THE SHEPHERD.

Twas near a kingly castle sal,
4 iair young swain passed BY;
a maiden from the window look d.
lie caught her longing eye.
"oh might | venture down with thes,''
With kindly voice she said
How wldto do yonder lambkins seem,
Tho blossoms here, how red"
The youth, in answer. thus replied
"Oh. would st thou come with me-
Fair glow those rosy cheeks of thine.
Those erms-can whittier be-"
And now each morn in silent grief,
lie came and looked above,
Till from the easement far aloft,
Appear'd his gentle love.
This friendly greeting then he sent:
Hail maid Of royal line
a gentle answer echoed soon
Thanks, gentle shepherd mine"
The winter pass'd, the spring appear'd,
Tho flow RS bloomed rich and fair;
The castle bounds he sought again,
But she no more was there
in sorrowiug tones he cried aloud.
.'Hail maid Of royal line. !"
a spirit voice beneath replied,
f'AGieui thou shepherd mine.n

The intensity Of application with which the
mind follows whatever it lays hold upon its lite
rary pursuits is exempIited in the case Of Rob
ert Ainsworth--a celebrated writer and antigua
rian Of the seventeenth century. He had been
for years engaged upon a voluminous dictionary
Of the latin language, and we are told that he
gave so little of his society to his wife while thus
employed, that before he had quite completed
it, she committed the whole work TO the flames,
Instead Of abandoning himself to despair, Aims
worth Immediately set himself to work to re-
write it; which he finally accomplished with
incredible labor.

To The Editor Of The Tribune
There appeared in your paper, two or three
days since. card from William A. Butler, Esq nd
dressed to the British Consul In that card Mr. Butler
asserts that Mr.. Emmets name was not mentioned in
our conversation That is certainly true. In the said
card MIR. Butler also says that he never hard the
British Consul say that he desired to procure the m
dicsnsaf Of Mr. Emmett, anybody else OF this
say nothing, only that believe him, because ne
SAYS Having had my say about this whole matter,
both at the meeting Monday night last and day
in the reports o; the papers, reluctant to renew
H. constrained, for several reasons to re-
state the conversation il came from Mr. Buffers own
lips He said substantially as follows " Mr. Baker
YOU had better 90 to those meetings-the British
Consul has been short time since 81 my fathers Office

leaders of those meetings At the r1e this converse
ton was bad we were within half block Of the place
where that awful and sublime meeting WAS held Mr.
Emmett was the prominent man there. Treasurer, Pre-
sident Of the Directory and Chairman OF the meeting

From Fort Maun-kight besween the Canaan
ches and Missouri Volunteers.

Col Garland. United States Army, and Major
Bryant Paymsster United states Army, arrived in this
city, on the Wyandotte, yesterday morning They
reached Fort Leayenworh with separate escort but DO
Indians seen by either party. The Osages sscs
snd Kansas indians al out on their annual hunt
for Buffalo but they had found none.
portion Of the troops under Capt k0rponays com
msnd about 100 in number, have arrived n Fort Lea
venworth and about 30 Of the number came down in
the Wyandotte.
We learn from good authority that the account, here
tofOre published from the West1H Herald Of the action
Of the 18th Of June between the Camanche Indians and
portion Of the Missouri volunteers, acting sn escort
20 Major Bryant, Is erroneous in several particulars
The troops were commanded By Lieut. Royal The
action took place sunday the 18th Of June at TWEEN
~ minutes after o'clock A. NJ. The Indians who
charged upon the camp were about 200 In number
while body OF the same number were stationed on
the North and ike number 10 the South Of the
campment. Nine indians killed al the camp Of
whom two dragged into the camp but the others
were LGssOed BY the Indians and secured.
Lieut. Royal pursued the enemy four miles across the
river and killed fourteen Of them -Four Americans
wounded bu, MI Of them have recovered. Mr.
Detz, Psymsster's Clerk, who reported shot re-
ceived a ball through his clothes and hsd his horse
wounded in two places. Major Bryant killed two lndi-
and two horses by the discharge Of sixpounder
belonging the command Il ascertaned that the
entire Indian loss was twenty three and there were
great number wounded Lieut. Royal behaved with
great gsllantry, did also Lieugs Stemmell and kuh
low, OF Col Glpin5 battalion.
The lesson has, doubt been serviceabc, az since
that time they have attacked no trains.
Capt KorpOnsy while out on scouting expedition
the l0ih Of July, up with party Of Indians,
fred upon them. and killed some men, by discharge
Of one Of the six Founders Capt GRIFFIN, Of Col Gil
PIN. battalion also killed several Indians the oppo
site side Of the riyer. young Mexian who had been
prisoner among them for two years, availed himself
Of the opportunity 10 escape 10 Griffin and taken q
Fort Mann. His sister was stn witt the Indians. snd
he says that they had white womal and her daughter
prisoners. This young man had engaged TO pilot Col
Gilpin to the stronghold Of the Indians.
