Scene in a New ork Police Cpnrt.
" Louisa Maeder I , William Macdefl"
scouted Clerk Johnson in . the Court of
Special Sessions yesterday.
A pale, hubohbacked woman, with a
babe in her arms stepped slowly for
ward and took her seat upon the witness
stand, t She was dressed in a suit of
black,, and her ilarge eyes looked out
p'iteoualy upon , the three justices and
the steaming crowd of spectators
A XPpei!tahly dressed nnd gentleman
ly man stepped from the prisoners' pen
to the br. His' eyes fairly started
from his head as he looked toward his
wife. Louisa,? he murmured . in a
soft, heart-broken tone, bat no answer
came from the witness stand.
t Justice Cox conducted the examina
tion. Turning to the deformed woman
he said :
"Where do you live Y
"No. 21 City Hall place."
" Have you been beaten?"
" I have been beaten very often," was
the plaintiff's .answer. " He always
tries to kick me in the body, but this
time he kicked me in the face."
' ' Louisa," came in tender tones from
the bar.
Louisa turned and met her husband's
gaze. She burst into tears. Turning
to their Honors she said :
" Please put him and- bail to treat
me well."..; . : ". .
" Where did yu get that scar on the
nose Y" asked Justice Shandley, " did he
hit you there r" .
" Yes, sir ; please put him under
bail."
Jusiice'vCox turned to the prisoner
and said :
William, the Court finds you guilty
and sentences you to the penitentiary
for one month."
William's fortitude forsook him. He
began to weep; 1 Two officers took him
and forced him from the room. The
poor hunchback wifo and mother sprang
from the seat, and with deep emotion
exclaimed, " Please sir, don't do that."
Three little girls, the eldest not more
than eight years old, ran up to the bar
and began to cry fr "papa!" The
prisoner had by Jthis time been forced
half way across tho Bridge of Sighs.
The soene was too much for the Justices.
Mr. Cox spoke :
" Bring th.it man back." Ho return
ed, tears of genuine grief in his eyes.
" William,". said Justice Cox. "in con
siderition of your wife and children
the C urt. ' will suspend judgment on
you." -
Then followed a taVlcau such as a
court room seldom sees. The prisoner
took his children in his arms and kit-sed
them lovingly. His deformed wife
hung on his arm, and the family went
from the room, in which many an eyq
was met, and many a sympathetic heart
naa noen touched.
Tho Talno of Salt.
Salt is one of the necessities of life,
and any thing we eat, except bread,
oould be more readilv snared. It is in
teresting to know how salt has been
valued in former times. Dr. Letheby
says : ;
Animals, in fact, will travel Ions dis
tances and brave the greatest dangers to
obtain it. Men will barter gold for it j
indeed, among the Gallas and on the
coast of Sierra Leone, brothers will soil
their sisters, husbands their wives, and
pareritw their children, for salt.
Ih the district of Accra, on the Gold
Coast of Africa, a hnidiul ot salt is the
most valuable thing - upon earth after
gold, and will purchase a slave or two.
fllungq Park tells us that with the Man
diugoep and Bambaras the use of salt is
such a, luxury, that to say. of a man,
" He flavors his food with salt" is to im
ply th,at he is rich j and children will
suck .4 piece of rock-salt as if it were
sugar. . j . i
Jfo etjoriger mark of respect or affec
tion can be Bhown in Museovy than the
sanding of salt from the tables of the
rich to their poorer friends. In point of
faot the value of salt in a dietetioal and
sanitary toint of view has been ratio?.
irized.from the earliest time. In the
book of Leviticus it is expressly com
manded as one of the ordinances of
Moses, that every oblation of meat upon
the altar shall be seasoned with salt.
without lacking ; and hence it is culled
toe B-klt ot the covenant of Viod. .
Tk Greeks and Komnus also used salt
io, heir sucriticial cukes; and it is still
uied in the Ktirvices of the Latin church
the fiana mica, or pinch of salt, being
in the ceremony of baptism put into the
child's mouth, while the priest says,
" Bsoeivw the salt of wisdom, and may
it be a piopitiation to thee for eternal
ute.
Everywhere, and almost always, in
deed, it has been regarded as emblemat
ical of wisdom, wit and immortality. To
taste of a man's salt was to be bound by
the rites of hospitality ; and no oath
was more solemn than that which was
sworn upon bread and salt. To sprinkle
the meat with salt was to drive away
the devil, for, in the quaint language of
an old divine, " He loveth no salt on his
meat, for that is a sign of immutabil
ity ;" and to this day nothing is more
uniucKy man to spill tne salt.
A. other Gas Story. At a hotel in
New York, recently, an old gentleman
came down stairs and inquired ot the
clerk whether be had any tallow can
dies. Being informed that he could be)
supplied with tallow dips, the old gen
tleman said :
. " Then I wish you'd give me some ; I
Want something I can blow out, for I've
been blasting away at that cussed jigger
la my room till X ve no wind left I
1 The clerk, by a spasmodio effort, kept
nig countenance and ordered a pound ot
flips to room Wo. .
There is nothing like a good defini
tion, as the teacher thought when be
explained the meaning of " old maid "
as a woman who had been made a very
long time.
-. ...... . flonth in Life.
About two rears aero, the alternate
amusement and pity of social circles! in
Portland, Oregon, wns a young man
whose convivial weakness mnitralined
Ms every eood iLtentiou. and made him
a contempt to himself, and a burden to
all who cared for him. With mental
capacity much above the average, and
worm Buupiumues to Keep aiive nis sense
of shame at his own degrading excesses,
the miserable young fellow's career was
but a succession of sore repentances and
renewed indulgences until his once oom-
fortable home had become repulsive
with debt and despair, and his Door
young wife could have prayed that death
would claim both of them while it oould
yet come without infamy. Rocklcss,
unprincipled borrowing of money for
dissipation from the nearest practicable
possessor is ono of the first as it is
amongst the last signs of a character lost
to all honor and self-respect in the bru
talization of dram-drinking, and the
subject of this sketch had practised it
until the toleration of his most patient
viatims was exhausted.
Thus it ensued that when, one day in
his maudlin extremity, he applied to a
much-tried acquaintance for a turther
sum, and intimated that he should de
stroy himself if his request waa refused,
tho hasty answer was
11 vll, that is perhaps the best thine
you could do."
The words seemed to shock and arouse
the hapless wretch, as suggesting a new,
awful, and prophetic idea. With a
ghastly smile, and lnghtcned stare, he
muttered
"That's so, I believe you're right,"
and turned away, partly sobered.
In an hour thereafter, at nightfall, he
was seen on the edge of the wharf.
People near at hand heard a heavy
splash in the water, and word was sent
to the waiting wife at home that her
hapless husband had committed suicide.
In the morning the river was dragged
tor the body, but not until a week fol
lowing did tho waves cast ashore the
disfigured remains which, to the eyes of
the near relatives only, had a semblance
to the lost drunkard.
A decent funeral came next, by frrace
of Christian charity, and the weeping
and penniless widow was left alone to
battle with the world for a livelihood.
In this she might have reached an early
grave herself, being wholly unused to
severe toil, but for tho chivalry of a
mend, who, after exerting himself to
obtain employment for her, allowed his
interest to assume gradually a deeper
character, and finally prevailed upon her
to become his wife.
So passed away from current record
the very name of the first husband ; not
to and mention again until recalled by
a revelation of the last week.
The person whose final refusal of
money to the importunate borrower had
been accompanied by such fatal words,
and who had never forgiven himself tho
utterance of those words, chanced to be
in Chicago on business lately, and was
creutly startled at noticing, in the fea
tures of an humble workman upon one
of tho new buildings there, an exact
likeness ot the long-ago suicide ot Wil-
lauimette river. Noticing his involun
tary start and stare, tho workman un
hesitatingly advanced toward him, with
extended hand, saluting him by Name.
The dead was alive again ; the former
self-destroyer of Portland, Oregon, was
now a sober but prematurely ajred brick
layer in the City of the Great Fire, and
fraukly confesst d his identity before the
other could accuse him thereof. Dead,
however, to his former unworthy self,
and unworthily treated relatives, he
wished still to remain, and would never
resume his old name nor return to his
former home. His wife must procure a
divorce from him, and have her second
mariage solemnized anew ; as, in pre
tending suicide, he had taken leave ef
her, and all his other joutbful associ
ations, as perfectly as though he had
really died.
The idea of suicide, as suggested by
his friend's impulsive reply to his last
disgraceful importunity, had taken such
a hold upon his conscience, that only a
sudden hope coming to him as he was
preparing to plunge into tho dark water
had prompted him to cast a heavy stake
into the tide instead, and then fly for
ever from the scenes ot his past ignom
iny and despair. It was well for those
lie left behind that the body ot some
dead stranger, cast up by the wavas.was
subsequently taken for his own, and
confirmed his mortal departure. From
Dalles by stage to Kefton, and from
thence by rail to Chicago, he had made
pilgrimage into a new life a life of
rigid self-control, penitence, and honest,
if humble, toil ; in which, under a new
name, and far from all that he once was
or ever again shall be, he has deter
mined to spend the remainder of days
vouchsafed to him in this world, and
strive to merit rehabitation iu the world
'to come.
" You need not reproach yourself for
those words of yours," he added, when
his old friend spoke regretfully of them,
" for they only warned ine ia time of
what must have been my end if they
had not been said just as they were, and
tnen.
How to Lire on $1,200 a Year.
Under the heading of " Household
Expense," the New York l'iine has
called out a long list of communica
tions, showing how a middle-class family
may be maintained in good houses, and
have every comfort, on $1,200. The
following plan strikes us as the most
feasible and commonly practised :
" Your inquiries are by far more num
erous than the replies as to the method
ot making both ends meet when keeping
house or living on a small salary or in
come. I have for the past two years
kept house with a wife, three children,
ana two servants on an income of less
thau $1,200 per annum, and from present
appearances shall do it again this year.
My plan is this : I spend what I need
to live well, keeping a monthly account
with the butcher, grocer, etc. I let the
bills accumulate for a period of say two
months, and at this time the treasury is
empty, and the bills considerable. Then
(and this is the great idea) my wife col
lects the bills, and goes, with tears in
her eyes, to her father, pleads poverty,
talks the old gentleman out of a check,
and the crisis is met. The next time, to
give him a rest, one of the two inevita
ble well-off brothers-in-law is called in
requisition. This, you will see, only
happens twice a year to each and it
don't hurt them much, so we swing
along. The above is the only feasible
plan I see, and is, I know, the most com
mon way. No young man, ia my
opinion, has a right to get married un
less his father-in-law keeps a bank ac
count, and unless the marriage brings
him a couple, at least, of moneyed
brothers-in-law."
A Stndy of Society-Comparisons with
our English Cousins.
(Mri. Stowe In the Christian Union.)
Saratoga is like a irroat citv: the
throng is so great, tho succession so con
stant, that Ono has a oomfortablo Sunse
that one oan do as one nleanes without
exacting a passing remark. When the
bj-sad colonade, two or three hundred
feet long, is full of promenaders, with
every variety of toilet, positive, com
parative, and superlative you feel that
tne most you could do, had you the
means, would be nothing here ; and the
least you can do answers every purpose.
since nobody gives more than a passing
glauoe at anything. It is a constant
tido of faces and forms ebbing and flow
ing, and tho second blots out the first,
and the third the second as the waves
of the sea efface each other.
As a study of American society a visit
at Saratoga is a thing quite worth one's
while. There are peculiarities in it
distinctly American, and resulting di
rectly from the habits of republican so
ciety, which are worth notice. One of
these is the ease and independence of
the lifo. Nobody is afraid of anvbodv.
There are no visible bolts and bars, no
boundaries of frigid reserve such as ob
tain in society which has been broken
into classos, each ono of which fools it
necessary to keep off the other from its
acquaintance. In an English hotel or
watering-place, for example it would
be impossible, as here, to get at the
heart of English society and observe the
daily manners and goings on of the best
classes. What are called the bettor
clussos in England are fenced in by
every national custom and regulation,
and as completely secluded as tho ladies
of the Grand Seignor's harem.' There
are no common parlors where all may
meet no common railroad cars. An
English family travels like an island
surrounded by water, or as if genii lifted
up tho house and took it from place to
place. The family, whole and compact,
goes everywhere and keeps by itself.
One may travel on the same railroad,
put up at the same hotels, with the best
English families, and see no more of
them than if one were anywhere else.
A servant secures a compartment-car for
their sole and separate use. Closo-veil-
ed, and looking neither to the right nor
left, they enter it. At the hotel their
suite of apartments is engagod. They
pass from the retirement ot the car to
the retirement of the hotel, and disap
pear in mysterious shadows.
The fifteen hundred gentlemen and
ladies who were making Congress Hall
their home while we were there were of
our best class and we say, with honest
pride, that the best class of English so
ciety has no better. There was no flash
and dazzle, no predominance ot shoddy
aristocracy ; all was quiet, easy, genial,
and refined. The American family of
tho best class was there well represent
ed. The father and mother, the young
collegian, the pretty daughter. And
here we must stop and indulge in a lit
tle gush of admiration at these dear,
charming, high-bred American girls.
Their beauty is of a style so delicate ; it
is so much the expression of character ;
it has so many positive intimations of
suppressed power and ability, that it is
all the more interesting. We watched
several of these little queens from day
to day without detecting an inharmo
nious movement or an unbecoming ges
ture everywhere and always they ap
peared coolly mistresses of tho situa
tion. This piquant little air of entire
self-possession and ability to look any
position in the face, is one of the pecu
liarities of our young ladyhood, and
when veiled by perfect modesty is a
wonderful charm.
As to toilet matters, we saw much ev
idence of good taste. The general av.
ernge was in that precise distance be
hind extremes which marks good sense
and refinement. The female costume of
the season, by the by, is in a much more
hopeful and beceming way than it was
two or three years ago, when the demi
monde ot irans sat as a queen, and had
seen no sorrow. It has not now that
scraggy, wild, nigh-flying air, that
quantity of jingle and tinsel and furbe
low that was at one time the desolatm
fashion. Toilets ef modest colors am
harmonizing shades of ono color have
taken the place of the startling con
trasts and theatrical fashions tint once
obtained, and there have been few in.
stances of vulgar over-dressing. In
deed, nothing has been more suggested
by the whole tone of dress, air, and
manner among the hundreds wlo
thronged our halls or sat at our tables
than the idea of culture and reunement.
Quiet ease, self-possession, and good
breeding have marked the tone ot so
ciety.
Letters.
Letters are of very ancient origin.
The first letter of which we have any
record is that written by David to
Jonah, directing him to place Uriah in
the front ot the battle. A bad begin
ning, surely. Cicero wrote a letter, as
he did everything, with ease and ele
gance. Seneca and the younger Pliny
also excelled in this art. The Romans
used tablets of wood coated with wax
sometimes ivory or parchment. Tho
Spartans sent their secret dispatches in
time of war on a long strip of parch
ment. This was first wrapped around a
stall, rolled slantwise and written
lengthwise, then taken off, and carried
by a special messenger to tho command
er who had a similar staff. It would, of
course, be perfectly unintelligible when
unwound, and so would cause no trouble
if it should fall into tho hands of an en
emy, but when wound on the staff of
the receiver it would reveal its mean
ing.
Herodotus tells of a cruel practice re
sorted to, to convey secret intelligence
with safety. 1 he head ot a trusty mes
scngor was shaved, and the writing was
impressed on his skull. .This was not a
rapid methoa ot transmitting news, tor
tho poor fellow's hair must grow long
enough to conceal the writing, and on
arriving at his destination he must
again be shaved. It is probable that
little anxiety was manifested in those
days to secure the pt srtiou of a letter
carrier 1
In oar time, the cheap postage makes
letters valueless as literary productions.
But in the "dear" old times, when one
felt it his duty to make his epistle worth
twenty-five cents, the letters were not
only long and newsy, but worth keeD
ing, and the letters of the past, pub
lished for our delight, form one of tho
most charming branches of our lighter
literature. The French, as a nation, are
the best letter writers, and a woman
Madame De Sevigne, is their brightest
star in that respect. But English read
ers can boast of Lady Mary Montague
and Waipole. ray. vovrper, Woott,
Byron, Southey and Burns have all dis
tinguished themselves by their letters.
A GRIG ULTUllALr
The VAtUE of Fise Fruit. It is a
common event that fruit is found on an
overstocked market. Some years it is
ono kind of fruit,,omotirues another j
but there is always a day. during the
season when there was absolutely no
sale, and the fruit on hand had to be
thrown away.
But this is true only of common fruit
There never yet was a time when fine
fruit did not meet with a ready salo, at
good pricos. No matter how the mar
ket may be gorged, the large luscious
specimens are always sought after, and
found to yield an excollent profit to tho
raiser. i
Tho ' moral " of all this is. that fruit
growing, in order t be a good business.
should be intelligently pursued. Only
he who thoroughly understands what he
is doing can achieve excellence in any
pursuit. Any one can raise fruit. One
has but to set out strawberries or plant
orchards to get some fruit J but to get
fruit which is emphatically good, a fair
knowledge of the principles and practi
ces of culture is desirable, and when this
is possessed mo one need fear making
fruit-growing pay whether in poor
seasons for fruit, or in thoso seasons
when so many complain that every av-
enuo to tho popular demand is complete
ly glutted, and that they intend another
year to get into better business.
It is in this as in every business, those
who understand it best succeed ; and in
fruit-raising the principal avenue to suc
cess is in the direction of the production
of first-class fruit.
Necessity of Greek Food to
Fowls. The first requisite in the shape
of diet is a regular supply of groen food.
Here, again, fowls kept on grass will
need no attention ; but for birds penned
up, the daily provision of it is an abso
lute necessity, though most beginners
are ignorant of it. We well remember,
in our own early experience, how our
fowls died, yet we could not at first tell
why; and one fine buff Cochin cock
whose only fault was a strong vulture
hook was, in particular, greatly regret
ted. An experienced friend let us into
the secret ; and after that wo had no
difficulty in keeping fowls, even where
it is often said they cannot be kept in
health viz : in a yard paved with large
flagstones. The best substitute tor nat
ural grass is a large turf thrown in
daily to each four or five hens ; and even
in towns it is often possiblo to procure
this, by giving childrea a lew pence
every week to keep up a regular supply.
Where turf is not allowed to be taken,
grass may be cut or pulled ; but' in this
case must be cut into gTeen chaff with
shours or a chaff machine. The latter
plan is how we actually managed for
years in a yard only sixty-eight by thirty-five
feet, divided into six pens ; pay
ing some child a few pence to bring
fresh cut grass daily, cutting it up and
mixing it with their toft meat. Ex
change. Delicacy of Butter. It is well
known to all dairy-women of experience
that butter, to bo sweet, requires the
cleanest and most delicate handling and
care. A farmer's wife says : " Of all
the products of the farm, butter is the
most liable to be tainted by noxious
odors floating in the atmosphere. Our
people laid some veal in the cellar from
which a little blood flowed out and was
neglected until it had commenced to
smell. The result was that the jar of
butter which 1 wasthen packing smelled
and tasted like spoiled beet. Another
lady reader observes that there was a
pond of filthv. stacmant water a few
hundred feet from their house, from
which an offensive effluvium would be
borne on the breeze directly to the milk
room, when the wind was in a certain
direction, the result of which was that
cream and butter would taste like the
disagreeable odor coming from that
pond. As soon as the pond was drained
we had no more damaged butter.
Lime in CRors. There is said to bo
carried off from the soil nine pounds of
lime in twenty-five bushels ot wheat,
nine pounds in htty bushels of oats,
and fifteen pounds in thirty-eight bush
els of barley. There are thirty-five
pounds ot limo in two tons ot rye grass,
one hundred and twenty-six pounds in
two tons of clover, and one hundred and
forty pounds in twenty-five tons of
turnips, and two hundred and sevonty
pounds in nine tons of potatoes. Some
soils contain abundance of limo for a
thousand years, while other soils require
an occasional application of lime as a
fertilizer.
Rotation in Crops. A five years'
rotation, adopted in England, for light,
loamy land, is : " First year, roots ;
second, barley ; third and fourth, clover ;
fifth, wheat. The advantages of the
system are, that the land gets a thorough
cleaning, and a mellow seed-bed is pre
pared for the barlev : and a vounor sod
is held to be, when broken up by a single
ploughing, a good preparation for a
sound seed-bed for the ensuing wheat
crops. In the west, roots are not raised
as a part of the rotatin, but the corn
crop should be used for the same pur
pose that roots aro in England one of
which is, clearing the soil from woods.
Buttermilk. Persons who have not
heen in tho habit Tof drinking butter
milk consider it disagreeable, becauso it
is slightly acid, in consequence of the
presence of lactic acid. There is not
much nourishment iu buttermilk, but
the presence of the lactic acid assists the
digestion of any food taken with it.
The "Welsh peasants almost live upon
oat-cake and buttermilk. Invalids suf
fering from indigestion will do well to
urmK buttermilk at meal lime.

A Deaths Head and Crossbones
ought to be the trade mark of every
dealer in Rum Bitters. But no ; to
proclaim their real mission would ruin
them, so they sail under false colors,
and do their deadly work surreptitious
ly. Fortunately thoir triumphs over
credulity are nearly at an end. Ever
since tne introduction of Dr. Walker a
California Vinegar Bitters the sale
of all tho burning fluids advertised as
"tonics" has been rapidly declining.
They are still the unwholesome solace of
individuals who wish to satisfy a mor
bid appetite for strong drink, without
compromising their respectability ; but
the sick are everywhere discarding them
ana adopting the vinegar Bitters.
The success of this wonderful vegeta
ble remedy astonishes Dr. Walker him
self. He believed, when ho gave it to
the world, that it was an unequalled
tonic, free from the objections urged
against the medicated lire-waters and
dilutions of strychnine, quinine and oth
er powerful alkaloids employed in mod
ern practice ; but he scarcely expected
that it would prove a specific for chronic
dyspepsia, liver-complaint, incipient
uuiiBumpuon, connrmea rneumatism,
gout, scrofula, nervous affections, trener-
al debility and all diseases that disor
ders, without destrovinff. the vital ma.
chinery. Yet this, unless thousands of
witnesses have consDired to deceive the
public, is actually tho case.

Every indication of debility and exhaustion Is
mute appeal of Mature for medicinal aid to arrest the
progress of decay. How are these silent appeals of
phy.lral weakness to the rasouroos of the healing art
usually met? Too often, unfortunately, the drugs
prescribed ace-ravate the symptoms. Whoever recom
tends drastic purgatives, or mineral salira&U, or
poisoaoas alkaloids, a rider saofe circumstances, is an
ally of the ailment and an enemy of the patient. Who
ever, on the contrary, advises the broken down and
desponding sufferer to resort to that peerless invig-
