The following article from the pen oil a
gentleman of our acquaintance, who is
now on a visit to the remote regions adj
jacent to the Rocky Mountains, we cor
daily commend to the attention of the
public. The facts therein detailed are
well authenticated. The information is
of importance to the whole Union. And
those Of our fellow citizens who conem-
plate migrating to California, would do
we'll to give it an attentive and serious pc
rusal. By so doing, they will be able to
discover that we have within our 0Icn ma
tional limits, vast tracts of unoccupled
country, equally, if not more inviting, III
every sense Of the word, to the adventur-
Gus emigrant, than any found in the Mex
lean states, or even the world.
We hope Congress will take the matter
in hand, and adopt some measure, the
tendency of which will be to encourage
the influx Of settlers to that interesting
Territory west Of The Rocky Mountains.

Arc these the ancient holy hills
Where angels walked Of Old
Is this the land our story fills
With glory not yet cold
For have passed by many a shrine
Der many lGld aud sea,
But still, oh promised Palestine,
My dreams have been of thee.
see thy mountain cedars green,
Thy valleys lrcsh and fair,
With summers bright a3 they have been
When Israel's home was there.
Tho DER thee sword and time have past,
And Cross and Crescent shonc,
And heavily the chain hath prcst,
But thou art still our own!
Thine are the wandering race thatgo
Unhest through every land,
Whose blood hath stained the polar snow,
And qucnchcd the desert sand
And thine the homeless hearts that turn
From all carth's shrines to thee,
With their lone faith for ages borne
ln.slccplcss memory.
For thrones are fallen, and nations gonc,
Before the march of time,
. And where the ocean rolled alone
Are forests in their prime,
Since Gentle Ploushsharcs 7narred the brow
OF lions holy hill,--
Where are the Roman eagles now !
Yet judah wanIcrs still.
And hath she wandered thus in vain
\ pilgrim Of the pastl
No! long deferred her hopes hath been,
But it shall come at last;
For in the wastes voice ! hear,
AS from some prophets urn,
1t bids the nations build not there,
For Jacob shall return.
Oh. lost AMI loved Jeru, llan,
Thy pilgrim may not stay,
To see the glad cnrth's harvest home
In thy rcdccming day;
But now resigned in faith and trust,
| seek nameles5 tomb,
At least beneath thy halIowcd lust
o give the wandercr room.
