THE PRINCE AND HIS DANCING PARTNERS
The Newburyport Herald, in remarking
upon this subject, says that " they have one
ridiculous practice, (that is, according to
our democratic notions the selecting of
married ladies, some of them advanced in
ihe, to dance with this young man. Why
cant they for once let him have a chance
with our Yankee girls of his own years
We wish, as final go-of, they would let
MN have his own selection from all the
ladies present, and those he could not dance
with be might kiss, and have a frst-rate
time One time when Henry Clay came to
New York, he kissed mile and a halt OF
women"
BeS-M NJ. Spiquel, French chemist, gives
the following recipe for silvering spoons
and forks of German silver when some
what the worse for wear Dissolve two
grammes of nitrate of silver in forty gram
mes of distilled water; add six grammes OF
pure cyanide OF potassium, which will i'm
medlately cause precIpitate of cyanide of

with glass tube the LIQUID will immmedi-
ately become limpid again. Dip linen

PoTAroEs AT THE WKsT.-The DayenE ort
(lowa) Democrat says: I" If any body
wants to see potatoes by the cord-good
measure let them step down to the levee.
There Is not shipping enough at this time
on the Upper Mississippi to move them away
as fast as they accumulate. Farmers com
plain little that the price is too low, but |
they are the only party to blame if they |
want higher prices they must not raise so |
many. The market price is from IL to Is |
cents per bushel.'
THE anniversary of the death of David !
c, Broderick was observed in California. |
The flags of several of the engine houses |
were at half mast and the Republican and !
independent newspapers published articles /
laudatory of the man and honorable TO his !
memory. The work on the monument has /
i've thousand dollars is in the hands of the |
committee.
UNR NORA correspondent writing /
from Delhi, Delaware county, n. Y, states |
" An eminent lawyer of our village, one of |
the County Democratic General Committee,
and brother in-Iaw of the Hon. Amasa j. /
Parker of Albany, who has served faithful /
ly IN the Democratic ranks all his days,
dlsgusted at the idea of being sold out, has
gone over to Lincoln and Hamlin' /
The papers all over the country have
almost ceased to talk of the chances of the
candidates for the Presidency. 1t is obvious
that only one of them has a chance. The
papers are devOting themselves to discussing
the eventualities of the election of Lincoln.
