Iron THE anpunLlc.l
10 the Memory OF Zachary TIA!

TO the Memory OF Zachary Taylor.
II seems but yesterday when through the land
Stirring all hearts as with trumpet blast,
Thy triumph rang from where the salt sea sand
Rims the wide ocean 10 the prairies vast.
Then glanced thine eye through wreaths of battle
smoke,
On ranks that reel'd beneath wars iron hail.
Then on thine ear the cannon's thunders broke,
Drowning the frantic shout, the dying wall.
Unharmd, triumphant, guiding like a star
Thy faithful few, till vict'ry, like sun,
Rose on the night of battle, scatt'rng far
The beams of peace thy dauntless valor won.
Thou stoodest then, glory's iadeless wreath
A nations millions bound around thy brow;
But all too soon the stealthy hand of death
Hath pluck'd it thence the cypress crowns thee
now.
Yet art thou victor still--o'er death and time
Triumphant now, thy soul, in realms above,
Basks in the glory, endless and sublime,
That dwells forever round the throne Of love!

BALTIMORE, July l2-5 p. IN.
The Roman Catholic Cathedral is undergo
ing thorough repair; it has been for long time
in unfinished state, and when finished it will add
greatly to the already beautiful partot the city in
which it is located. Strangers passing through our
city to remain over Sunday mostly always visit it
Sunday afternoon, principally to hear the music,
which is of the best kind, but more particularly to
see the beauty of our Baltimore bellies, who congrc
gate there in crowds on Sunday afternoons.
Those military companies, temperance societies,
and order of red men, and others who intend par
ticipating in the funeral ceremonies of the late
President will leave here to morrow morning, in
cars provided for them.
Our markets dull, but very little business
doing. Sales to-day of 400 barrels Howard street
flour at $50 5. City Mills held at 81 81. Wheat
dull, but little doing. Corn-supply light, some
small sales to-day Other things unchanged

WISE QUARANTISE.-A correspondent of the
Boston Post, writing from Naples, relates that on
the 2Ith day Of May last government order was
published at Messina, forbidding the entrance of all
American vessels from any ports of the United
States. The existence of the yellow fever at RiJ
Janciro is supposed to have caused these stringent
measures to be adopted, the wise men Of Naples
doubtless thinking that this sickness might be ship
ped TO New York Boston, and from thence TO
Sicily, like bag of Rio coffee
The same correspondent says, that Amin Bey, a
Turkish officer, who has been sent by the sultan
mission to the United States, arrived with his in
terpreter at Naples on the Ith of June. Amin Bey
is in the Ottoman navy, and, he is TO embark in
the store-s ship Erie, he may be expected in Wash
ington about the end of this month beginning OF
August.
A fatal case of cholera was reported TO the board
Of health Malta, the 9Th OF June and what is
curious, that day was the anniversary Of the pc
Rod, thirteen years before, when this disease broke
out in the island, and swept of from five to six
thousand Of its inhabitants.

dividend Of fly per cent, their first dividend. This
Company started, we believe, with a capital not
exceeding six hundred thousand dollars. II has
since purchased the steamships Unicorn, Tennes-
see, Cherokee, and Philadelphia, for which there
must have been paid all of seven hundred thousand
dollars. This fact, considered in connexion with
the dividend above mentioned, will afford some idea
of the profits of the business.
