bursliay_gorning. December 2
Tee b eu and turkey thieves are doing an es
tiSiNT business in our city. Scarcely a night
:so but what some one or wore ben roosts
• cleaned out. Our citizens should be on the
i vice for these rascals.
TUN GALLANT SIXTH.—The Sixth Pennsylva
,: Regiment was in the hotte.t of the late
;ht near D,ainsville, find they stood their
nod as boldly, and as dent as regulars. The
D. Cameron infantry of Middletown, in this
muty, is attached to this regiment, which com
iy had one man, by the name of Edgar
ith, severely -wounded in the shoulder Our
it did their work well.
Soroun's OPERA, BRANTS ' HALL. — The Holi
y pantomime—" Thu Three Legged Monster,
the Fighting Shoemaker and Tailor"—pro
,ced at this establishment yesterday was a
decl success, and a large audience was in at
udatice to witness its performance. The
Kt. is full of fun, and kept the audience in one
, n ti nu ed roar of laughter from begining to
d. It will be repeated this evening. The
seene —graud tableux—is alone worth the
admission.
VIE FOR FROSTED FEEL is said that frost
feet cau be speedily and certainly cured by .

Several persons have already tried it, all
whom unite in pronouncing it an effectual
re, which, if they are correct, is an easy and
, eap mode of getting rid of a very sore and
,udesome of ction Those who have tried it
forms us that the feet should be warmed by a
,t stove during and after the application of
e oil, and it will certainly effect a speedy cure.
.rsons suffering from the pain of frosted feet
I no doubt do well in giving it a trial, for it
surely a very cheap ointment and one which
very easily applied.
A PLEASANT PARTY.—Not the least interest
g of the many pleasant sociable re-unions and
erty-makings incident to the festivities of
:terday, occurred last night in the lodge room
Advance Lodge No. 89, I. 0. of Good Tem
' ars. After the transaction of the ordinary
siness of the Lodge meeting, a handsome co
tton was spread, the merits of which were
!mussed by the ladies and gentlemen present
th a zest that bore conclusive evidence that
e feast was heartily enjoyed. These arrange
ents concluded, the members indulged in
A ging temperance odes and.glees, and various
ocent sports and pastimes, until the "wee
all hours awant the twall," when they sep
:ted, all in the best possible humor and high
pleased with the festivities of the occasion.
ST. Joint's DAL —Next Friday is the anniver-
Ty of the birth of St. John, the Evangelist,
d the masonic fraternity of this city will
immemorate the occasion by a supper aj the
'shier House. For the ii,formation of our
ere who may be curious to know why the
asons celebrate St. John's day, we append the
hewing which we clip from an exchange :
edges in aneitnt times were dedicated to King
Boman, the fast M. E G. M.., and continued
be so dedicated until after the Crusades.—
mong the various orders of Knights engaged
those chivalric wars, none were more con-
Actions than the magnanimous order of the
nights of St. John. Many brethren of tile
, icient craft also went forth to aid in redeem
g the sepulchre of the Saviour from the hands
the infidels. Between these and the Knights
St. John there existed a reciprocal feeling of
otherly love. On the plains of Jerusalem
;, ey entered into a solemn compact of friend
'i'p, and it was mutually agreed between them
at henceforth all lodges, whose members ae
iowledged the divinity of Christ, should be
edieated to St. John, the Evangelist, who was
`i e eminent Christian patron of Freemasonry.

ri Muer CHRISTMAS These words were fully
• alized yesterday, at least iu this city. It was
ought by many that we would have a dull
.rietuee,—tt holiday shriveled with want, and
t . arred in all its wonted pleasures ; but so far
• .rn this being the ease, every family seemed
epared more sumptuously than on former
..rs, to enjoy a merry time and full feast.
.e fat roast an the dainty sauce were exten
' vely indulged iu. The children had pennies,
le larger folk quarters, and the heads of fami
'es dollars to spend for good things; not only
~.. ruforts, but luxuries were provided in great
bundance. Presents went the rounds, and
ostly of a substantial and valuable nature.
of only did lovers and their ladies exchange
ikens of mutual affection ; friends gave keep-
Sakes to friends ; parents give heart-gladdenere
to their children, and wives remembered their
husbands in their gifts; but even the heart of '
the husband was moved to the thought of making
Present to his wife. And surely when this is '
the ease, the Christmas must indeed be merry.

BOYS our AT N/GIRT.—AII exchange truly re
marks that the practice of allowing boys to
spend their evenings in the street is one of the
most ruinous, dangerous and mischievous tbings
possible. - Nothing so speedily and surely marks
their course downwark. They acquire under
cover of the night, an unhealthy state of mind,
vulgar and profane language, obscene practices,
criminal sentences, and a lawless and riotous
bearing. Indeed, it is in street after nightfall,
that boys generally acquire the education and
capacity for becoming rowdy, dissolute, crimin
al men. Parents, do you believe it? Will you
keep your children home nights, and see that
their home is made pleasant and profitable.
M
Bon DON'T DO IT. —The merry little "snow
birds" have been with us once or twice, and the
number is constantly increasing. Their sweet
twitterings are cheering although a warning
token of the season. We notice, however, that
some thoughtless boys are pursuing these inno
cent and harmless birds with stones and arrows.
Such boys ought to know that if the law did
not forbid it, they ought to know that such tor
menting cruelty shows a very depraved taste,
and frightens the welcome little visitors away
and leaves us nothing to remind us of a bright
summer. Boys, leave the birds alone. They
are entitled to your protection instead of your
hostility. They do no harm, but are a source of
pleasure and enjoyment to all good people who
cherish their company. Boys, spare the charm
ing birds of winter ;..von can find better amuse
ment than in stoning and shooting them.
Tun COUNTY Iterrrrtrrs.—Teachers and friends
of education generally, should not forget the
meeting of the county Institute which com
menced its sessions in this city on Tuesday.
The holiday vacation, affording as it does to
teachers, the opportunity of attending without
loss of time, is perhaps the most favorable sea
son for a meeting of this character, the schools
generally not being in session at that time, and
the appointment appears to be satisfactory so
far as we have been able to consult with the
teachers of the county. That Teacher's Insti
tutes have heretofore exerted a beneficial influ
ence as a means of improvement in the teach
er's profession, and in fitting them for the suc
cessful practice of that profession, will not be
denied, and while it is manifest that much, has
already been effected through this instrumen
tality, yet it is equally true that much yet re
mains to be accomplished.
Let every, teacher, therefore, who is anxious
to secure greater proficiency in the profession,
and advancement in hie or her calling, and
who can conveniently do so, be found in at
tendance, as well as all others who may feel in
terested in a subject of so much importance to
ourselves, to society, and to our common
country.
Isnanitsvngt TO Houssmitssats.—"Clinkers:"
We presume most of our readers who use coal
are vexatiously aware of the fact that some
qualities form clinkers which adhere to the fire
brick lining of stoves, grates and furnaces, and
become a source of great annoyance, as they
c tnnot be removed by usual means without
breaking the firebrick.. Persons who are thus
annoyed will be glad to know that by putting
a few oyster shells in the fire close to the clink
ers, the latter will become so loose as to be rea
dily removed without breaking the lining. We
have frequently removed clinkers by this sim
ple means, since it was first recommended in
the Scientific American some years ago, and know
that there is no mistake about it. A very few
shells placed occasionally around the fire-brick,
and touching it if possible, will not only remove
this annoyance, but effectually prevent its for
mation. It is on account of this quality of oys
ter shells and limestone that iron founders use
them as a flux in melting down iron .in their
furnaces or cupolas.
Gmsa PnEssarni.—Each holiday has its pe
culiar feature ; and to every pfirpose there is a
season. When Easter comes, then too comes
the " picking matches" with colored eggs, and
everybody who can, fettits on the nutritious
albumen. On the Fourth of July, shooting
crackers are popping in every direction ; na- 1
tional airs are sung in every circle ; and patriot- 1
ism is considerably "above par." Our friends
celebrate their birth-days, or the anniversary of
marriage, by giving us a dainty supper, or by
" making a party." But the December holi
days, from Christmas to New. Years, are espe
cially set aside for the giving and receiving of
presents. Thousands of tokens .of friendship,
keepsakes and testimonials of love are exchanged
annually during these gala days. It is eminently
proper that it should be so. It is a transaction in
which no one is loser, yet everybody is gainer.
While these presents are sometimes of a double
value, having in addition to the emblematic
/alue, an intrinsic worth, it must be evident to
all that much money is unwittingly expended
on mere gewgaws and futile nothings. Things
neither of lasting beauty, nor of practical util
ity. Books in flashy binding and filled with
silly trash ; jewelry that the recipient would be
better without; sweet meals and play things
of a days duration, are the common presents.
We have seen foolish young ladies and gentle
men spend from one dollar to five, for a flimsy
Valentine, which was supposed in some way to
inspire love. Much better present a fine port
folio, a valuable book or some article that will
be a compliment to the donor's judgment, an
acknowledgement of the recipients intelligence,
and at the same time a token of worthy friend
ship. The books for young men should be of
the class of Beecher's Lectures or Timothy
ritcomb's writings. Indeed, we know of no
more valuable new books for a young man than
Titcomb's last work "Lessons in Life." We
saw this work at Bergner's Book store and
were BO well pleased with it, that we could not
run btit the risk of waiting for a present of one,

things of the season ; let nn have them in

A Cas►P SUBSTITUTE, FOR COFFER.— We haA 6
tried the experiment of one-third coffee, and
two-thirds browned wheat, as - a substitute for
coffee, and find but slight difference between it
and the genuine article. This fact is an impor
tant one to coffee consumers We advise those
having land to spare for the purpose, to plant
next year, the Chine e sorghum, for the pur
pose of rendering it into sugar and syrup.—
The admixture of wheat will neutralize the
power of tea and coffee.

RECEIPT FOR CURING BM AND Perm—At this
period in this season, when farmers and others
are putting down their winter's, and, we may
add, their next year's meat, it may be of ser-,
vice to publish the following receipt:—Tei one
gallon of water take one ancfa half pounds of
salt, a half pound of brown sugar, a half ounce
of saltpetre, and a half ounce of potash. in
this ratio the pickle to be increased to any
quantity desired. Let these be boiled together
until all the dirt from the salt and sugar rises
to the top, and is skimmed off. Then throw
the pickle into a large tub to cool, and whrn
cold, pour it over your beef or pork, to remain
the usual time, say from four to six weeks, ac
cording to the size of the pieces, and the kind
of meat. The meat must be well covered with
the•pickle, and it should not he put down for at
least two days . erfter killing, during which time
it Should be slightly sprinkled with saltpetre.—
The above is
for
as an old and oft
tried receipt for curing meat, and one which
has always given satisfaction.
