that is of no great consequence--to hlm-proba-

WE WATCHED HER BREATHING

W Il w II
BY THOMAS HOOD,
"She sleeps;
Her smiles hath passed away,
AS dies ripple on the sea-"
We watched her breathing through the night,
Her breathing soft and low,
AS on her breast the wave OF life
Kept heaving to aud fro.
So silently we seemed TO speak,
So slowly moved about
As we had lent her hafour powers
To exc her being out.
Our very hopes helied our fears,
Our fears our hopes belied;
We thought her dying when she slept,
And sleeping when she died.
For when the morn came, dim and sad,
:. And chill with early showers,
HeI quiet eyeids closed-she had
Another morn than ours.

FROM BEHRING'S STRAITS.

A letter from Sag Harbor, to the New York
Commercial has the folowing:--
From the Far North. Capt Royce, of the
bark Superior, arrived on Saturday evening last.
has furnished us with the following information
relative to his cruise in the Arctic Ocean, He
says-"I passed through Bheling Straits on the
lst OF July, lS4S, with current running to the
North at the rate of from to miles an hour.
Saw whales in the Straits working North with
the current After getting clear Of the land to
the North OF the Straits, saw large numbers o.
whales, very gentle. Saw whales every day
while there. Found it difficult to keep to the
Southwark owing TO the Northery currents.
Was swept four degrees to the Northward OF the
entrance by the current and supposed the bark
within one degree OF the ice, judging from the
position given to it by the earlier navigators at
the same season.
Capt Royce describes the weather as being
most of the time thick and foggy, though not wet
as on the Northwest grounds, with comfortably
cool working air. Was on soundings al! IT, e time
and frequently anchored, with no land in sight
| in clear weather, with depth of water ranging
! from 20 to 80 fathoms. Found the water shoal
as he went North. Took 1000 barrels in "a DAYS
which filled his casks Passed the Straits to the
Southwark on the 23d OF August Saw in the
| bays as he passed by them in coming down from
| the North, large numbers of whales, and during
| his stay saw many canoes passing from one con.
tinent to the other. Capt Royce always steered
out of their track, having no desire to form an
acquaintance with the natives. The current was
| found running South when he left the sea. CAPT
Royce thinks the whaling fleet may find employ.

H1sroRY OF MEx1co. A Washington cor
respondent OF the New York Tribune says, that
Gen. Scott, at the capture of the city of Mexico
seized and brought home some FIVE thousand vol
umes of historical works in the archives Of Mex
leo, all in the Spanish language. Some Of these
are three hundred years old, and contain per-
feet history of that country from its origin. 1t is
the intention of this Government to extract from
this library all that may be useful in forming
complete history of the possessions which we
have acquired by the treaty, to be retained in
our own archives, and the books will then be
sent back 10 Mexico. The right to bring the
books away is perhaps undoubtsd. but it evlnces
liberality in this government to return them
The work Of translating such portions of them as
will accomplish the object we have in view will
occupy year in all probability, and competent
person is already engaged TO fulfill this duty.

"TRUE ALLIES" The following is from
southern Taylor paper-the Richmond Republi-
can. 1t shows what the slave holders continent
ly expect of the present Administration, and how
shamefuIly those northern wings have been dup
e i and betrayed, who voted for Taylor under the
assurance that he was opposed to the extension
of slavery, and would do nothing directly or in
directly, against the Willnol Proviso:
Let the South ask, which are Its true allies,
the men who from interest revenge thus de-
serted and betrayed its cause, or the Wings who
give us solid deeds instead OF pretty words, and
who, instead OF talking about natural allies, elect
q southern man to the Presidency, who cannot
stab the South unless the dagger first passes
through his own breast, and acho tOiH not permit
southern rights and institutions to be invaded
sphiIe his hand guards the Constitution.
