an martial strains! To that war-cry our freemen railied And clamored to meet the foc. And drive the invaders from their sacred home, Or nobly in death lie low. Scott I will thy blood not tingle And burn like the lava's flood. When leagued with the treacherous usurper you come To deluge your country in blood? Will not the sword she gave you Gleam with ill-omened fires. When you lead your invading thousands To the homes and the graves of your alres! The degger of Macbeth was nothing To what that sword shall be; Sleeping or waking, its phantom shall still Forever be present to thee. And when with assassins and traitors, Who disgrace their country's name. Thon shall sneak to they grave with terror and fear, It will prove a sword of fiame: A sword, whose lurid lishining Shall rival the place of the lost; Then shrieking, despairing, too late thou'll find.

What that treacherous blade hath cost. Its point shall force thee an entrance, Even thro' the gates of hell, And gain thee a full and free admission To the traitors then hast loved so well. Arneld will meet thee all smirking, But only to hide the tear; He known his pre-eminence now is gone, For a greater than Arnold is here. Then the Prince of Darkness shall say, "Do come up higher, my son; "Since the fall of man no darker deed "Than thine hath ever been done.

"Give up that Sword." By request, we publish the following, which originally appeared in the Richmond Whig: I hear that a deputation of the ladies of Virginia intend waiting on General Sco't and demanding the sword he received from his native State. As I cannot go in person, I send you the following lines to the old gentleman, hoping they may act as a persuader to "Fuss and Feathers " to give up the sword. If you think them worthy of publication, insert them in the Weekly Whig, as I take that paper. A Virginia Mother. Give up that sword, old trailor. To the State of the gallant and free; Who blushes with shame to know she hath found The first base trailor in thee. Freedom or death was the cry First heard on thy native pisins, As it came from Henry's imprisoned lips More thrilling than martial strains! To that war-cry our freemen railied And clamored to meet the foc. And drive the invaders from their sacred home, Or nobly in death lie low. S
provide the sinews of war. The cotton, rice, wheat, corn, sugar and tobacco of the South, must be the substantial basis upon which our Government credit shall be sustained, and our defence made sure. The war is upon us. The enemy is already upon the soil of the South. They have taken armed possession of Maryland, and they have invaded Virginia. While I write, there are thousands of abolition troops in Alexandria, and thousands more upon James river, near Fortress Monroe. And still thousands more will come to profane with their nuhallowed feet the land which gave birth to Washington, Madison, Monroe and Jefferson. The North will soon have seventy-five thousand armed men in the field with the avowed purpose of subjugating the South. They have a vast amount of capital; they have a regular army and navy; they have a supply of the best arms; they have a large volunteer force composed chiefly of abolitionists, foreigners, paupers, laborers out of employment, adventurers, thieves,

y. We may be soon called to do it. If so, we shall be found fighting the fee on the border. We intend to fight him if he shows his face to us. And while we are here lending our lives, who among our fellow-citizens at home will refuse to lend a portion of his crop for the defence of the South! If there be one, let us not hear his name — while we are hearing the enemy's guns. But the President and Government of the Confederate States have come to Virginia. The Commander-in-Chief, Jefferson Davis, is in Richmond, to take command in person of our army, and to lead them against our Northern foes. Congress will assemble in that city. Our Government and our army will be located in Virginia, and this State will be the battle ground between the North and the South. Here the battle will be fought which must decide the issue between us. The forces on both sides are rapidly increasing.

Our Government must have money to clothe, feed and arm her soldiery. A wise plan has been enacted to obtain it. We call upon our fellow-citizens and friends to subscribe liberally of their next crop, to sustain the credit of our Government and afford the means for moving our army most promptly to victory. If "Cotton is King," let cotton come to the breach. If Georgia has the honor of having offered to the Government the largest number of volunteers of any of the original seven States, and of having the largest number now in the fleld — let the Empire State loan her crops as well as her sons to the Government.

Let cotton conquer peace. Very respectfully, yours, R. A. Smith.
