with much satisfaction to all. Having &C.
casionally attended upon the exercises of

PATTEN's CHIN IN ASLlNG.-Joshua's s
elongated visage is certainly mournfu to be-
hold. His former fat, double chin rests
near the place where his suspenders are
buttoned, and the careless manner with
which he transacts his business, goes to
show that he has given up all hopes of
nomination to the profitable Office which he
now holds. To be kicked out in this sum
mary manner is very cruel Clifford is TOO

LATER FROM KANSAS.

The following from Kansas appears TO
be of a date one day later than that OF a
account, which varied in SOME of its
figures, but which elected Calhoun instead
Smith for Governor, at the election held
the 4th Of January:
ST. LOUIS, Jan. 21.-The'D Democrat has
received the returns Of the elections Of the
2lst of December and the 4th of January,
in Kansas, as published overthe signatures
of Gov. Denver and the presiding officers
of the Territorial Legislature. The vote
on theC Constitution on the 2lst stands thus:
With slavery, 6,143; without Slavery, $50.
Ia the election of the 4th January, the
Free State party was triumphant, stectsng
all the candidates for State officers by az
average majority of AS. The Senate
stands 13 Free State to 6 Democrats; the
House stands 20 Free State to Is Demo-
Gratis. The majority against the Lecomp-
ton Constitution on the 4th was l0,226.-
The alleged fraudulent votes at Oxford,
Kickapoo and Shawnee, on State officers,
were counted.
LArER.-We hear from Kansas that the
Administration Viceroo, Mr.. Calhoun, !
rejected enough Free State votes to secure
the apparent election of the Pro-Slavery,
or "National Democratic candidates.
This, no doubt, is in accordance with his
view of Popular Sovereignty."I[Milwau
kee Sentinel, Wednesday.

FRUIT TREES.

The time of making arrangements for
planting fruit trees and for engaging trees
of nurserymen will soon arrive. We be-
lieve that all who have had an experience
of a dozen or twenty years with orchards
in this region are firm and perfect in the be-
lief that orchards will do as we'll here as
any where else in the United States, if the
matter of selecting trees, the kind of fruit
and the method of cultivation are properly
understood. Many have taken wrong steps
and have failed they have bought trees, raj
sed in other soils and climates from dis
eased stock by irresponsible nnrserymen;
and as a consequence, their orchards have
persisted from climate and disease, worms
and inherited consumption; whereas, those
who have more wisely raised their "
stock from seeds and gratis native to our
soil and climate, or purchased their trees
out of nurseries at home, have almost inva-
riably been successful. Witness, the or.
chards of Kilby, Waldorf, Utt, and many
others. Since naming these gentleman, it
has come into our mind to invite inexpe-
rienced persons TO call on them for infor-
nation before purchasing trees.
We caution everybody against tree-ped-
oilers, who are irresponsible and are ans
werable for the loss of confidence in this
country for fruit. Their trees have proved
worthless in almost every instance. Trees
may be had of nurseries from native seeds
and stock in our own county. HARRISON,
Harger, AcCord, DIR. Young and Others are
raising native stock and are prepared to
supply all who may van trees this spring.
We have also a few to spare. There is
no trouble in getting plenty of good home
raised trees particularly seedlings; We
would prefer seedlings, although grated
stock of known varieties for our climate are
preferred by many persons.

press a wish for a specimen copy, a nurn-
Der will be sent gratuitously.

nov they are down to nearly old rates,
while mineral has only fallen about a
third, if it can lie said to bear any price
The rice of mineral, say $50 per 1000, is
only in expectancy; it is ~hypothecated up
ON the probable price of lead. 1t is hoped
that galena will start a market o
Niuing is reyiviug in Grant County; at
least a third more mining is done this year
than last, and from account reaching us
miners are more fortunate i'll making large
discoveries than they have been for Years
probably because more is done at pros
,ecaing or proving new grounds. Most Of
the mining done for some years has been
mere overh auling of old and partially ex-
hausted digging.
Grant County may always rely upon
producing lead ore amounting to some
where between 100000 to a million OF
dollars per annuln, ever in the hardest OF
times. A sinelter told us a few days ago
that there must be now 100000 worth Of
mineral in the county ready for market
He says he can get no mosey of Corwith
nor elsewhere to buy mineral; therefore
the mineral must lie in store like the
wheat and produce Of farmers, for want o.
buy ers. Mineral won't rot, nor will the
iats eat it. Miners are also more economi-
cal of their money than formerly; gam
bling and rot-gut absorb very little of the
money now produced from our mines
We remember when most of it went Ii to
the hands of saloon keepers and gamblers
the day it came from the .melter.
