Ash ye why we draw the sword?
Is Freedom belt a passing word?
Or dwells it in the human heart
There to become of life a part?
Creating aspirations high
Teaching patriots how to die?
Ask ye why we brave the stroke?
Why Htmgaria scorns her yoke?
Why Hungaria spurns her chains I
Look around her desert plains—
Her cities buried in the dust
By men who revel in their !us!!
Her peasant homes by fire consumed!
Her daughters to afflictiiin doomed.
Th:s we've borne! it shall not last,
The sword is drawn, the die is cast!
We have sworn with solemn word—
'Tis writ upon each climsuned sword!
Though IZo3sia doomed us to despair' .
NVould ye have us falsely swear?
Hungaria has proclaimed her right,
Nom she dares .the worst in fight!
in 'calms above, w'e place our trust;
Our fathers prey each morn and even',
Au'tria is faithless—Cod is just—
May those prayers ascend to Heaven!
I•ttael was gathered to the Lotd
From a ruthless monareh's sword;
'rims Ilungat - M, tlio' she bleed' •
Fr.tin oppression shall be freed!
Thou,ii streams (-4 . lmsiiie blood are.spilt
In many a deadly haute, field,
It bath btu left its stain of guilt—
It has not taught us yet to yield!
Crime may he in death forgiven,
But venoeanee cries alound to Heaven!
We serve our country—she shall be
The grave of Austrian tyranny.

Uow Lazy Sam won the Race:
A Kentuckian horse drover being in South
Caro!ina with a drove, happened to take it to
the nei7lshorhood of General 11—,whose
character Mr jockeying and manceverim„r in
trade is much more celehrated than his feats
in arms. The Kentuckian having perfect
acquaintance with his character, went to see
him to sell him horses—or to swap—or to run
a race, as the destinies might order and de
crer. .
Ile was ono of our careless. uneoncerned,
nvu and drag-out looking, sort of f el
low ; who would assume just as Much sim
plicity of countenance and address, as cir
cumstances 'night require. He had the ap
pearance ()Cabot , t twenty-two or twentv-th roe
years of age, and usual, was dressed in the
blue mixed jeans to hide dirt, and wore a
drab colored hat for the same reason.
"Gineral," said he, am just' from old
Kalmuck. with some powarful nice horses,
and may be you want some. Daddy told
me if I came on your parts to call on you,
and he reckoned may be you would , buy4
pair of matches, or hold me out in tradin'i :
liar he said you had a power in• moneyoind
understood tradn to a scribe. Here's a let
ter from him," handing one. "And besides .
I've as nice a pair of matches, as you could
shake a stick at; and as tight a nag for a
quarter, Daddy says, as any in the parts ; he
says I must run no races, cause I 'nought
lose; and we want all the money we can
scrape to pay for land. But I reckon he'd
suit you to a fraction case you're a sportin
character, and mought win a powerful chance
of money on him. •
hil; he was thus introdueing• himself
and tellhez, his business,'t he General opened
the 1 , •!t•t• which read as I,,Nows;:
Uenerni—rl t note this opportunity, to
wright to you by my Jub, who is taken the
first drove he ever driv, and 1 want:you to
roll logs a leetle for him, if so he suits you.
Job's spry enough at home, but hasn't cut
his eye teeth, and if yOu'll lend him a hand,
I'll due as tntich for any of your li.)ys if
you've got any, whensoever they come hero
tradin or any thing else. So no more at
Present but remain your of ectionate friend
till death. PETERTOMPKINS. '
The hero of our hone races, cotton .bags,
and sugar hogiheads, thought lie perceived
a neat speculation
_and acted accordingly.—
Mr. Joh Tompkins was received with Much
courtesy ; his man and boy entertained - with
the .best in the larder; while his five-and.;
twenty horses were not neglected. Itis true
the General had not the slightest recollec
tion of his friend and. correspondent Peter
Tompkins..He might haie once known him',
or 'net--,it was Ihesnme - thing. Herecivas
Job, a raw Kentecky stripling, with twl.nty
fire, Mimes, as easily squezed as a ripe lent.,
on; It' wair4iet'in his nature to forbear.
In the ineVitime, M r.lcib Tompkins made
Mtite.free and easy; and swaggered.
ihmitAhe':costly furnished apartment as if
he ha& been i ,in a log cabin. , He viewed the
plate.on the sideboard with much ap
parent' :astonishment ; and a pair of silver
sntiffers, espcaially, excited his curiosity.

- "Lord; Ginemflar them thar candle,snuf
furs made out, of the pure stuff? Ltiever
see'd any afore but ir'no nes and mamy uses
her sheers. And all them ar things on that
ar big chist (the sideboard) is the real span
ish castins ! I heard talk of this afore, but
never seed, it. Now if Iwas to tell this' in,
our settlement, may be they wouldn't hop
straddle of me, and ride right over the rough
stood, for a liar. But they soy you're a
powerful sight the richest Man in the South
States, aint you ?
To all which the General returned suita
blo answers ; and Mr. Job and hewere hand
in glove, for the.time being. Each man res
olutely bent to make .a successful lodgment
in his neighbor's pocket with the view of
taking it out—a Herculean task to be sure
—when Job heard in the next room the sound
of music. Several Kentucky reels were
played, anon, the sweet breathings of a mel
odious voice sung "Sweet—sweet home. •
"May Ibe d—d ," said Job, "if that dont
beat Bob Walker, and he's a patch above
Common. But that aint none of your music
boxes, I know ;it can't he. Is it ?"
"My daughter is playing on the piano,"
said the General, "we will walk in the room
and hear her." fle're were blandishments to
strike Joh dumb, and enhance all his senses.
“The man who has no music in his soul,
And is not moved with concord of sweet sounds
1,, fit for treasons, stratagems, and spoils."
Job thought a man might love music and
spoils also. He felt a liking for both.—
Therefore he applauded the music in his own
svnv most rapturously.
Said Job, "May I never pull anothe trig
ger, if she's not a priming above anything!.
heard talk about, Why, she's chattered !
She's a rrtal ono, I a.sSii re you. , it's
enoturh to make a fellow swim that can't;
and if it wasn't for all these : fine kiverlids
over the track, (the carpet) and I had a part—
ner to my mind, I'd go my drove to nothing
or less, I can shake the ticks off - any boy you
can produce."
The General now thought the Kentuckian
ripe enough. To aid in which he had been
plied with choice liquors as he denominated
the Brandy and Madeira.
The horses were brought out and examin
ed and praised, and cheapened, and faults
ound with all.
Tla;y could agree upon nothing.
"Well, where is your quarter horse ?"ask
cd the General. Uh ho ! I sort o' tho't
what you were afte4" answered Joh, , 'for
you hardly looked at them thar matches,
and these fine geldings," So you must he
after the r mrtering,Jiin, fetch up Lazy Sam,
will you ? Now Gineral' I'll tell you, honor
bright, he's never been liclet in a quarter
spurt, but once ; by Joe Miller's sorrel mare
which runs like a streak of lightning.—
She•s a ra•al screamer. Daddy swain fur
him lint fall, after she tanned him out.
If I know'd her I'd give you • ber marks, so
as you mightn't be melt in. For I heard
Joe was bringing her to the South to win
his expences. But here's the horse any how
and I assure you he's not slow."
Now be it-remembered' that honest Job
was not ignorant, that General —was at
that - titne the owner of this indentical maw,
nntl for reasons best known to himself he
wished to make a race between her and the
Lazy" Sant,
:The General examined Lazy Sam with the
eye of a Jockey.
"Fish," said he very cohtemptimusly,
"why this thing cannot rim ; why it's dab-
Sided as a sheep and as heavy shouldered
as a hog and catjuunined besides : I would
not giVe niuteAr.three of it. Why did
you not brinM4Akkipf mules . to market ?

lour horses , duadt!suit me. Pray what do
you ask for llllS'thing which you call a run
ning nag? W.rimy do to.plough a season or
two. Does it work ?"
Unlike the Job ofuncient days, Job Tomp
kins suflbred- his anger to rise and master
him. At least he made the General think.
To use his own words he consorted. Elc
screamed out:
"hello ! ;Mister, I wonder you're so mighty
wise considerin you know so little. Why.
you make me feel all over in spots, to listen
at you. I reckon may be you've got a quar
tering yourself: aint you ?"
"I have a plough nag here,"said the Gen
eral very coolly; "that lam sure.can run
away from that,, thing of yours." .
riling!" balloed Job, "why, you malce
ma feel a sort of wolfy, and I've a good mind
to go my whole lot again any thing you can
parade in the whole South,'
"I would not spoil a good mind then„'
quoth the General. "But I:suppose you are
afraid-to run, as your father has fordid it."
"I don't.care a solitary flint what daddy
says when my Irish is up," exclaimed Job
indignantly. "Bring out your nab and let's
see it."
The General gave the order ; and as Job
expected, the sorrel mare, (once Joe Miller's)

While Job examined, his adversary en
deavored all he could' to fret him by disprais
ing his horse ; and Job appeared worked to
fever bent.
To cut short the story, the drove was
staked against twenty-five hundred dollars

"D—n your Joe Miller and his nag also,"
replied the Generel, "the _mare is mine' I
tell you,"
This appeared satisfactory:

tion of Job's running horse—done to fret him.
It was by no means a correct one. Lazy
Sam was a well made pony of the Printer
stock, but was of a mild, sleepy, sluggish
disposition ; until his metal was roused:—
Ile generally went with his eye half shut
and his head dropping at an angle forty-five
degrees. When the General viewed him
he was in this condition. •
The horses were in the General's stable,
and the cheek lbr two thousand dollars was
in the hands of a gentleman present. The
General had no doubt keeping all Joe's i pne
horses and sending him home on his ten toes.
Lazy Sam, was led along by Job's boy as
sleepy as usual The preliminarfes wore ad
justed, and riders mounted. As Job rhr,ev
Jim on Lazy Sam,—he sprang all t;onr T
the ground; and his dull, sleepy lc 1,, •v
changed into a wild, almost ditviiish r, --

The General lost his mahogany color and
looked pale ; but he said nothing.
Lazy Sam won the race by thirty feet.
Job Was suddenly-cool as a cucumber.—
And as he put the twenty-five hundred.dol- .
lar check in his easy. greasy pocket book,
which ho did very deliberately, he looked
round cunningly.
"I sort o' think that's first rate and a half,"
said Job, "and aleetle past common.- Why
Gin'ral,'Sam's laid you as cold as a wedge."
Fle turned round suddenly to his rider,—
"Jim," said he, "here's five dollars ; why it
all goes in a man's life time, but the Gine
ral looks as if he'd been squeezed through the
epd of nothing or lees."

The growth of American cnics is unpar
alleled in the history of the world. Alreadt
half a million are embraced within the sub
urbs of New York, and more than half that
number with'in those of Philadelphia. New
Orleans contains about one hundred and fif- •
ty, Boston one hundred and thirty, and Bal—
timore one hundred and five thousand in-•
habitants. The second child•born in Cin
cinnatti, it is said, is still liting, and 4r4\,
not reached the tniddli; age of life, whiltAte
city has a population of a-htindred thbusanil..
The population of St. Lonis was ♦:bout - .
1.600 in 1810, 16,000 in 18.0; 40,000 in;
18,45; and is probably now not less than.
60,000. Buffalo contained in 1825 2,412 ;'
in 18-16. 29,773 ; and now contains about•
45,0(10. En 1829, the population of Lowell
was 3,52, it is now more than 30,000. •
Chicago, a
,place scarcely known on the.lat

of 18,000; and Milwaukie, of still more re-•
cent origin, is rivaling it in its growth.and.
population.
