So that presume it may be cal. caiated upon that Mr. Rowan win be reelected to the U. s. Senate. This result, however unwished for unexpected, we must nevertheless put up with until the people Of that state become enlightened and a,rio,c and better appreciate the character of their public men. That Mr. Clay's own state should be found in opposition to him, is indeed passing strange to US. We may perhnps accoun. for it in this way that the old Relief New Court party has again after
 struggle of several years obtained the ascendnncy in iha, state, and that in maintaining and supporting this pary, they have been obliged npparentiy to support Jacksonisn,.
 GT Since the above in type, we have received she Lexington Reporter Of the 1l,h inst, by which it appears ha, the friends of Mr. Clay in Kentucky are not in SO desperate a condition were inclined to believe.

Other accounts seem to corroboraie this and express the decided opinion that Ahcre will be majority in each branch of the legsa- lure friendly to Mfr. Clay.
 The latest advices state that the majority in favor o Mir. Clay on joint ballot will be sscenty:foHr.

TO THE IVY.

Lone tenant Of the wasted spot
Where softened Desola,ion smiles,
And weeds are spread DER graves forgot,
And Ruin sighs from grass grown sisles;
Still present round each withered truck,
Like youth which cheers the path of age;
Or where the river wall has sunk
Beneath Distinctions leaguering rage.
Child Of decay. No blushing flower
Or cup of treasured sweets, is thine,
To breathe in Besuty's frsgrsn, bower,
Or charm where s,ateiier rivals shine.
The column OF the desert place,
The warriors cross, the nsmeiess siene,
Receive thy clasping boughs' embrace,
And show thy clustering ~reaihs alone.
Yet, type Of Truth whea Fortune wanes;
And Grrf. that hsun,s the mould'ring tomb
And Love, that "strong ss Death" sustsins
The vhirlwind's shock and iempest's gloom,
To mo thy mournfui leaf excels
The fsirest bud, whose petals Hing
Their odours where the summer dweIla
Or gem the verdan, robe Of spring
The violet and the queen-like rose,
Frail mioions Of passing DAY.
Brief as the faith which Falsehood shews,
Dut bloom while lasts their worshipped raw
Yet thou-benesth the howiing blast,
When all is drear. art smiling on,
Unchanged. unshrinking TO the last,
And green when sven Hope is gone.

method Of feeding mules, but we have
TO mention in addition, q mode Of pre-
pairing corn for this purpose. by which,
when IL becomes hard and indigestible.
he has found that two thirds OF the
quantity required in the common way.
will be sufficient to keep working ami
mails IN good order. About Christmas,
when corn begins TO be hard to grind,
he has been accustomed 60 soak il in
weak ley, made by putting 4 peck Of
hickory ashes into barrel. then filling
1t with corn. and then pouring on wa
ter as much as The barrel will hold
Care should be taken that the corn be
not soaked too long. otherwise the ami
mails will refuse To eat il; during warm
weather, IL should be permitted to re.
main in the ley twelve hours-in cold
weather, twenty four hours. BY this
mode OF preparing the grain, there is
another advantage gained; il would
seem that the alkali which is thus CON
veyed into the stomachs of the animals,
Is very conducive TO their health, main
tanning a good appetite, aud exciting
the intestines into a continued good
condition. These considerations, to.
sether with the saving Of one third Of
the grain. will remunerate the pains
thus taken. Nothing more will be adj.
ded at present, except that the writer
en'ertsins hope, that many Of his fel-
low citizens will prove all these inte.
rests, by their own experience.

mlttee who reported this bill, to the 18th section,
which he read as follows:

mittee who reported this bill, to the 18th section,
which he read as follows:
''That every other felony, misdemeanor, or
offence, not provided for by this act, may and
shall be punished as heretofore, except that in all
cases where whipping Is part or the whole of the
punishment, the court shall substitute therefor
imprisonment in the county Jail, for period not
exceeding six months"
He would offer no amendments; but would in
qure Of the committee if, by this section, it was
intended to conine in the county jail for six
months, the slaves in this District, for any trivial
misdemeanor, which the policy of the avs of eve
~ slave holding state or community had hereto
fore punished summarily with stripes, which he
understood to be the laws of this District now in
force. Suppose Mr.. Speaker (said Mr.. wy the
slave of the planter of Prince Georges County
shall be sent, by his master to market within the
District, and he shall commit riot or some mis-
demeanor, which by the existing law, is punished
with stripes, is it right that the slave should be
taken from the master. and confined six months
in the county Jail at the expense of the owner or
the public Treasury?
Mr.. Barringer's amendment was afterwards
proposed and disposed Of, as stated in our paper
of Yesterday.
