MISCELLANEOUS READING,
A Scrap for Lovers of Molasses.

We copy the following from long and in
tcrcstng article, entitled "Rambles in Surf
nam:
We went to the boiling house, and saw
the molasses dipped out Of the cistern and
put into barrels. The molasses that runs
from the sugar barrels is conducted by
gutter into the cistern, which is under ground,
and swarms with reaches and rats, many Of
which are found dead in the molasses, by
which they are preserved from putrefaction.
could not help thinking that this country
would be an elysium for Cinnamon, for they
might feast here on their dish traits abun-
dainty, and molasses cured rats into the bar
gain. do not know if the molasses which
is imported into this country is used for any
thing else besides distilling rum. 1t is GER
tainly not fit for table use, for besides tho
above mentioned denominations, it is handled
by the negroes in such filthy manner, that
the description of it will disgust everybody
with the same.
The molasses is dipped out of the cistern
with large copper spoons, to which are attach
ed long handles, but when the majority is re-
moved. these spoons cannot be employed any
more, on account Of the quantity of sugar
which has settled at OF near the bottom, im-
parting a great toughness TO the molasses.-
Some negroes have to sit down into it, dip
ping out with large gourds, and it reaches
often over their knees Cleanliness is to he
observed. and their feet and legs are generally
covered with jiggers and other sores. If our
delicate ladies and gentlemen had an idea Of
the manner in which our imported niceties
were handled. they would surely abstain from
the use of them. | once say dog fall into Il
copper in which cane Juice was boiling intense
ly; he was nearly done when the negroes sue
ceeded in getting him out. Ithappens, some
times, that negro who sits on the mason
work into which the coppers are imbedded,
slips into the foaming syrup while doing, and
is boiled 10 death instantly. In neither case
is the syrup thrown away. for it will granu-
late all the same and nobody is the wiser for
it."

calls for the authorship Of the 9th issue of
the Old Line Democrat over tho signature
of one of the 35. when the article was not
signed that way at all, but signed " one Of
the thirty five" Mr.. Recorder says this
letter was not written in Benton County.

hand. Suppose We try to be natural for

The day came at last for George to re-
tnrn home. Fanny was to remain longer.
as her brother Harry had not yet arrived
The two George and Fanny, were standing
in the conservatory. 1t was time he was
IN his way to the station, yet he fingered !:
ne had said goodbye. and received a low
farewell from her.
Suddenly he approached her, and said in
a low, thrilling voice, Fannyl"

For moment she stood where he had
left hcf. and then stopped and took up some
flpag from the floor. 1t was Georges

But the tears fell one after another upon

etanding there, still, the glove laid caress-

Iound her waist, and low voice said,

EDITOR VAN BUREN Press
DEAR SIR /: l notice an attempt to use up
yeur humble servant by some Bentonvillc
correspondent on the subject of the Clerk S
election. The letter 1 wrote you had moth
ing to do with the Clerks election, but as
the Arkansian and its friends must have a
great deal to say about the Benton county
election, will notice it, too. 1t will make
this letter too long to notice all the side is
sues in this election. Consequently will
come right to the point. They say that it
was a test of Hindman's strength in Ben
ton, and it was not that Dickson was a
Hindman man we all know and that he
tried to get Galbreath to run on that test
and failed is true although the last issue
of the Arkansian says that Galbreath took
the gauntlet that Dickson laid down.
where is the Hindman man that ever heard
Galbreath say he was opposed to him. In
one township Anderson, where Bill Buck
Brown, the champion of the Arkansian,
was to sweep everything before him, there
was a good deal of feeling in this election.
but nowhere else that l know of unless it be
Bentonville. At Anderson Dickson re-
ceived a majority of sixty one in Benton
vile, Galbrcatha majority of forty three.
where one Of Dickson's friends counted
twenty-five Dickson men within three miles
OF town who had not voted. Query Ii
