VERFIcATIoN OF A DREAM.--Just two weeks
since last Saturday night, says the Boston Tran
script, young lady residing in Hanover ST., in
this city retired to bed at her usual hour, and in
her usual cheerful, happy frame of mind. After
having fallen asleep, she had frightful dream of
vision. She dreamed that her brother, who was
in the western part of New York, was killed, and
his body horribly mangled in death. This dream
seemed so vivid and real, and impressed her
mind so forceibly; that she woke, and even rose
from her bed, and walked her room, weeping in
great anguish.
Another lady, who was asleep in an adjoining
chamber, was awakened by her wailings, and on
going into the room to ascertain the cause, found
her sitting in chair weeping. The lady endeav-
ored to soothe her tears, and finally persuaded
her to retire once more to bed, and try to forget
her dream. The next Monday morning the
ycnng lady received photographic dispatch, an
nouncing that her brother, Mr.. Wise, brake
man on the Western Railroad had failed from the
cars on one of the freight trains, near East Chat
ham, N. Y, and been run over, and instantly
killed. The accident happened at about two o.
clock on Sunday morning about the time of the
dream.

AMIN BEY'S VISIT TO THF UNITED
STATES.

1t may be interesting to many of our readers,
at the present time, to give the object of the Wis
it of this distinguished Turk to the United States
We give an extract from speech made by him
in reply to Mr.. Webster at the recent dinner in
Boston:
At no moment since my arrival in the New
World, have felt so much satisfaction and pride
as at the present. believe it is generally known
that the mission with which have been honor
ed by my government to that of the United States
of America, is simply and purely one of friend
ship and inquiry after information useful to my
countrymen at home. Politics have no part in
it. For many years past, perfect good will
and the kindest feelings have existed between
my own government and that of the United States
between the Far East and the Far West.
| am here to use my humble endeavors to
strengthen that good will, to render the dura-
ton of these kind feelings permanent; and, not
withstanding the immense distance which sepa-
rates America from Turkey-Washingto from
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES happily exists relations
between the two countries of commercial ma
ture which tend TO draw them nearer every day.
The people of these two countries may now read
lily visit each other with increased facilities by
means of steam, which believe may call ear
nestly, and for the best of reasons the Ameri-
can element and thus may cultivate with each
other new and more Intimate relations. My
own government has strongly at heart the ex-
tension of these relations of commerce with the
United States. 1t secs in than the only true ba-
sis OF amity between the two nations; for with
out them, and those of mutual usefulness gener.
ally, there would not exist between different ma.
tons and people other feelings than those of sell
fishness and mutual jealousy. Commerce rem
ders all governments respected by the strength
which it gives to them, and adds happiness and
comfort to the nations engaged in it."

THE FIRE AT DETROIT

further details Of the loss BY the burning Of the
Central Rail Road Freight Depot in that city on
Tuesday last. The total loss is variouly stated
at 100000 to $l5OOO0. Amongst the freight
destroyed were 10000 barrels of Flour, 25 900
bushels of wheat, and several tons of merchan-
die. The Express Car of Livingston and Fargo
was burnt, with packages belonging to the fol-
lowing among our citizens. w. N. Lamar; Lud-
ington & King D. B. Ogden; P. M. KNOX; N.
Mack & Co.
The fire was first discovered in the cupola, be-
tween and O'Clock in the morning. Cause
unknown. The Depot, which was 800 feet long,
by 100 wide, cost $4,000. AS the foundations
and portions of the walls are uninjured, it can
be rebuilt for $4,000. The loss of the r. R.
Company is about $4O,000--no insurance.

The wedding

The bride turned little pale, and then flushed,
and at last had just the right quantity of bright,
becoming color, and almost shed a tear, but not
quite, tor smile came instead and chased it away.
Ihe bridegroom was warned not to forget the
ring, and all were assembled round the altar. 81
will, was uttered in clear low voice, and the
new name written-Sophy Grey no more and
she turned her bright face to be looked on, and
loved, and admired by the crowd of relations and
friends surrounding her and they thought that
Sophy Stockton was still dearer and prettier than
ever Sophy Grey had been--and then the car
riages were entered and the house was reached
Sophy walked in her fathers house-her child
hoods home-her home no longer-and the bril-
dial dress was changed, and the travelling dress
took Its place and all crowded around her--her
father, and mother, the sister, the brothers--all
crowded around her to say good bye-to look, and
look on that dear face once more--to feel that
her fate was seaed--to pray that it might be a
happy one"-to think that she was going away
away with stranger ? and tears and smiles min
gled, and the fond looks, and long embraces and
fathers mingled tear of joy and sorrow was on
her cheek and the sisters tear that yainly tried
to be smile, and the mothers sobs and Sophv

bright beam of JOY and hope upon her brow : and

the last good bye uttered--and Sophy was gone.
y! how melancholy !--how lonely does the
house appear, where but moment before all had
been interest and hurry Who has not expert
enced the deserted sensation, when those we
have been accustomed to see are gone--wher
the agitation, the interest at parting is over, the
folorn, empty look Of the room--the workbox the
drawing materials, the music all one,or perhaps
one single thing left to remind how ali was
flower, perhaps that had been gathered and cast
aside-the cover of letter which has been scrib-
bled over in forgetfulness of the happy CONVEX
sation.

SMELLING CoRN-Sel no corn in the ear,
have all you sell Shelied-a hand Smelling ma
chine will answer if your crop is small one
if large, get one to be worked by horse power /;
neither will cost great deal--and we are very
certain that the cobs, if crushed, steamed and fed
to your cattle, will be worth more to you in sim
gle winter, than the price ola corn-sheler, wheth-
er You get small one or largo one. We be-
leve there is one-third as much nutriment in a
bushel of cobs, as there is in bushel of grain
and we do know that cows or oxen fed upon three
pecks of the steamed or crushed cobs, in addi-
ton to their usual quantity of hay tops of fodder,
will keep fat. Then why haul your corn cobs
to market to be given aways It'costs you as
much to carry bushel of cobs TO market as ii
does bushel of corn. Sell your corn and leave
your cobs at home to nourish your cattle, and
through them your land, and where you now send
one hushel of corn, you will be able to trans
port, two for the same money Look this sub
ject in the face--consult economy, consult the
comfort of your cattle, consult the wants of your
soil, and you cannot fail to take our advice.

WITHIN the last few years rapid change has
being going on in the character OF the craft en-
ployed on Lake Ontario. For the last two sea-
sons nothing in the shape of schooner has paid
expenses--not more at any rate-while the
screw propelers or polliaoags, have been carrying
off all the business. No one will send wheat to
Montreal in schooner if steam craft is to be had
The reason is obvious; for the propellers can
carry from the head of Lake Ontorio to Montreal
for shilling, Halifax currency, bushe, while
the schooners demand Is. Sd. and can hardly live
at that. The consequence will be that, in a few
years, there will be nothing but steam craft on
the Lake. The advantages of swiftness in these
days is also greatly in favor of the steam-craft,
and will aid In bringing about that revolution
that will make the Lake schooner thing of the
past.
1t has just been ascertained by an experiment
that the long Sault, hitherto considered the most
dangerous rapid Of the st. Lawrence, has depth
of ten feet OF water for forty feet wide. During

Know We where two bright rivers flow.
Where the beech and the elm trees grow
mere the brave freemen and patriots dwell
That land OF fame who could not tell
Who could not tell that sunny spot
Its fairy scenes and happy lot.
The fairest spot upon the earth,
For twas the place of Elias birth.
Know we the land where the Dneper runs.
That land Of noble and patriot sons!
How many brave and daring hand
Have tried to save that noble landi
Yet all was frutless-all in vain,
And Oscar may neer see again
That far-amed land where he was born,
Its fate is sad-its hopes forlorn!
Albeit these lands remot e-apart,
from each there came lonely heart
They met and lov'd-but oh how sad,
Their future fate in grief is clad
His destiny how strange-how sad
His heart whilOm was ever glad
And yet Its joys were fieeting breath
Their source was love-their name was death!
@sweet Ella say, wilt thou be miner
My life shall be forever thine
IT'S true my heart has often bled,
But my lone feelings not dead!
"That witching loOk-that smiling eve,
For thee would make me live and die!
Beloved one! wilt be my bride?"
And Ella wept and Oscar sigh'd!
" o noble Oscar!" Ella said,
know thy feelings are not dead;
But thine lone heart has suffer'd pain,
L fear 1t ne'er can love again
81 cannot make you happy, love,
1t is thus order'd from above
That our hopes be rent in twain
And your lone heart in grief remain J"
sNo, dearest Ella, It's not so,
The hearts keen sufferings none can know:
Still it can love being like you,
Sonoble, generous and true!
" lis true the hopes of this lone heart

But still its pulses beat for you,
Fondly, dear Ella, ever true!"
go no, no, Oscar" Ella said,
"Your hopes in death have twice been laid
Your once bright star for aye has set
Alas why have we ever met
"Great wealth to love have been taught.
Mine e'er has been happy lot;
must not love the heart alone
what Is the heart when wealth is gomez"
81 have lonely, humble cot,
With thee, how happy were my lot!
But wealth, dear Ella, have none,
Except the heart-that is thine own!'
Bright hopes and fame may yet be mine,
My gloomy star may proudly shine,
If thou but lend thy sunny smile,
1t would lifes weary dream beguile! !"
They walk'd in sadness-all was still,
And gently sung the purling rill;
Their eyes met-but they must part,
How lonely, sad, was Oscars heart!
And Elias soul was sad and lone,
Her heart, perchance, some one may own
That will have wealth, some fame of birth,
Yet may not prize its sacred worth!
And Ella wept, and Oscar sighed,
Their tones in distant echoes died;
They parted thus, in bitter pain
Their hopes and fears seem'd all in vain!
And now dark clouds began to rise
The lightning play'd amid the skies,
The wild storm raged-the tn under rolld-
The lovers fate-remans untold!
