MISCELLANEOUS.

That portion of the Queens Address to
Parliament relative to affairs on this Con.
tinent, is as follows:
1T is question Of great Importance,
and one which might have led TO very Sc.
iious consequences. 1t arose between her
Majesty and the Government Of the I. S.
OF North America, owing TO the seizure
and forcible removal Of l0ur passengers
from on board British mail packet by
the commander Of ship Of war Of the
United States. The question has been
satisfactorily settled by the restoration Of
the passengers to British protection, and
by "A disavowal of the United States Gov.
ernment of any act OF violence committed
by the naval officer. Tho friendly rela-
tions between her Ma iesty Government
and the President Of the United States
are therefore unimpairea. Her Majesty
willingly appreciates the loyalty and pat
riotism which have been manifested on
this occasion by her Majesty's North Ame-
rcan subjects The wrongs committed by
various parties aud by successive govern
ments in Mexico upon foreigners resident
within Mexican Territory, and for which
no satisfactory redress could be obtained,
have led the convention between her
Majesty, the Emperor Of the French and
the Queen Of Spain. for the purpose Of
regulating combined operations on the
Coast Of Mexico to obtain that redress
which has hitherto been withheld. that
convention, aud papers relating to the
subject will BE- laid before you.

POETRY.
From the Bellefontaine Gazette.
RYE COFFEE.

The following is worth reading, as it /
pointed in several directions 81. a..
Last night heard Wide-Awake
Whose face was very long
With cape and lamp al! BY his side,
A singing Of a song.
The song it was pretty one,
And charmed my li,tning ear;
l only mind the chorus now,
And will siDs it here.
&c." CHORUS.
Oh, Rye Coffee
You're sweet enough for me,
Without u grain Of sugar. Il.
The niger can be free!
saw the cape, ami we'll l knew
Id seen it oft before
And oft d seen that Lard Oil Lamp
Go z,z zag past my door;
But now the cape was old and torn--
The lamp il had no" ile,"
Yet sweetly there that Vide wake
Sat singing ali the while:
Oh, Rye Coffee!
You re sweet enough for me,
Without u grain OF sugar, if
The niger can be Tree.
would not say that Wide Awake
Was singing of a lie;
| think that Java does not suit
His taste as we'll as Rye
The mau who'd give Old Abe his vote
And pass the Douglas by,
Would likely spurn The Java cup,
And swallow down The Rye!
CHORUS
Oh. Rye Coffee!
The Wide. Awake's delight
l shall remember long how we'll
He sung of you that night
l wonder if that Wide.Awake,
As he sat singing there,
Intended to repudiate
His taxes Just and fair?
l wonder if that Wide.Awake
Was posted we'll as
That he was cheattss Government
When drinking Of the Rye?
CHORUS.
Oh. Rye Coffee
toi Wide Awakes You'll do
But not for patriots who'd give
The Government its due.
Consounded be Rye Coffee,
Corn Coffee and all that!
Bat | vii! sill drink Java you
May safely bet your hat.
Confuunled be the men who made
The tax needi,ul thing -
But I've better chorus here,
Which please stand up and sing
CHORUS.
Go way Cuttee
The master servant be
But let US all pray for the time
When Coffee shall be free.

THE IIONORED DEAD.

Hallowcd be The memory of the honored
dead, who have nobly shed their blood TO
crush rebellion against the government. -
Let their names be held in grateful re-
membrane, and their bereavet families
comfortably provided for. The ode of
Collins is familiar to most readers, but it
is SO beautiful and appropriate that it will
bear re.perusal:
How sleep the brave who sunk to rest,
b. all their country S wishes olest,
When Spring, with dewy finger cold
Returns to deck their aha lowed mould,
She there shall dress II sweeteg sod
Than EaHcy's feet have ever troa -
By fairy hands their knell is rung.
By forms unseen their d,rge is sung
There Honor comes, a pilgrim gray,
To bless the turf that wraps their clay,
And Freedom shall awhile repair
To dwell weeping hermit there.

Patriotism Without Condition.

The following letter is from the Mayor of
Boston, Hon. J. NJ. Wightman, and was adj
dressed to the President Immediately on the
publication of Gov. Andrews letter, propo-
sing conditions in regard to the question Of
slavery, as efectiDg further requisition by
the President for volunteers. The letter
has the ring of true patriotism:
MAYORS OFFICE, CITY HALL BosToN,l
May %, 1862.
SRI am induced to: write you this
from sense of duty, for the purpose Of re-
pudiating in the most emphatic manner,
the idea that the Governor of Massachu.
sctts is authorized to speak for the loyal
citizens of the State lin proposing any con-
ditions in regard to the question Of slavery
as affecting further requisition by you
for volunteers. There may, possibly, be
small sections or towns in the common.
wealth, where the doctrine Of emancipa.
tion and arming the slaves is regarded
with favor, and might be made an excuse for
non enlistment; but I assure your Excel
lency that, in Boston, and, believe, in a
large majority of the other cities and towns
in the State, the mingling of questions in
relation to slavery with the crushing out of
the present rebellion, is viewed with the
strongest feelings of disapprobation, while
the efforts you have made to resist the inter.
polation of this discordant element, and to
restore the Union on the basis of the con-
stitution, as evinced in your appointment Of
Governors Johnston and Stanley. your sus-
tanning General McC Clellan, and your general
conservatism in all essential matters per-.
tanning to the conduct of the war, has given
hope and confidence to every Union-loving
heart in our State.
" Notwithstanding the opinions of the Gov-
ernor, believe that Massachusetts may be
relied upon for any call you may make upon
her patriotism in the present emergency, and
that her citizens generally have no sympathy
with those who are agitating the question
of emancipation at this time, and I am
confident that if this subject was introduced
in conformity with the views of Governor
Andrew, it would produce serious, if not
an irreparable, injury to the cause of enlist.
ment. '--~-
beg you, therefore, to make your re.
QUESTION upon the State of Massachusetts
with confidence in the loyalty and devotion
of her citizans, and with the assurance that
Boston will as cheerfully respond in the fu.
ture as in the past to any demand of
the government. Trusting that you
will continue to be firm and reso>
lutte in your endeavors for the res.
toration and welfare of our common
country, and in iguoring all other issues
which tend to prevent the accomplishment
OF this great OBJECT, l have the honor to be,
sir, with great respect, your obedient ser.
want, -' i2 es4'.

Different Opinions Upon Conducting
q War. .fAt

y
There have always been, in all countries,
divers sentiments and ideas, with regard to
the mode of carrying on great war,
amongst the nations who were engaged in
the contest Shakespeare draws parallel we'll
suited to our present times, in his First
Part to King Henry vi, when England
was convulsed with factions at home, and
was also engaged in a losing warfare in
France. His description Of the state of
things in England then, may be aprositely
quoted now, when be says:
Among the soldiers this is mutter'd;
That here you maintain several factions; a8
And, whilst field should be dispatch'd and
fought,
You are dssputing of your generals! % .hpa92
One would have lingering wars, with little cost;
Another would fly swift, but wanteth wings;
A third man thinks, without expense at ali,
By guileful fair words, peace may be obtained.
The poets Cassandra never struck a
more truly prophetic vain than be has ex4
hibited in these few lines. which are so full
of the experince Of nations, before and since
the wars of the Roses of York and Ian.

CANADA. -.
I must confess that in going from the
States into Canada, an Englishman is struck
by the feeling that be is going from rich
er country into one that is poorer, and from
greater country into one that is less.
could not enter Canada without seeing
and hearing and feeling that there was less
of enterprise around me than in the States
less of general movement, and less of
commercial success. To say why this is
