Keeping Grapes. —lnto the bottom of
a small keg or nail cask put a layer of
grape leaves fresh from the vines. On
these carefully place a layer of sound, ripe,
dry grapes, then leaves and grapes in alter
nate layers, till the keg is full. Head up
the cask, and bury it in some well drained
ground, below the depth of the frost.
Like other things excluded from the light
and air, they will change rapidly on ex
posure, and hence, when a keg is opened
and they are found good, use them freely.
Preventing the Fracture of Glass Chim
neys. —The glass chimneys which are now
in such extensive use, not only for oil lamps,
but also for the burners of oil and ceal gas,
vary frequently break, and notcnly expose
to danger those who are ne~r them, but
occasionally very great expense and incon
venience, particularly those who are resi
dent in the country. The breaking of
these glasses very often arises from knots
in the glass, where it is less perfectly an
nealed, and also from an inequality of thick
ness at their lower end, which prevents
them from expanding uniformly by heat.
The evil arising from inequality of thick
ness may be cured by making a cut with a
diamond in the bottom of the tube.
Sweet Pickled Quinces. —The most com
mon uses of quinces is as sweet preserves.
Tbey also answer a good purpose when
sliced up and mixed in small quantities
with apple sauce, giving the whole a pleas
ant, aromatic flavor. They make a good
pickle, also. Boil in vinegar with sugar,
and add cloves, cinnamon, &c., to suit the
taste. The best way is to pare and quarter
them and cut out the cores. Boil 10
pounds of fruit, adding 5 pounds of sugar,
and about 4 pints of vinegar, one ounce of
stick cinnamon, and 1£ ounce of cloves.
When well boiled, put in a jar and pour
over the syrup.

Are curing the Sick to an extent never
before known of any Medicine.
INVALIDS, READ AND JUDGE FOR YOURSELVES.
lUI.ES HAUEL, Eq., the well known perfumer, of
Chestnut Street, Philadelphia, whose choice products
are u>umi at almost every toilet, eaye:
" I am happy to say of your Cstkistic Pitta, that I
have found them a better family medicine, for common
nee, than any other within my knowledge. Many of my
friends bove realized marked benefits from them, and co
ineide with me in believing that they possess extraordinary
virtues for driving out diseases and curing the sick. They
are not only effectual, but safe and pleasant to be taken
qualities wbich must make them valued by the public,
when they are known."
The venerable Chancellor WARDLAW writes from BaD
timore, 15th April, 1854:
' fa. J. C. A rem Sir: f have taken your Pills with
great laniefit, for the listleesueas, languor, loes of appetite,
arid Bilious headache, which has of late years overtaken
me in the spring. A few doses of your Pills cured me. I
have iii-ed your Cherry Pectoral many years in my family
for coughs and colds with unfailing success. You make
medicines which cure i and 1 feel it a pleasure to commend
you for the good you have done and are doing."

of your medicines, having derived very material
benefit frvn the use of both your Pectoral and Cathartic
hill.. 1 ani never without them in my family, nor ehall 1
ever consent to l, while my means will procure them."
The widely renowned 8. 8. BTEVENS, U. D.,of Wwt
worth, N. H., writes:
" Having u*ed your Csvh.stic Pinna in my practice, 1
certify from ei|n*nca that thev are en invaluable purge
rive. In cases of disordered functions of the liver, causing
headache, indigestion, costivenrw, and the great variety
ol diseases that follow, they are a surer remedy than any
other. In aii cases where a purgative remedy is required,
I confidently recommend these Pit's to tits public, as
superior to sny other I have ever found. They are sure
in their operstion, end perfectly safe qualities which
make them an invaluable article for public use. 1 have
for many years known your Cherry Federal M the bast
Cou-h medicine in th world : and these Pills are in no
wise inferior to that admirable preparation for the treat

Wish what feelings at rejoicing 1 write can only be
imagined w lien you realize what 1 have cufiered, and bow

" I,"ever until now have I ueeo Drte from this loathsome
disease in some shape. At times it attacked my eyes, and
made me almost blind, besides the unendurable pain ; at
ethers i: settled in the calp of my head, and destroyed my
hair, and fctw kept me partly b*dd all my days : sometimes
it came out in . y face, and kept it for mouths a rsw sore.

vere and dangerous cough, by your CHl:#** PBCTOVAL,
and since then lias enjoyed perfect health. lly children
have several times been cured from attacks of the Influ
enza and Croup by it. it is an invaluable remedy for

cured me from e dyspepsia and cottVHie->, which has
grown upon me Ibr some years,— inuecd, this cure is

PATENT
COAL OIL GREASE,
Grease is made from COAL OIL,
and has been found by repeated tests,
to be the most economical, and at the
same time the best lubricator for Mill
Gearing, Stages, Wagons, Curls, Carriages,
Vehicles of all kinds, and all heavy bearings,
keeping the axles always cool, ami not requir
ing them to be looked alter for weeks. It lots
been tested on railroad care, and with um>
soaking of the waste it has run, with the curs,
20,000 milee ! All railroad, omnibus, livery
stable and Express companies that have tried!
it pronounce it the nt pltu ultra.
It combines the body and fluidity of faffow,
beeswax and tar, and unlike general lubrica
tors, will not run off, it being warranted tu
stand any temperature.
I have it in boxes 2$ to 10 lbs. Also keg§
and barrels from 30 to 400 lbs, for general,
use and sale. The boxes are more prefera
ble; they are 6 inches in diameter by inches
deep, and bold 2J lbs net; the boxes are clean,
and hardly a carman, teamster, expressman,
miller or farmer, that would not purchasa
one box for trial. F. G. FRANCISCUS.

Uncle Sam and Family.
Yankee Freedom is a lad
Aod Union is bis sister;
Uncle Sam he is their dad
Aod he'll give secesh a twister.
For they said Mrs. Sam she died—
We always called her virtue—
But you, Secesh, indeed have lied.
And now he's going to birch you.
Yankee and sister, too,
Are bound on retribution;
For out mother they said they knew
Died of broken Constitution.
But Yankee Freedom will now show
Secesh to have been mistaken
Though of necessity he's their foe
Until again they right awaken.
Then secesh the tune will find
Was turned as short as this ;
While turning to the Coffee Pot Sign.

For your family needs, may be,
A little Tin Ware Solace;
