somewhat uncomfortably in the dust.
In the course of this ride we visited the
Campo Santo, a place of very serious interest
1t is rural cemetery, about three miles from
the city and is one of the. most beautiful
have ever seen. 1t equals Mount Auburn
in natural loneliness, and has more of art
about it, especially more architecture and
more flowers. We were struck also, with the
simple and sententious beauty of many of the
inscriptions, some of which we copied. The
following may serve as in example.
FratelIi
auivi lie nOstre Ossa aspettanO
II suono delP angelica tromba
Ed giudzio d bio!
This may be rendered." Brothers Here
our ashes await the sound of the angelic
trump, and the Judgment of God"
After spending here every moment we
could spare, we returned to the city and went
again to the museum of Fine Arts, to see the
paintings; of which there is large and valua-
BILE collection. In one room are arranged the
originals, by the most eminent of the Old
Masters-Raphael, Titan, Domencluno, Gui-
do, Carracci, and others. In this room many
students were engaged in copying. On look
ing around at these productions of exalted
genius-of men who in their branch of art at
tanned she highest niche by common consent,
IN the temple OF Fame,-who are to painting,
what Homer and Virgil and Milton and Shake
speare are to poetry-there seemed kind of
grandeur in the position they occupied Time
and the praise of many generations may in
some small measure have exaggerated their
merits; but who in later days has equalled or
promises to equal the best of their great works.
With this visit we finished with Naples to our
great regret. 1t was some satisfaction i'll
taking leave of place so charming, that
Rome waited us. As there was little to be
seen in travelling by land to Rome except the
Pontine Marshes, with which we had no
particular desire to make acquaintance, we
preferred to take the Steamer back to Civita
Veccla which is az once an expeditions and
comfortable route.
P. S. AT this point, some special reasons
which it is not necessary to mention, render
1t convenient to the writer of these sketches
to take a short "recess " of two or three
weeks /; after which he will pursue his way
through Rome, Florence, Venice and SO on to
the end.

The Wings and the War.

The wing members of Congress, or at
least that portion of them who are willing
to see their own country disgraced in the
eyes of other nations; are introducing
resolution upon resolution, charging the
commencement Of the war upon the Pres.
ident, and for the withdrawal ofour armies
to the east bank of the Rio Grande. On
one vote which was taken for the with.
drawal of our forces, we find that forty-one
voted in favor of it, and that four of these
were achig chairmen ofimpertant commit.
tees. -
1t is truly humiliating TO every patriot
and lover of his country, to witness these
attempts Of the wings to counterfeit the
efforts of the administration to bring the
war to an honorable conclusion, and to
delay, if not defeat, the army bill. Con.
gress, at the commencement of this war,
with but sixteen exceptions, TWO in the
Senatei and fourteen in the House, voted
for a bill, the preamble of which most EN-.
phatically declared that Mexico was res
ponsible for the war, and that it existed by
her otcn act. This war which was au.
thorized and supported by both parties in
Congress, at its. commencement, is now
denounced as the Presidents war The
blood which has been split by our brave
soldiers, who fought under this declaration
of Congr sss, the injuries inflicted by Mex
leo upon our government and citizens, are

Another Steamboat DiSaSter-Tremend0us
Explosion.

By the officers ofthe steamer Declar.
alton, we learn that the steamer Sea Bird.
lying at Cape Girardeau, lower landing.
caught fire about one o'clock on Thursday
morning, Jan. 9th, and was entirely des.
troyed, by the explosion of twelve humid
red kegs of powder in the hold. The
report was terrific, and the conclusion so
great as to cause extensive damage to the
buildings in the town. The College was
seriously damaged, by the destruction of
windows, ceiling, and portico, to the am.
cunt of several hundred dollars. A par.
of the boiler was blown across the river.
and the anchor entirely over and beyond
the College,. The Sea Bird was bound
from New Orleans to St. Louis, ard so
heavily laden as to be unable to como
over the bars between here and the Cape.
She had dropped down to the lover
end OF the town, where she had been ~
ing for two or three days.
We are happy to state that 40 person
was Injured. As soon as the fire was
discovered,the alarm was given that there
was powder on board, and every inhab-
liant, old and young, fled from the town
and escaped injury. The jar was distinct.

fire originated, or anything relative to in

succeed BY adopting such courseg They
have already prolonged the war by cheer

The indications which have already

to withhold supplies and reinforcements

patriotic wings in the House, who will
join with the democrats in protecting our
national honor and interests, to vote the
necessary supplies. Ifnot. ifsupplies are
withheld, a fearful retribution will avail,
