THE SEA OF GALILEE.

The following touching lines were written beside
AXE of Galilee, by the late Rev. Robert NJ. McChe
Scotland, who visited Palestine for the benefit o
ealth
How pleasant to me is the deep blue wave,
o sea of Galilee
For the Glorious One, who came to save,
Hath often stood by thee!
Fair are the lakes in the land | love,
Where the pine and the heather grow,
But thou hast loneliness far above,
What nature can bestow
1t is not that the wild gazele
Comes down to drink thy tide;
But He that was pierced to save from hell,
Oft wandered by thy side.
1t is not that the fig tree grows,
And palms in thy soft air;
But that Sharon's fair and bleeding Rose
Once spread its fragrance here.
Graceful around thee the mountains meet,
Thou calm reposing sea;
But ah, far more the beautiful feet
- OF Jesus walked DER thee.
And was it beside this very sea,
The new risen Saviour said
Three times to Simon, "Lovest thou me-
My lambs and sheep then teedl"
O Saviour, gone to Gods right hand
Yet the same Saviour still,
Graved on thy heart is this lovely strand
And every fragrant hill
o give me, Lord, by this sacred wave,
Threefold thy love divine,
That may feed till find my grave,
Thy tlock-both thine and mine.

TWO SCHEMES

The Wing reasons that the Compromise bill
takes slave territory from Texas enough to
make three States,) and gives it to New Mexico,
(which can never become slave State" while
the Presidents plan, which it says is "strctly
Southern plan,'' leaves to Texas the territory
which the Compromise proposes to take from her.
At the same time, the Wing states that part of
the Presidents plan is to admit New Mexico as
State, when it applies for admission, with repub
can constitution. Now, we have intelligence
that New Mexico has already formed her consti-
tuition, with the Wlmot Proviso in it; but as this
last circumstance forms no objection to "letting
California in now" we presume the Wing would
let in New Mexico as soon as her constitution
reaches Washington. But what is this State of
New Mexico, which is thus to take her place in
the Union as the equal of Virginia More than
half of it lies East of the Rio Grande; its capital,
Santa Fe, where the first meeting for the State
government was held, where Col. Monroe issued
his proclamation for the Convention, and where
the Convention actually assembled less than
month afterwards is the East bank Of the RI
ver All the principal towns and settlements, and
much more than half the population, are in that
very territory, which, it is said, the Compromise
bill proposes to take from Texas, and which the
Presidents plan LEAVES to Ieras." This seems
to US to be truly strange sort of leauing, and
one which Virginia would hardly relish, if Con-
gress Cor the Presidency should propose to erect
State government in her Northwestern district a
The plan gives to these people, who have met to-
gether upon soil which Texas claims to be indispu
tably hers, all the rights ncidentto State sovereign
ty, and among them the right prohibiting the Tex
as shareholders and those of all other States from
entering that soil. 1t carves one State out Of
another, without the consent of the latter, against
the express provision of the federal constitution
Butitis argued that the Supreme Court will de-
eide the question between these two States after
New Mexico is admitted Suppose it should ii
must either confirm or dsallow the claim of Tex
as. If it confirm the claim, New Mexico will be
cut off by the Rio Grande, and, with a population
not as great as that of a good sized county in one
O. the old States would send two Free Soil Sena
tors to Washington. If the Texas claim be de-
MED, New Mexico, under the Presidents policy,
will plant the Wilmot Proviso, for all time, upon
that territory, which the Wing contends now be-
longs to Texas.
The Compromise BILL on the other hand, opens
the wholeof New Mexico, East and West. to the
introduction of slavery if the nature of the coun-
try is suitable for it, and violates no right or claim
OF Texas, because it stipuates for her previous
assent 70 the arrangement

We have received through the arrival oil
the Falcon files of the Lima Correo to the
Goth November inclusive.
On the 23d of that month law was pass
ed by the Peruvian Congress, prohibiting the
importation of foreign -four, on the grounds
that it was injurious TO health, from being H.
able to spoil within the tropics, and from be-
ing greatly adulterated.
The CoTreo of the oath November states
that the gold fever RACES among the i"hablt-
ants of the province of Peru, which is repre-
scented to be another California. The newly
discovered placers are crowded with adven-
rers, all eager in the pursuit Of the shining
spangles that are said to be so abundant on
them.
In consequence of an English trader. a Mr..
Woodhon, having been summariIy cast into
prison at africa, on the charge of being con-
nected with smuggling transaction, the
whole of the foreign merchants at Tacna
were thrown into alarm. They had prepared
a petition to the British Minister at Lima to
nterpose his protection against the abuse OF
power by the subordinates of the Govern
ment in the distant provinces.
We have late news through the Correo
from Bolivia. Previous advices had announ-
ced that the Ministry was lettering, that gen
eral dlscontent prevailed against the decree
proclalmIng an amnesty, and that political
crisis was imminent in the affairs of that con-
tinualiy distracted country. Now, however,
the opposition to the Government had become
much less. Gen. Belzu. the President, had
sustained his Ministers with irmness, and
had arrested the intrigues of his enemies
The lates: dates from La Paz were to the
18th November. The intelligence brought
thence states that on the 25th October BeIzu
entered Ouro, where he was enthusiastically
received by both the inha bltants and the
troops in garrison. In short confidence had
beer reestablished all over the Republic, and
although from time to time reports were put
in circulation that a revolution was to break
out in favor of Linares or some other leader,
they were all in the end found to be destitute
of foundation. The newly appointed Bishop
of La Paz, Cordova, had reached the seat Of
his diocese.-[M o. Picayp1e, 10th.

WALKING WIRE.-On Christmas day,
some fool-hardy adventurer announced that
he would walk across the Savannah river,
near the city, on a single wire, but, after get
ting an anxious crowd together he failed 10
accomplish it, for tile simple reason that he
was afraid TO make the attempt On New
Years day. however, he declared he positive
Iy would perform what he promised, and at
the appointed time appeared in gay fancy
dress, scraped the rosin on the soIes of his
shoes, mounted the wire. and grasped the
balance-pole, moved forward-and retreated
whence he came. A second attempt carried
him further, but the swing of the wire made
it every moment more and more difficult for
him to maintain a perpendicular, in evidence
of which his baIance-pole jerked about fear
fully. At last it was palpabIe that it was
impossible either to go forward or back, and,
after swaying an instant or two, man, fnery.
and balance-pole went down together into
the tawney water of The Savannah, whence
they were soon rescued-the ardor of the
gentleman being SO thoroughly cooled that
he was quite unwilling to renew the attempt.

The St. Louis Republican publishes list
Of boats sunk, burned, or otherwise injured,
on the Western waters during the last year,
which has been made up with much labor
and care, and the estimated loss of boats to-
tally destroyed is given in connection. We
made up, with the assistance of steamboat
officers, for the Cairo Delta, a list of all the
steamboats, which had been lost on the Mis-
sissippi river, between st. Louis and New
Orleans, from the commencement of naviga-
ton, comprising about $50 boats lost. But
it appears by the Republicans statistics, that
the number destroyed on Western rivers in
1849, rather puts to shame all past years
The number of boats lost, was SO, with an es-
timated loss of $1,000. AGO. which does not
include the losses by other accidents. such as
sinking collapsing of boilers. fues, damages
to boats cargoes, &c. The Republican thinks
fair estimate of every loss connected with
Western steamboat navigation, if included
with the above, would swell the amount to
the enormous sum of 5000, 100000 or more,
and including into this, accidents of fiat, keel,
the same might be safely set down at $2,-
500,OO0,00o!
What a commentary on iverimprovements
What rebuke to those who so far forget the
interests of the West as to oppose appropri-
atoms from the Governm for the improve
ment of Western rivers! Twenty-three of
these boats many Of them with valuable car
goes, are quoted as "sunk, " and not by col
lision. As we before remarked, the West
has long endeavored to get appropriations for
the improvement of her rivers and harbors,
and especially of her rivers. The great ma
jority of the large losses quoted among the
boats sunk, might have been prevented if
Government had extended the same fostering
care to the West in this particular, she has to
the East. "Polk stalks " are sticking up in
the OHIO and Mississippi, at some places in
such profusion and so dangerously as to just
ly entitle the particular spots to the name Of
graveyardS," which might be removed by
limited appropriations for the purpose from
Government. Yet we have in our midst a
paper which opposes all such appropriations,
but which is already SO ashamed of its posi-
ton, as we admit, that while it is publishing
columns in opposition, it still asserts it is not
opposed to river and harbor improvements,
thus insulting the understanding of its read
erE. 1t is not opposed to these improvements
yet it is opposed to the only measures which
can ever bring them about With the same
consistency that paper might say it was in "a
vor of a certain railroad, but opposed all ac-
ton to build it. 1t might favor anything, but
il must not be expected to advocate the only
means promising success!
