Hour after hour, last evening, as wo sat over the desk, this cry came up in aloft plaintive voice under our window, which told us of one of the nays of the poor to eke out the means of subsistence in this overburdened, ill.fed and worse-lodged home of misery--of so many without moans, who are constantly crowding into the dirtiest purlieus of this notorious dirty city,-where they arc exposed to the dilly chance of death from some sudden out breakieg epidemic like that desolating the same kind of streets in New Orleans and swallowing up its thousands of victims frail the same class of poverty-stricken, unoom fortably-provided-for human beings, who know not how, or have not the power to flee to the healthy hills and green fields of the country. Here they live—barely live —in boles almost as het as the hot corn, the cry of which rung in our ears from dark until midnight. "Hot corn I hot corn 1 here's your nice hot corn," rose up in a faint child-like voioe, which seemed to have been roused by the sound of our step*. ire were enter ing the Park, while the City Hall clock I told thC • hour When ghosts go forth Upon their midnight rambles. We started, as though a spirit had given us:a rap, for the sound eeemed to dome Out of one of the lire! posts which stand as sontinols over the main entrance, forbidding all Varietal° ma , ter, union the driver takes the trouble to pull.np and tumble out of the way one of the aforesaid poste, which is' not often done ° , -14datme one of thorn, if not always, is Ofteiriwit of its place, string free ingress to the court yard, or livery stable grounds of the City . Hall, which, in consideration of dui growth Of a taw 'abatable &sty brown trees and doubtfut tamed grass patches, we call the "Perk.", Looking over the post we discovered the owner of the hot earn cry, hi the person Of an emulated lithe glil 'about" twelve Y oo ' ll oo , whose AidY , frioek Wee nearly the color of the rusty izon, , and, whose face, hands and feet, naturally white end delicate, were grimmed with dirt until nearly of the same color. There were ON wlkite streaks running from the eoft blue eyes,' that told of the hot scalding tears that wereeoursing their way over that naturally beautiful face. "Some corn, sir," lisped the little suf ferer, as she saw we liadatopped to look at her, hardly daring to speak to one who did not address her:through tones of command, such as "give me - mune corn, you little wolf's whelp," or a name still more oppro brious both to herself andmother. Seeing we had no look of contempt for her, she said piteously, "please buy some corn, E. DANNER.. "No, my dear, we don't wish any ; it is not very healthy in such warm weather as this, and especially so late at eight." "Oh dear, then, what shall I do r "Why, go home.

"Oh, sir, she is a good_ mot*. some times. But lam sure the grocery man at the corner is not a good man or ho would would not sell my mother rum when be knows—for Mr. Peace told him so—that we poor children were starving 011,.1 wish all* men ►ore good men like him, and then my mother would not drink that nasty liquor and beat and 'starve us, 'cause there would ho nobody to sell her any—and then we should have plenty to eat.' Away she ran down the steeet toward that reeking center of filth, poverty and misery, the noted five points of New As we plodded up Broadway, looting to here and there upon the palatial splendors of metropolitan "saloons"—we think that is the word for the fashionable upper class grog shops—we almost involuntarily cried "hot corn," as we saw the hot spirit of that grain, under the various guises of "pure gin"—"old rum"—"pale brandy"—"pure port"—"Heidsick" or "Lager-beer"— poured down the hot throats of men—and ah, yes, of women, too, whose daughters may some day sit at mid,pight upon the cold curbstone crying "hot corn," to gain a penny for the purchase of a drink of tlie fiery dragon they are now inviting to a home in their bosoms, whose cry in after years will be "Give, give, give," and still as unsatisfied as the horne-leteh's daughter. Again, as we passed up that street;still busy and thronged at midnight, as a oogn try village at mid-day intermission of church servioo, ever and anon, from some side, street, came up the cry of "hot corn, hot corn !" and ever as we„liesrd it,, and ever as we shall through all years to come, we thought of that little girl stud her drunken mother, and the "bad man" at . , the Orlar grooery, an that her 0 was t he best, the strongest Maine Law argument which had aver fallen upon our listening Again as we turned the 'armor of Spring at., tho glaro and splendor of a thotuuncd gas lights, and the glittering tat glass of that for the first time lightisi-tip bar room of the Prescott House, so funded by the Press for its magnintence, damled our eyes and:ahnost,,blittdeti. our senses teat degree of imagination that first class Hotels must have such Five Point daniacn-making ap, purtenances as this giittering room,shimer lesaly inviting, open to the street; when that'iratch-arord cry, like thqpibroch'istart ling peal, came up from the near vicinity wailing like stoat virit,oti the midicightair ---"Htit corn, hot oorn—here'syour nice hot cons—smoking, hot—hot--hot corn."

'We shill not stop to inquire whether it waifs Spirit of "the first, third, or sixth sphere," that prompted us as we left our desiotie evening, to go down among the abodee of the poor, with a feeling of cer tainty that we should see or hear something of the lost voice, for that spirit led us on; perhaps it was the spirit of curiosity; no matter, it led, and we followed in the route we had seen that little one had gone be fore—it was our only cuc—we knew no name—had no number, nor knew no one that know her whom we were going to find. Yes, we knew that good Missionary, and she had told us of the good words which ho had spoken, but would he know her from the hundred just like her ? Perhaps. It will cost nothing to inquire. We went ' down Otani street with a light heart ; we turned into Cross street with a step buoyed by hope; wo stood at the corner of Little 'Water street, and looked round inqui ringly of the spirit, and m "which way said, way now ?" The answer was a far-off scream of despair.

Pennsylvania, Ohio and Connecticut are the next largest pro ducers of it. Its origin, as a cultivated plant of this country, is attributed to Dr. Franklin. It is a native of India. Frank lin saw an imported whisk 01 corn in the possession of a lady Philadelphia, and while examining it as a curiosity, found a seed which be planted, and from this small beginning arose this valuable product of industry in the United States. In the like manner England and A merica are indebted to the poet Pope, who finding a green stick in a basket of figs, sent to Minas a present from Turkey, stuck it in his garden at Twickenham, and theme propogated the beautiful weeping willow. Luxurious Kissing Described. Almost any writer CM describe emotions of joy, anger, fear, doubt, or hope ; but there are very few who can give anything like an adequate description of the exqui• site, heavenly. and thrilling joy of warm, affectionate kissing. We copy below, three of the best attempts that we have ever aeon. The first is by a young lady, during her first year of courtship: "Let thy aim twine Around me like a zone of loee, Aid thy fond hp, en oft, l'o mine be passionately ',teased, A• it bee been so nit!' The next to by a lady shortly after her engagement. It will readily be seen Mat the powers of description are far in ad vance of the ones quoted above : "Sweetest love, Plsce thy dear arm bencaih my drooping head. And let me lowly nehtic on thy heart; Then turn Mow soul•lit orbs on tee, and press My parting lips to last the ceetacy Imparted by each long cud lingering kiss." But the beet thing we have seen, is the following, by Alexander Smith. We think, howevever, that when a. man so freely indulges in osculatory nectar as to iota. gine he is "walking on thrones," he should be choked off. Hear hint '•My ■out leaped up benumb thy timid kiss ; What-then' to , mu went groans, Or paiW,t wish:lath 1 Earth was a round of blies; 1 WaratarrtintWalit; Qn thrones."

The Albany .1644ixtrbcicker of aweless. 4th of July, contains': a Mott unique re view of 'the history and present cantlitiOh of the United States. ft iseo clever. gen erally so witty and so truthful, sospright ly and patriotic, that we - conceive into be our duty to place it before our readeini. -- Here goes: - oft is seventy-seven year. since Uncle Sam was born, end whet ap eventful enty-seven years they have been! Seven ty-seven years ago, the United Susie' were a remote circumstance—they now cent pose the first commercial nation lu the world. In three quarters of a century we , have revolutionized the world, built up.wt empire. licked our mother, and fenced-in a continent. In leas time than it took Me thuselah to get out of swaddliug cloths", we have made more canals, tamed more lightning, and harnessed more meats, sad at a greater coat in money than thief:We revenant of the world could Wye paid for. the day he got out of his time. In seimi ty-five years we have not only clisegsd the politics of the earth, but• its wearing lapparel—cotton shirts being as much the offspring of the United States. as ballot boxes and democracy. Since the:4olof July. 1770, the whole world has been to school; and, what is better, has learned more common settee than was taught in the previous four thousand years. The problem of self-government her been solv ed, and its truth is as immortal, as Wash ington or yellow corn. Its adaption to all the great wants of the most aspiring sta tion, has been made most signally, mani fest. Under its harmonious working, a government has grown up in an ordinary life-time, that would have taken anrother system of government a ihnusand years to have brought about. - Arts, in leas tithe than it takes some greenhouse plants to ar rive at maturity, we havebuilt up a nation that has spread itself from Maine to Mex ico. from the Atlantic to the Pacific—a nation that has caught more whales, licked inure Mexicans, planted Inure telegraph posts, and owns more steamboats., than any nation that ever lived, or ever will live. For all which, we again say. think God; and praise Thomas Jefferson." TRUE PIUILOBOPHY.-1 saw a pale ;Atwitter stand bending over the tomb, apd him mars fell fast and often. As he raised hia humid eyes to heaven, he cried.. "My iflother ! oh, my brother!" A sage passed that way and said, "For whom doer thou mourn . , "One," replied he, "whom . 1 did not suf ficiently love while living.; but whose in estimitble worth I now leel I" "What wouhlust thou do, like were re stored to the 1" The mourner replied, ..that he would imam offend him by an unkind word, It he would take every occasion u s/usw his friendship, if he could but come back to hia fond embrace. "Then waste nn time in useless Vier said the sage, •but if thou hest friends.go and cherish the living, remembering that they wall one day be dead also." THE NEORO.—The happiest mart in skis world is said to be a "nigger at a den*" In our opinion this role is too limited. 7— A "nigger" is nut only happy at a dance, but in every other position. A' darliey may be poor but he is never low-spirited. Whatever hit earns hp invests in fun, usd deviltry. Give him a dollar and in ISss than an hour he will lay five' shillings,of it out in yellow neckties or a cradled violin. There is something in theAfricsin that sheds trouble as a duck will waterer— Who ever knew a "collud pusaue to commit suicide? 'rho negro is Womb , given to love and jealousy, but ke has no taste for arsenic. Ile may lose his qll by betting against a roulette, hut he don't find relief hr his despair as white folks do, by resorting to charcoal hones or a 00W bed cord, but by visiting "do fair rex," and participating in the mazy influence of "de occiputal convolutions of der elarinetait," GET IllaamEn.—Every school , boy knows that a kite would not fly oaloos it had a string tying it down. It ie just so ut life. The man who is tied down by hallm.dozen blooming responsibilities, and their mother, will make a higher sad stronger flight than the bachelor who, having nothing to do to keep him steady, is always floundering in the mud.
