Bank Resumption.

The community will be gra,ified to
learn that, yesterday afternoon. after a
discussion Of the matter by the Presidents
OF the non specie paying Banks Of Char
lesion, 1t was deemed advisabls not to re-
sume specie payments before Jaiy. The
time for resuming is not fixed and at
the period indicated, tho subject, as We
understand will again come up for consid-
Grafton. The condition Of the Banks
and Of the peeple-the amount Of specie
on hand, and the residue OF exchange
left on the one hand, with the wants Of
the community TO be met With on the
other, will then, rs now, influence the ac
ton Of the officers in charge. For it is
held that, under the circumstances, both
morals and honor require Of the Banks n
careful regard to the public veal. Good
faith towards :he State in reference TO
her late legislative enactments, relieving
the Banks from, the consequences Of mis-.
fortune brought upon them by Northern
connections. in order 10 shield The people
from the effects Of undue stringency in
the money market, which would, other.
wise, have followed, requires circumspec.
tiop as to the results Of premature re-
sumption upon the community - Char

WEDNESDAY MORNING, MAYle, |,
Our Paper.

Our readers vii! perhaps bserve that the
L"c!ger contains less matter this week than
usual, and however much we may regret il,
circumstances have made it beyond our
power TO avoid it. Our Foreman has been
for some time absent in attendance upon n
sick relative. This paper has been made
up entirely BY one hand and the deril, and
those who have any knowledge of the
newspaper business, will readily understand
that they have been more than ordinarily
diIigent and have accomplished much more
than could with reason have been expected

THE End or THE WoRLD-A disciple
of the prophet Miller has arrived ut the
conclusion tha. the present year Is 10 wit
ness the end Of all things earthly. This re.
suit is reached by a mathematical process
The square root Of The cost Of Ezekurs
chariot was 1868. From this, extract pro-
phetc value Of "scarlot lady Of Babylon" :"
1882, and We have 1921. Take from this
the cube ram mentioned by the prophet, as
pushing westward" 4,757, and we have
for remainder, 2,5al. Deduct from this
"the number Of beasts" mentioned in the
Apocalypse, 666, aud we get the result
1853, the year in which the end of the world
is TO take place.

Strawberries.

This delicious fruit is beginning to ripen,
and is plentiful hereabouts If we are to
judge from the number of baskets and
buckets that we see coming in. The first
that we had the pleasure of seeing and of
tasting WIS a present from our esteemed
next door neighbsr, nicely served with the
necessary etseteras and sent to our sane
tum. We know of no better way to repay
the obligation than to publish for ber, and
others Of our lady friends, few recipes,
that we have culled, for preserving the
Strawberry, and which will enable them to
artificially prolong the Straw berry season /:
"STRAwssRRy PREsERvEs.-Select the
largest and haudsomcst berries, weigh them
and spread on platters. For each pound Of
fruit allow pound of powdered write su-
gar. Sprinkle half this amount over the
berries, and lot them stand several hours in
n cool place, to harden and to form liquor
Put them in n porcelain lined kettle, and
by degrees strew on the sugar. Boil them
slowly fifteen minutes, skimming thorough
iy, then take them from the syrup and
spread again on platters to cool and harded
into shape. Then put them into wide
mouthed glass bottles, pour the syrup on
Boiling hot and seal the jars
STRAWBERRY JELLY.-Take the berries
when first ripe and fresh, mash and drain
them through flannel bag. To each pint
Of juice put a pound Of white sugar, and
onc-third of the white Of an egg. Boil
slowly about ten minutes, skimming tho.
roughly, then dip il into tumblers and cups,
ard set it into sunny window, uncovered,
till it jelies then scald them over. II will
never form very firm jelly, but is delicious
and beautiful.
STRAWBERRY JAM.-s'mall and poor ber-
ries will answer, il clean and free from de-
cay. Mash with wooden pes,lc; add to
each pound one fourth of pound Of brown
sugar, boil about fifteen minutes, and seal
up in ear,hern, glass and stone jars.
CANNED STRAwBERRrEs.-Put the ber.
ries over the fire without sugar, and almost
no W atcr, and as soon rs the whole mass s
raised to the boiling point, dip it while boil
ing int" the cans (glass is better than tin
for such an scM fruiD and pour over the
fruit in each can, lit:lc boiling syrup,near-
Iy thick enough to candy. Fill perfectly
full, and seal ar.tight at once. These are
very fine eaten with cream.
Strawberries should never be washed for
preserving. IL dity. do not use them
Strawberry shortcake is n luxury. Make a
large, thick shortcake split it twice through,
and spread with butter and n layer Of fresh
strawberries aud sugar, put the parts to
gether again, and serve hot.

We have had the apple of discord cast

has made Us drunk, and we have, as is too
often the case, commenced quarreling with
one another Fortunately, however, we
have every confidence that the people are
not involved with the excitement now Tag.
ing in this Convention and we have little
doubt that when tho delegates return to
the bosom OF their constituents, .hey will
find that the sober, calm, rejecting masses,
entertain very different views from those
expressed by the most infammable speake
ofthe Southern Convention.
The effect, the lanentable effect Of what
we are deploring, will be the utter disre.
pute into which these bodies will nj once
sink, if they do not cease altogether, which
we think most probable. We know men
who have expressed their disgust already
and are gone home. They came, they said,
"they thought, TO Commercial Convention;
but they have seen nothing but men appa-
rently contending for supremacy in political
position before the country"
ave do not, however, contemplate re-
form--it Is not now TO be expected from
his Convention, and as IL will 10 all proha-
bility be the Ast, the delegates had best
make the most Of the opportunity"
