Court adjourned.
The Grand Jury made the following
report:
LANCASTER, August 23, ISO 7.
'lb the Honorable the court of Quarter &.9-
BiOMS of Lancaster County:
The Grand Inquest of Lancaster County
for August Sessions, do respectfully report
that they have had 101 cases presented to
them for action by the District Attorney;
and of these they have returned 70 as true
bills, and ignored 2S. In examining these
bills, they were struck with too trivial na
ture of - many of the complaints made,
through which, in too many instances, the
county is put to needless expense.
The :mention of the Grand Jury having
been ~ a lled to the condition of the roof,
ceiling and walls of the Court House, with
the view of having the Injuries repaired,
and if possible make the whole building
water-tight, they would report that they
carefully examined the whole edifice, and
while not prepared- to point out fully the
defects in structure and bail workmanship
evident in some portions of the roof, they
are convinced that the roof cannot be made
water proof for any length of tune, and the
ceiling and walls preserved front injury
and defacement, without removing the
tower from its present position, and having
it built upon one of the walls for support
mid firmness. Placed as it is upon the
girders and rafters, it is swayed and ruched
inure or less by the wind, Inv which the roof
is sorely strained, the sheeting parted, and
the joints in manv places opened. They
would recommend, therefore, that some
means be promptly devised, by which the
further injury and defacement of the build
ing will be prevented, consistent With
economy and durability.
They also visited the Coulity Alms-house,
under the able management of Mr. Samuel
Spiehlman, time Hospital and the Prison,
and were much gratified at the evidences of
thrift, cleanliness and good management
perceptible in each building. The new
building at the Hospital lately finished and
but recently occupied, while the old hospi
tal budding is being repaired and refined,
is admirably adapted and arranged for the
and management of its most un
16i-tun:de inmates. The different wings and
wards, into which it is divided, afford the
Superintendent, Mu. J. 1). Steinhiser, every
desirable opportunity to ellieiently manage
and properly conduct the institution. The
Jury were highly gratified at the manifest
evidences 01111 c efficiency and thoroughness
with which this department of the public
institutions are managed. In the Prison,
under the able management of the keeper.
Air. Levi Sensenig, the J
that all the details and duties were faith
fully performed.
To the Court, tho Sherilr, the DiStrict At
tornep and the various officials, the jutsc
would return their acl:nowledginents for
kindness and fiIVOI'S.

REPAIR AND IMPROVEM ENT OF SAINT
:NI tY'A CATHOLIC CH 1:10 . 11.-St. Alary's
Catholic Church, of this city, has been un
dergoing a thorough course of repairs and
improvements. The old roof was very 1101,
and 1101 being constructed tin proper aTrehi
tectural principles, its weight gradually
pressed Ulu walls apart, threatening to im
pair their stability. This rendered a new
roof necessary. The ono which is now be-
ing past (ti
t is finely proportioned, being
some I veil ty•odd feet higher than the old
one, giving a height or elevation, from the
floor to the apex of the gothic ceiling inside,
of seventy instead of fifty feet. The space
between the walls is sixty feet in the clear,
and to construct a roof with gothic arch
spanning that breadth of space requires the
collection of an amount of material which,
with rafters of ordinary construction, would
crush out very strong walls. This difficul
ty has been completely obviated by thouse
1 4
of rat! ers framed after the plan adopted by
the b st church architects, the design hav
ing be n prepared by Mr. Edwin F. Durang
of Phillldelphia. They ;Ire very heavy, but
are so „braced and poised as to bind the
walls together rather than to press them
apart. Even to an uninstructed Up', flair
adaptation to the purpose they are intended
to serve is apparent. Mr. Daniel McLaugh
lin, under whose supervision the work has
been done,is a skilful and intelligent build
er, and the details of Mr. Durang's phut
have been so far most faithfully carried out.
Thu gables have of course been consider
ably elevated, and this has given an oppor
tunity to tastefully adorn the front of the
church. A most elegant design has been
prepared, and the representation of what it
would be when completed was shown to tts
by Mr. McLaughlin. There are to be two
finely proportioned and elaborately adorned
towers, one on each corner of the front, ris
ing to a proper height above the roof of the
building. These we understand will not be
finished at present. Between them, how
ever, will be completed a corniced gable,
which, being surmounted by a large and
exquisitely carved cross, will present a
most attractive trout. It is a pity the whole
work can not be at once pttt through. The
sanctuary floor is to be raised and a new
altar erected. When the proposed repairs
and improvements are completed, the St.
Mary's Catholic Church of this city will
not be surpassed in beauty or commodious-
ness by any ehureh editcce in the interior
or Pennsylvania. The Right Reverend
Father, Bernard Keenan, has been pastor
of this congregation for upwards of forty
years, and we are glad to know that hi) is
recovering front a rather severe illness.
We hope he may not only live toisee his
church completely repaired and beautified,
but that he may be spared for years to
a community in which he is so universally
loved and respected.

PosT Orrice AT Cnittuus,—The Colum
bia Herald calls attention to the fact that
there is no post office at Chiques. It is
smart manufacturing town about two
miles and a half north west of Columbia
on the Pennsylgania Railroad, has a flour
ing mill, distillery, steam saw mill, rolling
mill, seven furnaces, which turn out tioo
tons of pig iron per week, and shops to ac
commodate these establishments, and
and yet it has no post office. Tho Colum
bia post office is closed on Sunday, anti the
laborers at Chiques are forced to travel over
two miles In the evening after their work is
done, or to go without their letters and
papers. We have no doubt the Postmaster-
Uuneral would order the establishment of a
post elites at that point if- the case was
properly laid before him, The cost to the
government would be little or nothing and
the accommodation to the people great,
ANOTHER RAIN AND FLOOD.-011 Wed
nesday night last it commenced to rain again
at first with the gentle dropping of a pleas
ant summer shower, but as the night deep
ened the fall of water increased until about
9a , o'clock the windows of heaven were
again opened, and for several hours a flood
descended upon the earth. It rained as
hard for several hours together last night
as it did at any period of the storm last
week. Such being the case, of course there
was considerable trouble and some loss oc
casioned by a repetition of the flood. The
rise in the waters was general.
In West King street the sewer was stop
ped up by some coal oil barrels which were
floated into it, and the water being dammed
considerable damage was done in the
neighborhood of Mulberry street.
In the house occupied by Mr. Stoner, in
West King, the water rose in a very short
time to a height of ten feet above the level
of the street, coming up into the lower story
and floating the furniture about. The lot in
the rear of the first house above Mulberry
presented a strange spectacle. A ravine some
eight feet deep was torn out across the en
tire lot, while in the centre a deep circular
hole, some twenty feet in circumference had
been excavated by the whirling flood. In the
lot next to this Mrs. Snyder, a poor widow
woman lives, with a large family of chil
dren. During the continuance of the storm
and while the water was raising she had her
children taken up into Orange street. In
the lot she had two hogs in a pen, one of
them escaped by swimming, the other being
larger and:lat was drowned. A horse in the
stable was rocued with considerable diffi
culty. The stable and slaughter house of
John Derr were flooded, and in fact all the
lots, cellars and some of the lower stories of
the houses in that neighborhood were under
water.
The ware-room of Wm. Harman, chair
manufacturer, was flooded and damage
done to the extent of two hundred-dollars.
Mr. Philip Stoner had a lot of tobacco
damaged to the amount of over one hun
dred dollars. Mrs. Bartram Shaffer's cel-
lur which had always been perfectly dry,
was filled with water and mud to the height
of two feet, the water forcing its Way s up
irough the drain. Mrs. Chamberlain's
-dlar was tilled, and in fact all in the neigh
borhood:
Mrs. Winauer, who has been confined to
bed since January last, had to be carried to
•t place of safety from her residence on the
!orner of the alley running from Charlotte
to Mulberry street. The water had risen
to her bed before she was removed.
-Dr. J. \V. Ureen, who manufactures
patent medicine, had a lot of drugs and
glassware destroyed in Ids cellar. His loss
is estimated
The people all along the course of the
flood lost various articles of furniture by
havilig them swept off and otherwise dam
aged by the flood.
The sewer in the vicinity of Charlotte and
West King street which was damaged
somewhat by the flood of last week, has
been still more seriously impaired.
lit West Orange street between Charlotte
tint Mary considerable damage was done,
he water rushing through in a torrent,
caring up the street, and inflicting other
'njuries to properly in its course.
The Gas Works were flooded, there being
ietween two and three feet of water in the
purifying house.
Thu Trinity , Lutheran Church Sunday
School building on Duke street was f)noded,
Lind the Carriage Shops of S. 73. Cox Oc Co.,
were partly under water.
The sewer at the corn. , r ol Queen
and streets, which was broken by the
flood of last week has been still more
extensively broken.
There was a landslide on the Columbia
branch of the Penn'a Railroad. The road
was said to be under water from the Cunnel
p to Chiques
News ffoin the . railroads was to the
effect that two culverts on the Pen n'a Rail
road, be worn Lancaster and Columbia,
were to hay° been washed away, and the
embankment oC the bridge over the Little
Conestoga to have given way,.
On the - Columbia and Reading road the
track was covered with earth by the
washing of the water in niany places.
I•'rout I'riday'B
T F; I'l.oo D.- The heavy ruin which
visited this section on Wednesday night
seems to have spent force on a compara
tively narrow strip of territory. It only
ex tendod a few miles east and west of Lan-
:;11 , 1 ,! , p , ars have swept on
ward in a straight line taking a south
eastern direction. The Philadelphia papers
of this morning have no notice or it what
ever. No Baltimore papers have reached
us, owing we suppose to the damage to the
Northern Central Railroad between 'the
town of York and that city. We append
such further reports as wo haq been
able to gather. Yesterday morning the
two mi idle a relies of the bridge on the
Harrisburg Turnpike across the Chiques
creek, about, ti miles from town, M 1 down.
What the loss is we have not heard. The
water in the Conestoga rose until late yes
terday :evening, and reached a greater
height than it did at the late flood; but,
durii ' , the night it subsided, and • is now
rapidly falling. We hear that a great deal
of (lain:lgo was done to the brick yards in
the western end of the city.
The York True Dentocrat says the rain
on Wednesday night was heavier than that
of last week. The Undorus creek was seve•
al feet above even the high intlrk it mule
week ago, and it presented a very wild
ppearanee, being covered with drift and
rubbish of every description. Among the
articles that came down the stream were
stacks of hay, portions of rooting, scant
ling, logs, and a number of hogsheads and
kegs, \v Inch mire supposed to have been
swept away from some distillery along the
course of the Witter.
The 1 larrisburg Telegraph says great
damage was done to the Northern Central
some places for a distance of about a thou
sand feet, and three bridges being destroyed
between that city and Baltimore. tip to
his morning at 11 o'clock, we hod received
m mails from Baltimore.
A gentleman who canto down from liar
.
risburg on a freight train by way of Column.
bia, infbruis us that he was detained in
Columbia last night some ce. wen hours,
white repairs were being made on the road.
The bridge this side of Columbia over
Striekler's Ron had the trustle work
carried !,,away, and a very.large force was
engaged in propping it up. There were
some 2.1 e freight ears, composing fifteen
separate trains, all lying over at that point.
The bridge was finally made passable
about midnight last night. All along the
road between Columbia and Lancaster a
large force of hands were at work on the
road, and the trains were seven hours in
running front Columbia to Lancaster. Be
tween Columbia and Barrisburg the dam
age to the road was trilling, the force of the
Hood seeming not extending far above
Columbia.
The dam at the mill of Geo. Levan, on
the Little Conestoga, was badly injured,
and some other property was taken away.
We hear that Messrs. C. It. and C. ./1.
I lerr had both of their darns injured and
that their loss is estimated at $2,001.
Messrs. Stoner and Stehmau, of Washing
ton borough, are severe losers by the late
flood, having had their dam, bridge and
other property taken away. Their loss is
estimated at $6,000.
There was a slight washing away of the
embankment at the Pennsylvania Railroad
bridge over the Conestoga.
The rosin try around New Holland was
completely inundated, causing an immense
amount of damage in that section of the
country.
The bridge et Eden, which had been ex
ensively used since the breaking or link-
y's, w . as inkvn away yesterday, causing
great inconvenience to parties traveling
that way, as they are now obliged to cross
at Witmer's Bridge, which is soverat miles
out of their road.
THE FLOOD.—The Columbia .S:in/ gives
the following account of dtunages caused in
that vicinity by the great flood of Thursday:
It rained incessantly al] night—indeed,
many persons say that they never saw it
rain faster. The streets were deluged, fill
ing cellars with water and doing consider
able damage. At the Washington House a
file engine was brought into requisition to
free the cellars of water. The Pennsylva
nia Central, Reading and Columbia, and
Northern Central Railroads were greatly
damaged ; so much so that travel was for a
time suspended. The Tide Water Canal is
so much injured that it is thought there
will be no more boatimr done on it this
season.
About thirty feet of an embankment on
the Pennsylvania Railroad, between Co
lumbia and Mountville, was washed away,
and travelers were in great tribulation in
consequence. Many left for Lancaster in
carriages. About three hundred men were
immediately set to work, and trains passed
over the road by evening, East and West.
A portion of the wall of the bridge at
Hershey's mill was carried away.
A frame bridge at Stehman's saw mill,
Manor, was swept away.
Also a stone arch bridge at Witmer's
mill entirely gone.
The turnpikes in many places are ob
structed by land-slides; some to the depth
of several feet, They are rapidly being re
paired by gangs of laborers.
The losses at Jacob Stehman's saw mill
are very heavy, consisting principally of
logs stored in the pond, and carried away
by the breaking of the dam.
The damages to the steam saw mill can
be easily repaired in a short time, which
will be done.
Henry Mellinger's smith shop, Manor—
noted for the manufacture of edge tools—
for which purpose water power was tised,
was entirely carried away ; no trace having
been left of either shop or tools. His loss
will be fully $2,000; while that of Messrs.
Stehman and Stoner will reach KOK .
The Mount Joy Hcrald says:
On Wednesday night the rain was ex
ceedingly heavy and swelled the streams so
as to wash away bridges, dams and other
improvements. tin the Little Chiques
nearly everything was swept away last
week so that we hear of no additional dam
age hero, but we aro informed Mr. 11.
Meckley's mill dam ia Mount Joy twp.,
was swept away,
The Wrightsville Stai• giyes the following
account of the flood on the York side of the
Susquehanna:
Owing to the continued and heavy fall of
rain on Wednesday night and Thursday
morning Crietz creek again took an upward
start, and exceeded the rise in the begin
ning of the week. The trestle work of
several of the railroad bridges was carried
away, also very many of the foot brides
crossing the creek at different points. The
mud machine and a portion of the timber
rafts belonging to the mills of Henry
James dr, Co.,;broke from their fastenings.
Much of the timber was, however, saved,
and the mud machine found a lodgment on
the dam.
No definite information as to extent of
injury and damage done to the canal by the
rains. We learn, however, of a very large
land-slide, below the stop-lock, also, of the
washing away of a culvert, and a break
near Sloat's mill in the five mile level.—
Various:estimates:have been made as to the
time it will take to repair the damages,
some fixing it at 3 and others at 6 weeks.
Up to the time of our going to press, we
have had no communication with York by
railroad, being caused by the partial de
struction of the masonry at one of the
bridges.
A CASE OF INFANTICIDE--CORONER'S
INQUEST.—Coroner Leonard held an in
quest last Sunday upon the body of the
infant child found on the banks of the Lit
tle Conestoga during the flood of last week.
Suspicious circumstances led to the belief
that it had been foully dealt with, and in
quiry was set on foot which resulted in a
second view of the body and an examina
tion of wit9esses which was had on Satur
day. Thecsarne jury summoned last
week beingh present, the clothes which
were upon the body of the child
when discovered were produced and
Mrs. Dean being sworn and examined
testified that she recognized the petticoat as
one she had made for the child. She made
this clothing when the child was three days
old. The name of the mother is Margaret
Lennings, her maiden name was Snyder.
Her husband left her the next morning
after marriage, and has not lived with her
since. The father of the child was Charles
Demorrow• She also testified to having
made a slip which was shown—recognized
it from a rent in the material of which it
was made. The child was born on Sunday
and was 11 days old when the mother lett
Mrs. McGlinn's.
Mrs. McGlinn beingsworn, said Margaret
lienniters or Snyder cause to her house just
before her confinement and asked to be al
lowed to stay. She at first refused, but
finally consented. She was delivered of a
male child. She staid until the child was
11 days old and then left. At one time the
mother gave the child live drops of lauda
num, retnnrking that she did not cure if she
gave it a bottle full. After Margaret left
Atile heard from her sister that she had left
liter child at the Poor Itouse. Mrs. Mailinn
identified the clothes. The child was per
fectly developed and healthy.
Miss Lannigan corroborated the state
'tient of the foregoing witnesses in regard
to the clothing.
The jury returned a verdict that the child
came to its death by violence at the hands
of its mother.
Margaret is supposed to have gone to
Philadelphia, and has not been arrested.
ENT MOLOGICAL—The I . olloWilliZ COlll
- front Mr. John M. Fridy to
Mr. S. S. Rathvon, and Mr. It's, reply in
regard to a very destructive insect found
on a pear tree in Mr. F's. orchard, has been
handed us for publication:
Mou:szTvILLE, Aug. 20, Di 67..
S. S. RATH C :—Enclosed volt will
lind something that I have taken from my
pear tree, which destroys the foliage as it
goes. Would you he kind enough and let
me know whether you are acquainted with
it, and to what extent they destroy. I have
taken thew all off the trees and have noticed
none since.
Respectfully yours,
Jon s M. FluDy
The above communication, together with
seven specimens of the larva of Emprelia
.stint tact, enclosed in a small box were sent
to ins by mail. These larva are found not
only on the pear trees, but also on the plum,
apple, and others of a like nature, as well
as on other kinds of vegetation, but they
have apparently a partiality for the pear.
I have never known them to occur in any
very great 'mothers at any time or place,
but if such should happen to be the case,
they have the capabilities of being very de
structive to the foliage of trees and plants.
At the end of the summer, or earlier, they
spin themselves up in a globular shaped
cocoon, about the size of a marrow-fat
pea, and: the next season come forth :a
small moth, with the body and forewings
of a uniform dark ferruginous color, with
two small sttbapical white spots on the
forewings, of the female, and in those of the
male, two additional ones near the base,
under the mediaro nerve. The hind wings
are a pale reddish brown, and the insect
wh en expanded measures, about au inch
and a quarter across. The lame are semi
cylindrical in form, and obliquely truncated
before and behind, with two posterior fleshy
horns, and two anterior ones of the same
size, with two smaller ones beneath them
back of the head. These horns are
supplied with spines, which produce
an exceeding painful sensation when they
come in contact with the back of the
hand, or any other soft pirrt of the
human body. The color of the larva is
a light brown, but between the postern)
and anterior horns there is a sus dle-shaped
patch of a lino bright green color, bordered
with white and having a large brown vel
vety spot in the centre. They are without
prolegs, and seem to glide over the surface
of the leaves, like a " marine ram" over the
surface of the water. Hand picking, cau
tiously executed, or a solution of tobacco,
strong lye, or whale oil soap, are effectual
remedies for their removal. I know of no
generally recognized English name for
them, and therefore we will have to be con
tent with its scientific name for the present.
P. S.—Ono of th• so larva , was covered
with the cocoons of a small parasitic fly
belonging to the order //)/incnoptera, which
is no doubt a check upon the rapid increase
of these insects.
FRESHNESS (WTI-1E COUNTRY.—The clays
of "the sole and yellow leaf" are here, but
the country around Lancaster looks as fresh
and green as in June. The over abundant
rains of August have started a most luxu
rious growth of grass, and even the trees
are without visible indications of the ap
proach of the end of summer. It has been
a remarkable season in this vicinity.
ConaEcTios.—ln our report of Monday
afternoon's Court proceedings, published in
Tuesday evening's issue, we were in error
in stating that John Brubaker "plead guilty
to two charges—fornication and bastardy."
It should have been, the jury returned a
verdict of guilty.
W.ll NEN' CASES.—In the case of Albert
l3onson, of Columbia, who was charged
with violating the revenue laws, the 'United
States District Attorney, at the session of
the District Court in Philadelphia, agreed
to enter a nol. pros. The other cases from
Lancaster county have not been sent to the
( :rand Jury yet. It is thought most of the
parties accused will escape without any
punishment, there not being proof of their
having committed any offense,
A MIRACLE !—WHISIVEN TURNED INTO
WATER.—One of our Distillers sold the other
day 50 barrels of whiskey at 85 cents a
gallon, tax to be paid by the purchaser.
The whiskey was sent to Baltimore and our
Distiller gave to Collector Wiley a trans
portation bond for its delivery there. When
it got into the bonded warehouse in Balti
ino re, Is wever, the Government luspe. tor
found that the barrels contained water
instead of whiskey. The Railroad Com
pany say they can prove that they received
whiskey here and delivered whiskey in
Baltimore. The transformation must there
fore have occurred in the passage of the
liquor from the freight depot in Baltimore
to the Bonded Warehouse in the seine place.
It is proper to add that the Distiller alluded
to is entirely acquitted by Collector Wiley
of any knowledge of the fraud, if fraud
there was, but that suspicion attaches to the
parties to whom the liquor was consigned.
NEW MONEY ORDER OFFICES.—The post
offices nt Litiz:andiMount Joy in this county
have been designated as money order offices.
It must be borne in mind that the money
order business of these two offices will not
commence until Monday, the oth of Septem
ber. Orders not exceeding $2O, ten cents;
over $2O, and not exceeding $5O, twenty-five
cents; no single order issued for; more than
$5O. Parties desiring to remit larger sums
must obtain additional money orders.

MISTAKE IN DATE.-A, mistake was
made in the date of the sale of the Real
Estate of Jacob Hoffman, of Caernarvon
township, advertised in this paper. The
snle occurs on the 7th, and not on the 17th
of September.
FARMS FOR SALE IN HUNTINGDON CO.—
We call especial attention to the advertise
ments of farms for sale in Huntingdon Co.
We aro assured that a great bargain is to ho
had in them. They are both excellent
properties. Parties In this county desiring
any further Information, would do well to
call at the Intelligencer office.
THE POTATO ROT,—The recent spell of
wet weather has injured the potato crop to
a very great extent, The rot has appeared
among the potatoes, and In some varieties
has already become quite destructive. A
great many of those freshly dug aro cover
ed with small white specks, and many of
them are quite rotten. In some patches
nine•teuths of the potatoes are thus affected.
CANNING Fauns.—The committee ap
pointed at the last meeting of the Lancaster
County Horticultural Society, to make a
report upon the subject cif canning fruits,
beg leave to offer the following:
It is but of late ye)srs that attempts to
preserve fruits for use after their season,
and so as to retain, in a great measure; their
natural fresh flavor, have been practiced in
many households throughout the land. We
look almost in vain for instructions on the
subject in books published:so long as 25
years ago, and it may therefore be supposed
there is something yet to learn before we
understand the best way of doing it. Many
housekeepers at present still have vague
notions upon the points which are essential
to success. To understand these more or
or-less perfectly, will be to avoid the loss
and chagrin of frequent failure.
The jars, inpopular use for the purpose,
are composed of various materials—tin,
earthenware, stoneware and glass. A lead
ing object of this report is to examinesome
of the merits and demerits of each. In
commerce, tin cans are extensively used,
principally, it would seem, because they
are strong and bear transportation for long
distance with little danger of being injur
ed. But the tin can is liable to serious
objections. One now before us, which con
tamed peaches for several months, is cor
roded entirely around its upper circumfer
ence on the inside, and is no longer fit for
use. The persons who partook of the
peaches it contained, of course, also
consumed the tin which bad been decom
posed. Dr. Pereira says "it appears that
acid, fatty, saline, and even albuminous
substances, may occasion colic and vomit
ing, by having remained for some time in
his tin vessels," and as all fruits usually
used for canning, contain either malic,
citric, tartaric, or (according to Ure) after
fermentation lactic acid, it would follow
that tin vessels can be used only by
running more or less risk of eating con
taminated food. Furthermore, if they are
to be closed by soldering on the lids,
closing and opening them is attended with
considerable inconvenience. Cherries,
strawberries and blackberries, become
discolored, acquire a bad taste, and prove
worthless if kept in them. Cans made of
earthenware and glazed, are liable to have
the glazing exfoliate on the inside. knocked
off on the outside, or to have imperfect
spots; and in either case the contents aro
subject to ooze through the jai. Through
these pores the air will enter, and the fruit
consequently indergoes fermentation. I[l
rare instances the glazing has dissolved,
and becoming mingled with the contents,
violent sickness has ensued. But they have
the merit of beim -, cheaper than any
of the other kinds' mentioned. Stone
ware jars are open to some extent
to the seine objections just noted with re
gard to the earthenware, but if they are
dark colored, well baked and made of good
material, they will generally do well. In
many instances they have imperfections or
are sufficiently porous to allow some of these
contents to escape; and there has been so
much complaint against them that they can
not be recommended. They are less costly
than glass. We believe therefore from all
that has already been said, that glass jars
have advantages which will bring them
into general use in families, and will finally
supersede utmost altogether the others. They
are more attractive to the eye, they never
absorb their contents while they always
show them, so that if, as sometimes will
happen, fermentation should supervene In
exception cases the accident may be seen
and the remedy applied. They are also
durable if care is taken always to heat
them slowly and handle them with
moderate care. If plunged suddenly into
hot water, or if filled while cold with hot
substances they are liable to crack. One of
the principal objections urged against theni
is that being translucent they admit light
which initiates fermentation. Air, warmth.
and moisture are the agents which promote
fermentation, and we can find no authority
for-assuming that light possesses any such
influence under the circumstances in which
such vessels are usually kept. There are
some points worthy of careful attention in
selecting ajar. It should be so contrived
that it can he easily and surely closed air
tight, and what is of great importance also,
that it can be easily opened. We have be
fore us some jars which have been in use
for several years, and which after giving
satisfaction on most of the above points, are
still in good condition for future service.
Without recommending any particular
made jar, or wishing to be understood as say
ing that there may not be others as , rood or
better, wesimply call attention to Wil,,lough
by's patent for the purpose of illustration.
Reliance is here placed upon a gum ring to
exclude the air, and if the ring is put
properly in place to begin with, the can is
easily and quickly closed hermetically.
But after the ring has been screwed down
for months, it often happens in jars having
this contrivance in some form or other,;that
it becomes:adherent to its surroundings,'and
the cover cannot be pulled or screwed off
without trouble. Such is the case in a small
degree with the jar under observation. To
op - Jn it, we first take off the screw altogether,
which is easily done if it has been oiled at
the time of calming. We next come to au
iron plate, and here lies iLs defect. If the
phite had an eye or small projection (which
it has not), near its edge, it could
be pulled oil. After taking off this
iron plate, it is easy to loosen the gum ring,
which lies exposed, at some point, with a
pointed instrument, when it can be grasped
with the fingers and pulled out. The lower
or tin lid tits loosely and is no obstacle.
The committee would recommend the mem
bers, this season, to use, for the sake of ex
periment, a few each of the following kinds
of jars: The Hero, Squires patent, the
Franklin and Willoughby's patent. A year
hence we may thus be able to give our pref
erences with inure freedom.
As to the mode of canning—the following
is the method of a gentleman of experience,
and we give it pretty much in his own
words, assured that if carefully followed,
satisfaction will be the result:
"Put the fruit Into the jar, then filUnearly
full with cold syrup, made of a half to three
quarters of a pound of refined sugar to a
quart of water. More uniformity is attained
by using a sachometor in which case for
good ripe peaches a specific gravity of fif
teen degrees Baume is sufficient. Very
acid fruit requires more sugar. Put upon
the bottom ofa suitable vessel a wooden strip
on which set the jars, and fill the vessel
with cold water up to the necks of the jars.
Boil from ten to fifteen minutes; till the
jars brim full with hot syrup and seal
quickly.". Cure should be taken before
sealing to wipe the mouths of the bottles
clean of the syrup before sealing, as this
will make it more easy to remove the
covers. Strawberries, cherries amt black
berries need not be boiled so lung. The
general rules would seem to be—use sound,
ripe fruit, sugar enough to make it palata
ble, boil long enough to heat through all the
fruit, till the jars to the brim, and seal her
metically without delay, The jars should
afterwards be placed where they do not
touch the walls of the house.

MOFFAT'S LIFE PILLS AND PMENIXBITTEDS.
The wonderful effects of 11.offat's Life Pills in cases
of mental depression or physical weakness, proceed
ing from Indigestion, sostivene3s, or bilious secre
tors are certified to by millions of persons who have
been boned tted by them. They are the most effective
cathartic and purifier ever before the public and have
ever been in use since 1825. They are cheap, safe and
reliable. Sold by all respectable dealers everywhere.
A plain statement of facts. I inherited Scrofula,
and many of my relations have died of It, In 1639 my
case was frightful. Tumors and ulcers spread until
In 1512, under the advice of my physicians I went to
Avon Springs. I received nu benefit—tried every
medicine and did everything I could• I had to rest my
arm on a cushion, and had not been able to raise it to
my head for over a year. The discharge from two
ulcers was nearly a plot a day. Amputation was
recommended; but pronounced dangerous. I could
not sleep, and my sufferings were intolerable. A
friend brought me an English physician who applied
a salve With which he said he had accomplished ex.
traordinary cures In the hospitals In England. It
commenced to relieve; persisted In its use; it finally
effected a perfect and entire cure. It is now Eris, It
LB five years since I bad the appearance ofa scrofulous
sore, and my. health has been good ever since. I
Procured the receipt of his wonderful article—thin
blessing of humanity—and have called it " PAGE'S
CLIMAX SALVE," and allow the public to use It or not
as they choose. This is a brief but candid statement
given more fully In my circular.
