The Unbroken sIumber.

Yes. l shall restl Some coming day
When blossoms in the wind are dancing,
And when children in their mirthtul play,
Heed not the mournful crowd advancing
Up through the long and busy street,
They'll bear me to my last retreat.
Or else-it matters not-may rave,
The storms and blasts of winter weather,
Above the narrow, new>made grave,

Enough that l should know it not.
Beneath, in the dark. narrow spot.
For | shall sleep! As sweet a sleep
As ever graced achild reposlng, 4
Awaits me in the cell so deep.
Where / my weary evelids closing,
+ Atlength shall lay me down to rest,
Needless of clods above my breast.
Asleep! how deep will be that rest,
Free from life's fever moving wildly,
That when is past the earth's unrest,
Its bosomishall receive me mildly;
For not one dream of earth shall come,
: To invade the slumber of that home.
Oh, deep repose! Oh, slumber blest
Oh. Night of rest No storm, no sorrow,
No heavy string in my rest,
To meet another weary morrow
/ shall heed neither night nor dawn,
But still, with folded hands, sleep on.
Sleep on though just above my head,
Prowl sin and misery's haggard faces;
For the deep sleep ofthe dead
All sense of human woe grasses,
Palsies the heart and cures the brain,
OF every thought of outward pain.
Armies above my rest may tramp
Twill not disturb one rigid muscle!
I shall not heed their iron stamp

And yet, me thinks, if steps of those mel

'Twould tame the might of myrepose;
Sfiver the iron cords that bound ne
Save that know this cannot be,
For death disowns all sympathy.
Well, be it so; since I should yearn,
Anxiously watch for their appearing,
Gliding each lingering, late return,
And ever sad and ever fearing
Living life's drama DER again,
It's tragedy of hope and pain.
Then mourn not, friends when ye may lay
The clods of earth above my ashes
Think what a rest awaits my clay,
And smooth the mound with fearless lashes z;
Glad that the resting form within
Has done at length with woe and sin.
Think that with me the strife is DER,
Life's stormy, struggling battle ended;
Rejoice that | have gained that shore
To which though weak my footsteps tended
Breathe the blest hope above the sod,
And leave me to my rest with God

IF. Gov. Lubbock, of Texas, in his mes
sage to the Legislature of that State, profess
SEES some anxiety lest the Western free States
may try to get into the Confederacy. lie thinks
this would not be safe, and opposes 'the adj
mission of any State into the Confederacy
whose laws do not recognize and protect ne
gro slavery; and if any one Of the present
Confederate States should hereafter abolish
that divine institution, they are no longer to
be deemed members of the happy family Of
slave States" He favors a law for the seiz-
ure of all provisions held by sellers at exor-
bitant prices. The high price for corn being
attributed to the large quantity used in dis
t~illeries, Legislature is requested to suppress
them. A law to command the labor Of slaves

commended. Also, a law to notify citizens
who have not entirely absented themselves
from the State d~uringthe war, to return with
in a given time, under penalty of forfeiture of
lands and citizenship.

A Vivid Description Of shell Firing.
Yesterday morning and evening tryinen-
dous cannonade was opened along our whole
lines, and from the gunb0ats. 1t was the
savage exu!tations Of dozen 4ths Of July.
The sh IS were generally thrown, believe,
over the rebel redoubts, as far as possible
into the heart Of the city. From various
sources we learn that our shells have done
the enemy no little damage, destroying cat
tie. horses, and frequently men. The wo-
men and children are burrowing through the
bowels Of the city, like the ancient Chris
tians through the Catacofnbs OF Rome. The
entrance TO this subterranean abode is direct.

and although common one in the army, is
doubtless novel to many Of your readers
The evening might have been more tavora-

somewhat ohscured the pyro,echnics. The
first intimation that bomb was coming was

be seen slowly climbing the sky, momenta

Sometimes the shell explodes before reaching
the earth, breaking into puff of fame and
smoke. Then follows sharp crash that
makes the earth shake again. The whole
scene is Plutonian and Sublime. The rise of

The LARGEST Cry IN THE WoRLp.-A
very erroneous idea is INDUCED in by many
people in relation to the largest city in the
world many confidentially asserting that
London, or. as it is frequently termed, the
great metropolis. is far superior both in size
and number Of inhabitants. But this IS not
the case. Jeddo, the capital of Japan, is,
without exception, the largest and most pop.
ulous city in the world. It contains the vast
number Of 1,00O,OtO dwellings, and 5 ,OoO,-
600 of human souls. Many of the streets
are nineteen Japan serls in length, which is
equivalent to twenty-five English miles.
