| to speak. On the fifth or sixth day eve are
writing wholly from memory Mr.. Adams en-
| tered upon the defence. We have distinct
recollection of the mighty themes shadowed
forth in his outline, and which he proposed to
discuss at length; and Of the important docu-
ments for which he called under an order of
the House-his themes and his documents en-
brscing the whole circle of slavery. Having
laid out work enough, as he said, in response
to question from Southern member, to oc-
cupy two or three months, he began by an eX-
animation of the positions of his assailants,
seriatim. His reply to Marshall was magnifi-
cent. In the course Oft while responding to
Marshall's proposition to impeach him for
treason, he turned suddenly upon him-Mar-
shall plumed himself upon his birth and supe-
rior intellect-and said: :The trainers of the
Constitution have not left it for the puny mind
of the member from Kentucky to define what
treason is. They have declared it solely to
consist in levying war against the United
States, and giving aid and comfort to their en-
emies. Let him study the document 20
In his reply to Wise, he was terribly severe.
For once he made the naughty, brassy Vir-
ginian blanch and quail. Wise took an active
part In this attempt to degrade the old man.
1t viii be remembered that, on the occasion of
the Ciiley duel, the House appeared to be de-
termined to expel all the members who had
participated in that murder. Wise was one
Of the number. At critical stage of the con-
troversy, Mr.. Adams made speech against
the constitutional right of the House to expel
member without formal trial, and subse
quently made successful motion to lay the
subject On the table. Thus Wise was saved.
On the present occasion, in the course of his
reply to Wise's bitter attack, he fixed his eye
upon him, and pointing his skinny finger at
him, said sSAt period not far remote, when
the member now sitting in that chair, entered
TINS Hail, pale and haggard, his hands all drip
ping with the red blood of fellow member,
and this House in its Indignation was about to
expel him from its presence, who interposed
the shield of the Constitution in defence of
his privileges, and saved him from disgrace
And is this the return he renders me for that
service ?''
When the old man was uttering these terri
bic words, Wise, who was sitting erect at
their commencement, taking notes, began to
settle down lower, and lower, and lower, all
eyes fixed upon him, till at their conclusion,
his abashed countenance completely hid
den beneath his desk. No convicted culprit,
standing in the dock, and writhing under the
sentence of judge, ever exhibited more
pitiable spectacle than did the cowed Virgin
ian.
We must forbear further details. Suffice it
to say, that at the end of the twelfth day, the
Shareholders, beaten at all points, and driven
from the field, while Mr.. Adams only on
the threshold of the discussion, were glad to
lay their own resolutions on the table, and
give up the contest.

A NEW FIELD.

For several years past theTerritories of Kan
and Nebraska have filled large place in
the public eye; but there is another region
which bids fair, ere long, to divert to itself the
public gaze. Mr.. John X. Bartlett, late United
States Boundary Commissioner, has written
letter recently to Lieut.. Mowry, the delegate
in Congress from Arizona, which shows that
this new and hitherto unknown Territory is
destined 10 become one of the most important
and fourishing portions of our vast domain.
1t has, on the South, u frontier of about six
hundred miles, and is occupied by a mixed
race of Mexicans and Spaniards. According
to Mr.. Bartlett'S account, the agricultural re-
sources of the territory are rich and abundant,
being probably unsurpassed by any portion of
our country. The mineral wealth of the coun-
try is also said to be extensive and varied.
The Sankita mountains are said to abound in
silver. West of the mountains are both cop
per and silver. Other mines in the Territory,
yet unopened, are thought to contain gold,
silver and copper, cannabar and lead. Some
of the grain regions are quite remarkable, and
the territory whole is represented pre-
senting extraordinary advantages and induce
ments to the hardy emigrant.
Our readers are, doubtless, aware of the steps
which have been taken towards the formation
of territorial government for Arizona. Dur
ing the last session Of Congress the subject of
the organization of the Territory was first agi-
tated, and bill introduced by the late Sena-
judicial district and land office but it did not
pass the House for want of time. The people
of the Territory have now sent petition to
Congress which asks more than the bill provi-
ded for. They desire to be separated entirely
from the Territory of New Mexico, from which,
thew alege, their interests are entirely dis
tinct, and to be taken under the more direct
protection of our Government, a seperate
organization.
1t will thus be seen that Arizona will, ere
long, be opening its gates for immmgration
from the States; floods of population will
doubtless pour into SO rich and so promising n
region, and soon she may be knocking at the
door Of the Union for entrance, State.
May we not indulge the hope that such
scenes as have witnessed in Kansas may
not be repeated there-instead of coming into
the Union in the midst of shocks and commo-
tions and the smoke and fire and blood of civil
war, she may be welcomed to the fraternal cir
Gle quietly and peacefully. causing no section
al disturbances-no partisan divisions, or per-
sonal anmosities. God knows we have seen
and heard enough of these things at every
step which unfortunate Kansas has taken to-
wards our Union door.

Smiths health, as his appetite seemed to be
very poor, and had been getting SO for some
time past.
Smith tried to be particularly good that day.
and had not Nancy been in his secret, she
would have taken his attentions for genuine
love. Smith informed his wife at dinner that
he had some urgent business on hand, and that
he should not probably be at home TO supper.
Mrs. Smith was sorry, but couldn't help it.
Night came, and so did 10 O'Clock, which
time found Smith at the foot of the lane. A
female form closely enveloped sprang into his
carriage, and Smith, embracing her fondly,
drove off as rapidly as his fast horse would
carry them. On, on, they drove, clinging to
each other with all the tenderness of affection,
he snatchng kiss every now and then from
the nectar lips which spoke only in signing
whispers. Smith declared it the happest mo-
ment in his life; and she only answered his
loving protestations with a warmer embrace.
Smith longed for the light once more, that
he might look into her love- b-aming eyes and
read the tender thought she could not speak.
Light did come at last, and when the faintest
streak of crimson tinged the eastern hills with
mellow light, Smith sought once more to
feast his eyes upon those sparkling orbs which
captivated him at the meetings. lie took hold
of her dimple chin and turned her face loving
ly up to his, when-O, horrors!! Nancy, his
own little wife, was looking him straight in

TO the roof of his mouth. Nancy roguishly
smiled and said
ssLook into my loving eyes. Jim - but Jim

ssthe happiest moment in her life.'
ssJames,'' said she, edo you see that house
yondera That is mine, and if you have no OBJ
jections, ,ce 1UiH spend the first night there"
Nancy had slyly turned the horse on a diff
ferent road in the right direction to reach
home again about daylight.
| never could learn from Mrs. Smith what
Jim said when he did speak, but she says he is
the best man she ever saw. But Nancy did
tell one wrong story. She came home from a
call just before it was time for Kate to start,
crying with tears in her eyes that her husband
had got thrown from his buggy and nearly
killed, and that she must go and take care of
him. That was the reason Kate didn't go that
time, and no attempt has been made since.

DOMESTIC ECONOMY.

SELECTING SEED CoRN.-One of our sgricul-
tural readers says, he never has any trouble a.
bout his corn terminating. When he is about
to shell his crop, he looks out carefully for his
seed. Selecting the largest and best ears, he
breaks them in two, and examines the cob. II
it is dark colored, or exhibits the least sign of
decay, it is at once rejected. If on the other
hand, the cob is bright and sound, the corn has
all its terminating qualities, and it is saved for
seed. BY this process the farmer is sure to
have good seed. The experiment is simple and
easily tried, and as there can be no doubt Of
its success, vast deal OF time, labor and vex-
alton will be saved to the farmer after the corn
is planted.-Del. Co. Rep.
FooD FOR FowLs.-Fowls are, Of all birds,
the most easy to feed. Every alimentary sub
stance agrees with them, even when it is bur-
led IN manure; nothing is lost to them they
are seen the whole day long, necessarily busted
in scratching aud picking up a living. In
wel-fed fowls, the difference will be seen, not
only in the size and the flesh of the fowls, but
in the weight and goodness of the eggs, two
of which go farther, in domestic uses, than
three from hens poorly fed, or half starved.
1t is customary to throw to the fowls in poul-
try yard, once or twice day, quantity Of
grain, generally corn, and SOM etimes less than
that which they would consume, if they had an
abundance. Fowls, however, are more easily
satisfied than might be supposed from the
greedy voracity which .they generally exhibis
when they are being fed from the hand. 1t is
we'll known that, as general rule, large ami
mails consume more than small ones. There
is as much difference in the quantity of food
consumed by individual fowls as there is in
animals. 1t has been found, by careful exper-
iments, that the sorts of food most easily di-
gested by fowls, are those of which they eat
the greater quantity; they evidently become
soonest tired of and are least partial to rye.
1t has also been found that there is considers
y. 60
ley, well boiled, as the grain is thus increased
in bulk at least one-fourth, and the same bulk
seems to satisfy them but there is no saving
by boiling oats, buckwheat or rye.

AMUsING.-A few miles below Poughkeep-
sic, New York, there now lives, and has lived
for several years past, a worthy clergyman, a
man, however, very short in stature. Upon a
certain Sunday, about eight years ago, this
clergyman was invited by the pastor of a
church in that village, to fill his pulpit for the
day. The invitation was accepted, and SUM-
day morning saw Mr.. = in the pvlpit. Now
it happened that the pulpit was very high
one, and accordingly nearly hid the poor lit
tie Clergyman from view. However, the con-
gregation, out of respect, managed to keep
their countenanceS, and with over pious faces,
seemed religiously anxious for the text. They
were not obliged to wait long, for a nose and
two little eyes suddenly appeared over the top
of the pulpit, and neutrality-suspicious. voice
proclaimed in nasal tones the text: ''Be of
good cheer, it is 1; be not afraid.'' A gener-
al roar of laughter followed the announcement
the clergyman became confused, and turned
all sorts of colors. Many in the general up
roar left the church, and it was a long time be-
fore the minister was enabled to proceed with
his sermon, so abruptly broken off. Afternoon
came, and the little man, standing on a foot
stool, had a fair view of his audience. The
text was announced IN due form. ga little
while and We shall see me, and again a little
while and ye shall not see me-" In the course
of his sermon he repeated his text with great
earnestness, and stepping back lost his eleya-
ted footing and disappeared from all his hear
ers. The effect may be more readily imagin-
ed than described.

HE'S COMING.

The following, clipped from the Louisville 10
i; Is about as sweet a little thing of the kind
} have ever seen:
He's coming. the blushing rose
Whispers it low to me,
And the starlight hastens with It,
Over the twilight sea.
All trembling, the zephyrs tell me,
On light winds hurrying past,
And my own heart, quickly beating,
Coming, coming at last.
The soft-lipped waves of the ocean,
Gathering at my feet,
Breeze borne from the coral islands,
Murmur the secret sweet.
There's not dew-steeped blossom,
Or glistening orange tree,
But furnish their leaves glee-laden,
To breathe this joy to me.
List. that is the sound of rowing
Stealing along the air;
must gather round my temples
The weight of this braided hair,
And trust to the growing darkness,
And evening shadows dim,
To hide with their wings the traces
Of tears I've shed for him.

HOW TO TELL.

Here is bit of advice to young ladies, set
ting forth how they may know whether gal
liant is really counting them, or only paying
them polite attentions. The confonnding the
one with the other has been the source of very
much trouble, both before and since the era of
Mr.. Pickwick and Mrs. Burdell
A young man admires pretty girl, and
must manifest it. He can't help doing so for
the life of him. The young lady has tender
heart, reaching out like vine tendrils for some
thing to cling to. She sees the admiration, is
hattered; begins soon to love; expects some
tender avowal; and perhaps gets so far as to
decide that she will choose white satin under
that gauze, &c, at the very moment that the
gallant she half loves is popping the question
to another damSel ten miles off
Now the difficulty lies in not precisely un-
derstanding the difference between polite at
tentions and the tender manifestations of love.
Admiring beautiful girl, and wishing to make
wife of her, are not always the same thing;
and therefore it is necessary that the damsel
should be on the alert to discover to which
class the attentions paid her by the young
gentlemen belong.
First then if young man greets you in
loud, free and hearty tone; if he knows pre-
cisely where to put his hands; if he stares
you straight in the eye, with his mouth wide
open; ; if he turns his back upon you to speak
to another; il he tells you who made his coat
if he SqueeZeS your hand if he eats heartily
in your presence +; if he fails to lalk very kind
ly to your mother; if in short ne sneezes
when your are singing, criticises your curls,
or fails to be foolish fifteen times every hour,
then don't fall in love with him for the world
He only admires you let him say what he win
to the contrary.
On the other hand, if he be merry with
everybody else, but quiet with you if he be
anxious to see if your tea is sufficiently swee-
tened, and your dear person well wrapped up
when you go out into the cold; if he talks
very low and never looks you steadily in the
eye; if his cheeks are red and his nose only
bushes. it is enough. If he romps with your
sister, sighs like pair of bellows, looks SOL
emn when you are addressed by another gen.
tleman, and in fact is the most still, awkward
stupid, yet anxious of all your male friends,
yeu may 60 ahead and make the poor fellow
happy?
Young ladiesl keep your hearts in case
of good leather, or some other tough sub
stance, until the right one is found beyond a
| doubt, after which you can go on and love,
and court, and be married and happy, without
the least bit of trouble.
