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.

(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. Hay Fever. Mr. A.

One of the oddest sights in the south is to see the negroes hang arouud the postoflice. They are the fiast ones to call in the morniug and the last to leave at flight, and it ia by no means rare to have them inquire for mail tou to 61tecn times a day. 1 wan in the office at Marietta, Ga., when an aged darkey limped in and iuquircd: 'Am dar' fo' or live letters heah for June-broke Dude?'

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 | w bieh all ChribUan3 should gladly | contribute anil in which they may ' gladly co-operate.

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.
