To KEEP WORMS FROM DRIED FRUIT.-
Place your fruit in steamer, over pot of
boiling water, covered tightly. Wher tho
roughly heated, tie them up INN ediat9ly in
clean cotton or linen bag, and hang them up.
This method is preferable to heating IN an
oven, as that is apt to render them hard, even
if you are so fortunate as not to burn them.
DROPPED EGG.-For person recovering
from sickness, and not able to take meat this
is an excellent article, and much lighter for
the stomach than eggs cooked in any other
way. Put a saucepan of water with some
salt in it, upon some Goals; as it boils up, drop
in fresh egg, not beaten; as soon as the
white is hardened, take it up carefully with a
skinner, so as not to break the yolk. Have
a slice of toasted bread ready, dip it into the
water in which the egg was boiled, putt upon
plate, spread it with little butter, and lay
the egg upon it.
BOILED Plum PUDDNG.-Take one pound
of good suet; cut it in small pieces, and add
one pound of currants, and one Of stoned raj
sins, eight eggs, one nutmeg grated, one tea
spoonful of ginger, one pound of flour, and
one pint of milk; TO the eggs, previously well
beaten, add one half the milk, and mix well
together; stir in the -four, the spice, fruit, and
suet, and as much milk as is requisite to re-
duce the mixture to plastic consistency, but
quite thick. Boil from four to five hours.

Correspondence of the Springfield Republican

Correspondence Of the Springfield Republican.
LAWRENCE CITY, X. T.. Nov. 2.
I cannot express to you how much we are
delighted with the climate here. Up to this
day we have had sunshine daily, and cool,
west winds almost constantly, and such pure,
balmy air, in the night, as you know nothing
of in the East-none of the dampness and
chilliness of the nights at home Its effect
upon the health is truly astonishing. l should
like to show you, now, some of the pale, sick
ly men who came with us. They are flesh
ing up, eat and sleep well, and it does me good
to see how they enjoy their renovated life
Those who were incapable of labor now do
mans work at chopping or log rolling. One
young man in my mess, slender and helpless
when he left home, now goes into the woods
with me every day, and stands up to his work
like man, and at night, like the good boy
in the spelling book, says, " how good this
bread and bacon tastes"
The Emigrant Aid Company do much for
lis. Indeed, without them we should have
had poor success. There arc some grumblers,
who expect to find here the conveniences of a
settled country, and they go back, many of
them, growing about the false prospects held
out to them by the agents of the Company
Some of this sort called for a change of plates
at the table, and thought it great annoyance
that we could not accommodate them. We
think it doing pretty well to get plates at all,
and we do not regret to see such delicate
gentlemen turn their backs upon Kanzas.-
We hope nobody credits their reports of the
country.
We take our coal from the earth as we need
it-good bituminous coal that burns freely
and we burn our own lime.
The supply of ministers is annie for tba
present, one each of Orthodox Congregation
al, United Brethren, and Swedenborgian, with
Methodsts and Baptists near by We have
three sermons each Sabbath. Mrs Nichols.
of Vermont, with her two sons is here, and
is speaking tonight
We are all confident that this will be Free
State. We do not harbor doubt of it. Even
the Missourians here arc a early unanimous in
favor of freedom, but go for excluding blacks
entirely from the territory. S.
Mr.. Campbell of Ohio, who has Just return
ed from a special mission to the Indians in
Kanzas, confirms the opinion of our cores
pondent in respect to the position of Missou-
rians in Kanzas and the prospect of its becom-
ing Free State. He thinks there are about
5000 settlers in the territory.
Mr.. Robinson, Indian agent, paid to the
Delawares $4,000 instead of the $4,000
stipulated to be paid in October. He told
them the govern hent withheld the balance for
their good, as hard season was before them,
and f they received the whole now, in the
spring they would find themselves destitute.
After grand council and much indignant
talk, the majority voted to take what they
could get. The agent assured them that theii
lands should be sold to the highest bidders

THE CAPTAIN OF THE New ERA.-Mr Jor-
dan, the chief mate of the ship New Era, re-
Gently lost on the New Jersey shore, has writ
ten a letter to the editors of the New York
Eceai,ag Post, denying the statement that Cap
tain Henry was the first person to come ashore.
He says that he was the last on the day
of the wreck to leave the ship, and did
not do so until all hope of rescuing either ship
or passengers was abandoned. He also denies
the statement, that Capt. Henry, after the
ship struck, ordered the passengers below and
shut the matches upon them, thus causing a
great loss of life. He says that, on the con-
trary, one of his first acts was to summon all
the passengers on deck.

JOKES, OLD AND NEw-A Political Sha,ol.
We are told that when the Empress of the
French visits England, she will appear in
shawl worth forty thousand francs, with the
arms of England and France woven in lace.
This is to be typical of the coming free trade
In thread and cotton. P.ach's own cores
pendent observes, in addition, that the En-
perors dress waistcoat will be ornaInented
with border of corkscrews and grapevines
as emblematic of his intention Of throwing
open France to English steel, that England
may in return, take cheap French wine. This
is authentic.-Pu1,ch.

A MILD PARAGRAPH.-The Petersburg
(Va.) hateNigencer, of Oct 81, contains the
following amiable paragraph:
DEMoNIsM. observe paragraph in one
of our,exchanges, which states that that no.
toriouS emissary of Satan, who goes under the
name of the Rec. Henry Ward Beecher,
preached a sermon Mt the Plymouth Church,
on Sunday last, in which he alluded to the
loss of the Arctic, and ascribed it to the wrath
Of the Almighty, thus poured out upon the
heads of the shipping merchants, for support
ing the Fugitive Slave Law. If he did give
public utterance to such a sentiment, and left
the pulpit without bodily injury, it must only
have been because he addressed a gang of
devils like himself. Such a monster IN human
shape, deserves to have a milestone fastened
around his neck, and pitched into the middle
of the Atlantic ocean,
This is the tone of some of the Southern
papers. They have the hydrophobia on this
subject, and poor Beecher seems to be an es-
pecial victim of their rage. Could they bite
him, he would doubtless die in spasms. But
we presume Henry Ward Beecher cares about
as much for such denunciation as he would
for the idle wind. Let the Lnteligencer foam,
it viii feel better when it has cast up all that
bad stuff Christian Era.

LARCENY. = When the steamboat train
reached Allyn's Point on Thursday morning,
Mr.. Thomas Pray, of Danielsonville, was rob-
bed of his wallet containing $500. When he
was getting on board the cars, four men jos
tied him, and while they did so, he felt a
hand apparently in his pocket. When he got
into the car, he found that his wallet was gone.
The four suspicious persons were searched by
the conductor, but nothing was found upon
them. On looking below the seats, however,
the wallet and money were found. The par
ties were allowed to depart, as there was not
sufficient evidence to sustain an action against
them.

A terrible accident happened in Phil
adelphia on Saturday. to a butcher named
Betzner. Ascending a flight of steps to his
pigeon cote, the steps slipped, and he was
thrown upon large hook for exposing meat,
which entered the axilary portion of his arm,
tearing integuments, muscles, and blood yes
sells, for several inches, and left him suspend
ed some three feet from the ground, without
any possible chance of extrieating himself 1t
was nearly ten minutes before sufficient assist
ance was procured to relieve him from his
painful situation.
Whipple, the lecturer, says that DR..
Young, the author of "Night Thoughts"
was in society brisk lively man; but his
main theme in writing was the nothingness of
worldly things, but that his favorite pursuit
was rank and riches. From this and other IL
Illustrations which he cites, he concludes, that
man of letters is often man with two ma
tures-one book nature, and the other hu-
man nature: for Seneca wrote in praise of
poverty on a table made of solid gold, with
two millions of pounds lent out at usury
On the 9th instant, rough looking
customer walked into the clothing store Of
Holmes & Co., in Detroit, Mich, and when
asked by the salesman what he wanted, re-
piled, "nothing, only to look round and see
where your best goods are, as intend to break
in here tonight, and help myself" This he
repeated twice, but no notice was taken of the
matter, and the clerks retired to bed as usual,
only to find in the morning that he had kept
his word, by breaking in and stealing one
hundred and fifty dollars in cash, and seven
hundred dollars worth of goods.
William Arrison, the man who is sup
posed to have caused the death of Mr.. and
Mrs. Allison, in Cleveland, Ohio, by means
of a torpedo box, had taken the name Of Will
lis, and was keeping store in Muscatine,
when he was arrested. He denies the MUIR
der, but is guarded in his answers relative to
the matter.

FAIR IN PAxToN.-The Ladies Sewing So
cety connected with Rev. Mr.. Phipps'
church, held Fair last wednesday, even
ing, at Flagg's Hall. Notwithstanding the
storm, the Hall was filed and many from the
adjoining towns were present. Music and
singing from the "Paxton Glee Club" was
agreeably introduced during the evening. A
poem by "Topsy," was read, which called
forth, frequently, the applause of the compa-
ny. Sentiments were read, and responded to
iastaater, not only by the citizens, but by the
strangers present. Among the latter, was
Dr. Pliny Earle, of New York, who enter
tanned the assemblage for some time, i'll re-
lating his "dottings" in different parts of the
