there are known or imputed frauds In the man.
agemcnt Of our State affairs, regardless Of those
that may be implicated.
Various attempts were made to amend
the resolutions. One delegate wanted
the words "niggers for the niggerless to
be stricken out, aud another thought II was
slightly undigniied to charge the Demo-
cratic State officers with stealing, Both
expressions suiting the Convention, were
retained.
Mr., Cornell presented resolution, EN-
bodyins his views rs TO the Railroad Bond
question which he preferred to the one In
the platform The only difference between
the two. was that Mr. Cornels resolution.
pledged the S,fte to do all tina, equity ="
requirvd, in the payment OF the interest on
the bends. A. was remarked by delegate,
"equily" at one end Of the State might
mean reputation, and ut the other end it
would be construed into meaning the prompt
payment of all the obligations due by the
State. So Mr.. Cornclls resolution was laid
on the table.

Ginseng.-We learn that this root
is found in considerable quantities in the
central and eastern petitions OF the county.
a company from Hastings has recently
-builta drying house in the heighborhood
Of Bsldenyiilo, for the purpose of.prepar-
ing it for the market, and have several
persons in their emyloy. Many Of our
readers may possibly never have heard
the naine of ginseng, or the uses TO which
1t is pnt. 1t is exported from this coun-
try in large quantities to China, where it
is used for smoking, chewing and medici-
nal purposes. It j, held in much estin1a-
ton by the Chinese, and has been known,
when scarce, to be sold for lis weight in
gold among the celestials. Those cngag-
ed in digging the root, make good wages.
Wo hope it viii be found in sufficient
quantities to justify acontinuation of their
labors.--P Prescott Transcript.
