shall attempt but slight descrip-
ton of this great wonder of nature--ma'
ny deem it far superior as an object OF
curiosity to the Falls of Niagara. The
entrance is some so feet in width by 40
in height, with level surface. The
main Cave continues nearl y thus for five
or six miles. Ore hundred and sixty
nine avenues branch off from the main
Cave, which vary from fourth of a mile
to seven miles in length. The guides
compute the whole distance traversed in
these avenues to amount to three hun
dred mites. This seems almost incred-
ible., But as | passed through the Cave
in various directions for IL or IS miles,
| saw enough to convince me. that the
exaggeration is not great. One avenue
passes over ravine in the rocks s fee;
wide and 100 feet deep. Traces of In.
dams have been found in various places
but none beyond this ravine, beyond
which, indeed, it was thought impossible
to 60, TIL 4 or s years since, when tn.
guide Stephen, "a coIored man) passed

A DREAM OF CHILDHOOD.

A DREAM OF CHiLDHOoD.
dreamed that childhood had returned;
And Oh! 'twas sweet to roam
Though howery meads, and oFche"
groves
That skirt my lowland home.
Again chased the butterfly.
And pluckee. the heather bell
And wove ilowery coronal
For enc who loved me we'll.
Again. with bounding step, | ran,
And placed it on his brow;
Again to the heart was pressed
That's cold and silent now.
/ saw with JOY the mild eye beam
That never looked unklnd;
But with parents fondness still
To all my faults was blind.
sly dream then changed; yet still was
That parent shope and pride; ,'-
Though Stern realities Of life
Forced childhood joys aside,
lived in memory. DER again,
With bitter tears and signs,
The hour when far from home and friend
closed his dying eyes.
Fen in that hour of dread and death,
How placidly he smiled;
And left a lasting legacy
His blessing for his child.
With agonzins start woke,
To feel life's every ILL;
Yet mid mistortune's whitening blast,
hear THAT blessing still:
And echo seems where'er | rove
In silIed hall7or bower,
10 greet me with the voice of love
heard in that lone hour;
A CLEAN of bliss amid the gloom
Ofsorfow's solitude;
A tailsmafi to draw my thoughts
Where vice dares not intrude.
1t oft has checked my wild career
When borne on PASSIONS wind,
For oh. parents blessingls
A sweet, holy thing!
In fancy, oft follow on
That faint, sweet voice of love.
Till, leaving earth and earthly cares,
soar to realms above;
And scenes of dazzling brightness rush,
On my bewlldered sight:
lily spirit feels the Godhead there,
In majesty add might.
And sounds seraphlc greet mine ear,
And heavenly anthems swell:
There, mid the choir, his voice hear
Who loved me long and well;
RAnd as the song of praise is raised,
In cadence sweet and mild,
Again the passing spirit says:
ALMIGHTY. bless my child!'
