GRAIN IN MlNNEsorA.-The Rochcs.
ter Free Press Of the 18th ult. saws
that the average yield in that region
will not fall short Of thirty bushels to
the acre. Wheat is universally good
and excepting on some low lands in
the river bottoms, which was drowned
out III the July frcshet, erery feid is
good. The heads are large and well
filled with plump beautiful berry
The wheat harvest in Minnesota is
without doubt generally better this
year than in any other State in the
Union. All other kinds of grain are
equally good. There are many fields
OF oats that will afford an average
yield of ninety-fvc bushels to the acre,
and throughout the entire county the
average crop will equal if not exceed
seventy bushels to the acre.
The News, st, Anthony, is informed
that the yield Of wheat had been on
an average twenty bushels to the acre
throughout the timber country. The
oat crop in Minnesota will double that
of any previous year. Potatoes and
vegetables generally arc doing re-
markedly well.

The frozen well at Brandon, Vt,
has attracted crowds of savans at tina:
place this season. Scientific persons
in that vicinity ascribe the phenome.
nom to an iceberg, and that originally
or at some remote period in the long
past, that part of America was the
head of the sea. This hypothesis is
sustained by the fact that several
years ago, in building railroad be-
tween Claremont and White River
junction, the terminus of the Sulli.
van railroad, the bones of an Arctic
whale were found on one of the high
est points of land. All the land near
the well is frozen at depth of a few
feet below the surface. An interest.
ing scientific report on the subject is
understood to be forthcoming.

HERE IT Is" Have we a substitute
for sauce among us :" That's the
question this fall, that puts all politi-
cal subjects in the shade. And here
is the answer. An exchange has the
information. Speak to the hens, and
the grocer, and certify your rcIishcs
for the fall and winter Immediately:
"a dish of what mistook for pre-
serves was passed to me, which, upon
tasting, was much surprised TO learn
contained no fruit. The case with
which it is prepared, and the triiling
cost Of the materials, are not its chief
recommendations, for unless my tast-
ing apparatus deceived me, as it is
not usually wont to do, it is cnphati-
cally tip top substitute for "apple
sauce apple butter" tomato pre-
serve and all that sort of thing. Its
preparation is simply as follows =
Moderately boil a pint of molasscs
from five to twenty minutes, accord
ing to its consistency, when add three
eggs thoroughly beaten, hastily stir
ring them in, and continue to boil IA
few minutes longer, when season with
lemon or little nutmeg.

A BEAUTIFUL THouGBr.-B. F. Taylor
of the Chicago Journal, paints the fol
lowing beautiful picture of the homes
of the immortal which lay "over the
river :" There is a dignity about
that going away alone, we call dying,
wrapping the mantle Of Immortality
about US that putting aside with a
pale hand the azure curtains that are
drawn about this cradle of world
that venturing away from home for
the first times in our lives, for zee are
not dead-there is nothing dead to
speak of-and seeing foreign coun-
tries not laid down on any maps we
know about There must be lovely
lands somewhere starward, for none
ever return that go thither, and we
very much doubt if any would if they
could"

|. DODGE Tanned DowN.-When Dodge
first entered on the canvass with Kirk
wood he assumed the regular slave
driving swaggcr, and stormcd and
ravcd, called kirkwood liar, and
threatened to cram the lie down his
throat in regular fillibustcr style. He
soon found, however, that Kirkwood
could not be bullied, and might not
be whipped, SO he cooled off, Gained
down, and became as tame as any do
nestle animal Of the braying breed.
That shows the benefit of having a
skilful farmer like Kirkwood in the
field. Had not Kirkwood put the bit
into his mouth and held the reins taut,
making him feel that he had master,
Dodge would have cavortcd around
like wild ass during the whole can
vass. The Plow Handle Ticket" is
just the trick. -heokuk Gate City,

THE MAIL SERvIcE.--Thc Administra.
ton, upon the prctext of economy, has
been cutting down the mail service at
least one-half in some Of the most i'm
portant and popnlous sections of the
Union. If the Government cannot af-
ford proper mail accommodations to
the people, says contemporary, it
had better give up the business alto
gethcr. The work could be done by
express companies and private indi-
viduals and such companies and in
dividuals would be liable, as the Gov
eminent is not, for all pccuniary losses
sustained through the neglect of duty
on the part Of their agents.
AS the matter stands, the Govern
ment has "a monopoly Of the mail car
rying business, ncgIccts work most
shamefnlly, and claims and enjoys the
right of losing with IMMUNITY as much
of the money of its customers as it
pleases.--Dareaport Gazette.
