Woman's ideal man could hardly fail to contain much matter not only in structive to the philosopher, but also in the last degree useful "to persons intending to niarry ;" and we strongly recommend the idea to the notice of any young aspiring author in search of a subject. Tart two will of course be the one most interesting w the male reader; and what a vista, when we come to reflect upon it, doe it not oen out ! There is often an attractive wiircte about lady novelists which ena bles us to sec more deeply into their views on these subjects than is possible with their male compeers, who are too apt in their character sketches to allow their imaginations to be hampered by impertinent consideration of natural ness and reality. From the lady novel ist, therefore," there is much to be gleaned on the subject of ideals. The true seciiiieti of idealism, however, i scarcely to be met with among the lady novelists of our own day. We find the ideal man in his ieri:ection in such novels as Miss Burney's and her imita tors, for Miss Biirne'y had crowds of imitators, who have since been con signed to a complete and happy obliv ion. - Sneh ideals a- these may well put a man of an v modesty to tho blush. Can it be pos-siblt that these sweet nnsoph iscated souU ever expected to find such walking catalogues of virtue among T The thought seems too overwhelming till we observe that the ideals of these d:iys were always nobleman. .. We have ground for hoting that even then no comrnonor could have leeii found to conform to such a standard. We may trust, therefore,-tliat" when these de lightful authoresses got married, the awakening was not so complete, nor the disapxiutnient so bitter as might have been supposed.' However that may be,this type which we may call the romantic, or romantic-chivalrous, ideal, seems to be dead among us now. Noth ing, so far aa we can judge, could he more completely out of fashion. This is. however, bv do - means -nay ing that he may not suddenly turn up agaia, if not in the same, 111 a very slightly al tered form. J-'or not only does our study of ideals show us that thee airy creations have their changes and fash ions just as much as coats or bonnet have indeed is it not. this very fact which lends such importance to the study wc are recommending? but we also tind that the ideal man changes from age to age with a rapidity and a! niptness in no way inferior to the changes in ladies' costumes. iow in men's costumes we know that there is a certain traceable order of modification. The evolution of the hat has been trea ted of by philosopher?; but who has ever dared to predict or in any way ac count tor the fashion of the next year's bonnets? All we do know is that we shall be surprised. If very small Ixm nets are the fashion one year, we may safely swear that very big hats will take their place next: but to say whether these will be vast in height or length or breath defies augurr. ' It is just so with the ideal man. ho could have forseen that when the romantic type began to get tedious, Jane r.vre would have arisen with her inimitable, though often imitated, Kochester? No hero of romance, U tore or since, has had such a time ot it as this great picture of ideal ized brutality, or has tieen honored by one tithe of the number of imitators, His popularity supports .Thackeray's theory, that women always adore the husbands who beat them ; a doctrine, however, which, in view of the expec ted legislation touching onenses against the lierson, it were better perhaps not to promulgate too widely, lie is still alive and nourishing among us, this iron-jawed hero. Only the other day we met with a gentleman 'devour ing his meal in complete silence," and onlr taking notice f those about him to 'sternlv motion away the niustard-iot' the mustard, we supjtose, not being to lus liking, there is no mistaking real greatness. It will out. Whether he be duelling untamed bloodhounds by a glance, or only fuelling offending mustard-pots, the true hero stands con fessed, in revenge lor the irou-jawed stvle of hero, however, we have the ut terly blase and effeminate hero, who seems to be rather a favorite just at present ; and heaven only knows what new types onr lady novelists may have in store lor us. it must lie admitted that these violent clKinircs of fashion in in the case of ideal man are a little dif ficult to account for. It does not seem clear to the eve of reason whv all the lady novelists of one generation should nave a fancy for uniting themselves with the high-flown, the accomplished. the, in fact, elegant nobleman who ha all those iiolished virtues which we Know are never found in perfection but under a coronet, and why all the ladies' of the next generation should be seized with an tiiuurountable nation for the man with the iron jaw and iron muscles, who seems ready to knock down the heroine ct a moment's notice, and, In deed, commits toward her everv sort of brutality short of iiersonal violence The reason of this, we sav. is not plain to the philosopher, but the fact itself cannot be too strongly impressed on the minus 01 me ingenuous youth of the pe riod. It should provoke them to a much more careful and serious study of wo men's ideals than they give at present. And the duty is more imperative now adays because we have no writer of fiction, male or female, who forms the ideas of all the young ladies of the pe riod. In former times in the good old Byronic days, for instance, the days of tue lumKt tif veautg the ideal man was not difficult to arrive at. He required almost no making-up. A loose collar, long hair, a bend of the shoulders, and the thing wag done. But now it is a more dillicult matter. The young as pirant nas a good many ideals to choose from, and he can scarcely hope without careiui study to hit upon the right one. Saturdry lleritM. Father aad Souu There are two regular patrons of the police station in Springfield, Mass., fa- tner and son, or whom the L nion thus speaks: "When the old gentleman gets into limbo the son appears and proceeds to read him a long lecture on the sin of drinking and its attendant evils, usually winding up with, "It's good enough for you. I have done all that a son could do to make you iive properly, and yon have no one to blame but yourself." Money is raised to pay the Itl man's fine, and then the son takes his turn at getting drunk and smashing things. Straight way the father appears at the station house, and, with a benign expression on his countenance, plaintively in quires: 'Is this the example which I have set you, and am I to be thus re paid for all my watchful care and ten derness V The family pay the son's fine, and then it is the old' man's turn. The funny part of the affair is that fa ther and son have been lecturing each other in this way for about nine years, and neither of them seems to have the slightest idea of the extreme ludicrous ness which theircon tinned exhortations liave attained." AvucranmAk Choice Varieties of Cabbage. The culture of the cabbage as a field crop is now a leading Interest in sections of country easy of access to manufactur ing towns, large cities, atitl all through the mining districts. Where there is a demand for cabbage in quantity it is one of the most profitable crops that can be grown. A brief description of a few of the leading kinds for early and late planting may be of some avail to those who have not had much experi ence "with this particular crop. The market gardeners of New-Jersey still place the Jersey Wakefield at the head of the list for early planting, it U so far unequaled for uniformity in heading, size, and quality. When properly grown it will yield a third more profit on a given space than the Oxheart or any other variety ripening at the same time. Second on the list of good kinds for an intermediate crop may be placed Early Flat Dutch, sometimes called Philadel phia Flat Hutch. This variety pro duces a large flat head on a short stalk, with a leaf of tine texture and promi nent fleshy veins. Forming a link be tween the early and late it will head more evenly under the same culture than the Karly Winningstadt, and in quality will be found far sujierior for table use. Although Flotter's Bruns wick will make larger heads, it is coarser aud not as uniform in heading. For late planting of the main crop there is no variety that I have tested that will equal in size, firmness, aud that a ill head as uniformly as the pure Premium Flat Dnteh. This variety takes the same position among cabba ges that the Bartlett does In pears, the Baldwin in apples, Concord in grapes, and Wilson among strawberries. When grown on rich ground it will give large, flat and exceedingly solid heads, which will retain their firm texture when cut from the stalk and trimmed of iu out side leaves. This makes it a favorite with hucksters. The best way to keep the seed pure is for each grower to se lect from his crop the best formed aud perfect specimen heads to raise seed from. Among the new kinds mejre re cently introduced and recommended for general culture may be named the Mar blehcad. For four succussive years I have carefullv experimented with this kind, planting from 1,000 to 4,000 plants each year on ground regularly pre pared for Fall cabbages. From this ex perience I can now state that the Mar blehead has with me proved almost worthless, inferior by far to any of our old late sorts. Early last July I planted 3,000 Marbleheads alongside of an equal number of Flat Dutch. Both lots had the same treatment all through, the ground wag good and properly cared for. j At the close of the season when it came time to pull and bury, nearly all the Flat Dutch were headed, while four-fifths of the others were fit only for cow cabbages, and had to be used for that purose, big, coarse, loose bundles of leaves that would need two more months to finish growing. The seed of the Marblehead oust me $10 a pound, while the Flat Dutch cort only a third as much. A neighbor who grew cabbages for market tells me that his experience with the Marblchead is about the same as mine. Of the curled sorts, the Drumhead Savoy is one of the best both for home use and market pur joses. To insure a full crop the ground should be rich, and the plants set but a week or two earlier tnan the smooth leaved kinds. For my crop of vthis family I usually get 5 to 10 a thousand more than for the Flat Dutch, but of course the demand is limited, and it would be an easy matter to overstock the market. Large Early Schweiufurt is one of the new Oennau varieties and is by far the largest early sort that I have grown. The heads when matured and of full size will weigh from 20 to 30 jKiunds apiece. It is not popular among dealers, for no matter how solid the head may be wiien cut for market, if left exposed on the huckster's or grocer's stands for two or three days, the heads wilt so badly as to become unsalable. On this account dealers buy sparingly of this kind. V. T. ., Essex Co., 3 . J. How Loso to Mile Cows.-Some cows settle this question for their own ers, and snch, unless they are tine, large animals, and calf raising is the chief use of the cow, should be fatted and killed at four or five years old or sold. As a general rule, it is a poor cow that does not need to be dried off before calving. As to how little milk pays for the trouble of milking, that depends upon the number of cows, and the amount required for family use or for sale. If the milk is worth four or five cents a quart, it will pay to milk every cow that will average two quarts a day ; if less than that quantity is ob tained, 1 would advise to sell on the cow. The practice of half feeding dry cows is a iMMir system. All cows that are worth keeping should be well kept; and any animal with young should be. as well fed as when giving milk, though the food need not be so rich or oleaginous, as when the miik is set for cream or used for butter-making. The rapid taking on or nesn at this period is an Indication of sound health. If you exjiect to have a tine calf, stop milking at all events six weeks before the cow' will come in again. Some cows will give milk the year round if you allow them, and it is hard to dry them before they make bag anew, but this should always be done. It will be found profitable to feed cows well. and curry them twice a week thor oughly. Keeping Appi.es.' There are three requisites for keeping apples well- low temperature, about freezing, a uni form, or changeless temperature, and the exclusion of air currents. Apples win not freeze unless a lew degrees be low the freezing point, aud if thev could lie kept constantly about 32 de grees t an. tiiey would not decay in a year. As we cannot attain this in practice we must come as near to it as we can. Place the fruit in a cool out house as soon as gathered, and keen it there till freezing weather sets in. Keep it as cold in the cellar as practi cable by open windows, and use a thermometer to regulate a uniform temperature. Alternations of heat and cold soon rot apples. This is the reason that apples keep longer in barrels than on open shelves; and barrels would be best, if we could only tell when the de cay begius, for as soon as this com mences the whole barrel is soon spoiled. Wrapping each specimen in paper op erates in the same manner as barrels excludes warm and cold currents, and preserves a unnorm temperature, r e have tried it on counted specimens of wrapped aud exposed specimens, and found the wrapped ones to keep the longer. Country (ieMleman. Grekx FoDMtR. In Europe, expert ments with green corn stalks and rye buried close in pits, have shown that the corn stalks after being buried four months kept perfectly well and in good condition, but the rye did not keep as wen. i ne corn stalks kept so well be cause they contained the largest pro- liruuii vi a ater, or oo per cenu i lls tilled in December with a layer of ice in the top, before covering, kept down to the low temperature till the last.

Some interesting observations under thia bead are communicated from an Austrian line of railway, the Kaiser Ferdinand northern line. A portion of this line, about eight Eng lish miles in length, is very open, and often blocked with snow in winter. The obstacle ia generally surmounted by strewing sand over the rails in front of the driving wheels. This portion of the line in question has a double line of rails, partly of Bessemer steel rails and partly or light Martin steel rails. Now, the skidding of the wheels, fre quently cansed heating of the tires and rails, which are suddenly cooled again by the low temperaftire of the air on the falling snow. This, in itself, must be injurious to the molecular construc tion - of the metal, but, beside the in creased friction canses a certain amount of abrasion of the npper surf ace of the rails at the spots where the stoppages - have occared. Examina tions proved that these abraded por tions varied in length from two to nine English inches, from one-twelfth to one-fourth inch in depth, and extended over the whole breadth of the rail. A train in passing over the depressions so caused necessarily experiences a certain shock, and it is reasonable to suppose that the concussion thereby communicated to the rail will be most felt when the ground beneath is frozen hard, so that natural elasticity of the rails has no room to play. In three in instances rails so worn snapped asun der suddenly at the abraded portion, although no flaw or defect in the metal could be detected. This led to the re moval of all abraded rails from this section of the line, amounting to twenty-eight lengths of Martin steel rails, and ten lengths of Bessemer rails, No similar case of fracture is known to have occurred in the iron or puddled steel rails previously in use, although the amount of abrasion they under went must have been at least as great. The inference is that the improved rails of Bessemer and other steels, their su perior strength notwithstanding, are less capable of withstanding concus sion than the older (iron) rails, and consequently ' whenever they are used increased vigilance is requisite to pre vent accidents in the wintertime. Zeitschrifl. ' ' Vertical Generator. Some addition al tests have been made with the new French vertical boiler or generator, with rapid circulation adapted to puddling and reheating as well as re fining furnaces and converting some twenty-eight kilogrammes of water in to steam per hour for each square me ter of heating surface, or 8,800 per ki logramme of coaL ' In this arrangement, the circular body is placed vertically over the furnace, and contains within it a second casing nearly as large as itself ; this inner body is open below, and above com municates with the chimney. Within the latter are three triangular spiral tubes, which are arranged concentric ally with each other, occupying the whole of the interior space. The con nection of the spirals with the water between the inner and outer casings is made by a fusible metal joint. At the upper part cf the inner lining is a place, which forces the flames to act upon the whole series of spiral tubes before escaping by the chimney, and, around the chimney itself, above the outer case of the boiler, is a reser voir of feed water, which absorbs the heat that would otherwise be lost. The advantages which are claimed for the arrangement here described, and which it is said to completely ful fil, are, that the water being divided and placed in the heart of the tire, there is a rapid and continuous up ward current in the tubes which pre vents the collection of deposits, and causes the most rapid vaporization, while the incessant movement neces sarily prevents accidents and adds to the durability of the apparatus. H7iere to Loot for Arsenic in Cases of Fotmtno. Observations oi great tox ical importance have lately been made by SoolOBuboff (Soe. C'A. August 1875) with reference to tne aistrioution oi arsenic in the tissues of animals in cases of noisonme-. Contrary to gene ral belief, he finds the arsenic specially condensed in the nervous tissues. The experiments were made with dogs, rab bits, and frogs. Dogs bear large doses of arsenic quite readily .taking without difficulty fifteen to eighteen times the quantity which, weight for weight, would be fatal to man. A bulldog took for thirtv-four days gradually increas ing quantities of sodium arsenite in his food, rising from 0-075 grain to2"2 grains a day. The results of the pois oning were acute and quite marked. Calling the amount of arsenic found in 0 22 lb. of muscle 1, that in the same weieht of liver was 108 : brain, aVo ; spinal cord, 37 3. A dog of 24 and one tilth ins. weight was Killed oy subcut aneous injection of sodium arsenite, in 17 hours. The arsenic from the brain gave a decided reaction, that from the spinal cord was less, while in the liver and muscles only Daces could oe de tected. Prince Kuperf s Drops. By cooling glass wore rapidly than could occur in ordinary atmospheric temperatures, that is, by a process the reverse of an nealing. Prince Kupert's - drops are made. The ordinary way to make these set entitic cariosities is to drop a small quantity, usually less than baif an ounce, of perfectly fluid class into wa ter. In falling, the glass will assume the form of a tear, with an enlongated end extending into a thread. 11 a pert drops are clear, bright, and hard, -and may be struck with much violence upon the large end without fracture, and it the thin, but tough and very elastic thread of the other ex tremity be broken off, the whole drop will explode into numberless frag ments, much finer than , the sand of which the glass was originally com posed. I'opular lcient Monthly. Wood for Docks. A fact has oc curred at Belfast, Victoria, which is well worth noting. In 18t8 an auger was dropped in the bay there by one of the workmen employed on the jetty. Last Christmas, the tool was picked up on the beach near the mouth of the Moyne. The iron anger was encrusted with rust, sand, etc., and the iron part ly destroyed, but the wooden handle (blackwood) was perfectly sonnd. In bnilding jetties this tact would prove that iron bolts are not as durable as treenails of blackwood. Sonnd made Visible. A sound writer. called an opeidescope is a new inven tion.

It is very common for vounir men now- a-days to study how little they can make suffice in the way of the labor they per form for their employers, rather than bow much they can possibly do to ren der themselves useful. We sav this is common now, and we suppose it always nas oeen common, nut we think it will be found on examination never to have been the course pursued by men who in afterlife became distinguished for their success. Such men worked for their employers as afterwards, when they got into Business on tneir own account, they worked for themselves. Itrsrrs Aboct Meat. Pepper Is a pre ventive of decay, in a degree; it is well, therefore, to pepper hang joints.- - , . Powdered charcoal is still more re markable in its effect. It will not only keep the meat over which it is sprinkled good, but will remove the taint from already decayed flesh. A piece of charcoal boiled in the water with "high" meat or fowls, will render it or them quite sweet. A piece of char coal, or powdered charcoal, should be kept in every larder. Ham, after being smoked, may be kept for any length of time packed in powdered charcoal. Meat should be wiped with a dry clean cloth as soon as it comes from the butcher's; fly-blows, If found in it, cut out, and in loins the long pipe that runs by the bone should be taken out, as it soon taints; the kernels, also, should be removed from beef. Never receive bruised joints. Meat will keep good for a long time in cold weather, and, If frozen through, may be kept for months. Frozen meat must be thawed before it is cooked by plunging it into cold water, or placing it before the fire before setting it down to roast. It will never be dressed through if this precaution is not taken, not even when twice cooked. The Best Wat to Bon, Eoos. The objection to the common way of boiling eggs is this: The white, under three minutes' rapid cooking. Becomes tougn and indigestible, while the volk is left soft. When properly cooked, eggs are done evenly through like any food. This result may be attained by putting the eggs Into a dish with a cover, as a tin pail, and then pouring upon them boiling water, two quarts or more to a dozen eggs, and cover and set them away from the stove for 15 minutes. The heat of the water cooks the eggs slowly and evenly and sufficiently and to a jelly-like consistency, leaving the center or yolk harder than the white, and the egg tastes as much richer and nicer as a fresh egg is nicer than a stale egg; and no person will want to eat tnem boiled alter having tried this method. , . , - , A Cat EXT FOR AST KfXD OF WOOD. Put any quantity of fine sawdust of the same wood your work is made with into an earthen pan, pour boiling water on it, stir well, and let it remain a week or ten days, occasionally stirring it; then boil it for some time, aud it will be of the consistency of pul p or paste ; put it into a coarse cloth, and squeeze the moisture from It. Keep for use, and when wanted mix a sufficient quantity of thin glue to make it into a paste; rub it well into the cracks, or fill up the holes in your work with ft. - wnen quite hard and dry, clean your work oil, and )t carefully done, you- will scarce discern the imperfection. To Cook Copfish. Cut up your fish. put it on the fire in cold water and let it heat very gradually, but it must not get too hot ; in about an hour scrape the fish very clean and get off all the skin, then put it in clean, cold water; peel your potatoes and put them on with the fish and plenty or water in season for them to get boiling in time to be done for dinner; the potatoes are much better for boiling with the fish. I have seen fish soaked until it was quite taste less. It should be served w ith drawn butter or pork cut line and fried a light brown, boiled eggs, onions, beets aud squash, or stewed pumpkin. To make chocolate Busse,take one pint of milk, three-fourths of a pound of su gar and one-half of a box of gelatine ; PHt these together in a dish, which place in a kettle of boiling water; after the gelatine is dissolved beat tour eggs and stir into It, cook until the mixture looks clear, then cool it- Beat one pint or cream previously flavored with vanilla to a sun troth, add the eggs and beat again thoroughly, line a dish with cake, pour in the mixture and put cake over the top.- ; .

ToCleax Metallic Articles. -Gilt metallic articles may be cleaned by rubbing them very gently with a soft sponge or brush dipped in a solution of half an ounce of potash, or one ounce of soda, or, still better, of half an ounce of borax, in sixteen ounces of water, and drying with a soft linen rag. Their lustre may be improved in special cases by warming them slightly and then rubbing them very geutly with a soft sponge or brush.

"Thomas Freeman" contributes this to the Dan bury JVetro. "We're going to be married now in 'bout a week, stranger," said a countryman, with a slouched . bat on one side of his head, as he entered a jeweler's store on Market St. last week, leading by the hand a bashful-looking glrL with a red face and white teeth, "and I want a set of jewelry to match that 'ere ring on her finger." "Something pretty nice, I presume?" said the jeweler, examining the ring. "Best you've got, I reckon," was the reply. Some twenty different sets were shown them varying in price from $30 to $90 and Anally they decided to take one. the price of which was $60. "Do her up in a rag," said the coun tryman, pressing himself up closely aeainst the girl. The shopman artistically wrapped up the jewelry and handed it to the be trothed. "There's your spondulix." said the purchaser, as be ran his nanus deep down into his pockets and threw two big bandfuls of hard money on the show-case. As the merchant had not been asked the price of his goods, he looked a little surprised, especially when the country man added : "It's all right, stranger, for she and I counted it over more'n twenty times 'fore we left home." "How much is there here?" inquired the jeweler, having counted 25 cents all in coppers. "Xinety-nine cents, I reckon ; not a cent short." "Xinety-nine cents! Why, that set of jewelry is $00; we don't sell brass here," exclaimed the jeweler, his face becoming scarlet, and, taking the set from the ' girl, he replaced it in the show-case. ' "P-h-e-w," whistled the countryman, looking with astonishment, first at the man and then into the street. "Why, a boy out here told me and my gal that we could get anything in this 'er store for 99 cents," and they went out to look for the boy. . Schxeider's Tomatoes. Schneider is very fond of tomatoes.

The other evening a Brooklyn gentleman was ex plaining tbe panorama or the heavens to his little son, and in the course of the lesson directed his attention to the two planets lately in conjunction.

"Ah," rejoined Sammy, without taking his eyes off the planet, "but he wouldn't do so if Saturn was Veuus, would he pa?" The spelling school furore has been of great help to at least one man. lie has been courting a girl for three years East, and hadn't the courage to speak is mind.

A irrrm seven-year-old boy up town was recently told by his mother that she would start him to school this session. 'Looking up in gw.t surprise, and shaking bis head ominously, e re plied, "1 can't goto school; 1 don't spell well enough.' A pedagogue was trying to explain the meaning of the cuticle to his class, out they were dull or comprehension. "Whv. bovs. what is this all over mv face and hands?"

A dry and neatly-kept cellar is a pretty good guarantee of health to the family whose members are breathing the air from ft day and night, every body believes in having pure air to breathe; but we are sorry to. tell the truth that thousands are breathing im pure air on account of foul cellars. What are the essentials of a good cellar? It must be dry ; it must have stone walls outside and division walls of either stone or brick: the floor of cement upon a foundation of cobble stones previously imbedded in the earth by means of a maul handled by two men; plastered ceilings and walls; complete ventila tion by means or large windows, it these points are secured, the cellar be comes one of the most important rooms in the house. rhtvnolrtil Jimrnnl, Theatrical performances ' for the benefit of churches are common in San Francisco. ...

See Dr. Schenck's Almanac, containing the certificates of many persons of the high est respectability, who have been re stored to health, after being pronounced incurable by physicians of acknow- ledged ability. Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup alone has cured many, as these evidences will show; but the cure is often promoted by the employment of two other remedies which lr. bchenck provides for the purpose. These addi tional remedies are Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic and Mandrake Pills. By the timely use of these medicines, according to directions. Dr. schenck ce runes tba most any case of Consumption may be cured. Dr. Schenck is professionally at his pi incipal office.
