THURSDAY MORNING, JUNE %, 1859
A MEDLEY S0NG

The moon was shining silver bright?
All hl"odlcss lay the untrod,lcn snow,
When freedom from her mountain height,
Exclaimed, "Now don't be folisl, Joe"
An hour passed on, The Turk awokc,
y humble bee went laundering by,
To hover i'll the sulphur smoke,
And spread its pail upon the sky.
His ccloing axe the settler swung;
lie was Il la'l Of high degree,
And deep the rcarly caves among,
He heard, ooh, woclman, spare That tree =
Io'"l roars the wild inconstant blast,
And cl"udlcss sets the sun at even:
When twilight lcws arc iallin. fast,
And roll: the thunder drum of heaven.
Oh! ever thus. from clildhood'S hour,
ly torch AMI trumpet fast arrnycd;
Beneath ypu ivy-mantlcd tower,
The hull-ir"g croaks his scrrnadc.
My love is like the rel, rcd rose,
lie bought ring with posc true;
Sir barney Eodkin broke his nose,
And, Saxon. am Rodcrick Dhu.

Some fifteen years ago Humboldt prc.
sided over tie annual meeting Of Nat.
ur;.lists, then held at Berlin. In his open

merits Of Linnrus. lie knew of l.innrus

to me to apply to himself with far greater
i"rce anu on m enlarged scale. In that
speech, too, remember, lie quoted his
friend Schiller. humboldt was, in Il mark
cd manner. Of poetic temperament.
do not believe that without it, he would
have been able to receive those living im-
prcSsions of nature, and tc combine what
was singly received, those vivid descriptions
and i'll language so true and transparent,
that they surprise the visitor of the scenes
to this day. He had that constructive i'm

An Interesting Letter.-The finest of
wits, Oliver Wendell Holmes, sent two
poetical letters to the Post Office of an
Episcopal Fair at Pitts6eld: In one Of them
the first stanza was:
Fair lady, whosos'r thou art,
Turn this poor leaf with tenderest care,
And-hush, o hush thy breathing heart
The ONE thou lowest will be there"
On turning the "poor leaf" there was
found one ,doller bill With some verses
beginning:
"Fair lady, lift thine eyes aud tell!
II this Is not truthful letter,
This is the one [ y thou lovest we'll '"'-@
