There’s brightness in the starry sky,
Anti stillness o’er tho dimpled sea.
Save where tlie watchful night-bird’s cty
Comes oh the wild breeze trembling by ;
But oil! what are the gtdrry skies,
Or peace below, or light above,
When far away from thole we prize,
When parted from thfi hearts we love?
TJieire r * silence io the oceab cave,
. And all is calm nnd bright and still.
And the moon smiles sweetly on the wave,
But the wavra beneath are cold ant! chill;
And nh! as cold as the waves that play
Beneath that mobn-beam from above,
We feel, we fe,l, wfitfd far away.
When parted front the hearts we love.

Tha idea which - has been suggested in a
Western pajmr, and rejieated in the Boston
Bulletin, of endeavoring.to obnftn frond Mexi
co, by friendly negotiation and fur ampin equivtt

though happily in the progress of human affair*,,
it speedily devolved upou the bar born repub

and of rivers, so deeply and vitally injurious to
the United Slates, and so lUli* <J«*ir»ble to in
