HAMBBA,
Whose heart dots not thrill with
pleasure when thoughts of the Al
hambra cross his miud ? The gifted
Irving has done much to untold its
shadowy clouds and allow ihe sun
light of its past to beam out again.
Our heart-chords vibrate with music
all their own as the spirit goes back '
to the time when dim old Spain was j the moonlight as of old.
| the tones of yore through hill and
dale, as in the palmiest days of Alham
bra. The graceful Zambra should
once more keep time to the laughter
of castanets; sweet young mirthful
voices should echo through tire richly
gilded apartments, and lofty chanda-
liers shed the same mellow rays that
once tell on the face of fair Elizabetta.
Festoons of fairest flowers should be
wreathed round the graceful columns,
and the spray of fountains glitter in

all sunshine and flowers—when the
soul of honour wreathed its crown
around the point of a lance, and love
and duty mingled their breath with
gleams caught from silken banners.
Ah! those were the days when man
hood’s better nature bowed at the
shrine of genius, love, and chivalry!
What a change has come o’er the
spirit of our dreams! AW, it seems
we prefer the tinkling music of gold
dollars to the sweetest voice ever
heard, and the flash of diamouds to
the brightest eyes the world ever saw!
The other day we came across the
fragments of a twilight dream—a
dream of the “long^ ago”—and it
brought Irving’s Alhambra to our
thoughts. It is evidently a woman
writing, for it wants strength. But
woman is the heart of man, and why
not allow the heart to speak? It
blends delicate touches and poetic
imagination with all a woman’s en
thusiastic admiration for the truly
noble and chivalric; and the thoughts
seem to have been caused by looking
at a small piece of Moorish plastering
from the Alhambra :
‘ “Lonely and atill are now tliy marble halls,
Thou fair AUmmbru! There the feast is o’er.
And with the muiuiur of thy fountain full*
Blend the wild tones of miustreh-y no more.'’
Mrs. IIemaxs.

It is but a small piece of plaster,
covered with singular Arabic charac
ters, on which has accumulated the
dust of ages, yet how swiftly it bears
me, over mountain and valley, to the
land of chivalry and poetry !
Already I am wandering over that
magnificent pile of oriental grandeur,
with which the legends and traditions
of a thousand years are associated «•
which the pen of Irving has
talized. The 4 ’endoqr -

iiiu^x.*-. iv mournfully, as if wailing
for glories past. The great Alhambra
towers above in solitary grandeur, “an
oriental palace amidst the Gothic ed
ifices of the West, an elegant memen
to of a brave, intelligent, and graceful
people, who conquered, ruled, flour
ished, and passed away.” And this
ruin, beautilul in its desolation, is all
that remains to tell us of the refined
Morisco Spaniards, who, exiled from
their beauteous homes, here sought
refuge and erected lor their heroic
kings a palace of unrivalled splendour
and magnificence.
I am in the Hall of Ambassadors,
from which this piece of plastering
was procured, and the lofty arched
roof above, beautifully stuccoed and
ornamented with arabesques of cedar
and vermillion, inspire my soul with
awe and reverence; for where are the
proud monarchs who held council here
centuries and centuries ago?
A decorated portal forms the en
trance into another spacious apart
ment, and here I almost fear to stand,
lest a bloody apparition of one of the
murdered Abencerrages should rise,
and repeat in hollow whispers the wild
story of treachery and heartless cruel
ty that has so often clothed with fright
the dreams of my childhood. There
stood the sumptuously-prepared table,
laden with viands and tropical fruits,
by which the unsuspecting race was j
destroyed. One by oue, as they ap-'
proached the festival, were slaughtered
But alas!
“Those days are past; the crescent on thy shore,
O realm of evening! sets to rise no more! ”
Never again will they return; and
we wake from the glittering dream to
find but a remnant of that splendour,
the home of romance and tradition, ol
which the ancient minstrels sung.—
Hushed are the voices that once echoed
iD those marble halls. No more the
ponderous bell o*‘ Alhambra chimes a
vesper call; and naught is heard save
the falling waters in subterranean chan
nels, which, in such stillness, but adds
to the awful gloom. Moonlight tran
quilly sleeps on the winding Darro,
converting its waves iuto carvings of
silver; and the towering Sierra Nevada
gazes proudly, thoigli sadly, on the
ivy-clad monument below, which seems
to stand under the spell of some en
chantment, to tell future generations of
its better days. Never will the orient
al pile be destroyed, says tradition, till
the giant hand on the arched gateway
reaches down to grasp the iron key.
Then all will crumble to dust!
Far below me music is pouring its
echoes on the fragrant air, and scarcely
perceptible in the moonlight is a
band of Andalusian peasants. Their
shadowy forms are arrayed in holiday
attire, and it being midsummer’s night.

To the People of the United States :
Dangers threaten. The constitu
tion. the citadel of our liberties, is di
rectly assailed. The future is dark,
unless the people will come to the res
cue. In this hour of peril national
union should be the watchword of ev
ery true man. As essential to nation
al union we must maintain unimpair
ed the rights, the dignity and the
equality of the States, including the
right of representation in Congress
and the exclusive right of each State
to control its own domestic concerns,
subject, only to the constitution of the
United States. After a uniform con
struction of the constitution for more
than a half century the assumption ot
new and arbitrary powers in the Fed
eral government is subversive of our
system and destructive of liberty. A
free interchange of opinion and kind
feeling between the citizens of all the
States is necessary to the prosperity
of the Union. At present eleven
States are excluded from the national
council. For seven long months the
present Congress has persistently de
nied any righc of representation to the
people of those States. Laws affect
ing their highest and dearest interest
have been passed without their con
sent and in disregard of the fundamen
tal principle of free government.—
This denial of representation has been
made to all the members from a
State, although the State, in the lan
guage of the President, “presents it
self not ouly in an attitude of loyalty
and harmony, but in the person ot rep
resentatives whose h.}alty cannot be
questioned under any existing consti
tutional or legal test.” The repre-

chantment. Under its plastic sway j tempts to deprive them of their true, g
contracts to serve ices for a specified
number of guests; consequently it is
his interest to deal it out in as small
portions as possible; and as no lady
likes to ask for more, a teaspoonful is
usually her allowance. The supper
is served about 1 o’clock, and is al
ways cold. There will be cold chick
en and ham and tongue, lobster, salad
ami pates, game birds with plumage
on, raised game pies, ornamented cakes
for show merely, a poor allowance of
fruit, End champagne and other wines.
Oysters are never served cooked, nor
is there any ice-cream. Altogether,
the entertainment would be laughed at
by a hungry New Yorker, though the
tables are made pretty with flowers
ami wax candles. Gas light is thought
underbred, and so is a young lady’s
ever walking alone io the street, even
in the day time. Young girls are kept
in such tight leading strings they are
glad to be married. It is amusing to
hear the English talk of “Americans
Attacking and demolishing a supper.”
The viands here do not blunt the edge
of appetite. What is the delicate
wing of a small cold chicken to peo
ple who have danced nearly all night?

and are worthy ot this mission. Have
also confidence in me, and be assured
that on my parti will-exert my best
efforts to bring this campaign to a

are now faced by inimical forces, com

partly of Landwehr. The first com

stroll over the beautiful gardens ot
Lindaraxis, the Zegri princess. Here
fragrant oranges, myrtles, and citrous
gracefully bend to catch the whisper
ings of an alabaster fountain, as it still
repeats in musical murmurs a tale of
the young maiden’s love. O! this is
indeed a scene of beauty and enchant
ment ! How my spirit sighs for the
gift of poesy—“The rarest, fairest
flower to mortals that I might
cause other hear«TTo thrill like mine,
under the holy influence of this magic
spell. How I Would paint those days
ot chivalry and romance, and weave, in
“verse of musical flow’,” wild legends
of gallant knights whoso life-blood
crimsoned the swift-gliding Darro.
Or, were I a fairy, the Harp of Ages,
which has so long slumbered in silence
on tbe moss-grown tomb of departed
Glory, should be touched, awakening
stands" like some huge spirit evoked
from the chambers of past magnifi
cence, or like an imaginary chateau—
“The abode of beings all unknown—
Powerless and viewless children of the air.’
The great God of nature, who never
sleepeth, alone watches over its slum
bering halls, and awe indescribable is
reigning supreme.
My spirit, as it wiDgs its way be
neath tbe bright-hued skies of imagin
ation,' breathes a low, sad farewell to
this land of enchantment.
“My dream is o’er! The vision fades
Down sinks the phantom train,
Beneath the rocky, haunted glades
Of song-awakening Spain.
Its moonlit streamlets gently wind
O'er mountains wild and tree ;
music still some heart may bind,
Though all is hushed to me.
Albanibra’s fair and dreamy bowers
To me sweet legends tell;
But I must leave them! Land of flowers 1
Proud Granada 1 farewell! ” ’
Viator.
