A blessing to a city is beautiful garden or grove
to which the citizens can resort to enjoy a sum
meris afternoon. Although there are many beau
tful gardens in the vicinity of the city, there is
place of public resort, We believe where families
and parties enjoy the healthinspiring breeze of
simmer evening. A day or two since we visited
the Horticultural Garden Of E. A. RAwoRTH, Esq.,,
in North Nashville and while there we were fOrci-
bly, struck with its peculiar adaptation for such
purpose. We suggested the matter to the proprie>
tor, and were grsti6ed 10 find that he thought rah-
er favorable Of the suggestion. He could prepare
his Gsrden for such purpose with very little
trouble, and we doubt not he would be literally
pstronized. We have referred TO this matter that
those of our citizens who "coOped up" in the
city during the heat of the summer may agitate
the subject aud thus place of pleasant re-
sort after the days toll is over.

undenia5ly the BEST ALE manufactured either in
this or the old country, st the present day

WAR VENENTS IN THE NORTH

From an editorial in The New York Herald of the 9th inst, we extract the following paragraphs relative to the warlke prepara- tions now being made in the Northern States:
 "We learn also that the United States troops in the Northern States are being rap idly put upon a war footing At the labrato- ries, destructive pyrotechnics, with balls and cartridges, are being prepared Large con- | tracts for ambulances and field filters have been given out by the War Department. Within the past week five hundred additional troops have arrived in Washington, forming an aggregate of about one thousand men, with five batteries of light artllery-a quota sufi- cient for an army of five thousand men. Gen Scott has also ordered large supplies of ammu- milton to be sent to Fort McHenry.
 In the Northern navy-yards no less activi- ty prevails. The equipment of vessels of light draught is being pushed with energy, so as to have ready, in short time, a coast guard to cruise in the Southern waters. The steamer Water Witch is already under orders to be fitted out at Philadelphia; the steam gun-boat Pawnee, also at the same place; the Harriet Lane, at this port the brig Perry is now being speedily prepared at Brook yn the brigs Dol phin and Bainbridge are approaching readiness at Norfolk and Bos- ton and the steam gun-boats Crusader, Wy andotte and Mohawk, now in the Gulf, can all be concentrated in few days.
 Thse preparations, and especially those so actively and quietly prosecuted under Gene ral Sc0tts orders, added m this city by his son-in-iaw, Col. Scott look warlke. The lat ter IS actively experimenting operations here. Recruiting Is in active progress. There are on Governors and Bedioe Islands, at this time, 6O0 troops, chiefly recruits, who are be- ing actively drilled
 These movements have not passed unob- served by people in Virginia and Maryland some of whom have charged that the concen- tratIon of the warlike arrangements at Wash ington IS to form the basis of coercive army with the view of overawing those two States and thus prevent their withdrawal and keep them in the Union.
 Military men consider that the present force of regular troops now in Washington Is quite ample to repel 10000 irregular troops, had such number designed to prevent Lincoln's inauguration Gen. Scott continues to order troops and munitions of war to Washington and to concentrate others at New York and other convenient places. The Corps of En- glneers have been removed from W est Point to Washington, measure not resOrted to ex- cept in case the country is engaged in war The garrison at that place has been left with out single regular soldier, thing, which, il is said, has not previously occurred since its establishment

LN4GIN-1TION.

To thee goddess of fancy, would fan address
 my lay.
 Reason may teach us to dive into the dark recesses of nature, and philosophy lead Us to examine her hidden works science may throw open the portals of truth, and wisdom guide us to a knowledge of our fellow-man; but 1t is for thee, imagination, to soar above all these, and, by thy magic power, to glide through the wide range of possibility.
 Aided by thee, man can perform within the narrow sphere of his own mind all that the pen of the historian has transcribed or the hand of the poet depicted. He can range his armies, fight his battles, and display to his de- lighted fancy his character as mighty man of valour; or, inspired by the heavenly muse, he can languish in the soft twilight, or breathe in the sweet beauty of moonlight vision.
 Borne Un the wings of the morning, waited by the perfumes of Arabia, he knows no boun- dary to his flight, no curtaiment to his fancy. Rowing through the bondless extent of infn- ite space he discovers new spheres, new suns, with all their attendant planets. He traces the fiery comet through its vast unmcasured orbit: at one time on the utmost verge of the universe-at another, scorched by the tervent heat of summer sostice.
 He travels back to the souce of time and beholds the mighty void, from whence
 These worlds were calfd to light,
 and sees them arise in beauty and harmony at the voice of the Almighty, and commence their magnificent course trhoug the wide range of heavens domains.
 Such is the imagination ofman. Confined within the bounds of reason what are we not capable of viewing or performing, when we court its infuece! But, like the airy vision of dream, it vanishes with the morning dawn, leaving nothing behind, but the idea of its power, and d knowledge of the unwarrant- able scope of the human mind.
