THE RESULT.

The partial returns thus far received, and which
we give in full in this mornings paper, clearly in
dictate the election of Gen. Harris, and probably
by q largely increased majority over that of last
fall
The complexion of the Legislature is less certain
notwithstanding the returns thus far received strong
ly argue that it will be Democratic by decided
majority. We believe that we have gained Walker
as the Senator from the Memphis District, and
Menees from the District Of Robertson, Montgome-
~ and Stewart We also regard the election of
Rurch from the Hamilton District, and Munday from
the Sumner District as reasonably certain
We believe that we have gained, in the election OF
Thompson, the joint Representative from the coun-
ties of Murray, Williamson and Lewis. The election
of Turner in the District Of Sumner, Smith and
Macon, which We regard as certain, is also gain.
We feel satisfied that we have elected Bate in the
joint District of Shelby, Fayette and Upton, and
have some hope of the two Representatives from
Shelby, all of which would be gains. The news
indicates that we have lost the Representative from
Hamilton.
The returns are not sufficient to base any definite
conclusions upon to theresult in any of the Con-
gressonal districts. Quares has made a gallant
and will greatly reduce his competitors major
ity, but not sufficiently fear, to secure his own
election Guild has also done well, and has greatly
reduced, no doubt, the opposition majority in tha
district We shall be able tomorrow morning, we
suppose, to give returns sufficient to indicate the
general result in every particular until which time
our readers must be considerate and patient.
y sSr Owing to the active engagements incident tC
the election we have given but little attention tC
our editorial columns of to-day. If we may judge
our readers by ourselves, they will feel but litten
tarest in anything but the election returns. In q
few days we shall the regular routine of oul
duties and will endeavOr as faithfully to make our
interesting journal of news, as we have to make il

PREPARING POULTRY FOR MAR
KET.

Messrs. Drew, French & Co., Produce
Dealers of N. Y, have given the follow
ing directions for preparing poultry for
market. For persons who only desire ia
dress poultry handsomely for home use,
the first FIVE rules will still be- useful:
First. Give no food for twenty-four
hours previous to killing. Food in the
crop is liable 10 sour, and always Injuries
the sale. Purchasers object TO paying
for undigested food.
Second. Sticking" in the neck with
a pen-knif, is the best method of killing.
If the head is cut off, the skin recedes,
and the neck bone is repulsiye.
Third. Most of The poultry coming ,s
this market is badly scalded" or Hws,-
picked" .Dry-picked" is preferred.
and sells little higher, other things being
equal. Great care should be taken in
picking 10 remove all the pin-feathers,
and to avoid tearing the skin, particularly
upon the legs, where it is most likely to
be broken. II properly scsldsd, it looks
bsst.
Fourth. The intestines should bs
drawn. After picking. the head may be
taken eff and the skin drawn over the
neck-bone aad tied. This is best, though
much comes with heads on.
Fifth. Next in order it should be
"plumped " by being dipped about two
seconds in water, nearly or quite boiling
hot, and then at once into cold water
about the same length of time. Some
think the hot plunge sufficient without
Inc cold 1t should be entirely cold, bst
not frozen, before being packed. il il
reaches market sound, without freezing
il will sell all the better.
Sirth. For packing, if practicable. i.
use clean hand-threshed rye straw. If
this cannot be had, wheat or oat straw
will answer, if clean and free from dust.
Place layer of straw at the bottom OF
the box, then alternate layers of poultry
and straw-tsking care 10 stow snugly,
backs upward, filling vacancies With
straw, and filling the package so that the
coyer will draw down snugly upon tbs
contents. Boxes holding not over 800
lbs. are the best packages.
Seventh. Number the packages; mark
the contents Of each on the cover: place
the invoice Of the LOT in one package,
marked "bill," sending duplicate by
mail; direct plainly 10 the consignee,
placing the name Of the consigner in one
corner.-O. Cultivator.
Western Reserve chronicle. [volume] (Warren, Ohio) 1855-1921, 1857-12-02

KEEPING PoTAToEs Is WINTER.-Po-
tatoes spoil in winter, if buried, from
three causes. First and greatest, wan.
of ventilation. Secondly, and nearly
allied, dampaess. Thirdly, and more
rare, freezing. Farmers find most Of
their potatoes spoiled at the top of the
heap; where they suppose they became
fIozsn; but this is not the usual cause,
the damp, foul, steamy air ascended
there, and could not escape, and this
spoiled them. A hole made in the top,
with crowbar, and closed with q wisp
Of straw, would have allowed sgress to
the confined air, and saved the potatoes.
The best way to secure potatoes oat
door, is to lake large heads, say so or 80
bushels; see that they are dry and clean
by digging before wet weather comes on;
cover them all over with one foot OF
packed straw, and three. inches Of earth.
Tbs straw will prevent dampneSs, and
lhs few inches of earth will favor Yentil-
alton. A farmer who raises many pola-
toes, and practises this mode, does not
loss a peck, on the average, in 6ty
bushels

1t was no common appariticn to the
people of the inn-this pair. Landlord

He forgot how tired he had been by
his long journey, or he would not hnve

sun streaming in at the window, while
