appeared abroad not yet republished by our own
re.producers we consider it lawful to borrow lite.
rary notice from the foreign journals but never
without due acknowledgment of the obligation
Without being exactly at that last extremity of cr
neal distress Just spoken OF, yet propose at pre-
sent to string together scattered extracts from
books, found in foreign notices of them, which are
themselves not interesting enough to be copied en-
lire. Among such are the sub oned particulars of
the true history Of him over whom most of us have
sighed in childhood as one of the heroes of i'm
prisonment-we mean FREDERICK, Baron TRENcK.

Where morning suns arise;

To dwell beneath their skies.

It's blossoms and its streams;
To wander far, where skies as clear,
Could bless with equal beams.

But love the home Of childhood more,
Its hills and smiling plain.
And when the sun in glory quits
The sky. and day is done;
IT'S of watch each star that sits,
Or fingers DER "sweet home."
There fancy paints the twilight, hill,
The house, the tree, the spring;
And chldhood's hours come DER me still,
Bright scenes TO memory bring.
And while my thoughts still loi,er here,
And ponder past time Ger,
Fond memory brings Joy and tear
For all | loved 10 yore.
So long as life shall breathe sigh,
Or friendship feel tear.
So long bless that home and sky,
And love its children dear.

And every pure and pleasant gale,
From thy long hills OF blue.

may have had provisions enough, with a
large supply for the army ahead, as was sup
posed; and yet eXtorted all that he could
raise at Jalapu TO prevent them going to the
support ofthc guerillas one object being MS
far ms possible, 20 clear the track of the guer-
llas by starvation. Ifthis were the object of
General Pierce he is all saic enough; but if
he were really in want of supplies, he had
better gone back to Vera Cruz, and brought
up train at once, for they will come handy
enough TO the army in its march through tho
mountains, from Puoba to the city of MeXi-
co; and flour and pork are among the articles
they have been waiting for.
What then, with the delay of Gen. Pierce
what with tho sick list ofGen. Scott--what
with the negotiation movements Of Mr. Trist--
and what with the rainy season, which is not
yet over-we may pretty safely assume that
Gen. Scott will hardly enter the Halls of the
MonteZImas before the middle ofSeptember.
We nIny be too slow by several weeks in this
estimate; but in Il few days hence we may be
enabled TO shape out some detinitivc opinion
on the subject. w.
