THE MUSIC OF NATURE.
In all of Nature's works there's music sweet,
% , 1
Well, varied tones, and richest melody.
There's music in the heavenly calm of twilight
Hour?in voices of the balmy breeze as
Soft and pwc$t it sighs amid the stirring ?
Leaven of star-lit gfbve, or languid sleeps
Upon the bosom calm of dark reposing
Waters. 'There's music in the babbling stream,
And in the cataract's foaming thunders;
Io merry rippling of tho mountain brook, |
And voice majestic of the storm-stirred eca.
There's music in the song of joyful birds
Iteneith, and is the muttcrings of heaven's
I/)ud thunder in the deep blue sky above;
In heaven, on earth, in out-spread skies, and air
Invisible; in solitary dell,
And onlhe mountain tops with rugged cliffs,
Where human footsteps ne'er have left ah echo,
There's music wild and grand and beautiful.
Within tbo deepest cells of human heart,
And in tho depths inanimate of our
Material world, in earth's dim rays, and beams
* hif ??I ? I IimUIa mKiaIi kmrvUfltr rrom

Tho highest firmament, and light the angels
To their evening orisons?is melody.
In tones of woman's sweetest voice on earth,
And in the aonge of spirits pure, who dwell
Within the better land, in all above,
In all below, we hear the music rich
Of universal harmony divine,
And deepest tones of all endearing melody.
Ten thousand harps invisible do pour
Their melody united well through all
The depths of sin, and regions of the oarth,
While millions of archangels touch their heavenStrung
lyres, and send celestial harmony
Through all the mighty halls of God's extended j
temple
Up to his everlasting throne above.

OUR NEW WORLD KUIxiT~
Two works arc about to. be issued in NewYork
which cannot but excite much attention.
Wc pliude to the books of travels by Stephens and
Norman. The grace of stile for which the former
is celebrated will render his volumes readable, even
aside from the interesting facts which they will con
tain. The publication by Mr. Norman occupies
new ground in a great measure, embraces sketches
of rambles in Yucatan, also notices of a visit to
the ruins of Chi-chcn, Kabah, Zayi, and Uxmal.
Jt seems that Mr. Norman sailed from New Or.
leans in November, in 1841, with the object of
passing the winter in some of the Central American
islands. While at Sisal, he heard marvellous
stories of the wonders of the interior, and passed
rapidly on to Mcrida, the capital of Yucatan, which |
was founded in 1542, and now contains a population j
of 20,000, the majority being Indians and half. ;
breeds. After remaining a month in Mcrida, Mr. :
Norman started directly for the ruins, and was the 1
first visitor to Chi-chcn who has given a detailed
account of the place. lie says:
" It was on the morning of the 10th of Februa- !
tj that I directed my steps, for the first time, to- j
wards the ruins of the ancient city of Chi-Chen.
?
On arriving in the immediate neighborhood, I was
compelled to cut my way through an' almost im- >
permeable thicket of under-bush, interlaced and I
hound together with strong tendrils and vines, in
which labor I was assisted by my diligent aid and
companion, Jose. I was finally enabled to effect j
a passage, and in the course of a few hours found 1
myself in the presence of the ruins which I sought. I
For five days- did I wander up and down theso J
crumbling monuments of a city which, I hazard ;
little in saying, must have been one of the largest 1
the world has ever seen. I beheld before me, for
a circuit of many miles in diameter, the walls of
palaces, and temples, and pyramids, more or less
' dilapidated. The earth was strewed, as far as the
eye could distinguish, with columns, some broken,
and some nearly perfect,which seemed to lave been
plartcd there byxlic Genius of Desolation which
presided over this awful solitude. Amid these solema
memorials of departed generations, who have i
died an 1 left no marks but these, there were no in- j
dications of animated existence save from the
bats, the lizards, and the reptiles which now and
then emerged from the crevices of the tottering
walls and crumbling stones that were strewed up.;
ort the ground at their base. No marks of human
footsteps, no signs of previous visitors, were dis- j
cerniblc; nor is there any good rcaron to believe j
that any person, whose testimony of the fact has
been given to the world, had ever before broken f
the silence which reigns over these sacred tombs j
... *
of a departed civilization. As I looked about me
and indulged in thes.-; reflections, I felt awed into j
perfect silence. To speak then had been profane.
A revelation from heaven couiJ not have impressed
me more profoundly with the solemnity of its
communication, than I was now impressed on finding
myself the first, probably, of the present gene- j
ration of civilized men walking the streets of this !
oneC mighty city, and amid
* Those temples, palaces, and piles stupendous,
Of which the very ruins are tremendous.'
For a long time I was so distracted with the mul. j
titude ot objects which crowded upon my mind,
that I could take no note of thcin in detail."
Tl;c Indians for many leagues round visited /
Mm daily, and appeared surprised at his move. \
nwnts. He could discover no tradition, no 1c. |
gends of any kind. All communication with the
part seems to have been cut off. The Temple, ho 1
says, must have been originally about -150 feet
long, and built cart-fully of hewn s'onc. Only \
broken walls and pillars are now standing. It contains
a rooro 14 feet long and 6 wide. The parts
of it yet remaining, " are finished with sculpture
blocks of stone of about one foot souare, representiag
Indian figures, with feather head dresses, arm. j
c?l with bows and arrows, their noses ornamented !
with rings; carrying in one hand bows and arrows, ,
and in the other a musical instrument similar to '
those that arc now used by the Indians of the conn- !
try. These figures arc interspersed with animals j
resembling the crocodile."
u Near this room," he says, " I found a square i
pillar, only five feet of which remained a'_o\c the
nuns. It was carved on all sides with Indian
figures, as large as life, and apparently jn warlike
attitudes. Fragments of a similar kind were scat,
tertd about in the vicinity." A few rods to the
south stands a pyramid, measuting five hundred
and fifty feet at its bcse, gradually drawing in tr.
trards the summit, which presents a large pla f jrm,
upon which is erected a square building, about 23
feet in height, making the whole of the structure
one hundred and twenty feet high. This pyramid
' cojituir.cd room? curiously constructed, and orna.
merited wilii rare carvings and architectural devic?
s, which arc detailed by our author with great
minuteness.
But, says the Democratic Review, whence wt
condense this account from a longer article, by fai
! the most extraordinary ruin in Central America, it
j the House of the Caciques. After felling som<
i trees in fiont, i\Lr. Norman says that the whoh
1 opened to his view, presenting the most strange anc
| incomprehensible style of architecture that hit
I eyes ever beheld. Elaborate, stupendous, and ele
| gant.
4' The front of this wonderful edifice measurci
thirty-two feet, and its height twenty, extending tr
the main building fifty-feet. Over the door-way
which favors the Egyptian style of architecture
is a heavy lintal of stone, containing two doublt
rows of hieroglyphics, with a sculptured ornamcn!
in ctnniv with mised lines of dra"&erv runninr
through them, which apparently have been bro,
ken off by the falling of the heavy finishing froir
the top of the building over which, surrounded b)
a variety of chaste and beautifully executed borders,
encircled within a wreath, in a female figuri
in a sitting posture, in basso relievo, having a heat
dress of feathers, cords, and tassels, and the
| neck ornamented. The angels of this building
urc tastefully carved. The ornaments continiu
around the sides, which are divided into two com
, partments, different in their arrangement thougl
not in style. Attached to the angels are large
! projecting hooks, skilfully worked, and perfect roscttcs
and stars, with spears reversed, are put to.
gcther with the utmost precision."
Hut we have littlr. room to follow the subject
further. While at Yucatan, Mr. Norman 6tat?*
that he found a collection of twelve or fourteen
idols, which he supposes to have been worshipped
by the original inhabitants of this country. They
were found among the ruins which he visited.?
They arc composed of clay, apparently hardened
by fire, and resemble the pottery of the present
day. They are hollow, and contain little balls
about the size of a pea, which are suppesed to
have been formed of the ashes of victims sacrificed
to the god they inhabit. Careful copies of these
idols have been made, and will be found among
the other engravings with which this work is il.
lustraled.?Phil. Er,q.
