APPEARANCE OF THE PkEsIDEST.-The
editor OF the Louisville Journal, abiding to q
recen, interview with the President, says:
We expected to find the President weary
and worn and haggard. Never were we more
mistaken. He was in the fines, and most
vigorous health; his face as fresh as in the
~earlies. manhood, ere the storms Of State :"
beat upon him. and as calm and serene and
cheerful as il only the responsibilities Of a
private citizen rested upon him. 1t would
have been evident 70 any one, seeing him as
we saw him, that he is a firm, resolute, self
possessed man confident, but not yainly or
a~rrogantly confident in his own strength, and
as immovable as a rock or mountain in his
own deep and fixed purposes. His will is
like his frame. and that is OF iron.

the war, followed the Infamous business Of
the poor devil thus mentioned by the
IClarksburg, (Va.) Conservative:
The (elo de Sc, Isaiah Young by name,
seems to have taken an active part, during
the continuance OF the war, in reporting his
neighborsi to the Provost Marshal, and
having them arrested for dlsloyalty. Since
the termination of the war he has been
equally active in reporting them to the
Registrar and having their names stricken
from the list of voters. But slumbering
conscience was at last nwakened-by what
means is not stated-and remorse preyed
upon him until life became n burden. A
few days aflerward he put an end to his
unhappy life by drowning himself In his

his death with the remark, that he ''com

tain respects for the reissue Of lost coupon
bonds IL appears that a gentleman from
Maine lost q flve-hundred-dollar bond, but
subsequently recovered II IN n mutilated

authorize the Secretary 10 reissue the bond
and coupons.
The committee recommend that on the
surrender of the mutilated bond, q new
one be iasued without coupons that the
thirteen coupons attached to the old bond
be held valid, and that they cannot author
ize the reissue of the coupons supposed to
be lost, for there " no evidence that they
may not still be In existence.
The last point settles a great many ap-
plications for the reissue Of lost coupons

The wheat harvest is in full progress in

The yield is generally good, and the grain
full and plump and of the best quality.
The quantity Of ripe wheat fields to1be seen,
while passing over the country from the
Mississippi TO the Wabash Valley, is unusu-
ally large, and the crop will, no doubt, turn
out well.
Some of the farmers are already selling
their wheat TO dealers at prices ranging

How CURRANT WINE SHOULD RE MADE
In all the ranges of the different classes OF
wines, especially of the domestic qualities,
is there any one more delicious than the
cwrdnt, when it is properly made? The
curdat season is now upon our country
and rural friends. We understand that the
crop promises to be fair In many localities.
Ho,g 20 make Cuirdnt Vine? do you ask.
Try our PROCESS, many years ago thor
oughly tested, and 1t has stood the test for
many years since;
First, crush the currants ellectually, then
place them In 4 strong bag, and press the
juice out, by whatever means will effect
it best; then, to each quart of juice add
three pounds of double-reflned sugar, and
as much water as will make one gallon
Good brown sugar will answer, but not SO
well in retaining the fine flavor of the
wine, though it will give ii more body.
To make ten gallon keg of wine, 1t will
require ten quarts of eurrant juice, and
thirty pounds of sugar, filed up with wa
ter. BE sure that the sugar is well dissolv-
ed, by rolling over or shaking the cask but
we prefer mixing all together before put
ting into the cask, in an open vessel, In
which 1t should remain forty eight hours,
and frequently skinned. Fermentation
will begin in one or two days, the bung be-
ing removed, and win continue some two
or.three weeks. After it has entirely ceased
fermenting rack OFF carefully; then scald
out the barrel, return the wine 30 the cask,
tightly bung up, and leave undisturbed fol
six months before using. when, II pre-
terred, 1t can be bottled. IL requires nc
clearing substance or spirituous liquor ol
any kind, as it is much better without
either.
The keg, cask, or whatever vessel it may
be made In, should be Jli, and as fermenta-
tion Is going on, and the cxtraneous sub
stances thrown out of the bLng, the vessel
should be kept full by adding sufficient pure
juice kept in reserve,
Follow this, and you will have nectar
fit for the taste Of the most astidlous pa

THE blllhY EMPIRE.


CRIME IN THE CouSrRY.-It is wonderful
what crimes, numerous aud monstrous, are
boldlng high carnival throughout the
country. in town aud village neighbor-
hoods, more especially. The massacre Of
the Roosa family, followed by the wiping
out Of the Deering family, possessing fca-
lures but little more shocking, were the
crowning crimes of this unnatnrnl charac-
ter, but they have been followed up, week.
ly, at least, with others equally devIIish but
of lesser magnitude.
On Tuesday last, three members Of the
Woodward family were murdered in a
country neighborhood Of Orange county,
Ind. About the same time a husband in
Michigan undertook the murder.of his en-
tire family two boys escaped TO thewoods,
but the wife and her child were massacrcd.
In the village Of Milford, but N few miles
above Cincinnati. on Wednesday night last,
two men forced their way into the dwell
ling of Mr.. Forman, who was absent. Their
purpose was robbery, but almost resulted
in murder, having fired five pistol shots at
Mrs. i. two balls entering her flesh, but
only wounding. They escaped, without
getting the six or seven hundred dollars
that they knew, or had good reason TO
know, was in the house.
Last night, in the same vicinity, probably
the very two villains who attempted to rob
and murder Mrs. Forman, waylaid a Mr..
Hendricks, who was accompanied by sew
eral ladies coming from party, on the
road, and after knocking him down, rob
bed him of his watch. They also fired at
one of the ladies who started to run, but
without effect, causing her, however, to
faint from fright.
As we said, this series of great crimes
have, of late months. been pcrpetrated in
the quiet country-off from the frequented
haunts of men and the patroling of the
police. SO numerous have they been that
they challenge special remark, and did ,ot
live in the country they would, as
suredly, cause in us some reflection. II We
were so fortunate as to possess enough
money toexcite the cupidity of the burg
lar. we surely would not keep it in the
house. We would see that door and win.
dow fastenings were not of the primitiy,
fashions of many years ago, when society
was comparatively honest, strong locks anC
heavy bolts not thought of and crime rart
when families could sleep in consciou,
safety with doors and windows unfastcned
or open even, and expect, with confidence
that all would be right in the morning
And especialIv did we need IA hand on th,

at least discreetly, before we wonld Civ,

THE LUTHERAN CLERGY AT WHEATLAND.-
Our special attention was called, this morn
ing, to the circumstances attending quite
interesting interview between some dozen
clergymem of the Lutheran Church and the
venerable James Buchanan, EX-President
of the United States, at his fine residence,
near Lancaster, Penn. The InteNigencer
says of the interview:
About dozen of the clergymen in at
tendance upon the Lutheran Synod Mt Ian
caster, paid their respects to Ex-President
Buchanan at Wheatland, OH Thursday. and
were most cordially received by that gen
tlenan. A neat speech of introduction was
made by Rev. q. f. Shaeffer, ID. d., of
Philadelphia, who, in the course of his re-
marks, said that though many of the pres
ent generation were denouncing the Ex-
President in unmeasured terms, he had no
doubt that posterity would do ample Justice
TO his fame and the patriotic motives which
governed his administration. The EX-
President replied in u brief, but feeling and
eloquent manner to DIR. Shaefler's remarks
and the remainder of the visit was devoted
TO social conversation. The reverend gem
tleman left highly pleased with the courte-
Gus manners and dignified bearing of the
venerable Ex-President."
There is not more courtly gentleman,
In any country, than the venerable Buch-
anan-one whose grace and ease of man
ner, cordiality in social contacts, ease and
unprctension in conversation, and happy
faculty of depriying audiences of all stiff
ness and GOODNESS. Before him, all feel at
home.

A SYSTEM oF RoBBRRY DErEcTEp-AR-
REsrs.-The officers Of the two popular
railroads, that connect with our city, the
Cincinnati, Hamilton & Dayton and the
Atlantic 4 Great Western, have been miss
ing valuable lots of goods from their oars,
at Cincinnati. for some weeks past The
wonder was how were they lost and by
whom taken. An investigation became cs-
sential, and Il was entered upon. To aid,
''detectivesN were engaged-Crayen, Bay
liss, Marshall and others. These lynx-eycd
officials went up the road from time to
time, and soon began to discover traces of
how the plunderingtwas carried on. The
magnitude Of the scheme soon began to be
disclosed, and confident that they. were on
the track Of one of the boldest and most
daring acts of robbery perpetrated in the
West, they observed their noted caution.
It was not long before they were on the
proper scent. They found out that when a
car was run upon side track, members OF
this gang would stealthily open the side
door Of the car, aud, taking out the goods,
would again close up the door carefully,
and then make away with their plunder
By this method of stealing, thousands OF
dollars worth of goods have been carried
away. Yesterday afternoon the above
named officers visited Hamilton and ar
rested Daniel McGlynn, Michael McGlynn,
VIM. Howard, Henry Adams, David Jones
and VIM. Harper. on suspicion of being
partiesto this crime They are after Others
Of the gang, and, whether they capture
them or not, it is quite certain that com
binatlon of thieves and robbers has been
pretty eilectually broken up.
