Your voiceless lips, oh flowers, living preach

Each cup pulpit every leaf a book,
Supplying TO nay fancy numerous teachers,
From loneliest nook.

And tolls its perfume on the passing air,
Makes Sabbath in the fields, and ever ringeth

But to that fame most catholic and solemn
Which God hath planned.
Ts that cathedral boundless our wonder,
Whose quenehless lamp the sun and moon

Its choir the wind and waves, its organ thunder,
Its dome the sky.
There amid solitude and shade, l wander
Through the green aisles, or stretched upon

Awed by the silence, reverently ponder
The ways of God.

[Bret Harte IN the Atlantic Monthly for Ssptsmberl
A GREYPORT LEGEND. (l7s7.
They ran through the streets of the seaport town,
Ahey PeereI rom @ the decks oi the shlps WheFe
The cold sea-fSsg tSs that cams whitening down ~
Was never cold or white aS they.
'Ho, Starbuck and Pinckny and Tenderden
Run Tor your shallOps, gather your men,
Scatter your boats on the lower bay"
Good cause for feari in the thick midday
The hulk that lay by the rotting pier,
Filled with the children in happy play
Parted its moorings and drifted clear.
Drlfted clear beyond reach or call
Thirteen children there were in all
All adrift in the lower bay
Said hand faced skipper ''God help US ALI
She will not float till the turning tider'
Said his wife, ''My darling will hear nv call,
Whether in sea or Heaven she bide."
And she lifted quavering voice and high,
Wild and strange a sea-bird's cry,
Till they shuddered and wondered at her side
The fog drove down on each laboring crew,
Yelled each from each and the sky and shore.
There was not sound but the breath they drew,
And the lap OF water and creak Of oar;
They felt the breath Of the downs fresh blown
But not from the lips that had gone before.
They come no more. But they tell the tale
That when fogs are thick on the harbor reef
The maekerel fishers shorten sail
For the signal they know will bring relief
r. For the voice of children, still at play
Ina phantom hulk that drifts Away
4hroush Channels whose waters never fail.
It Is but a foolish shipman's tale,
theme for poets idle page,
But still when the mists OF doubt prevail,
And We lie becalmed by the shores of Age,
We hear from the misty troubled shore
The voice of the children gone before,
Drawing the soul to its anchorage.

LONDON TO BE FoRTIFIED.-London
is at last to be fortified! The Army and
Navy Gazette says: "The extraordina-
ry effect in the duration of the war pro-
duced by the Notifications of Paris has
drawn the attention of all thoughtful
professional men to the subject of for
tifying capitals generally. 1t has also,
we are happy to learn, attracted the
attention of our own War Office, and
it is understood that the fertilization
branch there, under Sir +. Chapman
and Colonel Jervois, c. B., has been
directed to prepare a careful scheme
for detecting London. Neither Mr.
Cardweh, nor any one else, is likely to
propose any vote on this account, to
begin series of Forts Valerien. All
that will be done will be to make such
a careful study of the hills which en- :
closes this great basis of the Thames
in which we live, that we should have
ready made plan whereby to turn
our navies on to the entrenching of q
set of rough field works, should the
Continental armies unite to imperil our
metropolis. In such cases we should
have the labor and the guns, and
should try to create a big Sebasterpool
It is quite clear from this that the Gov
eminent have a clue to the future in
teption of the new civilizers of Europe,
the Prussians! But it strikes us, how
ever, that under Mr.. Caldwelfs regime
we shall have to ccntent ourselves
with Il very mild SebasterpOol.

ANCIENT AMERICAN GIANTS. Since
the result OF Governor Arny's explora-
lions in New Mexico was made public
there has been no discovery of more
interest to the American archaologist
than the one alleged to have been made
| recently in Iowa, on the line of the pro-
jected Dubuque and Minnesota Rail
road. The worilmen, while en- gagged in
excavatipg for the road, in the lime
stone, at the foot of a bluff, are said to
have come upon flat stone covered
with strange characters. This being
removed, opened the way into pas
sage about four feet wide and six feet
high, leading directly into the heart of
the bluff. At the distance of about
fifty feet from the entrance another
stone, similar to the first, had to be re-
moved, when a large chamber revealed
itself, cut out of the solid rock, about
twenty-five feet square and about
twenty feet high. The floor was hard
and smooth, while the walls and roof
were carved, in sort of rude basso- re-
liero, with figures of birds, trees, stars,
seTpeRts and chariots. The south wall
was adorned "with representation OF
The sun, and Immediately below this
the figure of a man in the act of step
ping out of a boat, and holding in his
hand dove" So far the revelations
were not very different from, many
previous ones in similar caves and rock
chambers throughout our Western
country. But the most curious part OF
the discovery was yet to come. A fiat
slab in the floor of the cavern being
raised, revealed below vault filled
with skeletons of unusual size, the lar.
gest being seven feet eight inches high
by actual measurement. BY the side
of each skeleton was set small case
filed with yellow earth, beueath which
were found animal bones aud particles
of animal matter. The skeletons were
placed in semi circle toward the
south west.

FEES OF ASSESSORS AND TAX COL
LECToRs.-Along with the proposed
new revenue bill which passed the
House on Wednesday, is printed
statement containing the assessment
of all the real and personal property in
the State, amounting to $243, so, ga,
the compression for making the assess
ment rolls S171, 472, commissions to be
allowed for the State taxes of 1870
coliectable in 1871, less 90 per cent.
for taxes which will remain unpaid at
the end of the year SI74, 496 and es-
timated commissions which are to be
paid to collectors of parish taxes $102,-
H6-making the total amount of fees
of assessors and tax collectors during
the year 1871, based upon the rolls OF
1870, more than four hundred and
forty-eight thousand dollars. Add to
this the cost of collecting licenses,
which will be more than sixty thou
sand, and we have a magnificent
grand total of more than half million
of dollars to be paid for operating the
machinery of the revenue law. In
1869 the pay of assessors and collec
tors amounted to S350,851.
Fhe total amount received into the
State Treasury from taxes and licen-
ses during the first eleven months OF
1870 was S6,537 $50. Adding 5000, 1000
for the month of December, the total
will be about seven and one third mil
lions. If the collections of the present
year are about the same as those of the
last, the cost of assessment and collec-
lions will be about one dollar in every
thirteen collected.-[New Orleans Pic
