BOned Turkey.

In Day, Pierre Plot has the follow
ing OF the preparation Of boned turkey:
All birds are boned in the same way,
be they reed birds or turkeys; but the
larger the bird the easier 1t is for inexpe-
rienced persons. We will explain, there
fore, to our readers, how to bone turkey,
assuring them that the anatomy of one Is
the same as that of the other, and that II
is not as difficult as it may appear at first.
We may also assure them that when they
can bone turkey easily they will be able
to bone quail or smaller bird just as
well.
All birds to bone must be picked dry
the skin of those that are scalded breaks
too easily. Those sent 10 market for that
purpose, be they chickens or turkeys,
have been kept without food before being
killed at least twenty-four hours, their
empty crops showing it easily. The pro.
portions for boned turkey are: A mid.
dle.sized turkey, one and a half pounds
of fat, salt pork; smoked beefs tongue
or six boiled, fresh sleeps tongues; two
pounds sausage meat two pounds boiled
ham; quarter or half pound OF trufiies
(if handy; two pounds of shin Of beef
| four stalks of parsley-one of thyme; two
cloves some Of garlic; one carrot in
slices: bay leaf ten whole peppers, and
salt. The tongue, salt pork and ham are
cut in square strips, about four inches
| long and half an inch thick.
The process Is, to SINCE the bird firsti
| hut do not draw it. Then cut the neck
off about half way between the head and

Mceting In Hancock.

We have elsewhere alluded to the pros
poets in this "old reliable" Republican
county. We understand that Mr.. JOHN
A. CAMPBELL, the Republican nominee
for the House Of Delegates, is making
some telling points in his speeches in the
canvass by way Of exposing the features
Of our present State government. Among
other things, he is presenting some Of the
telling facts set forth by Capt DovENER
at tho meeting in Liberty township yes
terday. A gentleman who heard him at
New Cumberland on Wednesday says that
he ia telling these plain truths in plain
way to the people Of Hancock. The
voters of that good county naturally open
their eyes with astonishmcnt when told
that the clerks of committees to the West
Virginia Senate, and tho pages, cost as
much as the per diem OF one half the
members Of the body. They cannot un.
derstand why it is that twenty.iour Sen.
ators should want such remarkable
equipment as that. While they are Of
course aware that the Bourbon idea of a
Senate is that Of an aristocratic and ex-
pensive body, yet they had no idea that
1t was go regal as to require such an es.
tsblishment as that. But this piece OF cx.
traVagance only shows, as General GoFF
contends, that 1t is high time for the people
Of West Virginia to be giving their close
attention to the record Of the men who
are 30 ready to howl about National al.
fairs and yet so averse to discussing State
fnattnra

WE had call yesterday from the
Hon. JOHN II. ATKINSON, Of Hancock
county. He tells us that Hancock will do
her duty next Tuesday and give GoFF
and LOGAN good square majority Of at
least one hundred. A citizen Of Brooke
informs US that we need not be surprised
to see that staid old county give GoFF and
LOGAN majority. The battle ground Of
the Senatorial District is here in Ohio
county, and anybody who walks the
streets and listens to the conversation to
be heard on every hand can see that the
opposition to the Ring are full Of hope,
determination and zeal in regard to the
result next Tuesday.

THE SUMTER COUNTY PRISONERS.

MOBILE, October S.-Tho case Of the
Sumter county prisoners is still pending
before the United States Commissioner,
Two OF the counsel submitted their argu-
ments yesterday. w. W. D. Turner, for
the prosecution, sought TO establish the
existence OF q conspiracy. John Little
Smith followed for the defense, and sought
to show that there was no conspiracy.
Tho defense will also endeayor 10 prove
an alibi. Further argument will be heard
to-day.
The testimony In the Sumter county
case closed yesterday. The decision Of
the Commissioners will probably be rem.
nered tomorrow. The evidence Is very
conflicting thus far. The witnesses ior
The prosecution, except Henry J. Great
las, Billings law partner, have been COL
ored. The Witnesses Tor the defense are
part " hite and part colored. One OF the
witnesses for tho prosecution identified
kenlroe and Bullock, and swore positive.
ly that they were present at and assisted
In the killing, along with twenty or
twenty-five others. The Witnesses swore
that they were In the road at the time
and saw the killing. Hillman was NOT
identified and will be discharged. The
evidence for Reniroe and Bullock proving
an alibi ia strong, Several parties swore
positively that they were at their homes,
the nearest nine miles away from the
scene OF killing. There Is discrepancy
about the name Of Hillman. He is called
IN the affidavit and warrant of arrest
William Hillmsn, but his true name is
Phillip A. Hillman. Two of the main
witnesses Tor the prosecution swore that
Billings was killed between sunset and
dusk, Saturday, August 1st, as he was
riding along the public road, about
one hundred yards from his residence
In Sumter county, both man and horse
were killed, and were found dead Sunday
morning. They also swore that RenIroV
came out OF the woods and SAID with an
oath: "HOltI' when the others rose and
fired.
Nothing was proven by the prosecution
as TO previous threats by either Of the
prisoners against Billings.
The prisoners are quite respectable
looking young men, and are farmers in
oumter comfy.
The Commissioner rendered his de.
cision in the Sumter county case this AZ.
ternoon, committing Renfroe and Bullock
to Jail without bail and discharging Hill
man. The Commissioner refused to enter
into the constitutionality Of the law and
based his decision upon the fact that
while the evidence.estabIishing an alibi in
the cases Of Bullock and Renfroe was
strong, there was testimony enough to
justify their committal.
After the decision, and before it was
carried into effect, the United States Dis
trict Attorney asked the Commissioner to
hold Hillmau until new affidavit chsrg.
ing him with whipping Wilson DOYLE
could be prepared and warrant Issued ior
his arrest. This the Commissioner refused
to do. Subsequently Hillman told The
District Attorney that he would appear
and give bail TO answer this new charge.
