TILE SABBATH BELL.
BY ELIZA COOK.


Peal on, peal OIL love to hear
The old church ding-dong soft and clear!
The welcome sounds ara doubly blest
With future hope and welcome rest;
Yet were no calling changes found
TO spread their cheering echoes round,
There's not place where man may dwell,
But he can hear a Sabbath bell.
Go to the woods when winters song
Howls like famished wolf along,
Or when the south winds scarcely turn
The light leaves of the trembling fern
Although no cloister-clmes ring there,
The heart is called 10 faith and prayer;
For all creations voices tell
The tdings of the Sabbath bell.
Go to the pillows, let then. pour
In gentle calm or headlong roar;
Let the vast ocean be thy home,
Thourt find God upon the foam;
In ripping swell or stormy roll,
The crystal waves shall wake thy soul,
And thou shalt feel the halowed spell
Of the wide waters Sabbath bell.
The lark upon his sky-ward way
The robin on the hedge-way spray,
The bee within the wild-thyme's bloom,
The owl amid the cypress gloom;
All sing. in every varied tone,
A vesper 10 the great Unknown;
Above-below-one chorus swells
OF Gods unnumbered Sabbath bells.

THE UNPAID MEXICAN INsTALMENT.-The
Philadel phia Bulletin has the following in rela-
ton to the unpaid Mexican instalment:
1t will be recolected that, after the closing Of
the McAican Commission, Gov. Letcher, return
ng to his post, took with him Major Slacum, sent
out by the Government to examine into the con-
dlion of an instalment supposed to be due from
Mexico, although receipt of the payment, had
been shown by Senior Rosas to the Department Of
State. Whether the going out of Mr.. Marks,
likewise i'll q Government vessel, had any impor.
tant bearing was not said at the time, nor is it
known now
According to the old story, Voss & Hargous
had been employed to negotiate the instaIment by
the American Minister, then guest with them;
and no explanation more could ever be GOT
Nothing is certain. exceptthat the United States
has not received that large sum Of money. Sue,
cessive ministers, since then have all resided with
the firm, and, Notwithstanding this favorable cir
cumstance for gaining exact information, all clue
appears to have been inextricably lost.
The success of the mission is only known from
the circumstance that about half million of dol
lars which had been awarded to an individual by
the Mexican Commission and detained in the
Treasury, was released, and it was said ON the
report received Of the actual state of the case
Almost as soon, it was said that Mr. Letcher had
given the Commissioner another business in
charge, and which would detain him long time
in Mexico. 1t is a singular circumstance that
while since then We have not heard whisper
more of the one case, the other is so notorious.
Indeed the real business of the Commissioner
seems to have been forgotten by the public, and
the belief fixed that he had no other charge than
to look into the fraud of Dr. Gardiner.
The matter is worth understanding at least for,
the immense amount involved and if the facts
are not to be discovered which may well be despair
ed ofwhether as matters stand, the moneys is yet
to be paid to the United States, or is necessarily
sunk in the settlement Of all accounts by the last
treaty, or, in some other who, lost to the nation
in the long operationssof. financial diplomacy
We regard the publication Of Major slacum's re-
port as necessary, and as probably containing
important rcvciationsSk
known to the public aswell as tothe Govern
mcnt.

Bur1su WAR IH Souru ArRIcA.-People in
this country have paid little attention to the pro-
nress of the British war in South Africa yet it Is
no small matter, judging from the length Of time
through which it has been protracted, and the
little PROGRESS made by all the British power in
bringing it to Il conclusion. The last intelligence
from the Cape of Good Hope increases the diff
cultics of the British Government, by showing
them that there is no dependence at all upon
the native forces they have engaged, but that
the whole burden of the conflict is to fall upon
thc E,uronean soldiers. The native allies consume
rations and earuy augment the expenses, while
the London Times describes them as exhibiting
4 "rcpulsive mixture of the spy, the coward, and
the assassin" All the intended movements OF
the troops are made known to the enemy, so that
treachery within is added to the embarrassmcnts
of meeting an unconqucred and subtle adversary
One of Gen. Cathcart's late procamatons an
nouncing an expedition against the katilrs was
accompanied by Il promise to divide the spo!ls
that mirht be taken among the natives OF the
frontier districts, promise of plumber not usual
in these days which proves that brbes are thought
necessary to induce the coloni>ts to defend them
selves England has to bear I'LL the cost and
furnish all the force, a very poor encouragement
for the Keeping up Of distant colonies.
Three years have now elapsed, and the haIr
war; like our Seminole war ut the end OF i SINH
lar period. is no nearer to the close than when it
commenced. The Kalirs are hot only not con
oucrcd, but they have their camps and their set
tlcr.cnts within the limits Of the British colony,
and the British have nothing secure beyond the
rance of their mllskctry. The expenses are
enormous, and the prospect of a close afar of:
Early last year the late Chancellor of the ENcLc-
quer asked 100000, on the presumption that
the war was coming to close Ne had hume
rous such endings of the Flovla war, with the
same result Nine hundred and sixty Thousand
pounds have been since spent, and the war Is

creased, the defences of the colony increased !;
and besides all this, there is constant loss and
destruction of property, to which the mere army
detenees are bagatelle. Truly this war in Kaf-
fraria, into which Great Britain blundered by the
mismanagement of her colonies, is no small af-
fair, as her treasury will testify. Before she gets
through with it, it will have cost her a greater
sum than the whole colony was ever worth. As
10 its future worth, it may be set down at nil.
