Curing Green Corn.

The following is the Indian method by
which they treat green corn for making
succo.ah, etc., during winter. When the
green corn is fit for use. pit is dug from
two to three feet in diameter at top, and
gradually enlarging it at bottom, say five
feet down, from six to eight feet in tiame-
ter. A large fire is then built near by, on
which stones are heated, aud when red -ho,
the stones and live Goals are shoveled into
the bottom of The pit, and sprinkled over
with fine loose dirt. The corn is then
thrown in with the husks on, Just as it
pulled from the stalk, till the pit is nearly
full. Then comes thin layer of loose dirt
then hot stones-eHough to close the pit
and the whole covered with earth to retain
the heat. When the whole cools off-which
takes several days--the pit is opened, and
the corn is found to be most delightfully."-
cooked. When cool, the husks are stripped
off and the corn dried in the sun; when
thoroughly dried the corn is shelled of
easily, and is then packed away in bags for
use.

A Warning.

A few weeks since, in the course Of con-
versaion with an eminent broker, who has
been over forty years acquainted with the
le aiding moneyed men of the country, W.
asked il he eyer knew a schemer who &C.
quired money or position by fraud, to con-
tnue successful through life, and leave a
fortune at death. We walked together
about three minutes in silence, when he re-
piled. ".Not one! have seen men," he said,
"become rich as if by magic, and aftcrward
reach high position in public estimation,
not only for honor and enterprise, but even
for piety, when some small circumstance, of
no apparent importance. has led to investi-
cation which resulted in disgrace and ruin "
On Saturday we again conversed with
him upon the same subject, and he stated
that since our last interview he had ex-
tended his inquiries among large circle of
acquain,ances. and with one solitary excep-
tion, and thet doubtful. their experience was
of the same effect as his own; he then gave
q brief outline of several small and big
schemers and Their tools, their rise snd fall.
Suicide, murder, arson. and pefjury, he said
were Common crimes with many Of those
who "made haste to get rich," regardless
of the means. and he added, there are not
few men, who may be seen on Change
every day, ignorautly striving for their ow q
destruction. lie concluded that fortunes,
acquired without honesty, generally over.
whelmed their ppssessors with inlamy.

"The Household Good Night.

"Good night" A loud, clear voice from
the stairs said that t was Tommy's. Good
night" murmurs a lit:le something from
the trundle-bed, little something we call
Jenny, that illed large place in the center
of one or two pretty large hearts. GOOD
night" lisps little fellow in plaid rife
dress, who was christened Willie abou' six
years ago.
''Now lay me down to sleep,
pray the Lord my soul te keep;
Ii should die before w-a-k.e'-
and the small bundle in the trundle. bed has
dropped of to sleep, but the broken prayer
may 90 up sooner than many long petitions
that set Gut q great while before it.
- And so it was GOOD night" all around
the homestead; and very sweet music it
made, too, in the twilight, and very pleasant
melody it makes now, as we think of it, for
it was not yesterday, ner the day before,
but long time ago--so long that Tommy
is Thomas Somebody, Esq and has forgot
ten that he ever was boy, and wore what
the richest and bravest of US can never wear
but ence, if we try-ths FIRST pair of boots.
And SO it was good night all around the
house; and the children had gone through
the ivory gate, always left little sjar for
them, through into the land of bliss.

Succotash in the Bowl.

Previous to the American Revolution, an
Indian. who had been converted to Chri; IT,
anity under Elliot, happened to be in town
during Sunday; and feeling TO reverence
tne dav, was impelled by the dictates of duty
to attend the church of the white men. He
entered the house; but no one wishing to
be contaminated by contac: with the Indian,
he was left to stand alone in one of the
a;sles. The preacher commenced and wen
through his routine of service. At the con-
clusion the Indian modestly lifted up his
voice and requested liberty to speak. 1t was
a request that could not well be denied, as
it was plainly enough discovered that the
congregation had curiosity to hear what
the RED man had to say. He commenced,
aud related the history OF his conversion 10
the Christian faith. From this he proceed.
ed to exhort the people. He had burning
thoughts, and being related in the artless
simplicity of his soul, he soon brought tears
from almost every eye.
AS he concluded, the parson descended
from the desk and approached the Indian.
How is it possible,' said the parson, that
you, an untutored savage, having no educa-
lion, possess the power so greatly 10 affect

The American State Convention
COmmendable ReSolutions-No

=
ominations.
tFrom The Cincinnati Daily Gazstte, Of July 20. ]
AT 10 o'clock, the hour appointed for the
convening of the conservative voter." OF
the State, in Mass Convention, in Smith e.
Nixon's Hall, there were but few persons
present. As the minutes flew by, and the
number was so slowly increased, politicians
interested in the movemen, grew nervous,
and ventured many unpleasant remarks
about the want OF patriotism on The part of
conservatives" In about three quarters of
an hour there were, perhaps, four hundred
persons assembled in the hall, some Of whom
are active Democratic or Republican poll
tlcians. These latter, however. sat afar of,
and looked askance at those whose fingers
were in the pudding.
ORGANIZATION.
Mr.. Geo. Stackhouse called the meeting
to order, and moved that Mr.. james f.
Charesworth, of Belmont county, act as
temporary Chairman, which was carried,
and Mr. C.. took the chair. Mr.. Martin
Smith, of Brown county, was chosen Sec
retary, pro. TEN.
MIR. w. B. Probasca now stated to the
Convention, that as it was expected that
delegates from different parts of the State
would come in by the noon trains, it would
be well enough to defer important action as
late as possible, in order to give them an
opportunity to participate. 1t would be
proper, however, for the Convention to pre-
pare for business, and he would there fore
move that Committee of ten be appointed
to draft resolutions. The motion was car.
rled, and the following named gentlemen
appointed:
W. B. Probasco, of Hsmilton; George
Keck, OF Hamilton; Joseph Van Metre, of
Ross; j. N. Snyder, of Richiand; Gilbert
Kennedy, of Montgomery; David L. Jen-
nings. of Belmont; James Farden, of Ross; /;
Alex. E. Glenn, of Franklin; j. Fl. Emins-
er, of Richland; Chatfield Walker, of But
ler.
Some little pleasantly grew out of the
extensive appointment at FIRST of Hamilton
county men on the Committee, which WIS
set at rest by a majority. of them withdraw.

Mr.. Cunningham moved the appointment
of Committee of three to report perman-
ent officers; which motion was carried, and
Messrs. Torrence, Ives ard Compton, of
Hamilton; White OF Ross, and Jno. A.
