THoRPE's PORTRAIT OF GEN. TAYLOR

THoRPE's PORTRAIT OF GEN. TAYLOR
While in New Orleans, a few days since we
visited the Lyceum LIBRARY in the second Mu-
nicipaIity Hall, and had the pleasure of seeing
a full length portrait Of the Hero of Buena
Vista, from the soul of our friend Mr.. T. B.
THORPE, faniliarly known as " Tan Owen, the
Bee Hunfpr.' 1t is Il noble picture, in which
are concentrated all The talents and enthusiasm
of the distinguished artist.
General Taylor is represented on the battle
field of Buena Vista his tent forms a portion
of the back ground at its entrance is seen a
couple oftrunks used for tue moment as a table
upon which lie his sword, cap, and military
maps. On the right is a distant view of noun
tains-a plain covered with tents. In the
middle ground of the picture a magnificent
aloe gives the Mexican character to the land
scapc. The figure Of Gen. Taylor is quiet in
its attitude, but there is a great force and en-
preston in the position of the head. The dress
is carefully painted from that used at Buena
Vista. The likeness is faithful and the picture
highly finished. We understand that Gen.
Taylor's most intimate acquaintance at Ba-
ton Rouge are unqualified in their approba-
ton of the merits Of the picture. This is the
only full length picture. from life, of General
Taylor that has ever been painted, and will, nc
doubt, like Staart's Washington, be one ofthe
most popular pictures ever painted of any one
of our public men. The eyes are particularly

DREAMS.

Oh, ] have had dreams, l have had sweet
OF childhood's bright and sunny hours,
When wandered all day by the sparkling
streams,
And culled Cor my mother the gay wild
flowers,
When wove her wreath of green wood
bine,
And twined in it berries and buttercups gay,
And | crowned her pale forehead and she
kissed mine;
All! she, like the flowers has faded away!
She has faded away-fadej away
I've had bright dreams of the old Elm tree,
Beneath whose branches spreading wide,
have sported away in childish gee
The feet winged hours OF eventide;
have dreamed of the friends once gathered
there,
To frUlic away the livelong day.
i'ntrsmmeled by fear, unwearied By care;
But they, like the rest, have faded away!
They have faded away-faded away!
have had sweet dreams Of fairy form,
That was ever around me there,
OF her bird-liae voice, with its silvery charm,
Floating away on the evening air;
But alas! for the flush and the wasting breath!
Alas! for thy power, Decay!
An angel beckoned her home from tie earth;
Like the morning star she faded away
She has faded away-faded away!
have had bright dreams as wandered alone,
When still midnight IN silence reigned,
When my own pale star shoae bright from its
throne,
And in vision, Of hope my soul was chain
ed;
But the cares Of earth would come again,
The heart would grow sick with Hopes
delay,
And the vision wovc Of my destiny then,
All! they, like the rest have faded away
They have faded awuy-faded away!
