RAD TASTE AND WORSE Hisrosy.-We have
read with surprise tie following sentiment, which
we trust found its way accidentally among the
standing toasts given at the Rochester festival -
The Army Of the United States and Gen.
Wool the Hero of Bnena Vista.
We are not disposed to discuss how far Gen.
Wool proved himself a Hero at that Battle, but
in behalf Of the illustrious dead, and with a
proper reverence for historic truth, we protest
against his being laid up, even at conviviai en-
terta;nment, where custom sanctions little ro'
mancinc, as the Hero Of that battle.
The whole country feels, to its inmost heart
that but one Of all the gallant men who Tough
there is entitled to that proud appellaton-thei il
lustrous TAYLOR.
We regret that Gen. Wool did not embrace
the opportunity aitorde' him, to O. unite ms .es.'
rnony to that Of his country. He would, in on
Judgment, by so doing, have achieved victor,
before which all his military achievement
would pale.-[ Albany Eve. Journ.

LII ALICE u. NEAL.

It came upon our startled sight
Like some dark thing unblessed,
More lonely for the very life
That round it closely pressed.
The monuments. with stains Of age,
Which silently cil'aced
The records that by rious hands
So fondly had been traced
The sunken graves where once the feet
OF friends scarce dared 10 tread
Lest they should wake the quiet rest
OF their beloved dead;
Now troddcn down by idle steps,
And yawnng, where the stone,
by rudcr touch irrovclcidly,
Had long been overthrow;
Enshroudcd, too, by mould ard weed
BY MOSES gray and dank
And Lriars iwined their thorny leaves
With dusty ncltlcs rank.
The ihistlc's fcnthcry seeds flew past
The spiders shining tell
And deadly nightshade flourishcd well
In such congenial soil.
While here and there n lonely rose
Still struggled for the light,
Though fading family, chilled and palc
BY each un'ovely sight
Oh, ancient graves how many tears,
How miny prayers yc knew
But those who mourncd have passed away,
Though unto de-th most true.
Now, day by day. a busy crowd
Goes gaily hurrying past,
And scarce a wondering, mournful thought,
Or glance toward thee is cast.
Nor beauty shrinks to know her robes
Have touched the dust OF death;
Nor manhood trcmblcs at the chill
or thy damp, noxious breath.
And yet, mcthinks, dark monitor,
That one might well discern,
Beneath the dust of mould'riug year,
Thy lesson true though stern
That Death is in the midst Of Life;
And though we mercy crave,
There is no knorlcdgc, no deriec,
kao,ra TO tie silent grdre.
