T 1 - , jflfc CIRCULATION OF THE MORNING STAR IS LARGER THAN THAT OF 'ANY 0THER DAILY NEWSPAPER PUBLISHED IST -NORTH CAROLINA." ' V fllFBANKINGPRlVIIE Au instance has recently been cited of .the great abuses that arise under the law giving the franking privilege to members lit Congress. An Ex Senator from the West, whose term oxpiredlast March, a .short ti mo ago sent,' under, his official Crank, to the Sr. Louis Republican, the , hosiness card of his son,, a hid of fifteen, who ha l just started4n the vocation of a hi 11 poster.' This violation of . the spirit of trra tranking privilege was' severely cominenied upoa by , the - St. Louis' 'Re publican, and the Senator, in'. a letter tvritfen to the editor of that paper, pre sents the defence that it was not improper ia lum to give to his son what little bene fit he might derive from his official posi tion. The. ex Senator also argues that I he act of Congress provides that "all corres pondence to and from a Senator shall be free until the first Monday in December following the expiration "of. his term of .office, and contends that the law is so "Ir.mied that if he chooses he is at liberty to s;-nd a letter from his son under his oincial frank, as a part ot liis'pertonal cor respondence. This letter of the ex-Sena- fit 'held up as a true confession '- of the i general abuse of the franking privilege and of the impossibility of punisLungtbat-j abuse. - Tim SIAMESE TWINS. It is reported that one of the Siamese twins is lying at the point of death while the other is enjoying his usual god health. Several years ago the Siamese twins visited Europe and consulted the most prominent mreons of Scotland, England and France, in order to obtain an opinion as to the practicability ot cutting 'the ligament. The most skillful surgeons of the United States had previously decided that the risk would be too great to justify them in performing the operation, and the foreign surgeons arrived at the same conclusion. It was, however, decided, that in case of the death of one of tlie twins, the opera tion would have to be performed; but probably with (less risk to the survivor. The statement that one of the twins is dangerously ill, and that the other is in 'good health, is opposed jto the general im lrt'Ssion that the Siamese twins, having the same emotions, feelings and sensibili ties, are also 'affected with, the same bodily maladies. ' JIT I LIZ TION OF 8EVA Gh. A report, published by a Committee of tiie British Association, relative to the treatment and, utilization of sewage, takes tiie ground that it is only by filtering this material through the earth itself that the dissolved and suspended substances which are the food of vegetable and the poison of animal lite, can be kept oiit of our rivers and applied to the production of growths. After this straining, the liquid matter that escape's may, according to the report, be allowed to enter into the rivers without producing any of the. deleterious effects that accompany the introduction of theoriginal sewage matter. Light, porous and gravelly so Is, and even blown sandj thus treated with sewage, furnish crops of great richness, and meadows watered with this substance yield an astonishing growth of grass. '". Hoisted by His Own 'Petard. A story comes from Delaware of an ec centric philosopher who has paid the pen alty ot his criminar attempt to enlighten mankind. .To soniCLextent he did jelighten that abstraction, .but hot . as he' intended to do. He had some theory or other in regard to the yse of his parachutes, which, he absurdly connected with pyrotechnics, and so on, on the Fourth of; July, shortly after dusk, he clandestinely erected in his own yard a huge skyrocket, at the hea'd ot which was attached his parachute in such a way that - while the : rocket was seeking the moon it would remain closed, but when its upward flightxseased it would theoretically open like an umbrella," and thus watt hini safely ? to the ground. lie attached himself to tlielower end, of the stick with the fuse turned away from him in such a way that the fire from the rocket would not . inarov him.: r Then be blazed away and tfent whizzing through the air, dangling and bobbing aa! he sped, s with fire fastening itself, upon him somewhat ' like the pale martyr in; the shirt ot fire' If his parachute ver - opened he did not kuovv it, for presently those who beheld fie wondrous cnirine saw it turn-sharply in midair and fall" The i poor fool was , "una ourned and . mangled not Jar irom . llls own philosophy shop.' , , Funeral of James A.'

Near the confines of Fresho, Tulare, and Inyo counties, in the vicinity of the head wates of the KeWeah, there exists a re markai le piece of country. The Indians Ray it is the abiding place of the Evil Spirit. The country is ruged and rpeky mountains, with deep valleys and pre cipitous1 cliffs.. Snakes and -reptiles ot every description abound in - untold number?, and, taken in all, it is a wild and most uninviting region. But, aside from this, a most curions phenomenon ex ist. The ground trembles and quakes almost continuously, and the abundant rocks grind and grit together as if being urged by some terrible influence. Fre quently,' deep discharges are heard, muf fled'and dull, like the distant sound of heavy artillery. At night the sounds seem to be more abundaot than in the day time. tNo Indian can be induced to venture near the locality, regarding it with superstitious horror. No theory is ad vanced by any one to account for the strange phenomena mentioned. We also learn from William Faymonville that above-the head of Crane Valley, in this county, another place similar to the one mentioned exists. Persons who have visited the last place named describes the sounds mentioned as like muffled thunder. San Francisco Bulletin. ' Microscopic "Wonders. Lewenboeck tells us of an insect seen with the .microscope, of which twenty seven millions would only equal a mite. Insects ot various kinds may be seen in the cavities of a grain of sand. Mould is a forest of beautiful; trees, witli the branches, leaves, and lruit. Butterflies are fully feathered. Hairs are hollow tubes. The surface of our bodies is covered wjth scaleslike a fish; a single grain of sand would cover one hundred and fifty ot these scales, and yet a sc.de covers five hundred pores. Through . these narrow openings the sweat forces itself like water through a s:evr. I The mites make five hundred steps a second. Each drop of stagnant water contains a world of animated ...be ings swimming with as much liberty as whales in the sea. -E ich leaf has a colony of insects grazing on it, like cows on the meadow.- A lleeed A greem ent Between Hold en and Ex-Governor "Vance. x f- Washington, D. C, July 17. Friends of the impeached and self banished ex Governor Holden. of North Carolina, assert to day that they have effected an arrangement with United States Senator elect Vance, and his friends in that State, whereby it is agreed that Hol den shall go back to his home in North Carolina, and rest there in peace, under the protection of Vance and friends, and that, in return for this protection, Holden and hisiriends have obtained a promise from Radical Senators, who heretofore op posed Vance taking his seat in the Senate, to withdraw their objections, and, in pur suance of this. Vance is to have his seat in the Senate at the next session. Corres pondence Bait. Gazette. I- Decapitation.

' Two little girls were recently picking berries on the bank ; ot the Pequonnock river, near 4 Bridgeport ' Conn , and the youngest one, a girl of six or seven, acci dentally tumbled into the water. On the opposite bank a lad thirteen years of age was also gathering berries, and seeing the accident, plunged into the water and car ried the drowning child safe to land. The six yearold child thought she must reward hrrtlivArer. and nuttmsr heri hand into her pocket offered him all the money she nau, wuiuii was jusi ivw- wuw,' , ""j thanked her, but refused to accept any re ward.

At the .-Winter meeting of the Lake Shore Grape .Growers' Association, j.t Cleavelandj Ohio, there were present soir e ib. a a n A- ui iiiu most intelligent men ot trie coun try, who are engaged in this interesting branch of cultivation. The r discussions were directed to the nractical Questions which are constantly arisinsrin a new.lirie of business andl were of value to those present, as will appear in the report 6f the society," soon to be published. Amon's: the topics discussed, one of the most i portant was that of summer, piuninir. ojxauy ox. xne memoers Avere loua in tneir T i . . . . - ... denunciations of the practice, as it . is often pursued in the vineyards, particularfv wucic itivy arc uiauageu uy. Jiiuropea i . rt . i. . j i i i vine-dressers., borne went so far as to sa they preferred to let their vines go wit out any pruning at all, rather than to ha tuem subjected to such a terrible u su mer slaughtering" as was occasionally be seen. They pleaded far the leav claiming that ihev were necessary to ela orate tne sap, to perfect the croD of frnit. and to wipe the wood andtuexaiafor tne luture neauniness oi tne plant. a full expression of similar views by these tender hearted vine-dressers who adopted the motto " Latssez faire, in regard to summer treatment, a member who has long had extensive opportunities for prac tice and observation in the vineyard, stated that he should advise a middle course. consisting of a judicious and systematic, but perhaps some - would think sev eV summer pruning, as tne best method pr directing the sap into the proper channels, and of increasing the production ot large leaves, good fruit, and healthy vigorous shoots, where they were neededfor the re newal of the vine. These results he pre ferred to the extremes that had been al luded to the sacrificing of the growth and foliage, on the one hand, such as uas been- styled " summer slaughtering or, on the other extreme, allowing an indis criminate and profuse production of roots ana leaves, that must interfere with, tne perfect development of the vine, and t proper ripening of the fruit. He clan . that Dy a proper performance of the cl ferent operations which make up the su; mer pruning of the vine, in our attemi to furnish a renewal of wood suita to produce the next crop, these several objects should be kept clearly in view : 1. That we should prune in such a way as to avoid that very common evil, the over-production of fruit. : 2. That wo should prune so as to pro vide for the largest development of. the foliage, and for a renewal of the leaves upon the fruit bearing branches. - . That we should so direct the growttuot the vine as to insure the production of vigorous, healthy canes, to bear the msxi year's crop. And lastly. That wc might, under cer tain circumstance?, find it necessary to prune, or to train, in such a way as to check the growth by extension, and sn- dcavor to develop the buds on the lower part as the canes that are to be appropri ated to the production ot the; nextcrpp. These topics were considered seriatim. I The first operation ot summer pruning is thereiore a process upr tuinning tne fruit, as well as for diminishing the num ber of shoots : but it does not. follow mat there will be any lesa wood produced; on the contrary, it will be found, at the ond of the season, that there is more avaih ble and useful wood, upon a vine that has had this important operationtbat bad been Well carried out, thau upon one which had been so neglected that all its shoots had been allowed to.remain, and contend with one another to their mutual injury. The first process consists in what is called rubbing oujb. It should be performed early in the season of growth very early -so soon ,as the young shoots have made their appearance, and have ; developed themselves sufficiently to show their, little .bunches of embryo fruit; this will be when the largest have grown five orsix inches long. It is evident, that if delayed longer, there must be a greater loss ta tne vine. The vine dresser removes the weaker shoots by rubbing them off with his thumb. When there are twins they should take away weaker ones. Where the joints of the old wood are short, if the buds all break, the branches will be too closes in this case alternate shoots must be removed; or, even more than this, so as to leave the first branches.not nearer than six inches in many vines ten incues wouiu. ue better.' If this work be well.- done, still the be after labor of summer pruning, will very much lightened.' . ' This process of rubbing out is very : ! use- ful for correcting the evils of insufficient winter pruning, as the surplus : buds may be removed, and the amount qi gro win reduced to what the plant is capable oi sustaining to advantaged A vine which may have been wholly -neglected - in ''the winter can still be thoroughly pruned, for all the practical purposes ;pf pruning, by thus removing the surplus shoots rubbing them out as they" appear. ' " ?. I Y Some vine-dxessers depend upon tnis plan of reducing their crop, instead of se vere winter pruning, which is the (more direct method -usually adopted. Some times, indeed, it may be advisable tcf trim the canea long,-when there is apprehen sion that a portion of the buds have been winter-killed. NowMt they still break regularly, the excess can thns be reduced tn thp. nroner stanuaru. xu some vine- yards the whole summer pruning is done Rtnnrft. bv the systematic am sevcie remo- val of a large portion of the shoo :s v by crop, rnhbinfir them out. SO as to. tmn luej which is afterward left to itself. Certain insects are busily at work at tne timfi of this jTibbinsr out. doing a similar work by feating-a portion of the bnds ; but we cannot depend upon their (judg ment in the matter, and should kill the beautiful Haltito thalyhed whe we are disbudding our, vines. American Journal of Horticulture.-,... Good Taste In Dress. 1 It is mistaken economy to furbish up a faded article because it was expensive, for the poor remnant of the past will always tell its own story. A neat, pretty calieo or lawn tastefuly made is more becoming than tarnished finery, .soiled silk or rusty alpa cas. Where but few additions to a ward robe can be made they should be selected always to harmanize with the purse first, then the form, complection and whatever else is left of the year before, that striking contrasts may be avoided. i A French ; woman, however poor, has always the appearance . of freshness and novelty. If she needs new boots' and can have but one pair, although ; her, inclina tion points to drab or bronze boots, she chooses black, as for economy and taste combined ; her best dress is . probably black. She needs new gloves, or bonnet ribbon ; before purchashing she looks over her boxes and finds perhaps her best heck tie is pink'; "She cannot wear pink gloves nor. carry a pink I parasol : therefore she wisely decides upon roses for her bonnet, and drab ribbon, drab gloves, and drab parasol, perhaps brightened with a pink lining, the roses and necktie -freshen admirably the otherwise sombre attire, which is in excellent taste. . A young-lady may think herself very fashionably dressed in green gloves; blue bonnet; and scarlet flowers, and ' purple dress, because each article in itself was costly and well made ; but instead of being fashionable it would be in exceedingly bad taste, as however we may. admire the rain bows in the sky, they are tawdry on the street, American women of fashion and wealth are now beginning to display great tasts in costumes by dressing in uniform colors," and this requires a great outlay of money each 'suit having corresponding gloves, bonnets, parasols, etc., fuxnished by the dressmakers.

N. Y. Tribune. Pickling Cucumbers. The following receipts from an exchange are seasonable and appear practical: 1st. Take cucumbers, wipe them clean, and lay them in stone jars. Allow one quart ot coarse salt to a pail of water!; boil the salt and water till the salt is dissolved; turn it boiling hot on the cucumbers ; cover Lthem up tight and let them stand for twenty-lour hour; turn them into a basket to drain. Boil as much vinegar as will cover the cucumbers"; wash out the jars and put the cucumbers into them ; turn the vinegar on boiling hot; cover them with cabbage leaves "and cover them tight. In forty-eight hours they will be fit for use. '-"..,-... -' 2nd. Pick cucumbers each morning, let them stand in weak brine three or four days, putting in mustard pods and horse radish leaves to keep them green. Then take out and drain, covering with vinegar for a week; at which time take out and drain again, putting in vinegar, adding mustard seed, ginger root, cloves, pepper and red pepper pods, of each about one or two, ounces, to suit different tastes, for each barrel. ' j I The vinegar mu3t be changed once, as the large amount of water in the cucumber reduces the vinegar so much; that this change is absolutely necessary, and if they should seem to flosa their ;sharp taste again, just add a little molasses or spirit, and all will be right. I j Carbolic Acid in Ponltry Houses. Noticing your f inquiry with regard to the use of carbolic acid about poulty houses, I beg to say that I havofor the past year, nsed the three carbolic prepar ations of Messrs. Bowman & Blawett the powder, and the hard and soft soaps, with the most gratifying results. I sprinkle the powder lightly in the bottom1 of the nestSj and on the floor or ground undertue hens with chicks. For a wash for buildings and coops I use a weak solution of the soft soap, and find it'quite as eflicacious as kerosene, and much safer and pleasanter. I am inclined to think that gapes ( a di sease I am not troubled with) might be cured by inclosing the sufferer in a covered box in which carbolic powder had been kept. -.-'-:. . i ' 'r ! WM. R, HILLS. In reply to R. 's inquiry in your last issue I would say that I have used with mach satisfaction a preparation called Carbolic Disinfecting Powder. ' Asoften as I renew the straw in the nests or the absorbentan der the perches, I .scatter a little ot the powder among the fresh straw, and over the renewed absorbent. It he wishes to apply it more directly to his fowls, I would recommend mixing a few pounds of it in their dust bath. It has the effect not only to drive away vermin, but it destroys all unpleasant odors, and completely purifies the poultry bouse. -It is put up in 15 lb. boxes and sella at &1. 50. F. S.
