From the outer womb Of the primal gloom

But, first, Ike wrath of dread, turned
On the bowels from whence sprung.
And each marvel there that was shaping fair
Through tie binding space dung.
In the new-iormed fire. my orbcd desire
Flamed forth in a turning sphere,
So swift that It's motion through yon blue ocean.
Ye can, yet, neither see nor hear;
And around and around the water and ground
Spun after me like soul,
Till voice went forth to the sea and EARTH
"Be fxed--Ind obey my control "
And, then, in the dark, unsthomed caves
OF the earth, and sea, and air,
My spirit was pressd and its deep unres;
Still haunteth them every where;
And sighs lhro' the pores Of the main and the shores
To the demons that still are free
And that ride the gsles Ger the hills aud the wales
To work what they can for me,
".
And these spirits Of evil they love me well.
And they fan me with their wings,
While the earthquake rocks, and the thunder shocks
And the water hoarsely sings;
And, stealing away from the central esrth
From its red hearts fercest glow.
In manya eyre the merry FIRE
or the lghtnpgs come and 60.
Iia ha ha they have summoned me iorh,
They have lsosentd my chains at length,
And sweep to the uttermost ends Of earth
In moment Of speed and strength -
On that beautiful dome We have called the sky,
Meath which, in your peace we dwell,
but turn my eye. as hurry by,
And il glsres like the roof of hell.
And wherercr sweep onmy fiery path
All Nature Grow5 bank with fears,
Ard her everlasting hills give Sp
Their oaks Of thousand years,
And her streams rush frightened from her breast,
And the sea doth howl with Dread
Till the eyelesE forms OF the lost in storms
Stare out from their wakcned bed.
Ye boas, ye have chained the Iightning's wing,
Ye have forced the fire, We say, Z
To work at the forge, and drag the car
And your veriest whms obey;
And ye dream We have power DER the viewless wind
When il lags in the beyng sail,
Or drives from the Gains your spri,-like vans
Into port with joyful gale -
VIII.
But am the monarch that Knows the spell
Ye neither can force nor bind,
And listen the call Of my lieges ALL
In the water, and fire, and wind
And then--but mighter Power is laid
On the whrlwiuds vengeance yet,
And ye see but my track meath the hurrying rack
OF pent-up storm cloud set.

But at last, there shall come darker pail,
That shall spread from shore to shore,
When the God OF the winds my chains unbinds,
And my strength is curbed no more -
Then the earth and the sea from my wra shall flee
Like he leaves from an angry day,
And the heavens shall fail, and the Lsrd Of All
Alone, be not swept away.

BURLINGTON HAWK-EYE.

ns,e for tickets 10 witness the preparation of q
judicial tragedy, to scrutinize the features and
department of the convicted felon, and to lnxu-
riate in the contemplation of his dying struggles.
Yesterday, the prison yard again was crowded +;
but, how changed the scene = There were no
''exqnIs;tes" of the white-kd- glove school pres
ent, then for there was no one to be hanged
No gibbet frowned upon the group then assem-
bled no ribaldry or obscene oaths arose, to
blaspheme heaven, from the crowd of convicts,
who, gathered together in the prison yard, lis
tened with rap: attention, TO the eloquent exhor-
tations OF FATHER MATHEW, who ha |, at
his own request, been permitted to address them.
The worthy Father was listened to with the mos:
respectful attention. Many of the prisoners were
visibly affected and some few, who, in their ma
tive land, had taken from his hands the pledge
but had, unfortunately, like lost sheep, gone as
tray, shed tears Of repentance at the sound of his
hope-insp;rins words, and displayed the most
painful emotion. The good priest administered
the pledge to over two hundred prisoners, TO each
OF whom a medal and card was presented
The scene formed so striking a contrast to the
last which I witnessed in tie same place. that it
made strong, and, I believe, most abiding i'm
preston on my mind. l sincerely hope, that
the parting prayer and benedic,on Of the Rcver-
end Father may be realized. He appeared to
grieve greatly at the fearful proportion of his
countrym"n, among the prisoners in the Tombs {;
and the effects of his exertions painfully Wis.,
bic in in his care-worn countenance.
Yours, truly, Iowa.

From Cal foynia.

Tie arrival Of the U. 5. Mail Steamer Illinois
at New York on the 18th, with dates from San
Francisco to Sept. 10th, gives u, nine days later
news from California.
The operations in the gold region have been
eninently successful; large amounts Of gold have
! been taken both from the quartz rock and from
the sand As evidence Of the abundance of gold
still in California, we may state that the Illinois
brings full two millions, on freight and in the
hands Of her passengers.
San Francisco has been rapidly rebuilt. and
continues to rise a new and beautiful city from
! the ashes of her fires. There had been another
destructive fire in A1arysville, and one also in
Spanish Town. The destructive element seems
only, however, to kindle anew the energies Of the
people, and it is announced that these towns are
going ahead rapidly.
Doubt still remained in the minds Of the peo-
pie of San Francisco, as 10 the result OF the cleo
| ton of Governor. The prospects were in favor
of the election of Reading, Wing. The returns
were no, all in, and many that given, are only
estimates. The other democratic candidates are
! elected.
Tile Legislature will have majority of demo-
Gratis. ensuring the election of democrat to the
United States Senate, in place of Col. Fremont.
The controversy about the division of the State
| continues, and begins to grow warm. The real
! question a. Issue is the slavery question. The
Southern Californians want slave labor. The
elections in all the southern counties turned upon
this question: convention had been proposed,
to assemble at Santa Barbara on the third Mon
| day Of October.
We are glad TO learn that crime has sensibly
diminished throughout the country, and no exc
cuton had taken place since the sailing of the
last Steamer. The Indians in the South had been
quiet. Those in the North had become somewhat
troublesome.
A railroad is to be constructed between San
Francisco and San Jose, to which $4,000 has
already been subscribed.
