Ho'' to Keep Grapes-Those of our readers
who cultivate grapes, or choose to buy them,
will be interested in learning how to spreseryel
them in their natural state for winter use. The
New York Tribune says: s'There are three easy
ways that will serve the purpose in some. degree
that is, it will preserve them some weeks into
the winter, in toerable state of freshness
The first is to hang up the punches separately
by the stems, in dry room, justlcoola enough
to preserve fruit from freezing The next is to 4
pack the bunches each separatelysin dry saw
dust of some sweet wood, in layers, in a box or
cSsk. The other is topack the punches sepa-
rately between layers ofclean cotton fibre or
batting. In.cach case the fruit should be kept
in cool, dry room, and, when packed in cot,
ton, the room may be as cold that ut would
freeze water, and not injure the grapes. Care
must be taken that the fruit is dry and clean;
aud that there are none decayed, mashed or
imperfect grapes on the lunches Every family.

KANSAS DOWN SoUTH.-The Southern
journalists, the more they look at English's
Leeompton Bill, the more they come to the
conclusion that Quitman, of Miss, and
Bonham, of S. c., have been the only real
ly consistent sensible men down South
The fact that the Lecompton Constitution
is submitted TO the people of Kansas
trickily, however, and in the meanest sort
of a way,-begins to be realized, and the
conclusion is now within reach, that, if Sub
mission" was to be submitted to, the Crit
tenden Bill provided the only upright,
straightforward way. Upon this "princi-
pie" the Southern Democracy, it is clear,
has been whipped; but, what is worse,
whipped in dishonor, whipped in trying
to cheat, whipped in an unsuccessful trick.
To the shame of being beaten in the Kan
sas game, is added the shame of being
shown up in vain effort to cheat. Hence,
the Southern Democratic journalists are
sensitive, cross, ugly; some of them snap
pish, disconteutcd, unhappy, and very mis-
erable.

. That Question settled.

A female correspondent of the Milwaukee
Wisconsin, in commenting upon the lately
started question, Should the garter be worn
above or below the knee? puts the matter
at rest thus:
You will take notice, that Just above
the knee there is no hollow or depression
in which garter could be retained, no
projection on which it could be made to
hold. The action of the muscles in walk
ing would surely displace an elastic put
there, as they project quite as far if not be-
yond the knee pan, and would therefore
cause it to slide downwards until arrested
by the swelling muscle that forms the calf
of the leg. As legs were made before stock
ings, we can hardly suppose that this hol-
low was proposed for elastics, but whether
it was not we make use of it as the proper
place to attach our garters TO keep our
stocking in place while on promenade.-
This is the only spot where carriers can be
retained with any comfort, the spot desig-
mated by nature and made use of by ladies
who have well formed limbs. Those wo-
men who resemble mon in their shape may
perhaps tie the garter above the knee, but
they are exceptions to the general rule.
Seeing is believing and we suppose she
gave ocular demonstration TO the Editor of
the Wisconsin, of the truth of her argu-
ment, as she commences in this wise, "You
will notice that just above the knee there
is a hollow or depression" &c, DC. or
course, he could rot notice what lie did
not see, and the editor of the Wisconsin,
is a batcbelor.

Senator DOuslas Taking q
ThrOlsh Ticket.
WASHINGTON, Nav 10, l:


Attempts are making BY those who
would like to have it so, to create public
impression tha, Senator Douglas and James
Buchanan are making overtures TO each
other with the desire of uniting the .Le-
compton and anti-Lecompton forces. I
am authorized by the highest authority
on that subject to pronounce all such re-
ports to be without the slightest founda-
ton in truth whatever. Mr.. Douglas as
suu,ed his present position with his eyes
open, and does not regret having done SO.
He has no overtures to make to Mr.. Bucis-
anan, and the only one that Mr.. Bucbahan
can make to him that will be acceptable,
will be to adopt the anti-Lecompton policy
and administer the Government upon the
principle of fair play and popular liberty;
to call off the Leeompton hounds he has
set upon the people of Kansas, and leave
the latter free to govern themselves in their
own way, subject only to the Constitution
of the United States. MIR. Douglas illus.
trated his position in an expression he made
when he was in the thickest of the Ls-
compton fight. Being asked one day if he
had counted the cost and knew the jourD-
ey he was taking: "Yes," he replied, and
/ hare taken a through ticket, and check
ed all ney baggage."-M r. Post.

Indian Massacre.

Crow Vine, April %.
Arriving here this noon from St. Cloud,
I was told of the shocking massacre of .
Chippewa family by the Sioux, which oo-
cured at l O'Clock last night.
Ottawa, Chippewa, past middle age,
had been out with his family for several
days making maple sugar. Hearing that
the Sioux were about, they came into town
with what sugar they had, being over two
thousand pounds. This was quickly diss
posed of for whisky. Their lodge was on
the island at the mouth of Crow Wing riv-
er, just opposite this place, and was very
much exposed to any stealthy attack. In
fact, Ottawa's friends had advised him to
move from the island, on account of the
suspicious proximity ofthe Sioux. But ho
replied that "he had q spear, and could kill
a Sioux"
AT about one last night the report Of
guns at their ledge, and the cries of the
murdered, were heard on this side of the
river. 1t was discovered early this morn
ing that the whole family, eleven in all.
were horribly butchered. Nine were dead
all were scalped, and the heads of some Gu,
off and carried away. The youngest, a
child with It's stomach cut open, was vet
alive but its tortures were ended by the
friendly blow of a Chippewa. The motheri
the squaw, was stabbed, shot and scalped.
She fingers yet, conscious of the calamityi
but is kindly taken care of at the house Of
Mr.. Fairbanks.
The tragedy occupied but q few mo-
ments. 1t appears there were about forty
Sioux in the company, though it is thought
only dozen went up on the Island
These came up on the east side of the Miss
issippi, and crossed in large canoe, which
was at the lower end of the village. They
were scrupulous enough to leave the canoe
where they found it; but in then fear Of
pursuit they LETT two scalps in it. A few
miles distant they left quantity of cook
ing utensils, and about forty pairs of moe
cosins.
The cause of this monstrous crime was
Paul Pioneer.

LEcoMPToN AND LEAvENwoRrH.-The
Leavenworth Times of the l lth states that
the English Lecompton scheme finds no
favor in Kansas, and that the majority
against it will be counted by thousands
1t says:
We have not yet heard of single man
in this Territory who dares either to sane
tion or apologize for the iniquity concealed
in the English Bill. Against it We shall
poll the united votes of all honest citizens
in the Territory, aud in that vote we will
illustrate anew the integrity and patriot
ism of our people.
The Times learns that the Free State
men of Atchison were intending to vote
their strength in favor of the Leaven-
worth constitution, and urges the party in
every portion Of the Territory to stand by
the colors.

RAILROADS IN NORTH CAROLINA.

RAILROADS IN NORTH CAROLINA
Grip Van Winkle," if slow, is keeping up
We see, with the spirit of the age, in open
ing new lines ofrailroad and extending old
ones. The state has now, we believe, some
1000 miles of railroad, and these works
were begun when the State had not an in
come of over 100000. The taxes, it is
true, have been made somewhat heavier by
the cost of these works,-but the value of
the lands, and of the products of the State,
and its productive power, have been so
much increased, that the taxes ought scarce
ly to be thought Of, considering thengood
that has been done.

SAD DIsAPPoINTMENT-A Washington
letter writer says, the Lecomptonites there
were prepared for great victory in Phila-
delpbia, and had made every preparation
for its celebration with editorial and equal
ly high-sounding thunder from the can
mons mouth; but it has been all loves la
Dor lost, and the swelling sentences of eu
logium, and the powder, which were ready,
will be put away for other occasions, if the
future be SO forgetful Of propriety as to af-
ford them.

A Sad End.

VIM. Gregory, formerly of Columbus,
where he has family friends, met his death
in Cincinnati, on Monday at the hands Of
an associate. The Gazette give the occur
renee as follows:
We gave an account of an affray be-
tween Charles B. Kendle and William Gre
CORY, two well known sporting men, on
Sunday afternoon, and the arrest of the
former by the police, his discharge upon
bali, and subsequent re-arrest when it was
ascertained that the wounded man could
not recover. As was feared, the injuries
to Gregory resulted fatally yesterday morn
ing, some twelve hours after the occurrence
and Kendall was charged with murder in
the first degree.
The facts connected with the homicide,
are about as follows: Kendle and Gregory
went out riding together on Sunday after
noon, to the Millcreek House, and while
there both drank considerably. After their
return, dispute arose in regard to money
matters, and they separated, Gregory going
to his room in gambling house on Fifth
street. Soon after according to the testi-
mony Of black boy in the house, Kendle
rang the bell and asked for Gregory; was
shown to his room in an upper story by
the boy, who turned to 90 away, when he
heard a fall upon the floor, and looking
around, saw Gregory lying down, and Ken
die stamping him with his feet; that Ken
die seized large wash pitcher and smash
ed it over the head of Gregory, when the
witness called another man from an adjoin-
ing room. and the two succeeded in get
ting Kendle away from his victim. The
other boy testified that when he entered
the room Kendle was striking Gregory with
a heavy wash bowl, which was also bro
ken. He then seized tin foot-bath, when
the witness caught him and his doing any
thing more. Gregory did not speak a
word in the hearing of either witness, nor
was anything said before the attack by
Kendle. The last witness heard Kendle
say two or three times that he would kill
Gregory, and also threatened TO kill one
of the negro boys. 1t was in proof that
Gregory, was considerably intoxicated, and
that Kende had been drinking freely.
Gregory has brother residing in this
city, highly respectable citizen, and also
a family living at Columbus, whittier the
body was sent for burial yesterday after
noon. The deceased was generally regard
cd as a very inoffensive mau.

SINGULAR DEATH The Baltimore Sun
of Saturday relates the following singular
instance of death, which occurred at the
Marque House, on Monument street, near
Forest, which threw the whole neighbor-
hood into an intense state of excitement
1t appears that German woman, with
her husband, lived in the house, had been
i'll for some time, and at two o'clock on
Friday morning was supposed to have died.
Her flesh becoming cold, aud her limbs
rigid, she was laid out and prepared for
the grave. Those who nursed her then
closed the room and retired for the remain
der of the night. About six o'clock on
Friday morning, her husband heard noise,
as OF some one calling from the room
where the body lay, and on opening the
door, saw her sitting upright in bed. As
soon as he opened the door, she called him
and asked why her child was crying in an
other room, was not quieted. He was
greatly alarmed, and called for the inmates
to assist him in removing all traces of the
preparations made after the supposed
death. She talked to those around her,
and drank some wine, cup of tea, and
glass of water. She had vague idea Of
what was going on while they were laying
her out, but had not the power to move
or speak, and after returning 10 conscious
asked her husband what they had been do
ing with her after she fell asleep. She
seemed much better than she had been
for some days, but about eight o'clock she
died.

The Singing Nuisance.

Heaven only knows how many strolling
bands of lazy vagabonds are now travelling
through this State, giving "yocal concerts" !"
They have regularly visited Millersburg
about once month for the last three
years, but our citizens generally show their
good sense and proper appreciation of
the singing of these folks, by staying away.
We havn't much of an ear for the best of
this kind of music, but from having to lis
ten to the drawled out Italianized notes
of these singing menageries, may the fates
defend us. Too lazy to work and too
cowasdly to steal, they have taken this plan
to swindls the public.

How THEY LOOK AT IT IN KANSAS
The people of Kansas, as we anticipated,
reject with contempt the pitiful bribe Of
fered them by the administration as the
price of their liberties; they scout the idea
of receiving the Lecompton constitution
even when accompanied by a golden bill.
The Quinda:o Chindowan says:
"For our part, we consider it most in
famous dodge-an Internal swindle-a
piece of unmitigated scoundrelism. 1t is
mean, low-lived, villainous. 1t has its origin
in injustice; its chiefest future is partiality
it is the latest mandate of the vilest despot-
ISM"
The Leavenworth Ledger says:
at now remains for the people Of this
territory to decide whether they will ac-
cept the bribe offered to them by Congress,
or reject it, and with it that budget Of vii
lanies, the Lecompton constitution. We
have 10 much confidence in the integrity
of the people of Kansas to believe that
they would rather remain territory eter-
nally, then to come into the Union under
such insulting and degrading conditions" !"
The Leavenworth Times says:
sour duty, as it appears to us, is plain
thought it be painful. With that devotion
and magnanimity, characteristic of the free
state party, we should drop all thought of
existing state government; 60, like one
man, into the election under the English
bill, vote the land bribe, with its Lecomp-
ton appendage, into eternity, and then urge
forward emigration, SO that before another
year rolls Ground, we may count popula-
ton guaranteeing our admission into the
confederation even under the high h-handed
terms of the English bill"
The Lawrence Republican says:
"As we go to press, we learn that the
Lecompton BILL. as reported by English
from the committee of conference, has pass
ed both branches of Congress-in the
House by nine majority.
Lecompton is therefore passed-provid-
cd the people of Kansas vote to accept
profered land grab; otherwise we remain
in territorial condition until we have 93,-
600 inhabitants.
Ofcourss we will remain territory!
