Enchanted Mountain.

They have strange things in Texas, as well
as wicked doings. The following account Of
great natural curiosity in that country, is
from the Texas Telegraph =
This singular mountain or hill, is situated on
the head waters of the Sallac-a small tribu-
tary Oflhe Colorado, about 80 miles from Bas-
sropi, in north WESTERLY direction. Ii is about
shree hundred feet high, and appears TO be an
enormous oval rock, partly imbedded in the
earth. When the sun shines, the light is re-
hected from its polished surface, as from an
immsnse mirror, and the whole mountain CLOVIS
with such dazzling radiance, that the behold
er who views it even from the distance of four
or five miles, is unable to gaze upon it without
experiencing painful sensation similar to that
which is felt when looking upon the rising sun.
The ascent of the hill is SO very gradual that
persons can easily walk up to the top; bot
the rock is SO smooth and slippery that ;hose
that make the attempt are compelled to wear
moccasins or stockings instead Of shoes. This
act, together with the name of the place, Holy
Mountain, remind the visitant very forcbIy Of
the command made to Moses at Mount Horeb,
Put off thy shoes from thy feet The Ca
manches regard this hill with religious venera-
ton, and Indian pilgrims frequently assemble
from the borders of the tribe to perform their
Paynim rites upon its summit

Spirit of my lost darling boy,
Oh, if not dead to all below,
vouchsafe some sound, some sign OF JOY,
To let me thy condition know!
A sign Oh for little sign,
While here in agony bow;
Where rests that lovely form of thine:
All changed, but precious even now.
Sweet darling babe; how can bear
To see thee laid beneath the sods
Oh, could I feel thou vert not there,
And realize thy soul with God!
The sealed lips, the sightless eyes,
The ivid hue of Death I sec!
But where, oh, where, thy spirit flies,
That blessed sight is not for me.
What wonder then my soul should cling
With anguish to this lifeless clays
Unless thy ransomed soul would fling
Some tidings from thy new found way
If thou art living, tell me where;
For darkness blinds my spirits eyes,
In Heaven, they tell me thou art there,
Oh, tell me where that Heaven lies
A state perchance, being blest,
Fixed in no far off boundless space,
Thy little soul perhaps may rest
Almost within my fond embrace
Let me but pass the little line
That flesh from spirit doth divide,
The cherub then that once was mine,
Again shall Autter by my side.
