A Sti1t in tub Bank.—Wo ece Mr. Baldwin
hire boon splitting a bauk note. We do not know
whether a bank noli, lilco a secret, is likely to fjo
nny further for being' split, or whether a £6 note,
rplit into two notes, is equal to $10: but if Mr.
Baldwin will only give us .CIO for every £5 noto
we have, he is perfectly welcome to split, the dif
ference. By-thc-bye, Air. Baldwin would not bo
bad mediator to send to Schleswig Holstein, in
order to split the difference (whatever it may be)
that lias so Ions' existed there. But if Mr. Bal
dwin can increase our resources two-fold, merely
by dividin'? them, ho is unquestionably the lirst
Fy in m-ial Reformer of the age. and should cer
tainly have a scat in the House, if it is only to re
present Dublin. Tho next liras he tries an ex
periment upon a £1,000 note—tho Bank will of
course supply the material—wo should liko ( un-

••Halves,"
Dbimkixo Goto.—The grafw, we rend, la cult!-
vateil with th«; greatest success In California.-—
I'm icy drinking California* wine! How rich it
must be. U must be something like our very best
"gulden sherries,” only with much more gold in
it. Tho bouquets alone, we can fancy, would
fetch a guinea a piece, in Covent Garden Market,
nnd the crustofonoofthcir full-bodied Californian
p >r I.s must supply tho poor family to whom it was
thrown, with bread all Its life. Only iinnglnc al
so, what quantities of22m de Vie de JJunlxte must
bo made every year on the bauksof the Sacramen
to? They have only to dip the bottle into tho riv
er to bring it out ruled with those little rags of
gold that you see dancing up and down,as ifeneh
particle was tipsy, ill the above named brandy.
Of course, the vino which nourishes in California,
was originally imported from the Cote-D'or ; and
a gown made from tu*h a slip would boa fortune
to a lady. Why, it would bo nothing but a tissue
of gold!
Instantaneous Diplomacy.—Tlio prospect of
the establishment of a Submarine Electric Tele-
ginpli l«*eerPOUteaUWS and Boulogne, and
• •fan in-Jlanlmicouscommunication . ■. Lou
don anil Paris, suggests many weighty and soma
light reflections. The possibilityotan immediate
int'-rrhangs betw^eh the governments of Franco
nnd England will save our Ambassador at Paris
one h.'tlfof his trouble, and the nation, of course,
jmd set much of his salary. A great economy
nlsawU!, doubtless, bo e ffected in the language
of diplomacy* which will become Idiomatic, pithy
nnd pertinent. As for instance: “Can’t you re
duce that tariff?” “Not in the present state of
tho Exchequer.” “Take the duty off our claret.”
“Don’t you wish you may get it?”# “Wo think
about interfering in Germany.” “You’d better
not." “What do you say to cutting down our
armaments? “We will if you will.” “Well,
if you will wo will.” 4, Como then, you begin.”
"No, you.” “Afteryou is manners.” “Captain
Hawser complains that you have insulted our
flag." “No such thing.” u Pax or bethmV*
'•Put." "Stop tlilefl N "Who?” Five feel ten
inches, light hair, and squlnls.” “Oblige our
bank with n loan.” “How much?” “Only a
million.” We’re too lianl up.” “London quiet?”
"Tolerably. How’s Paris?” “All right.”
The only objection to a Submarine Telegraph
between the two countries, that we can see, is, that
nny shock originating in Franco is felt quito soon
enough in England already.
Tub Public Voica.—The Public Voice, for the
last fortnight, has had a frightful cold. It ho*
been iloing nothing but. sneezing nnd coughing
every wh r«\ Jenny Lind’s songs at Exeter Hull
were sung to a running accompaniment of ca
tarrhs, nnd each aoft entreaty to “hush” was re
scinded toby n mighty “Hi-i-i-sh-IIa” that sound
ed exnc tly as if the big drum had burst. Really,
an intimation ought to be put at the bottom of
the hills s “No Couous Admitted.” A song from
the Swedish Nightingale Is one of those things
that should notbe sneezed at., A sanitary com
mission should sit at tho doors, and take n viva
vote examination of all persons who enter; for If
the Public Voice cannot remain quiet when it is
, in public, it had liclter stop at home, and take its
gruel by tiro fireside, and put its feet in warm wa
ter, aiul gi t cured as soon as possible.” The Pub-
lie Voire, when It has a cold, is very like one of
Verdi'* operas—all noise and no melody.
. CO- Mr. Bourcicault, the Dramatist, it appears,
from his recent examination befiire a bankruptcy
court, sold his play of “ London Assurance” to the
manager Webster for £40 or £80.
" The experience of the last few years,” says
the •Albion,* “would seem to prove that tho reign
of the ‘Star System' i* coming to a close * “ *
The host‘minor satellites’ must nceesam..,
content to lnlwr in their vocation among the rank
end file of the regular stock companies. The in
terests of tho drama will be improved by this
change, and acting will again become a profession
since the aspirantTor dramatic fame must pass
through tho necessary probation, before he can
stand nis ground with the experienced professors
of (ho art. Nor will this return to the old eftab-
lisheil usage that once governed the stage be less
beneficial to dramatists. Pieces will be written to
display tho capabilities of a stock compativ not
to glorify ono particular actor. A wide field will
bo open to Die genius of tho author, and he wil,
no longer be compelled to sacrifice his own con
ceptions to the whim, the vainty, or tho carprice,
of one ’leading star.' ”
fid- Ex-President Polk andSmte, ns will bo
seen by reference to the notice in this morning’s
paper from Ids Honor Die Mayor, are expected to
airive this afternoon at 6 o’clock. Wo suppose
that every arrangement has been mado to receive
Mr. Polk in a manner becoming alike to the dis
tinguished slalion which ho has just vacated and
the character of tho city, whose guest he is to be.
That our citizens, without distinction ol party,
will unite In a cordial welcome, and extend to Idm
those attentions and civilities which are so emi
nently proper and becoming on such an occasion,
wo do uot entertain the least doubt. He is the
truest of the city and tho Ex-President of the
United States—facts which alono will ensure him
hearty reception.
Tho reader is referred to tho communication
from his Honor tho Mayor, for a programme of
arrangements.
Od- We understand that the Marino & Fire In
surance Bauk of this city is checking on Northern

Another Victim or Intemperance.—A Cor
oner’s inquest was held over'the body or John
Grady, a native of Ireland, who was found dead
yesterday morning, near tho U. 8. Barracks.
The veidiet of the jury was that he came to his
death by intemperance.
Magnetic Telbqrapii.—The Griffin IVhig, of
the 8th inst., says: “The Posts on Dio lino from
Macon to Atlanta, are all up. Tho wires will be
suspended in a few day*. It Is thougiit that by
tho 1st of April the line will bo in full operation.”
Cotton Shipped from Gaimx.—We are in
debted to the Griffin IVhig for tho following:
•hipped from that place from 8ept. 1st, 1843, to
March 1st. 1849 It shows a considerable increase
over tliut of last season:
Cotton forwarded from 8ept. 1st to Feb. 1st,S3, 1 799

Leprosy.—The awful disease of leprosy still
exists in Africa. Whether it bo the same lep
rosy os tint mentioned in the Bible, 1 do not know;
but is regarded ns perfectly incurable, nnd so
infectious that no. one dares to come near the
leper. In tho South of Africa there is a large
lazar-house for lepers. It is an immense space,
enclosed by a very high wall, and containing
fields which the iepere cultivate. There is only
one entrance, which is strictly guarded. When
nny one is found with the marks of leprosy upon
him, he is brought to this gate and obliged to
enter in, n> ver to return. No one who enters in
by that awful gate is ever allowed to coineout
again. Within this abode of misery there are
multitudes of lepers in all the stages of the dis
ease. Dr. Helbeck, a missionary of the Church
of England, from the top of a neighboring hill,
saw them at work. He noticed two particularly,
sowing peas In the field. The one had no hands,
the other had no feet—these members being wast
ed away by tho disease. The one who wanted
the hands was carrying the other who wanted the
feet, upon his back, and he, again, carried in his
hands the bag of seed, and dropped a nca every
now and then, which the other piesscd into the
ground with Ids foot, and so they managed the
work of one man between the two. Ah! how lit
tle we know of the misery that is in this world.—
Such is this prison house of disease. But you will
ask who cares for the souls of tho hapficss in
mates? Who will venture to enter again? Who
will forsake father and mother, bouses and land,
to carry the message of a Savior to these poor
lepers? Two Moravian Missionaries, impelled
by a divine love for souls have chosen this lnzar
house os their field of labor. They entered it
never to come out again. And, I am told, that
ni soon as they die, other Moravians are quite
ready to fill tlidr place. Ah! my dear friends,
may wo not blush and 1ms ashamed before God,
that we,redeemed wltlithesame blood, and taught
by tho same spirit, should yet be so unlike these
men in vehement, heart consuming love of Jesus
nnd the souls of men.—ItrCheyne.
An Elpehakt Loose.—Last night about ten
o’clock, on elephant belonging to the Zoological
Hall in the Bowery, broke loose from his keepers
and traversed tho streets at a rapid pace much
11 the consternation of those whom he encounter
ed. He did some injury to sundry shops, and
severely battered the walla of several house*.' He
was finally caught and secured at the corner of
Anthony-atrcct nnd Broadway, where a great
crowd collected to witness the triumph of tho
keeper over tha huge beast. The keeper stand
ing victoriously on the neck of the conquered
animal, arined with his long goad, was surround-
od by a multitude of curious persons. Occa
sionally & cry was raised that the elephant was
getting up, which of course produced a rush a-
cro** the sundry streets. In one of these stam
pedes several persons were knocked down and
effectually bespattered with mud, though other
wise not much injured.—Exprut.
The Man that Spoke Mexican.—Gen. Wool
is a strict and rigid disciplinarian, as well as a gal
lant nnd accomplished officer. The following
“good ’un” which Captain Tobin tells us happened
in camp, must have excited the fiery little Gen-
>.cral to n degree. While sitting In his marque
a Mexican was ushered into bis presence whose
iloiii'wnor denoted tho importance of some weighty
roinmunh ation which ho wished to deliver.
The general could not speak Spanish, and his
interpreter was sought in vain A long specimen
of ftouckcr, who from tho outer style or his dress,
the general took perhaps fora ranger, happened
«t that moment to struggle post.
“Como hero my mau,” called outtho general.
With an air of perfect nonchalance, the Sucker
doffed his battered castor and enterod the tent.
"Do you speak Mexican?" Inquired tho gen
eral.
“Whv, general, I rather guess not.”
« Well, can you toll mo of somo one who
does?” . , lt
“Yes slr-eo—I just can,” answered (he man.
“Quick,then, let mo know where ho is!” de
manded the irrnsciblo commander.
“Why, here,” drawled tho imperturbable suck
er, laying his hand on tho Mexican with whom it
was desired to communicate—"he can't speak any
thing € he!” Capt. Tobin left just then.
SAVANNAH, GA..
SATURDAY MOItNING, MAIU'll 10, 1810.
The Clokino Sornes or Cosaacsa.—Our read
ers are aware lliat Mr. Foote of Mississippi, and
Mr. Cameron of Pennsylvania, had a (personal
rencontre on the last night of thu session, when
blows wero froely exchanged. Mr. Thompson
of Arkansas, Mr. Imgb of Alabama, and Mr.
Ficklin of llliuols, enacted a similar scene of
ruwdeyism during the same evening, ouly lliat it
was more of a knoek-down-and-drag-out a flair.
We are glad that no Whig so fitr forgot himself
as to engage in cither. These scene* of personal
violence and outrage, so humiliating to Uie coun
try and bo well calculated to bring our National
Legislature Into disrepute, are as Injurious to
our character abroad as they are offensive to
the moral sense of tho nation. We agree with
the Baltimore Clipper, that tlierfc can bo no
apology offered for them; for, whatever dif
ferences may havo occurred, or however im
proper tho language which may liaVe been used
in tho excitement of debate, neither the Scnato nor
the house were tho proper places to settle accounts
between members by resort to personal combats.
Wo unequivocally condemn such proceedings,
and think that they will not bo approved by a
single individual of respectability in tho Union.
How can it bo expected lliat the moral feeling of
the community will be sufficient to suppress prize
fighting for wsgers, when members of Congress
set the cxamplo of engaging thus publicly In pu
gilistic contests? It is stated, and perhaps may
be urged in extenuation of the outrages which
were committed, that some members were intox
icated—but ibis, if truo, would bo an aggravation
of the offence.
Act roa the Relief or Widows, Obphanb,
&c.—Among the sets patted, and therefore be
come laws, during the present Congress, we see
with pleasure, one approved on the 24th ult, giv
ing five aeart' half pap to the widows and orplians
of every officer, non-commissioned officer, and
private, who served during the late war with
Mexico, and was honorably discharged, or con
tinued in service to the time of his death, and
whose death was in consequence of wounds re
ceivcd, or “disease contracted within the Une of
duty.”
Men who fight the battles of their country and
undergo all the dangers and privations incident
to war, deserve well of those whose tights they
have maintained and whose firesides they have
defended. But when they foil on the field of
death and are placed beyond the reach of human
charity and admiration, it is none the leu proper
that their wives am] children should be objects of
our care and sympathy. We hope therefore that
the spirit and letter of this law,will be carried
out, a thing which has not always been done. It
has not unfrequentiy been the case, we fear, that
applicants for the pensions sml bounties provided
ior them by Government have been defrauded by
officers connected with the Departments at Wash
ington. We remember once to have brought to
the notice of a Government officer a case invol
ving louof property in the public service during
the Florida war; and as a precautionary step,
we first obtained from the officer detailed in
structions as to the shewing which had to be made
before compensation for the lou would be allowed.
Tho shewing was accordingly made and placed
in the bands of a member of Congress and s
friend of the Administration. The officer decided
that it was defective, and suggested certain alter
ations , which were a* once made, and the shewing
again amt on; but still it did not come tip to
the requirements of the Government leech, though
it answered to his instructions. The fact was,
we doubt not, he wanted the money himself.
Having obtained a statement from the applicant
which ho could use, he proceeded to drew the
money from theTreasury, and quietly put it in his
own pocket, and then informed the poor man who
had fought the battles of his country in the most
inhospitable clime, that the shewing was fatally
defective, and no compensation could be granted.
Gen.TAYLOn, being a soldier himself, will un
derstand these things; and wo doubt not he will
see that the bounty which tho Government has
provided for the widow and orphan shall be meted
out to them according to the law which grants it.
Iimus;m'nt|on of President Taylor*
The Baltimore American say»i Tho ccrciuo
hies which took place at Washington on Monday,
on the occasion of the.lnaugurution of GF.NEHAL
ZACHARY TAYLOR, ns President of the United
States, were imposing in the highest degree, and
were witnessed by an immense concourse of per
sons. From an early liour in the morning tho
whole city presented a scene of animation aud
bustling excitement, which seemed to portend the
occurrence of some event in which all felt them-
dves. interested.
From every prominent point the National en
sign was to be seen waving, whilst the occasional
burst of music from the bands of the military ns
they passed along tho streets, served to add still
mute to the enthusiasm wliich was ready to break
forth on every side. As tho morning advanced,
(lie previously almost countless multitude which
thronged the streets, was still further augmented
by tho thousands who camo pouring in, by the
cars, fr om Baltimore, aud from tho surrounding
country, in every imaginable kind of vchiclo
which could be pressed into service.
At ten o’clock Pennsylvania Avenue, from the
Capitol to the President'* House, seemed com
pletely filled with human beings, all apparently
intent on gaining some position which they had
selected os a favorable spot for viewiug the ap
proaching ceremonies. The vicinity of the Capi
tol, and of Wlllaid’s Hotel, where Gen. Taylor
lodged, were the chief points of attraction, and
tliousands took Uieir stations nl both places, liour*
before they could expect to be gratified In what
was evidently the chief desideratum, n sight of
General Taylor.
Shortly afler eleven o’clock tho Procesalon
liieli was to escort tlie President elect to the
Capitol formed in F-street, and moved by way
of Fifteenth-street and Pennsylvania Avenue to
tlie front of Willard's Hotel. Hero the line was
halfed a few minutes, and General Taylor ap
peared, accompanied by Ex-President Polk and
the Vke President elect, Hon. Muliasd Fill-
morb. They seated themselves in an open ba
rouche drawn by four fine white horses.
Tho appearance of the President elect was
greeted with loud ami prolonged bIkuiIa from the
multitude which crowded the space in front of
tbehotol. As soon as ho was escoiied Into line
the procciMion moved up the Avenue toward the
Capitol in the following order :
Music.
Richard Wallace, K«q.. Marshal-inchief,
with nids.
Military.
Col. N- Hickman, commanding; Major J. 11.
Watkins, nnd Adjutaut 8. S. Mills.
Junior Artillerists, Capt. Marshall.
- Another Washington Monument.—TheVir
ginia Legislature has passed a bill to erect a Mon
ument to Washington, on Capitol square, Rich
mond. In the House of Delegates, it very appro
priately passed on the 22d, the anniversary of his
birth-day.
Od- Fanny Kemble Butler’s first Shakspeare'
rowing in Now Yolk, took place uu the Sd Inst.,
at the Stuyvesant Institute, before an overflowing
house. Seventy-five dollars in Money were re
turned to those who could not find accommoda
tion.
Suicide.—A young married woman committed
Suicide In New York on the night of the 3d inst.
by taking laudanum. Some mystery exists in
the matter, and her name could not be obtained
in consequence.
0d» In the city of New York alone, the con
sumption of cigars Is computed at ten thousand
dollars a day—a stun greater than that which the
inhabitants pay for their daily bread; and, In the
whole country, the annual consumption of tobac
co is estimated at one hundred thousand lbs.
boing seven pounds to every man, woman and
child, at on annual cost to the consumers of twen
ty millions dollars.
0O» The largest Packet Ship in'the World has
just been built at Portsmouth, N. H. She is call
ed the Empire State. Her tonago is 1,640 tons,
carpenter’s measure—being larger than any
packet ship now afloat. She is owned by Messrs.
D. & A. Kinobland & Co., of New York, and is
to bo commapded by Capt. J. S. Russell, pait
owner, under whose supervision »h$ has been con
structed. She is intended to ply between New
York nnd Liverpool.

Officers and Soldiers of tho war of 1812: among
these were r number of tiro Association of the De
fenders of Baltimore lit 1814, who attracted much
attention. After them came Officers and Soldiers
of tho Florida and Mexican wars.
Then followed tho President Elect and suite.
The carriage in which he rode being flanked on
the right by the United States Marshal of the Dis
trict of Columbia with Ills deputies; and on the
left by a number of citizen inurshaU, all mount
ed.
Immediately after the carringo which contained
the President elect and suite, followed the Laurel
Light Dragoons, under command of Col. Ca-
peon, who rode with the gallant Col. May, on his
right.
Afler these, came a long line composed of del
egation* from various States, and from the Rough
and Ready Clubs of the District and of Alexan
dria ami Fairfax Counties, Virginia, and of Torn-
Iterance Societies and other organized associn-
As Uic procession thus advanced toward the
Capitol, the Avenue presented a most extraordi
nary apectacle. Every inch of tho street seemed
occupied by a dense mass of persons, all strug
gling-and pushing to get forward, whilst every
window along the route was crowded by ladies,
who by tlieir smiles and waving liandlcerchicfo
testified tlieir participation in the enthusiasm
which the scene and-the occasion were so well
calculated to call forth.
Gen. Taylor kept uncovered during the whole
progress, and frequently and cordially acknowl
edged tlie gicetings which his presence elicited.
On arriving at'the Southern entrance to the
Capitol grounds the military formed with open
ranks, die carriage containing the President elect
passing between Ihetnou to the Capitol, where he
was received by the Committee of Arrangements
and conducted to the floor of the Senate Chamber.
Precisely at 12 o’clock the Marshal of tlie Dis
trict of Columbia appeared on tlie Eastern Porti
co pf the Capitol, where suitable preparations
had been made for tlie Inauguration Ceremonies.
Ho was succeeded almost immediately by the
Judges of the Supreme Court,, in their rones of
office, with Chief Justice Taney at their head,
Then followed:
Tho Scrgcant-nt- Arms of the Senate.
The Committee of Arrangements.
The President elect and Ex-President, nnd the
Yicc President and Ex-Vice President.
In the rear, of these caine the Members of the
Senate and of the House of Representatives, the
Diplomatic Corps, distinguished officers of the
Army and Navy, and n large number of ladies
occupying tho steps and the rcsiduo of the por
tico.
As soon as all had taken their plnces, nnd the
cheers from the immense multitude, which occu
pied every part of the space in front of the portico
hadsubsiued, the President elect arose and advanc
ing towards the Chief Justice, the oath of office
was administered to him with due solemnity by
that functionary.
On the completion of this ceremony President
Taylor turned towards the assemblage and deliv
crcd the Inaugural Address.
The address was de livered by tho President in
an easy and unembarrassed manner, and with
appropriate gestures, though in a rather low tone
m yolco. He held a copy m his hand during the
delivery, but glanced only occasionally at it.—
On its conclusion he was conducted back to the
Senate Chamber, whilst the loud roar of artillery
announced the consummation of tho ceremonies
attendant upon tho induction into office of the
Chief Magistrate of the Nation.
After a short stay in the Senate Clumber, during
which he received the respects of tlioso present,
the President took his scat in the carriage, and,
escorted by the military, proceeded to tlie Presi
dential mansion, where, during tlio afternoon, he
received tho visits of a Urge number of persons.
fltj- Tho N- V. Son has the following letter,
received by the Crescent City:
Panama, Morning of Feb. lGth,1849.
? send you by the last means of conveyance s
few items of interest from California. They were
received here this morning from a Spaniard wIkj
cainc passenger in the Peruvian lurque Martinez
direct from San Francisco.
Emigrants of all kinds and colors arc pour
ing in in multitudes. Every language, race,
•«*•*»< ami stuifle u represented. Lawyers, minis
ters, women in mall attire, robbers, aristocrats;
and onicnsU from civilized life, nil are flocking to
Uie gold regions. All are frantic with hopes of
finding chunks of gold os largo ss mill stones; but
a few days’experience of California life changes
the views of gold hunting.
Living is excessively high, and mining for the
precious minerals is one of the woret kinds of
lottery. For each person that is so fortunate as
to find a mass sufficient to enrich him for life,
there arc dozens who scarcely make a living.
Many roblteries have taken place, but they are
chiefly confined to food and clothing. These
things, at times, when there is a scarcity In the
market, bring excessive prices. One day flour
may at retail bring $200 a barrel, although a
few days before it was sold for #15.
The necessities of many of the emigrants and
these varieties in prices lead to numerous thefls.
Robberies for gold are rare. One or two murders
have, however, occurred for this cause.
The new comers and greenhorns arc frequently
swindled in the mcwt shnmeful manner, nnd re
dress it out of the question. Perhaps great social
crimes might be punished, but everything is as
yet too new, and thieving is too common to to
punished in Uie absence of regular law.
For instance a green one who has goods for sale
often takes large quantities of glittering ore, sup
posing it to to gold, but too Into finds It nothing
but copper and iron ore—buthe can do nothing to
recover his poperty.
Spurious silver ore is common. On first land
ing, many arc willing to sell their coats off their
backs for this sort ofpay.
Tho emigrants who havo guns, powder and
ball to protect themselves, nrc frequently driven
by hunger to leave their all and seek for provi
sions.
Gang* of desperadoes in. the mountains steal
the mule* of Uie miners and kill them for food.
A company is about to to formed of those who
can raise mules or means to travel overland to the
States. It would in their condition ben terrible
expedition, but they prefer doing to to living as
nt present.
An Evening's Romance#

For tho night is bitter coM;

And my heart and eye* ate viewy
Of Ui<! mist that clan* all day
Mko a veil of saddest grey.
Heavy and funereal,
O’er the ash-trees, bare and tidl,
O'er the dark green fire, Hint stand
Like tiim mourners, hand in hand,
Hound about an open tonib,

1 niii weary of the sight • .
Ur those larch-boughs long and light,
Waving, waving to and fro,
With a motion sadly slow,
While the wind sighs oat smstn,
Like a human soul in rain.
As upon some sandy shore
When the tempest’s rtge is o’er,
And the breeze’* trumpet-tone
t-inketh to a whispered moan,
ti'oine pale form uuy II* outspread, .
Lone, ami ocean stained, and dead.—
Home young girl, wIkwo flowing hah
Hlrewn in mournful beauty there,
When tire waters come and go
With a tranquil tbb and flow,

Drops when sinks the wave to ««»*(*
Even So those branches bsre,
Float upon the moaning sir.
We will turn from thoughts Uke tills
To a fairy realm ol Mies—
Hit Afas! I am alone!
' Be, whose voice’s kindly ton*
Aye responded to mine own,
W*tulct* for away t and those.
Who from dawnto day light's close,
t’lluing off from room to room,
Chased away th* wintry gloom
With the muiic of their fret,
Ami the round o( laughter sweet i
Those gay sprites, those children ftitr,
Hright-kured. blue-eyed, laughing pah,
Each within her little nest
Ueth wrapt in Joyful test
Yet, to night, with spirit free,
Lone and silent though I he,
l will dream a poet's dream,
Hitting by the Are’s red gleam.
I will gaze with joyful glance
On the woods of old Romance,—
Those wild woods that never fade,
Flinging everlasting shade
Over paths of living green,
Winding, hoary stems between;
Leading oft to nooks apart,
Where no sunbeam e’er can dart
Through the Isaty screen above,
Whence tlm vole* of hlddeu dove
Low repltcth to the fall
Of the waters musical
Welling from A fountain clear,
Calmly glad ss all things near.
Whence diverge on either side
Lesser paths with flowers bcsUown,
Or with burnished moss o’ergrown,
Comes a war-horse’ stately tread;
High hs rear* hU gtaceful head,
And the gnus Is flecked below,
As he muves,wilh foam be like snow.
Fleck his coat, and black as .light.
Have that one small star of white
Olenins upon hi* brow; dark red
Are his housings, thickly spread
With a maze of golden thread;
On his bridle glilter fair
Wroughten eftl and brold’ry rare.
Hears he forth a youthful knight,
Armed and re»dy Ibr iho Fight,
lie Ingaibofmailis drest,
And above his jewelled crest
Milk white pkiuiea are floating free,
. Hininless as hts fame can be.
O’er the dappled turf he rides,
And anon a sunbeam slide*
Through the toughs above his track,
And its light it given beck
By his armour's dazzling sheen;
Then ihrmigfc depths of shade serene,
Where dark cedar* o'er them bend,
Hired nnd rider calmly wend.
Now, In lhoMht,some long-put flght
Flashes o’er Uie warror’a sight,
And hts lame he proudly shakes,
While a muttered war-cry break*
From his parted lip<; and now
Hear remembrance of the tow,
I ’llered by s voice as sweet
As the hlddrn streams that fleet
Where the shadow deepest lies,
llrinseth softness to his eyes.
While his heart with fondness thrill*,
At the thought of those for hills,
Where thelady of his heart
In her sadness dwells sprat.
Suddenly a bitter wall
Rises on the samnrer gale.
Hound to succour all who need,
Lo, the knlihlhath turned his steed
Down a walk bestrewn with showers
Of the linden’s yellow flowers I
Dim the light that passeth through
Interwoven brtnrh and bough;
Heavy Is the sir beneath
With the blossoms’ scented breath;
Drowsy wlib their toll Uie bees
Hang in clusters on the trees,
Moving on from Ume to time,
With Uieir pleasant summer chime,
Answered by a merry note
From the leaf-hid cuckoo's throat
Soon, beyond Uie linden shade,
Fees the kakilit a turfy glade,
Folded in with mountain Desks,
Down whose sides in gliU'riug streaks
Many a singing streamlet flows i
In the midst, in still repose,
Lie* out* me ad a crystal pool,
And within its waters cool.
Mirrored sleeps the quiet sky;
And a pearly cloud sails by,—
E'en a* if an angel flew
O’er the depths of calmest blue,
nut a woful sight Is now,
'Neath the cedar’s whlsp’ring hough;
Hiretchcd upon the turf lies one
Whose U.«t battle deed is done.
Falls the red sword from his hand,
Broken like a willow-wand;
Helm and breastplate, all unbound,
I.ie beside him on the ground;
And Ute life-blood welteth slow
From a wound upon his brow.
At bis head a lady fair,
Kneeling with her long bright hair
Blrives to staunch the wound—in vain to
CSnnpinc rich and sob of pain
Echo hack her saddest fear,
And she feels that death is near.
Wildly weep* she in her woe,
O’er Us face tire hot tears flow;
Vet he speaks no loving word.—
He whore heart wss ever etlrr’d
* By the lightest grief that stole
O'er the sunshine of her soul I
Bwifr the irand’ring knight draws nigh
Hazing wilh a pitying eye
On Ute lady’s tear-stain’dcheek;
Words of cheer he fain would speak,
Ilut he feels how vain they were
In that hour of wild despair.
Quickly from his steed he springs,
Lsnce and shield aside he flings,
And the scarf his lady wove,
Precious token of her love,
From hit gallant breast unwinds,
And about the stranger binds.
Vain his care—he writhes no mote -
One deep sigh and all Is o’er I
Then he strives with gentle speech
That sad lady’s ear to reach,
Praying her, In brief, to tell
How such cruel hap befell j
And, at last, In accents weak,
Htrivcs she all tiic truth to speak,
Pausing many a time to weep
. O’er her hero’s Moody sleep.
Tells she bow for many a day
They hod wandered, blithe and gay j
Tells she how her sire held sway
O’er a lovely land Ural lay
On the snnny Indian shore;
Tells she how that warrior bore
From her gr-ntie mother’s side
Her, his fond and wedded bride.
Wrought be many a deed of fame
For the love of his dear dame;
Huong and ready was his arm,
Rescuing the weak from harm,
Laying low each wicked wight,
As became a stalwart knight.
Ilut, at Iast,a Paynim bold,
• With a shield off jetted gold,
And a lance of magic might,
Met him there in deadly light:
Powerless the Paynim’s arin,
Hut for help of inaglc charm;
HUong in that unearthly strength,
He had won the day at lengUi.
Rent he o’er his prostrate foe, *
When the lady’s shriek of woe
Brought the Mower of Knighthood near,
And the caitiff fled In fenr,
wamed of old lo keep aloof
From that armour, magic-proof.
Hark. Iho .dork I—an hour hath sped,
And iny sunny dream is fled,—
Fled while I as yet could see,
Dimly, how the end would be;
Ere the knight had laid Uio corse
GenUy on his own war-horse,
And had pass'd adown the dell
To a holy hermit’s cell;
Ere the hermit's cares had shewn
Life, in truUi, was not yet flown,—
’elf fast,

Dear Seri—l feel It my duly to inform you of whstis
most evident in thi* quarter—a determination on the pan
of a great majority of our Stock-holders, to decUnc ex
tending the aid wliich the Board of Directors at first
thougiit they would give. Many worm friend* of your en-
t» rprivto when .you were hero, have been to me to say, that
the engagements of the Company—extending to the pur
chase of over 8,000 tons of Rails—utterly preclude all aid
to you for the present. I ain satisfied that if your appli
cation is presented In April, the majority against it will be
very large. I ask you under these circumstances to with-
praw ihc application. Perhaps at n future day, circum
stances may occur, which might induce tho aid now
withheld from necessity, and not from any want of Inter
est in your Bond.
I believe oil persons here sincerely desire your success.
