HINTS FOR COOKINO MRATR. —AII moats
should be put to cooking in boiling
water, as then the outer part contracts
and the internal juices are preserved.
It is important to keep the water con
stantly boiling,otherwise the meat will ab
sorb it .the more geutlymeat boils the more
tender it will bo. Always aid boiling
water if more is needed, and skim when
it first lwgiua to boil. Allow alxuit
twenty minutes for boiling fresh meat,
and from one half to three-quarters of
an hour for salt meat, except ham, which
will 000 Viu fifteen minutes. Iu roast
ing meat it is necessary to have a hot
oven ; to lie tender it should be basted
often. Twenty minutes to a pound ia
required for all meats, except beef,
which only requires from fifteen to eight
teen. In broiling or frying meats, have
the gridiron or fryingpon hot before
putting the meat on. Allow about
twenty minutes for all meats but be*f or
ham; lieefstoak will cook iu about fif
teeu, ham iu about teu minutes.
To SRUfct FKKSR FISH. —The eyes
should lx> clear, the fins stiff, the gills
red, hard to open, and witliont bod odor.
Great care should be taken te thorough
ly clean the fish, removing the smallest
atom of blood. It is best to nee lard or
drippings in frying, as butter is apt to
burn, and make the fish soft. In boiling,
large fish should bv* wrapped iu a cloth,
wound with twine and coverod with more
than two inches of water. Salt should
lie sprinkled in the water (four ounces
to a gallon). For time of cooking a
medium ailed fish, allow ten minutes
per pound ; for a small fish s x miuutes
is enough. The fish should bo taken
from the water the moment it is done.
Halt fish require from twenty four to
thirty hours' soaking, changing the
water several times meanwhile.
DRAWN BITTER. Put two tablespoon
fuls of flour and a little mlt in a bowl,
add half a pint of water, a little at a
time ; work it very smooth, put it into
a aanoepan, let it come slowly to a boil,
stirriug often ; when it lias boiled a
minute or two, add by degrees two
onuces of butter, stirring all the time
until it is entirely incorporated with the
flour and water ; boil up once, and sea
son for any kind of boiled fish or meat.
ALMOND CARES.— Kub two ounces of
butter into five ounces of flour, and Ave
ounces powderwd lump sugar. Beat
an egg with half the sugar; then put in
the other ingredients. Add one ounce
blanched almond* and a little almond
flavor. Roll them in vour hand the sixe
of a nutmeg, and sprinkle with fine lump
vngar. They should be lightly baked.

A farmer writing to an exchange, says:
For the benefit of readers who are unac
quainted with the culture of beets and
roota generally, and who have no idea of
the great value of that crop for stock
feeding in winter, I would give you the
average result of many years on my
Siunds. In arriving at the following
nres, I do not by any means give the
largest yield, bat rather tinder medium,
in order not to mislead any one ; would
also say that the figures are actual sum
paid at the usual price of labor for plow
ing, seed, rowing, cultivating, and har

Amount of beets raised, twenty tons

invaluable to cattle from a sanitary point
of view, and, compared to other feed at
average prices, worth at least fifeent
to twenty cents per bushel.
Mange-wortxel and sugar beets are
the nearest approach to grass, and have
a very beneficial effect upon cattle, leav
ing them in better health in the spring,
thus gaining much time and money. I
feed beets every day mixed with a little
meal—the latter to improve the quality
of the greatly increased quantity of milk
obtained.
Ta l apt are Hawk* and Owla.
A farmer writes to the Ohio Farmer
that he has succeeded in taking about
twenty hen hawks in a steel trap, by set
ting the trap on the upper end "of a
square pole some twenty feet high, with
the butt end firmly planted in the
ground. E. (laylord writes in relation
to capturing owls : When I suspect the
owls are about to commence their mis
chief I get a stick suitable for the place,
and fasten a email steel trap on the top,
and set it ap some three or four feet
above. If an owl comes anywhere near,
he will be very sure to settle down in
the trap with as calm and as graceful an
air as an owl can put on. This is a
trait in the owl quite peculiar to him
self. He seldom pounces on his victim
the first thing, like other birds of prey,
but first comes slowly along, and settles
down on some conspicuous site near the
victims, and takes a very calm and cool
survey of all the surroundings. As soon
as all things appear to him to be favor
able, he quetly lets himself down
among the fowls, hoping to induce some
of their uumber to fly off or drop down
from the roost, when he, quick as
thought, embraces the opportunity to
swoop down and carry off the fowl. I
used to fasten the trap with a staple, on
top of the stick, but I fin-l this gives
them a much better chance to tear them
selves out of the trap. Now, I fasten it
slightly on top and firmly to the stick,
some two feet below the trap, with s
chain or cord.
How It POT* to KOTO <;-od Cow*.
I herewith send you, writes a cor
respondent of the Vermont Farmer, a
statement of the income of eight Jersey
cows for the year ending January, 1867:
Twenty-five hundred and sixty-six
pounds eleven ounces of butter
made and sold at forty cents per
Pound #1,026.67
Cream sold 2.00
Eight calves (6 heifers) raised 185.00
Ten pigs raised and fatted on sour
milk and twenty-five bushels of
meal 207.50
„ Total #1,421.17
Lees twenty-five bushels of meal 25 00
Total #1.396.17
My cows are full-blooded Jerseys
and three grades. I feed meal all the
time they are giving milk. In the
summer they have two quarts of oorn
and-oob meal per day. Fall and winter,
three quarts, one-half oorn-and-oob meal,
one-half bran. We never have any soft
butter in warm weather. I feed no
roots of any kind, nothing but meal and
all the good, early-cut hay they will eat

P. T. Quin, in his work entitled
"Gardening for Profit," says a certain
German leas- 1 twelve acres of land near
Jersey City for ten years, at SIOO per
acre. It wn heavy, wet land, and after
heavy manuring for three years he could
only make a living. Some of his neigh
lorß, better posted, told him he would
have to underilrain it. As his lease had
only seven years to run, he was afraid it
would not pay; bnt as the only alterna
tive he took the advice. It took S6O per
acre, only one-half of what he had paid
for manure yearly. The result was at
the end of his lease he paid $12,000 for
the land and owned it.
"A Little Mare drupe."
Not only farmers, and those upon
large lots, but even residents upon con
tracted city lots, should plant grape
vines, for fiom no species of fruit can
so much be produced upon a given area
of ground apace. Planted along on the
south or east side of the fenoe bounding
the inclosure, they can be trained up on
trellises to qnite a height, if desirable,
and the amount of most delicious fruit
that an be grown upoD a well managed
gra) ovine, of the right variety, is per
fectly astonishing to those who have had
no experience in that way.
This is the season of the year when a
man wonders whether he will have his
hair cut or wait till he won't catch oold.
Indian Traditions.
The Indian (Osage Agency) Herald
say* : The tradition of the first landing
of Indiana in the new world lias beeu
repeated to chosen braves w and over
from one nwDeration to another, and to
thia day the Osages hare what ia aup
poaed to lie tn arly the original language
of their uctdon. They claim that
their progenitors came in the ark or
boat, and while in the vessel the Grest
Spirit came and rented upon one of their
number and told him to aeleet six others
to assist him in governing the nation ;
hence the origiu of the seven original
t>anda of the tnlx'. The Spirit, while lu
conversation with this favorite one,
directed him to oommunioste whatever
inatnictiona he received for his jssiple
through his chosen assistant*, and to
tills day the name of the oue upon
whom the Spirit rested signifies one
who talks with God. His lodge is a
sanctuary for any criminal who may flee
from inatioe or vengeance, ami he ranks
with the highest chief in tiie tribe. Be
fore they came in content with white
people they lived iu the enjoyment of
poaee and happiness, lint they are now
realising tliat white people art' as
numerous as "leaves in the forest," ami
that they only constitute a remnant of
this once powerful and warlike tribe,
ami are at the merey of the while race
and liable to be driven backward step
bv step iuto the waters of the oeeau.
Their religion tends to given them a
gloomy and melancholy cast of charac
ter, and among other tilings they believe
that the spirit of the departed hovers iu
anguish around them until a scalp is
taken to aooumpany it to the ludian't
last resting plao, the great hunting
ground, where the spirit of a slam
enemy serves him in the most servile
offices throughout eternity. For this
purpose, though milch has been said and
written about the civilisation of the
Osage*, they yet organise mourning
ywrties and go "upon the warpath when
otherwise they are peaceable.
Though at first tLought it may strike
the minds of our readers as almost in
credible, there are Masons among
Osage*. They were probably admitted
to the secrets, nUs and privileges of
this ancient institution by Uie French iu
early days, thev being the first whites
with whom they met. They retain a
part of the workings of the craft to this
day. Colonel J. M. Ihatt, a licensed
trader for the tribe at this agency, who
is a gentleman of culture and large ex
perience, and an honored member of the
Oommaudery, when alone on one occa
sion with s more than ordinarily iutolli
gent Osage, found, upon strict trial,
though the Indian could not speak a
word of our Language, that he was a
Master Mason who prided himself in the
mysteries of the order.
Their so-called " medicine work " is
simply the performance of a religious
ceremony in which is introduced all the
forms derived from Masonry, tradition
and other sources. There are grades in
rank, or degrees, as In Masonry, and
the ceremonies of introduction and ad
vancement to the higher degrees are as
elaborate and impressive as any in the
world.
Fashion Notes.
Fiat mother of pearl and Japanese
figured buttons are furnished for black
cashmere and Sicilieune polonaises.
The newest thing in fashious are
chamois leather latsques and aprons in
their natural buff color, profusely em
broidered with gay colored silks.
For general use the parasol in greatest
demand is made of black twilled silk,
lined with white, pinked out in deep
scollops round the edge, and finished
with frills of black thread lace. The
handles are plain sticks of ebony, inlaid
with tortoise shell and gold or silver.
For mourning there are black parasols
covered with crape and having sticks of
unpolished ebony.
Cachemire is the name of a fabric
which has lately grown popular. It is
made of fine wool mixed with silk; the
colore are soft and harmonious, and the
patterns are those usually seen on East
em shawls.
A popular garniture for the new black
grenadine polonaises is perpendicular
rows of inch-wide gros grain ribbon
placed on in clusters of three or four
down the middle of the back and on
each front, and stopped at intervals to
fall over in loops.
The beet gloves come without orna
mental stitching, and are welted with
white round the wrists.
A small screen of either white or black
silk, nchiy embroidered, and with an
ivory handle, is the approved parasol
for driving in an open carriage.
The new kid gloves show extreme
shades of color—light tints for dressy
wear and dark ones for general occa
sions. For visiting and carriage wear
cream kid will predominate, an it can be
worn with dresses of any shade.
A carriage dress and mantle by Worth,
made of black satin and "faille, is
trimmed with the new bronze beads.
A new model for black silk dresses
gi res the back cut as a polonaise, with a
train and an elongated waist, while the
front is a bodice with a basque.
Among the celebrate! modistes of
Paris it Is found that Worth's costumes
are notable for their quaintntws and
originality; Pingat'a for their rich trim
mings and admirable disposition of
them; Rodriqoe's for their adaption of
the most proncmee styles allowable with
good taste, a id Hentenaa's for their
graceful drapeiy.

Border Atrocities,
Tho Leavenworth (Kan.) Time* says :
The Pneblo Chieftain gives the particu
lars of the lynching of two borse
thieves near Dodge City, on the Atchi
son, Topeka and Santa Fe railroad. The
two men were taken by a mob to a
patch of woods on Saw Log creek. They
were blindfolded, their arms pinioned,
and placed in the center of a circle.
Then eDe of the "vigilante" pulled a
testament from one pocket and a bottle
of whisky from the other, and exclaim
ing : "H- re, boys, is peace for the dead
and consolation for the living," pro
ceeded to read a chanter, while the tat
tle was passed from mouth to mouth,
until its contents were exhausted. At
the conclusion of this ceremony the
thieves were stretched up to the limb of
a cottonwood tree, face to face, their
feet almost touching the ground. Both
were buried on the spot, in a shallow
trench, and then tho avengers returned
to town. The names of the unfortunates
are Cole and Callahan. The father of
the latter is a minister at Topeka.
Severe Punishment.
A man named Charles Taylor was re
cently convicted, in England, of sending
a tbreateniug letter. The judge before
whom he was tried, in passim? sentence,
commented with severity on the offense,
and condemned the prisoner to penal
servitude for life. Just one hundred
years ago, one Archibald Girdwood was
convicted at the Old Bailey, in London,
of sending a threatening letter, and he
suffered a Htill more severe punishment;
for after an appeal, in vain, on some law
points, to all the judgee, he was exe
cuted.
Canine Sagacity.
A gentleman of wealth and position in
London had, some years ago, a country
: house and farm sbout sixty miles from the
metropolis. At this country residence
he kept a numtwr of dogs, and among
i them a very large mastiff and a Hootch
i terrier; an>{ at the close of one of hia
summer residouoes in tho country, he re
solved to bring thia terrier with bun to
Londoti for the winter season. There
lieiug no railway to that particular part
of the couutry, the dog traveled with
the aervatits iu a post carriage, and on
his arrival at the town house was brought
out to the stable, where a large New
fouLdland il>*g was kept as a astchihig.
This latter individual looked with any
thing but pleasure 011 the arrival of the
little intruder from the couutry; and
consequently the Sooth terrier liad not
IWu very long in hi* new home when
this canine master of the stable attacked
him, and, 111 the laugusge of human t>c
tugs, gave him a sound thrashing. The
little animal oould, of course, never
hope by himself to chastise his host for
tins inhospitable welcome, but he deter
mined that by some agency chastise
meut should come. Accordingly, be
lay very quiet that night in a remote
iviruer of the stable, but when meriting
hail fully shone forth, he was nowhere
to le found. Heoreli was made for him,
as the phrase says, high and low, but
without aueisw*, and the conclusion re
luctautly arrived at was that he hat lieeu
stolen. On the third morning after his
disappearance, however, he again allowed
himself in Loudon, but this time not
alone; for, to the amaaemout of every
oue, he entered the stable accomiwtuicd
by the big mastiff from Kent. This great
brute had no sooner arrived than lie ilew
at the Newfoundland dog. who hal so
bally treated his little terrier friend,
and a severe contest ensued, which the
little terrier himself, seated at a short
distance, viewed with the utmost dignity
and satisfaction. The result of the lat
tie was, tliat the uiaatitY come off the
conqueror, and gave his opponent a tre
j meudous tieating. When lie hal quite
satisfied lumself as to the result, ttia
great avenger from Kent scarcely waited
to receive the recognition of Ins master,
who hal been sent for immediately on
the dog's arrival, but at occe marched
out of the stable, to the door of which
, the little terrier aooompauied him, and
was seen no more. Some few ilays
afterward, however, the gentleman re
ceived a letter from his steward iu the
country informing him of the sudden
appearance of the terrier there, and his
as sudden disappearance along with the
large mastiff ; and stating that the latter
hal reuiaiued away three or fonr dava,
during which they hal searched iu vain
for him, but hal just then returned
home again. It then, of course, liecame
quite clear that the little dog, finding
himself unable to punish the towu bully,
had thought of his " big brother " in the
country, had traveled over sixty miles
which separated them, in order to gain
his assistance, and hal reoonuted to him
his grievance; it was plain also that the
mastiff hal oouacuted to come and
avenge his old friend, hal traveled with
him to London, and having fulfilled his
E rumi.se, had returned home, leaving the
ttle fellow free from annoyance for the
future.
Subsidiaty Siber Coin.
Mr. Randall, of Pennsylvania, intro
duced tho following bill in the United
States House:
Section 1. In addition to the amount
of subsidiary coin authorized bv law to
bo issued in redemption of fractional
currency, it shall be lawful to manufac
ture at the several mints and issue
through the treasury and its several
offices such Coin to the amount of $20,-
000,000.
Sze. '2. That the silver bullion re
quired far this purpose shall be pur
chased from time to time at market
value by the secretary of the treasury
with any legal tender noU* in the treas
ury not otherwise appropriated, and the
resulting coin may U< issued in the or
dinary disbursement* of the treasury, ur
in exchange for legal tender note* at
par; but no pnrchase of bullion sliall be
made under this act when the market
raU for the same shall be such as will
not admit of its coinage and issue or ex
change as herein provided without loss
to the treasury, and any gain or seigni
orage arising from this coinage shall be
accounted for and paid into the treasury
as provided under existing laws relative
to the subsidiary coiuage.
SEC. 8. That the trade dollar shall not
hereafter lie a legal Under, and the sec
retary of the treasury is hereby author
iaed to limit from tiiae to time the coin
age thereof to sneh an amount as he may
deem sufficient to meet the export de
mand for the same.
Massachusetts Sliver Mines.
The Cliipuian mine at Newbtiryport,
Maw., about which BO much finis was
made a year or two ago, is progressing
quietly, but very hopefully. The shaft
is ironk 185 feet and several "drifts"
or galleries run off ut various depths,
the longest being fivo hundred feet, at
a depth of thirty-seven feet from the
surface, and the" next 190 feet, at the
one-hundred foot level. From one and
one half to four tons are taken out daily,
worth about SIOO per ton net. The mine
is managed skillfully and economically,
and realized in its first year about $24,000
net profit. This gives great encourage
ment to its owners, as the indications all
favor a constant increase of productive
ness as lower depths are reached. Ho
far, it is stated, the mine has produced
more than anv mine on the famons Com
atock lode at Virginia City at the same
depth. The Gould and Curry, now the
most famous mine in the world, yielded
in its first three yearn, 1859, '6O, 'CI, a
total of only $22,400, or less than the
Clupman has yielded in its first year.
In 1862 Gonld aud Curry yielded $44,-
000, and in 1863 $858,000, and the yield
has con tinned to increase enormously
with the increase of depth. This fact is
very inspiring to the Chipman operators,
who believe the Newburyport vein is
equally susceptible of development, and
are pushing things to reach a depth of
five hundred feet this year. New con
centrating works are being pnt up aud
will be run night aud dny when com
pleted.
How he Figured.
Mr. James Lick, the California phil
anthropist, has the reputation of driv
ing a close l>argau. The following
anecdote is told of him : When he was
engaged in grading his grounds at Alviso
he employed a largo number of horses
and carts. Having need of another
horse, he sent his nephew to hiro one of
a neighbor, agreeing to pay $1 a day
for its use. In a few days lie sent to
inquire the price of the horse, which
the owner placed at $l5O. No answ r
was returned, and aftei some months
Mr. Lick sent for his neighbor to come
over and ho wonld pay him for his horse.
Knowing his reputation for close cal
culation in money matters, Mr. E. ex
pected to receive only the $l5O ; bnt on
presenting himself, Mr. Lick referred
to his Itook, and, finding that he had
had the horse 145 days, handed over
$295, with the dry remark : " I believe
it wonld hnve been as well for me to
have bought that animal fivo months
ago."
Vegetable Physiology.
No one probably in those days favors
a very old notion in vegetable physi
ology— that thorn aro special vessels for
carrying tho nap up to tho leaves and
othorn for bringing them down again;
for it is tolerably well known by all who
have tried to raise plauts from "Blips*'
that tho cuttings grow just as well if
planted iqwide dowu OH if not in the di
rection they grew on the tree. If there
are any left, the experience of an Eng
lish gardner, named liochford, described
in recent horticultural papers, should be
enough. He grows grapea under glass,
and believing that two sets of roots
would be better than one, he bent the
lop of a long cane into the ground,
forming a large arch, and the top rooted.
Afterward ho cut the arch asunder in the
middle, so that half the cane might be
add to stand on its head. It continued
year after year to grow and bear, just as
well as the other half which grew in the
natural way.

Crushed by * ( ross-Klre.
Among some graphic details of hos
pital scenes in lht'4, liachel Hoilius
give* tbe following :
The situation of one poor man was
moat touching. < hxvurioually during the
evening I had seen, in the upper part of
the want, a miserable arm raised in the
air, with a bandage dangling from a
wounded hand ; the expression of agony
in the movement of that poor hand anil
arm rut me to the heart, and, though
half afraid of intruding, I went to the
suffering man, for it was impossible to
stay away, He told mo that bo bad
boon under a cross fire. On his right
arm one ball had entered the front part
of tho forearm abont an inch below the
elbow, coming out at the shoulder ; an
other entered the back {tart of the fore
arm about an inch above tho wrist joint,
and escaped at tho hack of the hand :
anil another crushed the second joint of
the forefinger. On his left arm, one
liall entered tho forearm just above the
wrist, and was cut out at the ellxiw. A
liall fractured his right thiglu Another
entered his right ankle joint, and came
ont at the top of the foot, lite bottom
of the foot was crushed by a shell,
making in all eleven different wounds.
Finding that be would like to listen, 1
obtained a candle and read to him a few
versos from tho Bible and one of Byle's
hymns. Tho sound of my voioo seemed
to soothe him for a little while, then he
would raiso his arm again, and the
1 windage on his poor, wounded hand
waved like a signal of distress, as it wan.
He know ho could not live, and did not
like to be left alone ; so, while Albert
slept, I very gladly sat by him, reading
aloud, when he seemed to enjoy it
Toward morning I went to him for the
last time, and when the sun arose his
plaoe was vacant. lam not sorry that I
remained in the hospital through the
night, for it is a groat privilege to lie
allowed to do evon as little as I was able
to do for one abont to give up his life.
Hew Much Butter We Make and Con
same.
Htatistics place tho number of milch
cows in the United 9fates at 13,000,000,
and credit them with a product of, in
round unml>ers, 1,400,000,000 pounds of
butter. They were arrived at first by
an estimate made by an old and vary in
telligent butter merchant, who has
given much thought and caieful study
to the subject, and whose investigations
led to the following calculation : That
of onr population, 5,000,000 would con
sume one pound of butter each per
week; 10,000 would consume three
quarters of a pound each; 10,000 would
consumo one half a pound each, and
10,000 would consume one-quarter of a
pound each, making a total consumption
af 1,040,000,000 by 35,000,000 people.
This, it is calculated, is for table use
alone, undone third is added for culinary
purposes, giving an aggregate consump
tion of nearly 1,400,000,000 pounds,
the difference itoing made up by tho ex
ports.
Amusing Thenisclvc*.
A magazine writer, telling us about
the theater in the olden time, relates tho
following incident:
On thone benefit nights the strange
occupants of the front neat of the pit
had an original method of making room
for. friend who happened to be belated.
He was passed clean oyer the head * of
the pittites until he reached the middle
of the row where hia chimin were Heated.
Then he dropped down in the center,
and his friends squeezed outward to
make room for him, thus unseating the
"end men." Tho displaced in their
turn would go to the buck of the pit,
mount a bench, and getting its occu
pants to give them a good "send-off,"
throw themselves forward on tho heads
of those in front. It was the interest of
these to help them on, and they did so
with a wilL Thus the end men were
again unseated, and thus the process
was kept up ad libitum lietween tho
acts.

Sn|ierior lo Other*.
Neither of the grout world's fair* held
in past year* in Europe ha* equaled in

interest the Centennial Exhibition at
Philadelphia, a correspondent write*.
At Pari*, in 1867, there wan a more com
pact ami systematic, and at Vienna, in
1873, the Oriental nation* were more
fully represented; but the American
fair possesses many point* of superiority
over these exhibition*. It show* the
natural product*, the industries, the in
veution*, and the art* of the Western
hemisphere a* they were never ahown
before, and bring* them for the first
time in their fullness and perfection in
contrast iritli thoee of the old world. Ii
the department of machinery it i* in
eomparably dtiperior to all it* prede

A Murderous Klot.
Salonica, the Tlxwsalonica of ancient

and painful interest on account of a
frightful and murderous riot, in which
a 1 trgo number of live* were lost. The
hostility l>etw<>eii Christian*and Moslems
ha* always been so bitter that a slight
disturbance might at any time preci
pitate great disorder. The alleged
proselyting of a Christian girl by the
Mohammedan* has in thin instance fired
the train ; and, iu a riot which followed
the attempt of the girl's friends to take
her forcibly from the Turks, the French
and the (termnn consul* were assansi
tutted. The resident Turkish authorities
appear to have regarded this affair with
their usual stolidity, but the Sublime
Porto ha* ordered that the assassins
shall IN) fouud and dealt with as they
merit. Tho French government has
taken stops to present a formidable
naval force at the |>ort of Halouioa.
