  What you attemtpting to do is not possible. There is no FTP access to free hosted WordPress.COM blogs and we cannot install individual plugins or third party themes into them. Those found on the internet are for WordPress.ORG installs which run on different software.
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/ftp-access/
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/plugins/
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/themes/adding-new-themes/
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/themes/editing-themes/

  On free hosted wordpress.COM blogs we can only use the themes which have been coded to run on this multi-user software and made available to us here. > Appearance > Themes and no others.

  P.S. Just to be crystal clear about this there is no upgrade you can purchase from WordPress.com that will provide FTP access or change anything stated here > http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/
