Legend Of Warwick Castle.
BY E. Z. ROBERTS.


Warwick Castle-still in a stale Of
splendid preservation--is undeniably one
Of the most magnificent specimens of the
leudal edi6ces spread throughout England
it is possible 10 conceive. Whether the
tourist gazes on the rich and picturesque
scenery Of which it forms the centre, or
whether we view its fine proportions. as
it overhangs the flowing Avon, and sur
rounded by the majestic trees which crowd
around it with such glorious profusiou,
and contrasting their verdure with its own
grey towers--it forms one Of the most
striking and attractive ornaments Of a
landscape, noble and grand in every
respect, the eye Of man can hope to gaze
upon. ..,.
As the traveller passes by a road cul
through solid rock. and where large
plantation hides the view of the ancient
pile. until it suddenly breaks upon the
eye, he finds himself all at once in the
centre Of a spacious area, where nothing
but ancient Notifications and huge ashlar
walls. towers and battlements frown
significantly upon him. To these may
be added Gothic buildings of much later
date, and now devoted 10 purposes Of a
more domestic aud peaceful order Than
those they were formerly intended for
The keep is. however, a splendid ruin
while the towers, Of rare antiquity and
vast strength, are yet existing. From
Guys Tower, the appearance Of the
surrounding country is Of the richest order
Of beauty, Towards the north, birds

afforded; while far away in the distance
rise the spires Of Coventry, recalling
perhaps. by force Of association, a recol
lection of the lair Codiva. or more incon
gruous, perhaps. the gay ribbons which
are the staple manufacture. Nearer a
hand rise up the crumbling walls o
Kenelworth, Guys Cliff, Blacklow Hills
the Shuckburg and Shropshire Hills, tn
old Saxon Tower on the Broadway Hill
and the fashion able spa Of Leamington
which seems to be lying at ones vsr,

TO ADA

Dear Ada sing that song again,
How sweet and cad it seems;
For oh, It brings sweet thoughts to me,
Endeared by Childhood's dreams.
From that last strain, SO sweet, so sad,
Comes back the dreams of old,
And Fancy then, IN faptures wild,
Breathe memories untold. ..a
Deep, deep, in the dim old forest,
hear those wood notes wild, .... d.
That charmed my ear, and joyed my heart,
When but a little child. ..
Those silvery tones, so sweet, SO sad, H..
That loud and thrilling strain,
Sweeps DER my heart, and oh, l long
To be child again.
In those shad owy bowers, in fancy wild
I'll weav 9 a garland fair s...
OF the gema of the bright and sunny past
That was cherished with tender care;
And Ill list for the woodland ecbos thai
fall . '.t u~-,.
So calm on the listening ear,
And in that bright vision oh, once aga in
Those echoes wild I'll hear. ..'.
Oh, sing me once again that song; ,
Oh, still prolong that spell, ..
That makes my sad and weary heart,
With blissful raptures swell. ..,
Oh, let thy sweet and heartfelt lay,
Forever to me be ......a. ..
A talisman Of happiest hours,
When the heart was bright and free.
Oh, cease that strain, for now alas
The gems in childhood's wreath, ..
: Have Red forever from my breast,
And filled my heart with grief. 81.
No more, alas, thy silvery teHes ..
Bring gladness DER my soul,
Alas, it fills me now with grief
Which nothing can control. .. .
Thy song 90 sweet hath lost its charm
The voices Of the past,
Chime now requium Of false hopes,
Such visions could not last.
Yet, Ada, dear, chide me not,
Nor think my heart is cold,
For naught can break my h carts sad link
Like the memories of old.

Another Attempt to be Made.

QUEENSTOWN, July 5.-The steamer
Niagara, with her consort, the Gorgon,
arrived this morning.
Three attempts were made to lay the
cable, and several hundred miles of wire
have been lost. but there IL still sufFi-
Gent on board the two vessels to accom-
! plish the undertaking.
The squadron experienced very heavy
weather during the cruise. On the first
attempt ten miles Of cable were lost on
the second about twenty miles, and on
the 28th of June the cable was again
joined and about two hundred and fifty
miles laid out, when communication
ceasing to be received on board the Nj
agara, the cable was parted and the Nj
agara proceeded to this port.
Much to the surprise Of those on board
Of the Niagara, tho Agamemnon and
Valorous we're not in before them, as
was expected, from having had more
than two hundred miles start.
The accident is plainly attributable to
bad weather, which prevailed about the
time fixed for making the splice. In
deed, during the latter part of last week
the opinion was very generally expressed
that such result might be anticipated.
Though there has been another failure,
hopes are still high that success must be
ultimately obtained.
There is at present, even with the
argc loss, such surplusagc Of cable as
will warrant the renewal Of tho expedi.
ion without any further delay than that
involved in getting sufficient supply of
oal. Indeed ii is believed that false
alculation madO in respect to this supply

were that even should break occur

again as soon as she has finished coaling.

DEsTURcTIvE FIRE AT LEAyENwoRrn,
K. IA fire broke out at Leavenworth
Kansas Territory. about midnight on the
14th, which at one time threatened the
destruction of the denser portion of the
city. 1t originated in the green room
of the Union Theatre, at the corner of
Third and Delaware streets, and rapidly
communicated to the adjoining buildings,
thirty of which, principally including the
block bounded by Cherokee, Shawnee,
Second and Third streets, were reduced
to ashes. The loss is believed to be un-
der estimated at 800, 600, on which
there was only trifing insurance.
There is no apparatus or FIRE organiza-
ton in the city, but the conHagration
was providentially arrested by lull of
wind and copious shower of rain. A.
general panic was manifested at the
breaking out Of the fire, but the citizens
afterwards worked energetically, and the
fire was finally mastered about 3 o'clock.
