CUMMING, President, Elegant Ext From Dr Morr’s Travers. (Just Published by the Messrs. Harpers.) Dr. Mort's Wareacoo, Orenations. When about to leave Meckel’s Museum, I was offered to select a souvenir, and contented myself with a single Clavicle, which | prize highly, as hav- ing belonged tosuch distinguished anatomists as those who founded this museum. Perhaps my affection for so small a part of the human fabric, might have made my friends at Hallé consider me particularly moderate ; but T had a reason which my American countrymen will pardon me for having wished to gratfy. It was that 1 might have in this memerial of the labor of the il- Iusizious Meckels that bone, so small, yet so impor- tant in the human body, and frightful in some of its diseases, which I conceived to have myself given— I hope I may say without vanity—still more con- sideration to, by ersecting it through its entire extent fora tremendous Osteo-sarcoma. 1 attached more valtte to this operation from its novelty and origirali ty, and from iis never having been pei formed before 5 and, let me add, from my deeming it, from the cha-, ragter of the vessels and parts involved in its steps, the most important, difficult, and dangerous opera tion that can be performed on the human body. The patient whe was the subject of it still lives, as a monument of the benefit of modernsurgery. It nas only been performed successfully on One occasion since. Ihave ventured tocallit my Waterloo ope- ration, ag it was performed on the seventeenth day of, June, [1827-} Viexya. _ I weuld name this fascinating capital as one pecu- liarly calculated for the residence of invalids during: the milder months of the year. The hours glide peacefully and agreeably along in the midst of its literary and scientific treasures, in its polished society and refiaed amusements. There is no metropolis, containing so large a pulation, where the invalid may lead a life of so much tranquillity and repose, and have at his com- mand so wide a range of rational gratifications. For it is here that the ameliorating influence of the imperial protection, conceded to the cultivation of all the elegant arts of life, has exerted a happy and most benign moral power over the relations of so- ciety and the domestic charities of the heart, and been, no doubt, a principal and controlling cause of the practical results of that influence which we be- hold in the foundation of such noble and ample in- stitutions for the relief of suffering humanity. Mas. Mort's Discretion or Swiss Scenery. We ayail ourselves of the following graphic ta- bleau of our journey through a most interesing pon ept, tion of Switzerland, copied from a MS. journal by Mrs Mott, who accompanied me ia this part of my tour: 2 * One of the most memorable spots we visited in Switzerland was Goldau, which, thirty years ago, was overwhelmed by he fall of a mountain, and which buried no less than five villages, including old Goldau, and 467 persons. ‘This awful catastrophe is still remembered by some who were eyewitnesses tothe heart-rending scene. As we, wandered over this mountain-tumulus of the dead, imagination pic- tured the spet, which now spoke only of blasted hopes and desolation, wild as even it was on the very eve of that fatal day ; a rich valley, inhabited oy. youth and age, each indulging in the hopes and pleasures peculiar to their years; locking forward to the morrow with anxious care or joy, little ek aad that an awful fate was hanging over their devoted heads, or that the mountain, which had so long yielded to their comfort and support, would in a few short hours spread death and de- struction over all who dwelt beneath its shadow. The infant slept in its mother’s arms as sweetly that night asit had ever done before; the jocund laugh went round; the merry song of the shepherd rang through the parting mountain, with the same joyous sound; sorrow—for there is sorrow every where—hung with the same deadly weigtt upon the mourner’s heart, asthough it were to feed thro” asadand protracted life upon ite prey, while the afflicted, to. whom the grim Fuemenget. alone could have spoken words of comfort, still bent the head in pious resignation, wailing theirrelease, but not daring even to hope for it. e weary traveller, too, slept as peacefully through thatnight, as ifthe morniog sun would only rise to show forth to him Nature's beauties with etill greater lustre, when he would wandepas fearless o’er the mountain's side and through the pleasant valley, as we who now stood gazing on the fearful wreck, little dreaming that i hescene was awful.— immense size—huge hillocks or mounds beneath our feet, wrapped in one com- mon winding-sheet; the mountain earth their sepul- night would be their last. TI Rocks ot of earth— of this awful event, we commenced to ol sea, agit e away and valley below. t ken and precipitous route, made of large logs and stones, laid so as to form stairs. Up these stairs, on the. very brink of yawning obliged to ride, holding firmly to the mane. While the guide led our horses in this manner, we were enabled slowly and with difficulty to ascend. We passed many crosses, which mark the different sta- tions, and serve as resting-places for the weary pil- rim or the adventurous traveller, each little ehrine fing provided with benchesfor the purpose Ar- riving at the Hospice de Notre Dame de gine youreelf standing on a precipice of many thou- sand tvet, the clouds pats of heaven above. beauty at the foot of the mouatain, lay the Lak: had ab courze.

The nuns were exceedingly delicate in appearance, and one in particular very beautifel, moving with an air of dignity and elegance which excited our admi ration and astonishment, and gave to imagination- a bold licence to conjure up some tale of deep ro mance, where, as is usual, early, Mac pe ma blighted hopes—a lover dead or false—had driven from the world of {astiion and elegance the lovely, the enchanting form before us. it there were no marks of melancholy in her fice, expressive face; no pallid cheek or sunken to uphold us in our fantasies All was the brightness youth untouch- ed by the mildew of sorrow. A radient emile jit up her intelligent countenance, and with sweet mo- desty and she answered the few questions po- litenese permitted us to addrees to her. dress she wore, theugh coarse, was particularly becom- ing. It consisted of a hood made up of black cloth, bound with white; a coarse wrapper of brown cloth tied round the waist with a hempen rope,from which hunga rosary and crucifix; her neck was co- vered with a plaited kerchief, which also went round the head underneath the heod. She looked like an offering meet for heaven. | ‘ “The dress of the friars was similar in appear- ance and texture, except that their heads were bare, and on their feet they wore They were Spey bee's men, with ream long and » fine, nai indeome features, an ing omnacrs o courtiers rather than monks.

The effect was beautiful, truly enchanting, atan elevation of many thousand feet above the level ot the sea, perched, as it were, in mid air. Lneanetaly the mind became withdrawn from the contemplation of all earthly things, and absorbed in thoughts and feelings exalted and sublime as the lofty,dome_of heaven itself, which at that moment seemed eniirely illumined with the last crimson rays of the setting sun, whose golden disc slowly deperted to bless with his ardent beams another portion at our wondrous glube. Long b: fure he disappearedthe lakes at foot of this precipitous mountain,and all the villages on their borders, with the peaceful hills and forests which surrounded them, lay buried in the silence and loomof night. Ewraptured, we watched the gza- dual decline of day’s holy light; beheld it tage with golden red the lofty peak of snow-capped Grin- denwald, rest a moment on the cold, pure, snowy bosom of the Jong Frou, then lighting the tearful mist of Pilate, something.Jike an angel's pitying glance wheu it lighta on scenes of human wo itcan- not relieve—trembling and cheerless—fading in sor- row asitlingers yet more pare. The mantle of night, with allher bright and studded gems of spark- ling lustre, covered A broad expanse of heaven, aflording but a famtand dubious light.. To remain any longer near the. brink of a precipice co awful, would have trieda heart mote brave and. fearless than our own. Cawiiously we retired, and felt mueh pleasure to find ourselves surrounded by beings like ourselves, dependant on the power and greatness of Him who shall but touch te mountains and they shall smoke, and say, be thou removed into the sea, and lo! it is done. After an anxious look at the fleecy clouds which began to flit across the summit of the surrounding mountain, and a fervent hope expressed that the merning would be alike _propi- tious, the party dispersed, and sought repose in the frailand tottering tenement which crowned the summit of this lofty, eminence. t “We slept, but not soundly; for, in truth, we had become nervously sensitive, und felt as it we were on the branch of some high tree, or onthe brink of a roaring torrent; and weil might we imagiae our- selves strangely and manekally placed; fora thick white fq be covered all of earth, and nothing but the sky was visible, save the moving sea of mist. “Towards morning the wind rose and whis- tled roundthe eolitary house in most melancholy mognings. We watched the movements of the flecting clouds. Finally the bugle sounded, and in an instant the housebold were in motion. Tae clerk of the mountain hed arrived at the just. conclusion thatthe wind, which now blew with considerable violence, would before suonise disperse the clouds, and thereby afford the lovera of nature an opportu- nity of witnessing trom thia elevated spot, the re- turn of that beautiful and joy-inspiring orb they had seen depart but the evening before 1n suchunrivalled splendour. “ A’ hasty toilet prepared us for a sortie into an at- mosphere bleak and chilly as November. We as- cended the tottering steps of the observatory, there patienjly to await the day god’s coming. At one minute before six the the first glimpse of the Fle: rious orb of day was caught above the mighty Alps. Two minutes that hour his whole disc was en- tirely visible, like a globe: of fire in the midst of eparkling crystals of calcareousspar; some grayish, some capped with sow, others shining and trans- parent glucierg, thrown together in tumultuous con- ‘usion. The scene was worthy ofa painter’s pen- cil anda poet’s Bears a. Morr sx Love. We cannot say much for the personal beauty of these young daughters of Greeee. In truth, were it not for the exceedingly picturesque and clastical costume of both sexes, their large dark eyes, and long braided hair of black, and, above all, their win- ning and courteous manner, full of graceful ges- tures and expressions of warm heartedness, to us 1n a strange land most gratifying, though to a dispas- sionate eye it might seem theatrical, we should call the Greek women generally a homely race, But there was one exception among these interesting scholars, aluvely Hydriote girl of about filteen,whom we took’ a great fancy to, a8 she alse, as it seemed, did to vs. In one ot our visits she presented to one of our party some pretty beadwork; and the man- ner in whichshe ran across the room to deliver her cadeau, with her hand on her heart and her voice trembling and diffident, while the long gold tassel hung down tastily from her red cap, and her rich, full Albanian costume ghone more charming than ever, has left an impression upon our memory that never willbe effaced. - £ ‘This recalls a dehghtful ride we took one beauti- ful afternoon to Plato's Grove and around Mars Hill, with Mrs, and Mr. Perdicaris, Mr. Hill, and a sister of Mrs. Hill, and two of the scholars of Mr. Hill, one cf which latter was the favorite Hydriote. We were all mounted on horseback. Mrs. Perdicaris, our lovely countrywoman, was most beautifully at- tired in Greek costume, and was taken for the queen, and we of the royal. party who were escort- ing her. Under this delusion, which we did not dispel, we were received everywhere with the greatest distinction asour horses paced along amid the ancient ruing. Every one stopped and uncov- ered as.we passed, apd even the old archbishop raived his cap, which he does to no one but the king and queen. ‘The little girle,too, on the roadside, presented us with numberless rich bouquets of roses, pinks, and magnolias, till we were nearly confused with their courtesies. The Greek dress of the la- dies of our party never looked to more advantage than it did a cheval, and [ must make an attempt to describe it. Ared cloth cap, embroidered in gold, with a long tassel ; a light Turkish veil, not tied, but thrown overthe head ; large, loose_pantaloons, part- ly covered bya very short, embroidered petticoat; a jacket fitting closely to the bust, with open sleeves, showing lacework beneath, over which was a sort of coat without eleeves, fitting prettily to the shoul- ders. To these add the red sash, the Turkish slip- r, and the long braided hair, and the tout ensem- le ‘completed one of the pretticst figures I ever saw. Such was our Hydriote girl, to whom might be transferred all the panegyric stanzas of Lord Byron's charming verses to the Maidof Athens. Superior Court, Before Judge Oakley.

About the 2ith of December, Sig. D. Quintana Roo, Commissioner from Mexico, with suite, ar- rived in Merida Congress then being in session, arranging matters to act with Texas, and Commo- dore Moore being expected daily. They were on the point, in fuet, of declaring their independ- ence as a free nation. Matters, however, took another turn. The Mexican gold did the work quickly, and they forfeited their honor with ‘Tex- as,and formed a treaty with Mexico, Scarcely had the Commissioners turned their backs on Me- rida, when Commodore Moore and squadron bolted into the scene ofaction. He arrives in’ M lay hasan interview with the Governor and Cabinet, and propounds to them the following questions :— “Gentlemen, I’m here, are fyou ready to'€o-oper- rate?” “No!” “ Will youfassist mein taking certain Mexican towns ?” ov Will you take possession of three Mexican towns, if I will capture them within ten days?” ‘ No!” andthe interview ended by his asking for proofs te show his government.
