FAMINE IN KANSAS. 80 Thomas Stanley, q
member of the Society o! Friends, who now
resides in Breckenridge county, Kansas, is
now in this vicinity soliciting contributions Of
wheat, core, grain sacks, &c., for the des.
titute in the section in which he resides
He says the restitution in Kansas is quite
as terrible as represented, and that relief
from abroad is the only hope Of many, and
that the restitution southwest of where he
resides is greater than in Brsckiridge county.
All persons willing to contribute anything
for their relief will please notify Isaac Ne
gus, Thomas Hanna, or Samuel G. Adams,
what they wish to contribute.
ARE They LEGALLY ELECTED p The
question is now quito extensively mootcd in
political circles, as to whether the officers,
chosen at our late municipal election were
elected in accordance with the requirements
Of the law. Many persons assert that the
law demands our city officers should be
elected in April instead Of March, while
others declare, quite as roundly, that the
statute in question has nothing whatever to
do with cities organized prior to the year
1853. We forbear expressing on opinion in
the case as We are not sufficiently acquaint
ed with the premises, and will lay of to see
what We shall see.

The ADIRoNDAC CRATE. AT the recent
Annual Exhibition Of the Montreal nortl-
cultural Society, John W Bailey, Esq, of
Plattsburgh, n. Y, the well Known horti-
culturist and nurseryman Of that place, ex-
hibited a new Seeding grape, of which the
Montreal Herald speaks as follows;
''On the left from the vegetable department wo
encounter the fruit table, the first were several
varieties of grapes from Mr.. Bailey of Platts-
burgh among them was a new variety never be-
fore exhibited, which may be considered one Of
the most valuable contributions to the Exhibition.
For years there has been demand for a grape for
open air culture, suitable for the northern eli
mate; the Concord, Diana, Delaware and others
have been introduced these. however. have suf-
fered from frost and are deficient IN favor Mr..
Bailey discovered at the foot Of the AdirOIdacs g
native grape which ripens fifteen days before any
other and IS decidedly Of better quality, possess
ing most delicious flavor, in fact equal to the
most delicious hot house grape. This grape
which Mr. B. names the Adirondac,' VIII
prove hardy with ordinary winter protection in
all the Northern States and Canadas, and will lie
par c-eslieaee the grape for the north
\ sample of this grape has been submit
ted to us-and 50 far asa single trial enables
US to Judge correctly, our opinion is strongly
in its favor, though we should not place
its rank, 50 far as taste is concerned,
above that Of the grapes named by the
Herald. The sample, however, we under
stand, grew on layer. near the ground,
and could not be expected to have the full
favor of fruit from a mature vine. But it
was decidedly good, and marked in charac-
ter 1t is dark blue grape, of fair size,
and Mr.. Bailey says it ripens from the 9Th
to the Goth Of September, two weeks before
any other good grape, as he has found by
trial of five or SIX years. If future trials
confirm its good qualities and early ripening,
it will prove an important addition to our
fruit gardens.

A CALL FOR BLANKETS.

The IT, 5. Quarter Master General. N. c
MEIGs, has made an appeal to the country
to increase the supply of army blankets by
contributions from family stores. There
must be large number of families in Yer
mont who can contribute one or more good
blankets-no matter if they are not abso,
lutely new. provided they are thick and
warm-and that without asking for pay.
We thind the most feasible way to meet this
call with the least possible delay, is for the
people in each town to send in at once their
spare blankets to some responsible persona
storekeeper for instance, in their vicinity,
who viii take them in charge, and
forward them 70 convenient places Of
deposit in the STATE, to be designated by
the GOyern9r or some proper official under
his orders. When once gathered into few
places, their future disposition is an easy
matter.W are authorized to say that Alessrs.
N.PEcK Il Co, of BURLINGTON, will receive and
take care of, for this purpose, any blankets
which may be sent to them from anv places
in this County. Here IS the official call of
the U. S. Quarter Master General, which
we hope will be printed IN every paper in
this State, and that tie answer to it will be
prompt, and such as it becomes Vermont to
make:
The troops in the field need blankets. The
supply in the country is exhausted. Men spring
to arms faster than the mills manufacture,
and largo Quantities ordered from abroad have
not yet arrived.
To relieve pressing necessities, contributions
are invited from the surplus stores of families.
The regulation army Blanket weighs five |
pounds; but good sound voolen Blankets weigh |
ing not less than four pounds, will te gladly re-
ceived at the Offices Of the United States Quarter
master in the principal towns Of the loyal States
and applied to the of the troops.
To such as have Blankets which they can spare
but cannot aiort to give, the full market value of
suitable Blankets, delivered as above, will be
paid. NJ, c. MEIGS,

The 6Ta REGMESr.-The various eompa-
MES comprising the 9th Regiment have been
assembling at Montpelier, for several days.
and it is thought the regiment will ba IN
readiness to march on Tuesday. The uni
forms are on hand and are distributed as the
companies come in. Enfield rifles enough TO
supply the regiment were shipped from Nev
York on Thursday. The horses and wagons
are all purchased. and will await the reSi-
ment in New York. Walton's Journal says
the dispatch with which the regiment h.s
Deen fitted out, is due to the eficientcy Of
the Governors agent in New York, Col.
Hatch, by whom the purchases of uniforms
and equipments have mainly been made.
