BY wN 7. G. WEAVER.
Sweet-voiced bird! why dOst thou fear
Nv step whenever | appear!
[ harm thcc not, il thou vert near
Though to reach
/ only came thy song to hear,
From this green beech.
Sing on-thy wutchlul mate may rest
securely III her shcltcring nest;
would not move her downy breast
With anxious fear
And yon fierce hawk shall not molest,
While am here.
Soon from their home, so cleftl hung,
Will hutter forth her icathered young,
10 warblc these green boughs among.
And all day long,
Pour out, with initiative tongue.
Their mingled song.
o sing that magic air again!
What caie for man. S cold disduin,
While beneath this SHADE remain
And list to thee;
Chant thy sweet, ever varying strain
From yon lone tree!
Oft will lenvo nv little room,
Ere sunshine doth the sky Hume,
To wander mid the dewy bloom,
And hear thy notes,
Soft as the fresh and sweet perfume
That round me floats =,

RAILWAY FROM THE MEDIrERRANEAN TO
JERusALEM.-At recent meeting in London,
Sir Calling B, Eardley mentioned the fact
that II railrord is about to be established from
the Mediterranean to Jerusalem, with the
sanction of the Turkish and British govern
ments, and that it is likely that the material
of the line from Baaklava to Sevastopol will
be transferred for the purpose. Thus, materi-
ally rs well as politically, the war has tended
to open up the east to western enterprise.

Minerals.


The mineral resources of the Upper Colorado
are yet, TO great extent, undiscovered A
gentleman who has considerable experience ia
California mining has recently been prospecting
on the Sandies and in the adiacency. He is
disposed to believe there is gold, somewhere in
these regions in sufficient quantities to make
working profitable.
He visited the old silver mine on Honey
creek. He was directed how TO find il by Capt
Alasom Burr, of easte,n Texas. The shaft
reaches to the depth Of 60 feet a, the botiom
is narrow, but very deep stream of running
water. He brought a large piece of the ore,
which resembled very much the ore taken from
Real del Monte mines in Mexico. He had
other specmens-one he pronounced SilvSr
the other lead. Among other things he brought
IN number oi very nice garnets This stone
Is hard enough to cut glass, and is among
the most valuable of the precious stones.
During the fall, he proposes to make more
extended and minute reconnaissance Of the
country, and ascertain whether the mineral
wealth of the Upper Colorado is really as con.
siderable as appearances indicate. We have
never attached any particular Importance TO
the fact OF the known existence of gold on the
Sandies. The quantity is too small to repay
the laborer for gathering, but that there NAV
be lead somewhere in the vicinity, of greater
richness, is entirely within the range OF possi-
bility.-AuNin Times

iHE PAclFlC RAILEoAD.~-The Louisville
Courier says that "recent developments have
rendered the construction of the Pacific Rail.
road no longer probIena;ca." We would be
glad if we could see these developments more
clearly, or with more faith. They are, as far
as the Courier names them, as follows: The
special committee in Congress will report at
an early day, bill providing two roads-ooe
TO be constructed BY the several companies now
ioread chartered through Iowa and Mlnneso-
ia, BY the union Of said roads at Fort Kearny,
and from that point single trunk road TO the
navigable waters of the Pacific Ocean. That
portion Of the Northern route which lies with
in the State of California, will be assigned 10
the San Francisco and Sacramento Ralroad
Company. The Southern route, through Tex
as, and by El Paso, is to be constructed bv the
Pacific and Atlantic Railroad Company, Of
California, and their associates, from San
Francisco 20 Z! Paso; from that point east
ward through Texas, the road is "pportioned
TO the several railroads Of Texas already char
tered. These roads are to run from III PaSo
TO such point on the eastern boundary of the
State as they may select. The connections
with the Mississippi river are then given to
such roads OF Louisiana and Arkansas as de-
sire to make them, and to such points on the
river as they may Select. Such is the sub
stance Of the bill, said to have been agreed up
on by the committee. We fear that the early
construction of the roads will not necessarily
