THE OCEAN GRAVE.

Bury me deep—bury me deep,
Fathoms deep in the sea !
And let_me sleep my last long sleep
Under the waters free.

With the billows sounding o'er me,
With the music of their strife—
With the ocean caves before me,
With their worlds of treasure rife.

With the coral and the amber,
With the pearls around me strewed—
In my richly furnished chamber—
In my mighty solitude

Let no narrow coffin bound me,
No dim vaults their prisoner keep;
Let the billows dash around me,
And the mermaids o'er me weep.

Let me not rest where yew-trees reign,
Let no cypress o'er me wave—
But let the rushing hurricane
Sweep o'er my ocean grave

Thus would I sloop—thus would I sleep
Under the waters free,
My pall should be the foaming deep,
And my sepulchre—the sea

a very handsome appearance, the pad cloths being of
rich gold colour, to match the hammer-cloth, and edged
with gold lace.
Some people seem to consider the severity of their
censures on .the errors of others as an atonement for
their own.—Eliza Cook's Journal.

THE HOP FLY.—Mr. Bromley, a recent writer,
confirms the observation that the hop fly is produced in
spring on the sloe bushes, from which it migrates to the
hop, but dissents from the suggestion of Mr. Spence
(contained in an address to the Entomological Society in
January last, " which has been much circulated in the hop
districts"), that it is only necessary to destroy the sloe
trees in order to secure the hop from the attacks of this
insect, asserting that its eggs have also been found on
the plum, and that if all the sloe trees were destroyed,
the insect would resort to some other allied species
of tree.

BAL-MASQUE AT VAUXHALL GARDENS.—The last
masquerade ball of the season took place at Vauxhall
Gardens yesterday evening, and proved in no respect in-
ferior to the series of public entertainments of a similar
kind which have preceded it. Notwithstanding the
deserted state of town, and the amount of sickness and
alarm which has recently existed, the pleasure-seekers
poured into the gardens in great numbers as soon as the
doors were opened, and up to a late hour there appeared
no sign of a check to the spirit with which the amuse-
ments were kept up. There was the usual display of
masks, dominoes, and fancy and character costumes ,
and, as a further recommendation to the proceedings, •;
should be mentioned that amivnditbdssetedtgtherfeluolreeratlo,motley throng- thel

The War Minister, General BAVA, has issued an
order of the day to the army, in which he says the
unmerited hard fortune of war had not diminished the
high respect universally felt for the Sardinian army,
but had proved the necessity for much reform.
The Statuto of Florence publishes the following
letter, dated Rome, 15th inst. :—" M. DE CORCELLES
has not yet arrived, but he is every moment expected.
Gen. ROSTOLAN, in consequence of orders received
from Paris, made great efforts yesterday to oblige the
three Cardinals to publish the letter of the PRESIDENT
of the Republic. Their Eminences resisted as long as
they could, but were at last forced to promise that
the letter should appear in the Osservatore Romano.
By this means they gained a respite; but
ROSTOLAN, not seeing the letter published
to-day, has returned to the charge and been an-
swered that the letter should be published this very
day. Still their Eminences nourish some hopes of
getting out of the dilemma, and of DE CORCELLES
consenting to take the non-execution of the order
upon his own responsibility. The conflict between
the French and Pontifical authorities continues."
The Giornale di Roma of the 14th publishes the
official returns of the wounded who entered the
hospitals from the Ist of May to the 30th of June.
The numbers are as follows :—Romans, 136 ; subjects
of the Roman provinces, 543 ; Italians from different,
states, 322 ; foreigners, 41 ; country unknown, 256 ;
total, 1:298.

THE UNITED STATES.

ARRIVAL OF THE CALEDONIA.
(BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.)
LIVERPOOL, TUESDAY.—The Royal Mail steam-
ship Caledonia has just arrived in our river, and
brings one week's later advises from the United
States, the Canadas, and the other British North
American possessions.
The Caledonia left Boston on the 12th instant, and
made a short call at Halifax, to receive mails and
passengers, of the latter of which she has brought
over a large number.
We hare by this arrival intelligence of the arrival
out of the Niagara at New York, and of the Europa
(which sailed hence on the Ist instant) at Halifax, on
her way to Boston.
The news is not of much importance. The Great
Western arrived at New York on the Bth instant,
having left Bermuda on the sth.
The Earl of Elgin has left Montreal for Niagara.
American politics are just now rather flat, and
were expected to continue so until the approaching
election. That for Michigen, in November (for a
senator of which state General Cass proposes him-
self), promises to be the most interesting. The
free-soilers and whigs will pull better together here,
it is expected, than in other parts of the Union, and,
it is possible, may carry their candidate for governor,
Mr. Littlejohn. The citizens of the state have lat-
terly taken a liberal view of the Wilmot proviso,
which they are now inclined to support.
The cholera has so far abated that in the majority
of places the returns were not published. It has
prevailed, however, to some extent during the week
in Boston, Albany, Washington, &c. In Birming-
ham, a suburb of Pittsburg, the mortality during the
visit of the disease had been felt most severely by the
German population, the deaths being at least 90 per
cent. amongst them. In New York it may be said
to have almost ceased.
Mass conventions of both sections of the democracy
have been, or will be held shortly in Monroe, Onon-
daga, 'Washington, Westchester, and other places, to
effect a union of organisation for the fall campaign.
A convention of the coloured inhabitants of Con-
necticut bad been held on the 12th instant, to con-
sider their political condition. They prefer having
the right of suffrage to their present exemption from
suffrage.
A national convention is to be held in St. Louis
on the 15th of October, to consider the erection of a
railroad and electric telegraph to the Pacific. Dele-
gates are expected from every state and territory in
the Union.
The reports from the cotton districts are, we regret
to say, still more unfavourable than any before received
