The Fate of American DISCOVERIES.

The great misfortunes, or violent deaths
of the more distinguished dscoverers and
explorers of the New World, have been no.
ted among the remarkable condolences to
be found in history. In this respect, howev-
er, they have only shared the too common
fate of the benefaetors OF our race, as some
of them properly were, and perhaps all more
or less directly.
Columbus was made the subject of perse-
cution and Imprisonment, and died at last
broken-h hearted. Sebastian Cabot, who first
discovered this part of the American Cont
nent, ended his days in o5scurity, and no
one can tell where he is buried. Verrazzani,
who next visited this country, under the pat
ronage of the French government, and gave
the earliest account now eXtant of our coast.
was lost at sea. Ponce de Leon, the dis
coverer of Florida, was mortally wounded
by the Indians. Fernandez, the first Euro
pean visitant of Yucatan, was also killed by
the natives. De Soto, the discoverer of the
Mississippi river, died from hardship and ex-
posure in vain search for gold, and was bu-
ried beneath the Father Of Water
Vasco Nunez was bcheaded; Cortez was
disgraced; Narvaez perished in storm near
the mouth of the Missisis pp; Las Casas had
to seek refuge in monks cowl Alvarado
was destroyed in an ambush; Pizarro was
murdered; Alamagro was garroted; Boba-
dlla and Roldan W ere drowned. Such are
some of the more conspicuous ex amples.
IT we look more closely at the several ca
ses, we shall find less occasion 10 wonder
that SO many perished by violence, or had
their days embittered by political or other
troubles, than that any should have escaped
this destiny. Most ofthese were during ad-
ventures, who trusted themselves to strange
seas and unexplored coasts, and set out on
u voyage of uncertain destination, across an
untraVersed ocean, in vesselsw which, as COM
pared with out ordinary ships, to say moth
ing of eur steam Leviathans, were but as
the birch canoe of the Indian TO the boats
that ply up and down our rivers and across
our lakes. The science of navigation was in
its infancy, all the mechanic arts far from
their present perfection, and how these men

which nominated Fremont in 1856. in their
platform, characterized Slavery and Polyga-

rill, Of Vermont, lately introduced a bill in
Congress, to prohibit and punish Polygamy

OLD psALM-TUNEs

Blackwood says of old psalm tunes:
.There is to US more of touching pathos,
heart-thrilling expression, in some of the
old psalm tunes, feelingly displayed, than
in whole batch of moderism. The strains
go home, the foundations of the great deep
are broken up; the great deep OF fathomabIe
feeling, that lies far below the surface of
the world-hardened heart; and as the unwon-
ted, yet unchecked tears start in the eye,
the softened spirit yields TO their influence,
and shakes off the load of earthly care, III
sing purified and spiritualized into clearer
atmosphere. Strange and inexplicable as
sociations brood over the mind, like the far
off dreams of paradise" minglpg their chaste
melancholy with a musing of still sub
dued though more cheerful character. How
many glad hearts, in the olden time, have re-
joiced in these songs of praise-how many
sorrowful ones have sighed out their COM
plants in these plaintive notes that now, /,
cold in death, are laid to rest around that
sacred church. within whose walls they had
so often swelle dwi,h emotion!''

FAME.


How like a morning cloud is worldly fame
and how little worth pursuing. Daniel Web
ster had wrought out statesman's majestic
life rs if il had been statue; and the noon
sun sllone full upon it, and no shadows fell
around the broad pedestal,
A very aged man was his companion, one
tiay, as the stage coach labored over the
granite hills of his native State. Conver-
sation beguiled the weary way, and Webster
inquired of him, If he ever knew Captain
Webster.
..Indeed did, - replied the old man, 'tand
a brave man and good, he was sir. and no.
bly, did he fight with General Stark at Ben
niDgton."
isDid he leave any children!'
"Oh, yes; there was Ezekiel. and think
--Rniel."
..And what became Of them!" asked Web
sier.
..Why,, Ezekiei--and he was powerful
man, sir--I have heard him plead in court
often, and he fell dead while pleading at
Concord @@-
"But what became of Daniel!'
"Daniel--Daniel," thoughttuily repeated
the old man; "wby Daniel, belize, is law
yer somewhere about Boston,"
And SO he thought there was such son
as Daniel: and this is human fame, for which
u1en toll and strive. and struggle out their
hyes.--B. +. TAYLOR.

auaged to cross the Atlantic at ali is mvs-

terry.
Arrived in the New World, a thirst of con.
quest and an Unsuitable love of gold, exposed
many OF these adventures to perpetual dan
gers and led tiefn to undertake enterprises
OF inconceiv1bie hardship. The history OF
'noder,i pioneer life has nothing to show like
It. The couqaeriny careers of tCertez and
Pizarro were not bayss play. Il was as if
the last remnant of chivalrous furur aui of
romantic knight-errantry was blazing up anew
before its anal extinction to the love of gold
with which, indeed, it was already jei ming
hstlj. Such mad spirit of adventure al
ways carries death in its train. Poll tical
troubles. also. must follow territorial COLI
quests, and the men who gave new empires
tsssessoia Kingdom received Jealousy and ill.,
sssstltude as a natural reconipense.
The comparison which has been suggest
ed between these heroic meu-who were
with all their faults and foilies, mostly bene-
factors of the race and such land pirates as
Lopez and Walker, hardly deserves notice.
The resemblance is about as striking as that
between Mount Blanc and an ant-hil We
should as soon draw parallel between Julius
Cesar and Don Quixotte. Neither in pur-
pose nor execuiion-uniess we speak of their
stalking -otf''-haye they anything in com
