Northwest part of that county last
Monday week which resulted in the
death of Daniel Harter. The parties,
Kay and Harter, it appears, were en-
gagged in making a settlement con-
corning some business matters be-
tween them. A difficulty arose which
led to high words, and at length to
strife, which resulted in Rays stab

lived but ten or fifteen minutes. Kay

From the Daily Wisconsin,
SLAVES leaving Virginia.

Mr. EpIroR.-Thc outbreak Of liar'
pcr's Ferry will prove 20 he "A great
blessing to the country in the end, as
strange as it may at first appear. .
Mr.. j. II. Wood of this city, well
known to us all, has just received a
letter from a relative of his, who lives
in Virginia, in one of the southern
counties. where the slaves are the
most numerous, and where he has re-
sided many years, and has been shcr-
if of his county. In his letter he
says, you can form no idea in regard
to the excitement that exists all thrO'
the State. 4 more terror-strickcn pco-
pic never saw. All are trembling
for their lives, expecting to meet death
hourly at the hands of their slaves,
led on by the abolitionists. This state
of feelings has made the greatest cow
ards imaginable of the Nirginians {;
not ono Of them dare go out after
dark without being armed to the teeth.
In fact, they are all loaded down with
arms, so fearful are they of being
slaughtered at any moment.
This state Of feeling exists all thro'
the thickly populated slave counties,
and there is no lct-np to it in fact, ii
is daily and hourly increasing to such
an extent, that the mere bark Of a
dog in the night, will bring all to their
feet and cause the utmost constcrna-
ton
The cX-shcrifl' SAYS that there will
he great good realized from this cx-
citcmcnt Already the slaves are
leaving in great numbers for a south,
crn market. Some three hundred have
left his county since this outbreak
and tn, same rush is witnessed in all
the thickly habited slave counties OF
Virginia. He thinks that all of five
thousand slaves have left the Stat,
since this outbreak. The Shareholders
all at once are forcibly convinced y
the propricty of converting such ur
certain property as this into cash
They confess, however, that they ar,
prompted hy higher and nobler mo
tivcs, which is to save the lives 0
themselves and families, by thus &C,
ting rid of such il combnstiblc mate
rial, which. like II great powder maya
zi"c, is liable to explode at any mo
ment.
The cx-shcriff closes his letter b,
saying that this Harper's Ferry atfai
will be the cause of freeing Virgins
of thousands of her slaves this year
and if there was to be Harper's Fel
ry demonstration once a year, for tire
years to come, there would soon b.
the last Of slavery in Virginia.

The New York correspondent of the
Philadelphia Press says that Lola
Montcz is living very quietly up town,
and doesn't have much to do with the
worlds people. Some of her old
friends, the Bohemians, now and then
drop in to have little chat with her,
and though she talks beautifully OF
her present feelings and way of life,
she generally, by way of parenthesis,
takes out her little tobacco pouch and
makes a cigarette or two for self and
friend, and then falls back upon old
times with decided gusto and effect.
But she doesn't tell anybody what
she's going to do.

company, thanked both the wagon
mastersRnd the transfers for the faith.
fnl performance of their duties, and
their general good conduct, and hoped
they might again transact business
with each other. He would be glad
to meet any of them again, and to do
them any service in his power. He
concluded by giving them some cx.
cellent advice, and by expressing his
hearty wishes for their future welfare.
The company then adjourned to the
Nuckolls House, where an excellent
supper was prepared, which must have
been especially tempting TO men who
had been confined to camp fare for
months, and to which all did ample
justice.
Alter supper, toasts were read, and
responses made by Mr. Majors, Judge
Miller, Mcssrs. Wilson and Wood, and
Col. Roe, all of whom were greeted
with hearty cheers. We have not
space for further details. Suffice it to
say, a more pleasant affair, or one in
which social enjoyment, mutual good
feeling, temperance, and propricty
were more fifty blended, it has not of
ten been our good fortune to witness
The relation of employer and en-
ploycc is one in which it is too Otter
the case that other feelings than those
of mutual respect and kindness pre-
vail ; and We feel that the efforts OF
MIR. Majors to promote good feeling
and advance the cause of temperance
cannot be too highly commended
This occasion gave abundant evidence
of his success, and must have been as
gratifying to him as it was pleasant
to all who participated i'll it.

STEAM WAGON. Dunleith Ad
vcrtiser says there is in that place
awaiting shipment up the river, a
steam wagon, adapted to running on
common roads. Its inventor, John 4.
Reed, of New York city, is with it.
He says it will travel any common
road at the rate of eight or ten miles
an hour, and move up an ascent of a
thousand feet to the mile easily. That
last is certainly pretty steep. The
wagon was built at Newark, n. j.,
and is intended to run between st.
Paul and Pembina.

What P0iSOnS The Cattle ?

1t is the opinion Of some of our
neighbors that eating the crushed
stalks of the sugar cane around the
mill in this village is the cause of so
many cattle dying in this vicinity.
1t was at first thought they were
poisoned by eating smutty corn, and
we find that some positively assert
and others as positively deny, that
smutty corn will poison cattle we
also find the same contradictory views
prevailing with regard to the stalks
of the Chinese Sugar Cane. AL now
ever. will agree that the cattle are
dead. and that they were poisoned
We find the following paragraph IN
the Prairie Farmer:
SoRGHo A PolsoN FOR Cattle We
have heretofore given statements by
French writer's. that Sorghum was not
only an injury to stock when fed as
forage plant, but an active poison,
used under certain circumstances.
We have 10 such American testimony
yet that we can regard as reliable,
though we have snndry rumors To
that effect. Another French writer
is "out" on the subject. He does
not believe the Sorgho evident
poison but he Dies regard it injurious,
and confirms the statement of a wri-
ter, which We published on page ia
current volume. We hope some OF
the practical men of the State-some
of the Sorghum growers will en'ight-
en- us on the subject. Who has stock
that has suffered from eating Sorgho =?
