WINTER IN THE COUNTRY.


o NOT alone for human gaze
Doth Nature put her glor;es on,
Or clasps, for its poor need Of praise,
The brilliants round her radiant zone.
In loveliest depths Of forest green.
Our blue Atlantic's foaming crest
And isles of light through distance dim,
Her magic smile il ioveliest
Round Andes cloud.encircled nights,
And verdant crags Of Ecuador,
Through Greenland's clear and frosty night.
And icy wastes of Labrador;
Where day mid gathering dreams reclines
On Oregous fair virgin breast,
AS softly stoop her breezy pines
Der the calm waters Of the West:
Majestic mid their soltudes
Her spirit lights their wilds afar;
And DER each cliff. and covert rude,
She hangs her elearest, heavenliest star.
Sweet Nature, still my spirit pours
Its freshest offerings round thy shrine.
And strong in thee unfaltering scars
To lose itself in the divine !
o let my throbbing pulse be still,
While thus my heart lies warm to thine,
It's feverish hopes, its struggling will,
On thy calm bosom I resign!

THE MEXICAN WAR


The following speculations, from one Of the most
enlightened of the Democratic journals which sup
port the measures of the Administration, cannot fail
to interest our readers at the present moment
N to expect the demonstration Of strength
which the United States have made the Rio Gnde should
discourage the Mexican Govemmenin the further prosecution
of the war; and lead them to accept envoy from our Go
venment the will have been brought speedy and
tunate termination We earnestly hope that this will be the
result both for the interest of the nations concerned and
for the interest Of humanity On the other hand should the
animosy Of the Mexican population towards this country
incline their Government TO immediate accommodation the
close Of the may be adjourned to very distant day We
incline to believe that the win either be very short
very long
"The temper Of the native Mexicans consisting
mostly Of nborgnes Of mixed breeds with large infusion
Of original blood, is that Of logged endurance. The nation
has for haass plumber the productions
Of the country suffice for their imperfect Of civilization
they have magazines Of provision for invader seize
and II they deliberately adopt the policy of attempting
to weary out with that Of flying and desuory host
ties which in their language called by the term guerilla
may have war Of long duration before u.s."

THE MEXICAN WAR.-PURPOSES OF THE
ADMINISTRATION.


The following more than sem-oHicial disclosure
OF the views and purposes Of the Administration in
its war with Mexico is SO frank and full, that the
Public, to be enabled to make up its opinion Of
their merits, requires only to know, in addition,
from the same authority, sohat il is, the part Of
the Mexican Republic, that the Executive would
consider as manifesting /" sense Of JUSTICE
FROM "THE UNION" OF YESTERDAY moRsIsG.
The New York Albion invokes all the friends Of
peace to exert their best efforts for its preservation
1t thinks the danger imminent We sympathize in
our wishes with the Albion. We, too, deprecate
any war between Great Britain and the United
States, and we invoke as sincerely as it does the
blessings Of peace between the two nations. But
why does it indulge any fears at this momentl
Why suppose that the call for fifty thousand volun-
teers points to war with England? We mean to
conduct the war against Mexico with all the vigor
in our power. We may want twenty-five thousand
volunteers, or even more, to strike such blow as
may compel her to make peace. NE shall iaUade
her territory; zoe shall seize her sfronghoids we
shall TAKE EVEN HER CAPITAL, if there be no other
means Of bringing her to sense Of justice. We
may want fifty thousand volunteers, not against
England, but for the Mexican war. Why need the
Albion, then, attribute our military energy to any
covert design of waging war against England!

NATIONAL. FAIR

The public interest in this grand Exhibition con-
tinues with SO little abatement, that we doubt
whether it will be entirely satisfied, far less satia-
ted, at the proposed termination Of it, though
now extended to Wednesday next; we are
quite convinced that two Of our columns closely
printed daily for the next fortnight could not con-
tain all that we could say, and which we feel we
ought to say, respecting it. But we do not doubt
that the Managers have abundant reasons for the
course which they have adopted; to whom, by the
way, great credit is due for the exertions which
they have used, and the arrangements which they
have made, for the management Of the fair.

The Washington Correspondent of the Journal
Of Commerce, whose sources of information are
supposed to be entitled to some confidence writes,
under date of May 25th, as follows:
"An invasion from different points at the same
time, the forces all aiming at the city of Mexico,
has been talked Of. A distinguished officer of the
army has, it is said, given it as his opinion that
force of hundred thousand men will be necessary
for the object From Tampico 10 the city Of
Mexico the distance is short of two hundred miles
"by direct route, and the route is perfectly prac-
/" ticable.
sIn the mean time the Government have taken a
step which is quite as decided and important as
march to the Mexican capital. The American
" squadron, under Commodore Stockton, have or
ders to take possession Of st. Francisco and Mon
terey, and to hold those places against all oppo-
siton. | know this 10 be fact"
