meet in our city yesterday morning this staunch
Republican member elect to the next Congress

ciples in the Territory. He returned below by
the Lady Franklin.
- Ben. Il. Campbell. Col. G. Il. Mix, of
the Chicago and Rock Island Railroad, and Mr..
Howard, the popular landlord of the Gear
House, Galena, were passengers down by the
Lady Franklin yesterday. The Lady F. this
trip was in command of Capt. Dick Morehouse,
whose character Is best illustrated by a remark
Of one of the "excursonists" last summer, that
Capt. Morehouse had heart as large as the
biggest turkey -gobbler that ever waddled."
FoRE1oN NEws.--To John Pym, Esq, the
gentleman who presides at the Clerks desk of
the War Eagle, we are indebted for copy Of

The case OF Joseph Hiss. arrested yesterday
for debt, was brought before the Court this
morning. and, on motion Of the plaintiffs
counsel, the habeas corpus was dismissed.
This proceeding is said to have originated on
the ground that Judge Shaw would require
sworn affidavit, that the whole case was genu-
Inc IN and not trumped up for any purpose other
than the collection of debt.
This is probably the last appearance of Jo-
seph Hiss on any stage.

PRESERVING SUMNER FRUITS.


Such fruits as strawberries, raspber-
lies, blackberries, and the like, may be
preserved in Inc following manner cheap
ly, and their flavor be retained Put
sugar over the fire, at the rate of half a
pound TO a pound of berries, add a little
water, and when hot take upthe fruit in a
skinner and dip itinto the sugar, holding
il there for halfa minute perhaps; then
take it out and spread it on The tins. Go
through The whole LOT in this manner
Then boil down the sugar TO a thick syrup,
and pourii overthe fruit. Set the tinseilht r
in the sun or in a warm oven till the Der.
lies are dried through in thin gelatiDcus
cakes. When thoroughly dry, put the
cakes 10 bag and hang it out of the way.
The cakes will keep as long as wanted,
and may be used in a few minutes, by
the addition of a little hot water-more
sugar being added if necessary. The
beauty of this mode is that the flavor OF
the fruit is retained, while there is nc
danger of its spelling by fermenIation.-
Fruits, when preserved in the usual way
pound for pound-are made too sweet
and loose their distinctive favor so much
that it differs little whether it is preserved
peach or potato. Besides withou. care
preserves are apt to ferment and spoil
