SONS of Liberty, aw.We ’

Rise ! of glorious strife partake,
Or sleep the endless sleep of death !
Now arnand r> nr every shore,
Hostile s«piN>lrons are arrayed—
Shall your fields be stained with gore,
Or jour towns in ashes laid !
Shall the !r.vad«r*s threatening brand
Fire your b.mlets, c.tie* .11—
Aod your injured native land *
C«ul on yiu, unheeded c. 111
Shall your wives and daughters dear,
Murdvrrtl. violated he (
8h’'ll the helpless witl w’s tear
Fall a heavy curse on ye I
Shall the foe firm foot ng take.
On fair freedom’s toil again ?
No ! each enrd of life shall break,
Ere we wear the ty rant’s oh .in \
Ere our towns in (lame shall rise,
While the lawless hosts assart—
Ere our wives* and virgins’ sighs
, Shall distract the tainted gale—
Let us swear our blood to shed.
Till between an ocean roll.
Or the bodies nt tlnr iIcmI,
Foi-ib f or their defeueoa wall t
Where, O Got!o*‘ Vengeance t where
H si hat patriot spin' gone.
Which through scenes of daik despair,
Led our sites to victory on l
Feel we now a rushing f od,
Thrilling through oor every vela 1
If is then our lather** Mood,
And that spirit lives again!
Y£s * if. lives; sort breathes and burnt.
In the brmoms of the brave j

There are heroes yet to save.

ed by law, in cases of thi kind, state whe«
ther the person intending to remove, has
performed a tour of duty, nr not ; in what
number he has been enrolled, Jc if the draft
has progressed in hh company, beyond it,
that fact will be stated.
Wherever the above rulfe has been viola
