ARDENT MEN.
BY MISS sEpsEwIcK.

Like many other men of an ardent tenn
permanent disinterested lover Of his species,
Mr.. Fletcher was disappointed at the slow
operation Of principles, which, however ef-
fcent and excellent in the abstract, were to
be applied to various and discordant subjects.
Such men inexperienced in the business
ollie, are like children, who setting out on
q journey, arc impatient after the few first
PAGES to be at the end Of it. They cannot
endure the rebuffs and delays that retard
them in their course. These are the men
of genius-the men Of feeling men that
the world calls vlsionaries and it is because
they are visionaries-because they have a
beau ideal in their own minds to which they
can see but faint resemblance in the actual
state Of things, that they become impatient
of detail, and cannot brook the slow pro-
gress 20 perfection, They are too rapid in
their anti :ipations.

substantially az follows. About three
yenrs ago. a Mr.. Carrico, living in Gal-
latin county, Kentucky, planted some of
the common Indian corn in the neigh
borhood of a swampy piece of land,
which was grown over with n thick
strong grass, resembling sedgc grass. In
the fall of the year. when he WAS gath
ering his corn, he ives surprised to find
tina, ears of corn were growing and ripe
ming upon the grass, and that on the
blades of the grass seperate grains were
growing. Struck by the singulari,y Of
this circumstance, he carefully preserved
the grains aud planted them in the next
spring. The result was extraordinary,
producing growth partaking Of the
qualities both Of the grass and the corn,
and superior to both as forming third
article very advantageous to stock far
mers. The stalks in our Office present
most remarkable appearances. The fas-
sci does not bear any resemblance to the
corn tassel, but is more like the heads of
coarse grass--the blades are long and
very slender. resembling more the blades
Of oats than of corn. Upon the extrem.
tiles of these blades separate grains Of
corn enclosed in husk presenting the
appearance Of hazel nuts burs, are found,
and to ,he bodies Of the stocks more per-
feet ears of corn are attached. The
stalks themselves are long and slender,
and not unlike tho wild rye Of the coun-
Try, only stronger and more substantial.
We believe that this grain is at least
one thing new under the sum- ,sand unlike
most novelties it promises to be useful.

II was no part Of my intention, when
] resolved to pny visit TO the United
States, to whit upon the President. I
had imbibed unfriendly opinions concer-
ming him from the newspapers and ro-
views and pariisans Of the day, and con-
sequenily declined letters Of introduce
ton wh'ch were rendered me by my
friends, both in New York and Philadei-
phia. The more inquired into Gem
crnl Jackson's character, however, tho
more examined into facts, and, Judging
Il by these facts, the more reason had /
to dislrust my previous Judgment, and
therefore, whensl was advised by the
Secretary Of State not to quit Washing
ton on my return from the south without
wSi'Iog upon the President, ] assented,

And gladly hie me to the guardian cover
Which the grave offers for the troubled clay.

Forego the hsp!ess heart whore now il gnaws.

Nohopcless quest, in reasons calm despite;
Into thine air, dissolving, flies each bubble,
And oil is solid darkness on tho sight.
And shall sleep at last, nor start In terror,
Reused by sad dreams, wild pulse and aching

BARBARous OUrRAGE.-About six
years ago, poor man by the name Of
Little, becoming indepted to his Land
lord in the sum often or tive i've dollars
for rent, was unable to pay, and the land
lord consented to wait, provided his
daughter, who was then just over twen-
ty one, would become Jointly responsible
She therefore signed an obligation with
her father, and has since been getting a
decent living, aud aiding in supporting
her infirm parents and blind sister by
folding sheets for book binders. The
landlord, short time since, put the ac-
count into the hands Of n hanger.on in
the purIleus Of our courts for collection.
He dunned in form, and was told that
poverty had laid a heavy hand on the
family, and time must be granted. The
account was in consequence left with a
lawyer, and sued, judgment obtained
and execution issued. The father was
first arrested, and imprisoned, but find
ing that he was unable to pay a farthing
he was released, and the daughter drag
ged from her family and friends, and
locked up on Monday last, under the
same roof with felons and vagabonds.
So barbarous an outrage could not be
kept long concealed-even the officer
whose duty in became to execute the
process upon, the helpless girl, was SO
moved by her situation, that lie offered
to pay one half Of the amount, pr ,vided
she could pay the remainder. But she
bad il not in her power, and there was
no alternative but to be incarcerated.
She remained in Jail two days. and yes
ierday, owing TO the humane inter-
position of some book-binders in her
behalf, she obtained her liberty on pay
ment of the costs and lawyers fees.
We have hardly told half the STORY.
Tie officer who carried her to Jail
assures us his hcart has not been so
touched by any circumstance which has
come within his observation or knowledge
for IN any years. 1t is due TO the keeper
Of the Jail to state that he rendered every
facility within his means to make the
situation Of the distressed girl comfor-
table. Her character Is believed to be
without a stain and beyond reproacb,
save tba, of.povery. The law of July,
1881 exempting females from incarcera-
sion, does not apply to her case, as the
debt was of previous obligation.
IL is only necessary 10 add, that this
nagront and inhuman outrage was COM
mitted in the enlis h,ened and benevolent
city Of Boston. Shame ! Shame -

But would thy life might ever run

For smiles so of Withdrawn
That trusting love received too slowly
The lesson Of Thy scorn.-
That thou hast had thy triumph hour,
Unquesiioned and complete,
When prompted by spell Of power,

'Tis over now tho spell is broken
The lingering charm hath fled,
And pass away like thoughts unspoken,
Tho vows which thou hast said:
| give thee back thy plighted word
Its tones Of love shall DO
Like music by the slumbercr heard
a dreamofs melody.
Go now the light of Hope is on thee,

a thousand smiles thy charms hath won iheo
They'll win thousand more;
For beauty hath charming spell,
Upon the human will,
Though false the heart it wells so well,
II hath its homage still.
Go bluo'eysd girl! proud shall meet thee
And gladden. in thy smile,
And hatterys pleasant lip shall greet thee,
With the bland words Of gulo.
Go try the recklessncss Of earth,
With that young heart ofthine,
And lavish it's unpractised mirth
On pleasures every shrine.
Thy pleasant path may yet be shaded
A shadow cross thy sun
Tho rosy wreaths that Love has braided
Fall from thee one by one.
And yet thou hast my earnest prayer
For blessings on thy way,
That flowers may spring and blossom .hcIo
Which know not Of decay.
The oak wbcreon the falling thunder
Hath passed, may yet remain,
The cliff by lightning torn asundcr,
May dare the storm again;-
And can bear myself so well,

That neither brow nor lip shall tell

M.--Instances o insanity, and
even of death, from over wrought religious
excitement are becoming daily more fre.
quent. This is to be regretted. Religion
should bring to the mind tranquility, peace.
and happiness, not excitement and madness.
Tempcrsments too susceptible ofexciiemen nj
should not be so tampered with as to unsettlc
the reason, or sap the springs of existence.
The Union County (Ia.) Star. gives an &C
count Of gentleman in Connelsvlle, in that
state, who was wrought upon by some
friends to such degree than he went raving
mad. Physicians were sent for, and every
means used but in vain, for his recovery.
The gentleman is spoken Of in high terms
ofpraiee, and the loss to society, and to his
fan,l feelingiy lamented."
