65-An aged lady died in this city a few
days since, who in youth refused a marriage
offer from John Quincy Adams. 1t will be
recollected that, when a young man, Mr..
Adams resided for a ;ime in Newburyport,
and here Became acquainted with the lady
above alluded to, VINO belonged to one of
the most fashionable and respectable fami-
lies in the place, and proposed to make her
his wife. She declined his offer and united
her destiny with one accomplished as a
scholar, and more fortunate in his natural
endowments than otherwise and thus the
belle of Newburyport failed to preside at
the White House, for which she would have
been every way fitted -NetoburypOrt Union.
1t is possible that John Quincy Adams
might never have reached the White House
had he married "the belle of Newburyport."
Who can say that it was not the influence
of just such a wife as Mr.. Adams possessed
that urged him on to the high position which
he attained! Had fortune bestowed on him
the hand of some other air dame, than the
estimable and accomplished woman he mar
ried, he might have LETT behind him the re-
p~utation of having been ''more fortunate
in his natural endowments than otherwise"

CHESTNUT TREEs.-On poor land or n
rocky soil the chestnut is one of the most
profitable forest trees that can be cultivat-
ed; its growth is very rapid, the timber is
always in good demand, and the fruit is of
considerable value. Some cultivate this
tree for its fruit alone. We have often won
dered that it is not more regarded as an or
namental tree. None grow larger, and few
more symmetrically; its blossoms are hand
some and unique and SO are its golden
burs and rich nuts. Parks and pleasure
grounds should always be supplied with the
chestnut tree; also with the black walnut,
and best varieties of the hickory nut
Strange that these splendid fruit treets
should be almost ostracised from ornament
al grounds; its mere caprice that has done
this in the United States; in o.her countries
they are highly priced and carefully cult
vated.-Am. Ag.

THE SUDDEN DEATH OF Mr.. STuYvEs-
AKT.-We mentioned, yesterday, that John
R. Stuyvesant, a wealthy citizen of New
York, who had charged DR.. John r. Sey-
mour and wife with conspiring to defraud
him out of a house and lot worth $4,000,
died suddenly on Thursday morning, a few
hours before the examination into the
charge was to take place. The Tribune
says:
Some persons were 80 uncharitable as to
~insinuate that Mr.. Stuyvesant had Commit
ted suicide, prefering death to enduring the
stigma which has already been cast upon
him by the affair in connection with Mrs.
Sey mour, aud what might be further devel-
oped should he have allowed himself to be
put on the stand for cross examination by
Seymour's counsel. The insinuation is
probably untrue.
Seymour was taken before Judge Mitch
ell, of the Supreme Court, soon after on a
writ of habeas corpus, but it being officially
announced that Mr.. Stuyvesant had
died, as above stated, the counsel for the
prosecution thereupon abandoned the case,
there being TO living witness to appear and
prosecute. Mr.. Stuyvesant was a man
upwards of forty years of age, and has left
a wi e aud two or three children living, as it
is stated, in Poughkeepsic. He died at the
residence of his mother, in Second avenue,
near Eleventh st. 1t was stated, but with
what truth we know not, that a physician
had given a certificate of death by cholera.
On Wednesday afternoon the deceased was
at the Lower Police Court in the apparent
enjoyment of good health. His death was
therefore very sudden, and no doubt unex-
pected by his friends On hearing of the
occurrence, Coroner O'Donnell made inqui-
ry respecting it, but up to Thursday evening
was unable to learn anything of a s%atisIac-
tory nature. He requested the City lnspec-
tor not to file the certificate until an inves-
tigation should be made in the matter.
