MISCELLANEOUS.
Jealousy /; or, is he My Rival ?

-.
"Thank Heaven for my safe RETURN"
was the ejaculation that escaped my lips
as I stepped from the deck of the Cres-
cent City, snd once more found my
self in the great commercial emporium
of our western world.
Three years ago, [ left the very
wharf, a poor adventuer, in pursuit of
wealth amid the golden mines of Cali
forna, although thousands have fallen
victims of pestilence, or been sacrificed
to the malice and cupidity of man, yet
have I returned in health and possessed
of q sui1icicncy of the glittering dust,
to pass the remainder of my days in
affiuencc.
Twenty four hours subsequent to
the above reflections, [ found myself
at a country inn, near the stage coach
that was to bear me TO the next town.
While at Sacramento, Lhad forwarded
one hundred dollars, IN care of a firm of
New York, to my widowed mother,
but on my present arrival | learned
that it had never been received by her.
This gave me much uncasinCss, and
was a cause of fastening my departure
from the city, as | had vague appre-
hension that some calamity had befalIcn
her during my absence. Still | must
confess that this was not the only
cause of my anxious haste to reach my
native town. 1t was there resided the
love of my heart-that bright divinity
of my soul, whose image had been with
me through all the varied and CvcntfuI
scenes | had encountered since my de-
parture from r.
In the midst of reflections like the
above, the diligence arrived, and | was
soon seated and on my way to my ma
my companion-a tall, genteci, we'll
dressed personags, about my own age,
sEnSth whom [ was soon engaged in con
4eersation. Being somewhat commuui-
eative, he at length Informed me that
the place of his destination was the

At daybreak IS done.
And the cheeks of the morning
Are red with the sun;
When he sinks in his glory,

And calls up the planets
To blaze in the blue,
There is beauty. But where is the
beauty to see,
More proud than the sight of nation

When the beautiful! bond

Like q collar of light
On the bosom of Love;
When the moon in her mildncss

Like a banner of silver
Hung out in the sky,

in u newspaper Office in this city:

out his famous mon.
That stout man was IL Lieutenant i'll

twonty-six hours work and wages not
long since, in twenty-four consecutive

There is ono who was partner in tho
State printing whom for setting Spanish
