Rebellion Record: a Diary of American Events: Poetry and Incidents., Volume 2. (ed. Frank Moore), Affairs at ManassasBaltimore wanted for winter quarters. (search)
Affairs at Manassas — Baltimore wanted for winter quarters. Se de Kay, writing to the Louisville Courier from Camp Bartow, near Manassas, under date of August 23, says:-- A week of chill rain storms has served to remind us not only of the personal discomforts of camp life, but of the rapid departure of summer, and the near approach of the season of mist and mellow fruitfulness. The last roses are indeed blooming, though it was but the other day that I plucked one on the battle-field, wh shall result in freeing nine millions of people, and reestablishing the ark of liberty, so long desecrated by the impious Northmen. That there will be a forward movement soon, we have every reason to believe, and no reader of the Courier need be astonished while sipping his morning coffee, if he sees the announcement of our occupation of Maryland, and the hemming in of the Federal Capital. We must have winter quarters, and Baltimore would furnish splendid accommodations for our forces.
comes! With the hum of many voices, And the distant beat of drums. Ere the proclamation's echo Has died along her shore, The Bay State men are ready To march to Baltimore. They come with steady faces, With hearts both warm and stern, Wherein the old patriot fires Have never ceased to burn: And the women said, “God speed you!” “Wene the bosoms That are torn with hope and fear: From the bondsman's Southern cabin, From the Northern freeman's door, The colored man is watching, As we march to Baltimore.

They that founded her were true; But this perjured generation Found other work to do. The blood of Massachusetts Hath dignified the street, Which should else bear down in story But the marks of traitors' feet! And now, oh! lift them gently, And tenderly bear home, Till within the loved old Bay State Her martyred sons have come. Ye Boston men uncover, As the conquerors pass by! Grand and silent is their triumph, Who for liberty can die. “The Country is in dang
It is a curious coincidence that the first regiment of Massachusetts volunteers passed through Baltimore on June 17, as the first regiment of militia passed through on April 19. Had there been any hostile demonstrations on the part of the roughs, the boys would have remembered Bunker Hill. They threw out neither advance nor rear guard, the colonel saying that they should repulse any attack with the whole body. The band played on the march Yankee Doodle. Hail Columbia, and The Star-Spangled Banner. --Boston Advertiser, June 26.
56. the men who fell in Baltimore. by John W. Forney. Our country's call awoke the land From mou, their flag before, For Washington, through Baltimore. Our men from Berks and Schuylkill came-- Le, their flag before, For Washington, through Baltimore. Next came the Massachusetts men, Gathered fir flag before, New England's braves through Baltimore. But when they showed their martial pride, Awith travel sore, While on their way through Baltimore. From every stifling den and street, They rue flag that floated o'er Their countrymen in Baltimore. And the great song their son had penned, Tom Massachusetts shore To Washington, through Baltimore. And when, with wildest grief, at last, They their shoulders bore To Washington, through Baltimore. Yet, while New England mourns her dead, The fathers gone before, They fell for Right at Baltimore! As over every honored grave, Where sleeps tur deep, enduring, lasting debt To those who left their native shore And died for us in Baltimore.

An interesting incident.--At Boston, a fugitive slave, arrived from Baltimore, (via U. G. R. R.,) was passing through the Doric Hall, at the State House, when he recognized one of the soldiers wounded on the 10th of April at that city, and at once accosted him, inquiring after his health, and asked him if he did not know him. The soldier did not at first remember his face, when the fugitive asked him if he did not remember a colored man bringing him water to drink, and rags to bind up his wes of the case made the interview deeply touching. Without revealing facts which might do more harm than good; we will simply add that the fugitive has a wife and two children, and when the Massachusetts soldiers fell wounded in the streets of Baltimore, the fugitive's wife tore up her clothes to make rags to stanch the flow of blood. These rags she threw out of the window in her master's house, when her husband gathered them up and carried them to the wounded soldier.--Boston Pine and Palm.
ovinces, surly of late, Missouri and Maryland--one has the paw Of my Lyon upon her; and one has the law Called martial, proclaimed through her borders and cities; Both are crushed, a Big Thing, I make bold to say, it is. St. Louis is silent and Baltimore dumb, They hear but the monotone roll of my drum. In the latter vile sea-port I ordered Cadwallader To manacle Freedom, and though the crowd followed her, Locked up in McHenry, she's safe, it is plain, With Merryman, Habeas Corpus, and Kane.

Sharp shooting.--A correspondent of the Boston Traveller gives the following account of a little battle of words in Baltimore:-- Our officers and soldiers did not always bear contumely in silence, though they could not strike down their tormentors, when these were women and children. Sometimes they answered such scoffs with fitting words. Are you a Massachusetts soldier? said a woman, elegantly dressed, and doubtless deemed a lady in Baltimore. I am, madam, was the courteous answBaltimore. I am, madam, was the courteous answer of the officer of our regiment thus addressed. Well, thank God, my husband is in the Southern army, ready to kill such hirelings as you! Do you not miss him, madam? said the officer. Oh yes, I miss him a good deal. Very well, madam, we are going South in a few days, and will try to find him and bring him back here with his companions. You ought to have seen how angry she was. You are from that miserable Boston, I suppose, she said, where there is nothing but mob law, and they burned

We tell you, traitors of the South, With all your chivalry too, That madness whirls your brains about, And you know not what you do! You have made a war, unholy; You'll be sure to rue the day When you meet the Freemen of the North In battle's stern array! You have called us dough-faced cowards; Said you'd meet us, two to one; And you've shown us how a dirty mob Can steal a soldier's gun; But for your dastard cowardice The battle-field shall tell That the blood you shed in Baltimore Was your passport into hell! You have dared us out to meet you, But you'll find our courage true! For, by the Eternal God we swear To crush your rebel crew! We know our cause is holy; We will keep our powder dry; And fight, as did our noble sires, For Freedom-or we'll die! W
