We find in the last RECEIVED number of the
London Athena UNI, the following letter from
MIR. Grnnell to Sir John Ross, Sir Edward
Parry, and other gentlemen distinguished among
the list Of Arctic officers in the British service,
who had set on foot subscription, intending to
mark by some form Of honorable testimonial
their appreciation Of the noble share taken by
MIR. G. in the search after their lost countryman,
Sir John Franklin 1t will be seen that Mr.. G..
declines the testimonial, but on grounds that
cannot but reflect new credit on his name.
New YORK, Feb. "a.
GENTLEMEN,- report being confirmed by
the last arrival from England of your generous
intentions TO present ME with memorial OF
British gratitude for my efforts for the relief of
Sir John Franklin, beg 10 transmit by the first
steamer my grateful sense of the feelings which
have dictated the movement, and TO request
most earnestly that you will dedicate TO the re.
covery of the missing navgators any sums you
may have collected for the purpose ] claim no
merit for my expedition; the cause of Sir John
franklin is the cause of universal humanity, and
my country would have reaped as much as yours
had he succeeded in opening the icy gates of the
Arctic regions. | only regret that the aid was
so Intellectual, and am earnest in hopes that the
coming season will witness more powerful eff
forts to assist in the recovery of the brave men
who have periIed life for the advancement OF
knowledge, to benefit not England alone, but
the whole world. Gratefully approaching your
honorable motives, beg TO decline receiving q
testimonial for an act which was simply duty
especially urgent upon the citizens of This mari
time commonwealth. With sentiments OF great
respect, am, gentlemen, your friend,
HENRY GRINNELL.

w. Penny, and Others.

terrogatiyely, "whether the country ought mol
to do itself honor by placing the name Of Mr.
Grinnell among its institutions ''-asking al

BRIGHT bloom the summers round this spot,
Mild blow the winters from the sea,
Where have found a sheltered plot,
A home Of hospitality.
Where on pillow soft and white
Lit by a calm. unclouded noon,
I've dreamt-and by the rosy hght
Have only been awOke too soon'
yy,.rs with sweet morsels I've been fed,
Of unknown music from the trees,
Like wandering notes of minstrels dead,
Whose spirits drift along the breeze.
Where through green lanes, where fre-hles
CLEAN,
Fair shapes have shot across my view
As radiant as that soft, pale beam,
As strange, and all as transient too.
Where, 'mong red blossoms of woodbine,
Thick clustering round the swallows nest
I've seen the honey bird sip wine,
With cleaning wing and emerald crest
Bright bloom the colors round this spot
Of years that ripen, never set;
OF joys that know no twilight blot
OF memory, or slow regret.

Not Tomorrow, but To-day
Bear we must from one another
Love we must, and love Away.
Not the wise, not the strong hearted
Human hearts yearn not for such;
Better is its love impaired
To the tempted overmuch.
Love the weak and tendril-yielding,
Who else succOrless were left
Who mplOriDgly ask shielding
Ere they be Of strength bereft.
Art thou strong and all exempted
From the shame, remorse and woe?
Veil thy face, Oh thou interrupted
