On the desert stands that cover
His once heroic heart
That bore itself so ga!lantly
In lifc,s intrepid part.
Alas! his form shall rush no more
Through the battles frey rain,
Nor his tall plume wave, nor his voice
be heard on the charging plain.
And his hand shall point no more
The flying cannon's path;
Nor his eye light DER the conquering line
In its ficrcely burning wrath.
And thou, pale little flower oflove,
His sentinel did stand,
In thy lonely bayonet bower,*
Amid the white sea sand.
Like tear of Natures weeping,
Shed for her noble slain
Like a star its vigil keeping,
Above that hallowed plain:
Like woman's loving constancy
In the dcsert-thou art there

RATTLE ON THE PRAIRIES

The Baltimore Patriot publishes an extract
from letter of James S. Wehered, describing
an attack upon train OF Americans, on the 18th
June, by 300 Camanche Indians, on the banks OF
the Arkansas river, not lar from Pawnee Fork:
1.-THE enemy was salanlly met BY us. The
engageIncn nj lasted about thirty minutes, in which
three Of our men were wounded, supposed NOR
tally. Lieut.. Love, who commands one hum
bred men, ordered out twenty-five Of them TO pur-
sue the Indians, and, il possible retake The cat
lie. They overlook The enemy, and had despe-
rate engagement, in which five OF our men were
killed and six wounded; three of these, the doc
Tor reports, cannot live. Several horses were
killed on both sides. The loss on the part of The
Indians is supposed 10 be large, they, however,
as is their custom, succeeded in carrying of their
dead Four OF our men were found scalped; one
poor fellow had his scalp taken of and his ears
cul off whilst alive; on another | counted six
teen wounds, mostly made by anceS
"These Indians were accompanied by some
Mexicans, and il is supposed a few Americans
are among them; q trust this is not the easel
We shall remain here until reinforced. There
are thirty eight Government wagons here, which
will have 10 remain until stock is provided for
hauling them. This will be forwarded by The ex-
press which we send 10 The States, after The battle
"The Camanches are The finest equestrianS in
The world. They will ride past US al full gallop,
and show our rifles no part OF their bodies but one
iool, which is hooked over The saddle the rest Of
them being hid by the horse. In this position
they fire under the neck OF The horse. In form
they are perfect Apolos, and are considered the
bravest and most warlike Indians on The conI-
nent.

war, il will find The publishing OF this people quite
a serious affair. Inc Camanches will have no
