O cr I did ewe p Ibrougo simco wilh thee, and lo, a dazzling smut- Biarsl Tdpv came on, I felt thslr drawing and iniplit; And some had dirk Wreo companions. Once (I Whm I ii mmber lhat) we sailed the tide, And found lair ibles, where no Isles used to bide, And mot there my lot love, win said to me, That '.was a long mistake: he had not died.

(A MAN BFBAKS.1 Once, a new world, the sunswart marinere Columbup, promised, and was so-e withstood, UnBraced. unhelpel, unheard for many a year; but let at )at to mtUe bis promise uoud. Promised and promltttng I g, most cletr, To better my dull heart wuh love's sweet kud,' My life with Its most reverent hope and fear, And my religion, with lair gratitude. O we must, part; the stars (or me contend, And all the wiiuis that blow ou all the seas. Through wonderful waste places I must wend, Aud with a promise my sad sonl appease. Promise then, promise much of lar-otf bliss; But ab, for present oy, give me one kiss. rvT Who velleth love should first have vanquished late. She loldcd up the dream in her deep heirt, lit r fair full lips were silent ou that smart, Thick Irinped eyes did on the Brasses wait What pood? ono eloquent blush, bat one, aud straight Tbe meaiiitiR of a life was known; for art 1 often foiU-d in plajinp; nature' part, And time holds nothing long inviolate. Earth's buried see'd Epilogs up slowly, or fast; Tbe ring came borne, tbat one in apes past Fluna to tbe keeping of unfathoraed seas; Aud golden apples on the niymic trees Were coughi aud found, and borne away at last, Though watched of the divine Uespcridea.

On Ibur day the barque I cit lit e. ySlb coal from Truon, went a-ihoru at Ctjimar. The lnsurgonts burnt five or the I an' est plantatons In tbe Juris 14-tiou ol Sngua I i h ca one near CientueRos, and -mother near Macaiu. It Is posinvtly asserted that the insuitPnt rener'Us Rre carrying out their de fern d plau ot burning everywhere. A detach ment of iDsi)rents had left Alvadrez, well mouited, to burn the plantations lo the vii tnty ifJabiicoa. The nlnters are tcrritted.

Order being restored in tbe jurisdiction of Santa Espintu, General Pueliois moving towards Puerto Prlucipe. The situation at Cienfuegos is unchanged. Tne disturbed condition ot tbe surrounding country prevents sugar from reaching Cienfuegos. At Trinidad, Remedios, and other markets It is generally estimated tnat the sugar crop this year will tall short by three-eighths of last yenr. Swears at our pons are firmer. There are rumors of engagements near to Holguin, but noibing defimteis known. ai Francisco. March 19. Mazatlan advices to March 8 have been received by steamer. The United Slates steamer Ke.-aca was In port. Trade was lungttibhtng, and the future prospects are discouraging. Tne steamer brings $207,000 in treasure liotn Mexico. The customs authorities of Mazatlan seized an American vessel, and attempted to ex.ort export oulies on a cargo of dye-wood. The vessel was only relieved on the bond of 1he American Consul, tbat such duties should be paid, if ac cording to lawj The Cuban Envoy The arrival of the special envoy, Senor Morales Scnaus, of the Provtmoual Kepublic of Cuba, in ew Yotk, which I have frequently ptedicted in these despatches, attracts more than ordinary attention nerc. tie Dears witu mm lormai cre dentials as tusoy ttxtrnordinary from President Ctspeaes, bnd is expected to arrive here on Tuea dav ot next wee k. 1 1 is to be regretted thai he did cot make his appearance sooner, as It would have been both expedient and advisable to bare settled his demands while Con-grrss is still iu session. To obviate this difficulty, however, It is proposed to pass a lav. before Congress adjourns. authorizing President Grant to recognize tbe new republic during the coining reces", if in his opiLiou it is proper to do so. It is evident that t he rtct nt position assumed oy our Governmeut regarding Cubau affairs has not only resulted in encouraging the insurgents, and hnailyinthe mission ot Henorbemus as Envoy, butnasaho bad a moral ehVct ou tbeso-calleJ legal go-veru ment ot tbe island, as Cap-aiu-Gcueral Dalce has recently exhibited extraordinary willingness to accede to the requests of Ad niral Hotf, in command of our fleet in the Mexican Gulf. On the wboie, the prospects of the Cuban patriots are much brighter now than they have been, which fact is owing to the encouragement, both material and moral, which thev have received irom the cltiztns and Government of this couutiv.
