PROLOGUE. Written by James N. Barker, Esq.

This is the age of enterprise, they say;

Behold the proof to-night — a yankee play!

In vain I reason'd — reason to a bard!

'Tis the last thing these gentlemen regard.

True, I admitted, we are vastly clever,

We yankees — and have been, and will be ever.

We've had our Franklin, Fulton, Godfrey — true;

But what has that with poesy to do?

The lightning-rod draws no poetic fire;

You can't convert the quadrant to a lyre ;

Nor has the time come yet, when you can dream

Of writing dramas by the power of steam.

'Tis certain that we've made some clever movements

In what we style inventions and improvements ;

But never gained, whatever our intention,

A patent for poetical invention.

'Tis true, that while a bard might write a ditty,

We cut a forest down and build a city;

But neither of the muses ever show'd

The march of mind upon a turnpike road ;

Nor can the swiftest steamer bear your name,

By rail-road or by thorough-cut , to fame:

Go then, I cried, rather than idly write,

And dig canals or delve for anthracite.

Fire in the poet's eye, and play in hand,

Away, he cried, you wrong my native land.

Although my countrymen may view to-night,

No eastern tinsel glittering on the sight,

And critic fops may sneer, and stand aloof,

Because the fabric's western, web and woof —

Americans who would be truly free,

Will never scorn domestic industry —

Nor, while each foreign frippery claims admission,

Deny their homespun chance of competition.

Besides, he cried, I other aid invoke,

(His pallid visage kindling as he spoke,) —

My theme shall bear me out: What recreant slave

Shall see, unmoved, his country's banner wave?

What patriot eye coldly behold the fray,

When patriot valour won the glorious day;

Amid the foe, guided the victor's car,

And rescued Orleans from the wolves of war?

What bosom shall be shut, what heart be dead,

When he, the HERO, deigns the scene to tread?

Whose Roman bosom shields a Roman heart,

Safe from the foeman as the traitor's dart:

He — warrior, sage — stamp'd by the hand of fate,

Alike in valour, wisdom, virtue — GREAT!

No, cried the ardent youth, 'twere base to yield,

E'en with the name of Jackson in the field —

Who never yielded yet — the conqueror who

Conquered the conquerors of Waterloo;

And since that day, in triumph has moved on,

Till a whole people's conquered hearts are won.

 I bowed submissive — every tongue can tell

The name of Jackson is invincible.

May then to-night, the saying but prove true,

And in our bard's behalf he'll conquer you.
