” OVER THE MOUNTAINS.
BY MISS PROCTOR.
Like dreary prison walls
The pve grey mountains rise,
Until their topmost crags
Touch the far gloomy skies;
One-steep and narrow path
Winds up the mountain crest,
And from our valley leads
Out to the golden West.
1 dwell here in content,
Thankful for tranquil days;
And yet my eyes grow dim,
As still I gaze and gaze
Upon that mountain yn
That leads—or so it seems—
To some far happy iand
Known in the worki of dreams.
And as I watch that i
Over the distant bill,
A foolish longing comes
My heart and soul to fill,—
A painful, strange desire
to break some weary bond;
A vague, unuttered wish
For what might lie beyond!
In that far world unknown,
Over that distant hill,
May dwell the loved and lost—
Lost, yet beloved still,
I bave a yearning hope,
Half-longing and half pain,
That by the mountain pass
They may return again,
Space may keep friends apart,
Death has a mighty thrall;
There is another gul
Harder to cross than all,*
Yet, watching that far road,
My heart beats full and fast— *
If they should come once more—
If they shonld come at last!
See down the mountain side
The silver vapors creep,
They hide the rocky clifls,
They hide the craggy steep;
Ti? hide the narrow path
sat comes across the hill—
Oh, foolish longing, cease!
Oh, beating heart, be stilil
* Mrs. Bennutt pown on Forrest.—Ching
Foo writes to the Union, from New York:—
“There isa fact connected with Forrest
which shows how the Herald is moved and
inspired. Ten days sioce, Mrs, James Gordon Bennett visited the theater, She was
in the stage box with three or four of the
young fellows who are the regular fringe
to her garments, and the party laughed and
jabbered so loudly and with such ill-breeding that it annoyed the house, and of course
Mr. Forrest alse. Prior to this, let me explain, the Herald had been singularly favorable to the great American tragedian.
Well, on that night, having borne it as lon
as he could, Forrest lost his patience, anc
sent a stage messenger around “in front’
to give Mr. Forrest’s compliments to Mrs,
Bennett, and request her and her party to
behave themselves whilst the curtain was
up. Mrs. Bennett immediately got up in
a rage, flounced out of the house, and sent
orders down to the newspaper office to
“slash’’ Forrest, aod everything else belonging to Niblo’s Theater for the future.
It has been done !’’
Lire on THE Ocean Wave.—A jolly good
fellow was Dr. Sargeant of Boston, I was
introduced to him just as the steamer Star
was leaving ber dock at New York for Europe. For the first twenty-four hours,
“Richard whs himself agaio,’’ but that fell
destroyer, who neither spares age, sex nor
condition, sea sickness, seized him and
nothing more was seen of the jolly old doctor for several days. We bad left the banks
and were steaming along beautifully, when
one morning I saw the doctor’s head emerging from the lower regions. But whata
face . long, lugubrious, distreesed ;_ bis bair
uncared for, dress untidy, eyes bloodshot.
I could scarcely believe this apparition was
the jolly old déctor who had kept us all in
a roar the firet day out, “Well, my dear
doctor, how do you feel by this time?’
Mh 1” said he, and there was an unmistakable earnestness in his eye ; ‘feel! why
I feel as though I had but two objects in
life now. One is to put foot on terra firma
and the other, to find out and whip thod:
low who wrote “Life on the Ocean Wave!’’
A Srrone Kiss.—Tennyson, in his poem
of “Fatima,’’ relates the strongest case of
suction within our knowledge at present.
Speaking of a lover’s kiss, he says, or rather she says:
Last night when some one spoke his name,
From my sweet blood that went and came,
A thousand little shafts of flame
Were shivered in my narrow frame,
© love O fire! Once he drew,
With one long kiss my whole soul through
My lips, as sunlight drinketh dew.
That’s the strongest kiss we ever read
about and throws the “poor man’s plaster’
completely in the shade, Phcebus! whata
suction that fellow had.
LIgvuTENANT SLEMMER, says the Columbus
Times, in command at Fort Pickens, dined wit
Colonel Tennent Lomax and officers of the Alabama volunteers, a few days since, and in the
course of a friendly conversation said: “Colonel
Lomax, I expegted a visit from you at the fort
before this time.” Tothis kind rebuke of the
chivalry and courage of the State troops, the
wer Colonel promptly replied: ‘My dear sir,
ad I been in command you would not have . Nos. 10 and 12, Broad Street, Nevada, . ‘ty.

says:

assay office there are $6,000,000 of uncoined

PPLICATION FOR PARDON.--To
the Hon. David Belden, County Judge of Nevada County, and K. W. Maslin, District Attorney. Al80, to the Hon. Thos. H. Caswell, late County Judge
and 4. A. Sargent, late District Attorney :
Take Notice, that Lintend making application to
His Excellency, J. G. Downey, for the pardon of
tioned diseases, had been given up to die by their . Torn GARDINER, who was convicted at the Februphysicians, which warrants me in promising to the
afflicted, who may place themselves under my care, a
perfect and speedy cure. Private diseases are the
greatest enemies to health, as they are the first cause
of Consumption, Serofula, and many other diseases,
and should be a terror to the human family. A permanent cure is scereny ever effected, a majority of
the cases falling into the hands of incompetent persons, who not only fail to cure the disease, bat ruin
the constitution, filling the system with mercury,
which, with the disease, hastens the sufferer into a
rapid consumption.
But should the disease and the treatment not cause
death speedily, and the victim marries, the disease is
entailed upon the children, who are born with feeble
constitutions, and the current of life corrupted by a
virus, which betrays itself in serofula, tetter, ulcers,
eruptions, and other affections of the skin, eyes,
throat and lungs, entailing upon them a brief exisj
tance of suffering, and consigning them to an early
grave.
Se.r-Anvse is another formidable enemy to health,
for nothing else in the dread catalogue of human diseases causes 80 destructive a drain upon the system,
drawing its thousands of victims, througha few years
of suffering, down to an untimely grave. It destroys
the nervous system, rapidly wastes away the energies of life, causes mental derangement, prevents the
proper developement of the system, disqualifies for
marriage, society, business, and all earthly happiness, and leaves the sufferer wrecked in body and
mind, predisposed to consumption, and a train of
evils more to be dreaded than death itself, With the
fullest confidence I assure the unfortunate victims
of Self-abuse, that a permanent and speedy cure can
be effected, and with the abandonment of ruinous
practices my patients can be restored to robust, vigorous health.
Irregelarities, and all diseases of males and females,
treated.on principles established by fifteen years of
practice, and sanctioned by thousands of the most
remarkable cures. Medicines, with full directions,
