And the flowers in the nearer fields are born.

With souls Of the living, hand in hand

From eyes that open on earth no more,
f1ne warning word froma voice once dear
How they rise in the memory DER and DER.
r.r oif from those hills that shine with day
Ana Selds that bloom with heavenly gales.
TAe land Of dreams goes stretching away
M DINNER mountains and darker wales.
TAere lie the chambers Of guilty delight,
1here walk the spectress of guilty fear,
A ,oft low voices that float through the night,
AID whispering sin in that helpless ear.

So shalt thou come from the land of dreams
With love and peace TO this world of strife:
And The light that over that border streams,
Shall lie on the path of thy daily life.

her officers, for the first time, became aware Of
the results of Penay's voyage; but before the Ad-
vance had reached her berth, and before those IL
dinss We're received, the maps showing the dis
coveries made by the American vessels beyond
Wellington Channel, had been exhibited to the
originator of the enterprise, Mr. Grinnell. They
were not publicly alluded to al the time, because
they had not then been reported to the head of
the Department at Washington. in pursuance of
the practice prevailing among Navy officers, and
they had been communicated only in confidence.
II is believed. from the well known lberality
and ma-nanimitv of the British Government in
these matters. that the facts need only be com
municated, 10 induce them to erase from their
maps, the names which have been applied to
these frozen regions, and substitute those given
bv the American Navigators. The British name

North of Wellington Channel, is the "Aibert
