ced with eighteen holes about half an inch in
diameter, arranged in concentric circles.
There are Twelve holes in tie outer circle,
five I'M fhe second and one in the centre,
These holes contain the fruit, whiSn when
taken out, would readily be mistaken for
small acorns.-rhis plant has Il broad oval
glossy leaf, through which the stem pene-
trates in the centre. 1t is said that tbs
hogs where this plant ab6und3, eat its fruit
with great voracity, even prefeTing it to
corn, and during the season that the fruit
is abundant, the swine fattenI in u few weeks.
A friend who is a skiif,I botanlst has in.
formed us, that naturalists style this plant
Nelumbium Ltfeum, and it is commonly
termed Sacred Bean. 1t is found in the
United States as far north rs Oswego in
New York: but is quite rare. Some plants
of this species have been found ia the lakes,
on the Upper Mississippi, and were consid-
cred a great curiosity by the first settlers
of that section. This plant may be easily
~propagated by planting the seed in the mud
or shallow ponds, aid as it affords al Album
dance of excellent food. for swine, and,
would doubtless be yaluable for other stock,
we hope some Of dhr enterprising agricul-
~turlis;s will try some experiments in its eu'-
ture.- Should they do this, We shall be.
happy if they will furnish Us the result Of
their labors, in order that they may be
published for the benefit of the community
at a largc.-Ieras Telegraph.

THE DIsENTHRALLED.
BY i. q, WHITTIER.

1Ass
He had bowed down to drunkenness,
An abject worshipper;
The pride of manhod's pulse had grown
Too faint and cold to stir:
And he had given his spirit up
To the unblessed thraIl,
And bowinb to the poison cup,
Had gIoried in his fall!
There came a change, the cloud rolled off,
S-And light fell en- his BRAIN
And like the passing of a dream
That cometh not again,
The shadow of the spirit fled,
He saw the gulf before,
lie shuddered at the waste behind
And was a man once more.
He shook the serpent folds away
That gathered round his heart,
AS shakes the swaying forest oak,
Its poison vine apart;
He stood erect-returning pride
Grew terrible within,
And conscience sat in judgement on
His most familiar sin.
The light Of intellect again
Along his pathway shone,
And Reason like a. monarch sat
Upon his golden throne.
The honored and the wise once more
Within his presence came
And fingered oft on lovely lips
Hhis once forbidden name.
There may be glory in the might
That treadeth nations down:
Wreaths for the crimson conquerer-
Pride for the kingly crown;
But nobler is that triumph hour,
The Disseminated shall find,
When evil passions bowed down
Unto the god-like mind.

sThese medicines are indebted for their
name to their manifest and sensible action IN
purifying the springs and channels Of life, and
enduins them: with renewed tone and vlgor,
and to the undpubted fact that at a very early
period in their,history they had rescued suffer-
ers from the VERY verge of an u%ntin'ely, grave
after all the deceptive nostrums Of the day,
prescribed by physicians, had utterly failed, m
which cases they also permanently secured
that uniform enjoyment Of health, without
which life itsesf is but a partial blessing.

and fro, as if awaiting the arrival of some ex
pected person. The Count at once recognised
the gait of his wife he thought the form
somewhat too tall, but then, the peculiar dress
accounted for this. He walked directly up tc
the pretty magicien, and with the air of an
Olhello, said:
MADAME, follow me. | give you till morn-
ing to prepare your justification; and, mark
me well, wo to you if it be not complete !"
He offered his arm the magicien took il
without a word. They entered he coach, and
soon alightcd together at the hotel of the
Count. Mons. de P conducted the ma
gicien Immediately to the bed-chamber of the
countess, and rudely pushing her through
door, growled forth:
$50, madame and be not over-anxious to
silence reflection in sleep, for to me you must
soon render a terrible account
Then shutting and double-locking the door
he put the key in his pocket and retired to his
own apartment. At seven o'clock in the morn
ing he returned, bruskly unlocks the door,
and, entering the chamber Of bis lady, finds
| himself face to face with the magicien, who,
Invested of his mask, exhibited to the aston
shed Count a very beautiful pair Of mousta-
chios, and one of the most fashionable chin's
of hair Imaginable !!
"What the ID are you here for, sir =,
cried the Count.
"That's Just what | was about to ask you,
for it was you who brought me-" replied the
magicien.
The count sprang towards the bed, and
drew aside the curtains. The~countess was
there; and apparently awaking from a gentle
slumbcr, she raised her head, and in tones
sweet as seduction, inquired, "What's the
matter, my dear ]"
"Madame, answer me were you at the bal.
in the Opera last night"
"Oh! that's a rather hard Joke, love espe-
cially to commence the day with !"
by heavens, / shall 60 pad !" screamed
the count and turning in his evaporation on
the magicien, he found the spot just occupied
by that fortunate character, vacated. The
wolf he had penned in his sheep-iold, was
gonel
1t does not belong to Us to state whether
the repose of the countess had been disturbed
previous to the finale of this ceremony; it is
possible she rested sweetly during these hours
of ~yexation to her dear lord but this we do
pretend to assert, and we fear not the limits
of prepriety in so speaking-a jealous hus-
band should examine even the magi, in
carnival time, before locking one of them up
all night with his wife.
