POETRY.

Thoe aong of the Wintera WaId.

UT 0.. SAIWU5.

My volce Is bold and strong and brat!My song l the soat of the aiens sad fuel

And the strings I sweep with my rugged breathAre the rose limbs f the forest tree.

I roll my thunderlag bs al deThe naked rocke and dark ravines;

And mes for the sdiling maden, fpring,nla the bearded teps of the everpmea

I proe my glitterlag fager downOn the laughing tongues ef the mouatain rlls,

And check their mi•h n amy chlllIng dsp,And llence the low of their merriest true.

I dame In the scboolboy's curly hair,As he lses saor on his painted sled,

Lad I sandi nip his sister's lip,And touch her cheek with a roale red.

I whistle my jolliet teane n timeWith the ringing tones of the skaters sle;•d

And I heat, in a race, the etadleet paoOf the atrengest limb ad the swiftet he,

I waft the wdding bell's joyos pealIn arias sweet to the waiting ride;

0, many a ballad of pleasre and lovele borne ea the swell of my bresay tie.

Whenthe he e of the sllvery moon Is bid,And the angry sky is filed with dleet,

I lash, with a whip of a thousand thoeag,My yings steeds of the onew-hed fsat;

For I love to harns th the tempest clouds,And sweep the stare rom my stormy path,

Till the heavens ar elad in the cuaralning gleemThat fellows the track of my Serleas wathl

A eog for the rich, a dirge for the poe-For Plenty and Povty both I salng

'm driven away from the Prin'es deer,la the wretched hbut o the beggar Fim IagI

Ny voice is lere and bold and heaveAnd strong s the play of my plse teoday;

3ut I long for the balmy breath of Spring,And the joyous laugh of the maiden, Ma.

"Life on the Ocean Wae."The story of the once popular sad not

yet forgotten song, "Life on the OceanWave," is thus narrated by the author, spesBargent, Esq., of Boston, in a letter ad-dressed to Barry Gray, in 1858, in reply toa request that he would favor him with thestory:

"I will cheerfully answer your inquiry inregard to the song, though fearful that thefacts may be of slender Interest. Some six-teen years ago (1842), Mr. Henry Rumel,the musical composer, asked me to write asong for him, leaving the subject to my ownselection.

In a walk on the Battery, t~rew York,the sightof the yeselb In the hktor dashingthrough the waters, in the morning sunlight,suggested the "Life on the Ocean Wave."

At th e ies she became anxiousabout the welfare of her husband, aend bu-sled herself in selecting her seaaoesor,who was to share with Warren thejoys of matrimonial buls. This diflcaltyshe at last overcame by selecting a wo-man she thoughbt worthy to follow n herfootsteps.

Once settled in her mind, she desired thetwain to be made ems flesh, eve bedlreherdeath, that she mlght be made happy in herlast moments. They weresooallgly mar-ried by her bedside, and the sick womea,having her heart's wish gratfled, taredover to die, but it was notto be, for •e,much to the astonishment of all the parties,rapidly grew better, sad sosn after recov-eed her health, only to find her usbandgives sway to another.

For several yar there has been a prevail-ing idea foed on pretty good authority,that ther is an extensive sad rich undevel-oped gold field on the Big Horn aend tstributarIes. This river beads in the BigHorn mountains, in Wyoming Territory,and flows north-east through eastern Yoe-tans till It forms a emdauena with the Mis-souri. For the last three years various par-ties have made ansueaeseful attemps topenetrate and fully explore thieaountry forpredous minerals, but have beesn preventedfrom carrying out their plans by the per-sistent hostility of the Indins inhabitergthe country. For the past few monthsthere has been considerable stir ma deCheyenne, Omabha and other western asles,with a view to equip party o•f su entnumerical strength to fully arry out thethe project. Col. Murrin writes from Chi-cago to the leaders of the expedition that hewill guarantee that not les tha ten thou-sand me will fit out there in the spring fortheig Hrn. These, a addition to thosealready enrolled at Omaha and Cheyenne,were but third of them to go, would besumdent to themselve•a anlstthem. one t •g, however, is "k toplace an unsurmountable obstacle toigrse, and that is that the Goveret

-s given the district they popoe to pses-pect to the Indians as a reservation, adnow the cation is, will the red men allowtheir lads to be lanvaded? If no, wll the

overamnt protet the ns tives or the whitemen? This matter settled In favor of theInvasion, we have bat little doubt tbhat anew country would be soon opned t•stwould urpas not oa in mireal wealth,bt• aleo in arcl lreoeres, any of thepresent territories.

A letter fom Salt Lake City mays BrighamYoung es sent a party to select a loca-tion in Arizona, where those Mormons whofavor polygamy can retire; and that thereisa probability that the Polygamy doe-trine will be abandoned soon in Utah.Since the railroad opened many womenhave left Utah, and the troubles betweenthe Mormons and seceders have increased.The peraenals of the leaders of a revolu-tionary movement always adds an interestto It. The men who are heading the Mor-mon repudiation of Brigham Young, Meosrs.Godbe and Harrison, are publishers of theUtah lWbie.. They are facile writers andpleasant speakers; possess energy whichleads them to use ther talents in the mostactive ways. They write, travel, preachand organise branch churches Godbe hasfour wives, and is the father of seventeenchildren, of whom only twelve are living.His fourth wife is Charlotte Cobb, long re-garded as the belle of Utah, whose motherwas seduced and inveigled into the Mormonchurch and the Prophet's harem from thebest of Boston society. When Godbe warexcommunicated, he told his plural wivesthey eobid have divorces if they wished,and be would divide his property equallybetween them. They chose to remain withhim. Harrison has been twce married'but is now a widower. He never wa spractical polygamist, loving his first wifetoo intensely to become one Kelsy, whois the business manager of the TWIrsu,was an eastern man, and has been a Mor-moan more than twenty-five years He hasthree wives and by them fourteen children.When hecast his lot with Godbe and Har-rison, he offered a divorce to his wives butthey refused. He says if three or four wo-men cling to him as wives from the force oftheir affections, they have as much right to,in a religious, moral, political or economi-cal point of view as one would. He writesand speaks well, and is a power in the move-ment. These are the intellectual and politi-cal leaders of the new movement. They,are evidently steadily gaining ground, andproducing results which will soon be tangi-ble. The tyranny of Brigham Young iscompact and shrewd, but It cannot deadenor stifle the natural interests of all the.peo-pie. As there appears opportunity, one af-ter another will come from under It andadd to the force, of the revolution.-8-& JleHerald.

Au OLD STOUT sI A Nnw S•Ls.-Dr.Grusselbuch, Profesor at the SweedishUniversity at Upsala, is reported to be ableto benumb a snake by artiflcial means so asto render it as hard as marble, and, afterthe expiration of some time, to reqtore it tolife by sprinkling It witha stimulatmg fluid,of which he alone knows the composition.He is said to have repeated these experi-ments, on an unhappy reptile for the lastffteen years.
