144. battle anthem. by John Neal. Up, Christian warrior, up! I hear The trumpet of the North Sounding the charge! Fathers and sons, to horse! Fling the old standard forth, Blazing and large! And now I hear the heavy tramp Of nations on the march, Silent as death! A slowly-gathering host, Like clouds o'er yonder arch, Holding their breath! Our great blue sky is overcast; And stars are dropping out, Through smoke and flame I Hail-stones and coals of fire I Now comes the battle-shout I Jehovah's name! And now the rebel pomp! To prayer I Look to your stirrups, men I Yonder rides death! Now with a whirlwind-sweep.! Empty their saddles when Hot comes their breath! As through the midnight forest tears With trumpeting and fire A thunder-blast; So, Reapers, tear your way Through yonder camp, until you hear, “It is enough! Put up thy sword I Oh, Angel of the Lord! My wrath is past!” --Portland (Ale.) Transcri

Stark, Poor, Patterson, Reed, and others, and were joined in their flight towards New Brunswick by the 40th, who had not taken part in the action. A British regiment in the strong stone-built Nassau Hall, of the College of New Jersey, was cannonaded, and soon surrendered. In this short but sharp battle the British lost, in killed, wounded, and prisoners, about 430 men. The American loss was about 100, including Colonels Haslet and Potter, Major Morris, and Captains Shippen, Fleming, and Neal. Mercer died nine days after the battle. When Cornwallis arrived at Princeton, Washington and his little army and prisoners were tar on their way towards the Millstone River, in hot pursuit of the 40th and 55th regiments. Washington relinquished the chase because of the great fatigue of his soldiers; and moving on to Morristown (q. v.), in east Jersey, there established the winter-quarters of the army. He was universally applauded. It is said that Frederick the Great, of Prussia, declared

onal traits. That woman of genius, Mrs. Sarah Helen Whitman of Providence,--best known to the world as having been the betrothed of Edgar Poe, -wrote once, in the Providence journal, a description of a scene where the brilliant and audacious John Neal gave a parlor lecture on Phrenology, then at its high-tide of prominence; and illustrated it by Margaret Fuller's head. The occasion is thus described:-- Among the topics of the evening, phrenology was introduced, and Mr. Neal expressed aMr. Neal expressed a wish to give what might be termed a topical illustration of his favorite theory. Miss Fuller slowly uncoiled the.heavy folds of her light brown hair and submitted her haughty head to his sentient fingers. The masterly analysis which he made of her character, its complexities and contradictions, its heights and its depths, its nobilities and its frailties, was strangely lucid and impressive, and helped one who knew her well to a more tender and sympathetic appreciation of her character and car

while the Americans, sensitive as well as vainglorious or patriotic, on their part had not been idle, whether in the magazines or in books. Niles' weekly Register, and The North American review, with Edward Everett as editor, hurried to the defence, and Timothy Dwight, Irving, Fenimore Cooper, and Paulding were among those who, with or without finesse, parried the foreign thrusts. Robert Walsh wrote An appeal from the judgments of great Britain respecting the United States (18 9), while John Neal of Portland carried the fight into the enemy's camp by contributing to Blackwood's magazine from 1823 until 1826. After Dwight's death his Travels in New England and New York were published, four substantial volumes, representing vacation journeys which he had taken for reasons of health from 1796 on. They are full of exact information on every conceivable subject — on the prevailing winds, on the excellencies of the colonists of New England, their enterprise and industry, their love of s
