"rnE OLD MOUNTAIN TREE"
sr JAMES c. CLARK.
Oh, the home We loved by the bounding desp,
Who're the hills In glory stood
And the mOss-grO~ graves where cur fathers sleep,
Meath the bOushs Of the waving wood
wsrsmember yet, with fond regret,
The rOek and the nO-erylea,
Where once used 10 play through the long, long day.
In The shade Ofths old nOu niAin tree.
wsArs pilgrims nov in stranger land,
And the joys o. youth are passed,
Kind hisnds are gone, but the old tres stand,
Cnharmed BY the warning blastj
Oh, the lark may sing In The clouds offspring,
And the swan on he silver sea,
Du, mourn for the shade where the Wild bird made
Her nest In the old mountain tree.
Oh, the time went BY like tale hats told,
In the land Of sony and mrth,
And many fOrm, In the ehurch-yard ssli,
FINDS rest nom the cares Ofsar.hi
And many day We will wander away,
Der the waves Otthe Western sea,
And the heart viii pine and vainly pray
FOR ag.ave by the old mountain tree.

NEW YORK, May 10.
Tho steamer Northern Light arrived here
bout ii O'Clock this forenoon. She brings
California dates to the Oath Of April, 36l
passengers, and S278.000 in treasure.
Owing to the general distrust in banking
houses, the passengers have large amount
of specie in their own hands.
The Nicaragua expedition under Col.
Walker, was to have left San Francisco
about the time the steamer sailed. Il con.
sisted Of rs to 100 men, included Mr.. Achil.
les Kewen, Capt. Hornsby. and other we'll
known individuals. The brig Vesta had
been chartered to convey them down rs en-
igrants.
Outside efforts to get up another trial jc
cleo. .. D. Senator were quite vigorous,
but tho chances were very slim.
According to n letter from Sacramento,
the question had assumed new and rather
phase, rs under strict cl'n-
struction OF the law in relation to elections
in California, there appears to DO no doubt
but that DR.. Gwin is entitled to the seat in
the Senate.
The point seems to be the clause OF the
Constitution which declares that plurality |
Of votes given at any election, shall consti:
tute choice, where not otherwise directed
In the Constitution.
DR.. Gwin having received plurality OF
sew votes over Mr.. Edwards, on the hrst
ballot in joint convention, 1t Is contended,
was then consti.utionally elected.
