Clawixg Off.' Yesterday as a police
man was 6trolling past a house on Fort
street cast, a woman a year or two over
forty, having; her sleeves rolled up aud her
hands covered with flour ran out to the
gate and called to him.
'It's a little delicate, she said as she
leaned over the gate and tried to blush,
'but I'm a person that knows my rights,
aud besides, I'm alone in the world and
no one to advise we.'
'Speak your niiud freely, madam,' re
plied the officer, and he tapped on the pick
ets with his baton.
'You know all about the law, don't
you ihe inquired.
'Everything, madam. I can tell you
how to go to work in an admiralty cafe,
and bring you from that down through
divorce, bankruptcy, arson, burglary, false
pretenses, hitching a lKrse to a shade tree
and gcttiug intoxicated. '
'It's a little delicate,' she softly said as
she rubbed the flour oil' her hands, 'but ns
I said before I'm all alone.'
'Trust me, madam repose confidence in
me,' lie replied, swelling out his chest.
'Well, s'i08cu you were a widow ?
'Yes, madam. '
'And s'poscn one of the boarders gave
you a breast-pin '
I sec, madam.'
'And s'poseu he smiled at you, and scut
you poetry, and asked you to ride out on
Sunday, aud the neighbors whispered
'around that you were engaged.'
'Proceed, madam I can congratulate
you.'
Xo, you musn't, for s'poseu' after all
this ho suddenly bf-gau to claw otT, and
didu't smile on you any more, and didn't
praise your cooking, and took auother wo
man to the minstrel show V
'Ah ! the traitor ! Perhaps he has trans
ferred his affections to some cue else.'
'That's what I think. I know it's a
little delicate, but I'm alone in the world,
you see, and I waul to know if there isn't
law to bear on him ? It isn't right to go
and encourage a lone woman like me and j
"then -!aw off.' !
'lie outfit to be roasted alive, he had 1'
I don't kuow as I'd want him arrested,
but I'd like to have you call on him and
make threats. Tell him he's liable to State
Prison for c'awing off this wa-. I tell you
it's a pretty serious thing to go and en
courage a womau of my age aud then skulk
around behind the hen-coop all of a sud
den. Isn't there a law ?'
'Let's see ? I hardly think there is.'
'Well, you can call ou him. Take him
itlone look fierce have your handcuffs in
sight. Just tell him that you know all
about it, and that I'm good-hearted, and
pleasaut, and that he better be careful how
he prauees around or he'll think a tornado

subscriber to the Elizabeth Ntvk came
into the office a few days ago, and ordered

Very well,' said the man.
'Well he stopped his paper last week be
cause I thought a farnur was a blamed
fKI who didn't know that timothy was a

aud he died in less than four hours.'
'Lord is that so V said the astonished

'W..1! I'mIi nfi,:, i i

happy father of twins, and congratulated
him on his success so late in life. He fell
dead within tweuty minutes. There's lots
of similar cases, but it don't matter. I'll
just cross your name off, though you don't
look strong, and there's a bad color on your

A Statistician says married women
live two years longer than spinsters. An
exchange, therefore, charges that every
man who refuses to marry shortens come
woman's life just two years, aud thus
practically commits homicide, and follows
tip the allegation by calling on the grand
juries to find bills against bachelors over
thirty years old.

the eick of every disease man is heir to.
They are a gentle Purgative as well as a
Tonic, relieving Congestion or Inflammation
of the Liver and Visceral Organs in Bilious
Disease g.

Ticks ox Lambs. A correspondent of the
Country Gentleman asks for a remedy for ticks
on Iambs, and here is the answer he get :
"For 100 Iambs boil np 6 or 7 pounds or plog
tobacco, or twice that quantity of stems from
the cigar factory, in 8 or 10 gallons of water.
Put a part of this liquor into a tub or large ket
tle, diluting with water, but not so roncn as to
weaken the strength so that it will not kill ticks.
PlaCK a wide plank with one end resting on the
edjio of the tub and the other supported a little
higher. Take the Iambs by the legs and nose,
dipping thein all over in the liqnor, except the
mouth and nostrils. Lay them on the plank aud
squeeze all tbe liquor jossib:e from the wool aud
let them go. A little practice will enable jou
to so dilute the liquor that it 'will nearly all be
used np when the last Iamb is dipped, and still
be or requsite strength. If the operation U re
peated about two week alter shearing, thj
ticks will probably be exterminated from tie
fiock. They can surely be exterminated by dv
ping old and young after shearing, In the tobie
o water, to which has been added about ojc
fonrth ol a pound of arsenic to 100 head.
What plowing, digging and harrowing are
to the land, thinking, leflecting nnd exauning
are to the mind. Each has its proper citure ;
aud, as the land that is suffered to lie jrass and
wild for a long time will be oversprea with
brushwood, brambles, thoras and weeds, whieh
have neither use nor beauty, po there 111 not
fail to sprout up in a neglected, nnc tlvated
mind a number of prejudices und abstd opin
ions, which own their origin parly to ttsoil it
self, the passions aud imperfections ofne mind
of man, and partly to those seeds whi chance
to be scattered in it by every kind o doctrine
whieh the cunning of demagogues, le singu
larity of pedants, and the supcrstil.o of fools
raise.
Our exchanges are full of plans tocstroy the
potato-beetle, some of them good eugh, and
some of them absurd enough. We Te already
printed a great deal of valuable-nformatlon
about this matter. " For large patcs or plant
ings, nothiog coald be more efleual than the
"buggy and pan," as described J an low cor"
respondent ; and for an acre of0 to take a two
quart fruit-can, knock ont oi end, fix tightly
iu a wooden bead, in that fatten a handle four
or five feet in length ; nate a hole iu the other
end to pour in the Paris green and flour, one
pound of poison to 'n of flour. Perforate the
rest of the can with holes like in a common
dredging-box, walk tlong the rows on the wind
side, and dust away a the morning when the
dew is on or after a nln. Repeat as often as
may be necessary. Tliere is not tb least (laa
ger from the poison with care ; at leaot we bare
not heard of anybody being injure! by it ; and
as to the beetle they are as harmless to handle
as other ordinary insects.
Changing Seed. A change of seed in agri
cultural operations is almost always beneficial.
Growing the same crop in one locality from the
same seed, year after year, often tends to de
terioration. The ndvisibility of this change of
seed from one locality to another, is the oat crop.
Seed grown in the cool atmosphere and soil of
Northern Vermont and Canada, is found to be
more luxuriant when resown in the Middle and
Western States, and nuifonnlj turns out heavier
weight to the bushel. If the same seed U sow n
every year, in the latter States, without new im
portation, the produce per acre, and the weight
per bushel gradually deteriorate.
There is great danger in turning stock on a
grass field on which plaster has been recently
sown, or until the plaster has been taken np
either by rain or h"avy dews. At Roanoke, Va,
some stock turned upon a field on the same day
on which it was plastered, ail died in a few hoars.
There were no indications of 'hoven,' the stock
being iu good condition, and the sudden death
was believed to be solely tbe effect of the sol -phate
of lime.
HOUSEHOLD.
Cooking Kuubaub. Rhubarb is best cnt in
lengths, boiled uwater and sugar, and served
with boiled rice nund the dish ; or it may be
treated like "Gooseberry fool." A little good
cream gives it a delicate taste, which it never
has in a pudding or tart. Tbe fa' owing are ex
cellent recipts for making rhubarb jam and
nnaramlade : Cut the rhubarb as if for tarts,
and to every quart give one pound of good moist
sugar; put the sugar over the rhubarb, and
leave it twenty-four houis to diaw out the juice.
By this method the pieces of rhubarb remain
separate from each other when the preserve is
done. It .keeps gooa a year if kept in jars well
dried and in a dry place. For tbe marmalade
procure six oranges, peel them, and take away
the white rind and pips, then slice the pulp into
a stew-pan along with the peel, cut very small ;
add thereto one quart of rhubarb, cnt finely,
aud from one pound to one pound and a half of
sugar. Boil the whole down iu tbe nsnal way,
as for other preserves. Mude in this inauncr,
it is nearly equal to Scotch marmalode, which is
regarded on all hands to be the finest anywhere
made. Gennautotcn Telegraph.
A Perpetual Paste. To make perpetual
paste v.hich will remain sweet for a year dis
solve a teaspoonful of alnm iu a quart of water,
to which add sufficient flour to make a thick
cream. Stir in half a teaspoonful of powdered
resin and bal f a dozen cloves, to give a pleasant
odor. Have on the fire a teacup of boiliDg wa
ter, pour the flour mixture into it, stirriug well
nt the time. In a few minutes it will be of the
consistence of much. Pour it into an earthen
vessel ; let it cool ; lay a cover on, aud put it in
a cool place. When needed fur nse, take out a
portion aud soften it with warm water.
From Godct Lcuhft Book.
Damsons. Four ounces of suaar and half a
pint of wa'cr, to be boiled for ten minutes ; one
pound of damsons to be added, and simmered
gently from ten to twelve minntes.
JELLIES.
Currant. Mah and strain the currants.
Boil the juice and skim it. To each piul of the
juice allow one pound of loaf-sugar. Measure
the juice when it is boiled, and then throw the
sngur into a pan, and make a syrup of it with a
little titer. Then add to It the juice, and let it
boil rapidly till done. Jellies should always be
mude quickly. Those who are very particular,
use only the juice which first flows through the
straiuin bag, us the thicker particles which
come through when the bag is squeezed prevent
its being so brilliantly clear. Jelly should a'
ways be boiled like preecrvuo. if boiled a second
time it w ill uot be Jelly, but only of the consist
ence of syrup.
Strawberry. Express the juice from the
fruit through a cloth, riraln it c.ear, weigh, and
stir to it and equal proportion of tbe finest -sugar,
dried aud reduced to powder ; when this
Is dissolved, place the preserving-pan over a very
clear fire, and stir the jelly often until it boils;
clear it carefully from scum, and boil It quickly
f rom fi ltcen to twenty-five minutes. This receipt
Is for a moderate quantity of tbe preserve ; a
very smail portion will reqnire inuch less time.

Respected Friend. My wife sencs yon two
good old -fashioned Quaker receiptsor yonr epe
eial bttwflt. Quaker wives and mothers are
generally practical housekeepers, devoting more
time to tbe kitcken and less to fashionable
visiting than the ladies of other religions so
cieties. For the above reason their husbauds
suffer less with dyspepsia and live to a greater
age (on an average) than others less fortunately
connected.
To Stbw Cranberries. One quart of berries
to 1 lb. of white sngar, one-half pint of water ;
when the water is dissolved and the simp boils,
put in the fruit and boil for fifteen or twenty
minutes. Pnt iu a mould, and if done right
they will turn out in proper shape. If the ber
ries ure inferior it may take rather longer to
cook.
Dried Beec Piut of salt.teaeup of brown su
gar,teaspoon of saltpetre.roixed well together,for
every twenty ponnds of beef. Divide the mix
ture into four equal parts, lay the meal on a
board nnd rnb one of the parts in every consecu
tive morning for fonr mornings. On the fifth or
sixth day it will be ready to hang np. If the
mixture is done in cold weather, and the mix
ture well rubbed in, it will keep during the hot
test weather, or until used. We like it best with
being smoked ; ia nice broiled while new, or
frizzled with cream ; equally so chipped and
eaten raw. . p. n.
