Som ething Left Undone.
BY HENRY W. LoNGFELLow.
Labor with what zeal we will,
Something still remains undonei
Something, uncompleted still,
Waits the rising ofthe sun.
By the bedside, on the stair,
At the threshold, near the gates,
With Its menance or its prayer,
Like mendicant it waits:
Waits, and will not go away
Waits, and will not be gainsaid,
By the cares ofyesterday,
Each to-day is heavier made,
Till at length 1t is, or seems,
Greater than our strength can bear
As the burden Of our dreams,
Pressing on us everywhere!
And We stand from day to day,
Like the dwarfs of time gone by,
Who, as Northern legends say,
On their shoulders held the sky.

DARCY MAoEE's LAST MARES NEsrS-As we
anticipated, this ex-Irish rebels stoey about
the contemplated federal invasion of Canada
has received a prompt exposure. On being
forced into an explanationRf the facts in the
Canadian Assembly, 1t came out that his state
ment was based entirely on an after dinner
joke of Mr.. Seward, who, meeting with Mr..
Theodore Hart, of Montreal (Magee's inform
anti, at Mr.. Moses H. Grinnells, in New York,
took it into his head to play upon the credulity
Of that simple-minded individual, and to cram
him with declarations Of the big things which
the federal government intended to do in the
event Of difficulty with England. This was
no doubt very improper and very undignifed
on the part OF our Secretary Of State; but It
has served, nevertheless, to cover Magee with
rdcule, the House receiving The explanation
with shouts Of laughter. The fun Of the
thing, however, did not reach its climax
until the Hon. John A. Macdonald en-
deavored to throw the shield of his pro-
lection over Magee, and expressed his con-
viction of the seriousness Of the declarations
attributed to the American Secretary OF State.
or course the House went into fits over this,
and its satisfaction wass still further increased
when the Attorney General, in sharp and
telling reply, demolished the whole statement,
and assured 1t that, while the government
would do all that the country expected Of II
a. regards the defences Of the provinces,
Il would not be led into excessive outlay for
the purpose Of gratifying those who made thls
subject their whole capital and stock in trade.

RESOURCES OF Our SHIPYARDs.-This week
Mr.. Webb will launch from his yard the wooden
hull of the iron-clad frigate which he is build.
ing for the Italian navy This week also there
will be launched over in Jersey another of the
powerful gunboats which are being Constructed
for our own feet Of iron-clads Scarcely .
week passes, as we stated the other day, that II
does not receive an addition Of some vessels Of
this class, presenting features of Improvement
on those already built. What do these facts
proves That our shipyards and iron works
possess not only resources sufficient to make oil
the additions to the federal navy that may be
required, but to supply other governments with
vesselsof-war. England and France had better
take note Of this fact. They will see from It
that while we are in q position to confront
them with as large Heet Of iron-clads as they
can, singly or combined, bring against US, we
can at the same time furnish other Powers with
whom they may have dificulties with all the war
vessels or privateers they stand In need Of The
example Of England removes all scruples on this
head, and our shipbuilders are too enterpris-
ing not to make the most Of 1t.

arisen between the Mayor and ComrpeA Soss'
Gil relative to the three million ordSnsn> 'V'
There can be very little doubt that the whole
trouble lies with our very conscientious Chaei
Magistrate.
1t appears from his own letter, as well
as from the remarks Of Mr.. Waterbury,
that Mr.. Opdyke had abundant oppor-
tunity Of obtaining an ordinance which he
might have signed without the least scruple,
had he been pleased to do 80. Mr.. Waterbury
states that when the ordinance was drawn by
himself, in lieu of an imperfect one previously
passed, he took it to the Mayor and submitted
it to him. But his Honor being careful poll
tician, said that he would not commit him
self" Again, he had frequent opportunities to
suggest such amendments in the document as
he required before it passed both boards. He
had several interviews with Aldermen and
Councilmen. A few days elapsed between the
time of its passage in each Board; but all this
while Mr.. Opdyke is as dumb as an oyster. 1t
is only after it is passed and awaits his sigma
ture to become law that his objections are
presented. He wants q new clause relative to
the fremen. He wants that drafted men shall
be mustered in beyond all hope Of release,
before they receive the relief which the ordi-
nance provides. Now, why were not these al
terstions suggested when the bill was before
him, and had not been acted upon by the Com.
mon Council?
The probability now is that the Common
Council will pass the ordinance in spite oil him,
if he should veto it. Or if he should simply
refuse to sign it within the ten days, which will
expire, we believe, tomorrow, it will then be
law without his approval. Meantime we
have no doubt that money enough will be
raised to relieve those in immediate need, until
the ten days required after the veto is an
nonnced have elapsed, when the Common
Council will come together, re-enact the ordi
nance, and furnish relief to the drafted men.
whether Mr.. Opdyke likes or not.
