col. BENTON IN WASHINGTON

The Washington correspondent of the New
York Courier is our voucher for the following ::
The stories of disagreeable interviews between
General PIERCE and Col. BENTON, accompa-
MED by tart and pungent remarks upon both
sides, are inventions. Col. BENTON has ex-
pressed himself in general way as not favorably
impressed with the appointment of Mr.. MARCY
and Gen CUSHING; but the first interview be-
tween the President and the most able and in
dependent chieftain of the party, out of Office,
took place yesterday. 1t was courteous and
cordial. Yet Mr.. BENTON will take position
of antagonism to the Missouri division of the
administration party. He is going home to en-
gage in contest against It's organization against
State Conventions, caucusses, and the other
machinery by which the leaders there seek
ing to protect themselves against the force OF
his individual will, eloquence and energy Mr.
BENTON is resolved to procure the reversal OF
that decision against his famous "appeal' in
1851, which sent Mr.. GEYER the Senate in
his place To this end he means to enter upon
a canvass of the State for the election of ma
jority of unpledged and independent Democra-
tic canddatesto the LIE yislature, in order to out
expect MIR. ArcHNsoN from the Senate and gel
himself in. In this work. he well knows that he
must except the opposition and not the aid o.
the Administration. But with all his resource.
and his indomitable resolution, and his strongly
versatile and active mind, the old Senator will
be beaten, and he will be disappointed and dis
consulate. Party discipline will overcome ever

STOCK RAISING.

we publish in this days paper communica-
ton from the Hon Adam Ferguson, Of Cana
da, upon the subject Of improved cattle. 1t is
an able document and one which deserves the
careful scrutiny of every farmer in the country.
FOO little attention is given to the subject of
perhaps better adapted by nature for this pur-
pose, than the rich, rolling and well watered
praries Of Northern iowa. The climate is mild
and invigorating; the grass thrifty and nutri-
cious the brooks and streams Of cold water
supplied by numerous mountain springs; the
boundaries for stock to roam over almost unlim-
tied !; and every advantage calculated to advance
to high state of perfection stock of every de-
scripton, is possessed to en- emanent degree in
this country.
Viewing the apparent disadvantages which
we labor under for wheat raising and the poor
success which has attended the efforts of our
farmers for several years, we are little surprised
that more attention is not given 70 the subject
Iowa.
/ Agricultural societies have recently Been es-
tablished in this, and some other counties of the
North, and We earnestly hope that the subject
of stock raising, will be one of the first to en-
gross their attention. We have every facility
for producing as good stock as can be produced
on the continent. All we require, is a COM
mendable pride and the outlay of a little sur
plus capital on the part Of our farmers, to i'm
prove the breed, to render our success complete
in this particular.
Our farmers will never be losers, by giving
| this subject little more of their attention.

RUMoRs FROM WASHINGTON,

The Herald Of this morning, publishes let
ter from DR.. Holt, dated Washington City
March Goth, which states in substance, that nc
appointment for the Office of Surveyor Gener
al, will be made for three months, owing to diff
ferences Of opinion between the Congressional
delegations Of Wisconsin and Iowa, as to the
person who should be recommended ! thai
Judge Clark's appointment is favored by the
President and Secretary of the Interior; and
that Col. McHeniy and P. Quigiy will be the
appointees for the Receivers and Registers Of
oicessats
z As we have remarked before, watever comes
opgh. this debilitated medium, should be re-
we'd With much allowance althoughit woulc
BE- sirange that the President should delay
Ne appointment Of Surveyor General, if there
is contest between Wisconsin and iowa, as te
which state should have the appointment.
1t issnot at all improbable that the Presiden
should favor delay, if such contest as spo.
ken of, exists between Wisconsin and Iowa
but it is quite improbable that the Presiden
should be favorable to the appointment of Judg.

SUGAR CURED HAMS.

The plan for curing Hams by smoking, is al
most universally observed in this country Ii
is a matter of considerable doubt, whether this
is the best economy for curing this kind of meat.
Some contend that the Sugar is preferable to
the smoke, and this opinion can be sustained
with good reasons. The labor Of curing hams
by this process is much less than by smoke, and
this should have its weight with all. Anoth r
important reason in favor Of the Sugar process,
is the condition in which the meat is left aftt r
cured The meat is left in a soft, pliable state,
and will remain so for two or three years, owing
to the fact that the oil is not extracted by the
process of heating and smoking. And it is con-
tended that the meat is less liable to become
tainted or infested with insects. These reasons,
if correct, and we believe they are, form a
strong case in favor of the sugar cure. 1t should
not be forgotten too, that considerable is saved
in weight by the sugar process as the oil is re-
tanned in the ham.
Those who desire to test the sugar cured,
can obtain them of Mr.. Norris, who has guam
tity of them in the very best condition.

The mines on Point Kewenew are looking as

of work done it looks splendidly, and bids fair

Mining Company.
The Copper Falls, s. w. Hill, agent, is turn
ing, out finely. In the shaft commenced last
spring, west of the old works, mass of pure
copper, is now in sight, over fifteen feet long,
ana the prospects that mine are at present
better than they ever were before.
The Phoenix, | am sorry to say, is not on the
progressive order. The Cliff, usual, is the
! father CT all copperdom, and under the manage
ment OF Messrs Byerly & Smith, promises TO
| pay larger dividend this year than hereto
fore.
The North American, North West and North
Western are about alike, all getting out copper,
and particularly the latter. With old John
Stevens at the helm, things are bound to go
right.
The Isle Royal Mining Company commenced
work on the 18th Of August, and raised since
that time over twenty five tons of pure copper,
mostly in barrel work, and some in gold seized
masses We have sunk three shafts, SO SO,
and 70 feet deep, on the deep vein, and intend
to connect them this winter. 1t is, in the esti-
nation of every one who visited it, said to be
the best thing ever opened, and for the amount
of work, in this country-ClifF mine not ex-

The Portage Mine, started short distance
from the former, is looking very timely. In dig

following, which is no doubt authentic:-
During the latter part of the last century, the
exled Monsieur Talleyrand resided in small
attic room of house in Goddard's court, be-
tween Front and second streets, in Philadelphia
He was poor-all his furniture consisting OF
one chair and straw cot bed-dependlng foI
his means on some of the French residents
Opposite Christ Church, in Second street, was
small drygood store, kept by T. ?. G, now a
wealthy retired merchant, where Talleyrand
and French General, his companion in exile,
frequently stopped on their accustomed walk
down town to the VIM. Young's bookstore, at
the corner of Second and Chestnut Streets
One cold morning in December, Talleyrand,
came into Mr.. C's store, and offered his watch
in pledge for small sum of money as he was
starving and without FIRE. The money was
given him, and he was referred TO Benjamin
Ferris, matchmaker, who lived nearly opposite,
to dispose of his watch. So reduced was the
man TO whom years ate. as Prime Minister OF
