Fwghtened to Death by a Vis
ion -A strange and surprising incident
occurred a few days since, in the country
some miles from Corinth, Miss., says the
Caucasian, published at that place. A.
Mrl Mangrum killed a young man dur
ing the war, and a few days since Mr.
" Mangrum was on a deer drive, and
while at one of the stands he saw an ob
ject approaching him which so alarmed
him that he raised his gun and fired at
it. The object which resembled a man
covered with a sheet, continued to ad
vance upon Mr. Mangrum, when he
drew his pistol -and emptied all the bar
rels at the ghost. None of the shots
seeming to take effect, he climbed a tree
to make his " escape. By i. the time he
was a"shori distance up the tree the white
object was standing under him with his
eyes fixed -upon him, and he declared
that' it was the spirit of the young .man
whom , he bad killed. Mangrum was
startled at the steady gaze of the eye
that he had been the cause of laying
cold in death, so that he fainted and fell
. from the tree. His friends carried him
home, the ' ghost following and standing
before him constantly, the sight ot which
brought; up the recollection of his guilt
with, such force to bis mind that he died

Fires. Ifcirdly an exohange on the
Pacific coast received by us that does
not record disasters and losses resulting
from fires. On the Sound,, in Washing
ton Territory y immense damage has been
done ; acres' of forest have been con
sumed ; fences and habitations have suc
cumbed, " knocked under," aud " went
in " before the " heated breath" of the
fire Ling. Such a period of fir?, cover
ing and darkening the heavens with
dense clouds of smoke, was never before
experienced. Nearer home we have .ac
counts of the losses : created which are
almost innumerable. From the Unionist
we learn that terrible fires were raging
at the head of Butte, Abiqua, Molalla,
Rock aud Silver creeks. On the 15th
ult., Cedar camp was entirely destroyed,
and the Gerkin boys lost everything, in
cluding about fifty thousand cedar shin
gles. They fought the fire until they
were satisfied that nothing could be
saved. The men, Sam. Cornelius, and
two Riggs boys,, attempted to make their
escape by the Abiqua route, as that was
the only practicable way. .In traveling
they got lost, as it was so dark they
could not tell day from night, and thus
did not arrive at Silverton until the Fri
day following, being four days and a
half. This fire made its appearance at
the lime kiln about the same time, burn
ing everything, green as well as dead
timber. Jacob Bales, who lives at the
head of Rock creek, had his barn and
all his hay and grain burned, but J suc
ceeded in saving his dwelling.' II is loss
was about seven hundred dollars. Mr.
Cooper says that at the time he left the
fire was about seven miles long, and
about five or six in width. It sounded
like a stotm at sea. It came within half
a mile of his place. Teams have since
been there for lime, and report that the
fire had passed by. None of the men
who were at work at that place remained.
.
Requisition for Arms. Several new
Governors of Southern States recently
made requisitions on the Secretary of
War for arms under . a law passed in
179G, but the Secretary has declined to
furnish until further legislation is had
on the subject. The Governors, in con
sequence, have united in an appeal to
Congress to meet on the day to which
they had adjourned to take action in the
matter.
Governor Warmoutii. Gov. War
mouth, of Louisiana, is a young man, be
ing only 26 years of age. lie is a native
of Illinois, but at the breaking out of the
rebellion was a resident of Missouri, where
he raised a regiment and went into the
war in defense of the flag and the Union.
The rebels of that State will find a rough
"carpet-bag" if they attempt force.

A correspondent of, the Oregonian,
writing from Salem in relation to the
State penitentiary, says : Since the begin
ning of the session, many of the members
have visited this institution some irom
curiosity, others no doubt to fiud . fault.
The universal testimony, however, is that
the grounds, buildings and everything
else is in tip-top order; and that the
Penitentiary was never before managed
with anything like the system and advan
tage to the State as since Major Berry
assumed control. The convicts are turn
ing out large number of bricks and tho
institution, is constantly approaching the
condition of Eelf-sustaining.

Greasing Wagons. But few people
are aware that they do wagons and car
riages more injury by greasing too plen
tifully than in any other way. A well
mado wheel will endure common wear
from ten to tweuty-five years, if care be
taken to use the right kind and proper
amount of grease; but if this matter is not
attended to, they will be used up in five
or six years. Lard should never be used
on a wagon for it will penetrate the hut)
aud work itself out aiound the tenons of
the spokes, and spoil the wheel. Tal
low is the best lubricator for wood axle
trees, and castor-oil for irou. ; -,
Just enough grease should bo applied
to the spindle of a wagon to give it a light
coating; this is better than more for the
surplus put put on will work out at the
ends, and be forced by 1 the- shoulder-
bands and nut washers into the . hub
around the outside of the boxes. i
- To oil an iron axle tree, first wipe the
spindle clean with a cloth wet with spir
its of turpentine, and then apply a few
drops of castor-oil near the shoulder and
end. One teaspoonful is sufficient for
the whole.
The Ohio Farmer thinks that nine
tenths of the diseases which happen to
the hoofs and aukles ojr horses are occa
sioned by standiugfcn the dry plank
floors of the stabled Many persons seem
to think, from the way they keep their
horses, that the foot of the horse was
never made for moisture, and that, if
possible, it would be beneficial if they had
cow-hide boots to put on every time, they
went out.
Feeding Bees. Mr. Langstroth rec
ommonds as excellent bee food "a mix
ture of three pounds of honey, two of
brown sugar, aud one of water." After
you commence feeding, continue it with
out interruption until through, as it
ought to be finished, after Being com
menced, as soon as possible. Make holes
through the center of the fullest honey
combs, which ought to be in the center
"of the hive, so that the bees will have
winter passages to their food without be
ing obliged to go over the edges of their
combs. .
v Curing Green Hides. A great
many butchers wool dealers, etc., are
purchasers of the hides of the beef in the
country towns, and we ofteq get from
them inquiries as to the most proper and
profitable method of curing the hides and
preparing it for market. A great many
butchers do not use proper care in this
branch, and the 'consequence is the hides
will not pass city inspection, owing entire
ly to tho ignorance arid carelessness of
persons preparing them for market. The
proper way to salt hides is to lay them
out flat, flesh side up, and form a nearly
square bed, say twelve by fifteen feet,
folding in the edges so as to make them
as nearly solid as possible. Split the ear
in the cords that run up the ear in each
one so as to make them lie out flat.
Sp-iukle the hide with two or three
shovelfuls of coarse salt, as the size may
require say for a sixty to eighty pouvid
hide from ten to fifteen pounds of salt.
At any rate cover the hide well, as it
need not be wasted; and let them lie in
this from twelve to twenty days, after
which take them up, shake salt well out,

To raise watermelon, without seeds, the
following plan has been successfully
adopted by a planter in !addo Parish,
Louisiana: After the vine is about two
feet long, cover thef vine at a point inter

After it has taken root where it is cover
ed, divide the vine between the old and
new root, and tho result will be that the
melons will be seedless, without impairing
their quality. f

1st. We congratulate the country on
the assured success of the reconstruction
Policy of Congress as evidenced by the
adoption iu a majority of the Sfat6 lately
in rebellion, of Constitutions securing j
'tfjual, civil and political rights to all, and
ne regard it as the duty of the govern- j
merit to sustain these Constitutions, and
prevent tho people of such States from
being reniitted to a state of anarchy or
military rule.
2d. ;The guarantee by Congress of equal
suffrage to all loyal men in the South,
was demanded by every consideration of
public safety, gratitude and justice and
must be maintained : while the question
of suffrage in all loyal States properly be
longs to those States. -
3d. We denounce all forms of repudi
ation as a national crime, and honor rc
quiresHhe payment of the puBc indebt
edness in the utmost good faith to our
creditors at home and abroad, not only
according to the letter, but spirit of the
laws under which it was contracted.
4th. It is due to. the labor of the na
tion that taxation should be equalized
aud reduced as the national faith will
permit.
5th. The national debt contracted as it
has-been for the perservatioc of the
Union for all time to come, should be ex
tended over a fair period, and it is our
duty to reduce the rate of interest there
on wheuever it can be houestly done.
6th. That the best . policy to diminish
our burdeu of debt is to so improve our
credit.4t:hat capitalists will seek to lend
money at lower rates of interest than we
now pay and must continue to pay so long
repudiation, partial or total, open or
covert; is threatened or suspected.
7th. The Govern tne"rttof the United
States shoiild be administered with' the
strictest economy. The corruptions
which have been so shamefully nursed
and, fostered by Andrew Johnson, call
loudly for reform.
8th. We profoundly deplore1 ,the un
timely and tragic death of Abrah"am-Liu-coln,
and regret the fuccession of Andrew
Johnson to the Presidential Chair, who
has acted treacherously o the people who
elected him and the cause he was pledg
ed to support; who has usurped higli leg
islative and judicial functions has refus
ed to execute the laws, has used his high
office to induce other officers to violate
tlie laws, has employed his Executive
power to render insecure the lives," prop-v
erty, peace and liberty of citizens, has

tutioual, has persistently and habitually
resisted by every means in his power,
every attempt at reconstruction of the
States lately in rebellion, has perverted
public patronage into an engine for
wholesale corruption, has justly been im
peached for high crimes and misdemean
ors," and has been pronounced guilty
the"eot' by the votes of 35 Senators.
9th. The doctrine of Great Britain
and other powers that, when a man is
once a subject- ho is always so, must
be resisted at every hazard by the United
States as a re'ie ot" feudal times not au
thorized by the law of nations and at war
with our national honor and independence.
Naturalized citizens are entitled to be pro
tected in all ther rights of citizenship as
though they were native born. No citi
zen of the United States or naturalized
must be liable to arrest or imprisonment
by any for eign power - for acts done or
words spoken in this country, and if so ar
rested and imprisoned, it is the duty of
the Government to interfere in his behalf.
1,0th. Of all who where faithful in
the trials of the war, thbre were none
more faithful for special honor than the
brave soldiers and seamen frho endured
hardships of camp and cruize and imper
iled their lives, in the service of their
country. - The bounties and pensions ap
propriated by law for these brave defen
ders or the Union, are obligations never
to be forgotton. The-widows of the gal
lant dead are wards of the people, a sa
cred legacy bequeathed to the United
States for protecting care. '
11th. Foreign immigration in the
past has added so much to the wealth
and inccased resources of this nation,
the asylum of all nations, that it should
be fostered hy a liberal and just policy.
12th. The Convention declares its
sympathy with all oppressed people who
are struggling for their rights.
The following additional resolutions
were offered by Mr. Thompson,' aud
adopted : . "
. Resolved. That the adjournment of
this Convention shall not work.' dissolu
tion of the same, but it shall remain as
organized, subject to be called together
at any time or place that the Republican
Executive Cmmittee shall designate.
By Carl Shutz : Resolved, We highly
commend in a spirit of magnauimity and
forgiveness the men who have served in
the rebellion and who are now frankly and
honestly co-operating with us in restoring
peace to the country and in the Southern
States on the basis of i impartial justice
and equal rights, and are received into
the communion of loyal people, and that
we are in favor of the removal of the
di-jjualifications or restrictions imposed
ipthe late rebels iu the same measure as
he spirit of disloyalty disappears, as may
be consistent with the safety of loyal peo
ple. ' -'-' I '
Rewlcedt Thai we reeognize the great
principles laid down inlhe Declaration
of Indepeneence, as the true fouundation
of Democratic government and we hail
with gladness every effort towards making
these principles the living - reality on
every inch of American soil.
