"Truth should not resemble a bitter almond, Which - is gooil foi• the health, but from which our lips draw contemptuously) it should rather resemble a sweet - almond, which is equally sa lutary, and which pleases kings, fair women, andwise men:"—Sam, Persian Poet. • In a country, fur removedfrom that which we inhabit, lived a Prime Minister, the declared enemy of oll.untruth. lle teisetted that if ev ery body told the truth there Would no longer be vice, fur no one would dare to confees.'it , and so the shame .9f confessing 'faults would prevent. men from committing tham. ° . fle said that the thoughts of a worthy man- ought to op pear in his acts, like the stars which sparkle 11o:brilliantly in the rrtkre blue sky, and he corn pars& the heart of a wicked than to a stonily cloud which hides the planets from our eight. • We May See, by 'this comparison, that this Prime Minister- inhabited the East.

But they acted wisely also, hick is a .rarer merit than talking wiSely--r Thus their conversations were of profit to their people, who therefore prayed in all the mosques that the Prince and his Minister might be gar rulous, for it certain they would hold themselves bound to put in practice whatever they projected and they never con%rsed gathcr without m eking the happiness of their people the theme But the Prince was also" anxious to .secure his own happiness, which was but natural.— There was in a neighboring kingdom a young Princess, with black hair and arched' eyebrows short ehattning• The prince was of opin inn that such a consort would embellish his" 'court, t.e the charm of his life, and rejoice by her ps4oence tho'hearts of his subjects.

"If the Prince be . comes a poet ; and .If c , the Pt incese has a taste for poetry, adieu' to Truth. ;We - Anil have nothing. tiut 'minds, lays, and 14 lads, drama composed and plays acted." "It revery well f^ - Mod ho, to himself, "hut it is ,kes people poets, and gives Now it DilinintOr I Id that this - wise I, beautiful, as / the morning, and that the name of this cliild Zoreb; which word in the language of That country' , eignifies Truth.

This was the Orel attcmpl. ever made by wagons on this trail. The difficulties we had to encounter were apparent from the guide's rceresentation. There would be probe:. bly 1,000 miles More travel than on the north route. [At most, there is but but 500 miles more travel.—Ed. Trib.]—long and tedious sorts to Pass, which ox teams had never before encountered. Everything went on pleasantly as far as Little Salt Lake when a hearsay delu sion. seized the camp. Mr: A. heard Mr. B. say that he had heaid frord'ti' ruountaintler by the name of Hard, who ' diitinctlf told ..him .of a pass that tookinto the mountains near the great Basin ; Unit by taking this course a safe and ex peditious route could be had to Gallium i a and the mines, and water every 15 miles, and there by avoid the dreadful deserts of the Spanipli trail.

Passing up the fine karigone, here • we Mond good grass, plenty of water, and prospects brightened as we procee ded-. - - At length -the this -of-the Great-Basin was reached ; and we came to an awful chasm several hundred feet in length.. Things Were now brought to a ciisis, for_ we could go no fur; [her in that direction. Here we lay over a week trying to find a pass, 'bid to no purpose; Rioneers we're sent to Observe, and exphirers ascended every snowy ,peak, but all returned unsuccessful. ' Such Was the nature of ti le ma nia, they would not give op. Some th ught they had 'struck into the mountains too 4 5 tw others not soon enough. A large nutnbe•of wagons started north -of the Sawn rim, w itch is the last We have heard . of theta. A heavy snow fell souhnfter,_which would prevent their retracing, should iheY so desire. They had provisions fur - 80 days only. ___ Captain Smith passed ti; and strtiei south of he rim with pack animals. A party of 13 packed [ruin the wagons, some days in the tear of Captain Singh, while the remaining - wagons went back to the Spanish tn . .

We penetrated about 200 mils into this v t region, I , and traveled five days Without Ay water for ourselves or 'animals, except witSl we could get from the rains, and suck up through crevt ces of the rocks. . 'l.-I‘,. The sufferings of some were intense, a water fuser seized the senses, they. could not eat for e whit of water ; every rustling of the wind was brook to the imagination; and all the delicions drinks that the subjoot had taken for years, arose before him .tu torture. Sleep was out of the question, at ,such times. Some Were nearly crazy. At the end of the 4tli ; day we catnped, havtug found a puddle of tired and water, which enabled as to repose. The next morning a bold push was made for water, as .in a very few hours our filitiiful animals Would all be dead: A blue smoke arose among the hills to our, right. Here we expected to find Indians, and if Indians, water. "Two out of the dumber being- several miles ahead, Made desperate 'by hardships, rifShed fur the spot. Instead of Indians appeared Capt.„ Sni . tilt's men, who had been - in the mountwia 11 days.
