A MUTT IN JUNE.
BY GEORGE D. PRENTICE, ESQ
Night steals upon the world-the shades
With silent flight are sweeping down
To steep-as Day last glory fades
In tints of blue the landscape brown;
The wave breaks not-deep slumber holds
The dewey leaves-the night wind folds
Her melancholy wing-and sleep
Is forth upon the pulseless deep.
The willows mid the silent rocks
Arc brooding DER the waters mild,
Like fond mothers pendant locks,
Hung sweetly DER her sleeping child
The flowers that fringe the purple stream,
Are sinking to their evening dream,
And earth appears Il rely spot,
Where Sorrows voice awakens not.
But see such pure, such beautiful
And burning scenes awake to birth,
In yon bright depths, they render dull
The loveliest tints, that mantle dull
The Heavens are rolling blue and fair,
And the soft night-gems clustering there
Secm-as on high they breath and burn
Bright blossoms DER Days shadowy urn.
At this still hour, when starry songs
Are floating through Nights glowing noon,
How sweet to view those radiant throngs
Glitter around the throne of June!
10 see them, in the watch Of love,
Gaze from the holy heavens above,
And in their robes of brightness roam
Like angels DER the eternal dome;
Their light is on the Ocean isles,
IT'S trembling on the mountain stream,
And the far hills beneath their smiles
Seem creatures of blessed dream
Upon the deep their glory lies,
AS if untreasured from the skies,
And comes soft flashing from its waves,
Like sea-gems from their sparry caves!
-
Why gaze | thus It's worse than vain!
Twas here gazed in years gone by,
Ere Lite's cold winds had breathed one stain
On faucys rich and mellow sky;
| feel feel those early years
Deep thrilling through the front of tears,
And hurrying brightly, widely back,
Ger MemorY's deep and burning track!
Twas here l gazed the night-bird still
Pours lis sweet song-the starlight beams
Still tinge the flowers and forest hill,
And music gushes from the streams
But am changed, | feel no more
The sinless joys that charmed before
And the dear years so far departed
Come but to " mock the broken hearted"

virtue prevailing among the Officers, our Atnr
may yet demonstrate an honorable excentio, !,
the usual results of inactivity and dispersion 4

Ia yenturing to notice any particular instance,
Of proficiency in military discipline, inst uction !,

where every corps has presented the most sa,i.isc
tor, evidences Of military Improvement Ii may
be proper, however, to mention the first regiment
Of Infantry, the companies IF Artler, at Sa,an
nah, West Point, and New Yoik, together vii,
the troops generally at the Artillery and Infantry
Schools of Practice. The fatigue duties in which
the latter have recently engaged at the Jefferson
Barracks, have natlially operated as impeachment,
to the attainment Of polished discipline but TIER
zeal, their moral and their military devotion are
not the less apparent on this account.
Equally unaccustOmed and rfse to the prae.
tce Of awarding pro.use or ndiscrn,fate praise,
the General in Chief has sought, with no slight
scrutiny, for subjects Of anmadverslon and blame
In this review, however, he has not been able to
find a single Of delinquency or relaxation in
discipline sufficiently grave to qualify the genera
need of commentator, which he thus fell bpuni
