Drying Blackberries.
Wo publish tho following from a correspon
dent in Houston county. Will some reader who
has a practical knowledge of the subject, send
ns an answer to tho questions propounded?
Messrs. Editors—As Blackberries will soon
begin to ripen, I wish some information in refer
ence to them. WiU yon or some of your read
ers enlighten me ns to the mode of drying them
and the timo required to do it? AEo, bow much
they will lose in drying? That is, if one hundred
pounds measure fifteen gallons when they are
gathered, how many pounds and how many gal
lons will there be when they are dried ? Dried
Blackberries command ready sale at high prices
in the Northern markets, and since they grow
spontaneously and in groat abnndonco in the
South, it would be well for onr people to have
their attention called to them as an article from
which they could make money. Also, I would
like to know if there is any demand for good
blackberry wine, nnd what is its market value ?
Onr people would make largo quantities of it if
they could sell it at its real value.
Please have theso matters ventilated in time
for Iho present crop.
Liberia—What President Roberts
Nays.
Yesterday oprreporter had an interview with
the Hon. .Joseph Roberts, who for fourteen
years noted as Governor nnd President of the
infant Republic, and who is now visiting Phila
delphia prior to his retnm to his African home.
Referring to the charges made against him per
sonally, and also against his people, that slavery
and polygamy existed, and were countenanced
by the Liberian anthorities, Mr. Roberts dis
tinctly denies the charge. Some years ago,
when a cargo of slaves was captured from a
slave trader, they were landed on the Liberian
territory. Tho negroes were barbarians, from
the interior, and each household capablo of sup
porting any others than its own members, took
its share of the destitute savages in, and cared
for them, tho President's family taking it upon
themselves to support sixteen of tho unfortunate
negroes—hence the rumor that Mr. Roberts hold
sixteen slaves.
Of polygamy, it can only be said it exists
neither among the Liberians or tribes taken into
their country as citizens. These tribes prac
ticed polygamy until theywero incorporated in the
Republic, when it censed, or if at all, is carried
on sub rosn, and not with the knowledge or con
currence of tho anthorities. The presont po
litical divisions in Liberia aro known as True
Liberians and Whigs although both parties are
in reality working on the some platform; the
division being merely nominal, or like the co
quetry of courtship, thrown in to give spiciness
to tho affair.
In tho matter of education, tho people are fast
advancing. They have a collcgo, of which Mr.
Roberts is President, and schools which, under
good management, must bo doing much to ad
vance the intelligence of tho little community.
The sugar and other products, rice, arrowroot,
and coffee, which aro raised by tho agricultural
portion, aro exported in considerable quantities
to tho British colony of Sierra Loono. Concern
ing the America-Liberiana, as the emigrants are
termed, tho- ex-Prcsident says, that though at
first inclined to bo somewhat indolent, thoy
soon mako good citizens and well-to-do farmors.
[Philadelphia Inquirer.
Qnccn Victoria.
A London correspondent says: Ono day Oris
week tho Queen sent word to Doan Stanley that
she wished to pay him n visit at the Deonory,
Westminster Abbey, nnd wonld be glad to have
corfain gentlemen eminent in litoratnre to meet
her. She named Mr. Groto, (the historian, nnd
nnflior of “Plato;”) Mr. Carlyle, Mr. Brown
ing, and one or two othors. Theso favored per
sons—or was it tho Queen who must bo con
sidered favored?—were, I hear, greatly pleased
with the interview which they hod with her
»
and expressed her admiration for it.
This will bo gratifying to a public writer not
nnknown to New York, who has called Mr.
Greta's “Plato V the greatest book of the ago.
Tho queen showed that she was familiarly ac
quainted with Mr. Browning’s poems, and
spoke to him relative to his work now in course
of publication, “The Ringandtho Book.” Sho
coversed for some little timo with Mr. Carlyle,
and the subject of pauperism happened to arise.
Mr. Carlyle avowed his opinion that there was
vory little unavoidable and involuntary pauper
ism in England. Her Majesty said that she was
afraid he°was mistaken—that unhappily there
was too much evidence of wide-spread pauper
ism produced by misfortune to admit of any
doubt of its eiistencG.
The party, I am informed, (all this was tola
to me privately, but there is no harm in re
peating it to yon in confidence,) had a most in
teresting conversation, and everybody was de
lighted with the Queen’s urbanity. It is well to
be a Qrieen to be able to bring around her all
the most eminent living men of onr country by
beckoning with her finger. Bnt since the
Qneen loves sneli society, (as she evidently
does,) why not ask members .of it to her own
house a little oftener ? Is she afraid of offend
ing any of tho irritable tribe by asking A with
out B, or C without D ? That is a very unnec
essary fear, for it is well known that writers
are never jealous of each other. Mr. Thacke
ray has well explained that m his chapter on

SPSS'S®,®** the substance of Mr. Writes’
onganal article was compiled by him after arail-
JwiwWpHw with Admiral Porter, who was
present at the interview, as represented in tho
pictures, mid who made a note of the conversa
tion immediately after we separated. He wonld
be more likely to have preserved the exact words
iwed on the occasion than I, who made no notes
then ox since. I pannot now even pretend to
recall more than the subjects touched upon by
the several parties, and tho impression left on
my mind after we parted. Tho interview was in
March, nearly a month before the final catastro
phe ; and it was in my part of the plan of opera
tions to move my army, reinforced by Schofield,
(then at Goldsboro’, N. C.,)to Bnrkesvillo, Va!
when Leo would havo been forced to surrender
m Richmond. The true movo left to him was
a hasty abandonment of Richmond, join his
force to Johnson’s, and striko me in the open
The pres-
po-
: a was comment A could; but at the
vory moment of onr conversation Gen. Grant
was moving General Sheridan’s heavy force of
cavalry to his extremo left to prevent this very
contingency. Mr. Lincoln, in w-ri™, us speak
of a final bloody battle, which I then thought
would fall on me near Raleigh, did exclaim
more than onco that blood enough RaA already
been shed, and he hoped tho war wonld end
without any more. We spoke of what was to bo
done with Davis, other party leaders and the
rebel army; and he leffc me under the impres*
sion that all he asked of ns was to dissipate
these armies, and get tho soldiers back to their
home anywhow—the quicker the better—leaving
him free to apply the remedy and tho restoration
of civil law. He (Mr. Lincoln) surely left upon
my mind thq impression warranted by Admiral
Porter’s account, that ho had long thonght of his
course of action when the rebel armies were out
of his way, and that ho wanted to get civil gov
ernments reorganized at the South—the qnicker
the better—and strictly conforming with onr
general system.
I had been absent so long that I presumed, of
course, that Congress had enacted all the laws

jis her fashions not only in dress, but in moral
laxity, m amusements, in festivity, in dissipa

down andpnllingnp the roots, one after another,
the old, time-honored and onco reverted social
landmarks, safe-guards and hedges,

The students and grisettes of the latin quarter
and the habitues of the Jardin Mobile, in the
wildest of their mad rerols, havo a dance made
up of graceful vulgarity and gymnastic indec
ency, m which extravagant suggestion is the
principle feature. Through the medium of the
stage we have been introduced to this dance
and its devastating influences have spread far
and wide like a wild-fire. It tickled the modem
fancy, fed the growing appetite for sensation
and sensuality, and before we know it, became
fashionable. Not many weeks since it was pre
sented nightly, in one form or another, at ten
nominally first-lass theaters in this city before
audiences respectable in the best sense of the
word. Bnt respectability can not shield from
taint in such an atmosphere; and when we re
member what a large proportion of onr citizens
aro theater-goers, and what an immense in
fluence for good or evil the theaters exert, we
can bnt tremble in anticipation of tho result of
tins subtle admixture of sensuous vice with our
most popular diversion.

Conflagration or Murfreesboro.
The Nashville Banner of Saturday says:
Yesterday morning the little city of Murfrees-
boro, situated thirty-two miles southeast of
Nashville on tho Nashville and Chattanooga
Railroad, was tho scene of a most sweeping con
flagration, which took in its dread embrace the
entire west side of tho public square, including
fifteen of the largest and most prominent busi
ness houses of the place.
Daring the fire tho wall of Mr. Iinffer’s house
fell over upon the house occupied by Carney &
Jordan, crushing through the roof and floors,
killing one negroand severely wounding another,
both of whom were endeavoring to removo tho
goods from the store.
It is rumored that others have perished in the
rains, but nothing positive has yet come to light.
A telegram was sent to Nashville for a fire en
gine bnt it did not orrivo until the fire was about
arrested. The total loss has been very great,
although no accurate estimate has yet been
made.
then havo been seen by the most obtuse; nnd
all I aimed to do was to remit the rebel army
surrendering to me to the conditions of the laws
of tho country as they then existed. At tho
time of Johnson’s surrender at Durham, I drew
up the terms with my own hand. Breckinridge
had nothing at all to do with them, more than to
discuss their effect; and he knew they only ap
plied to the military; and ho forthwith pro
ceeded to mako his escape from the country, a
course that I believe Mr. Lincoln wished that
Mr. Davis should have succeeded in effecting,
ns well’ os all the other leading Southern politi
cians, against whom public indignation always
turned with a feeling far more intense than
against Generals Lee, Johnston and other pure
ly military men.
I repeat that, according to my memory, Mr.
Lincoln did not expressly name any specific
terms of surrender, bnt was in that landly and
gentle frame of mind that wonld have induced
him to approve fully what I did, exoeptiDg,
probably, bo would have interlined some modi
fications, such ns recognizing his several procla
mations antecedent, as well as the laws of Con
gress, which would havo beon perfectly right
and acceptable to me and to all parties.
I dislike to open this or any other old ques
tion, and do it for tho reason stated—viz: lest I
be construed ns throwing off on Mr. Linooln
what his friends think should be properly borne
by me alone.
If in the original terms I lind, ns I certainly
meant, included tho proclamations of the Presi
dent, they wonld havo covered tho slavery
question nnd nil the real State questions which
caused tho war; and had not Mr. Lincoln been
Assassinated at that very momont, I believe
those “terms” wonld havo taken tho usual
course of approval, modification, or absolute
disapproval, arid been returned to me, like
hundreds of other official acts, without the
newspaper clamor and unpleasant controver
sies so unkindly and unpleasantly thrust upon
mo at tho time. I am truly yours,

Washington, D. C., April 11, 18C9.
End or a Remarkable Criminal Case.
One night in January, 18">S, Samuel Ketchum,
then treasurer of Coshocton county, Ohio, was
found in his office, bound hand and foot, gagged,
and considerably bruised, tho safo unlocked,
and about $20,000 of the county funds gone.
Kctchnm stated that after ho had lockod tho
safo and was about to leave tho offico, ho was
sot upon by robbers, knocked down, tho keys
taken away from him, tho safo unlocked, after
which he was bound nnd gagged so ns to prevent
his giving tho alarm until tho robbers had made
good their escape. Tho county officials at onco
set to work to ferret out the robbers. A large
reward was offered for their detection; detect
ives were omployod, and in the vain effort to
bring them to jnstico about $20,BOO was spent.
Bnt no cine could be found; they had covered
np their tracks too well, and for noarly ten years
tho matter remained a mystery.
Bnt, about year ago a suit for borrowed mon
ey was brought against Ketchum, tho ex-treas
urer, by James Brown, ono of the loading citi
zens of that county, a man reputed to be worth
over a hundred thousand dollars, and this led to
tho exposure of the whole matter connected
with tho robbery. Ketchum at once made a
clean breast of it. Tho plot to rob tho safe was
concocted between himself and Brown. After
they had secured tho money, Brown, in order to
disarm suspicion, bound and gagged Ketchum,
nnd left him in tho condition in which ho was
found in the office on tho night of tho robbery.
Brown was immediately arrested. He applied
for a change of venue, and the trial was trans
ferred to Licking county. At Newark last week
tho trial was concluded; he was convicted ana
sentenced to ten years in ti>» ■“
to pay a fine of $40,000.—Toledo (OS) Blade, 8th.

Wheat Chop in Tennessee.—The Nashville
Banner says its Tennessee exchanges for the last
week again bring good accounts generally of the
wheat crop. A letter from Marshall county to
the Columbia Herald, says:
“We have never known as much wheat sown,
and to onr great satisfaction it is all looking re
markably well, and to all appearances wifi make
a fair yield. The wheat crop in this portion of
toecountyis looking very fine.

night was quite disastrous to a portion of tne
wheat crop in this section. Major flairs mag
nificent crop, so much admired by all who have
seen it, is rained. The frost affected only the
wheat that was joined.”
Tho Shelbyville Rescue says there
least a third more wheat raised to the sanOmn
there was last season, and there was at leasta
third more wheat sown last fall than the p
ous one. And as accounts from all parts of the
country indicate a large crop, we may reaso
bly calculate upon the largest crop ever raisea
in the United States.

TirF. Colored Ministers Appointed fob Haiti
and Llbebia.—The following sketches are pub
lished of the colored men appointed by Presi
dent Grant: James R. Clay, of Louisiana, to be
Minister resident at Liberia, and Ebenezer D.
Bassett, to be Minister resident at Hayti. Clay
is a resident of New Orleans, and belongs to tho
uper ten of negro society there. His income is
said to bo about $20,000 per annum. He was
educated abroad, and speaks several languages
with great fluency. It is said that tho position
has been tendered him without his request, nnd
those who know him here have some doubts of
bis acceptance. Ebenezer D. Bassett is a Con
necticut Yankee and sscholar of some eminence.
He is at present tho Pricipal of the Philadelphia
High School for Colored Youths. He, too, is
a linguist, nnd speaks German and French as
fluently as he does English. Bassett’s nomina
tion was secured throngh the efforts of George
T. Downing, Frederick Douglsss, and others of
that class of colored men. Downing, who keeps
the House restaurant in the Capitol, was very
jubilant when he heard that Bassett’s name had
corno in. and dealt out wine and refreshments
to his friends.
Hydrophobia.—The following from tho Clarks
ville (Term.) Tobacco Leaf suggests the pro
priety of our municipal anthorities taking pre-
cautionary measures on tho dog qriestion :
A dog, belonging to Dr. Billingsly, of our city,
was attacked on Monday last with a fit of hydro
phobia, and had to bo killed. Several days pre
vious a little child of the Doctor was bitten by
the same dog, though the dog had manifested
no signs of this dreadful disease; since, how
ever, it is feared that the case may prove a seri
ous one.
This is the second caso of recent date, and
fears aro entertained that it will become com-
i. Wo think it proper that onr city authori
ties should take steps to guard citizens against
tho danger of being bitten by mad dogs. There
aro too many dogs in onr city to bo useful under
any circumstances, and it has beon suggested
.that a tax bo levied on dogs as tbo best means
of getting rid of a large number of them.
India Rubber Carriages.—This is the latest
novolty, tho patent has been obtained, a com
pany has been organized and tho first vehicle
has been turned out and is now on exhibition at
Now York, attracting much attention. This use
of vulcanized rubber promises to work a com
plete revolution in tho manufacture and oost of
carriages. The body, dash and seat aro all mado
of rubber at perhaps one-fifth of the cost of the
long seasoned, expensive wood usually employed.
Tho rubber for the body of tho carriage on ex
hibition costs only ten dollars. It requires no
painting nnd is so polished as to shino liko a
minor. Three months’ time of a complete
krnan, which are now given for tho polish
ing and finishing of a ample carriage, is now
supereceded by the work of two or throe hours,
in which a beautiful surface is produced, which
does not soil by any amount <jf handling.
This estate of MUo. Rachel, the celebrated
French actress, has not been settled nntil now.
Hor brothers nnd sisters have succeeded in se

her illegitimate children out of the sums of mon

had died, her brothor, Raphoal Felix, a very
avaricious man. black-mailed a great many gen-
tlemen ■who had written lov© letters to his sister,
and whose Villet-dcnix he held in ierrorau over

large sum. He tried also to extort monoy from

of her children; bnt Walewski laughed in his
face, and told him that everybody knew of his
liaison with Rachel, and that he himself was not

A touno couple engaged to be married were
walking in the vicinity of Bristol, England,

them, and the young man walked hastily away.
The voung woman soon went in search of him,
and found that he had climbed a tree and hang

near the spot; and the girl at onco climbed the
tree and cut her lover down; but she had no
