    HOPFS VICTORY.
Dark clooda bad epi ead across the sky
A 1 named o'er the old-loved wsja,
And through the trees the breezea sighed,
While sunbeams hid their golden raja.
-Oh. all ia dark and aad around.
And in cy heart no light ia found ;
Xo more will hrightneaa o'er me spread ;
For joy ia gone, and hope U dead!" -
E'en aa I spake the aon abone forth
One heavenly amile from ont the aky.
That abed a balm within my breast.
And from my heart aad thonghta did fly.
"Oh in Use gloom that gathers round.
Let trust within the heart be found ;
Then, when the sunbeams gild the lea.
Sweet Hope will gain a victory !"

Mrs. Mathews, tells some extraordi
nary anecdote of her husband's powers
of personation off the stage, which
were so marvelous that he could, with
out change of dress, assume a character
so completely as to deceive his most in
timate friends. The personage thus as
sumed went by the name of Mr. Fenny
man ; once he was expelled from behind
the sceues of the Liverpool Theatre,
where he was acting at the time, as an
intrusive stranger. More than once he
played oft" the same trick in the green
room of Drury Lane amidst his brother
actors, without his Indentity being sus-
pee'ed. Indeed the eccentricities of
this supjtositious gentleman became so
celebrated that one night the Duchess
of Devonshire cime from her box into
the green room to have a peep at him.
lie sat down besides her entered into
conversation, complimented her upon
her beauty, while she was all the time
convulsed with laughter. 'o one
knew who he was or whence he came,
as the habitues of the theatre had the
entrej behind the scenery at that time,
a stranger more or less was not remark
able. As no gentleman, unless he was
performing in the play, was permitted
to enter the green room except in even
ing dress, the costume afforded no guide
to his detection.
"Xo one," to continue in the writer's
words' ''could tell how the gentleman
got admittance, and therefore there was
uo mode of excluding him. Every
night he attracted inconvenient num
bers to the green room; and on the
night when my husband performed, it
was a matter of much regret to the per
formers that 'Mathews always came to
the theatre too early or too late to see a
subject whom he of all others ought to
see.' It was really surpi lsing that no
suspicion arose of the truth. How long
this imposture lasted I forget, but it
was at length revealed by the impostor
himself. One night, in the midst of a
greater excitement than was usually
created by him, he suddenly stood be
fore the assembled crowd as Mr. Math
ews. A set of village clowns or a group
of children gazing at a mountebank at
a fair, could not have expressed more
wonder, nay, something approrcbing .0
terror, when the imperceptible change
took place, than was manifested in the
features of all around."
When Go 1 win was writingCZoiiJeWe,
he wrote to Mathews the following let
ter
My itEAB sir: lam at this moment
engaged in writing a work of fiction,
part of the incidents in which consist
in escajtes in disguises. It has forcibly
struck me that if I could be indulged in
the pleasure of half an hour's conversa
tion with you upon the subject, it
would furnish me with some hints, tc.
A day was appointed to him for dine
at Mathew's house, and the great mim
ic gave him ocular demonstration of
the possibilities of disguise. By and
by, while Godwin was wrapt "in the
wonder ou't," there entered an eccen
trie gentleman, a neighbor.
"We were embarrassed," to continue
in Mrs. Mathew's words, "and Mr.
Godwin evidently vexed at the inter
ruption. However, there was no help
for it, the servant had admitted him,
and he was introduced in form to Mr,
Godwin. The moment Mr. Jenkins,
for such was his name, discovered the
distinguished person he had dropped in
upon, he was enthusiastically pleased
at the event, talked to Mr. Godwin
about all his works, inquired about the
forthcoming book iu fact, bored him
through and through. At last the au
thor turned to my husband for refuge,
and discovered that he had left the
room. lie, therefore, rose from his
seat and approached the window lead
ing to the lawn, Mr. Jenkins officiously
following, and insisting upon opening
it for him, and while he was urging a
provokingly obstinate lock, the olject
of his devoted attention waited behind
him for release. The casein nt at
length llew ojieii, and Mr. Godwin
passing the gentleman with a devoted
look of thanks, found to his astonish
ment that Mr. Jenkins had disappeared,
and that Mr. Mathews stood in his
place.
Parental rally.
That all sensible parents truly desire
the welfare of their offspring is prop
osition that will not be disputed. This
point being conceded, it cannot but be
a matter of surprise that so many pur
sue a course which results, if not in ut
ter ruin, in great and irreparable injury
to those sacred gifts committed to their
charge.
From close observations made in ref
erence to this matter, extending through
a period of more than twenty years, the
writer has noticed two extremes of ac
tion. In the one case, parents seem to
entertain the notion that for some inex
plicable reason, their children are more
highly gifted, or in other words, are
"more clever" than the other children
of their acquaintance. Such parents
seek every opportunity to display their
children's superior intellect and acquire
ments, and habitually boast of their
transcendent abilities in their presence.
The result is, the children soon become
egotistical and disgust all who cannot
view them with parental eyes.
It not unfrequcntly happens that re
sults of the most serious character en
sue, which can be directly traced to the
foolish idea entertained by parents that
their children are possessed of unusual
wisdom. One fact out of many of a
similar nature that have occurred with
in the scope of our observation will il
lustrate this point.
We were once visiting in a neighbor
hood where dwelt a man of ordinary
abilities and more than usual business
tact. His youngest eon was the name
sake of an eminent statesman, a man
whom the people delighted to honour.
The fond parents, from the first dawn
ing of the child's intellect, conceived
the idea that he was possessed of supe
rior intellectual powers, and predicted
for him a career that would eclipse the
renown of the great man whose name
he bore. They were never weary of
praising him for his unusual "clever
ness," and seemed to forget that others
could not discern the brilliant elements
of bis character.
Time passed on until the "future
statesman" tame to the mature age of
five years. Ilia father was a farmer,
and procured an agricultural machine,
which was propelled by steam power,
The boy was allowed to tamper with it,
and when his parents were warned of
the danger, they Insisted be had more
sense than half the men in the neigh
borhood, and there was nothing to fear,
What was the result? In an unguard
ed moment, the child was left in sole
charge of the machine; his right hand
became entangled in the cogs, and had
to be amputated ; and he Is consequent
ly a cripple for life.
Had the poor boy's parents entertain
ed the sensible opinion that, like other
children of his age, he required to be
kept aloof from danger, this sad calam
ity would not have happened.
We have painted a picture drawn
from actual fact, of the dire results of
parental folly in thinking their chil
dren uncommonly "clever." We now
beg the reader's indulgence while we
sketch another, where an equally inju
dicious course was pursued.
In another neighborhood in which
the writer was visiting, lived a man to
whom the kind Father had given a
daughter. lie was a person of ordinary
abilities and fair acquirements. His
fellow parishoners elevated him to offi
ces of trnt, which he filled with credit
and ability. Believing his daughter to
be more than ordinarily endowed with
abilities, he was anxious to have her
become qualified for the responsible and
honorable profession of a school teacher.
The truth was, nature had not designed
her for a scholar. While this was true,
had a less harsh and more reasonable
and judicious course been pnrsued, the
result might have been less terrible
than it was, although his hopes might
not have been fully realized.
Anxious to comply with her parent's
wishes, but yet conscious that she had
no natural capacity for the vocation
chosen, she applied herself with assi
duity, and overtaxed her feeble powers
in order to qualify herself for the station
selected for her- Often she would re
turn from school, disheartened and dis
couraged from the fact that, strive as
hard and diligently as she might, she
fell behind the more highly gifted. In
stead of meeting with encouragement
and assistance, she was -met with re
bukes and the severest reprimands.
"You are nothing but a blockhead, and
never will know anything." This is but
a specimeni of the tirades of harsh and
unfeeling language (we can call it by
no softer name) that fell upon her ears.
Xow mark the consequence.
Instead of giving up, she overtaxed
her powers; and the girl who might
have been a respectable member of so
ciety, has for years, in consequence of
the derangement of her nervous system.
produced by overtaxing a mind not
naturally over-brilliant, been the victim
of terrible fits and spasms is a perfect
mental imbecile.
We have been induced to write these
statements of facts, hoping that other
parents may use them as lessons, and
shun such injudicious courses in the
education of the precious lambs com
mitted to their care.

Among home amusements the best is
the good old habit of conversation, the
talking over the events of the day, in
bright and quick play of wit and fancy,
the story which brings the laugh, and
the speaking the good and kind and
true things which all have in their
hearts. It is not so much by dwell
ing upon what members of the
family have iu common, as bringing
each to the other something interesting
and amusing, that home life is to be
made cheerful and joyous. Each one
must do his part to make the conversa
tion genial and happy. We are too
ready to converse with newspapers and
books, to seek some companion at the
store, hotel or club-room, and to forget
that home is anything more than a
place to sleep and to eat in. The reviv
al of conversation, the entertainment of
one another,and a room full of people who
will entertain themselves, is one secret
of a happy home. Wherever it is want
ing, disease has struck into the root of
the tree; there is a want which is felt
with increasing force as time goes on.
Conversation, in many cases, is just
what prevents many people from re
lapsing into utter selfishness at their
firesides. This conversation should
not simply occupy husband and wife
and other older members of the family,
but extend itself to the children. Par
ents should be cateful to talk with
them, to enter in to I heir life, to share
their trifles, to assist in their studies, to
meet them in the thoughts and feelings
of their childhood. It is a great step in
education, when arouud the evening
lamp, are gathered the different mem
bers of a family, sharing their occupa
tion with one another the older assist
ing the younger, each one contributing
to the entertainment of the other, and
all feeling that the evening had passed
only too rapidly away. This is the
truest and best amusement. It is the
healthy education of great and uoble
characters. There is the freedom, the
breadth, the joyousness of natural life.
The time spent thus by parents, in the
higher entertainment of their children,
bears a harvest of eternal blessings, and
these long evenings furnish just the
time.

There is much nourisment In fish
little less than in meat, weight for
weight, and in effect It may be more
nourishing, considering how, from its
fibre, fish is more easily digested. More
over, there is in fish a substance which
does not exist in the flesh of land ani
mals, namely, iodine, a substance which
may have a beneficial effect on the
health, and tend to prevent the produc
tion of scrofulous or tubercle disease,
the latter in the form of pulmonary con
sumption, one of the most cruel and
fatal with which civilized society is af
flicted. Comparative trials have proved
that in most fish the proportion of solid
matter that is, the matter that remains
after perfect digestion of the expulsion
of the aqueous part is little inferior to
that of the several kinds of meat, game
or poultry. If we give attention to
classes of people, classes as to the qual
ity of food they principally subsist on,
we find that the ichthyophagous class are
especially strong, healthy and prolific.
In uo class except that of fishermen do
we see larger families, handsomer
women, more robust and active men,
or a greater exemption from the mala

Panrr You Farm Implements.
Millions of dollars are lost annually In
the United States, by neglect to paint
farm wagons, plows, harrows. . &c.
These things, if well painted and kept
nnder cover when not in use, will last
three times as long as they will when
not repaluted after two or three years
use. Any farmer can paint these
things. All that is needed is Venetian
red and linseed oil, half raw and half
boiled, then wash the implement to be
painted thoroughly, and proceed to ap
ply the paint. Even pleasure carriages
can be nicely painted at about one
tenth the cost when painted by a car
riage maker. A farmer says : "After
paying twenty dollars every other year
to the carriage makers for painting and
varnishing my buggy, and being with
out the use of it for fifteen days while
at the shop, I concluded to inquire into
the matter a little, believing all that a
farmer can do towards keeping his tools
and farm machinery in order should be
done at home. We too often employ
the mechanic to mend our harness,
when we can do it quite as well, though
at all times not quite so smoothly. The
next time my buggy needed painting, I
called at the carriage shop and enquired
what they would paint it for. They
would clean and put on one coat of
paint and varnish It for til teen dollars,
and for all necessary repairs in wood,
iron or leather, they would charge at
the rate of thirty cents an hour and add
the value of materials usea ; lor two
coats of paint, and one of varnish,
twenty dollars, and two weeks' time to
do the work in. I concluded to paint
and varuish it myself, and tho result
is that it cost me iu paint and varnish
only $1.50, and the work was done as
well, so far as I could see, as they
would have done it. I gave it two coats
of black carriage paint and one coat of
varnish."
Useti'L Hints. A saddle put on
l"Dte!y with slack girth is very irrita
ting to a horse, and soon produce a
sore back.
A harness kept soft and pliable with
neatsfoot oil will last almost a life
time. It is stronger because slightly
elastic, and will seldom wear oil' the
nair.
A horse left uncovered when not iu
exercise will soon grow a heavy coat of
coarse hair. This becomes a hindrance
to rapid motion, and should be pre
vented by judicious blanketi ng.
A horse's shoe will hold much longer
if the clinches are not weakened by the
tile in finishing. Insist that the file
does not touch the end of the nail
where turned down.
Some horses have a habit of stepping
on one side of their feet, perhaps to
avoid pressure of a hidden corn. That
part of the shoe exposed to severe wear
should be protected with steei.
All carriage shafts of right construc
tion should allow the body of the ani
mal perfect freedom, and only touch
at the well-padded saddle and full col
lar. An over-reaching horse, one whose
hind feet is frequently hitting the for
ward shoes, should wear heavy shoes
forward and light ones behind. The
theory is that the heavier hoof will be
thrown a little further ahead than the
lighter one.
Rapid Milking. The question has
been asked how long it takes to draw a
quart of milk from a cow, and if it can
be done at the rate of a quart a minute
I was talking with my nearest neighbor
about it recently. He had never timed
himself at the work, but thought
quart a minute was a little more than
he could do. - He would try it with hi
three year old heifer in just twelve
hours lrom the time he milked her iu
the morning. I was to milk my four
year old the same length of time after
morning milking; the pails to be
weighed when empty, and allow two
podiids of milk to the quart; ouetohold
the watch while the other did the milk
ing of his own cow. The result of it
was that his heifer, two months from
the time of dropping her fair, gave
twenty two pounds; time of milking
eight and one-fourth minutes. My four
year old, five weeks from calving, gave
twenty-seven pounds, ten ounces; time,
ten and one-half minutes. Our respec
tive ages -re sixty-two and sixty-six
years. At the morning milking my cow
gave twenty-five pounds, fourteen
ounces; for the day, fifty-three and
one-half pounds. ComtpoudeiiL.
To Prevent Horses from Filling.
The London Veterinary Journal advo
cates a simple and inexpensive appli
ance to prevent horses from falling in
winter. It consists simply of onw or
more steel studs, set into the horse's
shoe. One In front is sullicient, but
for heavy work two more- at the sides
are recommended. The stud is a square
bit of steel nearly an inch long pointed
at one end and tapering slightly from
about the middle of the other that en
ters the shoe. Xo tiling or finishing is
necessary, and any blacksmith can
make a large number in a very short
time out ot an old rasp or lilu. The
stud must fit tightly, care being taken
that It does not "wobble," and that it
does not pass quite through the shoe
The hole is made witii an ordinary
square punch. This simple system has
proved very efficient after an extensive
trial, and saves horses great pain, suf
fering and often fatal injury.
Beef Trodi-chon. Some farmers
who have the capital to u-e and ample
barns, will find it profitable to go into
the winter fattening of beeves, even il
compelled to purchase largely of fool
for the purpose. Indeed, this is one of
the best methods also, to Improve the
fertility of the farm. For adult ani
mals; in taking on flesh remove but a
small proportion of the substance of
the food In digestion, save the tats; the
rest goes to the manure. LuglNu fur
mers owe tneir fertile soils and con
siderable profits largely to the stall
feeding of beeves. Stall fed beeves
always brings the highest price in our
Eastern markets. Me know several
farmers who have made comfortable
fortunes by this branch of farming
which comes in so handily during the
offseason.
The annual report of the Commis
sioner of Agriculture shows that there
were distributed during the past year,
1,600,000 packages of vegetable and field
seeds and textiles, including nearly
800.000 of vegetable, 372,000 ot flower,
66,000 of wheat, 61,000 of tobacco, and
863 of cotton. These seeds, the report
says, were collected fiom all parts of
the world, selected because oi their pe
culiar excellence, and put into the
hands of thousands of individuals, who
make them the germs from which is to
grow a quantity of product that is to
characterize tue future operations ot
the farmer and gardener.
What to do with the Corn Stvbble.
Fieldr, that have been cleared iu time
should be plowed in readiness for early
sowing of oats in spring. If roots are
to follow the corn, the stubble may be
ploughed at once and sown with rve.
Three or four bushels should be sown
to the acre. This rye will furnish a
heavy crop of green fodder uext May,
or an excellent early pasture in the
spring, or may be ploughed under as
green manuring. In either ca-e the
expense of the seed, which is the only
outlay, will be many times repaid iu
the increase of the following crop.
Evert farmer should suit his rrons
to surrounding circumstances. I'laut
such crops as will give the most clear
money according to investment, with
the fertility of the soil kept up. If you
do not, bny the cheapest manure that
will give von maximum crops.
Ir tou allow your animals to shiver-
your fortune will be shivered in conse
queuce; that Is, the farmer who leave
his cattle to the winds will find his
profits also given to the winds.

Improvement in Telegraphy. An En
glish engineer dm invented a new tel
egraph joint, which, it ia claimed, pre
sents a simple, cheap and efficient
means of dealing with one of the prac
tical difficulties of subterranean tele
graphy one, in fact, that seemed al
nioit insnnerable.
This m-w joint is formed by removing
the coating from the two ends to be
united and. joining: the cleaned wires
by what ia techinally known as the
"bell hanger's twist," no solder being
necessary. The twist is then warmed
slightly and covered with a rough coat
ing of insulating compound, somewhat
thicker than the original diameter of
the wire. The joint, while warm, is
i:acel in the lower Halt ot a email
ooden block about three inches long
ind one inch wide, fitted internally
with a groove for the wire, widening in
the middle into a niche about one and
one-half inches length for the reception
of the compound covered joint. - While
the compound is vet warm, the upper
half ot the mould in shape corres
ponding exactly with the lower one
is placed on the top, and by means of
a clamp, screwed down until the two
wooden surfaces are pressed hrmly to
gether. While in this position, they are per
manently fixed by half a dozen ordin
ary urass screws, and, the compound
bavinx hardened, the claniD is remov
ed and the joint complete. The cavity
in the mteiior ot the block in which
the copper euds meet, leing complete

torily tested the electrical qualities of

Elnttirify of loe. Professor Bianco
ni, of Bologna, Italy, Las recently
made a series of experiments with re
gard to the compressibility and elas
ticity of ice. Granite pebbles, placed
ou an ice surface, were pressed with
constant and measured pressure for
six, eixl'f, or ten hours, at a surround
ing tempature of I$4 to 37 degrees Fall.
The impression was deep but it was
surrounded by a raised brim, and this
airain by a Blight external cavity. M.
Bianconi considers the reutral cavity
to be the effect partly of strong com
pression, partly of fusion, produced by
the hent proper of the pebble. The
external cavity was probably due to in
itial calorific irradation of the pebble;
for, if the pebble had previously been
placed in ice, this cavity became very
small, or a'tnost ri7. The raised brim
is the swelling of the ice, produced by
the pressure, the ice being expelled iu
viitue of its plasticity. This appear
very clearly when, the pressure of the
pebble coming obliquely on a point of
the ice surface, a certain protuberance
ia seen at an opposite point. Among
other rxerimeuts an iron plate, with
a square hole m it, was strongly press
ed oh a plane surface of ice. After
eight hours the ice had risen an inch or
so through the hole, in the foim of an
unequal crest, and turned over on the
plate, while the ice at the outer edges
of the plate had similarily riseu and
turued over. Asain, a bar of iron
plane below and convex above was
prcs-ed for ten hours on a plane ice
surface. The ice expelled below rose
up on the sides, and became applied to
tiie sloping surfaces. The experiments
prove that ice lias a manifest compres
sibility or plasticity, though slow and
very limited.

Cutting Steel with Soft Iron. Jacob
Reese: or Pittsburg. Pa., had long en-
deavoied to construct a machine to cut
hardened cold steei. He accomplished
it at length by means of a saw of soft
wrought iron mereiy a circular disk
rotating at high velocity. Witti low
speed this would not cut at all : but
when running about 30,000 feet per
minute the disk cuts through steel ra
pidly, giving out an immense -cascade
ot sparks iu the operation. It was
found ou exaiuiuing the debne beneath
the di.-.k that l he particles of steel were
not simply . rub!ed off. They were
welded together in a pyramid like
sUtlagmite or the enow circles on the
fop ot Mouut W ashiugton. Professor
lied rick ascertained that real fusion
had taken place among the particles of
steel. The dir-k is very little heated.
bat the steel is actually melted and
drops down. Vet the bar on each side
of the cut is not heated enough to draw
the temper or oxidize the metal. Solid
bars of steel, ot two or three inches in
diameter, are ilin cut through in as
many minutes. The soft metal disk is
about forty-two inches iu diameter.
The naked hands may be passed

spaiks during the operation without
being burned, since the particles of

Coffee the Tiknxa Fashion. The
two gill measure, level full of ground
coffee (three ounces) ; the same of cold
coffee or water; one egg, shell, yolk
and white, mixed together in a bowl.
Kinse out your coffee boiler with boil
ing water, put this In, and pour over It
three pints of fiercely boiling water, or
two pints if you wish It strong. Close
the spout aud lid closely, and boil
fifteen or twenty minutes; pour In
about four small tablespoonfuls of cold
water to settle It.
Kinse out the coffee urn with boiling
water before pouring the coffee In.
"The boiled milk" for the coffee must
be fresh and new, not merely warmed,
or even brought to the boiling point,
but slowly simmered in a farina boiler,
till It attains a thick, creamy richness;
then it must be sent to the table in a
hot cream pitcher to keep it warm. The
"whipped cream" is made by pouring
a cup full of rich cream into a deep
bowl, holding the churn about a quarter
of an inch from the bottom, and churn
ing itwelL. As fast as the stiffened
froth rises to the top of the cream, skim
it off with a spoon, keep it cool, and
send it to the table iu a bowl. Put into
each cup the desired amount of sugar, a
tablespoon full or so of the boiled milk,
pour on the coffee and place on top a
large spoon full of the whipped cream.
Give a gentle stir to each cup before
sending them round. Do not grind the
coffee too fine. A heaping tablespoon-
ful of the ground is a liberal allowance
for each person, and weighs half an
ounce.
As makt housewives have trouble in
keeping their yeast sweet aud good,
they w ill be glad to learn how they can
at all times have good reliable yeast
that will keep for weeks, and which
makes good, light bread. Yeast made
after the following recipe will never
fail, if the directions are followed. Take
a small handful of hops and boil in a
quart of water for an hour, or until the
hops become sticky. Strain on the liquor
aud let it cool somewhat, add theu a
teaspoonful of sugar aud two even tea-
spoonfuls of dour and pour into a stone
jar or pitcher aud cover with a cloth.
Let this stand three or four days and it
will be ready for use. When bread Is
to be made, peel and boil four or five
medium sized potatoes, and when done
mash them aud add to the pulp enough
of the water In which the potatoes were
Dolled to reduce it to a baiter; add two
teaspoonfuls of flour, one of sugar and
a good h-Jf cup ot hop mixture, mix
and set at ordiuary yeast. It will take
six or eight hours to rise. Use as ordi
nary yeast. The hop liquor will make
good bread ; but it is best to add the
potatoes, as they keep the bread from
becoming too dry.
Fat Meat. A celebrated Freuch in
structor in the art of cookery says that
lat meat Is the most profitable, lie
adds : "Many buy inferior meat on ac
count of the waste of the fat that is al
ways louud In good meat. When the
fat is wasted, it is the fault of the cook.
who does not know how to use It. The
fat skimmed off the broth of boiled
meat, aud that coming from the trim
ming of raw or cola beef, is much
superior to lard to fry with. Lard dies
all over; beef fat never does, when
properly melted. To melt beef fat or
suet, cut It in small pieces, aud set on
rather a slow fire, iu an iron pan. As
soon as it begius to melt, skim the
melted part oft with a ladle, and turn it
into a stone jar, which you cover when
cold. Put it away in a cool, dry, and
dark place. A careful cook never needs
lard for frying purposes, but always
has more fat than is necessary out of
boiling or roasting pieces."
Jkksf.y Wonders. Take two pounds
of flour, six ounces of white sugar, a
little nutmeg, grouud ginger. and lemoc
peel ; beat tight eggs and knead them
well together; a taste of brandy Im
proves iu Roll this about the thickness
of your wrist, cut off a small slice and
roll it into au oval about three inches
long and three inches wide; cut three
slits iu it, but not through either end;
there will then be three bands. Pass
the left one through the aperture to the
right, aud throw it into a brass or bell
metal skillet of boiling lard, or beef or
mutton dripping. You may cook three
or four at a lime. In about two minutes
turn them with a fork, and you will
find them browned and risen ia two or
three minutes more. Remove them
from the pan to a dish, when they will
cool.
To Make Qcekx Fritters with Pre
serves. l'ui in a saucepan a piut of
water, four ounces of butler, au ounce
of sugar, with the rind of a lemon ; let
boil; take the lemon out; add ten
ounces of sifted flour, mix well, cook
five minutes, take from the tire, then
incorporate into it, and only one at a
time, ten eggs; when ready to serve,
with a tablespoon take some of the paste
and drop piece by piece, and the size of
a horse-chestnut, iu hot grease; let fry
about ten minutes (it must expand
about four times the original size); then
draiu ou a cloth, and insert into cch
one some currant jelly, beaten up, aud
put iu a coarse paper cornucopia; open
the small end, sprinkle powdered sugar
over it, and serve ou a folded napkin.
Roast Beef Boxes furnish a very
relisuing luncheon or supper, prepared
with itoached or fried eggs and mashed
potatoes, as accouipanuueuts. Divide
the bones, leaving good pickings of
meat on each ; score them iu squares,
pour a little melted butter on them, and
spriukle thein with pepper aud salt;
put them on a dish; set them in a
Dutch-oven for half or three-quarters
of an hour, according to the thickness
of the meat; keep turning them till
they are quite hot and brown ; or broil
them on the gridiron. Brown them,
but dou't burn thein. Serve with grill
sauce.
Pax-Cakes or Griddle Cakes. Take
as many tauiespooniuls of dour as there
are eggs to be used. Beat the eggs
(yolks and whites separately), theu stir
iu the flour till smooth ; add enough
sweet, rich milk to make the eggs aud
our luto a thin natter, and a little salt.
Grease the pan or griddle, when quite
not, witn Duller or sweet lard. Stir it
briskly to prevent its scorching. Drop
in Uie baiter quickly for small round
cakes. Turu the cakes as soon as nioclv
browned, taking great care not to scorch
them. When both sides are browned,
fold them over, putting sugar or honey
and butter between. Some liiiuk a little
uuuueg or cinnamon an improvement.
Apple Ccstard Tarts. Peel, core
and stem Spitzenburg or Greening
apples till they can be passed through a
sieve ; to one pound silled apples add a
quarter pouud of butter rubbed with
one pouud ol powdered sugar, the grated
riuu oi a lemon, and one grated nut
meg; beat separately the yolks and
whites of eggs; stir iu with sugar, etc.,
one quart oi sweet cream, and add to
the whole the beaten egs; beat well
together and pour Into pie plates
bordered or lined with puff paste; bake
in a moderate oven until the custard
has "set."
Bread Omelette. Put in a stewpan
cup of cream, the same of bread
crumbs, a little salt, a dust of pepper, a
little nutmeg, set over the nre, and
when the bread has soaked up all the
cream, remove from the stove, cool, then
beat a dozen eggs, thoroughly mix with
the cream aud crumbs, aud fry. Serve
as an omelette.
Sweet-meat jars or bottles may be
cleaned without scraping them, by
pouring into the jars hot water and a
teaspouulul or two of pearlash. The
contents which remain sticking to the
sides and bottom of the Jar will be dis
engaged by the pearlash and float loose
in the water.
To fill cracks in stoves, take equal
parts or salt and wood ashes, make into

enough, one would suppose, to amuse

broken, lay nnder the elephant. His

crying.

"I would if I were snre he wonld not

The Hortt Hotel. There are several

They each have beds for hundreds of

one of all, is on Third avenue, between
Sixty-fifth and Sixty-sixth streets. It
is one vast iron building, six hundred
feet long and two hundred wide, and
covers an entire block. It is three
stories high, with a basement, and two
thousand horses belonging to the l bird
Avenue Railroad Company reside there
in a style of splendor and luxury quite
unknown to horses who have never
traveled from their native farms. There
are waiting and reception rooms, nice
quarters for horses who happen to have
a cold or a headache; there is a tine
hospital fof those who are very sick ;
there is a house surgeon and shoe
maker, to say nothing of a cobbler to
put on new heels or otherwise repair
their shoes : and there L a housekeeper
and a wnolearmy of waiters and cham
ber-maids : also, a chiet cook, with a
dozen assistants. Altogether, the hotel
is unsurpassed for horse-luxury aDd
elegance; and if the horses could tell
what they think about it, doubtless
there would be a mass meeting of the
guests, with a vote of thanks to the
managers, or at least a committee of
