America's Discovery.
BY LORD BYRON
The white man. landed ;—need The rest.be told?
The New World stretch'd its dusk hands to the
Old;
Each was. to each a marvel, and the tie
Of wonder warmed to better sympathy. ,
Kind was the welcome of the sun-born sires,
And,kinder still their daughters', gentler fires.
Their union grew : the children of the storm
Found beauty link'd with many a dusky form ;
While these in turn admired the paler . glow,
Which seed so white in climes that knew no
snow.
Thechase, the me, the liberty to ream,
The soilwhere every cottage show'd a home ;
The sea-spread net, the lightly-lounch'd canoe,
Which stemra'd the studded Archipelego,
O'er whose blue bosom.rose the , starry isles ;
The healthy slumber earn'd by sportive toils;
The palm, the loftiest Dryad of the woods,
Within whose bosom infant Bacchus broods,
" • e eagles scarce build, higher than the crest
'eh shadows ,o'er the vineyard in her breast;
The cave feast,, the yam, the cocoa's root,
Which bears ,at once the cup, and milk and
fruit;
The bread-tree, which, without the plow-share,
yields
The unreap'd harvest of unfurrow'd , fields,
And bakes its.unadulterated loaves
Without a farm* in unpurchased groves,
And flings off famine from its fertile breast;
A priceless market from the gathering guest;—
These, with the-luxuries of seas and woods,
The airy joys of social solitudes, .
Tamed, each rude wanderer to the sympathies
Qf those who were more happy if less wise.
Did more:than. Europe's discipline had done,
And civilized civilization's son I"
"Died LOt Night."
Coupled with the bridals, printed in little
tpye, leading off the advertisements, josteled by
a sorry jest, hard behind a market, close be
hind a cotillion, what a place a newspaper is,
to pnt a death in.
We are reading something about a home, and
at once we are in a 'place of graves ; we are
looking over the testimonials to the Elixir of
Life, and come, before we- know it, upon a
"Died last night."
If there were only some retired and shaded
earner In amewspaper, with a willow or an urn
1 it, where the names that have no owners,
could be recorded, and we could go when weary
!with rambling through the columns of bustle
and business, and read ; and think how surely
;one after another ' all names tend thither ; those
Ithat stand at the head of the column editorial
lin capitals ; those that are pointed at with a
finger, and wonderedt over with exclamation
points, and asked after with interrogations ;
those that were brides . the other day, and are
s.et;:but with new bridegrooms ; those
that were hercts; - and- - found -- ptaoa -is the
"leader;" or beautiful and woven in a wreath
for "Poet's Corner."
But there is no such retreat—nothing but a
narrow black line like-this to keep the
world out ; to prevent the railway train, whose
times are advertised below, from running over
the name and obliterating it. And so it 13 like
a grave in a thoroughfare, covered with dust,
and Jarred by passing wheels; it gives us pain
to look at it, and we are glad it is only for a
day.
"Died last night." It was nobody that you
know, you think, andso you pass onto a "sale"
or a "bargain" that you see beyond, and forget
that there was ever such a name or such a dy
ing in 4 the world. How apt we are to forget
that there are those though, who can hardly
see the name for the heavy rain that is falling,
while the heaven overhead is bright and clear ;
that eyes do rest thereon, that see a world put
out where' you discern a name ; that wonder
how the' sun can shine, since sun down 'came to,
them ; who hear with their hearts the'idle laugh!
that's passing on the wind.
"Died last night." A pleasant time to die,l
but 'not last night—Lah, no--some' other night, a
great while yet to come. - To go' abroad by the
true' light of stars, to find the'way out from the
port of earth by everlasting lamps.
"Died last night." How many died ; howl
many . beautiful and good ; how many young;
and fair ; how many revered and wise. Some
that you and we know ; perhaps one that you
and we. loved. We shall:hear of it by and by,.
and then we shall remember that it was last
night she died.
To die at any time "is a dread and awful
thing ;" to die when day is brimking ; to die at
high noon ; to die when the pearl and gold of
morning and the glow of noon are all blended
upon the palette of the West, till the sky looks
like a great tinted shell thrown up upon the
shore of Eternity. But to go from this world
to that, in the night, by the pale light of stars,
is most solemn'and beautiful of all. And then
there's a dignity about that going away alone;
that wrapping the mantle of immortality about
us ; that putting aside with a pale hand, the
azure curtains that are drawn around this cradle
of a world ; that venturing: away from home for
the first time in our lives, for we are not dead ;
there is nothing dead to speak of ; and seeing
foreign countries that are not laid down on any
maps we know about. There must be lovely
lands somewhere starward, for none ever return
that go there, and wevery much doubt whether
any would return if they could.
"Died last night." Well, in a few days,—
as soon as they can—they take down the old
family Bible somewhere, and they write a de
parture—the clearance of a soul. Sometimes it
is a bud, but as rare Ben. Johnson said, so
everybody thinks,—
"Twas but a bud, yet did contain
More sweetness than shall bloom again.
sometimes a blossom wafted from the tree,
by some returning tireath, to heaven. How
different the record on the other page, a year or
so ago, when they set down the new name—
the same name they write now, but ownerless ;
that will be thought of, but not old loud; that
may be heard a - few times, but not in the
crowd, not in the merry festival, but in the twi
light hours, a thome, and then be syllabled no
more.
Tua mums of non-commissioned officers in
our army who have been promoted to second
lieutenants since the lst of October now amounts
to forty-five. Another list of promotions may
shortly be expected, as many of the sergeants in
the old regiments have been recommended for
commissions by their commanding officers.
Some of the non-commissioned officers recently
promoted have been bat a short time in the
service, and are not even citizens of the United
States. This, however, is no reason why they,
should not prove loyal and efficient officers, but
it, is another evidence of the impetus which war
gives to inat" air promotions.

He reports that after passing Newtown our
troops, met with various obstructions in their

thrown across the road.
Soine of the latter were quickly removed,
while others were avoided by marching round
them.
They. • a • •

at Oak EMI.
Between that point and Drummondtown, an
bther battery was found, in which eight guns
were mounted. Theplace was entirely deserted

They also tbund another deserted work eight
miles beyond Drummondtdwri.
Up to the time Capt. Haley left there had
been the smooth bore guns captured, but no

The Call for Troops Promptly Res
ponded to,
I===
1L5218.613 -CTSY, Nov. 25
The Santa Fe and Carson City mail, with
dates to the 16th; arrived this morning, two
days ahead of time. No through passengenr.
At a, meeting of the merchants of
_•Santa Fe,
on the 7th itstant, it was resolved that they
would endores for the government to any
amount that May be advanced to the territory.
This action Was taken consequence of the
scarcity of Coin which laui heretofore made up
the circulating medium in ' the transaction. of
business, and has from ' &true excuse almost en
tirely disappeared, causing an unusual stringen
cy in the money market.
The Call of the Goverrunent of New Mexico
for 12,000 militia men to garrison the different
posts in the Territory has been promptly re
operated to. The whole number will in a short
time be reported for duty.
A light battery, commanded by Lieut. An
derson, U. S. A, left Santa Fe for - the south on
the 9th inst. An important movement in that
direction is anticipated: •
Gen. Hatch and family have left for the east.

among the childrenon the• Rio Bajo. It has

The Memphis Avalanche, of the 16th, has the .
following :
It is reported that Parson Brownlow has left
Knoxville with thirteen guns, and was syinpa
thizing with the Union movement in that quar
ter. The town of Knoxville is under martial
law. On the night of the insurrection, last
Friday, it was said that signal rockets werefired
all over the mountains, and at the same time
efforts were made to burn the bridges.
Six who attempted to .burn the Strawberry
Plain Bridge have been arrested and identified.

Waerirnat can facilitate military operations
is just now of special importance to us. The
electric telegraph has already been employed in
effecting rapid and certain communication be
tween various divisions of the army, and this,
obsiously, is a most valuable application of the
invention to the purposes of war. But a porta
bletelegraph, devised expressly for military use,
and which is far preferable to any lines laid per
manently, has beensuccessfully tried in France.
It consists of a carriage, containing several cyl
inders or enormous bobbins, around which a
great length of iron wire, of the thickness of a
strong cord, is wound. This wire is passed me
chanically into a box of one of the wheels of the
wagon, and is unwound as the wheels revolve
with the progress of the carriage.
The whole is followed by a platoon of cav
alry. Two men dismount at every fifty paces
to raise the wire on a slight stick. Four others
follow while the first are moving forward, the
latter raising the wire on a forked stick, which
they fix in' the grount and fasten with cords
strengthened with iron plates. That being
done, the men relieve the other workmen who
repeat the same operation. The hors e s i n th e
carriage proceed in a gallop, and the telegraph
is laid with extraordinary rapidity. The ap
paratus is worked in the carriage, which serves
as an office. When it is intended to return,
the action or the cylinders is reversed, and the
carriage is turned round, preceded by the men,
who take down the poles, replace them in a
light wagon, and wind up the bobbins.

Tus BILITISH CrOPRIMMT refuse to grant
clearances to vessels having on board arms for
the United States. This is one of the dodges
to which John Bull will resort to assist the
rebels, but as there are more ports in Europe
than those of England, our vessels will have no
trouble in procuring clearances for home, large
supplies of arms are now being purchased in
Europe, and these are bound to find their way
into the hands of oar troops despite the efforts
of the English aristocracy to prevent the vessels
carrying such cargoes from sailing from their
ports.
TI diver for pearls in the Indian Sea may
not return pearl-laden, but at least he will
come up purified. So in the study of the natu
ral sciences, though the student may not bring
to the light some new truth, some crown Jewel,
he will at least return untainted by passion,
made purer and happier by his contact with the
elements of sinless nature.
