sonnet to HObOken.

Blest spot where nature placed her richest SEAL
Engraved by beauty touch, as if she'd seem
To trace q lovely picture in a cam,
Fraught with more charms than waking art can feel
Thou art a bower. by gentle waves caressed,
Where the worn spirit finds a soothing rest
And far removed from scenes of busy strife,
Along thy peaceful groves and lesfy dells,
Draws in pure streams Of renovated life
And owns the influence OF thy tranquil spells.
All wise and bounteous. thus the Creators hand
Has spread his blessings DER this favored land;
Near to the crowded cty's reeking streets
He plants, sweet Hoboken, thy cool retreats

We regret 10 learn the death Of
Maj. J. Il. Ransom, near the Waco
Village. lie came to his death by the
accidental discharge Of his own gun
while in buffalow chase. Maj. II.
was gentleman of fine literary at

to treat with the different tribes Of
Indians.
Col. Pierce, Mr.. Butler, with some
twenty men from the United States,
had arrived at the Waco Village, for
the purpose Of taking part in the
grand conference. This Waco Viii
lage is situated near the Falls Of the
Brazaos, and in the heart of a fertile
country Astounding with buffalo and
every species of game.
Judge Robinson states that Santa
Anna has promised to release Mr..

of San Antonio, now confined at Pc.

al favor. The latter, we believe, is
a relative Of Gan. 4. 1t is also
thought that Judge Hutchinson will
also be released speedily. and we
believe that, one by one, all the San
An,onso, prisoners viii find thoir way
home. Were it not contrary TO Mex
lean policy, TO do any thing in 2 hur-
ry, Santa Anna would have released
these men long ago.-Pieayune.
