she made
on her country's altar at a time when it
needed all the efforts of eveu its humble t
sons and daughters. It was in the spring of
ltUU, when loyal nnd patriotic Prussians
were urged to contribute their utmost to
tiie expenses of tho War of Liberation, then
about to begin, and when numbers of per
sons of all classes brought to the authorities
their plate and trinkets to bo melted or sold
to supply the military ' treasury. Kvcn
pledges of faith and ".flection, rings of
betrothal nnd marriage, memorial prized
immeasurably beyond their intrinsic value,
were by many not withheld ; nnd those w ho
gave up their plain gold rings received in
exchange for them iron ones, with the in
scription, 'Gold gave 1 for iron IS PL'
"Nanny von Schmettau, then a young
girl, possessed no trinkets, nor might of
value to give for the furtherance of the cause
the success of which she desired with ardent
and patriotic enthusiasm. She had nothing
that was gold, save her golden hair. The
most popular German historian of the 'Wat
of Liberation, Dcit.ke, tells her story :
" 'In the neighborhood of Brcslau,' he
says, 'a young girl, Fcrdinando von Sclimet
tan, set a brilliant example, ller father, an
old retired ollicer, lived near Olilau, in very
straitened circumstances, with a family of
eleven children, on a pension of six hundred
thalers. AVhen the public appeal came he
sacriticed his carefully-preserved dress shab
rack. Jlother and sisters gave their rings
and little ornaments ; Fcrdinando, then six
teen years old, had nothing to give, and was
inconsolable. Sho pondered long on what
she could contribute. She had beautiful
hair which many had often envied her, and
she sacrificed it in order lo contribute the
mouey it yielded to tho volunteers. Her
noblo aim was fully attained ; one was
found who repurcha-bed the hair nnd had
nil manner of ornaments mndo out of it, by
the sale of which twelve hundred thalers
were renliwd, end four volunteers were
completely t-'piippi d.'
"The incident has I con treated in a pic
ture by the German artist Grnef, which was
lately exhibited in Uerlin, nnd in which Fer
ilinande is the prominent tigurc."

From the Tiichmond Kxiiminer, Jlareb 7.
In the caily jiart of tho war the Southern
Confederacy was much diverted with the
Yankee fright nt "ni.e-kcil" batteries, blt'.e,
thinking the day would soon come for them
to turn the tables on us and join in 11 general
gtiil'aw over our panic at gun boat i. During
the summer of UOJ the iiowsp-.ipers (believ
ed by the immense Conrad) pleaded farm sl
ly for the fortification of coasts, harbors
nnd livers, and endeavored to prepare the
public mind for tho disasters which would
inevitably ensue as soon as the gun-boats
begun to swim in our waters. Hut Mr.
Davis sneered at navies, placed his reliance
in the somnolent Mallory, and expended his
energies in the creation, on nn average, of
two brigadiers to each private.
True to tho prediction of tho newspapers
ckciished by the noble Conrad, the gur.-
1 boats tamo. They knocked down thu nul l
banks ut llatteras and n'.armi d the good
people, of the Old North State beyond im a
s'.u t. Tlieir next essay was upon Fort Hi nry
a little pen, which Mr. llenjauiiit supposed
to be placed, as near as he oould guess, nt
the conlbtencc of the .Nile and the Ganges.
1 After that, the gnu-boat panic bei.ed the
w hole country, and it became a si riouso,c.i -tion
ut the Mivy Department win Ihc-r liberty
and tho Southern Confederacy should exist
in the presence of a cannon lloiiting 011 a
piece of wood in the water.

spoke as follows :
Before performing the duty enjoined by
tho Constitution, permit l.io'to 1 'nder my
grateful acknowledgments for the uniform
kindness and co-operation received at your
hands, in discharging the duties to which
you assigned me. If nuHit has occurred,
in word or deed, to wound the feelings of
any, attribute it to errors of the head rather
than intentions of the heart, nnd let it bn
forgotten in tho assurance that I thall recall
our past intercourse only wilh pride and
pleasure. AVe met, as legislators of tho
llepublic, on the threshhold of its most
important era. lis sunshine of almost half
a century was for the first time darkened
with clouds. Grim-visaced war stalked
through the land, which it ha6 since drench
