In tho hush of the winter midnight
the hush of tho sleeping house
= When no weird wind stirs in the gloomy frs
" The spirits of storm to reuse nf
When never CLINT of moonlight
Cleans from tho great black sky,
BY the red fires glow, it shoulders low,
We crouch, my letters and I.
; My letters, they licwhcrc tossed them,
~ Ohtho crimson hcarthrug there,
Still, vivid, and bright, in the ru,ldy light,
as cobras in their lair.
1push the hair from my forehead,
Tint burns and throbs so fast,
Thinking the willie, with strange dull smilc
II ufthc task must do ut last
Who knows but ], tho comfort
Those foolish letters have been?
The depth anu scopc-thc strength and hope
OF those stlcaycs' that arc always ssrrccn'?'
Who knows but l, how sadly,
Tomorrow, and my dream
by the ashes grey will weep anu say,
"Woe's me for that vanished CLEAN.
.Thc glcam of idle gadness,
The glimmcr Of memories bright,
That hid in each line of those letters of mine
Those letters burn .o-night?'
Ah well the dream was folly;
It's JOY was an idle thing,
Itshopc was lie, and its loyalty
Died of q whispers sting.
So n kiss-thc last-io my letters,
a rcsolutc hand, and-thcre
Do the sad dark eyes of my Paradise
: Meet mine through tic fierce flames flare?

Juarez not Captured---Interesti Ac-


counts.
HAVANA, Feb. 20.-A French steamer
arrived here on the 18th, with dates from
Vera Cruz to the 18th, and from the City
of Mexico to the 9th. The report that
President Juarez had been taken prisoner
grew out of an unexpected attack made by
Miramon with 1900 men upon Zacaticas.
Miramon's official dispatch says that j JuareZ
escaped owing to the velocity of his car
riages. EScobedo arrived upon the scene
next day, and gave battle to Miramon at
San Jacinto, and completely routed him,
taking 5000 prisoners and capturing all his
artillery.
Liceago, Imperial commander at Guiana
juato, had been defeated by Rincon Gallar-
edo. and that city had fallen into the hands
of Liberals.
Maximilian's Minister Taber, with q
strong brigade, was routed while coming
left 500 dead and wounded on the fiell of
battle. &c
Marquese was reported to have lOOO0
men at the City of Mexico, of whom only
1000 were armed.
Eight hundred soldiers garrisoning Pue-
bla had declared for the Republic and gone
with ZamacOna, and it was expected that
as soon as the French had left, the remain
der would take possession of the city and
pronounce for JuareZ.
Generals CaStlenau, Depotier and others,
and also Madame Bazaine, have arrived
here on the French steamer. Several mem
bers of MaXimilian's Ministry were also
among the passengers. Marshal Bazaine
arrived at Peubla on the 9th inst.
