SPRING CLEANING..
BY A SUFFERED.
The melancholy days have come, the saddeit Cl
the year,
Of cleaning paiat, and scrubbing floors, and scour
ing far and near;
Heaped in the corners of the room ,the' ancient dos
. lay quiet,
Nor rose up at the father's tread, nor to the chil
dren's not ;
But'aow the carpets all are up, and from the stair
' Case' top,
The mistress calls to man and maid to wield the
I.knoom and mop. ' • '
•
Where are those rooms, those quiet rooins, the
house but now presented,
Wherein we dwelt, nor dreamed, of'dirt, so cosy
„ and consented ?
Attic they're turned all upskte-down, that quiet
suite of rooms '
With slops and aid s, and soap and sand,' and tubs,
and pails and brooms.
" Chain, tables, stands, are standing round, at sixes
and at sevens,
=-While wife andhousemaids fly about like meteors
through,the heaves:is.
The parlor , and the chamber floor were cleaned •
week ago;
/Thai carpets shook, the windows washed, as all the
nelghbOrs know;'
But still 'the sanctum had escaped—the table piled
with books,
Pens, ink and paper all about, peace in its very
looks—
Till tell the women on them all, as tails the plague
on men, •,
And then they vanished all away, books, paper,
ink and pen. , ' -
And now, when comes the mister home, as come
' he must o' nights,
To fkid all things are "set to wrongs," that they
• have " set to rights,"
When the sound of driving tacks is heard, though
: the house is far from still,
And the carpet woman's on the stairs, thst harbin

He looks for papera,"bookr, or bills, that alt were
there before,
And sighs to find them on the desk or in the drawer
no more.
Atid then he grimly thinks of her who set this fuss
afloat,
'And wishes she were out to sea, in a very leaky
boat:
Ile meets her at tbe-parlor door, with hair and eap
awry,
With sleeves tucked up, and broom in hand; deft

He feels quite small, and knows lull well there's
. nothing to be said,
He holds hilt tongue, and drinks his tea, and sneaks
away to bed.
, DAN'S COUSIN'S DOG
" I have a bachelor cousin," said Dan,
" who is very near . sighted ; in addition fo
which misfortune be is cross-eyed. He had
been operated upon for strabismus, on the
new mode, but it only resulted in changing
the obliquity to a different direction, and he
designs, he says, to have it set back, for he
likes, his old - 4quiot the best. As I said,
however, he is very near-signte'd ; I don't
think he ever saw his big toe, and I
have seen him blot out his signature with
his nose, while writing it. But that is nei
'ther here nor there," said Dan. " Cousin
Joe bad a favorite spaniel, a handsome fel
low, with long, drooping ears, and eyes that
had a remarkable humane expression. He
was arijaffectionate, faithful animal, and his
master loved him as he would•have loved a
child. Well, one morning' last summer,
while passing down Broadway, I encounter
ed Joe, wearing an unusually doleful aspect,
and on Inquiry, I learnened that Dash was
very sick, and was going to die.
" He acts very strangely, said Joe, " and
Fie shut him up is the kennel."
" Ah !" says I,_ " hydrophobia, perhaps
won't he drink 1"
" Liken fish,"? said Joe, ".but won't eat."
Won't eat !",
"Not a morsel—nht a crumb. I've tried
him 'with everything; I even had a chicken
broiled for him, yesterday, and buttered, and
he would'nt touctrit."
" Well, that is strange," said I " how
long has he been in that condition ?"
• "'This, is the filth day;" replied Joe, look
ing very serious, " and'the poor fellow can
hardly stand."
"We were not far from Joe's house at
this time, and I proposed to visit his p
liant, to itc k h he gladly assented, and led
the way, ut ring many an euconium on poor
fiaithlul Dash, and expressing his fear?- that
we night not find him alive."
" Well," continued DJO, "we went in,
and went to the kennel," and Dan's face
grew redder and redder. " Went to the
kennel, and there.was the dog—ha! ha! ha!
—there was the dog—ho! ho ! ho !—with a
great wire muzzle on his j-j-j-jaw !"'and
then followed a final guffaw, long, loud and
sonorous.
"Pool Dash," continued' Din, recovering
his breath—" how much worse than Tanta
us' hiid been thy lot ! No sooner had I
Incised his masticator than he tell 10. eating
like a famiihed wolf ; and cousin Joe said

Procure the muzzle ; but his servant had
been discharged the next day, for some of

his memory."

cidedly good:
One of the store-keepers of this place, a

The storekeeper had nothing more to say
on the subject.

Q' Cream cannot rise through a great depth of
milk. ni milk 1 therefore desired to retain its
cream for a time, it should be put into a ddep nar
row dish; and if it be desired to free it most com
pletely of cream, it should be poured into a broad
flat dish, not much .exceeding one inch in depth: -.7..-
The evolution of cream is facilitated by a rise, and
retarded by a depression of temperature. At the
usual temperature of the dairy, 50 degrees Fahren
heit, all the cream will probably rise in twenty-six
hours, but at 76 degreeis, it will probably all rise in
less than half that time, and when milk is kept near
the freezing point, the cream will rise very slowly,
because it becomes partially solidified.
In wet and cold weather the milk is less rich
than in dry and Warm; and on that account more
cheese is obtained in cold than in warm, though
not in thundery Weather:. The season has its et
fects—the milk in the spring is supposed to be best
for calves, in summer it is best suited for cheese,
and in autumn the butter , keeping better than that
of summer. Cows less frequently milked than oth
ers give rich milk and consequently much better.—
The morning's milk is richer than the evening's.
.The last drawn milk of each milking, at all times
;and seasons, is richer than the ...first drawn, which
is the poorest—Ezehange Paper.
BREAD WITHOUT CRUST.
or We commend the attention of housewives
to the followiagrecipe, (from Arthur's home Gaz
ette) for making bread without crust. We speak
confidently of its merits, for our better-half, in ten
der regard for, the dilapidated condition of our mas
ticating apparatus, has tried the experiment, and
with perfect success. The feels light and spongy,
the flavor does not differ materially from that of
well baked bread, and the outside is scarcely any
harder than the rest. Blessings on the woman
who contrived a way of making . dread without
crust. " Prepare the dough the same as for baking
in a tin basin.; when in a proper condition, instead
of putting it into the oven, put it into a kalle.—
There should be something in the bottom of the
kettle, a hoop of tin twcyr Ihree inches broad
would be best, to keep the basin from the bottom,
and there should he sufficient water to cover about
one-third of the basin. Keep the water constan'ty
boiling from the ,time the loaf is put in, till it is
done, which will be about three-quarters of an
hour, with an ordinary sizetl . loaf. To know when
it is done, press upon the' centre of the top of the
loaf with the thumb, and if done, it will pullback
on removing the thumb, it not, the indentation will
remain."
RAPID EVAPORATION'OP ICE
far Every washervioman knows by experience
that, when wet clothes are hung out in scold freez
ing day, they will soon becomo bard, then they
will dry, and become quite limber after_ being o.x
-posed for some time. This is owing to the rapid
evaporation of ice. In the arctic regions, the dry
ness of the atmosphere is remarkable. Wood, horn,
and ivory are shrivelled up.. The handles of razors,
knives, combs, Scc., are damaged in the same way
as when kept in warm rooms. The human body,
in the arctic regions, becomes highly electric from
the dryness of the skin. 'Friction of the skin pro
duces the electric ozone odor. A piece of linen,
says Sir John Richardson, after being washed and
exposed in the air . at 40 deg below zero, if agitated
by the wind, dries nearly as fast as if it were ex

Gentlemen—For some years past I have adopted In
my family, as a purgative, Hr. %Voltlit's Indian Vege

and have found that medtcitte of great worth.
Last November we were visited by a kind of inflate
matory fever, (the same I presume which greatly af
flicted our neighbors, the Brazilians, for rte.orl” year)
the symptoms of which had an attalogy to the yellow
fever, and nearly three hundred persona fill virtues In
the epidenur (a great number for a population as Sollati
as ours.) Our dolling named it the true ye.low fever,
but their skill watinellitlent to stop Its piflEr e iS, con
fining their mode of treatment to the alai of quinine,
-and the application of leeches, forbidding the use of
purgatives, and of ILOOTOP all the soldier,' and sailors,
who were obliged to be sent to t h e llosnifals, its also
the Governor, several Magistrates. several' officers,
and In fact all those who tvere really itfiltried with the
disease, fell vicflent under their mode of treatment.
A month previous. I had received that e dozen boxes
of Dr. Wright's Pills. which I presume were bought
at your store by Messrs. Goldsmith, Ne vcomb &

To Drssonvr. Boxvs.—Procure a stout :}7 ,
earthen jar, of about thirty gallons capaci t y, 4 E'5,.!
Put 100 lbs. in the jar and , moisten them
with water for a day or two. Now dilute
fifty pounds of vitriol with two or three
times its bulk of water and pour one-third of
it upon the boned. Stir them frequently, and
on the morrow add another third of the acid
and water. Stir theta well, and if not flit,
solved sufficiently on the iext (fay, add the
retnaioder of -the liquid. As soon as the
bones are reduced, mixed charcoal dust, dry' '
pest, saw dust, loamy earth, or, if for un,
mediate'use, ashes or lime may be used ass
diyer until the whole is in the form 'ol po w .
(der, convenient for sowing by bind or dill.
ling machine. You may apply this at th e
rate of three to ten bushels of . the bones lb
the afire, sown broadcast and lightly plowed
or hairowed in, so that the earth will absor b
the gaseous portions of the gelatine of the
bones, which is or great value; independent
of the phosphate of lime ; a substance p.m.

pastures of all the old States of tbe.Uoion.
SAVING MANURE.
The Michigan Farmer gives the practiced
a Scoth farmer, in the saving and manage—
meat of his manure, which we cannot „but
regard-as eminently economical of fis ferti
lizingquafities, and worthy of general adiip•
lion except in the depth of winter, when it
may be delayed. To prevent dissipation by
evaporation and washing, he draws away
as last as it is thrown from the stable, pil es .
it up in some convenient place on the faim,
first placing a layer of the fresh manure, lc, .n
a depth of 8 or 10 inches, then a layer r,t
common soil about 4 inches thick, lvhiell
presses the course down to about the same
thickness, then another layer of manure,"
which in like manner is followed by another
layer-of earth, and - So on till the pile is cam.
pleted.- In this way the. volatile portions are
preserved, and he asserts the manure is of
double value to what it would have been ly

DEEP PLOWING.
Does any farmer doubt that a deep soden • -
be cultivated with more profit than a
one ? Does any farmer believe that a slaL
low soil will Stand a drought or retaie
nure as well as a deep one? Will any argut
that the same amount of manure, buriei
through a depth of eight inches, will pr,.,
duce less results, in any soil, than if burn!
through a depth of lour inches ?
Let it be the object of every farmer IL
deepen his soil, by the use of•the u trEcd
plow—if his subsoil' be hard or clayey—ind
by deep plowing generally. Turning up
small portion of the subsoil annually—l or
