— The following Song, from the last number of The New Monthly Magazine, is one of the finest efforts of the great Poet to whom we are indebted lor it :r— ■ • SONG OF THE GREEKS, BY T. CAMPBELD. AGAIN to the battle, Achaians Our hearts bid the tyrants elf fiance Our land, the first garden, of Liberty's tree- It lias Been, and shall yet be, the land of the free For the cross of our faith is replanted, The pale dying crescent is daunted, And we iniireli, that tile -fo6t-prli its of Nl*llo*.FT'i slaves, May be waMt'd out in blood from our forefathers' graves. TheirspiritTare hovering o'er us, spirits- are j Ak:d the sword shall to glory restore us. .^Ah wiiat, though no succour advances, r^Nor Christendom's chivalrous laiiees Are stretch'd in our aid ?-Be the combat our own I And we'll perish or conquer mote proudly 'alone For we've sworn, by our Country's assaulters, By the virgins they've dcagg'd from our altars, .By our massacred patriots—our chifdren in chnmv By our Heroes of old, and their blood in our vents, Thattiving,weshai)bevietorious,- i Or that dying, our deaths shat) be glorious. A breath of Submission we breathe not; TThe sword that we've drawn we will sheathe not ,Its scabbard i? left where our martyrs are laid; And the vengeance of ages has wetted its blade. •Earth may hide—waves enguipli-fire coiistiiae, us; But they shall not to slavery doom us If they rule, it shall be o'er our ashes and graves; But we've smote tlieiu already with fire on the waves, And new triumphs on land are before us— To the charge -Heaven's banner is o'er us. This day shall ye blush for its story, Or brighten your lives with its glory. Ot)twotnen—Qi)!say,sha))thevshnekindespa!r, Or embrace us from conquest with wreaths in their hair ? Accursed may his memory blacken, If a coward there be itliat,would slacken, Till.we'-ve trampled the Turban, and shewn ourselves worth being sprung from and named for the godlike of citrlil. Strike home, and the world shall revere us As heroes descended from heroes. 'Old Greece lightens up with emotion Her inlanrls,-hcr isles of the ocean: Fanes-rebuilt, and fair towns, shall with jubilee ring, And the Nine shall uew-hallpw their Helicon's spring. (Our hearths shall be kindled in gladness,: That were cold and extinguisli'd in sadness; Wiiiisto-iriniti dens shall dunCf", with iheir white-waving arms, Singing jay to the bra.ve that deliver'd their cliaruis; When ilie blo'od of yon IVlussulftian craveii# ^hall have criiajjii'd the beaLs of our raveuti S rOÓK Ex.cH-ise J, Twelw 'e'c/oc^.—Owing Iii the anfor- • ntatio.ifroinPiuis this morning the above market WIIS, crowded at an early hour, and Consols opened at.80| went up to 81, 8l| 81.
