Written at my Mothers Grave.

The trembling dew drops fall
Upon the shutting flowers like souls at rest
The stars shine glorously; and all
Save me, blcst.
Mother, love thy grave.
The violet, with its blossoms blue and mild,
Waves DER thy hcad-whcn shall it wa,,
Above thy childe
IT'S sweet flower, yet must
Its bright leaves to the coming tempest bow
Dear mother. 'tis thine emblem; dust
Is on thy brow.
And could love to die;
To leave untastcd LIES dark, bitter streams
BY thee, erst in childhood, lie,
And share thy dreams
And must linger here,
To stain the plumagc Of my snless years,
And mourn the hopes TO childhood dear
With bitter tears.
Ay, must lingcr here,
A lonely branch upon a wihcrcd tree,
Whose last frail leaf, untimcly scrc,
Went down with thee!
Oft. from lifc's withcr'd bower,
In still communion with the past, turn
And muse on thee, the only flower
In memory's urn
And when the evening pale
Bows, like a mourncr, on the dim, blue wave,
stray, to hear the night-winds wall
Around thy grave.
Where is thy spirit lown'
gaze above-thy look is imagcd there;
listcn-and thy gentle tone
Is on the air.
O, come, while here press
My brow upon thy grave; and in those mild
And thrilling tones of tenderness,
Bless, bless thy child.
Yes, bless your weeping child
And ocr thine urn-regon's hottest shrine
o, give his spirit, indebted,
To blend with thine.

The administration sASlses Mr. I'sist Of the

finding that he could do no business for his master;
attempted TO do little on his own account, and the
chances are that he may yet be successful. lie
probably thinks that the eud sanciifes the means
but the administration think otherwise and have
devised the means OF ioTcibly expelling him from
Mexico.
