Beneath these golden azure skies; So.
The river winds through leafy glades,
Rave where, like hattlements, arlRe
The grey and tufted palisades.
The fervor OF this sultry time
Is tempered by the humid earth,
And zephyrs born OF SUMMER prime.
Give dellclous GOODNESS birth.
Thew freshen this sequestered nook
With constant greetings; bland and free:
The pages of the open book
AL hutter with their wayward giee.
As quicker swell their bEeathinss sof.
And yonder dang ling woodblnes oft
Their crimson bugles gently yield.
The tulip tree majestic stirs,
Far down the waters marge beside,
And now awake the nearer hrs,
And toss their ample branches wide.
How blithely trails the pendant vine,
The grain slope lies IN green pose:
Throug h the dark foliage ofthe pine
And lofty elms, the sunshine CLOVIS.
Like sentinels in firm array
The trees of like their shafts uprear;
Red cones upon the sumac play,
And ancient locusts whisper near.
From wave and meadow, cliff and sky,
Let thy stray vision homeward fail;
Behold the mist bloom floating nigh,
And holly hook wide edged and tall;
Its gaudy leaves, though famed apart,
Round thick and mealy stamens spring.
And nestled to Its crimson heart,
The sated bees enamored cling.
Mark the broad terrace lecked with light
hat peeps through trellIses OF rose,
And quIyers with q vas ue delight,
As each pale shadow comes and goes.
The near, low gurgle of the brook,
The wren's glad chirp, the scented hay,
And cen the watch dog peaceful look,
Our vain dIsquietudes allay.
u, were our lives aituned to glide,
Like this serene and balmy day,
Mia mt we Est the radiant tide,
And breathe its tranquil joys Away,
Or were our prisoned hearts to know
Tue freedom of this cheering AIR,
And. IKE this sunshine, ever glow,
Cndimmed by doubt, or fear or care.
Pond glarces e'er would light the eve,
Smiles wreathe the lip, peace crown the brow,
For the content would never die

the receipts of Teas in this country for one -
year up to 5oth ultimo, il SAYS they viii be
100000 pounds short OF the imports Of the year end
ing June 50, lass, and that
The advance IN black teas. Oolongs, since last
UecembeT, has been hfteen cents per pound; and
Young Hyson Teas, of low and medium grades,
have experienced an advance of one hundred per
cent. over last seasons closing prices.
II VIII thus be seen that the strong and rapid
sdvance an the tea market has been the result of
snort supply and active demand but when il is CON
sioered that we may hear 1t any moment of the en-
IRE suspension OF shipments at Shanghai, and. IN
1act, that as soon sufficient force from Eng and
arrives at the seat of war all Eve ports of entry in
