guarantee to you that this promising boy will speak for the first time, in loud, clear accents, those endearing words, papa, papa, papa--patria mia, patria mia--and, in name, as in effect, he will hunt traitors from this fort, while the echo of his voice will be as sweet music, inviting the children of Columbia to share the comforts of his father's home; and thus may he soon speak to the glory of the Stars and Stripes, honor to the name that he bears, and lasting credit to the Sixty-Ninth.--Louisville Journal, June 25.
