HOLLYWOOD.


The following exquisite lines are from the
pen Of noble woman OF Alabama, the
honored dust of whose gifted husband, in
life one of the most distinguished and
valued citizens OF the State, now reposes at
Hollywood.-Edito Meas.
twas cven-tide upon summers day
The lanbent hight and length'ning shadows lay
Upon chain Of hills which rose and fell
In bold ACTIVITY and nesting dell;
Along the graceful slopes and valleys fair
Luxuriant yerdurc waved; ana trees were mere mere
Filling their golden chalices with dew.
CIeaying the hills, in tidal majesty
A noble river rolled towards The sea-
Redeciing here and there the sunset dyes
In "counterfeit preseutment" of the skies.
And onward still, where foamng breakers surged
From eilv'ry spray, lay Silly, softly bright
As meszotints, bathed in the rosy light
And purple mist of evenings parting beams
Ethereal rs the imagery OF dreams
On either hand along the sinuous tide -.
An opening landscape, picturesque und wide,
In continuity OF hills and fields.
Rich In the garniture cultivation yields
The distant paths, and nearer heights around
With smiling villages and cities crowned.
Nature and Art thus vteing TO display
New beauties Oh the rivers winding way.
To meet the sky. this panorama spread
Out from silent city Of the dead.
Seauestercd from the hauntS of busy life.
It's sounds of noisy pleasure, toll, and strife
pcryadine, there were voices which rose e.
Attuned unto harmony IN keeping
With the scene-Ihe voice Of waters sweeping
Onward forever, deep as oceans roar
Remotely thuudring on some rugged shore
The voice of leaves and birds the whispering breeze
The soul of music signing thro' the trees
While chime from evening bells from distant splre
Like far, faint echoes filled the yesper choir.
Fair Hollywoodt With sacred awe profound
stood upon thy consecrated ground,
Where dearest Idols human hearts have known,
by Death, the dread iconoclast, o'erthrown,
Lie low There, too, the weary and opprest
Meath sculptnred stone or springtng green sWard
rest
The universal lesson these proclaim
AS ever thro' the ages still the same
In monumental pile, or nameless grave,
Dust un TO dust-the soul to God who gave.

and attractive widow of Colonel John E.
Moore, of Alabama. Before the war he was
a lawyer. legislator, and judge-a man re-
spected for his sterling character and shin
ing talent, and beloved for the geniality OF
his nature. Earnest in his political views,
he freely gave bis life to his country; and

touching tribute, worthy Of the patriot
