Love’s Remembrance. I will remember thee, —in that still hour When like a stream of beauty, from the west, Heaven’s ewectesf beam shed down a golden dower • Of light upon the waters, —whose unrest And moodiness might well be charmed away, By the pure loveliness of that soft ray ! I will remember thee, —when night hath thrown . Its dreams around the sleeper, and repose , Hath calmed the worn and aching spirit down | To brief oblivion of its waking woes; j Then—when deep silence reigneth oyer all, | My lonely thoughts thy image Bhall recall. | I will remember thee,— hath hung Hfer banner on the hills,—aitd kindling dreams Of sunlight, in warm diamond showers are flung Upon the surface of.the bounding streams Which move in their exulting course along, Free as the murmurs of their own wild song. I will remember thee, —when summer’s balmy sigh Breathes o’er the mountains, and the laughing earth Is zoned with roses —while deep, melody Hath in the woods,,with the wild flowers, its birth From joyous birds, who mid their green homes there pour forth their music on the clear blue air. *1 will remember thee,— through many a scene Of pleasantness and solitude.; —for thou Upon my dark and troubled path hath been A vision blest and cheering,—as the bow That spans the thunder-clouds: a thing of light, As'early hope’s first dreamings pure and bright. A Touching Story. The following affecting story purports to have been given by a fatherto his son, as a warning de rived from his own bitter experience of grieving and resisting a movers love and counsel: « What agony was visible on my mother's face when she saw that all she said and suffered, failed to move me ! She rose up to go home, and I fol- lowed at a distance. She spoke no more to me ti she reached her own door.” . “It is school time now,” said she. “Go my son and let me once more beseech you to think upon what I have said.” “ I shan't go to school,” said I. She looked astonished at my boldness, but re plied firmly. » “ Certainly you will go, Alfred, I command you. u I will not!” said I, in a tone of defiance. “ One of two things you must do, Alfred—either go to school this moment, or I will lock you in your room, and keep you there till you are ready to promise implicit obedience to my wishes in fu- “I dare you to do it," said I, t: you can’t get me up stairs." t “ Alfred, choose now,” said my mother, who laid her hand on my arm. • She trembled violently and was-deadly pale. “ If you touch me, I will kick you,” said 1 in a terrible rage. God knows i kiiew not what I said. “ Will you go, Alfred V' “ No,'’ I replied, but quailed beneath her eye. <• Then iollow me," said she, as she grasped my arm firmly. I my foot—oh! my son hear' m e! I raised my foot and kicked her—my sainted mother. How my head reels, as the torrent of memory rushes over me ! I kicked my mother— a ieeble woman—my mother. Shi* staggered back a few steps and leaned against the wall. She did not look at me. ■ I saw her heart beat againßt her breast. . “ Oh! Heavenly Father,” she cried, “ forgive him, he knows not what he does." The gardener just then passed the door and see ing my mother pale and almost unable to support herself, he stopped ; she-beckoned him in. “ Take this boy up stairs and lock him in his own room,” said she, and turned from me. Looking back as she was entering her room, she gave me such a look—it will forever follow me—it Was a look of agony, mingled with the intensest love—it was the last uuutterable pang of a heart that tvas broken. In a moment I found fi?yself a prisoner in my own room. I thought for a moment I would fling myself from the open window and dash my brains out, but I felt afraid to die. I was not penitent.— At dimes mv heart was subdued, but my stubborn pride rose in.an instant, and bade me not yield.— The pale face of my mother haunted me. 1 flung myself on the bed and fell asleep. Just at twilight I heard a footstep approach the door. It was my sister. “ What may I tell mother for you!’’ she asked. “ Nothing,” I replied. " Oh, Alfred, for my sake, for all our sakes, say that you are sorry—let me tell mother that you are sorry. , She longs to forgive you.” I would not answer. I heard her footsteps slowly retreating, and again 1 flung myself on the bed to pass another wretched and fearful night. Another footstep, slower and feebler than my sister's disturbed me. A voice called me by name. It was my mother’s. I cannot tell what influence, operating at that moment, made me speak averse to my feelings.— The gentle voice of my mother that thrilled thro' me, melted the ice from my obdurate heart, and I longed to throw myself on her neck, but I did not. But my words gave the lie to my heart, when I said I was not sorry. I heard her withdraw. I heard her groan, I longed to call her back, but I did not ... I was awakened from my uneasy slumber, by , hearing my name called loudly, and my sister , stood by my bedside. , Get up, Allred. Oh, don't wait a minute. Get ( up and come with me.. Mother is dying.” ' , k I thought I was yet dreaming, I got up melan-, choly and followed my'sister. On the bed, pale and cold as marble, lay my mother. She had not, undressed. She had thrown herself on the bei! to rest; arising to go again to me, she was seized with a palpitation of- the heart, and borne senseless to . her room. •’ •. 1 I cannot tell you my agony as. I f looked on-her ; ; my remorse was tentold more bitter from the tho’t j; she would never know it. I believed myself to be - n her murderer. I fell on the bed beside her. I could not weep. My heart burned in my bosom ; my brain was all on fire. My sister threw her arms around me and wept in silence. Suddenly we saw *;• a slight motion of mother’s hand—her eyes unclo sed,. She had recovered consciousness but not speech. She looked at me, and moved her. lips. 1 could not understand her words, —“ Mother, moth i erX shrieked, “ say only that you can forgive me.” She conld not say it with her lips, hut her hand pressed mine. She smiled upon me, and lilting.hfer thin, white hands, she clasped my own within them, and cast her eyes upwards. She moved her lips.in prayer, and thus she died. I remained still kneel, mg by that dead form, till my gentle sister remo ved me The»joy ol my youth had left me forever. Boy's who spurn a mother's control, who are ashamed to own that they are wrong, who think it manly to resist her authority, or defy her influence, • - beware! Lay not up tor yourselves bitter memo ries for your future years.” JX3*A most extraordinary beer drinker has just died in the north of France. He drank ten quarts a day, from the age of 18 .to that of 60, and the average of his daily consumption, during the 61 years of his existence, was at least four 'tjuarts, giving the enormous amount of 132,860 quarts, during his life time. The excise on this quantity would be over $6OO. He was also an invetrate smoker, and in seventy-five years used over 8,000 pounds of tobacco. Lancaster Danger of Electldnejerlng.

The lollow in- extract of a letter to the editor pf the Picayune, describing one of his electioneering tours, is a spe cimen of the luck he had in this delightful business • .. Well, I put up wilt a first-rate, good natured feller that I met at a billiard table I went in and was introduced to his wife, a fine fat woman, who looked as though'she lived on laffin; her lace was loYull Of lun. After a while-after wed talked about my gal, and about the garden, and about the so.on-in came *ree or four chrldren laffin and skippin as merry as crickets, there warn't no candle lit, but I could see they.were fine Tooking fellows, and I started for my saddl.| bags n which I had put a lot of sugar candy for the chil dren, as I want along. '‘Come here, ’ said I, “you litfie rogue, come along here, and tell me what your name isthe oldest then come up to me, and says he : ’ “My name is Peter Smithy sir/ ; “And what’s your name, sir?” said l. “Bob Smith, sir.” ■ , , .

I thought Miss Smith would have died a laffin at that; her arms fell down by her sidei, and her head fell back, and she shook the hull house la “Do you think so, Col.

DEITSJSOJr. “ I can tell when a woman’s jface is beautiful, ’’ said a friend to us the other day, 1 “ but I don’t know what you call a handsome man ” We might have referred him 1 to the popular ro mances ol the present day for a description of manly beauty, but having little sympathy for those perfect beings, expansive brows of snowy white ness, blue black, or gray eyes, finely chiselled fea. tures, rich wavy curls, and all the minutia of fan cied perfection, we simply said; we believed there was no particular standard of ihe’auty recognized among the ladies with reference to his sex, and we think that in so are Correct. “ 1 do not like a pretty man With pretty lips and pretty walk, With hands that prettily sport a fan, And delicate lips that prettily talk ” The frank, open countennnce, cheerful with the light of, a sunshiny disposition; [the thoughtful, pla cid brow or low lips, firm when in thought, yet flexible and smiling in conversation, the -goodness of a refined nature illuminating every lineament — give us these in preference to all your set, fine fa ces. And even the irregular features of what are called decidedly plain mep, we have seen glow with an expression absolutely beautiful as some all pervading theme of interest lighted up the face, so that the crooked nose, even ithe heavy shapeless forehead, and the dull eyes, have caught a reflec tion of the inner loveliness, the beauty of the soul. Then, gentlemen, remember; it does not need the air and face of an Adonis to please and interest us ladies. Only let us read upon the countenance the stamp of a, cultivated mind, or the quick light ing up of the eye, as some generous impulse prompts to an act of kindness; let us behold you at once dignified and courteous, gentle and refined to all alike, even to the erring, delicate in your at tentions (especially to us ladies,) unbending in your will only when in the absolute right, gentlemanly in your address, and neat in person, and we all . will (those whose opinion is off any value of, course) pronounce you handsome /without a dissenting voice. - , Remember that the qualities of the heart* and actions of the life stamp the : features with an tn effacable mark either with goodness or vileness, and cultivate those affections and habits which will write upon the tablets of your countenance that which no one reading can but love and admire. Atrocious Villainy! The trial of the individuals charged with various attrocities at Detriot and its neighborhood, was still in progress at our latest dates. The testimony embodies a train of facts of the-most startling character, and proves that a wicked men united themselves together for the most iniquitous purposes. As a sample of the evidence we invite attention to the following: “On or about the 11th of September "I had =a conversation with Fitch, in which he said if they did not succeed in throwing; off the trains during the State Fain at the Points, named West of Jack son, Whitebridge, Dry Marsh’, and at the high em bankment east of Francisville, they would burn the four depots at Detroit, Ann Arbor, Jackson and d * * “ He skid he wanted to show the people of Mich ican lhat the feeling against [the road was not local. If they could succeed in killing from 100 to 150 persons during the Fair it would bring the company to their terms—they would, if this did not do it, burn them. And he then proposed to give me or any body else $lOOO for burning these four depots, $250 for either of them ;{ he said he thought I would be a good person to do it, as I had frequent business over the road,” \ It will’be seen from the foregoing that the par- ticulsrs of this transaction; proposed to kill 150 persons for the purpose.of bringing the railroad company to terms! • This stated in a work of ro mance would be'denounced [as absurd and prepos terous in almost any age {or country. Another 1 witness testified that on the 20th of August last 1 he, in connexion with several others, moved the track at Michigan Centre,land thus the train ran off. On another occasion two of the.parties laid a stick 12 feet long, a foot wide, and seven or eight inches thick, across the. track over a- culvert, and the train was thus injured and detained. At another time a piece of iron was (placed .on the switch, with the object of throwing the train off. On several occasions the cars containing passengers were stoned, and a witness was j threatened with death if he should expose! these 1 diabolical move mentß. We trust the guilty parties will meet with adequate punishment. Such deliberate efforts to accomplish wholesale murder, are calculated to thrill the mind with horror.

D. Coad, Esq .who presented it to his nephew, J. Edwin Coad, Esq., of Great Mills, St. Mary’s Co., Md., who cultivated it in his garden in 1847—the product was a pint and a half in 1848, 2 bushels—in 1849, about 2o bushels were made,.2o of which were sown, and 5 other-k wise disposed of—in 1850, Mr. Coad reaped 300 bushels, 150 of which he sold or distributed gra tuitously, and the olJier 150 bushels were sown, from which his present crop was reaped. Just be fore haivest, the father of Mr. Coad left "; llh some of the heads of his wheat, (of which he had also about 40 acres in cultivation.) and the ac counts we had received of it, induced us to accept an invitation to visit him, to satisfy ourself o e character of the wheat then growing on his own and on the farm of his son. We arrived there on the 15th of June, and found some parts of the held ready for harvesting-; we passed through it m vari ous directions, to obtain a sample of the whole field, which was brought up and exhibited at the meeting of the State Society on the 18th ult. There is nothing positively known as to the origin of this wheat—as well as can be remembered by the Messrs. "Coad, the package from the Patent Office was labelled, that it was from New Tork, where 52 bushels to the acre had been raised from it—another account, is, that it was received from Troy. * The heads of the wheat are very compact; rather long, with 3 grains in a bar, sometimes 4 are found—the grains unusually large—it is a white bearded wheat, the average height ot tbe field was fully 5$ feet—the straw is very brignt, uncommonly large at the bottom, gradually a nering to the head, where it is very small; this Wheat ripens slowly, but is not a late wheat: the grain has improved each successive year since it was cultivated, showing that it is peculiarly suited to our soil and climate. Mr. Coad’s soil pally a white oak, heretolore ; limed, and the field had from 100 to 200 lbs. of guano to the acre put on it last fall; most of the field was corn ground, the wheat sown after the corn was taken off last year, it was seeded in October, some as late as the 15th of ‘November and cultivated the same as his other wheat, some of it drilled in, (H bushels to the acre,) and some broadcast at to 2 bushels to the acre,- but no difference could be found in the field between that where and the larger quantity was sown. Last year it escaped the rust, though several other varieties, viz: The China, the old Red Chaff, and Etrurian, in its immediate vicinity, were much injured by it, Etrurian less than others. In walking through various portions of the field, we could discern but little difference in any part of it; last-year a picked acre, accurately measured, pro duced 35 bushels; the whole field*averaged 2o to the acre, the season was far more , favorable this year, and we can haruly be mistakeu in saying, that the field will produce an average of forty bu. to the acre, Mr. Coad has about 100 acres in this variety, and’ bis father, 40. We have never witnesssed so glorious a sight, and we doubt if such a field was ever seen in this country before; certainly not in Maryland, the heads contained on an average 75 grains, twice as large as the common grains, some of the heads which were counted, had upwards of 100 grains. We have shown the sam ple we brought home with us, to gentlemen from 'the best wheat districts of our own, and the States of New York, Pennsylvania and Virginia, and with but a single exception, they all pronounced it su perior to any other they had ever seen. Mr. Coad sold'his surplus seed last year, as for $4 per bushel, and has numerous orders on hand, some remaining over from last year. He intends sending all he has to sell to Messrs. Neale & Luckett, of this cily, put up in two bushel bags, who will sell it at $4 per bushel.—Bail. Jmmcan Farmer. Kissisg.— A correspondent of the "Wilmington Herald savs the following rules have been-adopted by the middle-aged married gentlemen, when they assume the privilege of kissing their young and pretty cousin*. They certainly (says the Rich mond Whig) seem to have formed a very accurate conception of the proper manner in which this in nocent luxury should be enjoyed: “Of course you must be taller than the lady you intend to kiss; take her right hand in yours and draw her gently to you, pass your left arm over her right shoulder, diagonally down across her back, under her left arm, press her to your'bosom,atthe same time she will throw her head back, and you have nothing to do but to bend forward and press your lips to hers, and the thing is done; don’t make a noise over it, ns if you were firing off percussion caps, or trying the water cocks of a steam engine, nor pounce down on it like a hungry hawk upon an innocent dove, but genllyTold the damsel in your arms, without deranging the economy of her tippet or ruffle, and by a sweet pressure upon her mouth, revel in the blissfulness of your situation without smacking your lips on it as you would over a roast turkey/ Maxi CAN Curas os the U. States.— lt ap pears the Mexican Government is trumping up large claims against the United States, under- the treaty of peace with that country. The subject is thus alluded to in a Washington letter to the New York Express: I have seen to-day a loietaste of the claimswhich the Government of Mexico is preparing against the Government of the United States, lor not ful filling the terms of the treaty of San Luis Potosi. These claims are coming here in shoals, and those I saw to-day in the hands of single individuals were to the'amount of 11,000. The gentleman who held them was a Mexican; and in his opinion the whole amount of new claims will exceed sixteen millions of dollars. . They grow" out of a violation of the article ol the Treaty; by which the United States was pledged to protect the Mexicans on the frontiers, from Indian depredations and spoliations. They demand remu neration now for houses burnt, cattle driven off, and a general waste of property they say to the amount of millions. The Mexican Minister has already called the attention of our Government to these demands, and will push them home upon this Government with earnestness and determination. Il our Government should be ultimately a great loser from these de mands the wrong .will fall upon Congress, which over and over again had its attention called by the President and Secretary of War to this most ob jectionable feature in the'Treaty. It was one, how ever, which the Mexicans deemed essential to their safety, and without it they declared they would not ratify the treaty. I have just referred to the Treaty, and the Arti cle upon this subject in that Treaty upon which reliance is placed for the recovery of losses by In dian depredations. This provision reads in a man ner which does hot warrant the. construction put upon it by the Mexican authorities, or those who, in Mexico are husbanding up these claims for the purpose of a-future depletion of the Treasury— Says the Treaty, Article 1: - - . “It is solemnly agreed that all such incursions shall be forcibly restrained by the Government of the United States, whenever this may be necessary ; and that whenever that cannot be prevented, they shall be punished by the said government, and sat isfaction lor the same shall be exacted; all in the same way, and with equal diligence and energy, as if the same incursions were meditated or commit ted within its own territory, against its own cm zens.” __ the cheap parasoe depot.
