fry them in butter notil brown; then
fry two dozeu tomatoes just sufficiently
to heat the'u through, and put them into
a stow pan with their gravy aad,the onions

Tjurrr CAXDY.— Put iuto a pan or
shallow vessel a quarter of a pound of
butter and a pound of brown sugar ; set
it npon the tire, and stir together for
fifteen minutes, or until a little of the
mixture dropped into a hasin of water
will lvk dean through the teeth with
out sticking to them. Flavoring of any
kind desired should be added just be
fore the cooking is completed. The taf
fy should, when done, be poured into a
shallow dish, which is buttered on the
bottom and edges.
VBITIUIBO Room.—An ingenious
and elegant arrnngam—t for ventilating
rooms consists in inserting in one of the
windows a pane of glass having four
holes cut into it Upon this paue a see
on t round plate, having also four round
boles of the same sir*, is so attached
that it may be easily made to rotate iu
close iwntact. To admit fresh air, the
rotating iliac is turned so that both sets
of openings coincide; to reduce the
amount or to exclude it. it is only ne
cessary to make a slight turn of the
plate.
TREATMENT OF SMALL-POX SUBJECT*
—During the prevalence of small-pox iu
Paris last sprin* the police authorities
required the bodies of those dying from i
it to be sponged in a liquid composed of j
one hundrod and eighty grains ofoarbolic
acid in a quart of distilled water. For
merly chloride calcium was used ; bat
this hail the great inconvenience of
rendering it almost impossible for any
one to remain in the room with a corpse.
The carbolic acid solution in question is
said to have all the advantages of chloride
of calcium with none of its inconven
iences.
RAJSINO TI-RKETS.—'The turkey is the
most tender when young, and most diffi
cult to raise of all the domestic fowls ;
yet with proper care in setting the eggs
under game bens and cooping the brood
at night regularly, while the turkeys are
young, they may be easily reared in great
abandonee. Never feed the young tur
keys boiled eggs or corn meaf dough, or
wheat bread crumbs. They need very
little food of any kind under seven days
of age, and should have nothing but soar
milk in pans. At about a week or ten
days give them also wheat screenings or
crumbs soaked in sour milk. Let this be
their only feed till they liegin to feather,
and then give them grain of auy kind.
Tie the hen (which has the young tur
keys) to a peg off to herself, with a coop
near by her so that she can enter at night
to roost At two weeks old let the hen
loose to roam, and if she is a game hen
she will do the work of rearing the
brood.— Prairie Firmer.
FRENCH PRESERVED BREAD.—A new
artiele called preserved bread has lately
been introduced into Paris as a substi
tute for biscuit or hard-tack, for travel
ers, and for naval and military stores
generally. Bread prepared in the ordi
nary way is first submitted to a drying
process for from eight to fifteen days,
until every particle of moisture is elimi
nated. It is then compressed to the ut
most, so as to occupy the leant bulk,
having bean previously exposed for a
short time to the action of steam in a
suitable ve**eL The loaves are then
piled npon iron platen with rims, which
serve as moulds during the operation.
These plates are then pnmi under a hy
draulic press, subjected to great pressure
and aliowe<l to coo! there during twenty
four hours. The cakes thus obtained
are placed in boxes, sealed up, and. if
kept from moisture, can be preserved
for many years. This bread has a vitre
ous fracture, but the teeth penetrate it
without effort. It softens readily in
soup, and for many purposes is very
much superior to the preparations usu
ally employed under the yw. circum
stances. especially pn account of being
leavened
COOKING NEW POTATOES.— New pota
toes, when they first appear, are consid
ered a delicacy, though not so whole
some as the old, unices they are perfectly
ripe, and can be cooked without being
made waxy. If they are plainly boiled,
a sprig of mint will be found a moot
pleasant addition. The following is an
excellent though more elaborate way of
dressing them : Choose the potatoes as
nearly of size as possible; wash them
and rub off the outer rine; then wipe
them dry with a clean napkin. Put a
quarter of a pound of fresh batter into
stewpan ; set it on the fire, and when it
boils, throw in the potatoes. lt them
boil in the butter till they are done, tak
ing care to toss them every now and
then, so that they may all go successively
into the boiling butt?r. They must be
carefully watched, because if done too
much, they shrivel up and become waxy.
M hen the fork indicates that they are
done, they must be taken out before
they lose their crispness, put into a dish, 1
and some salt spread over them. As
soon as they are taken from the boiling
butter, a handful of parsley may be
thrown into it, and after it has had a 1
boil or two, laid upon the potatoes as • j
garnish. They must be eaten immedi
ately. This is a beautiful dish to serve
up with fish, or it may be eaten alone.
The bntter in which the potatoes were
dressed may lie poured into a jar, and
serve again for the same purpose. Old 1
potatoes may be cut into round pieces
about the size at a large walnut, and
dressed in the same way ,—Godey's La- j
dies' Book.
WHAT A CHILD CAN Do.— A little child, I
sixteen months old, is doing good mis
sionary work at the jail at Troy, N. Y. j
Its mother is a victfnj of Intemperance,
and, having been sent to the penitentiary
for six months, left her child in the jaiL i
where it had been wi h her during her'
trial. It is said to lie the perfect picture
of health and innocence, and the most
depraved and virions have a strong af
fection for the little one, which creeps to
their cells regularly and smiles in upon
them. The association with innocenoe .
and purity is often the best cure for
crime and wickedness, and it is frequent
ly found that the roughest natures may
be brought thoroughly under the oontrol
of those that are meek and gentle.

PAFEB COLLARS. —The Boston Com

! business grows in importance yearly.
! The production in Boston in 1860 was

000 ; and the rate for 1871 is 150,000,000.

increase. On the contrary, the competi
tion fs so close that it is only in im
' proved machinery and prndent close
working of stock that a percentage is
; secured. One of the largest manufac
. taring dealers asserts that if he could
; save one-eighth of an inch to each collar,
on his waste of paper, beyond the savings
of any other maker, ho should consider
that eighth of as inch a sufficient profit
in his Duainees.
The Hard Itoad.
A new book by Mrs. Phelps is just

. our the ro*|Himubiliiy of briugiug iuto
the world children to undergo the MUUC
mi*erie* that *hc lis* endured
The two young people turned a couple
of corners ou the way to the stone house
in thoughtful wili-iii-*-. They were HIIIIOII
tin young to be so thoughtful ami so
silent ; more especially the vouilg limu,
growing nervous, ami taking furtive,
anxious glances at the girl's face.
It was an inscrutable face.
Sip had stint her h'Mclose ; she looked
straight ahead ; the hro* u dull tinta of
( hereheeka ami temples eaiuo out like a
curtain, ami folded all young colon* ami
tlushea ami tremors, all ho)>e and ftar,
all longing or piir(Hi*e, need or (nllueas
in her, out of sight. She only looked
straight on ami wmt*il for Dirk to
speak.
She quite kuew that and a hat he,
would s|euh. When he liegau, nrtwnUv,
with a quivering face, " Well, Sip, 1
don't see th.it I'm getting on any iu the
mills, after all," she was neither surprised
iiit off her guanl. She was not yet
tweutv-throe, but she was too old to In
put off her guanl hi a young man with
a quivering face. If die had a thing to i
do, she meant to do it ; put her hands j
together iu that way she li.nl, bent at the
ktmeklea, resolutely.
"No," she said —"No; you'll never
get any farther, Dirk. "
" But 1 meant to," said Dirk, holly.
" I thought I should ! Mehbeyou think
it's me that's the trouble, uot the gvttiug
on !"
"Perhaps there is a trouble about
vou," said Hip, honestly; " I don't
km>w ; and 1 don't much care whether
there is or not. lint I think must of the
(rouble is in the getting ou. Mills ain't
maile to get ou in It ain't easy, 1 know.
Dirk. It ain't. It's the stay uig put of
'em, that's the worst of 'em. Ikm't I
know? It's the staying put that'a the
mutter with most o" folks iu the world, it
seems to me. For we are the most o'
folks—us that tav put, you know,"
" Are we ?" said l>irk, u little puzzled
by Sip's social speculation*. " But I'm
getting steady |>*y now. Sip, at any rate;
and I've a steady chance. Gurrick'a a
friend o' mine, I i>clieve. and has sliowtil
himself friendly. He'll kip iu the
watch, at least— Mr. Garriek. 1 might
lie worse off than ou watch, Sip."
"O yes," aaid Sip ; "you'vegot agmsl
place, l>irk."
' • With a cluuiee !" repeated Dirk.
" With a chance ? Maybe," ausweml
SijL
" .Vnd now," said Dirk, trembling sud
denly, "what with the place and the
chance— maybe, aud the jwy and the
steadiness, sure, I've been thinking, Sip,
as the time had come to ask you "
" Don't," said Sip.
All young colors und fiushe* aud
tremors, ho|>es and fears, longing and
: need, broke now out of the brown cur
tain of Sip's face. In the iiistaiit she wa
a very lonely, very miserable httle girl,
uot by any means over twenty-tlim'. and
the vottug man had eves so cruelly
kiml! But die said ; "Don't, Dirk ! O
| please, don't!"
"Well," said Dirk. He stopjiil ami
drew breath as if she had shot utm.
They had come to the atone house
now, and Sip Iwgan walking liack and
forth in front of it,
" Hut 1 w-a* going to ask you to lie uir
wife !" suid Dirk. "It's so long that I
haven't dared to ask you, and now vou
sny don't! Don't 1 llut I will; 111 ask
at any rate. Sip, will you marry me ?
Then-! I should choke if I didn't ask.
You may say what you please."
" I ot*V say what I pleas*'," said Sip,
in a lew voice, walking faster.
" I don't know what's to hinder." said
Dirk, in an iujured tone. "I always
knew- 1 wasn't half fit for von, ami I al
ways knew yon'd ought to have a man
that could get ou. But considering the
steadillßS* and the ehanee, aud tliat I
I set such a sight by you. Sin, aud some
times I've thought you—liked me well
enough, eonclmhil Dirk, candidly.
"I like you. Dirk," said Sip, slowly,
" well enough."
" Well enough to be my wife ?"
" Well enough to be your wife."
"Then I shouldn't think," observed
Dirk, simply, and with a brightening
face, "that you'd find it very hard say
ing what you please."
" Mayl* I shouldn't,'' said Hip, "if 1
could lie your wife : bnt I can't.
Her l>etit hand* fell atrart weakly ; she
did not look at Dirk ; she fixed her eves
ou a little clump of dock-weed ut her
feet, beside the fence ; she looked sick
and faint.
"I'll not marry you," raid the girl
feebly ; I'll not marry anybody. May tw
it isn't the way a girl had ought to *f-vl
when she like* a young fellow," added
Sip, with u kind of }mtient, aged bitter- j
nera crawling into her eyes. " Bnt we
don't live down here no's to make girl*
grow up like girls should, it seem* to
me. Thine* as wouldn't trouble rich
folk* trouble* us. There's tiling* that
troubles me. I'll never marrv anybody, i
Dirk. I'll never bring a child in the
world to work in the mills ; and if I'd
I ought not to ray it, I can't help it, for
it's the truth, and the reason, and Fve '
raid it to God on my knee* a many and |
a many time*. I've" said it before Catty
died, and I've raid it more than ever
since, and I'll say it till I die. IU never
I bring children into this world to be fac
; tirv children, and to be factory boy* and
! girl*, and to be factory men and women,
; and to see the sight* I've seen, and to
? bear the things Iv Vmrne, ami to run
| the rink* I've run, and to grow up as I've
grown up, and to stop where I've stopped
j —never. I've heard tell of slaves before
f the war that wouldn't be fathers and j
mothers of children to be slaves like
them. That's tlie way I feel, and that's j
the way I mean to feel. I won't In- the
; mother of a child to go and live my life j
I over again. I'll never marry anybody."
" Bnt they needn't be factory people," j
urged Dirk, with a mystified face.
" There'* trades and—other things."
"I know, 1 know," Sin nhonk hero
' head—" I know all about that They'd
never get out of the mills. " It's from
generation to generation. It couldn't
lie helped. I know. It's in the blood." ;
" But other folks don't take it so," i
urged Dirk, after a disconsolate pause.
" Other folk* marrv, and have their
home* anl the com/ort of 'cm. Other
j folks, if they love a man, 'll be his wife 1
! someway* or nuthcr."
"Sometimes," raid Sip, "I seem to
think that I'm not like other folks.
| Things come to me smneways that other
| folk* don't understand nor care for." She
crushed the dock-weed to a wounded
mam, and dug her foot into the ground,
und stamped upon it.
"I've made up my mind. Dirk. It'sj
no use talking. It—it hurts me," with
n tender motion of -the restless foot ng unst
the bruised, rough leaves of the weed
, which she was covering up with rand.
" I'd rather not talk any more, Dirk.
' There's other girls. Some other girl
will do."
" I'll have no other girl if I can't have
? you !" said poor Dirk, turning away. " I
, never could set such a sight by another
girl as I've set by you. If you don't
marry, Sip, no more U I."
Sin smih-d, but did not siieak.
" Upon ray word, I won't!" cried Dirk,
j " You wait and see. I've loved you true.
If I can't have yon, I'll have nobody 1"
But Sip only smiled.
UTILIZING FURNACE SLAG. —The new
methods of utilizing the slags of furnaces
bid fair to become of much practical im
! portance, and to convert what is now a
source of great annoyance into a product
of positive commercial value. The slag
is, of oourae, to be collected iu troughs '
or moulds of proper size and shape. But
the great difficulty has heretofore been
: in the glassy character of the product.
It is now stated that if the surface of the
melted slag, after it is run into moulds, >
be covered with earth or ashes, so as to
prevent too rapid cooling—which, in
fact, should extend over a considerable
period—and if proper precautions be ob
served, the result will be an artificial
porphyry, equal, for purposes of build
ing or rood-making, to the genuine por
phyritic rook, I

THE COAL QrESTios. —The Arbitration
Board which has been iu session at
Maiicli Chunk has adjourned. The first
; point decided in the controversy was tin
right of an owner, or leasee and operator
of a colliery, to the entire and exclusive
control and management of hi* works,
which i* guaranteed to hiai by the law
of the land and ia of such an unqiication
-1 nble character that it ought not to be in
terfered wiUi either directly or indirect
ly. This question the umpire decided
in the affirmative, the miner delegates
objecting to the decision.
Adjustment was prevented by the fol
lowing questions : Tlie miner* argued
■ that the question of wages could only Is;
jiermaiiently settled by doing away with
! the basin system, that of regulnting wa
! gea by the price of coal at Fort Carbon,
and adopting the system carried out by
the Lehigh operators, namely, that of
baaing wages on the price of coal at Eliz
nliethport. The operators contended
that this was entirelv a new issue, and
refused to arbitrate tlie question at all.
Another difficulty was that the ojs-rators
came to act on tlie question of wages in
all sections except Luzerne County, ar
! bitration having already leen voted
! down by the miners in the latter region.
! Thia was. of course, out of the question,
and after a short and excited diar-unaion
over the matter, the Board adjourned.

ABOLITION or TUB GRAND JI BY. —Tin-
legislature of Wisconsin lias presented
au net for abolition of tlm grand jury
system. The new law tokos effect 011
the Ist of July. It wa* urgucd in favor
of tho measure tliat, in the good old ihiys
we read about, when the rich enjoyed
liege facilities for oppressing tho poor,
it was a matter of no littio importance
that the man who had occasion, to lodge
information of crime against one of the
wealthy class enjoyed iu the secrecy of
the graml jury room au assurance of
immunity again, t tin* revenge of the ac
cused, if the prosecution failed, but that
such a consideration is bard'y worthy
enterihg now ; and, on the other hand,
there ia little doubt that the secrecy of
the grand jury's proceeding*, and the
fact that then- is a practical if not theo
retical lack of means for holding witnesses
before it re*|>on*iblc tor the truthfulness
of their tzstimony, is sometimes taken
advantage of by malicious persons to
injure their neighbors with impunity.
A TEKIUBLK CATASTBOriIK AVKIITED.—
Alsmt four hundred children, clad in

to partake of their first communion.
As they wore proceeding in single file
toward the altar,one of the girls accident
ally set fire to her veil, nn<T in her terror
ignited the clothing of the girls nearest
to her. Great excitement was caused by
the accident, the terrified girls running
to tho altar, when Father McDonald,
aided by several men of the congregation,
succeeded iu extinguishing the fiamos
by pouring water upon them.
Only three of the children sustained
burns, aud these are of a slight charac
ter.
THE DETROIT Trim EL. —Work on the

feet high, and the other, somewhat less,
will be built beneath and between the
two others. It will take about two years
to finish this pieee of engineering.

Onr agriculturists, while jwying
heavy taxes on all they consume, either
to the Government or to the unmopo

of the fact that the Versatile* troop* had
! armed the Gennevillic-rs redoubta, aud
placet! heavy naval guns iu position at
the Colombo* redoubt*. When the irat
J shell fell Tuatordaj from Uouthovate in
i the neqghnnrhood <f the Chateau Bcoon,
1 the National Guards took little notice of
tbem aa they were protected against a
fira in Unit dtreciiou.
HnAlenly a tremendous fin- wa* opened
fro in Colombo* aud Gennt-viOii-ra ui the
front .utd right flank of the iasiugeuts.
' The National Guard* gave way said ffeni
■ from their Uvuchm. At the some nto

insurgent* in froni The mitrailleuse*
at the barricade could only fira one
volley.
The cross fira was *0 heavy that the
insurgents wera driven arms* the Heine
in less than an hour. Domlimvski de
manded reinforcements, and the insur
gents renewed the attack, bnt they wera
xgaiu repulsed with great loan.' Flye

xll waa over. The insurgent* at Nenilly
wera forced to retreat to Porte Maillot
The bridge of boats waa broken, and
many wore drowned.
Tlie Versailles troop* gradually won
. all of the Gennevilliers peninsula, and
then attempted to posh forward over the
bridge at Asnieraa. The Guards were 5
! routed, and two twttalioo* wera taken
prisoners, and the remainder of the in
surgent* were driven entirely to their
own side of the Heine.
In a re)>ort mode to|the Commune,
; Gen. Cluf-eret claims to have repulsed
the Versailles Armv at all point*. Other
accounts declare that the fighting was
| murderous, and say that the village of
(\>urcclles. on the right bank of the'
Seine, between Nemlly and CHehy. is '
filled with wounded. It is stated' that'
an armistice was concluded for the burial
of the dead, aud to allow the iuhaliitanta
of Neuilly and Clichy. and other towns
under bombardment, to remove to place*

A demonstration has la-en mode by the
English Democrat* in Paris, at which
rcAoliiikin* wera adopted congratulating
the Commune upon ita raecoas. The
Daily If**'"' special dispatch from Pari*
says thera ara serious dissensions among
the members of the Commune. Com
