"GOD SAVE THE PLOUGH."
BY LYDIA H. 81GOUKNEY.
See how tbe glittering share
Makes earth's bosom lair,
Crowninsr the brow,
Bread in its furrow springs,
Health and repose it brings.
Treasures that mork at king—
God save the plough.
Look at the warrior's blade.
While o'er the enorimson'd glade
Hate breathe its vow—
Wrath its unsheathing wakes,
Love at its flashing quakes,
Weeping and woe it makes—
God save the plough!
Ships o'er the ocean ride.
Storms wreck their bannered pride.
Waves whelm their prow—
While the untroubled wain
Garnereth the golden grain
Gladdening the reaper train !
God save the plough !
Who are the truly great t
Minions of pomp and state,
Where the crowd bow ?
Give us hard hands and tree
Cultures of field and tree—
True sons of liberty—
God save the plough !
To STOP POTATOES ROTTING.—We clip the
following from an agricultural exchange: "An
experienced agriculturist informs us that about
six years ago he applied lime to potatoes that
were partly rotten, when the lime was applied.
continued to rot and were lost. Since then he
has made it a common practice to applv slacked
lime to his potatoes as he takes them up. He
puts a thin layer of lime upon the floor where
the potatoes are to be laid, and sprinkles some
of it over the potatoes about every ten inches as
they are put down. He considers this as per
fectly protecting them from rolling and he has
never had a rotten potato since he has practiced
it; and he believes also that potatoes thus used
are rendered better by the action of lime.' We
advise the farmers to try this plan, as it easily
can be done by them all."
To SWEETEN RANCID BUTTER. —An agricul
turist, near Brussels, lias discovered that butter
so rancid as to be past use can be restored so as
to have all the sweetness of fresh'butter. This
operation is extremely simple and practicable
for all. It consists in heating the butter in a
sufficient quantity of water, into which had been
mixed 25 to 30 drops of chloride of 1 in e to two
pounds of butler. After having brought all its
parts in contact with the water, it may be left
for an hour or two; afterwards withdrawn and
washed anew in fresh wafer. The chloride of
lime used, having nothing injurious in it, can
safely be increased; but after having verified
the experiment it was found that 25 to 30
drops to two and a half pounds of butter, were
sufficient.
RECEIPT FOR RUSK.—To one quart of milk
add one pound of sugar and half pound of butter,
one pint of the milk must be warmed to make
a sponge of, with yeast and flour, about as thick
as pancake batter, let it rise all night. When
rtsen enough, warm the other pint of milk with
the sugar and butter, put in the sponge; knead
it, but not very stiff. Let it rise again; when
risen enough, mould it into cakes as large as
biscuits, place them in tins and let them rise;
rub them over with sugar and milk. Bake
them in a quick oven. When baked, rub them
again with sugar and milk to give them a gloss.
SOFT GINGERBREAD. —Two eggs, two small
tumblers of molasses, a pint bowl ol water, ,i
lump of saleratus of the siz -of a small buttei
nut, dissolved in water, halfa teacup of butler;
stir in the Dakt flour that will enable it to hake
well; one teaspoonful of cloves, add ginger if
preferred. Bake in pans.
GOOD PUMPKIN PJE WITHOUT EGG:-.— One
quart of boiling milk, two soda or Boston, crack
ers rolled fine, put to the boiling milk, luo tea
cups of strained boiled pumpkin, little salt, one
Cup of sugar, extract of lemon, little gmg-r.
If this quant it v will not make two pies ;.ut~ in
a little cold milk. Bake in a hut oven.
WEDDING CAKE. — One pound of flour, one
pound of sugar, one pound of butter, |w u pounds
of raisins stoned, three pounds of currants well
washed, one and a quarter ounce of mace, one
ounce of nutmeg, one and a quarter pounds of
citron, half gill of brandy, a few cloves. Bake
in large loaves three hours.
(.REAM I RITTERS. —Beat six eggs until (] uite
light, then stir i n one pint of cream, one ' tea
spoonful of salt, half a grated nutmeg, and sif
ted flour enough to make a thin batter; stir it
until it becomes smooth, then drop it bv sooo rr
fuls into hot lard, fry, and serve.
MOLASSES PlE. —Take nine tablespoonfuls of
molasses, six tablespoonfuls of good vinegar, one
and a half tablespoonfuls of flour, a small piece
of butter, a few slices of lemon, or grated lemon
peel; cover with a rich paste. This is decided
ly theiesf substitute tor apple pie.
CRACKER PIE. —Two soda crackers soaked in
one cup of warm water, one small teaspoonful
of tartaric acid, or lemon juice, on e cup of sugar.
Season and bake as apple pie.
PRESERVED PUMPKIN. —Cut a good pumpkin
in strips like citron, sprinkle sugar on them
over night, pound for pound, and the juice of
four lemons, in the morning, boil the peei and
a little ginger root, and add to the svr up. Boil
the pumpkin until tender, then turn "on tne
syrup boiling hut.
A MILE IN THREE MINUTES—A horrible
Old rip of a norse. belonging to a doctor, was
to be sold at auction. He was advertised as a
"Celebrated horse; kind in harness and made
nismile in tr.ree minutes; handy at the plow *
and sold only because his present owner has no
further use for him."
On the day of sale a crowd gathered-amone
which was the doctor, whom the horse no soon
er saw than he began to manifest signs of unea
siness, which the auctioneer called life an d
fpint. The first bid was seventy-five dollars
j and soon run up to one hun_ • ne hundred j
| and twenty-five:one hunu. f ' yat which
l price, the nag was pronotM so, buy- j
! er paid the money, ® nd , d . the spirited
I animal to his wagon, informing the crowd that |
| he was going to Johnstown, where he himself
; belonged.
He had not been absent more than an hour
i when he was seen wen l "- wav oack, not
having got as far as Job -'own. He told the
auctioneer that he bad reiurnid to make some
' inquiries, which perhaps ll would have been
;as well to have made before he bought the
horse.
"You say this horse has made his mile under
three minutes ''
■ "Yes."
"May Ibe allowed to inquire how long i
i since V ,
"Certainly—witlun three weeks."
"One question more- where did he do it?"

REMARKABLE INSTANCE OF HEROISM.—The j
i Rev. Mr Scudder, in India, in a letter gives an j
I instance of heroism, railed forth by the Indian ,
' mutinies: "Let Americans never be ashamed j
j that Englishmen are their forefathers. Eng- |
land is a noble country. Her sons are heroes
i and her daughters art* heroines. Til is rebel
lion has brought out devds that deserve to be
i associated with those valorous actions which
we, with throbbing pulses read in history. In
one place a lady and her husband fled in their
carriage. He stood upright. She took the
reins. She lashed the horses through a band
of mutineers, while he, with cool aim, shot
j dead one who seized the horses' heads, and
another who climbed upion the carriage behind
jto cut him down. On they fled, till again they
i found themselves among foes, and a rope stretch
jed across the road made further progress ap- ]
i pear impossible. 1 rue to herself, she dashed ]
I tfie hoise? at full speed against the rope, and as j
j they bearing it down, stumbled, she, by rein
j and whip, raised them, while her husband's
! weapons again freed them from those who sue- j
I ceeded in leaping upon thern. —He was woun- '
i ded, but both escaped with their lives. In !
| another place a young lady, the daughter of;
jof an officer, shot seven mutineers before they]
J k ilied her. A captain, pressed by his Sepoys, !
; with his good sword slew twenty six of them
before he fell.
I A NEGRO RUNS AWAY WITH A WHITE Wo
i MAN. —The Cincinnati Gazette ot October 19,
I learns that quite an excitement was created i
! at London on Tuesday, by the appearance there j
! of a well dressed negro, having with himagen
i teei appearing, but simple acting and evidently i
I weak minded white girl. From the facts sub- I
, sequenily gathered it seems that botli resided at j
Morrow,and tiiat the negro had induced the]
girl to tun away with him, and she has left iier
lather's home to follow the foriunes of her ebony
admirer. The couple arrived at London on the
evening train, and rode up in an omnibus to the j
hotel, but on arriving there, the landlord took
tiie girl into the house, but refused to permit ;
the negro to stay, and therefore turned him out. 1
—By tins time a considerable crowd bad gath
: er-d about, and the negro, fearing personal j
! violence, took himself off' to another pait of'
1 the town. The girl seemed iniatuated with
; the n gro lover, and expressed a wish to stili .
[cling to him: but the negro, fearing he might
; be mobbed if he persisted in taking the girl with !
him, advised her to stay at the hotel, whirh i
• she did through the night. The pair had not ]
vet bee married, but it was their intention to
call in the aid of a Justice at London, when the
"consummation so devoutly to be wished" was
] interfered with by the people of the town.
The girl was to be sent back to her friends ves
-1 terdac. She is represented to us as comely in
appearance, genteelly dtessed and though not
intelligent, exhibited fair qualities of mind, yet
net of the strongest charact-r. How she should'
have ecom infatuated with a stout,athletic m
gro, with nothing particulaaiy to recommend ;
I him, is a mvstery. Returning reason will
i probably clip the wings of romance, and she .
will see the folly of so dark an elopement.
