While one of the Massachusetts regiments was in New York on its way to Washington, a gentleman residing there met one of its members on the street. Is there any thing I can do for you, sir? said the New Yorker, his heart warming toward the representative of the brave Massachusetts militia who had so promptly answered the call of their country. The soldier hesitated a moment, and finally raising one of his feet exhibited a boot with a hole in the toe, and generally worse for wear. How came you here with such boots as that, my friend? asked the patriotic citizen. When the order came for me to join my company, sir, replied the soldier, I was ploughing in the same field at Concord where my grandfather was ploughing when the British fired on the Massachusetts men at Lexington. He did not wait a moment; and I did not, sir. It is unnecessary to add that the soldier was immediately supplied with an excellent pair of boots.--Evening Post.

It appears from a Boston letter in the New York World, that that Regiment was all from Middlesex County, which embraces the battle-fields of Lexington, Concord, and Bunker Hill. One or two of the companies are entirely composed of the lineal descendants of the patriots who were in the Concord fight. The gallant Sixth was first sent forward because it first reported itself at Headquarters with fullestConcord fight. The gallant Sixth was first sent forward because it first reported itself at Headquarters with fullest ranks. Col. Jones received his orders at Lowell on Monday night at 11 o'clock, in the midst of a driving northeast storm. He mounted his horse, and rode all night through the scattered towns in which his companies were. Every company was in Boston with full ranks next Tuesday noon, and, if the equipments furnished by the State had been ready, the Regiment would have left that afternoon for Washington, instead of twenty-four hours later, which was done.

The first gun in the present conflict was fired at Fort Sumter on Henry Clay's birthday. The fort surrendered on Thomas Jefferson's birthday. The contest began in the streets of Baltimore on the anniversary of the battle of Lexington and Concord.--Charleston Mercury, May 6.
ing columns, as their only hope of salvation from a bondage worse than death, an oppression more terrible than Siberian convict rule. As soon as these noble men shall dare to speak, your hands will be strengthened, and your hearts cheered. Go on, then, ye heralds of civilization, establishing in your march the church, the school-house, the Bible, and the Constitution, as the only sure foundations of human liberty. In your veins flow the blood which ensanguined the fields of Lexington and Concord, and rendered immortal the heights of Bunker Hill, and which has rebaptized the cause of human liberty in the streets of Baltimore. With you, we can safely trust this glorious flag, assured that it will be borne to higher places of honor, and will never cease its triumphant march until every secession symbol shall have been trampled in the dust, and every traitorous enemy shall have been hung in mid-heaven, or be forever exiled from a land which he has cursed.

Pro Patria: inscribed to the Second New Hampshire Regiment. by Thomas Bailey Aldrich. I. The grand old earth shakes at the tread of the Norsemen, Who meet, as of old, in defence of the true; All hail to the stars that are set in their banner! All hail to the red, and the white, and the blue! As each column wheels by, Hear their hearts' battle-cry,-- It was Warren's,--'Tis sweet for our country to die! II. Lancaster and Coos, Laconia and Concord, Old Portsmouth and Keene, send their stalwart young men; They come from the plough, and the loom, and the anvil, From the marge of the sea, from the hill-top and glen. As each column wheels by, Hear their hearts' battle-cry,-- It was Warren's,--'Tis sweet for our country to die! III. The prayers of fair women, like legions of angels, Watch over our soldiers by day and by night; And the King of all Glory, the Chief of all Armies, Shall love them and lead them who dare to be right! As each column wheels by, Hear their hearts' battle-cry,-- It
