THE COMING WINTER.-So far as this
section is concerned, the prospects for
hard winter to mechanics and laboring men
are extremely strong. Some seyenty-five
hands have been thrown out of employ
ment by the stoppage of the furnace-the
mills are not likely to drive heavy busi-
ness on account of the inferior quality of
the grain--and in other matters but little
is going on calculated to afford employment.
Those therefore who still have chance for
saving something from their hard earnings,
will act wisely and well by doing so, for
the fact stands undisputed that, unless
some providential or unforeseen circum-
stance will create demand for labor, many
who are in a measure dependent upon it,
win find much difficulty in making both
ends meet between this and the ensuing
spring. We are no croaker, but such are
the appearances to us, and if correct let
all profit by them. There is many half
dime, dime, quarter, &e. that now daily or
weekly goes for trifes, which can be read
lily saved there is many half and dollar
now devoted to extraneous or superhuous
matters that can De readily dispensed with;
and those who will take an economic fit
viii in short time be surprised to see how
these trifes run up into considerable sums,
and how easily they can accommodate them
selves to circumstances in the way of dress,
&c. when there is the will to do it.

"Without pretending to be gifted with proph-

of a Missourian. The people of that State

ural enemies of the Mormons, and are now
nearing the time to "get even' with that peo-
pie for all past misusage Murder and retri-

How TO EAT GRAPEs-Dr Underhill has re-
duced eating grapes to science. Here are his
directions: "When in health, swallow only the
pulp. When the bowels are costive and you
the pulp, ejecting the skin. When you wish to
check a too relaxing state of the bowels, swal-
low the pulp, with the skins, cjecting the seeds.
Thus may the grape be. used as a medicine,
whilst at the same time it serves as a luxury
unsurpassed by any other cultivated fruit
An adult may eat from three to four pounds a
day with benefit 1t is well to take them with,
or Immediately after your regular meals"
