A PoErIcAA SoMNAMBuLIsT.--A
young lady, daughter of Phillip G. Brown
a retired merchant, of New York city,

est by her performances. The New
York Day Book says:
almost every night after she has fal.

and taking paper and pencil wites sew.
eral stanzas Of poetry. Mr.. Brown, one
night last week, fearing that some acct
dent might occur from a sleeping person
having light, took the precaution to
have the fixtures removed from her room,
and placed beyond her reach.
That night she arose in perfect dark
ness, wrote another piece o! poetry,
which, upon examination by daylight,
was found to be well written, correctly
spelled and punctuated, and the ruled
lines as accurately followed as they could
have been by the best penman with a
light, and this has been repeated almost
every night; each time q new piece being
produced. She has no knowledge Of
the matter herself, cannot repeat word
of the poetry she writes, and insists that
she does not write it. Her friends watch
her closely. Her health is not very
good;. since her somrambulic exercises,
she seems to gradually fail. Physicians
have attended her for some time, but as
yet afford little relief"

OF Forney-formerly the firm friend
and confident OF President Buchanan
now one Of his most bitter opponents, is
greatly exercised on account Of the pro.
scriptions taking place under the aus
pieces Of the Administration. Speaking
of the tests applied to the Northern De-
mocracy, be says its only result has been
to unite the hitherto discordant elements
Of the opposition, and adds:
"Of course, such test produces retail
alton; and by the telegraph news we
find that the sentiment of hostility to Le-
compton, and of indignation against all
SITS, is at york in different quarters OF
Pennsylvania. Such is the penalty for
deserving a great principle. Whether
these mutterings of the popular indigna-
ton will lead to more moderate counsels
or whether they are to be de6ed, remains

W The indianapolis Journal Of Sat-
urday says that John L. Robinson has
reported in that city that Messrs. Eng
lish and Foley intend voting for the
Lecompton Constitution. We cannot
believe this. John L. Robinson being
the author of the report, adds doubt as
to it's truth. Whatever may be Mr.
English's personal inclinations, he is too
shrewd politician to do so foolish an
act. Only the other day in making an
appeal to the South not to sacrifice their
friends in the North, by insisting upon
the Lecompton Constitution, he stated,
that of all those Northern Representa-
tives who voted for the Nebraska bill,
only three or four now occupied seats in
the Horse. Public sentiment in the
United States is slow, but none the less
sure. As people, we are not subject
to such outbursts of ungovernable rage
as the French, nor to the irascibie up
heaving Of offended dignity as the Eng
lish. We are not excited to madness by
Marseilles Hymn, nor quieted into sub
mission by a gorgeous show. Our po-
litical wrath resembles not the boiling
fury Of brook out of its banks, SO much
as the ever swelling, constantly increas
ing volume Of mighty river. A thous-
and indignitics are necessary to move
the popular heart out Of its accustomed
circulation; but when once the sense oil
right and justice is OUTRAGEOUS Mr.
English says it will be if Lecompton is
passed.-woe be unto those who have
excited the storm. Executive favor is
shortlived, as Governors Walker and
Stanton are constantly testifying.
Messrs. English and Foley are vel
aware of the popular feeling in their res
pective districts, and we cannot think
they will totally disregard that feeling
stultify their past course and disgrace thu
State they represent, for any considera
ton whatever. We are disposed to thinl
we'll Of public servants, until, by thei
course, they forfeit our respect, an,
hope the rumor above is unfounded.

The Straight Line not Dead.

We are informed that parties from the
East have traversed the whole line of
the Straight Line Railroad the past week
and examined the route and the work
already executed, with view to revive
the enterprise, and to put the road.
through upon the original plan, provided
satisfactory arrangements can be made
with the present contractors. We learn
that the examination has been highly
satisfactory to the gentlemen from the
East, and there is a strong hope that the
whole work as far as completed, may be
transferred TO Eastern capitalists upon
terms satisfactory to the present contrac
tors and company, and highly advanta-
geous to the purchasers and the citizens
Of the country through which the ROAD
is located. The matter will be decided
at an early day; and before the expira-
ton Of another week, We hope to have
the pleasure Of announcing the execution
of the transfer. Should it be effected
the road will be pushed through to Indi.
annapolis without delay. All objections
to the issue Of the city bonds will BIZ
Withdrawn when the parties into whose
hands the road will fall, are known
This enterprise successfully completed
by foreign capital will lead to the be.
ginning Of another road to the West into
Illinois.
