LIVING IN THE COUKTKY Tt is a good thing to live in the country.— lo escape from the prison walls of the metrop- olis—the great hrickery we call the *‘city’’— and to live amid blossoms and leaves, in shad- ow and sunshine, in moonlight and starlight, in rain, midst, dew, hoar frost, and d"ought, out in the open campaign, and under the blue dome that is iHiunded by the horizon only. It is a good thing to have a well with drip- ping buckets, a porch with honey buds, and sweet bells, a hive embroidered with nimble bees, ami-dial mossed over, ivy up to the eaves, curtains of dimity, a tumbler of fresh flowers in your bed-room, a rooster on the roof, and a dog upon the pizza. \N hen Mrs. Sparrowgrass and I moyed into the country, with our heads full offresh but- ter, and cool, crisp radishes for tea: with ideas entirely lucid respecting milk, and a looseness of calculation as to the number in family it would lake a good laying In n to sup- ply with fresh eggs every morning: when Mrs. Sparrow grass and \ moved into the coun- try, we found that some preconcerted notions had to be abandoned, and some departures made from the plan we bad laid down in the little back parlor in Avenue V. One of the Ural achievement in the country is tally rising—with tho lark—with the sun —wbile the dew is on the grass, ‘‘under the opening eyelids of the 100011,” and so forth, karly rising ! What can be done at live or six o’clock in town ? What may not be done at those hours in the country ? with the hoc, the rake, the dibble, the spade, and the watering-pot. To plant, prune, drill, trans- plant, graft, train, and sprinkle? Mrs. S. and I agreed to rise early in the country. “Kiohnrd nod bobbin wore two pretty men. . They laid in their led till iheclock rtnick ten; Fp jumped Uichard ami looked at the sky, O. brother bobbin! the sun’s very high ! M Early rising in the country is not an in- stinct; it is a sentiment ami must be cultiva- ted. A friend recommended me tn send to the south side ofLong Island tor some very pro- lific potatoes — the real hippopotamus breed. Down went my man, and what with expen- ses ol horse hire, tavern bill, tdll gate, and breaking u wagon, the hippopotami cost as much apiece as pine-apples. They were fine potatoes, though, with comely features, and large, languishing eyes that promised increase of family without delay. As I work my own garden (fur which 1 hired a landscape garden- er, nt two dollars per day, lo give me instruc- tions) 1 concluded that my first experiment lit early rising should he the planting of the hippopotamuses. [ accordingly rose next day at live, and it rained. The next ami ie mined! it rained for two weeks! YYe had splendid potatoes every day for dinner. “My dear,” said I to Mrs. Sparrowgrass, “where did you get these tine potatoes!” '•Why,” said she innocently, “out of that basket from Dong island ! • The last of the hippopota- muses was before me, peeled and boiled, and mashed and baked, with a nice thin brown crust on the top. I was more successful afterwards. I did get some seed potatoes in the ground. But something was the matter: at the end of the season, L did not gel as many out as I had put in. Mrs. Sparrowgrass, who is a notable house wife, said to me one day, “ Now, my dear, we shall soon have plenty of eggs, fur I have been buying a lot of young chickens.” There they were, each one with as many feathers as a grasshopper, and a chirp not louder. Of course we looked forward with pleasant hopes to Ihe period when the first cackle should announce the milk white egg, warmly deposited in the hay which we had provided bountifully. They grew finely, and one day f ventured to remark that onr hens had remarkably large combs, to which Mrs •’"’ , replied ; “Y es, indeed, she had' observed that; hut it I wanted to have a real treat. I ought to get up early in the morning and hear them cow.” “Crow,” said f faintly, “onr hens crowing? Then the cock that crowed in the morn, to wake the priest all shaven and shorn, wo might as well give up all hopes of having any eggs,” said I, “foras sure as yon five Mrs. S., our hens are all roosters 1” And so they were roosters that grew up and fought with the neighbors’chickens, until there was not a whole pair of eyes on either side of the fence. A dog is a good thing to have in the coun- try, 1 have one which I raised from a pup. He is a good stout fellow, and a heavy barker and feeder. The man of whom L bought him, said he was a thorough-bred, but he begins to have a mongrel look about him. He is a good watch-dog. though: for the moment he sees any suspicious-looking person about the promises, he conns right into the kitchen and gets behind the stove. First wo keep him in the house, and he scratches all night to get out. Then we turned him out, and he scratched all night to get in. Then we tied him up in the back of the garden, and he howled so that onr neighbor shot at him be- fore day break. Finally, we gave him away, and he came hack; and now is just recovering from a fit, in which lie has torn the patch that has been sowed for our spring radishes. A good strong gate is a necessary article for your garden. A good strong, heavy gate with a dislocated hinge, so that it will neither open or shut. Such a one have I. The grounds before my fence are in common, and all tho neighbors’ cows pasture there. I re- marked to Mr. S., as wc stood at tho window in a June sunset, how placid and picturesque the cattle looked as they strolled about crop- ping green herbage. Next morning I found the innocent creatures m my garden. They had not left a green tiling in it. The corn in the milk, the beans on the polls, the young cabbage and tho tender lettuce, even the thriving shouts on my young fruit trees had vanished. And there they wore looking qui- etly on the ruin they had made. Onr watch dog, too, was for gathering with them. It was too much, so I got c large stick and drove them all out, except a young heifer, whom I chased all over the flower-beds, breaking down my trellises, my woodbines and sweet- briers, my roses and petunias, until I corner- ed her in the hot-bed. I had to call for as- sistance to extricate her from the sashes and her owner has sued me for damages.

Yesterday we called at the United States Hotel to see tho “Wild Woman of YYachitn Mountains." Mr. J. \V. C. Norlhcott, her captor, introduced us into the room where she was a prisoner. We saw a till, grace- fully formed, young white girl, scantily but neatly clot bed, standing with a stout rope , about Iter waist and attached to a bed post. The first impression was similar to that of being in the presence of a fierce maniac. She stood at the foot of the bed, partially hiding behind it and rocking slowly but with nerv- ous uneasiness, from otic foot to another, and staring fixedly upon ns. with great bright unwinking eyes, so widely opened that a ting of white surrounded the pupil, which with the wild and intense glare of the orb, gave it a strange and frightful expression. Beneath the eyes were deep circles, showing long continued and excessive excitement or exertion, mental or physical. Her hair was long and thick, hanging in heavy malted masses and wiry tangles about her face, neck ami shoulders, and of a dark brown color. Her complexion was fair, even delicate, and her features decidedly handsome. Her mouth small and finely formed; the lips thin and red. but tightly compressed, ami her teeth even and white. But there was not, that we could discover, any trace of humot in her face, and we were informed by her captor that he had never Seen her smile. There is not a line in her face to indicate any human passion, the only organ of expres- sion being her eye, and that does not seem to seek or even to have known human sympa- thy. The woman employed by Mr. Norlh- eott to be the attendant of his “pet,” as he calls her, says that she has seen the girl look- ed pleased, even seem to be amused, 'but her lips never curled in a smile, and nothing like a laugh ever found utterance. We need baldly say that she does not talk. Tile only sound she makes with her month is a kind of mumbling, moaning, or grumb- ling, with which, when hungry or thirsty, she expresses a desire to eat or drink. Bin sometimes, her attendant says, she looks with the most animated curiosity at her (ihe attendant) and Mr. NortheoU when they are talking in her presence, and seems to wonder how they make such noises with their mouths but they have not succeeded in inducing her to imitate them. Her nose is handsome and bet profile well cut and striking: but the only indication of diameter in it is a kind.of un- tamed audacity. There is nothing like tim- idity in her looks, only the discomposure mingled with d> fiance which gleams in the eye of ihe panther. The appearance of a maniac, which, to our glance, she Wore when wo entered her apartment, gradually passed away, and there was a sofler expression, and something like a gentle glow of intelligence in her still vivid eye. Becoming more composed, she sat down, and her nurse, at our request, brushed back the tangles of her hair, showing her cheeks and forehead. These were fair. The cheek was thin, but its outlines quite woman- ly, and her brow and temples show intellec- tuality of no mean or common order. What- ever see is. or may have been, slie was by iniluic gifted with capacities lot higher in- telligence. STottv or unit captiiik. _ The story of her capture, related by Mr. NortheoU, is quite remarkable. in the spting of Itfoo, Mr. N.. with a party of eight golel hunters, was sojourning in the Wacluta .Mountains, on a branch ol the False Waehua Uiver, camped near an extensive and almost iinpeiietiablc thicket. They were gold seek- ers, having been attracted thither by a false alarm that there was gold in that region, which onr renders will remember had much newspaper circulation and as nearly as could be calculated, their camp was tlnee honied miles distant from the frontier settlements of Texas, and in what is lumilarly called the Camunche country. One night in March, it was his turn lo watch, and there as blight, unclouded moonlight, in the middle of the night lie- saw a figure approaching that seemed to him to lie a Caunuiche, and lie lay close and at full length on the ground. The figure ap- proached, walking, briskly, and passing within twenty yields of him, entered the thicket, and he saw by the moonlight that it was no Indian, but a young while woman, dressed in a robe of skins. He was amazed beyond conception, and told his companions of his discovery, but they hooted at the idea; and contended that he had seen a Camanche, and that they would no longer be safe in that locality, and so next day they packed their mules and hurried oil' feu Texas in spile of entreaties. They were all green in the lore ut backwoodsmen, but he bail spent twenty years on the frontiers, and knew what he was about. So strong an impression did this incident make on his mind, that Into this winter he enlisted half a dozen hardy fellows to accompany him and set forth on a trip to the Waehua Mountains, on a hunt after the wild woman. So many difficulties were en- countered and the weather was so severe, that all of his companions hut one backed out. He pressed forward, however, and early in March reached the encampment where he had seen the woman enter the thicket. The first thing in order was lo search the thicket, and they were not long in finding a kind of den, a little cave, or rattier a long and narrow aperture among the rocks, which he was convinced must be lier hiding place. Willi this conviction, he wailed and watched ' lor her two days and nights, when she came forth. He says that he had been afraid to enter the den, and that now his first care was : to stop up the mouth ofit, and wait for her to conic hack. After a few hours she return- ed, and took ahum on observing that her 1 door in the rocks was closed against her. He 1 had two dogs, which he set upon her, and 1 after running about one hundred and fifty i yards she turned about, as if confused in her ! (right, and lied towards the cave. He ran to 1 meet her with a lasso in his hand, and us she ' approached, worried by the dogs, lie threw it over her neck and called oil'the dogs, and she giving a spring, jerked him to the ground, I and at the second leap threw herself, the I noose having by that time fastened about I her throat and choked her. He then lied her, | during which operation she uttered such lior- i rid screams that the hair stood up un j,j s head uiul lie had the most singular and awful ! feelings he ever experienced. After securin'' ! the girl, he entered her den, and found there I large quantities of nuts and berries and roots, ( such as could be gathered and digged in that t vicinity. The principal fruit was a large kind of red haws, which were thereabout veiy abundant, and she hud u kind of nest to sleep in, while everything indicated her utter soli- i lude. The garment which she wore was of skins i qneerly lied together with hits oflealher, and i also with a kind of grass.

It was bis opinion that she bail found an animal dead, or that she might have been attacked by and have muster- ed some beast. But there is air of improbability about this that the strange and almost terri- ble realtity of the woman herself does not quite dispel; but we have not room here and time now to argue the point. The garments were so strong says Mr. N., that they pro- tected the female from the teeth of his dogs. For live days after her capture his pet re- fused to taste food, but then partook of red haws. She was taken the three hundred miles intervening between her den and the nearest civilized settlements in Grayson comi- ty Texas, with a rope about her waist, the ends of which were in the hands of himself and comrade, while the dogs followed after.— As soon as he could procure it, lie had a hack so fixed as to tuakc of the body a kind of cage, in which he confined hyp and oonveyed her safely, until lie finally got heron board a steamboat. She arrived on board the steam- er Hickman. For a time she rejected ail pre- pared food, but now she will eat almost any- thiuk olfeu'd that is not very salt or very sweet. Mr. Northcott says his great object now is to civilize her. to learn her to Talk, and to h-.ar her stury, for ho thinks he is sure that she has talked at some day, and that she has a dim notion of having long ago belli witli folks similar to those she now finds hersell with, lie is impressed from observ- ing her that this is the fact, and thinks that the presence of civilized faces, and being in houses, etc., etc., has caused dormant mem- ories to faintly revive. He disavows any intention to make a spec- ulation out of her, and says that he will only lake money from visitors’that he may use it for her benefit. He shrinks from no exami- nation on tlie subject, and has called several physicians to look at his strange pet. If lias is a hoax, and it is so wonderful that we arc not able to give it full credit, the girl (whose age is, perhaps, twenty two or twenty three years), looks like the character she is made to personate so consummately that the like was never before heard of, or dreamid¦ n e Would have it thoroughly understood that this is no exaggerated pull of n showman, but a plain and sober narrative of that which we saw, and which was in the utmost apparent guild failh relatid to ua, and which seems to be a veritable realization of Romance. Death ix Childhood.— How true and ex- quisitely beautiful is tbei following impress- ive passage, which is taken from an article in the Dublin University Magazine: "To me, few tilings appear so' beautiful as a very young child inks shroud. The little innocent face looks so sublimely simple and confiding amongst the cold terrors of death. CTimeless and fearless, that little mortal has passed alone under the shadow, and explored the mystery of disolulion. There is death in its sublimest and purest image: no haired, no hypocrisy, no suspicion, no care for the mor- row ever darkened that little face; death has come lovingly upon it; there is nothing cruel of harsh in Us victory The yearnings 'of love, indeed cannot be stilled: for the prattle, and smile, all the little World of thoughts that are so delightful, are gone forever. Awe, too. will overcast us in its presence, for we are looking on death - but we do noc fear for the lonely voyager: for the child has gone, sim- ple and trusting into the presence of its all- wise Father: ami of such, we know, is the kingdom of heaven.” —— ¦ ¦¦ -•- Power op tub Moon at Xigtit.—Air, Garne, in his Utters from the Fast, has ob- served. Die effect of the moonlight on the eves in this country (Egypt) is singularly injurious, ihe natives tell yon, as 1 afterwards found they did in Arabia, to always cover your eyis whin you sleep in the open air. It is railier stiange that the passage in the I’salms ¦" the sun shall not smite thee by day - nor tlie moon by night”—should have been tints illustrated, as the allusion seems to direct. The moon here really strikes and effects the sight, when you sleep exposed to it, much more than trie sun, a fact of which 1 had a very unpleasant proof one night, and took care to guard against afterwards.—lndeed, the sight of a person who should sleep with his lace exposed at night, would soon be im- paired or utterly destroyed. Song Birds. — A gentleman residing at present in lowa .says the National Intelli- gencer, but who was "educated as a forester in Germany,” writes to the Commissioner of Patents, desiring him to recommend to the Committees on Agriculture in the Senate and House of Representatives the introduction of European song birds, citing the “skylark, the little robin redbr east, the blackcap,” and so on, as the most necessary for enlivening the forest solitudes of the great West, and rendering essential service to agriculture by consuming innumerable insects which have heretofore provide so destructive to our crops.

Crawford, editor of the Protestant American, published at Aberdeen. Miss., is an [ Irishman by birth, an accomplished scholar, . and a fearless and eloquent writer. lie took strong ground in favor of the American parly, and, having been violently denounced for this by the editor of the Florence, Alabama, Gazette, he made a powerful and overwhelm- ing response, from which we take these para- graphs. Many foreign-barn citizens, and not a few natives, might read them with profit and edification: Yon charge against us that wo conduct a Know-Nothing journal. Did it ever strike you, sir, as possible, that the principles we ¦ advocate in tins paper, and which you fear will arouse the indignation of your readers, are the principles we held many years before the Know Nothings had an existence; that we have not gone to them, but that they have come to us; that from the circumstances of our foreign birth we knew the force and ne- cessity of one great vital doctrine of the American party long before circumstances forced it upon their attention so strongly that they cannot avoid it. They must meet it and crush it, or he crushed by it. It would be of considerable advantage to you. sir, if relinquishing your present Qiiixot- tio battle against the American party, you would go and see for yourself what Popery is where she has the power. You are now “running a muck” with all the fury of an exasperated Thug against Know-Nothing newspapers—suppose you wipe your dripping brow and let your panting system cool, and get a little information on the subject ofPope- ry with power in her hands. It will teach you charily for the opinions of those you op- pose. It will give you time to practice your native politeness; and you may cease to "call us serf, slave, sycophant, because wc choose to set our laces “like a iliut,” against a sys- tem which enslaves not the bodies, but worse, infinitely'worse—tlie souls and minds, the hopes, the fears of its votaries. But let us look at the charge. What is the crime? I, an Irish Protestant, and found acting with a party whose leading object is to abolish liie temporal power of Popery am therefore crusading against my countrymen ! .Shade of common sense, what ails the man? Did you expect mo, sir, to aid, either with my pen or voice, a system which has hunted my fathers to tire dungeon and the gibbet; which gave them the rack for argument: which placed on their legs the iron boot, and drove in wedge after wedge, till Hie marrow overran this Popish argument, (!) which, huddling women and caught them, as they rushed madly out, on the heads of their iron pikes? With what party, pray, should I be? •lust where I am, sir, with the American party because it has raised its mighty arm, and -sworn by Him who livetli forever and ever, that such schemes shall never be enacted on American soil. What is my crime? That at a time when half a million of Roman Catholics—tlie blind tools of designing foreign princes—are pour- ing annually upon our shores, I an Irish Pro- testant, when the press is placed at my dis- posal, should cry. “There is danger—for God’s sake protect yourself, while you can. 1 knew them where they burned Bibles, mur- dered heretics, they set the law of the land at defiance, and would obey no law but the law of the Church.” This is my only crime! And for this 1 am called flare, sycophant and abject. And by whom? An American Protestant! A man whose ancestors perilled all for "free- dom to worship God.” How long will that freedom last when Popery becomes numeri- cally supreme? Not an hour. How often would he, in Florence, visit tlie Methodist Chapel, if the Pope could prevent it, (and he is only waiting numerical strength.) Ah, sir, there would he no chapel there —the thun- ders of tlie Vatican would raise it “from tur- ret to foundation stone” just as soon as it had subjects enough to carry out its bcuests.— II heeling Tunes.

The Sag Nichts would prefer the election of a sectional candidate to any conservative American. They have lived on sectional ag- itation, and are determined to make that the issue in the coining contest. The Richmond Enquirer and the Washington Union have al- ready' foreshadowed this course of policy. If there is any sincerity in their professions of love for the Union, it can only be proven by adopting the suggestion i.f the Whig, for a h ve for the Union will certainly demand of them a sacrifice of their partisan feelings, and as the Washington Union has already endorsed Mr. Donelson’s Democracy they had better hoist the name of Fillmore and Done],son and thus effectually? ‘crush out” fanaticism anil sectionalism, and attest their devotion to the Union.—[ American Organ. ¦— ¦¦ ¦• .

poetic Scraps

FlcasJires.

Bat pleasures nro like poppies spread;You seize the flower—but is shed ;

Or like the snow-falls in the river—A moment white—then lost foic\cr;Or like the boreal’s race,

Ihat flitrrcyon can point their place;

Or like the llaii.bow s lovely form,Kvanisbing amid the storm. [lJruxfl.

Consoling.

You’ll bo forgo;ton as old debts,l*.y persons who are used to borrow;

Forgotten, ns the sun that sots,When shines a new one on tho morrow;

like tlw luscious poach,That blessed the school-boy lust September;

Forgotten, like u maiden speech.Which all men praise, hut none remember.

Modesty.

No charm a lovely maiden wears,That winnoth half the grace,

As modesty's rich rail that shadesHer sweet and blushing face.

Gently a soft yot magic powerO’er beauty it doth throw

A nobler worth which U may veil,A holier light bestow.

“IXcvcr Kiss and Tell.”

1 kissed a iniid tho other night;Hut who she was f may not tell ;

Her eyes were as the diamonds bright,And soft as those of Isabel—-

15ut I never kiss and tell.

Her breast a bank of virgin snow,Whereon no thought of sin should dwell—

Her voice was very sweet and low,And like the voice of Isubtd—

Lul I never kiss and tell.

Her lips as cherries, sweet and red,Ami she was shy as a gazelle ;

Fire kissed me back—and then hho lied,Just like our charming Isabel—

Hut 1 never kiss and toll.

Homicts and SKlrt*.

Little head and little bonnet!Little pale with nothing on it!(One might say “with nothing in it,”Hut that you charm me every minute; —)

Little lady, now l knowM by maidens let their ringlets grow :For otherwise—as bonnets go—-llieir heads would freeze, and “that is so !”

Little waist and monstrous flounces!How the silk sea waves and bounces !How the hooping billows quiverLike a lovely rustling river !

tdi wondrous water-silken sea!M hat whalebones in your depths must be !

hat lots of gold,—all wastfuliySquandered on you—bright silken sou !

A Hollar or Two.

W ith cautious step as we tread our way throughThis intricate world, us other folks do,May wo still on our journey bo able to viewfJhe benevolent face of a dollar or two—

For an excellent thing is a dollar or two—

Through country and town.Wo may pass up and down,

No passport's so good as a dollar or two.

Would you read yourself out of a bachelor cr*w,And the hand of a female divinely sue f

You must always ho ready the handsome to do,Although it should cost you a dollar or two.

Love’s arrows are lipped with a dollar or two,And affection is gained by a dollar or two,

The best aid you cun meet,In advancing your suit.

Is the eloquent chink of a dollar or two.

Mould you wish your existence with faith to imbueAnd enroll in the rank of tho sanctified few fYou must put your name down for a dollar or two.

' ¦ The gospel is preached for dollar or two,And salvation is reached for a dollar or two.

Y’ou may sin s*>:do at times,Hut tho worst of all crimes

Is to find yourself shcit of a dollar or two.

Weather Proverbs.

A rainbow in the morning,Gives tho shepherd warning.

A rainbow at nightIs the shepherd’s delight.

Kvening red. and next morning'gray,Are certain signs of a beautiful day.

When the glow-worm lights her lump,The air is always damp.

Jf ih cock goes crowing to bed,He'll certainly riso with a watery bead.When you see gossamer flying,He ye sure tho air is drying.

When black snails cross your path,Black clouds much moisture bath.

When tho peacock loudly bawls,Foou wc’H have both ruin and squalls.

When the ducks am diving through tho burn,That night tho weather takes u turn.

Iftho moon shows like a silver shield,Be not afraid to reap your field.But if.she rises haloed round,Foon wo II troud on deluged ground.

When rooks fly sporting high in tho air,it shows that windy storms are near.

<£ouutrn Cifc.LIVING IN THE COUKTKY

Tt is a good thing to live in the country.—lo escape from the prison walls of the metrop-

olis—the great hrickery we call the *‘city’’—and to live amid blossoms and leaves, in shad-ow and sunshine, in moonlight and starlight,in rain, midst, dew, hoar frost, and d"ought,out in the open campaign, and under the bluedome that is iHiunded by the horizon only.It is a good thing to have a well with drip-ping buckets, a porch with honey buds, andsweet bells, a hive embroidered with nimblebees, ami-dial mossed over, ivy up to theeaves, curtains of dimity, a tumbler of freshflowers in your bed-room, a rooster on theroof, and a dog upon the pizza.

\N hen Mrs. Sparrowgrass and Imoyed intothe country, with our heads fulloffresh but-ter, and cool, crisp radishes for tea: withideas entirely lucid respecting milk, and alooseness ofcalculation as to the number infamily it would lake a good laying In n to sup-ply with fresh eggs every morning: whenMrs. Sparrow grass and \ moved into the coun-try, we found that some preconcerted notionshad to be abandoned, and some departuresmade from the plan we bad laid down in thelittle back parlor in Avenue V.

One of the Ural achievement in the countryis tally rising—with tho lark—with the sun—wbile the dew is on the grass, ‘‘under theopening eyelids of the 100011,” and so forth,karly rising ! What can be done at live orsix o’clock in town ? What may not be doneat those hours in the country ? with thehoc, the rake, the dibble, the spade, and thewatering-pot. To plant, prune, drill, trans-plant, graft, train, and sprinkle? Mrs. S.and I agreed to rise early in the country.

“Kiohnrd nod bobbin wore two pretty men.. They laid in their led till iheclock rtnick ten;

Fp jumped Uichard ami looked at the sky,O. brother bobbin! the sun’s very high ! M

Early rising in the country is not an in-stinct; it is a sentiment ami must be cultiva-ted.

A friend recommended me tn send to thesouth side ofLong Island tor some very pro-lific potatoes —the real hippopotamus breed.Down went my man, and what with expen-ses ol horse hire, tavern bill, tdll gate, andbreaking u wagon, the hippopotami cost asmuch apiece as pine-apples. They were finepotatoes, though, with comely features, andlarge, languishing eyes that promised increaseof family without delay. As I work my owngarden (fur which 1 hired a landscape garden-er, nt two dollars per day, lo give me instruc-tions) 1 concluded that my first experimentlit early rising should he the planting of thehippopotamuses. [ accordingly rose nextday at live, and it rained. The next ami iemined! it rained for two weeks! YYe hadsplendid potatoes every day for dinner. “Mydear,” said I to Mrs. Sparrowgrass, “wheredid you get these tine potatoes!” '•Why,”said she innocently, “out ofthat basket fromDong island ! • The last of the hippopota-muses was before me, peeled and boiled, andmashed and baked, with a nice thin browncrust on the top.

I was more successful afterwards. I didget some seed potatoes in the ground. Butsomething was the matter: at the end of theseason, L did not gel as many out as I hadput in.

Mrs. Sparrowgrass, who is a notable housewife, said to me one day, “ Now, my dear,we shall soon have plenty of eggs, fur Ihave been buying a lot of young chickens.”There they were, each one with as manyfeathers as a grasshopper, and a chirp notlouder. Of course we looked forward withpleasant hopes to Ihe period when the firstcackle should announce the milk white egg,warmly deposited in the hay which we hadprovided bountifully. They grew finely, andone day f ventured to remark that onr henshad remarkably large combs, to which Mrs•’"’

, replied ; “Yes, indeed, she had' observedthat; hut it I wanted to have a real treat. Iought to get up early in the morning and hearthem cow.” “Crow,” said f faintly, “onrhens crowing? Then the cock that crowedin the morn, to wake the priest all shaven andshorn, wo might as well give up all hopes ofhaving any eggs,” said I, “foras sure as yonfive Mrs. S., our hens are all roosters 1” Andso they were roosters that grew up and foughtwith the neighbors’chickens, until there wasnot a whole pair of eyes on either side of thefence.

A dog is a good thing to have in the coun-try, 1 have one which I raised from a pup.He is a good stout fellow, and a heavy barkerand feeder. The man ofwhom L bought him,said he was a thorough-bred, but he begins tohave a mongrel look about him. He is agood watch-dog. though: for the moment hesees any suspicious-looking person about thepromises, he conns right into the kitchen andgets behind the stove. First wo keep him inthe house, and he scratches all night to getout. Then we turned him out, and hescratched all night to get in. Then we tiedhim up in the back of the garden, and hehowled so that onr neighbor shot at him be-fore day break. Finally, we gave him away,and he came hack; and now is just recoveringfrom a fit, in which lie has torn the patch thathas been sowed for our spring radishes.

A good strong gate is a necessary articlefor your garden. A good strong, heavy gatewith a dislocated hinge, so that it will neitheropen or shut. Such a one have I. Thegrounds before my fence are in common, andall tho neighbors’ cows pasture there. I re-marked to Mr. S., as wc stood at tho windowin a June sunset, how placid and picturesquethe cattle looked as they strolled about crop-ping green herbage. Next morning I foundthe innocent creatures m my garden. Theyhad not left a green tiling in it. The corn inthe milk, the beans on the polls, the youngcabbage and tho tender lettuce, even thethriving shouts on my young fruit trees hadvanished. And there they wore looking qui-etly on the ruin they had made. Onr watchdog, too, was for gathering with them. Itwastoo much, so I got c large stick and drovethem all out, except a young heifer, whom Ichased all over the flower-beds, breakingdown my trellises, my woodbines and sweet-briers, my roses and petunias, until I corner-ed her in the hot-bed. I had to call for as-sistance to extricate her from the sashes andher owner has sued me for damages. I be-lieve I shall never move into town.—Sparrow-grass papers.

A WILO WOMAN.Her Slranqe Appearance-The Story oj Her

Capture—ltomancc Realiz'd.Yesterday we called at the United States

Hotel to see tho “Wild Woman of YYachitnMountains." Mr. J. \V. C. Norlhcott, hercaptor, introduced us into the room whereshe was a prisoner. We saw a till, grace-fully formed, young white girl, scantily butneatly clot bed, standing with a stout rope

, about Iter waist and attached to a bed post.The first impression was similar to that ofbeing in the presence of a fierce maniac. Shestood at the foot of the bed, partially hidingbehind it and rocking slowly but with nerv-ous uneasiness, from otic foot to another, andstaring fixedly upon ns. with great brightunwinking eyes, so widely opened that ating of white surrounded the pupil, whichwith the wild and intense glare of the orb,gave it a strange and frightful expression.Beneath the eyes were deep circles, showinglong continued and excessive excitement orexertion, mental or physical. Her hair waslong and thick, hanging in heavy maltedmasses and wiry tangles about her face, neckami shoulders, and ofa dark brown color.

Her complexion was fair, even delicate,and her features decidedly handsome. Hermouth small and finely formed; the lips thinand red. but tightly compressed, ami herteeth even and white. But there was not,that we could discover, any trace of humotin her face, and we were informed by hercaptor that he had never Seen her smile.

There is not a line in her face to indicateany human passion, the only organ of expres-sion being her eye, and that does not seem toseek or even to have known human sympa-thy. The woman employed by Mr. Norlh-eott to be the attendant of his “pet,” as hecalls her, says that she has seen the girl look-ed pleased, even seem to be amused, 'but herlips never curled in a smile, and nothing likea laugh ever found utterance. We needbaldly say that she does not talk.

Tile only sound she makes with her monthis a kind of mumbling, moaning, or grumb-ling, with which, when hungry or thirsty,she expresses a desire to eat or drink. Binsometimes, her attendant says, she lookswith the most animated curiosity at her (iheattendant) and Mr. NortheoU when they aretalking in her presence, and seems to wonderhow they make such noises with their mouthsbut they have not succeeded in inducing herto imitate them. Her nose is handsome andbet profile well cut and striking: but the onlyindication of diameter in it is a kind.of un-tamed audacity. There is nothing like tim-idity in her looks, only the discomposuremingled with d> fiance which gleams in theeye ofihe panther.

The appearance of a maniac, which, toour glance, she Wore when wo entered herapartment, gradually passed away, and therewas a sofler expression, and something likea gentle glow of intelligence in her still vivideye. Becoming more composed, she satdown, and her nurse, at our request, brushedback the tangles of her hair, showing hercheeks and forehead. These were fair. Thecheek was thin, but its outlines quite woman-ly, and her brow and temples show intellec-tuality of no mean or common order. What-ever see is. or may have been, slie was byiniluic gifted with capacities lot higher in-telligence.

STottv or unit captiiik.

_

The story of her capture, related by Mr.NortheoU, is quite remarkable. in thespting of Itfoo, Mr. N.. with a party of eightgolel hunters, was sojourning in the Wacluta.Mountains, on a branch ol the False WaehuaUiver, camped near an extensive and almostiinpeiietiablc thicket. They were gold seek-ers, having been attracted thither by a falsealarm that there was gold in that region,which onr renders will remember had muchnewspaper circulation and as nearly as couldbe calculated, their camp was tlnee honiedmiles distant from the frontier settlements ofTexas, and in what is lumilarly called theCamunche country.

One night in March, it was his turn lowatch, and there as blight, uncloudedmoonlight, in the middle of the night lie-saw a figure approaching that seemed to himto lie a Caunuiche, and lie lay close and atfull length on the ground. The figure ap-proached, walking, briskly, and passingwithin twenty yields of him, entered thethicket, and he saw by the moonlight that itwas no Indian, but a young while woman,dressed in a robe of skins. He was amazedbeyond conception, and told his companionsof his discovery, but they hooted at the idea;and contended that he had seen a Camanche,and that they would no longer be safe in thatlocality, and so next day they packed theirmules and hurried oil' feu Texas in spile ofentreaties. They were all green in the loreut backwoodsmen, but he bail spent twentyyears on the frontiers, and knew what hewas about. So strong an impression did thisincident make on his mind, that Into thiswinter he enlisted half a dozen hardy fellowsto accompany him and set forth on a trip tothe Waehua Mountains, on a hunt after thewild woman. So many difficulties were en-countered and the weather was so severe, thatall of his companions hut one backed out.He pressed forward, however, and early inMarch reached the encampment where he hadseen the woman enter the thicket.

The first thing in order was lo search thethicket, and they were not long in finding akind ofden, a little cave, or rattier a long andnarrow aperture among the rocks, which hewas convinced must be lier hiding place.Willi this conviction, he wailed and watched 'lor her two days and nights, when she cameforth. He says that he had been afraid toenter the den, and that now his first care was :to stop up the mouth ofit, and wait for herto conic hack. After a few hours she return-ed, and took ahum on observing that her 1door in the rocks was closed against her. He 1had two dogs, which he set upon her, and 1after running about one hundred and fifty iyards she turned about, as if confused in her !(right, and lied towards the cave. He ran to 1meet her with a lasso in his hand, and us she 'approached, worried by the dogs, lie threw itover her neck and called oil'the dogs, and shegiving a spring, jerked him to the ground, Iand at the second leap threw herself, the Inoose having by that time fastened about Iher throat and choked her. He then lied her, |during which operation she uttered such lior- irid screams that the hair stood up un j,jshead uiul lie had the most singular and awful !feelings he ever experienced. After securin'' !the girl, he entered her den, and found there Ilarge quantities ofnuts and berries and roots, (such as could be gathered and digged in that tvicinity. The principal fruit was a largekind of red haws, which were thereabout veiyabundant, and she hud u kind ofnest to sleepin, while everything indicated her utter soli- ilude.

The garment which she wore was of skins iqneerly lied together with hits oflealher, and ialso with a kind of grass. The skins were Ithose of a large animal, neither hear or India- i10, Mr. yrortheult says, and the huuters could

not till exactly from what manner of beastthey were taken. It was bis opinion thatshe bail found an animal dead, or that shemight have been attacked by and have muster-ed some beast. But there is air of improbabilityabout this that the strange and almost terri-ble realtity of the woman herself does notquite dispel; but we have not room here andtime now to argue the point. The garmentswere so strong says Mr. N., that they pro-tected the female from the teeth of his dogs.

For live days after her capture his pet re-fused to taste food, but then partook of redhaws. She was taken the three hundredmiles intervening between her den and thenearest civilized settlements in Grayson comi-ty Texas, with a rope about her waist, theends of which were in the hands of himselfand comrade, while the dogs followed after.—As soon as he could procure it, lie had a hackso fixed as to tuakc of the body a kind ofcage, in which he confined hyp and oonveyedher safely, until lie finally got heron boarda steamboat. She arrived on board the steam-er Hickman. For a time she rejected ail pre-pared food, but now she will eat almost any-thiuk olfeu'd that is not very salt or verysweet. Mr. Northcott says his great objectnow is to civilize her. to learn her to Talk,and to h-.ar her stury, for ho thinks he issure that she has talked at some day, andthat she has a dim notion of having long agobelli witli folks similar to those she now findshersell with, lie is impressed from observ-ing her that this is the fact, and thinks thatthe presence of civilized faces, and being inhouses, etc., etc., has caused dormant mem-ories to faintly revive.

He disavows any intention to make a spec-ulation out of her, and says that he will onlylake money from visitors’that he may use itfor her benefit. He shrinks from no exami-nation on tlie subject, and has called severalphysicians to look at his strange pet. Iflias is a hoax, and it is so wonderful that wearc not able to give it full credit, the girl(whose age is, perhaps, twenty two or twentythree years), looks like the character she ismade to personate so consummately that thelike was never before heard of, or dreamid¦n e Would have itthoroughly understood thatthis is no exaggerated pull ofn showman, buta plain and sober narrative of that which wesaw, and which was in the utmost apparentguild failh relatid to ua, and which seems tobe a veritable realization ofRomance.

Death ix Childhood.— How true and ex-quisitely beautiful is tbei following impress-ive passage, which is taken from an articlein the Dublin University Magazine: "To me,few tilings appear so' beautiful as a veryyoung child inks shroud. The little innocentface looks so sublimely simple and confidingamongst the cold terrors ofdeath. CTimelessand fearless, that little mortal has passedalone under the shadow, and explored themystery of disolulion. There is death in itssublimest and purest image: no haired, nohypocrisy, no suspicion, no care for the mor-row ever darkened that little face; death hascome lovingly upon it; there is nothing cruelofharsh in Us victory The yearnings 'of love,indeed cannot be stilled: for the prattle, andsmile, all the little World of thoughts that areso delightful, are gone forever. Awe, too.will overcast us in its presence, for we arelooking on death - but we do noc fear for thelonely voyager: for the child has gone, sim-ple and trusting into the presence of its all-wise Father: ami of such, we know, is thekingdom of heaven.”

Power op tub Moon at Xigtit.—Air,Garne, in his Utters from the Fast, has ob-served.

Die effect of the moonlight on the eves inthis country (Egypt) is singularly injurious,ihe natives tell yon, as 1 afterwards found

they did in Arabia, to always cover youreyis whin you sleep in the open air. It israilier stiange that the passage in the I’salms

¦" the sun shall not smite thee by day - nortlie moon by night”—should have been tintsillustrated, as the allusion seems to direct.The moon here really strikes and effects thesight, when you sleep exposed to it, muchmore than trie sun, a fact of which 1 had avery unpleasant proof one night, and tookcare to guard against afterwards.—lndeed,the sight of a person who should sleep withhis lace exposed at night, would soon be im-paired or utterly destroyed.

Song Birds. —A gentleman residing atpresent in lowa .says the National Intelli-gencer, but who was "educated as a foresterin Germany,” writes to the Commissioner ofPatents, desiring him to recommend to theCommittees on Agriculture in the Senate andHouse of Representatives the introduction ofEuropean song birds, citing the “skylark,the little robin redbr east, the blackcap,” andso on, as the most necessary for enliveningthe forest solitudes of the great West, andrendering essential service to agriculture byconsuming innumerable insects which haveheretofore provide so destructive to our crops.

Teres and Russians in Paws.—A Pariscorrespondent of a Boston paper says: TheTurks were always fond ofParis and the Par-isians, and ofcourse revere the Emperor. Tosee, by the way, the jolly train some of themlead with the women in the capital, one wouldhardly believe their nation straightened formoney; and the Russians: too are by nomeans hindmost in enjoying whatever theremay be agreeable, voluptuous and expensivein Ibis wicked, city, which some day or ano-ther. like Sodom and Gomorrah, will be pun-ished by a pleasant shower of sulphur andbrimstone.

Victims of tub Pacifo. —The will of thelate Jabez Barber, of Chicago 111., who, withbis wife and daughter, was on board the ill-faled steamer Pacific, has been opened forprobate. His estate is valued at $250,000,and his will makes bequests of SI,OOO to theAmerican and Foreign Missionary Society, iSI,OOO to the American Horne MissionarySociety, SI,OOO to the American Bible Socie-ty, and 53.000 to the Third PresbyterianChurch of Chicago.

political.Plain TinlJi by an Irishman.Mr. J. Crawford, editor of the Protestant

American, published at Aberdeen. Miss., is an[ Irishman by birth, an accomplished scholar,

. and a fearless and eloquent writer. lie tookstrong ground in favor of the American parly,and, having been violently denounced for thisby the editor of the Florence, Alabama,Gazette, he made a powerful and overwhelm-ing response, from which we take these para-graphs. Many foreign-barn citizens, and nota few natives, might read them with profitand edification:

Yon charge against us that wo conduct aKnow-Nothing journal. Did it ever strikeyou, sir, as possible, that the principles we¦ advocate in tins paper, and which you fearwill arouse the indignation of your readers,are the principles we held many years beforethe Know Nothings had an existence; thatwe have not gone to them, but that they havecome to us; that from the circumstances ofour foreign birth we knew the force and ne-cessity of one great vital doctrine of theAmerican party long before circumstancesforced it upon their attention so strongly thatthey cannot avoid it. They must meet it andcrush it, or he crushed by it.

It would be of considerable advantage toyou. sir, if relinquishing your present Qiiixot-tio battle against the American party, youwould go and see for yourself what Popery iswhere she has the power. You are now“running a muck” with all the fury of anexasperated Thug against Know-Nothingnewspapers—suppose you wipe your drippingbrow and let your panting system cool, andget a little information on the subject ofPope-ry with power in her hands. It will teachyou charily for the opinions of those you op-pose. It will give you time to practice yournative politeness; and you may cease to "callus serf, slave, sycophant, because wc chooseto set our laces “like a iliut,” against a sys-tem which enslaves not the bodies, but worse,infinitely'worse—tlie souls and minds, thehopes, the fears ofits votaries.

But let us look at the charge. What is thecrime? I, an Irish Protestant, and foundacting with a party whose leading object isto abolish liie temporal power of Popery amtherefore crusading against my countrymen !.Shade of common sense, what ails the man?Did you expect mo, sir, to aid, either withmy pen or voice, a system which has huntedmy fathers to tire dungeon and the gibbet;which gave them the rack for argument:which placed on their legs the iron boot, anddrove in wedge after wedge, till Hie marrowoverran this Popish argument, (!) which,huddling women and caught them, as theyrushed madly out, on the heads of their ironpikes? With what party, pray, should I be?•lust where I am, sir, with the American partybecause it has raised its mighty arm, and-sworn by Him who livetli forever and ever,that such schemes shall never be enacted onAmerican soil.

What is my crime? That at a time whenhalf a million of Roman Catholics—tlie blindtools of designing foreign princes—are pour-ing annually upon our shores, I an Irish Pro-testant, when the press is placed at my dis-posal, should cry. “There is danger—forGod’s sake protect yourself, while you can. 1knew them where they burned Bibles, mur-dered heretics, they set the law of the land atdefiance, and would obey no law but the lawofthe Church.” This is my only crime! Andfor this 1 am called flare, sycophant and abject.And by whom? An American Protestant!A man whose ancestors perilled all for "free-dom to worship God.” How long will thatfreedom last when Popery becomes numeri-cally supreme? Not an hour. How oftenwould he, in Florence, visit tlie MethodistChapel, if the Pope could prevent it, (and heis only waiting numerical strength.) Ah, sir,there would he no chapel there —the thun-ders of tlie Vatican would raise it “from tur-ret to foundation stone” just as soon as it hadsubjects enough to carry out its bcuests.—IIheeling Tunes.

Glorious Victories in Alabama.— lt ap-pears that Doughty, American, has* beenelected circuit judge of the Montgomery cir-cuit, Mudd American, of tlie Tuscaloosa cir-cuit. and Hale has been elected iu the Hunts-ville (sth) circuit, by 705 majority'. J. H.Trimble was elected probate judge of Frank-lin county; McDonald, of Lawrence; WileyHawkins, ofLauderdale*: M. Gilbert, of Mar-shall: Cosby; Democrat, of Tallapoosa; Gard-ner American, of Bible MeLannhan, ofShel-by; and Crayton, American, of Chambers.At the election last summer, Chambers coun-ty went against the Americans by near 4UOmajority.

The Americans have carried Lauderdalecounty by 020 majority, which gave tlie Dem-ocrats last fall 400 majority'. American gainover 1,000 voles. This, the Florence Gazettea Democratic paper, wofully announces.

At Macon, the Americans have voted theirCircuit Judge 1,153 to 575 for the chief oppo-nent. They have also been successful inShelby', Talladega, Chambers, Tallapoosa andRandolph. The beginning looks well.

Exactly So. —The American party arc thefirst in flic field, with an unexceptionable can-didate, and there is really no use in the De-mocrats putting up one, unless they reallywant to elect a Black Republican.—[Rich-mond Whig.

The Sag Nichts would prefer the election ofa sectional candidate to any conservativeAmerican. They have lived on sectional ag-itation, and are determined to make that theissue in the coining contest. The RichmondEnquirer and the Washington Union have al-ready' foreshadowed this course of policy. Ifthere is any sincerity in their professions oflove for the Union, it can only be proven byadopting the suggestion i.f the Whig, for a h vefor the Union will certainly demand of thema sacrifice of their partisan feelings, and asthe Washington Union has already endorsedMr. Donelson’s Democracy they had betterhoist the name of Fillmore and Done],son andthus effectually? ‘crush out” fanaticism anilsectionalism, and attest their devotion to theUnion.—[ American Organ.
