sunilty ivliijipeil ijuids of tnliaeeo ami muti
nied eiar ftutnps liatl Leen kiel.eil under
the stove, there was a wooden step on the
stairs and a vigorous rap at the dour.
'Coie in," i .'iid the Justice, tis he settled
into, a h-tral look so Lelittin; n uittu of law
duly elected to dispense the favors of the
Mind goddess.
A stout noinau entered. She had 011 u
short woolen dress wooden scled shoes
sported rod cheeks, black hair, and eyes that
rnripwd like the lock of u .-iiot nun. In a
I 'ortntruese accent, nud in the worst possible
Knlisli, i-he saitl,
"You law man ?"
"Yes, madam : be seated "
"Want jiuj)er. Want paper to take man !"'
'Jn-t then a stout French half-breed t'rt
tered the room. Ho was utuible to speak
half a dozen words, and looked either scared
or bashful. The jttU:e saw at once that
tin re was some marriage to coine oil', and
said to the woman, who stood with com
pressed lips watching the Justice aud the
door
"Win? r.per to take this man ("
"Yes want paper. Mc tench him. (Nice
woman, thought the .lust i.e.) IE-110 guild
man me take him so quick as ran
"AH right, my covies tu y-nt in the jcik
'f n lafiiL's tail," said the Justice us he turn
id to the man and said
"You know this woman, can you take
her ?'
The unit shook his
head and muttered I
i
unitin ligiltle words.
"Ah ! 1 see. Can't talk
llnt'li.-li. Well
never mind."
He ran into the fired, invited if few
frh'-ndt tip stairs, and on returning with
them said to the woman,
"You want to take this mail for littler or
for worse ;''
''Yes me want to take him- me jiav !"
"All riht !"
Then turning to the man who stood
trembling
"You take this ivmiitin for better or for
w orse, and promise to keep her," Ac., etc.
"I'niph I" and several nods of the Lead.
'Then in the name of the law, ami virtue
of the authority in me vested, 1 pronounce
you man and wife." And he stepped for
ward before the woman could say a word
nnd kissed her red lips.
"siup" came Iter hand in his face and she
clutched his hair. The new husband jumped
in to lake the woman away, mid to protect
Iter, its the wofnan supposed, when in .-elf-pris'TVation
the Justice gave him a rap oil
the no.se. The woman pitched into the new
husband, who in turn pitched into her, and
for about live minutes there was a general
hustling mid di-play of h-jri, garters, and
things decidedly astonishing.
At last the parties were separated, when
the man ami woman took another turn at
each other, the blood and linir living in all j
directions. )own came the slovc, over j
w tut the table, chit ter w ent the chairs, and
into the street like mad went the Justice,
with a black eye utid the bosom of his shirt
looking like a warranty deed covered with
red seals !
A crowd riuhed up tair nnd found the
man and wuiiihii ly ing on the lloor, hugging
each other liku young binins, their nuns
and legs mixed up worse than tomato vines,
the woman on top, and pommeling In r

T.u: Sm.t Istkukst. Tlie changes in
currency and high taritl' on salt hasixen a
fresh impetus to its njnnufacluie in the
west. In Siiintty Valky, Michigan, where
in 1800 no salt was made, they now manu
facture 1,5(10,000 barrels per annum.
The lalinlous profits already made are
creating quite tin excitement amongst cap
italists. J.snds that two years ajjo sold fur

ever brought to repentance by anirry words;
by bitter, scornful reproaches. He fortifies
himself against reproof, aud hurls back foul
charge in the face of his accuser. Yet
guiltv and hardened as he seems, he has a
heart in his bosom, and inav be melted to
tear byagifille voice. Whoso, therefore,
can restrain his disposition to blame ami

'fallen brother, will soon find his way to
better feelin:.'. within. Pity and patience
litre the two keys which unlock the human
, heart. They who have been most successful

The following from the Oeitme l-Wmir,
cannot but prove valuable to the general
reader at this period of the year, when the
rjucstion of how to make good butter in
winter is constantly discussed :
It is not an easy matter to make g'nd
butter during the winter months, especially
when you have, ns is usually the case, but
few cows that nre giving milk.
If the milk was a rich in butter during
tho winter lis it is in summer, there would
seem to be 110 reason why it cannot be ex
tracted. Tho temperature of the house is
tinder our control ; so is that of the churn,
tho cream, V.c. P.ttt the fact is that in a
majority of cases the milk contains little
bill ter. The good wife, may be ever so
skillful in her management, but if the butter
is not there no amount of eare nnd labor on
her part will produce it. If the butler does
not "conic."' tlie limit is not hers. J.et the
cow be w til fed and kept warm and com
fortable, and there will be little trouble in
churning.
Puttcr, like fat, is derived fioui the food.
If tho food contains fat or carbonaceous
surest tinces, like starch and sugar, they w ill
produce fat and these nre not all consumed
to keep up the animal heat of tho body, the
cow, if liberally supplied w ith it. w ill either
increase in weight or give milk rich in
butter.
An Knglish lady who has had much expe
rience in making butter, gives us the follow
ing hints in regard to her method of proce
dure in winter: "Where only a few cows
are giving milk, skim the cream off every
morning, nnd scald it by putting it in a tin
immersed in boiliilg water, nnd letting it
remain till well heated. If the cows are
eating turnips, this will take away their

bealding the ( ream put it in a crook, and
add to it tho cream each morning (scalding
tes before) till y"n have enough to churn, say
ouo Week, li' kept longer the cream is apt
to beconlc bitter. It is not desirable to
skim the milk fur more than two days. The
cream should lie kept in a moderately warm
room, or at least w here it will pot freeze.
I When ready to churn, scald your churn and
pour 111 the cream while lue churn is hot
and churn immediately."

Monthly, in reply to an impiiry, says: "Gas
lime, when it can be had pure, is of essential
service to clay soils ; but in most casts it
contains creasote, and many soils have be
come seriously injured by its use. It i so
seldom free from this substance, and this
agaiu vanes so much in proportion, that no
siile can be given lor its use. I'nlcs well
assured of its purity, we should let it alone."
This is good advice; we have known much
injury done by the : ;'. . .'. .' il of gas lime
to land.

Dr. Jameson is one of the most nble,
talented, and eccentric surgeons of the pre
sent century. Hi practice embraces a largo
circuit, nnd his fame extends to every part
of Massachusetts. Tho doctor win one
morning sitting in his oflico poring over
some medical work, w hen a loud rap at tho
door aroused him.
"Conic in." said the doctor, nnd an old
lady hobbled into the apartment, who seem
ed the very embodiment of dirt and negli
gence. "Doctor, I've got a dreadful sore foot
can you help it ?"' said she.
"1 will try -let mo see it."
Tho old Clone proceeded to divest her
understanding of the apology for a shop,
with which it was covered, and displayed
to the astonished doctor a foot and such a
foot I
"I.a, doctor, ye needn't he in such won
derment about it. There's dirtier feet than
that in your own hou-,e, a proud ns the
young ladies, your daughters are, for all
that.''
And the old hag cackled forth her p!casuro
at the doctor's surprise.
"Woman, if you tan find a dirtier foot
than that in my house. I will give you rive
dollars, nnd cure your foot lor nothing."
"Pon honor?'' cried the bcdlame.
"Pou honor," sai 1 t'ue doctor.
The woman stripped oil' the other stock
ing, and displayed a foot that beggared ull
description, gt inning in the face of the as
tonished doctor us she exclaimed :
"fiio m! the tuoucy ! 1 knowed it I
iM.ito tolher 'fore 1 came here.''
A i eiU(l lsrunU
Not long ago a fellow mortal who had
gone through the various stages of fuddle,
was seated with me on tho box of a instil
stage out west. All bauds had been amused
with tho spirited wit of our hero, who uow
at last Oceanic a little tongue tied, and found
mime dilliculty, in m.tiuUiuing his perpen
dicular as the stage jolted along over tho
uneven road. Pretty soon the w heel of the
coach over which our drinking friend was
sitting, sank to the hub iu the mud. which
action precipitated him from the couch into
tho w ire, where he made a forcible impres
sion. Turning over, he looked up to tho
d.iiver, who had stopped the stage at once.
and exclaimed:
"Driver, what (.hie) in thunder did you
(hie) tip the stage over for !''
The driver told him that the stage was
all right.
"I say, driver, the stage is (hici over, if
you don't believe thic) it, look there,"
turning up his coat tail and displaying a
vast quantity of mud which had gathered
on his imnts.
The driver still maintained that the stago
was right, and told him to get up and on ;
but tho drunken man w as disputatious, and
was not going to give it up so. The driver
was drunk, and down, and so was the stage,
lie was willing to leave it to the passengers.
And once more exhibiting hiiuotlt, covered
with mud, saitl :
"I say, you fillers, ain't the stage over?'
They told him that he was the only one
over. 'This was a clincher. Ho had agreed
to leave it to them, and they had decided
against him, and lie was honorably bound
to give it up, w hi -h he did by saying ;
"1 be d U it I would (hie) have got
on" if I had thought .lic) that tho btagu
w asn't over."
