fall--
By Plymouth's rock--and Bunker's mound--
By Griswold's stained and shattered wall--
By Warren's ghost--by Langdon's shade--
By all the memories of our dead!

By their enlarging souls, which burst
The bands and fetters round them set--
By the free Pilgrim spirit nursed
Within our inmost bosoms, yet,--
By all above--around--below--
Be ours the indignant answer--no!

No--guided by our country's laws,
For truth, and right, and suffering man,
Be ours to strive in Freedom's cause,
As Christians may--as freemen can!
Still pouring on unwilling ears
That truth oppression only fears.

TO THOSE I LOVE.

Words by Miss E.M. Chandler. Music from an old air by G.W.C.

[Music]

Oh, turn ye not displeased away, though I should sometimes seem
Too much to press upon your ear, an oft repeated theme;
The story of the negro's wrongs is heavy at my heart,
And can I choose but wish from you a sympathizing part?

I turn to you to share my joy,--to soothe me in my grief--
In wayward sadness from your smiles, I seek a sweet relief:
And shall I keep this burning wish to see the slave set free,
Locked darkly in my secret heart, unshared and silently?

If I had been a friendless thing--if I had never known,
How swell the fountains of the heart beneath affection's tone,
I might have, careless, seen the leaf torn rudely from its stem,
But clinging as I do to you, can I but feel for them?

I could not brook to list the sad sweet music of a bird,
Though it were sweeter melody than ever ear hath heard,
If cruel hands had quenched its light, that in the plaintive song,
It might the breathing memory of other days prolong.

And can I give my lip to taste the life-bought luxuries, wrung
From those on whom a darker night of anguish has been flung--
Or silently and selfishly enjoy my better lot,
While those whom God hath bade me love, are wretched and forgot?

Oh no!--so blame me not, sweet friends, though I should sometimes seem
Too much to press upon your ear an oft repeated theme;
The story of the negro's wrongs hath won me from my rest,--
And I must strive to wake for him an interest in your breast!

WE'RE COMING! WE'RE COMING!

Air, "Kinloch of Kinloch."

[Music]

We're coming, we're coming, the fearless and free,
Like the winds of the desert, the waves of the sea!
True sons of brave sires who battled of yore,
When England's proud lion ran wild on our shore!
We're coming, we're coming, from mou
