While the Revolutionary Fathers were with us, and we NATIONAL SYMrTOMS. I heard from them the story of the struggles, trials and sacrifices endured to establish our independence, the fire of our patriotism was fanned, and our love of liberty was strong. But with their departure, and our unpar- alleled national growth and wealth, and great facilities for personal advancement and profit, many had almost forgotten the cost and value of their civil privileges, and scarcely dreamed that they could e...ver be seriously endano;ered. Tiie Government was too much left to itself, or rather to the management of designing and am- bitious politicians. One point was yielded here and another there, rather than injure trade or party interests. But now all this is changed. When at length Treason struck down the Flag, the old slumbering spirit of patriotism inherited from our fathers was roused, and the people of the Free States, and at length many of the Border, rose in their majesty to defend the Constitution and the country.
