with earnest zeal-- With loyal hearts and lifted hands, To firmly stand — come woe or weal. Oh! never can we see that Flag Which our forefathers proudly bore, Through years of dark and deadly strife Through fields red with their brave heart's gore, Torn from its place, and ‘neath the feet Of traitors vile, trailed in the earth, Disgraced, abused, by those who've lived Beneath its folds from earliest birth. Next to our God, our country's cause Demands our aid — our earnest care-- In her defence we'll ever stand; In all her sorrows we will share. Then, when the storms of war are o'er-- When Peace resumes her gentle sway, We'll join to raise our voices high To Him who led us on our way. O God of Nations! hear our prayer For our brave soldiers in this fight; Protect them in each fearful hour Defend them with thy arm of might, We look to thee, and humbly bow, Chastened, subdued, we meekly cry, “Thy will, O, God! not ours, be done!” Oh! hear us, from thy throne on high.

n. She was slightly formed, graceful, with a bright, happy face, and most pleasing manners. She had a fair complexion, dark eyes and hair, teeth like rows of pearls, and in fact might be called beautiful. Her voice, though not of great compass and variety, was full, rich, deep, and well modulated. All admit that the Hutchinson family have acted well their part in the cause of reform, and a second generation is singing still. When Abby retired from the stage her mantle fell on her niece Viola, who, having just married, will probably share the fate of her aunt, being according to Blackstone, wholly absorbed in another, and we shall hear from her no more. The first national convention was held in Brinley Hall, Worcester, Massachusetts, October 23d, and 24th, 1850.
