"This wonderful product, which has con
ferred such substantial benefits on the
world, strango to say, is of unknown origin
-wrapped In mystery, or at least not defi
nitely fixed, A learned nutbor, after much
thought nnd Investigation, concluded with
tho expression: 'I.lko that of wheat nnd
liarley, Its origin Is lost In tho twilight of
antiquity.'
"It was first cultivated In the United
Elates by tho Bngllsh, on the James river,
Virginia, In 108, tho seed of which was
obtained from tho Indians, who claimed to
foo the originators or first discoverers ot tho
plant receiving It direct from the hands of
the Creator. Schoolcrnft gives tholr mytho
logical history of it:
"A young man went out into the woods
to fast, nt thnt period of llfo when youth Is
exchanged tor 'manhood. He built a lodge
of boughs In a secluded plnco nnd pnlntod
his face a sombre hue. I)y dny ho nmuscd
himself In walking nbout, looking nt the
various shrubs nnd wild plants, and at night
layedown In his bower, through which, being
open, ho could look up Into tho sky. Ho
sought a gift from tho Master of Life, nnd
tie hoped It would be something to benefit
his raco. On the third day he became too
weak to leave tho lodge, and ns he lay gazing
upwards be saw a spirit como down In tho
nhapo of a beautiful young nnn, dressed In
green and having green plumes on his head,
who told him to nrlBe nnd wrestle with him,
na this wns the only way In which ho could
obtain his wishes, Ho did so, and found his
strength renewed by tho effort.
WrmtlliiK Mritt-li.
"The visit nnd tho trlnl of wrestling were
repeated for four days, the youth feeling
at each trial that, nlthough his bodily
strength declined, a moral nnd supernatural
energy was Imparted, which promlsoj him
tho final victory. On tho third day his celes
tial visitor spoko to him. 'Tomorrow, said
he, 'will bo tho seventh day of your fast,
nnd tho Inst time I shall wrestle with you
You will triumph over mo nnd gain your
wishes. As soon as you have thrown me
down, strip off my clothes nnd bury me on
tho spot In soft, fresh enrth. When you
have donp this leave me, but como occasion
ally to visit tho placo to keep tho weers
from growing. Onco or twice cover no with
fresh earth.' He then departed, but re
turned the next dny, nnd as he predicted,
was thrown down. Tho young mnn punc
tually obeyed his Instructions In every par
ticular and soon had tho pleasure ot seeing
tho green plumes of his sky visitor shooting
tip trora tho ground. Ho carefully weeded
tho earth, und kept It trcsh and soft, and
In due tlmo wns gratlfleTI by beholding the
maturod plant, bending with Its golden fruit
nnd gracefully waving its green leaves and
yellow tassels lu tho wind. He then Invited
his parents to the spot to behold the now
plant. 'It is Mondamtn,' replied his father;
'It Is tho Spirit's grain.' They Immediately
prepared a feast nnd Invited their friends
to partako of It, and thus originated Indian
corn.
