CadenRbbia< v v j,onn ri'.m.oWi No BoundB of wheols or hoof-befct breaks Tbc Bilehce of tbo summer day, As by thelovelieBt of all lakes I while the idle hours away. I pnco the leafy colonade, Wherj level brauchen of tho plane Ab >vc mo weave a roof of shade Impervious to tho sun and rain. At times a sudden rush of ?tr jj Flutters the lazy leaves o'crhead, And glenms.of sunshine toss nnd flaro Like torches down the path I tread, By Somariva's garden goto I make the marble stairs my Beat, And hear the water, as I wait, Lapping the steps beneath my feet. The undulation sinks and swells, Along the stony parapets, * And far away tho floating bells Tirklc upen the fishers' nets. Silent and slow, by tower and town, The freighted barges come nnd go, Their pendent shadows gliding down Ey town nnd tewcr submerged below. The bills sweep upward from the shore, AVith villas scattered ono by ?no Upon their woedod spurs, and lower Ilcllaggio blazing in the sun. And dimly seen, a tangled mass Of walls and woods, of light and shade, Stanc's backoniug up the Stolvio Pass Vnrcr.na with its white cascade. I aek myself, Is this a dream ? Will it all vanish into air ? Is there a land of such supremo And perfect beauty anywhere t Sweet vision ! Do not fade awny; Linger until my heart shall take Info itself the Summer day, And all tbo beauty of tho lake. Linger until upon my brain In stamped an image of the Bccne; Then fade into the air again, And be as if thou hadBt not boon. -????.???'? ? ? We find tho following going the rounds of thcprcS8: Quaint Lcrrtn. Fnou Mb. Likcoln.?The r.inghcmton Times prints a copy or an ori ginal letter of President Lincoln, now in the poBsossion of Hon. Henry R. Mygalt, of Oxford, to whom it was given by the confi dential clerk of the secretary of war, soon after it was written. It road as follows : Executive Mansion,, "t Washington, Nov. 11. 1861. / Hon. Seeetaryof War: MY Dr.mi Sir?I personally wish Jacob R. Freer, of New Jersey, to be appointed a co'onel for a col ored regiment, and this regardless of wheth er be can tell tho exact shade of Julius Ctcaar'a hair. A. Lincoln. Like a good many other things attributed to Mr. Lineoln, this is a fair subject of doubt, since there was no talk of employing colored troops till tho latter part of 1802. Mr. Lincoln could not havo made such a recommendation in 1801. A A Marshficld, a short time before bis death Mr Webster gave utterance to'this sentiment. 'The man who has not abandoned himself to senuality feels, as years a d vonce Mid old ago comes on, a greater Jove for mother eartb, a greater willing i-csu and even desire to return to bei bo som, and mingle with this universal lrame of things from which be sprang.' 'As he spoko these words;' says Mr, Felton, 'with Blow and solemn tone, he seemed to look upon tho face of naturo as upon the face of a living being, to , whom he was bound by the ties of a -conscious friendship aud immortal love; nnd the soft wind breathing with a warmth like summer, through the un changed leaves of the neighboring treos whispered an audible answer to the voice and look of lovo of the dying states man.' In the Stokes oase tho board of phy sicians to whom was roferred tbo ques tion of his sanity, made tho following reply. 'That we find Edward F Stokes labor ing under an abnormal condition of mind, amounting to 'partial idciuional insanity' on two subjects, religion and politics; and that this abnormal oo )di tion of mind will only be increased by longor confinement, either in jail or an asylum; further, that in tho opinion of this board, Edward F Stokes is not in capacitated for the management of his pecuniary affairs.' Judgo Cooke has reserved his opinion as to tho liberation of Stokes Tho following wo can recommend as n certain remedy for that painful ail ment, a felon, Tako a pint of common soft soap, and stir it in air slacked limo till it is of tho consistency of glazier's putty. Make a leather thimble, fill it with this composition, and insert tho finger therein, and change tho composi tion onco in twonty minutes, and a cure is certain. Pay your Subscription, Reader now. DB.
