CHEAT Srwmrrai FOB COFFER. —Take
two qnart* of wheat bran, and one tea
cup ixf molasses, or syrup. Stir together
till thoroughly mixed. Let it dry grad
ually in a moderate oven. It will be
when dry in small lump*, about the size
of coffee grains. Brown this like common
coffee, and use alxvut the same projec
tions. No grinding is necessary. Dvs-
I>ept> find this beverage agreeable, and
more nutritious than jxirehed rye, wheat,
or barley.
Licrrrc* IN WINTER. —It is said that
lettuce can be produced in Winter in
from twenty-four to forty-eight hours by
taking a box filled with rich earth, iu
which one-third part of slaked lime hail
been mixed, and watering the earth with
lukewarm water -, then taking seed which
hail previously been softened by soaking
in strong brandy for twenty-four hours,
and sowing in the usual way. We are
assured, but will not vouch for the fact,
that a good sised he.nl of lettuce may be
obtained in the time mentioned.
DOWN ON MOTH TRAWL-J. H. Martin.
Hartford, N. Y., tell* the Farmers' nub.
" I am a bee-keeper, and always found
the so-called moth-traps the greatest
curse the bee-keeper can introduce into
his apiary. Moths certainly do congre
gate in them, and a wry little neglect
make* the congregation too large for or
dinary apianes to survive. It is impos
sible to keep moth worms from the hive.
The moth will lay its eggs upon tlie alight
ing board and upon the blossoms daily
visited by the bee*. The eggs stick to
the bee and are carried into tlie very
centre of the hive. The only safety and
the very best moth-trap is to keep the
swarm strong. Wood and glass and al
most every other substance has been tor
tured into hundreds of patent hive*. But
any farmer with a little ingenuity can
make a good plain movable comb-hive."
A PATENTED PREPARATION for oniAHlCUt
ing floors is made bv immersing eleven
and a half pounds of finely divided wax
in a boiling solution of six pounds of
potash dissolved in rain water. As soon
as the foaming cease*, the boiling is to
be stoppeJ, and six pounds of finely
ground yellow ochre are introduced and
stirred around ; after which the mass is
placed in dishes and allowed to become
hard. For use, one pound is to be
diluted in two and a half measures of
boiling water, so as to form a homoge
neous broth, and well stirred. This is to
be applied by means of a brush upon the
floor, and w hen perfectly dry is to be
rubbed down and polished bv mean* of
a rough, coarse sheepskin, this prep
aration is said to give a fine luster, and
docs not lose its color, while at the same
time it is very cheap.
BOILING POTATOES. —I am anxious to
atld my experience to that of others
about boiling potatoes. The subject is
one tli.it cannot be discussed too much,
because there is nothing upon our table
better than a well-eooked potatoe, and
nothing less palatable than if badly
cooked ; and yet how seldom do we find
a dish of properly -cooked potatoes, even
• in families who are gocd livers. When
thev come to the table smoking hot with
their " jackets" on all bursting with the
floury inside, it is a sight to make a dys
peptic good-natured, and never will fail
to turn a sullen face into wreathing
smile*. Then let me say a few words
about cooking this vegetable, and tell i
the way in which I have been most sne- j
ceasfnl. To boil potatoes, let them lie j
in cold water six hours, at least, before '
boiling {twelve hours for very old pota
toes is not too long l . Then put them in '
a little water, a little salted, and the !
water should be kept at a moderate boil j
till they are done, which should be tested
with s fork ; then pour off the water and
let them stand in the pot till dry. Great
care should lie taken not to let them boil!
a moment after they are done, as it will
render them watery. An exeelleut plan |
to make old potatoes mealy is to turn j
them into a cloth and rapidly shake i
them about, or take them one at a time
in a cloth and slightlv press them. The
larger potatoes should be put into the
pot before the smaller ones, that they ;
may bs equilly done. It requires from
forty to fifty minutes to boil old pota
toes. New ones will take about half the
time.
A Sad Accident at Canton.
An accident at Canton has attracted
considerable attention among the native
population. The foreign settlement of
Shameen is built on an artificial island,
separated from tlie mainland by a canal,
across which two or three taridges were
built by British engineer*, under whose
supervision the island was filled in. A
few days since a Chinese house on the
native side of the canal caught fire, and
two fire-engines took nptheir position on j
one of these bridges, the better to com- |
mand the burning building. The
bridge was crowded with natives work- i
ing at Uie engines with considerable zeal
and effect, when suddenly, without H
moment's warning, the trretlework gavi- j
way, and engines and men were precipi- j
tated into the canal. Home were crash
ed beneath the engines, and many more
lreneaili the huge timbers of the struc
ture, while other* were drowned before
help could be extended to them. It is
computed that there were from eighty
to one hundred persons on the bridge
when it collasped, few of whom escaped
with their lives. Eighteen corpses only
have thus far been rceoverrd, bnt several
yet remain beneath the debris at the bot
torn of the canal. The fabric having
been constructed by British engineers,
advantage is, of course, token of the
fact by the anti-foreign agitator* of the
city, and considerable ill-feeling has, in
consequence been mainifested, though
happily, as yet, confined in words.
German and French Losses.
A German writer estimates the French
losses in the war at 500,000 men, 150,000
horn du combat by death or wounds. He
estimates the German loss at 200,000
men. The Germans occupy 1,500 Ger
man square miles of French territory,
containing about 6,000,000 of inhabit
ants. This is a sixth of the land and of
the people, and Paris is excluded. The
Germans have been obliged to equip the
French railroads very largely with their
own stock. But the railroads cannot do
the business, and long caravans are mov
ing in the highways. In Nancy it is no
uncommon thing to see caravans of from
150 to 200 two-horaj peasant wagons ar
riving, taking oats, Ac., direct from
Dresden and Leipsic to the troops before
Paris. Such a journey occupies, from
Dresden to Nancy, about four weeks and
a half, and from Nancy to Versailles,
about fourteen days, so that about
an average period of two months are
taken up in tne transportation. In many
parts of Germany not a peasant wagon
is left, and ordinaiy merchandise busi
ness on the railroads ha* ceased.
A GENTLEMAN of leisure and scientific
tastes, living near Glasgow, Scotland,
gives to the world the following : While
out walking, he observed two bees is
suing from one of the hives, and bearing
thedefunct body of a comrade, with
which they flew for a distance of twelve
yards. He followed them closely, and
noted the care with which they secured
a convenient hole at the aide of the gravel
walk, the tenderness with which they
committed the body, head downward, to
the earth, and the solicitude wi'h which
they afterward pushed two little stones,
doubtless "in memoriam." Their teak
being ended, they paused a moment,
perhaps to drop ovei the grave of their
friend a sympathizing tear, and then
flew away to their hive.
THE Journal des DebcUs says that du
ring the three year* allowed for the pay
ment of the war indemnity, 50,000 Prus
sian troops will occupy Champagne, ex
eroisiiig the right of recognition and liv
ing at the expense of the French Gov
ernment. If the payment is completed
before the time expires, Champagne will j
be immediately evaluated.

AFRICAN AMAZONS.— TIie Amazon sol
diers, who form the corps d'ilile of the
army of Dahomey, are principally the
wives of the old soldiers or the favored
subjects of the king. They are officered
by their own sex, and allowed no license
whatever. So strict is the law with re
gard to chastity that death is inevitably
the penalty of dereliction. They are
served, as in the seraglios of the East, by
eunuchs, who are rewarded for the dis
covery of any case of frailty, if the
charge be proved and the delinquent be
not one of the flock for which the in
former is responsible. In time of war
these women receive from the king one
dollar for every prisoner they take, and
are allowed to retain the plunder captured
from the enemy.
Selling by Wright.

It ia the only honest wny of buying and

ela Few people stop to think atxiut it
There is no law ilung the standard of
a barrel of apple* or other fruit that we
know of. If a producer is honest enough
to send his apples in harrela containing
two and a half to three bushels, there
are plenty of dealer* dishonest enough
to transfer them to barrel* that cnitt*jti

m ttie one imttaiuv from one-third to
one-half less (actual weight) for his

unjust to the consumer, but to the poul
terer who keeps large and improved
breeds of chickens. True, a dealer may
charge more pwrdoaan for the lar,;e than
for trie small one*. Some retailer* do ;
but the retailer pays the commission
merchant no more per dor en f,>r a Ivor

Death Rather than Housework.
Suicide* are now becoming exceedingly
general. Few days IMISS without some
attempt at self-iuuruer, and t loac ue
cunuices are mostly aumug those who
are young, and who have comparatively
little worldly experience. Elanor Kirk,
writing to the Elisabeth Hern'>i of a re
cent suicidal attempt in Brooklyn savs:
The principal gossip iu social circle*,
is the attempted suicide of a young
married woman in East Brooklyn. The
husband is a moderately wealthy man of
good standing and reputation, but ex
tremely eccentric iu certain directions.
No servant* are allowed in his establish
ment, and his wife, who has no taste for
domestic occupations, finally became so
disgusted with the ceaseless round of
scrubbing and working, preparing
meals and cleaning them away, that she
concluded she would expose the un
known, and liave a change at any rate,
in her letter of farewell, sli-> staLil that
she liad no fault to find with her hus
band. but she was determined to seek a
spot where there were no dialieato wash.
The pistol with which she attempted to
shoot herself through the heart was
evidently anew weapon in her hands,
for the result was a slight wound iu the
left side, causing considerable physical
pain, but by no means dangerous. I
heard last evening that the man of the
house is likely to conquer his aversion to
servants, having engaged a competent
housekeeper and sufficient help to more
tlie domestic machinery, without trans
forming his wife into a mere household
drudge. Pity he hadn't inaugurated
such system" before she made them
ridiculous.
CACKLING. —FooI as a lien proves her
self to be when she cackle*. Iweatise she
lias laid an egg, she is not half such a
fool as when she ait* upon eggs and
hatches ducks, aud docs not know that
they are not chicken* until they take to
the water, and to iwting garbage, aud is
not sure of it then. Her folly liegins
when she dosn't know the difference
between her own shapely white eggs and
the pale green aquat ones of tlie duck ;
it increases to temiwuarv insanity when
she clucks aliotit with pride and scratches
for the sustenance of a lot of flat-footed
sjxKin-billed creatures, with as much re
semblance to chickens as the slender
silvery salmon liears to the slimy broad
headed codfish, and it descend* into
absolute idiocy, when she flies to an
island stone to guard her spurion* chicks
from the dangers of the mill-pond.
Mankind furnish examples of such f*Uy
and madness when they brood over ami
hatch schemes which, blinded bv the
pride of supposed maternity, they do not
recognise as not their own until the evil
which is in them begins unmistakably to
show itself, and makes manifest their
real nature. If it were not for the
warning cackle of liens the land would
lie overrun with fowls. If it were not
for the warning cackle of men a brood
of monsters might bo hatchiMl which
! would overran and disturb the world.
FISH CCLTTEK. —The Massachusetts
Society for Promoting Agriculture have
offered two liberal prizes for the liest
establishment for culture of food fishes
within that Htate. The Legislature of
Massachusetts also lias several proposi
tions before it affecting our domestic
fisheries and fish culture. The Boston
Journal says : • We are glad to witness
these evidences of an increased interest
in this general topic, liotli iu its scien
tific and its practical bearings. There i*
at/question that a much greater prajior
tion of fish might lie consumed ns food
by our people with lienflt to the public
health. Tlie mere effect of increased
variety which it should give to our tables
would not be nnimportont, especially to
sedentary and liard-worked people. We
are jnsi discovering some of the regene
rative processes, and other* are still to be
applied. It was stated on good authori
ty not long ago that there is actually
more wood growing now in Massachu
setts than there was thirty years ago.
The average fertility of the soil has nn
questionably increased in the hist quar
ter of a century. The next twenty years
now bid fair to sho.v an immense in
crease of our inland fisheries, till their
native productiveness is far exceeded.
THE FOLLOWING OORREHFONPENCB has
passed between the Emjieror of Germany
and the Czar Alexander. Tlie Emperor,
in his letter to the Czar, after stating
the terms upon which peace has Ireen
concluded, nays:
" We have arrived at the end of a glo
rious and bhswly war, which was precipi
tated by the frivolity of the French.
Prussia "rememliers that you prevented
the spread of the war. God bless you."
The Czar replied that'' he shared the
ioy which was felt by his illustrious
brother, and hoped for a durable jreaee.
He had proved a devoted friend. The
happiness and glory of Russia and Prus
sia were now insured.
WE THINK of a man's position as being
strong or weak, according to the allies of
sophistry or logic he can bring to its
support. But really no position against
the right is strong ; none with it can be
weak. Better to lie alone as the friend
of right, than with the whole world
against it.
It is estimated that 225,000,000 cubic

THIS OTHBS nzr (says the Wheeling
IntHtigcnccr ), a new device in the hand*
of Young America mode it* ap|x-*r*nee
simultaneously all over the city ; and no
doubt in every other city in the country.
It is <-a.ild the "Alleghany Whistle."
Plutonian screech would l#-* Utter. It
is very simple in it* construction, but
tejribhcin eflect. An old tin can or cup
is the twain. A holo is driven through
the bottom, n cord inserted ami fastened
by turning a knot on the end. Then the
cord is rosined and the " infernal
machine" is complete. Moid the can in
one hand and draw the thuni and fin
ger of th<" other hand rapidly along Uie
waxed cord. The result is the ino#t
harsh, hideous, rasping, demoniacal,
unearthly sound that ever grated on
human oars. All day and until n Into
hour these awful screeches could lie
heard all over the city. Yet there is
nothing the genuine Young American
enjoy* so much, and every boy who can
muster an old oyster can and a hemp
cord is just a# happy a# a clam at
high tide. The fact that everybody
else is rendered unutterably wretched
only add# to the zeal ami pungency of
hi# enjoyment.
MR. JOHN ITORRARM, who rocenUy
died ntSehiiykill Haven, weighing nearly
five hundred pouml* at the time of his
decease, wa comparatively a thin man
twenty vear# ago ; and it is generally
believed by his neighl>ors that his ex
traonlinary oliesity WM the result of his
having beim blown into the air while
blasting rocks, as soon after meeting
with such an accident ho liegan to gain
rapidly in flesh. The connection be
tween the supposed cause and effect is
hardly more obvious than in the cause
of the ancient mariner ; but that is a
matter for the medical fraternity to de
cide. Mr. Roussum was considered the
heaviest man in Pennsylvania ; he had
often pulled down 494 pounds in the
scales, though he was not quite s i heavy
when he died. It is estimated that his
coffin would have held tour ordinary
men, end eight men found it very hard
work to handle it. As there was no
ln-arse large enough for the purpose, tho
remains were taken to the cemetery on
a truck drawn by four white mules, in
compliance with a request mode by Mr.
Boussum before his death.
TH* BORES OR INSANE PBOPUL —The
number of tionea broken in the English
lunatic asylum him given occasion for a
curious scientific inquiry, and it ia now
ascertained that the ribs of crazy folks
are more brittle than the ribs of the sane.
Dr.Heardon instituted an examination of
the bones of twenty patients who died in
the Carmarthen County Asylum. In
nine of these cases " the very frame work
of the chest was found to be in an abnor
mal and diseased state." In two instances
the breast bone broke in removing it,
and generally the bones were no stronger
than stout cardboard. In one case the
surface bone was so spongy and soft that
it was easily crumbled up between the
fingers. Some of the ribs were easily cut
with a common knife, there l>eing,
through the action of the diseased brain,
a wasting away of the phosphates.
The Entry Into Pari*.
Ths entry into Pari* of Ui® Herman
army is thus de—wili—t:
At an early hour in the morning the
preparations were complete. The street®
ou the line of march were deserted, ex
cept by atrong Issliea of regular Ere nob
troops, who occupied the triangle dur
ing the night, with the intcutioii of fall
ing tank w lieu the Prussians advanced,
and taking iMiaitionN commanding Ute
approaches to the line.
At the appointed hour, lOo'clook, the
first representative eorj— of the victori
ous army entered within the cucsin/c
under the eye of His lni|M*rial Majesty,
in orcorditnco with the programme.
Favoml by aplendid weather, the

The other coluuiu, entered at Point du

of the Seine dir<et for the Place de la
Ooneorde, where the rendezvous of the
two cohuuuM is fixeil. The zone sur

The triangle was admirably chosen
for strategic pun**®*, with its right

Soon afterward another nffior with •

avenue, and liehind them, at a little dis
tance, a dozen or more huzza re. A oloud
of infantry waa aeen approaching, hut at
such a distance that the little squad of
eavulry waa for a moment entirely un

jicople on the Plaee dc la Conoorae taking
up the cry. The Uhlans disregard |
everything ; hut the National Guards at

themselves, and one officer move.s his
tnon as if to clear the square. When
the Uhlans reappeared, the inaulta re

There were no shouts and no gestures
when the Uhlans appeared ; there was
only the sarcastic cry, when the Prus

J " Don't vou wish you could ?"
One disturbance only threatened to
lieeome serious. Near the Arc de Trt
omphe, the crowds of jieoplcgrew denser
HB more and more soldiers entered.
Blouses predominated, the wearers show
ing petty spite and curiosity in equal
proportions. Throngs gathered about
any soldier separated from his comrades,
anil savage erics were sometimes heard.
Who ever answered Prussian questions
were mobbed as a spy. One mail giv
ing explanations to the Germans was fu
riously attacked, and sought protection
among the soldiers. Then some work- J
men came np behind and struck a soldier
;on the helmet. The order to fire waa
given, a panic ensued, and the people
fled precipitately. The order to fire was
at once countermanded, however, and a
massacre waa averted.
Home of the Germans wished to naaw
the line of demarcation, offering their
hands and saying "Now peace is con
cluded wo are friends," but were repuls
ed with the reply, "We are conquered,
hut with the conditions imposed by
Bismarck we never can be friends."
Home disguised Prussians officers
penetrated into the city but were aoon
recognized, and their lives being in dan
ger from the populace, were protected
by the authorities and reconducted to
the German lines.

A MOST amusing and ludicrous sight it
was to see the attempt* made to get the
elephant on Ixrnrd the Yoager, says the
New Orleans HrptMicm* \Vlien he was
brought to the stage plonk he ohjootod
to going on lward. and when a compul
sorv movement was made to get his
majesty to walk up to the captain's office
and settle, he let n load yeU, and so
terrified the crowd who bad assembled to
take a free look, that an indiscriminate
and wild panic took place. No serious
accident resulted, and elephant, drome
daries and the whole show were soon on
board in safety. Captain Dan Urndr
was ao confused during the melee that he
i ordered the porter of the lxt to go
down a®d bring up that passenger's
trunk—ofeonrse meaning the elephant's.
The elephant was disgusted, however,
nud carried his own trunk on board, not
even allowing the porter to check it.
All Irish soldier who liad been abrood
Wing asked if he hail met with much
hospitality where he hail been : " Oh,
yes," replied he, "too much ; I was in
