The harp that sang “the Summer Row*,” In strain*, so sweetly and so well, That, soft as dews at evening’s close, Tile pure and liquid numbers fell, Is hushed and shattered ! now, no more Its silvery chords their music ix>ur: But. crushed by an untimely blow, Both harp and flower in dust lie low ! The bard'—alas, l knew him well! A noble, generous, gentle heart, Which, as his brave hand struck the shell, Poured feeling through the vein* of Art. What radiant beauty round his lyre ! Pure as his loved ltulinn fire ! lie caught the sweetest beams of rhyme.— The Tasso of our Western dime! Nor this alone: a loftier power. That shone in hulls of High Decree, And swayed the feelings cl the hour, As summer winds, the rippled sea,— Bright eloquence ! to him was given : The spark, the Prophet drew* from Heaven! It touched Ins lips with patriot flame, And shed a halo ’round hi* name! As lat** I saw, I see’ him now! His stalwart from, his graceful mien, liis long, while locks, his smiling brow, His eye* benignant and serene ! How pleasant ’round the social hearth, When listening to histones of mirth ! What lessons of the good and true, r l he brave, the beauiilul, he drew 1 Droop down thy willows, Southern land’ Thy bard, thine orator, Is dead. He sleegs where broad magnolias stand, With “Summer roses,” o’er liis head! The lordly River,sweeping hy, Curves ’round his grave, with solemn sigh, And,from yon twinklingornnjre stem, ‘1 he “Meek-Bird” pours hi 9 requiem ! Bard of the South !—the * Summer Rose” May perish with the* Autumn leaf,” The “footprints left on Tampa's” shores May vam.-di with a date us brief: But thine shall be the “life” of fame, No winter winds can wreck thy name ; And future minstrels shall rehearse Thy virtues, in memorial verse! MISCELANEOUS. — ■ ■- ■ ‘ A VISIT TO CHOLULA. A trip to Cholula is one of the most agrepahle jaunts around Puebla. By the road it is about h mile* distant, and you will pass over a tolerably even roud and cross a pretty little river, w hich is laid down on a map —but au ill* map ia not here. I cannot recollect it* name. This fashion we (ahem!) tourists have of noting down names and incidents plays hob with one’s memory in general. About a week since Generals Scott, Twiggs and Shields, with nn escort of dragoons nnd the 2d and 7th 1 infantry, made an excursion to the site of the ancient I Aztec city, and I joined it. About two miles from Pu ebla a laughable incident occurred, though it well nigh ended in a tragedy. The infantry was ascending an easy slope, when two Mexicans came along with a pow erful bull, which one oi them held by n lasso over the horns, while the other urged him along with a good.— The animal became restive as die soldier* passed, and finally, breaking away from those who held him, charg ed the left tlank, carrying a soldier through tin* ranks on his horns, and landing him in the mud on the op posite side ol the read. The two men finally got hold of the lasso when four of us civilians came along on hor ses. Then he began to plunge ami paw the ground, and one of the Mexicans who got in front of the beast to fe at him still, was tossed clear over the bull’s back. The infuriated creature then Ditched into die other, und throwing him in about two feet of mud and water, go red and ducked him for several seconds. All the horee men rode up and succeeded in driving the animal irom Ins prey, when he turned and put after us, more furious than ever. As we had no arms, and did not choose to hav - our hone* ruined, there was some pretty “tall walking” for a short distance. The animal ran down j tire column nil near tl** head of the 7th regiment, and tlx* n ciiargcd again, makingn pretty wide breach in the ranks. After .*Hlieiyin|’ Uimrcit ihn* 7ti *.. no ! where” when he whs about, h** made a rush on the 2d. [ The boys find time to fix their bayonets, however, and n.. i r .riend ■ 1 coolly, matjaltu r. cciVi..£ five *,r ux bayonet wounds he hauled off and gave up the Imtlie In n few moments I saw him lassoed by a horseman and pulled along towards the city, bleeding profusely and looking quit* crest fallen. He had evidently been de ceived m life first charge, and seeing no bayonets, pro bably did not reckon on finding any on his second splurge. But he can (if the butchers have not killed him, which I strongly suspect,) console himself with the fact that he made more consternation among two regiments of U. S. Infantry than a thousand two leg ged Mexicans could have done. We met with no oilier interruption on our march— On both sides the land was well tilled and covered with corn in every stage, from the young sprout to the full ripe seed, tomatoes, {kippers, etc. Ou one fine haci enda some iix 11 were ploughing, and firodt- out to see them. The plough in use here i* scarcely a degree ahead of that used by the Arabians, andean only fa* of any effect in soft ground, being made entirely ol w ood. It ts drawn by oxen, which are goaded by a pike set ill tbe end of a long pole. The .Mexican holds his plough with one hand, and with the other stirs up the animals. At the river the troops had Mopped to wait for the Generals and escort, nnd three friends and myself gal loped on the pyramid, wtuch we aara-nded mounted, and there had a fine view of the advancing column.— All the Mexicans ran away to hear the drums, (a Mex ican will follow a single drum all day to hear th** mu sic,; and left us 111 possession ot pyramid, chapel, pulque, and all. W e made the best of the room left us before the arrival of the troops, ascended the tower of the church, examined the structure of the pyramid, Ac.— in halt an hour the whole party were assembled in the little square fronting the church, the band {flaying mu sic such as had never before echoed among the rums of Cholula. Os all the tunes played, the inhabitants reem ed most pleased with “ Yankee Doodle,” probably from its lively nuture. We were soon completely run down by Indians, who brought iruil, bread, Ac., from the market in the plaza below, and specimens of ancient {lottery, broken idols, Ac At first these curiosities were sold very cheap, but finding that we all wanted them, the rascal* raised the price from one or two tla co’* to one and two rials, winch very soon ruined the business, us they held on their wares and we to our mo- irey. Cholula, at this day, presents little to attract*the at ten'ion or ciuuu the adinnaiion of the traveller. Its great pyramid still stands, and it will stand a dozen centunes Irereafier, 111 ar good preservation as now Young tn*e* have overgrown ii* sides, aml the sun dried brick* of which it is composed, have become a perfect solid. lis dimensions (1 quote llumlvoldt) are, “bas** 1440 feet, present height I*9, area on the sum mit 45,210 ” Tune and the heavy rums have conside rably changed its genera! appearance, and it is ditfi- Cttit to discern the different stories or *te|>s, of which ilk re are three. The first of these 1* a large broad plat form, extending six or eight >urds 011 either side fur ther than 1 Ire square mass winch sup|k>ried the temple of the Indians, ami now lire Catholic chapel. The se cond plattorui is hardly disceniable. The historv of this pyramid varies with every book on Mexico, but I believe Brnntz Mnyer's account to teas lien r the truth as any that has been written.—Be fore the floral, tradition has it, this valley was inhabited by grunts. Alter the great drown, and some i4K)vear* alter theerentiou, one of these giants, called th Arch itect, c.mst'd aj. n - at number of bricks to lie made, and commenced building a pyramid, placing men, in files to pass along tin* bricks, in the fame muiuier that fire bu lo ts are passed nt a conilugrition m a small village, lie had progressed very well, until one fine day the Great spirit sent down fire, killed the workmen, and put a veto on tire pyramid. From this time we iu ar no more of (lie Giant, and 1 *uppdm* lie was burned up with his workmen. Some time after this a great proph et came to Ulu lulfi, who, from bring able to cause ram to fall and do other miraculous things, wnschosen king of Analiunc. It is said that under in* reign, corn grew *0 large that a man had trouble to carry one eur, and oilier grain, and all munirer of fruit grew in *imi lu< enormous proportion*. Aftrrwvcrnl year*residence this great anti good prophet removed to tire south and died The pyramid was llk'ii la-gun anew and com pleted, and dedicated to tin*great prophet, whose name 1 lit “k was i/.ai oath, or lie “Godof air * Tlicr* was a temple ou lire top where Indian* were *ncrdiced to lire idols, and papas, or priesta in great numbcrsof ficinted there. It was here that tire plot was formed against Cortez mid fill hi# followers hy order of Montezuma, and winch was ..nly di covered by D<>tmu Marina, the interpreter, and four or live Tlaacuiau friends of the conqueror. It is hardly i* e. **nry to detail this in external. Montezu ma sent 40,000 men to lay 111 wait for Cortez, in ravines outside the city on the mud to Mexico,'and the cacique* his deep ditche* made in the streets, filled with sharp pointed stfak*. and covered over so as to deceive the Spaniards. They were also all armed and prepared wnh cord* of hide lo tic the Spaniards when Urey were defeated. The Papa* were induced to join the plot by a promise thnt twenty Spaniard* should fir given them for sacrifice The sequel i* well known. Cortez in vited the caciques and principal men into a large yard surrounded by a high wall, und ofter rebuking their treachery, a signal of one gun was given nnd the wludo were put to death—some were cut dowu, *onre shot. 1 nre f “ I, to allow tin- p*'op 1c that the *4” • lire Choluiunt. could not uid them. After none* time two thousand Tlascalan*entered the city, killed and made slave* of a great many of tire Cholulan*. and when ordered off by Cortez, retired loaded with booty.

Let him too be industrious in adorning his ! domain—in making his home, the dwelling ol’ Ins wne . a,, d children, not only convenient and comibrtable, but pleasant. Let him, os far as circumstances will permit, be industrious in surrounding it with pleasant objects— in decorating it within and without, with things that tend to make it agreable ami attractive. Let industry make home the übode of neatness and order—a place which brings satisfaction to every inmate, and which, in absence, draws back the heart by the fond associa tions of comlort and content. Let this be done, and this sacred spot will become more surely the scene of cheeifulueSß and peace. Ye imrents who would have your children happy, be industrious to bring them up in I the midst of a pleasant, a cheerful, and a happy home. Waste not your time in accumulating wealth kr them ; I but plant in iheir minds and souls, in the way proposed, I the seeds of virtue and prosperity.— Sir W. Jones The Arabian llorso. I A mum musing im,Miciit, lllusuutluu of the extract- I dinary strenghth us neli as attachment of the Arabian horses, is give : ‘> Lamartine in his bcauibul Travels in the Last: “ An Arub chief with his tribe, had attacked, in the night, a caravan ot Duma's, and plundered it; when loaded with their spoil, however, the robbers were over taken on their i elm 11 by some horsemen oi the Pacha of Acre, who killed several, and bound the remainder with cords. In (Jus state ol bondage they brought one of the prisoners, named Abou el Marck, to Acre, and iaid hwn, bound band and foot, wounded as he was, at the entrance of their tent. As they slept during the night, tire Arab, kept awake by the pain of ins wounds, heard his horse s neigh at a distance and being desirous to stroke, for the last time,the companion of his hie, lie drugged himself, hound as he was, to the horse, which was picketed at a little distance.—“ Poor Iriend,” said lie,“what will >ou do among the Turks I You will be shut up under the roof of a kahn, with the horses of a pacha or an aga ; no longer will you cleave with your bosom the writer of the Jordan, which cools your sides, as pure as the loam of your lips. If lam to he t slave, at least may yon go free. Go—return to our tent which you know so well; tell my wife that Abou el Maick will return no more ; but put your head still into the tolds of the tent, lick tlie liands of my beloved children.” With these words, as hie hands were tied, lie untied with hi* teeth the letter* which held the couser bound, and set him at liberty; but the noble animal, on recovering its freedom, instead o! bounding away to the deae. t, bent its head over its master, and seeing him in letters on the ground, took his clothes gen y !y in his teeth, lifted him up and set olf at full speed towards home.

It is n matter of some practical importance to those who deul with bees, to knowhow many can be mailc to live in a single hive at a time. The position taken by Mr. lauhrop was that a hive never contains above n speeiiieii number, however Urge the house iii which they were kept,or great the leugtb ol time they remain in it. That this is true will appear by a stan ineM of the habits of the bee in respect to procreation and length of tile, as they tuive hren oiweived by the best apiarians and students ul natural lustory. Tlie mother of all tiie bees in a hive it a single indi vidual, known as the queen bee. She is the only ptr/ect female in tint hive ; for though lite working Uses are ail females, their procreative powers are not developed I Anoihrf htinuie beside the one will not be tolerated in the hive, fur wherever two are lound together, they im mediately engage ill mortal eoiiibat.and one dies.
