For the Not-walk Gazette.
ODE TO NATURE.

 

Grand source of all the tumbling tide,
‘ Which flows tumultons through my heart,
0h! bid me wander at thy side!

Inspire the heart whichthou hast blest—
Teach me thy beauty and thy power,

Thou holy visitant to earth,
To read, in every leaf and flower,

The glorious history of thy birth.

"I'is written on the forest oak,

Whose waving branches pierce the air,
Thy majesty its might awoke,

And left a fadcless impress there. -
’Tis written on the modesfflower

Which blooms, unseen, in yonder dell,
Gazing content from hour to hour,

Up to the realm where angels dwell.
"I'is written in the sunset sky,

When light and shadow, varied blend,
And though the colors fade and die,

They still a. radiant echo lend.

’Tis written in the gurgling stream,
Which bounds and ripples through the wood,-
’Tis written in the silvery gleam
0f white robed spirits of the cloud;
From every simple blade and flower——
From every note the wild bird sings
From every ofi‘spring of the hour,
Thy history-loved nature rings.

Then teach me, 0 ye gifted powers,
To trace Creation’s glories o’er—-
Still guide me to the storied bowers,
Where genius hides her fairy lore ;
Tell me, ye messengers of light,
Where first ye caught your beauteous hue——
Whence came the sprinkled robe of night,
The freshness of the morning dew—
This emerald carpet, rich and soft,
This smiling other, pure and fair,
These meek-eyed children, who aloft,
Sweet odors to the senses bear;
The pictures in the fading sky—
Who painted first their brilliant hued
thnce came the deep imprinted dye,
So lovely to the mortal view—
The angel-guardians of the night,
Why glisten in their vault of blue—-
Why bathe in floods of holy light
The dark browcd beauty which they view.

0, Nature’s children! glorious thou,
Peopling the forest and the vale,

Bright joyous clvcsl all creatures how,
To listen to thy winsome tale,

How sweet the lay! how fair the scene
We view on Nature‘s holiday,

When o’er the smooth and mossy green,
The spirits of the wild wood play,

They chat and skip from every bough,
They laugh, and dance in every stream;

They fill the air, with voices low,
And gentle as the twilight beam.

Spirit of beauty, tell me where
This mystic. magic minstrelsy
Breathcd its first rapturous note, and bear
The sacred tribute back to me;
Guide me to that fair, purling stream,
Where Heaven first dipped its arching bow,
And forth produced a broken beam,
Which smothered chaos in its glow.

Ere Eden stretched her sunny wing
In new born innocence and grace,
Discordant Earth, no buds could bring
To bloom, upon its sterile base;
The darkened, gloomy, shapeless void,
In deepened waters prostrate lay,
Stern elements, by passion buoyed—-
Their warfare raged from day to day.

Yet even here, amidst the din,
The primal seeds of grandeur bloomed,
GlOry and darkness reigned akin,
Gladncss and sorrow lie cntombed;
Beauties from homely dwellings rise
From the dead branch the cucxoo sings.
Each radiant spark ofjoy that dies
Bears gusts of sorrow on its wings.

0h glowing nature, bright and fair—-
These beauteous children of thy love

Shine forth, the emblems of thy care,
The symbols of the rest above.

Fair goddess, the sweet sylvan scene
Which is presented to our eyes——

The humblest valley dressed in green,
Bid our emotions upward rise.

Lavish and ever freely given—
Thy gifts to man are ever dear,

They bloom to turn our eyes toward Heaven—
They fade—no resting place is here.

The fragments of Earth’s paradise
Greet us from every hill and vale,
And sweetest of the fairy guise,
The blossoms of the hill and dale,
Why call them flowers though sweet the name?
They are the brightest gems of earth--
Wcll worthy of the honored fame
Which hovers o’er them from their birth.

In that fair bower where Beauty dwelt——
Where Earth beheld its first light beam,
First, these fair children gladly felt
The glory of the morning gleam—
And sprang from every grassy mound
Which joy-crowned Eden could contain—-
And gazing timidly around,
Behold Earth’s glory, not its pain;
Then spread their perfumed sunny wings
And sped their way to greet the hours
They sought, the life which nature brings,
And burst their gaol as lovely flowers:
Why is it that we love thee so,—«

Thou blooming children of the wild 1—
Why do our hearts in knowledge grow,

While listening to thy teachings mild!
O, ’tis a gentle mission thine,

To glad and soothe the weary heart ;
So lay thy offering at its shrine

And bid the fancied grief depart.
Ye darlings of the lovely vale——

Ye proud ones of the grander wood—
IThy simple lessons never fall;

They work together but for good.
How sweet to catch thy earliest bloom

And lift thee from thy lowly bed-
How sad to see thee seek the tomb

Ere thy sweet history half is read;
There is no place where thou art not,

’Mid all the glories of the Earth.

There is no dull and barren spot
That has not seen a flowor’s birth—
0 soul of nature, glorious flowers,
Exponent of her generous fame;
Beauty, profound, must be that power,
From whence thy blushing graces came,
Ye emblems of the happy sphere,
Where man unmingled joy was given,
Ye symbols of the spirit here—-
Which bids us look in hope to Heaven.
0 \vrcathe thy gentle, kindly love
In golden links around each heart,
Till guided to the rest above,
We live and reap the better part.

The broad expanse of nature’s realm,
No brighter, clearer gems contain—
None that can check the surging whelm

Of human pride and earthly gain;
And bid a purer light arise

Than wordly hope has ever given,
Save music murmured from the skies,

Borrowed from the strains of Heaven.

Oh what a Witching fairy tune
lie-echoes from the mountain stream,
As its fresh waters grateful run
To count the smile of man’s first beam,
Who has not listened to the song
It warbles all the summer day,
And peering the bright waves among,
Sought inspiration in its lay.
How glad it wooes, the blossom bright,
Which smiles enchanted at the strain.
0r bubbles to the starry night
Its winsomc tale of love again.
’Tis the spirit of the woodland dell
Which moves and breathes in every flower,
And the fancied realm where fairies dwell,
Could yield no fairer, sweeter dower
Than this light elflsh minstrclsy,
Whieh echoes forth from every glade—
Claiming-a home in every tree—
A murmur from the woodland shade,
0 voice of beauty 1 voice of power!
How rich and. great a gift is thine.
This forms the golden precious dower
To seek the hidden gifted mine
Which lendeth to the inner seal:
Of the frail temple of the heart.
What gladdened forms thy presence greet ?
What hosts of sad-eyed griefs depart-—
And yet thy voice is ever near

and Winter

Wimp llglltplng funds the snmmhp sky—
thn nature wI-cps upon the bicr,

To see her children dump and dip,
There’s music in the thunder gloom

To the poetic, kindred mind,

Who feels in every pealing boom

The spirits greater than mankind.

There’s beauty in the woodland shade,

As. the fair blossoms sink to rest.

When from tbs sleeping, silenced gludc,
The dying beams fade in the nest,
There’s beauty on the mountain brow,
When darkened breezes in triumph rcigm,
At the sweet hour when mortals bow,

To \vakcn golden dreams again,

Yes, it is lovely, but what shade

Can c’er rival beauty bright,

When steal o’er solemn hill and gladc,
The silent beauties of the night;
Impatient buds and flowers await

The approach of evening’s gentle quccn‘,
And show the hope of their debate

By noddings o’er the mossy green;

Joyl joy! 3. flickering light appears,

And fast the heavens in glories light,

As Luna pale, half smiles, half tears,
Steps on the threshold of the night.

As in its course the glowing sun
Darts its bright rays o’er woodland shade,

And gladdcns each and drooping one

Which socks for shelter in the gladc;

As tender moonlight’s saddened beams,

In timid, yet majestic grace,

And in its beauty, ever seems

A foothpath to the heavenly place,

As beautcous flowers from hill and dcll,

Turn their meek tender eyes to Heaven,

And view the home where angels dwell,

The joys that are the angels given;

As silver strains of melody,

Demo on the murmur-lug summer air,

Burst forth from every bush and tree, ,
An echo of the music there,

As all the beauties bright and free,
Which congregate in Nature’s realm,
And shedding sweets o’er wood and lea,
The Nature loving heart o’er-whelm,
Fast flows the faltering ebbing tide

0f mingled feelings, grasping still
The vast domain extending wide,

And far beyond the creatures will ;
How throngs the blood in every heart,
Tossing and trembling at the sound
0f wild approach, and sad depart

Of Nature’s beauties scattered round.
Loved Nature, now we see the power,
The wisdom of thy Maker still,

Who doth reveal through every hour,
Some mystery of His mighty will;

0 blcst the heart which now can wcnd
Its thoughts to the divine abode,
And bid its wishes upward tend,

From Nature up to Nature’s God,
New York, October, 1861.

A Comedy of Errors.

An amusing Comedy of errors was enacted
yesterday in the reception of the Eighth Con-
necticut regiment. Error number one is the
general report in the newspapers that a pre-
sentation of a stand of colors to the regiment
was made at Staten Island, Programmes are
so generally performed, that the reporters
thought it was safe to say that the presenta-
tion took place as announced; but it did not.
On the arrival of the regiment an excellent
breakfast was in readiness, and at eight
o‘clock the committee of the Sons of Connec-
ticut went down to Staten Island. The reg-
iment had not left the boats, and it was dis
covered that the want of water would be a
serious objection to encamping on the ground
proposed.
A consultation between Colonel Harland
and General Burnside‘s Adjutant-General
resulted in an order to return to Hunter’s
Point, L. I., where the boats arrived at noon.
Here the Committee met General Burnside
and the regiment was drawn up in line on
the railroad platform to receive the colors.—
But the station-master said that there must
be no dclay,as the train Would soon be along.
The soldiers, therefore, must not stand upon
the order of their going, but go at once.
Upon this hint seven companies went in-
to the fourteen cars and started for Hemp-
stead, leaving three companies at the Point.
After the train had arrived within a mile of
J maiaca the locomotivc,as one of the Connec-
ticut men expresses it, “kinder gin aout.” The
seven companies left the train, and two mem-
bers of the committee went on in the train
to Jamaica for permission to encamp the reg-
iment over night at that place.
The permission was accorded, and the com-
mittee men prepared to return with the ti~
dings. But the engine-driver, anxious, prob-
ably, to show that his locomotive had by no
means “gin aout," carried the committccmen
by the regiment at full speed, and landed
them at Hunter’s Point.
Towards six o'clock in the evening ar-
rangements were made by which the remain-
ing three companies, with all the baggage,
tents and camp cquipage, were able to rejoin
the regiment at Jamaica; and by seven o’clock
the Colonel of the regiment was able to say
with Richard,

“Up with my tent; here will I lie to-night;

But where tomorrow 1”
The latter question had not been decided
definitely at noon to-day.
Not the least amusing circumstance of the
affair is the following instance of a good sol-
dier, t. 0. one who knows how to obey orders:
When the regiment first arrived at Hun-
ter’s Point, the colors which were to be pre-
sented were put in charge of an orderly who
was told to stand in a certain spot till he was
ordered to move. There was an opportuni-
ty to present the colors at Jamaica, but the
colors were not there, the orderly having been
forgotten. When the committee returned to
the Point, last evening, the orderly was at his
post—he had not moved.

It is due to the railroad company to state
that the arrival of the regiment was unex-
pected, and no arrangements had been made
beforehand for the transfer of one thousand
men with the tents and baggage.

The promised presentation of colors will
undoubtedly take place as soon as the regi-
ment is located either at Hempstead or Staten
Island.——-N. Y. Eco. Post.

The Late Colonel Baker.

Hon. E. D. Baker, Senator from Oregon,
and, Colonel of the California Regiment, who
was killed in the unfortunate skirmish near
Lccsburgh, on Monday,was born in England.
His ancestors were English Friends, and his
parents emigrated to Philadelphia while he
was quite young. Shortly after their settle-
ment in that city they died, and Baker was
left with a younger brother to support. For
a. time he worked as a hand-loom weaver in a
small establishment near the corner of Thir-
teenth and South streets, pursuing the study
of law at irregular intervals.

Finally, spirit of adventure, be determined
to try his fortunes in theWcst and in company
with his brother, crossed the Allegbanies on
foot, traveling through Ohio and Indiana,
until he reached the Wabash River, which he
descended in a canoe. Settling in Illinois,hc
took up the study of the law more systemat-
ically. A Whig in his political sympathies,
he secured no position until 1745, when he
was elected to Congress. About this time
the Mexican war broke out, and Mr. Baker
recruited a regiment in Illinois which was
sent, with other re-enfmccmcnts, to Gen.
Taylor. After several months’ service on the
Rio Grandc, he was sent home as the bearer
ofdispatchcs, and as Comrcss was in session
he resumed his seat. I' e soon resigned,
however, and rejoined his regiment, partici-
pating in the siege of Vera Cruz and in the
conflict at Ccrro Gordo. After Gen. Shields
received the wound,wl1icli came so near pro-
ving fatal, 001. Baker assumed command of
the brigade.

At the conclusion of the war he was re-
elcctcd to Congress. After having served
through 1849 and 1850 he made a contract
with the Panama Railroad to raise a com-
pany of four hundred men, with whom he
performed very important and arduous labors
on the Isthmus, nearly forfeiting his own life
which was endangered by a serious attack of
Panama fever. Subsequently he returned to
Illinois, and very soon removed with his
family to California where he gained great
distinction as an orator. The admission of
Oregon as a State gave Mr. Barker hopes of
still further political advancement, and trans-
ferring his residence thither, he was at once
elected United States Senator. For his elo-
quent efforts in arousing the people to a sense
of their responsibilities in this great rebellion
he will be long remembered.Not content with
words, be early proéccdcd to deeds, and
months ago organized a regiment, which rap-
idly grew into a brigade. Although in real-
ity commanding this body of men, he held
the rank of Colonel, preferring to accept no
position which should oblige him to resign
his seat as Senator.

 

 

 

——The town of Soutbington has suffered
quite severely for months past from incendi-
ar fires. A public meeting was held on

edncsday evening, to take action in the
matter. During the night. a barn belonging
to a. German named Sleigher was set on fire
and destroyed with all its contents. The
barn was a large one and filled with the sea-

 

 

son’s crops.

The NEW YORK TRIBUNE.

NEW VOLUBI *‘.

u It

New Canaan, “
6 t | b

 

 

N the seventh of September, 1861, THE
NEW YORK WEEKLY TRIBUNE com—
menced the twenty-first year of its existence;
THE DAILY TRIBUNE being some months
older and the Tim SEMI-WEEKLY TRIBUNE
somewhat younger. For more than twenty
years, this journal has labored in what its
conductors have felt to be the cause of Hu-
manity, Justice and Freedom, cudcavoring
to mclioratc the condition of the oppressed
and unfortunate, to honor and encourage use—
ful exertion in whatever sphere, and, to pro-
mote by all means the moral, intellectual and
material advancement of our country. It
has aimed to be right rather than popular,
and to espouse and commend to-day the
truth that others may not be willing to ac-
Ccpt till to-morrow. In pursuing the course,
mistakes have been made and faults commit-
ted; but, having in all things incited our
readers to think and judge for themselves
rather than adopt blindly our own or others’
conclusions, we believe we may fairly claim
for this journal the credit of having qualified
its readers to detect and expose even its own
errors. To develop the minds of the young
by the most general, thorough and practical.
Education, and to encourage and stimulate
Productive Industry, throu 11 free grants of
Public Lands to actual sett era and cultiva-
tors, as also through the protection of imma-
ture or peculiarly exposed branches from
too powerful foreign competition, are among
the aims to which this journal has adhered
through good and evil report, and which it
steadfastly commends to American patriot-
ism and philanthropy.

As to the Civil War now devastating our
country, we hold it to have originated in a.
Rebellion more wanton, wicked, inexcusable,
than was ever before known—a Rebellion in
the interest of the few against the many—a
Rebellion designed to raise higher the walls
of caste and tighten the chains of oppression.
Having done all we could without a surrender
of vital principle to avoid this War, and wit-
nessed the forbearance, mcckncss, and long-
suflering with which the Federal Govern-
ment sought to avert its horrors, we hold it
our clear duty, with that of every other citi-
zen, to stand by the nation and its fairly cho-
sen rulers, and to second with all our ener-
gies their efforts to uphold the Union, the
Constitution, and the supremacy of the Laws.
And, though the Rebellion has become,
usurpation deception, terrorism,
and 'spoilation, fearfully strong, we
believe the American Republic for stronger,
and that the unanimous,earncst efforts of loy-
al hearts and bands will insure its overthrow.
But on all questions affecting the objects, the
scope, and duration of this most extraordi-
nary contest, we defer to those whom the
American People have clothed with authori-
ty, holding unity of purpose and of action
indispensable in so grave an emergency.

In a crises like the present, our columns
must be large] engrossed with the current
history of the War for the Union, and with
clucidations of its more striking incidents.—
Wc shall not, however, remit that attention
to Literature, to Foreign Affairs, to Agricul-
tural Progress, to Crops, Markets, &c., &c.,
which has already, we trust, won for THE
TRIBUNE an honorable position among its
cotcmporarics. Our main object is and shall
be to produce a comprehensive newspaper,
from which a careful reader may glean a vivid
and faithful history of the times, not merely
in the domain of Action but that in Opinion
also. As our facilities for acquiring informa-
tion increase with years, we trust that an im-
provement in the contents of our journal is
perce .tiblc, and that, in the variety and full-
,ucss of intelligence afl'orded, we may still
hope to “make each day a critic on the last.”
In this hope, we solicit a continuance of the
generous measure of patronage hitherto ac-
corded to our journal.

also fonnidablo and dangerous diseases that have Mod
the best of human skill. While they produce poms-nil
offset-”they are at the same time, in diminhheddmtlo
safest and best physio that can be employed for children.
Being sugar-coated, they are pleasant to take; and bin.
purely, vegetable, are free from any risk of harm. Car-
hsve been made which surpass belief were they not lub-
shunted by men of such exalted position and dim
as to _ rbld the hspicion of untruth. Many eminent
clergyman and physicians have lent their names to certify
to the lpublic the reliability of' my remedies, while otlurl
have sent me the assurance of their conviction that my
Prepaiations contribute immensely to the relief of my
afflicted, suffering follow-men.
The'Agent below named is pleased to furnish gratis my
American Almanac, containing directions for their use and
certificates of their cures, of the following complaints:—

Cosfiveness, Bilions Complaints, Rheumatism, Dr?”
Heartburn, Headache arising from a foul stomach, on-
sea, Indigestion, Morbid Inaction of the Bowols and Pain
arising therefrom, Flatulency, Loss of Appetite, all Ulcer-
ous and Cutaneous Diseases which require an ovum:
medicine, Scrofula or King’s Evil. They also, by purify-
iug the blood and stimulating the system, cure my
' complaints which it would not be supposed they could
reuch,.such as Deafness, Partial Blindness, Neuralgfa and
Nervous Irritabilify, Derangements of the Liver and Kid-
neys, Bent, and other kindred complaints arising from a
low suite of the body or obstruction of its functions.

Do not be put off by unprineipled dealers with solo
otlier’pill they make more profit on. Ask for Am’l
Plus; and take nothing else. No other they can give
you clmpares with this in its intrinsic value or curative
powe . The sick want the best aid there is Dubai,
and t ey should have it.
