ORIGINAL POETRY.
BLooDLEss TRIUmPHs,


Whcrccure the sprigs that bound thy youthful brows,
And spurTed thee, Science, on to eager vows?
Lost midst the crowns the Universe awards
No barrier steep thy,riumph march retards!
The mute Gre-courier spreads his airy ways,
Like bean-renecting paths Arachne iays
Invades new hadh's, links citiss' shining towns,
ootstrps, IN speed, the meet, couteuding hours
Recks it light to skim Earth par'd course, o e.
And starte pripcedoms with his vewless force;
Dives through the portals of the wa'ry vast, o
Explores lis wopb, bursts through the surge-shocs
To stihe his tidiugs, springs TO the onward shore,

There will, think, be no difficulty In obtain

passed the Senate last session, will pass that body
again, as soon as it comes up in the order Of bu-

will be in the House, and there only from delays
the bill will pass thatbody whenever it is brought
to the vote. Senator Atchison, who has charge
OF the bill, suppose, will bring it forward ear

sent TO the House in advaoce of tho bills which
may occasion protracted and excited debate, and
