OX THE CUFFS. While the little ones gather flowers, tv rustle about In the core, I’ll pray to the sea , To bring to me, The schooner, the Golden Horn. The horizon, gray and dim, Scarce darker than the sky, Hides all behind, That I fain would find. Would I had power to fly. Like the gull that now alights— On the waves with its snowy breast; And a moment more Whirls over the shore— On sea nor land at rest. Little gray blots of ships; Nearer, a tawny sail, Ochry red; And overhead, The breath of a southern gale. A dancing, glittering sea, Farpie and laughing green; with a ripple of gold On every fold, And a ruffle of surf between. The barley is glossy as silk, Bowing to every cloud; And cliekeiy-dack, Tickety-tack, The bird’s rattle sounds so kmd. The wind-mill there on the hill Is tossing its arms about; Signaling To the snips on the wing. And the waves below that snout. GBtter and dance, ye waves, And bear my darling home; The boy with the hair Curling so fair— I love him where’er he roam. Who knows but those broad brown sails, Bounding the Foreland there, Bring him to me From over the sea, Safe from the cruel gales ? No 1 for they tack again, And bear away to the west; And he I know, Straight, straight would go hack to his mother’s breas’. The poppies are fluttering red Over the chalk-cliff’s edge; 4 * Nodding to me, And then to the sea, From every Sun-burnt ledge. The wild geraninm, too, Has a butterfly fluttering rctu and But the thistle's alone. My own—my own, He is far. on the rolling Sound. Blow homeward, gentle wind" Blow from the Baltic shore ; And poppies. I pray, Bend all one way, To show he will come once more. Break faster, faster, surf; Charge thousands all abreast; Roll mountain high, t Bo the little ship fly, And bring my bird to his nest. —[Chamber’s Journal. News from Japan -7 We have received full files of the Japan Herald, published at Yokohama, Japan, as well as of the Japan Commercial News, published at Kanagawa. The dates, inclusive, extend to the 30th of November. Trfe various foreign Consuls in Japan have publicly recognized the Japan Herald as the official organ .of their res pective departments. The columns of the Herald are well supplied with ad vertisements, which show that trade is a flourishing cqndition in that distant country, despite the frequent convulsions arising tVom wars and rebellions. Apnong the local sports indulged in we find, ipentioned the chase, mile races, hurdle races, wheelbarrow races, sack yre stlin & three-legged races, water jftucKit race, ana other coQvivi&l pastimes well suited to- the Changeable tempera ment 4rt the good people of Jeddo, 1 oko hama and Kanagawa. The Commercial News of the 26th of October announces the Approaching cle ?arfure from Japan of Sir R Alcock, K. . R,fier Britannic Majesty’s Plenipo tentiary, anti expresses great regret that he should leave at a period when his services are most urgently required to *fcnogaU the difficulties with the Japa- a termination, it seems that the favorable treaty concluded between U rahce and Japan has been totally ig n“^.d.b and, his Goregio, 410 that it is feared there will be some mu e Europeans and natives. .. is a strong body of British, troops in Japan. On the 20th of October some sixteen hundred men were publicly* re-' viewed to the great delight and astonish ment of the Japanese. Asa singular coincidence the national Japanese troops were also reviewed on the same parade by the side of the British soldiers. Their wardresses were very picturesque and* much admired. The papers are fail of the particulars of the brutal murder of two Brtish offi cers, Major George Walter Baldwin and Lieut. Robert Nicholas Bird, of her British Majesty’s Twentieth regiment. On the 21 st of November they left Yoko hama on horseback for an excursion to Kamakura and Daiboots, but on arriv ing near the first named place they were set, upon and foully murdered. After the usual formality of an jn quest, the bodies were interred with full military honors. The British, French, American and Dutch Ministers attended ; also the Governor of Kanagawa and suite, and the officers of the ships-of-war and land forces in the country of every nationali ty. In closing its account of the funeral, the Japan Herald says ;-t-“We know from the begt authority, Jhat Sir Ruther ford Alcock is resolutely determined, by every means at his command, to urge, and of necessary, to compel the Japtfiese authorities to do their utmost to discover anfl deliver up the murderers.” It is also stated that the Japanese authorities were doing their best to ferret out the perpe trators. < ~{ Among other prominent announce ments in the papers are several of the proprietors of large hotels, offering splen did accommodations to the travelling public. The caterer of the Commercial Hotel announces comfortable, light and roomy dining room, and an excellent table d'hote at seven P. M. There are in hotel several suites of private rooms nicely furnished, and fitted for the resi dence of ladies and families visiting from China, India, &c. The bedrooms are beautifully furnished, and the billiard tables, and bowling alleys are all re furnished and redecoratea. So much for the spread of European ideas among the subjects of the Tycoon. N.
