MY GRAVE.
BY ERNST.
When earthly pleasures all have flown,
And Jordan's rolling waves appear,
And Death, with low, sepulchral tone,
Approaches near;
Should anxious friends then vainly seek
To calm Life's ebbing flow,
Or chase the crimson from my cheek
0fhectic glow
Let them not mourn my hapless lot,
Since they've no power to save
But make in some sequestered spot,
a quiet grave.
There let them lay my shrouded form,
On mother earth's green breast;
Where mid the thunders of the storm,
I'll candy rest.
Where birds may sing in ivy-bowers,
Around my peaceful tomb;
And choicest Of sweet-scented flowers
Exhale perfume.
Where willows bending, as in prayer,
Their fair arms gently wave,
And with their long, disheveled hair,
Weep DER my grave.
The murmurs of some flowing stream,
My requiem shall be;
While watching stars above me beam
~Efulgently.
In sweet repose, l there shall lie
Upon a dreamless bed
Till trump of God shall rend the sky,
And wake the dead.

NAVAL ORDERs,-Orders have been received at
the GosportNavy Yard from Washington to rig and
tit out for sea Immediately three frigates, and to
hasten the completion of the two now in course of
construction. 1t appears from this that our gov.
ernment has become impressed with the necessity
OF preparing for contingencies These are peri.
lous times, and it would be we'll for our country ii
her means of defence were more ample.
P.S.-We learn by telegraphic despatch that
orders have also been received at the Charlestown
(Nass) Navy Yard, from Washington, to fit out the
Cyane and Saratoga as soon as possible.

THE REMAINS OF MADAME SoNrAG-It will be
remembered that soon after the death of Madame
Sontsg in Mexico, her husband returned to the U
States and sailed for England, expecting her re-
mains to be forwarded in a ship to London. A let
ter dated Vera Cruz, Oct 4, says:
The coffin containing them has been brought 10
this place by one of the ordinary carriers carts
like any common package, having been valued in
the carriers invoice at $500. On It's arrival here
it was first placed in the church of St. Augustine,
but being found offensive it taken without any
ceremony, religious or other, to deserted church
outside the town, wait the consent of some ships
captain to convey it to Europe; as yet none has
been found who would admit il into his vessel
Assuredly this poor lady did not anticipate in her
childhood that she should become one day aae
grand dame OF world wide celebrity, she can have
dreamt still less of the ndgnites her remains have
been subject TO- such as the poorest peasant would
family"

SOMETHING WRONG IN CANApA-We learn bv
a telegraphic despatch, from Montreal, that Lord
Elgn, the retiring Governor of Canada, has been
detained at the seat of the Canadian government
in consequence of recent discoveries in the books,
accounts and certain quarters of the department
OF discrepancies which indicate that an extensive
system of fraud has been practising. Whether the
ex governor has had any hand in the matter cannot
be known till the subject is investigated. There is
much speculation on the subject.
