Little Leander and his Poetess.


On Wednesday Of last week the Gin
cnnali police received dispatch direct
ing the arrest Of one Leander Adams, a
young fellow not out of his teens, who
had sold horse of his own, and left his
fathers country residence for the city,
with the inten, TO join a loving girl IN
Fleming county, Kentucky. The ardent
juvenile lover was taken into custody and
locked up, and on searching him at the
station house, he acknowledged that he
was prompted to run away from home by
the receipt of letter, which he handed 10
the officers, which was so pathetic and
poetic that he could not resist. The let
ter was from his girl, and, for the benefit
of those who may not have CLEAN OF
poetry in their souls, yet may wish 10
quote a tender couplet now and then,
when similarly moved by loves passion,
we extract gem or two. After two or
three times informing him that she lakes
her pen in hand to communicate various
facts, her Inauguration leads her TO au-
ticIpate the future in the following strain ::
"Mary Ellen Johnson is nv name,
And single is my station,
And happy will be the little man
That makes the alteration ~
She then wants TO know if he is in the
same notion as when she saw him last,
and 10 convince him that she is, assumes
the leap-year privilege, and fairly pops
the question in poetic style:
"If you knew how | loved you, and you
loved me,
A married couple we would be-"
And then again, for fear he may think
she is .as false as fair and 10 assure him
that cold weather makes no difference
with her 'phelinx,' she sends poetic as
surance that her love will not CONCEAL
81 send rarm my love, this cold wintry
day,
It's faithful love, and will neUer die a.
way"
After feeling reference TO red roses
and blue violets, and comparison OF her
lover TO sweet sugar the devoted speci-
men Of Kentucky crinoline closes her note
with dash of defiance al all attempts to
separate her from the chosen Of her heart,
thus &:
"If you love me as love you,
No shears could cut our love into y
Unfortunately Leander was overtaken
at Cincinnati by the cruel Parient,' and
taken back 10 the parental roof by The col
lar, so that Mary Ellen will have TO occu-
py her single station for some time longer.

Burning of Barn and over fifty Head
of Imported Cattle.


of Imported Cattle.
A shocking bonhagration occurred, on
Tuesday, on the Philadelphia and Lancas-
Ter Turnpike, about five and half miles
from Philadelphia proper, two miles from
Hestonvile, and two hundred yards from
the line separating Philadelphia and Mont
gomery counties. The building destroyed
was a very lage stone barn, belonging TO
Thomas p. Remington, Esq.
The barn contained fifty tons ofnay,a and
seventy head Of calle Four horses are
included in this statement. The cattle
was all of imported stock and of the most
valuable description, comprising bulls,
cows and calves, of Devon and Durham
breeds. Mr.. Remington paid much al
lention to his stock, and his assortment
was estimated as among the best in the
country.
Out of the seventy head OF cattle, all
but nineteen were destroyed. Of those
saved three were horses, and one was
calf, and fourteen were cows. Some of
the lower compartments of the barn con-
tained OK carts, wagons and agricultural
implements. All of these were destroyed,
About two o'clock in the morning, one

The barn was in flames. He at once went
out and attempted 10 save some OF the
property, but this he was unable TO do as

The flames were making rapid progress,
and IN short time, and, before assistance
could be obtained, The whole building, to-
gelher with It's contents, was destroyed.
The farmhouse was situated in close
proximity to the burning structure, and
vas in nminent danger. Fortunately,
however, the wind was favorable and tho

The total loss will not fall short Of

at $1,000 aud $4,000 each. There was
no insurance whatever. Two policies for

since, and were not renewed, although
arrangements were in progress 10 that el-

as residence IN summer, and occupied
during other seasons by tenant.
The origin Of the conaagraiion is as yet
a mysrery. While il is possible that il
may be rlghtfulIy attributed 10 sponta-

that it was the work Of an incendiary.
