BY THE LATE MRS. JAMES GRAY
O,for one hour OF rest Would could feel
A quiet, dreamless slumber falling on me,
And vet be conscious that my strong appeal
To Heaven for mercy had that blessing won me!
How could love 10 know each limb was still
To have no sense except that was sleeping,
To feel had no memory OF past ill.,
No vision iinged with smile or weeping
Vain yearnng Ever since the spirit came
Into the bondage of this mortal frame
II hath been restless, sleepless, unsubdued,
And ne'er hath known a moments quietude ?
How have cour,cd rcs,-rest for my soul
Flung by my books and cas-, my pen away,
And said, "No weary wave OF thought shall roll.
To lift my spirit from lis calm today
Then have gone into the dim, green wood,
And laid me down upon the messy earth;
And straight thousand shapes have risen and
stood
Around me, telling me they took their birth
From my own soul and then iarewellto rest
For il they're fair woe them 10 my breast,
And if they're dark they force them on my sight,
Standing between my spirit and the light.
And have gone, in the sill twilight hour,
And safe beneath The lindens, while the bee
Was murmuring happily in some near flower;
But then could not rest for ecstasy,
And have lain where the wide ocean heaveth /;
Blu, here no quiet sleeps my ieverished head,
For many buried image my heart giveth
AT The low, spell-like moaning OF the main,
Like that great sea delivering her dead.

When my eye closeih, fit thousand dreams,
Like insects lowering DER Swallowed streams
Alas there is no res, for one whose heart

Who hath in every blossoms life part,
And for each leaf that Autumn scare,h, weep

In stating, as We did in Thursday paper, thai
the South, on the Oregon question, would assume
as determined tone in council and as vigorous
conduct in action as we wonld look Tor from
The West itself, we did mol expect 10 find 50 ear
" confirmation OF the assertion. The South
Caroinian, as We find il quoted in the Consii,u-
tion says:
ave OF the South ale as ultra upon the sub
ject OF Oregon, and as tenacious of every inch
OF our claim 10 that country, as the most rabid
OF the Locotocos OF the North; and, should The
country become involved in a war TO sustain our
claim, Mr.. Polk will find himself as warmly and
heartily sustained by the South as BY any other
portion OF the Union. Our Northern brethren
mistake rs widely if they suppose that any party
animosities, or domestic differences, could make
us backward in responding 10 a call 10 sustain
our country in war with a foreign foe Such
course might be expected from cool, calculal-
ing. interested, Blue. Light Hartford Convention
Federals,, but ii has never been the course OF the
South 10 desert the Government, or TO render il a
lukewarm support in the hour OF danger from
the attack OF q foreign enemy

LINES,
On hearing Of The Illness Of General Jackson
BY THEoposIA II. CUMMINGS.
Hero! art thou lying low,
Pain and sickness onlhy brow
Let it consolation De,
That nation grieves for Mee!!
They, for whom in battles strife
Thou hast freely perilled life
Now unite f'r thee their prayers
Fain would purchase thine with theirs!
Great and good! Beloved revered!
To thy country long endeared-
We must weep, that thou should'st know
Aught OF pain or mortal woe.
Yet, we hear a cheering voice
Bid us, mid our tears, rejoice
For the heavenly hopes that shed
Holy radiance round thy head.
Thou, who, mid The things of Time,
Sought portion more sublime.
Glory's wreath SHAH but lay down
For an everlasting crown!
Sweelly may Thy spiri, rest
On the Sayiours loving breast,
Till, the parting signal given,
Thou shalt change this earth for Heaven!
