TALLow CAsDLEs.-We publish two
receipts to-day for making tallow candles,
furnished in response to our inquiry Of a
week or two ago. We are obliged to our
friends for their endeavors to throw light
on the subject.
BIZ the way. our friend Mrs. Andy
Montgomery has done better than merely
sending US a recipe. She has sent us a
half dozen long. large tallow candies. one
of which now iIIumines the page upon
which we write. They are better can
dies than any made of tallow we have
heretofore seen Blu: we have no doubt
even these could be improved upon.
They are too soft and burn out too fast.
The ingredient for hardening should be
Increased. Many thanks TO Mrs. NJ. for
her kindness in increasing our supply Of
light.

OUTRAGEs BY THE LNCoLNITEs IN XIV
TUcKY-rhe Bowling Green Courier, of the
1st inst, says:
In Anderson county. we are informed the Fed
erals are committing such excuses as have never
been witnessed in this State since the savages
were driven from its borders. Arson, robbery,
plumber. violence, every species of lawlessness is
perpetrated by them. The other day the house Of
Capt INT erback was burned by them. A young
gentleman named Thompson was tied to a tree and
whipped terribly, when his prosecutors left him,
bleeding, suffering and helpless, to perish, ne
would have done but for the timely assistance of
a gentleman who accidentally found him. Stock
is driven off, granaries emptied, hay and wheat
stacks burned. and fEe bridge across one of the
leading turnpike roads there burned the other
day in pure wantouness. This is fair specimen
of Lincolndom in Kentucky.
