The Medicinal Value ol Veget-'
nblCH*
A celebrated cook book discusses the
mediciual value of vegetables, as fol
lows : "Asparagus is a strong dirutie,
and forms part of the cure for rheu
matic patients at such health resorts
aa Aix-les-Baihs. Sorrel is cooling
and forms the staph* of that soup and
herbs which the French lady w id order
for herself after a long and tiring
iournev. Carrots, as containing a
quantity of sugar, are avoided by some
people, while others complain ol tbem
as indigestible. With regard to the
latter accusation, it may be remarked,
in passing, that it is the yellow core of
the carrot that is difficult of digestion
eater a red layer, is tender
enough. In Savoy, the peasants have
recourse to an infusioU ol carrots as a
specific for jaundice. _
The iarge sweet oaiun is very rich
in those alkalioe elements which coun
teract the p&i*ou of rheumatic-gout.
If Slowly stewed in weak broth, and
eaten with a little Nepa'ul pepper, it
will be found to be an admirable article
of diet for patients of atudiou* and
sedentary habits. The stalks on. cauli
floWer have the same aort ot value,
ouly too often the stalk of a cauliflower
is iijUbodied and uupalitable that few
jiersons would thank you for proposing
to tbem to make part of their meal cou
ni&t of so uuiu.vitin" an article, lur
nips, in the tamo way, are often
thought wte indigestible, and better
suited for cows and sheep than for deli
cate people; but here the fault lies
with the cook quite as much as with
the root. The cook boils the turuip
badly, a:*d then pours some butter
over it, and the eater of such a dish is
sure to be the wrw* 1 it. Try a better
way. What shall be said about our
lettuce?? The plant has a slight nar
erotic action, of which a French old
woman, like a French doctor, well
knows the value, and when properly
cooked it really very easy of diges
tion."
A Peculiar Funeral Ceremony.
BOSTOV, July 31.—A very peculiar
and interesting ceremony was perform
ed by the Chinese at the funeral of
Moy Dick Gam to-day, who died of
pneumonia a day or two ago. Between
thirty and forty Chinamen assembled,
••lad in full nativo costume, and each
wearing a white silk apron, upon
which were worked in velvet the
square and compass— the symbol of
the Chinese Masonic Order of United
Chinese Brethren—of which the dead
Mongolian was a member. The first
section of mourners numbered about
fifteen, carrying red and black serge
flags, trimmed with white, which form
some Chinese characters. Headed by
the Metropolitan baud of twenty
pieces, the procession marched through
some of the principal streets to the
place of funeral. The coffin was placed
on two stools iu the center of the street
Ashburton place, a quiet and retired
locality—and two tables covered with
white cloths were placed at ends of
coflin. A roasted pig and dead sheep
were laid on the first table, beside a
bowl of rice, in which were placed a
number of small lighted torches and
candles; on the second table th'-re were
a large dish of baked rice and a Chinese
box, besides a number of small cups
filled with rice and chopsticks. After
a few minutes of silence six Chinese,
who assumed the duties of Buddhist
priests, and who were dressed in white
ar.d black costumes, appeared at the
sides of the coffin and tables and chant
ed prayers and responses. The tables
were cleared of the first food, and on
the first table they laid a piece of pork
and another roasted pig, while on the
second table oranges a:sd different va
rieties of Chinese food were placed.
Tho prayer for the dead was again re
sumed, lasting nearly a half-hour.
After prayers to "Joss" had been
duly rendered, those of tho Chinese
who wished paid their respects to the
dead by coming to the front of the first
table, two by two, and kueeling and
bowing their heads to the ground a
number of times. During the services,
the Chiuese band, consisting of a
"Tom Tom," cymbals and other instru
ments, played different selections. The
procession then marched to Mount
Hope, where the interment took place,
the grave being covered with eatables
used at the funeral and quantities of
prayer on slips of paper, many of
which were distributed along the
road.

UACINK, Wis, Aug. (J.—During the
approaching term of the Circuit Court
in this city a suit will lie instituted,
wh'ch for magnitude and general inter
est will exceed any other case ever
tried in this part of the country. The
ease is brought by the United States
Kleetric Light Company, of New York,
against the Kdisors Kleetric Light,
Company, of the same city, and virtu
ally involves the existence of the giant
corporation's claim ofbeing the invent
or of the incandescent electric light
On behalf of tho United States Com
pany it is claimed that the light was
really invented by W. K. Freeman, a
wellknowu scientist in this city, and
that Kdison, after seeing Freeman's
invention, took out patents iu Ins own
name. Freeman is in the employ of
the Uuited States Company as electri
cian. The best patent lawyers iu the
country have la-en einragfd and over
3,000 depositions have already been
t»ken. The Uuited States Company
ch»Mii that the only hope Kdisot) has is
in staving off the suit for three cr four
years end reaping tho benefit of the
business of the intervening time.
Punched Coins Counterfeit. |
An opinion ot timely interest was |
recently rendered by Judge Lowell, ,
of the United States Circuit Court_, in J
Ma.-*achusKts, with reference to silver ;
qiiarters and half dollars with pieces
cut out and the boles filled with other
metal. Judge Lowell holds that such
coin 3 are iu effect counterfeit, and that
1 whoever, so mutilates them or knowing- j
ly passes tbem is guilty of counterfeit
ing. The reasoning by which he reach
es this conclusion is that coins of these
denominations are required to be of a
certain weight and fineness, and are
not a legal tender if they fall below the
fixed standard. 'lf such a coin, be
says, 'has had an appreciable amount
jof silver removed from it we cannot
sav that it remains a good coin for its
! original value, or even for pioportion
i ate value. It; then, the hole is plugged
! with base rr.etal or with aoy substance
| other than silver this is an act of coun
i tcrfeiting, because it is making soiue
' thing appear to be a good coin for its
I apparent value which was not so be
! fore.' This decision ought to be a
! timely warning to the rascals who
bave not scrupled to filch bits of silver
i from coins to the annoyance and incon
veniencc of the eutire community.

General Scripture Circulation.
The Americau Bible Society bas un
dertaken ibe iourtb general supply ot
tlie I'n.ted State 3 with the Holy Scrip- \
tares. Its purpose is lo cauvass the
cJuutry and furnish a copy of the j
Bible to every family and every person
who will recieve it" The magnitude ,
of the work is to be seen from the ,
growth of our country in extent and •
population. At the d;tte ot the firet
general supplv iu 1829 —-30, the popu
lation was 12,866,000, and Missouri
' was the most western State. W hen
the.second distribution occurred, in
1856; the population was 26,500,000,
and seyen new States had been added,
including Texas and California In
j 1866, the Society's Jubilee, when a
1 third distribution was made as a thank
offering, the population was nearly SI
millions, covering 36 States and fuur
Territories. There are now 38 States,
nine Territories and the District of
Columbia, and the population numbers
nearly 53 millions; emigrants are com
ing in at the rate of a thousand a day.
The need of such a thorough distribu
: tion is seen in the fact that out ot 714,-
636 families visited by the Society's
1 representatives, by pastors and private
distributors, 111,932 were found with
out the Scriptures, and 81,995 were
supplied, besides 46,430 individuals
not included in these families. 101.095
volumes of the Scriptures, in fifteen
i languages, were distributed among thj
' newly arrived immigrants at the port
;of New York This is a work to

The CrosH Mark.
The mark which persons who are un
able to write are required to make in
stead of their signature is iu the form
of a cross, and" this practice, having
formerly been followed by kings and
nobles, is constantly referred to as an
|.,jt-inrP of the deplorable ignorance of
ancient time*. This signature is not,
however, invariable proof of such ignore
ance. Anciently, the use of tbia mark
was not confiaed to illiterate persons,
for amoiig the Saxons the mark of the
(TO3P, a 8 an attestation of the person
signing, waa require*} to be attached to
the signature of those who could write
as well as to stand in the place of the
signature of those who couid not write,
(tl those times, if a man could write, or
oven read, hiu knowledge was consid
ered proof positive that he was in
Holy Orders. The word clericus, or
clerk, was Bynonomous with penman,
and the laity, or people who were not
clerks, did not feel any urgent neces
sity for the use of letters. The ancient
use or tuo cross was, therefore, unives
sal alike by those who toyjd and those
who could n<>t write. It was, indeed,
the symbol of an oath from its early
associations, and generally the mark.
On this account Mr. Charles Knight,
in his notes in the "J'ietorial Hhakcs
peare" explains the expression of "(Jod
save the mark !" as a form of ejacula
tion approaching to the character of an
oath. The phrase occurs three or four
times in the plays of Shakespeare, but
for a long time was left by the com
mentators iu its original obscurity.
