The~sunny hues of hope are smiling fair;
In the sweet vision sorrow has no part,
No thought of gloom is there.

And night--upon the waters cold and gray

Soon will the fairy dream

And darken into truth.

The Death fe Mr. Pool.
Now, that the HE-President has been
called to hisgeat account and kieps in
the silent temhis enemAiesare wiljing to
do justice to his worth, his public and pri.
vate reputation. He who while inpower
was assalled in a most wanio manner in
Congress and out of Congress, he who
was abused and traduced, reviled ad un.
derrated, is now declared to have been
upright and honorable, just and hiexible,
pious, conscientiotiv, sincere, capae and
industrious. What is public fam6, what
is the value of public honor? W6o has
justice done to his worth and merits? We
answer, he who is in lais grave.
The administration of Mr. Ponm was
not without its faults and its erroi, but,
in its results, it has been the most bril.
iant known in the history of this country;
the acquisition of California and New
Mexico alone will secure to the country
one stream of wealth, commerce, power,
and position prudently managed which
will make the republic of the United
States greater than ever were Greece
and Rome in their most palmy days. In
his time the arms of our Country have
been most triumphant in every engage.
ment, our coffbe have overflowed with
revenue, our boundaries extended, -our
rights respected, and peace with the' world
and respect of all nations were ours at
the period of his death. History hereaf.
ter will do him justice, the present gener.
ation will remember him with respect as
a good and upright ruler and a just man.

WVe leken that Dr. Jamies Davis took
with him to Constantinople, from thisocity,
four slvsand one fgee colored man.
Two of the slaves and the free colored
man have voluntarily returned here inathe
brig John Hunter. arrived on Tuesday
from Liverpool. These slaves have visi
ted various places in Europe under temp.
tations to leave the service of their owner,
if they had chosen, but whatever induoe
meats were held out by *bolitIonists. they
preferred servitude in the United &taies
to treedom in Eu rp.
We unders.and that one accident -e
curred of.a remarkable character In this
connqetion.-.-.Dr. Davis, on leaving Malt.
ta for Marseilles, acoidentally left one or
the male servants, wih his wife, at the
former place, but transmitted a message
to a friend to have them conveyed as earlIy
as possible to Marseilles. D)uring the
passage, Dr. Davis expressed some con.
cern at the circumstance, of having left
the slaves behind. Some of the passen
gers sneered at the anxiety he manifested,
observing that hIs slaves would naturally
prefer freedom to bondage, but the aston
:shiment of these parties was great, on
nearing Marseilles, to find the two slaves
on shore, waiting the arrival of their mas-.
ter, and waiving their handkerchiefiu, do.
lighted at the fact of again meeting him.
One of the passengers, an Englishman,
expressing astonishment to Dr. Davis, at
his two servants voluntarily returning to
slavery, he was referred to them for an~ex.
planatle. The male slave being. ques
tioned on the subject, replied, in substance
that he could not live in England or any
other European country.
These slaves remained some time in
Liverpool, where no doubt they were bait
ed by every possible bribe to desert the
service of their master, but, as we have'
seen, without success.-The other two
slaves remain with Dr. Davis inu Paris.
