ODE FOR THE FOURTH OF JULY
Come ! a health to oar sires who so nobly defended
The soil where their ashes in peaceful ness He;
And ne'er mav their memories, till time shall be
ended, .
Be lost by their sons on the Fourth of July.
Not for self were we born; like our fathers for others.
For our homes and our country, to live or to die,
In peace, to unite, like a band of true brothers, ,
In war, to hold fast by the Fourth of July.
Forever like them, let harmony bind us.
And, rulers! act wise lest you sever the tie,
And traitors succeed, and our enemies find us,
To rob us of miith on the Fourth of July.
Should foes then invade ns, like lads of true metle,
If Usios be ours, swift to battle we.ll hie,
Like a whirlwind the storm of our vengeance shall
settle,
And we'll 'trample their graves on the Fourth of
July.
For Columbia, my friends, till the end of time's
story
May God and our arms still protection supply,
Let actions, not words, be tne test oi our giory,
And loud be our mirth on the Fourth of July.
Then a health to our sires who so nobly defended
The soil where their ashes in peacef ulnessjlie.
And ne'er may their memories, till time shall be
ended,
Be lost by their sons on the Four h ef July.
OUR FATHEES.
No nation, can dwell with more just satis
faction upon its annals, than the American
people. The emigrants Mho settled the coun
try, were illustrious men ; distinguished for
their piety, wisdom, energy, and fortitude.
Not less illustrious were their descendants,
who served as the guides and counsellors of
the colonies, or who fought their battles dur
ing the revolutionary struggle. No one who
admits the intervention of a special provi
dence in the affairs of nations, can hesitate to
believe, that the statesmen and heroes of the
revolution were raised by the God of Heav
en, for the important and definite purpose of
achieving the independence of America of
rescuing a people, whose ancestors had been
eminently devoted to the duties of piety, from
the thraldom under which they had groaned
for years and of presenting to the monarchi
cal governments in the eastern hemisphere,
the example of a government, founded on civil
and religious liberty.
For the accomplishment of such a purpose,
the statesmen and heroes of the ' Revolution
were eminently fitted. They were endowed
with minds of distinguished power, and ex
hibited an example of political sagacity, and
ofiigh military prowess, which commanded
the admiration of statesmen and heroes,
throughout the world. ThtBr patriotism was
of a pure and exalted character ; their zeal
was commensurate with the noble objects
which they had in view ; and amid the toils,
and privations, and sufferings, which they
were called to endure, they exhibited a pa
tience and fortitude, rarely equalled in the
history of the world.
Of the revolutionary patriots, none present
themselves with more interest to the rising
generation, than those who composed the con
gress of 1776 ; and upon whom devolved the
important political duty of severing the ties,
which bound the colonies to the mother coun
try. The obligations to cherish their memory,
and to follow their example will be felt ; nor
can we fall to realize the debt of gratitude we
owe in common, to that benignant providence,
who fitted these men ior the. important work
which was assigned them.
They were fifty-six in number; and the
average length of their lives was about sixty
five years. Four of the number attained to
the age of ninety years, and upwards; four
teen exceeded eighty years ; and twenty-three,
or one in two and a half, reached three score
years and ten. The longevity of the New
England delegation, was still more remarkable.
Their number was fourteen, the average of
whose lives were seventy-fire years. Who
will affirm that the unusual age to which the
signers, as a body, attained, was not a reward
bestowed upon them, for their fidelity to their
country, and the trust which they in general
reposed in the overruling providence of God ?
Who can doubt the kindness of that Provi
dence to the American people, in thus pro
longing the lives of these men, till the princi
plc3 for which they had contended, through a
long series of years, had been acknowledged,
and a government had been founded upon
them?
Of this venerable body, not a single one
survives. They aro no more, as in 1770, bold
and fearless advocates of independence. They
are dead. But how little is there of the great
and good which can die. To their country
they yet live, and live for ever. They live in
all that perpetuates thcremembranc of men
on earth ; in the recorded proofs of their own
great actions, in the offspring of their intellect,
in the deep engraved lines of public gratitude,
and in the respect and homage of mankind.
They live in their example ; and they live,
emphatically, and will live, in the influence
which their lives and efforts, their principles
and opinions, now exercise, and will continue
to exercise, on the affairs of men, not only in
ur own country, but throughout the civilized
world.
It remains to us to cherish their memory,
and emulate their virtues, by perpetuating
and extending the blessings which they have
bequeathed. Slong as we preserve our coun
try, their fame cannot die, for it is reflected
from the surface of every thing that is beauti
ful and valuable in our land. We cannot re
cur too often, nor dwell too long, upon the
lives and characters of such men ; for our own
will take something of their form and impres
sion from thoso on which they rest. If we
inhale the moral atmosphere in which they
moved, we mast feel it purifying and invigo
rating influence. If we raise our thoughts to
their elevation, our minds will be expanded
and ennobled, in beholding the immeasurable
distance beneath and around us. Can we
breathe the pure mountain air, and not be re
freshed ; can we walk abroad amidst the beau
tiful and the grand works of creation, and feel
no kindling of devotion 1
OUB, REVOLUTIONARY SIRES.
Alexander Hamilton was hardly of age when
he began to play his part in the awful drama
of the Revolution, being only 20 w hen he was
taken into the family of the Commander-in-Chief,
with the rank of lieut. colonel; Benja
mine Franklin was 59 before he began to be
heard of ; Samuel Adams 41; James Otis 38;
John Adams 35; Josiah Qttincy 40; John Han
cock 38; and Thomas Jefferson 32, before they
were greatly distinguished. And so with all
actors of that age. They were full grown men
workmen ripened with toil and strengthen
ed by long habits of endurance and self-dependence.
Washington was a surveyor and
in after life a farmer. ("Expressive silence
muse his praise!") Knox was a book binder
and stationer. Morgan (he of the Cow-pens.)
was a drover, Tarlton got from him a lecture
on that subject. Green was a blacksmith and
withal a Quaker, albeit through all his south
ern campaigns, and particularly at the Eutaw
Springs, he put oft the outward man. Arnold
(I ask pardon for naming him in such com
pany) was a grocer and provision store keep
er in New Haven, where his sign is still to be
seen the same that decorated his shop door
before the revolution. Gates, who opened
Burgoyne's eyes. to the fact that he could not
"march through tho United states wun owu
men," was a "regular built soldier," but after
the revolution a farmer. Warren, the martyr
of Bunker Hill, was a physician, and hesitated
not to ebhibit to Lis countrymen a splendid
example of the manner in which American
physicians should practice when called on by
their country. Marion, the "Old Fox" of the
South was a cow boy. Sumpter, the "fighting
cock" of South Carolina, was a shepard's boy.
Let it be forever remembered that the men of
the Revolution were working men, those of
New England especially: Green, (as we have
stated) was a blacksmith; Franklin a printer;
Roger Sherman a shoemaker, and Putnam,
Stark and Allen were farmers; not a man of
them all above his business or ashamed of his
calling.
"They were tinkers, and tailors, and coblcrs. what
then
AVere they not patriots ? AVere they not men"?"'
REVOLUTIONARY BATTLES.
The following is thought to be a complete
list of the battles fought during the war of the
Revolution, with the exception of a few in
the Southern States:
Battle ot Concord, April 18, 1775; battle of
Bunker Hill, June 17, 1775; battle of Old
Hampton, Va., where w'e took five decKed
vessels, sometime in November, 1775; battle
of Great Bridge, near Norfolk, Va., Decem
ber 18, 1775; battle of Long Island, August
27, 1776; battle of Port Washington, Novem
ber 17, 1776; battle of Fort Lee, November 10,
1776; battle of Trenton, where one thousand
Hessians were captured, December 16, 1770;
battle of Princeton, Januarj' 2, 1777; battle of
Bennington, August 10, 1777; battle of Bran
dywine, September 11, 1777; battle of Ger-
mantown, October, 4, 1777; Burgoyne's Army
taken near Saratoga, October 17, 1777; battle
of the Red Banks, October 22, 1777; battle of
Monmouth, June 28, 1778 battle of Stony
Point, July 16,1770; bcttle of Camden, August

tober 7, 1781; Cornwallis and his army taken,
October 10, 1781.

Woodex Nutmegs Outdone. There is a
Parisian dandy, who, we think, rather outdoes
Connecticut:
"C had at his residence a complete
costume groom. When offering an attention
to one of the fair sex, he used to say, "Permit
me to send you aboquetby my black servant."
"He then repaired to his garret, took out
his blacking bottle, polished his face and
hands, and knocked at the lady's door."
'SHere," he said, "are some flowers sent by
my master to madame."
He had spent the last five francs in the pur
chase. Madame was so delighted with the
present that she presented a Imiis to the bear
er. That is a clear pocketing of three dollars
and a lady's favor into the bargain.
A modest young gentleman, at a dinner
party, put the following conundrum.
" Why are most peoplo who eat turkies, like.
babies ? No reply. The modest man blushed,
and would have backed out but finally gave the
reason : " because they are fond of the breast."
Two middle-aged ladies fainted, the remains
of the young man were carried out by the
coroner, and three married ladies clapped their
handkerchiefs to their mouths in convulsions
tooth-ache of cotirso.
K7"An unfortunate victim of unrequited
love sings in this lamentable strain : I'll throw
myself into the deep briny ocean, where mud
eels and cat-fish on my body shall riot, and
flounders and flat-fish select me for diet;
there soundly I'll slumber, beneath the rough
billow, and crabs, without number, shall crawl
o'er my pillow. But my spirit shall wander
through gay coral bowers, and frisk with the
mermaids it shall, by the powers !
Ostentatious Display of Wealth. Last
Tuesday a carriage, said to belong to a return
ed Californian, was seen in Broadway, New
York, having on its panels a crest, &c, and
otherwise decorated with various devices, all
of' solid California gold. The harness, also,
was mounted with gold, elaborately cut and
polished.
C7Two Irishmen in crossing afield, came
in contact with a jackass, which was making
"daylight hideous" with his unearthly bray
ing. Jemmy stood a moment in astonishment,
then turning to Pat, who was also enraptured
with the song, be remarked: "It's a fine ear the
bird has got for music; but he's got a wonder
ful cowld."
