Sonnet.
BY LEIGH HUNT.

ieit u harmonious verse as Leigh Hunt. Il
is pleasant in This age Of many words and few
thoughts 70 hnd a poet who is any thing more
than q mere maker Of verse. Tho following
sonnet is from the under current Of poesy, and
contains a sermon which addresses itself forci-
bly, to the sunco guid,' as Burns hath it'll
Abon Ben Adhem (mny his tribe increased
AwOke one night from a deep dream of peace.
And saw, within the moonlight in his room,
Making II itch and like a lily in its bloom,
Ar angel writing in a book Of gold;
Exceeding peace had made Ben Adhem bold
And to the presence in the room he said,
What writest thou?' The vision raised IL
head,
And, with a look made of all sweet accord,
Answered, 'the names Of those who love the
Lord.'
: a nd Is mine one?' said Abon. 'Nay, not SO;
Replied thu angel. Abon spoke more low,
But CHEEKY still, and said, Il pray thee, then
Write me as one who loves his fellow-men.,
The angel wrote and vanished. The mex.
night
It came again with a great Weakening light,
And showed TIE names whom 1--we &c God hac
blessed,
And 10! Ben Adrem's name led all the rest.

A Domestic poem, IN Three acts and a haE stor
metre-being he kind Of metre used By mos,
gas companies.
This longing after beauty,
This signing after curls,
This chasing after fashion,
Wherever fashion whirls,
And all hat sort Of thing.
May do for those who like them,
For those devoid of taste,
For those who barter diamonds off
For diamonds made Of paste,
And other blockheads.
But to a wife who truly lov s,
Who'd be what she appears,
Who'd spread a sunshine round the man
That keeps away her tears,
And bring her taters home,
We'd whisper softly in her ear,
We'd grave it on her heart,
That knowing well to FRY a steak,
Beats sentiment aud art
A darn'd sight.

oREGoN.-Governor Lane, in his message to
the Legislative Council of Oregon, delivered in
July last, expresses the determination to punish.
the Cayuse nation Of Indians for the massacre at
Wallitupe, as soon as the regiment Of the United
States troops, expected in September, should ar
rive. The murder Of American citizens at Nes-
qualify by Indians, would also be redressed. The
relations with most Of the tribes however, were Of
an amicable character. The message enlaFges
upon the agricultural and mineral resources 81 the
Territory and the extent and capacity of its rivers
and harboFs. 1t considers the Congressional APP
preparations for buoys at the mouth Of the Column
bra River as inadequate to the work, owing to the
advance in the price Of labor since the gold dscov
cries in California Ii is Therefore recommended
that the people memorable Congress for further
appropriations. Many Of the inhabitants were re-
turning from California, and Governor Lane thinks
that so far from reducing the population Of Oregon,
the gold excitement will double it in a year since
large proportion Of the California emigrants will
come to seek permanent homes in the fertile aud
healthy region of Oregon. The expense of the
late Cayuse war is estimated at $780, 0oO and Il is

FRANcE.-The, Paris correspondent Of the Lon
don Globe writes follows, on the Both ult :
People begin to admit that the legitimist secret
society, most Of the members of which were ar
rested on Monday night, was real affair but it
has very little importance, for it does not appear
that any legitmist Of note is implicated in it
The Journal des Dt5ats gives the following
additional details Of the late legitimist plot:
The association called the Legion de St HUI
bert had it is said held several meetings preI ous-
" but never twice at the same place. 1t had never
been able to assemble all it's members at the first
summons, and was TO have divided itself into sec
tons and been organized militarily, each member
being edseither at his own expense or the gene
raj cost. In order to reguarise that organization
it decided to proceed once to the nomination
Of the officers of the legion, and that was the prn-
cipal object Of the late meeting at the residence of
M. PatFas de Conpaigno, (not Gompagnot as stated
in some of the journals,) the President, formerly
garde au corps. But it appears that number Of
the letters having been improperly addressed, did
not reach their destination, that the meeting was
not numerous one.
Nevertheless the persons present received a list
OF the candidates proposed as officers, which list
was seized by the police agents. AT first the per-
sons declared that they were assembled to decide
measures to be taken relative the approaching
election Of three representatives Of the Seine, but
afterwards several Of them declared that their real
object was to concert together for the purpose OF
restoring to the throne, by pacific means, Henry Of
Bourbon. We think it right to add that, from the
papers seized it would appear that their propaganda
ism was Of most timid character, and not by any
means active The judicial investigation has been
confined to Nj. Broussais, Judge obstruction"
The following letter from Lamartine appears in
the Journal d1s Loiret of the 9th ult:
" l see in reading your journal, and | understand
the reproaches apparently well founded of the cleo
tors Of the Loiret, my prolonged absence from
the National Assembly. The disease with which
/ was attacked at the very moment, even when
they did me the honor to think of me, has not left
since that period one day without sufferings in
oessantly redoubled. Domestic necessities, imper-
alive on private man, have been united to these
sufierings oretain me- in spite of myself for foui
months from the post to which they deputed me
i feel that it would be to abuse that confidence
and the mandate of your fellow-ctizens, if l wer,
any longer to leave their representation incomplete
Be kind enough, therefore, to make known to then
hatf in three weeks, at the latest from this date
my health is not improved, shall feel it my dutl
to tender my resignation Of functions which nov
hold without fulfilling them, and to carry from tn
Loiret only the eternal gratitude for its mandate
and the painful regret at being compelled to resg
it. Accept, sir the assurance of my high conside
ration. LAMARTINE. ~
