MAN. —We take the following rich
morsal from one of Dow, Jr.'s short pa
tent sermons:
~ .Man looks upon life just as he does
upon women—there is fib living with
them and he can't live Without them.—
He will ruff after them, and rather than
be held he Will lose his coat tail and
character—kiss them for his love, and
then kiss them for leading him into
trouble. So with life : he partakes of
his pleasures, and then cures it for its
pains: lathers boquets. of bliss and
when Their blossoms have faded, he
finds himself in the posession of a bunch
of briars, which is all owing to a little
incident that occurred in Paradise, when
man was as green as a .tobacco worm
and us unsuspecting: as a tree-toted in a
thunder storm. He was told to increase
and multiply, and so he accordingly in
creased his cares and curses, and multi.
plied his miseries, and peopled the world

A CUTE INDIAN—We were somewhat

which he learned from an old Sta-cap

. The recipe is very simple,
and the su
periority of pickles cured by its direc
lions, has been tested by many years'
experience. They are neither affected
by age or climate. The following is the'
rceeipt :
"To each hundred of cucumbers put
a pint of salt, and pour in boiling water .
sufficient to cover the whole. Cover-
them tight, to prevent the steam from
escaping, and in this coftdition let them
stand for twenty-four hours. They are
