Ladies wear them as a covering for their heads when going to plays or concerts. When a rigolette becomes soiled, wash it as follows: Steep it in warns water till the water be comes cool; squeeze it out lightly, and soap it well with the best white soap. Lay the rigolette, loosely, in a clean cullender.— Set the cullender over a pan of boiling water, and let it steam till cool. Then squeeze it out, and shake it well. Wash the cullender clean Put the rigolette again into it, and place it over a fresn pan of warm water, work it lightly up and down, till the steam has rins.d off the soap. Then open it out, shake it, and dry it fast in the sun. A long zephyr scarf may be washed in the same manner. Also, a netted or kit ted shawl of fine woollen yarn. The shawl should be done in a small tub. No sort of fine woolen should be rinsed in cob/ water. The transition from warm to cold will shrink it. And it should be shaken out and dried, as fast as possible. Dr:mews CUTLET.—First take your cutlet and beat it well with the flu side of the cleaver, or with a rol'ing-pin ; beat it BUTTER-Affix one pound for at least five minutes ; then, having of flour, one pound of sugar, half a pound thrown a quantity of butter, eggs, and of butter, live eggs, and half a pint of but flour, into a frying-pan, when the mixture ter-milk. Beat the eggs well, then add is hissing hot, fling your cutlet in, and the sugar, then the milk, then the flour, there let it stew. The mixture penetrates and the butter, which must be washed and to the core, and is imbibed in every part ; creamed. Add a tea-spoonful of soda, and and when the dish is laid steaming be fore flavor with lemon, and bake slowly in a you, your olfactory sense is refreshed. and your palate is delighted with veal, not in sipid, • as veal generally is, but with a mor sel maim with odoriferous juices, having' the same relation to an ordinary chop, as buttered toast at Christmas time has to dry hard bread, or a well-larded woodcock, served at the Tror's Freres, to a red legged partridge roasted to the fibre in Spain.— Serve with tomato sauce KEEPING APPLES.—the most effectua I method of preserving both apples and pears ' at this season, is this ;—Elaving selected the best fruit, wipe it perfectly clean and dry with a fine cloth ; then take a jar of suitable size, the inside of which is thor oughly coated with cement, and, having placed a layer of fine sand, perfectly dry, at the bottom, place thereon a layer of fruit, and then a layer of sand. In this way proceed till the vessel is full. Over the upper layer of fruit a thick stratum of sand may be spread, and lightly pressed down with the hands. Keep the jar from moisture. COMPOTE OF APPLES.—Pore six large apples, cut them in half, and put them in to a pan, with a little water and lemon juice. Next, clarify half a pound of su gar, skim it, and put the apples into it, ad ding the juice of a lemon. Set the whole on the tire. Turn the apples frequently, and cook theta until they era sufficiently soft to be easily penetrated by a fork.-- Then take them out; strain the syrup, and reduce it by boiling ; strain it again and pour it over the apples. They may be served either hot or cold. Cut the peel of a rosy apple into various devices, and lay them on the table as a garnish. CORN BREAD.—As made at Green's, in Chambers street, N. Y.:—Take seven pints of yellow corn meal, three pints of wheat flour, and mix them well together. Then six well•beaten eggs, two cups of melted butter, of about the consistency or stiffness of paste, prepared for drop cake ; then dissolve three teaspoonfuls of cream of tartar and the sante of soda : pour it upon the mass, stir it thoroughly, and dip it at once into pans, and bake it in a bet oven. To ; - , alzo Lard and Tallow Candles• 'I he lulloa it g method of making the a bove named citation is described in the Nt.n , England Farmer by a correspondent : keep both tallow and lard candles through the last summer, the lqrd candles standing the heat best, and burning quite as well , and giving as go ql light as tallow ones. Directions for making good candles from lard : For lbs. of lard take Ilb of saltpeter and 1 lb. of alum ; mix and pulverize them ; dissolve the saltpeter and alum 111 a gill of boiling water; pour the compound into the lard before it is quite all melted; stir the whole until it boils, and skim off what rises ; let it simmer un til the waver is all boiled out, or till it cea ses to throw 4tff swain ; pour off the lard as soon as it is done, and clean the boiler while it is hot. If the candles are to be run, you may commence immediately ; if to be dipped let lard cool first to a cake, and then treat it as you would tallow." To RestorE SrAnis COON TILE HANDS.-- Damp the hands first in water, then rub them with tartaric acid, or salt of lemons. us you would with soap ; rinse them. and rub them dry. Tartaric acid, or salt of !emons will quickly remove stains from white muslin or linens. Put less than half a teaspoonful of the salt or acid into a tablespoonful of water; wet the stain with it, and lay it in the sun for an hour : wet it, once or twice, with cold water du ring the time. If this does not quite re move it, repeat the acid water, aad lay it in the sun. SQUASH. GINOcItOREAD LOAF—One pound of flour, one pound of treacle, quarter of a pound of butter, one egg, one ounce of ginger, some candied peel, and a few ear raway seeds, ground, a teaspoonful of so da. To be baked in a slow oven. The flour to be mixed in gradually ; the butter and treacle to be milk warm ; the soda to be put in last. Let it stand half an hour to rise. Ptum said that Mr. John Brush, of Brooklyn, has saved the plums on a number of trees, the present season, by binding hunches of tansy upon the trees thus treated ripened to perfection ; while that near by, not thus protected, was entirely destroyed by curculio. This is an item worth remembering for the next seam. CHRISTMAS TEA CAKE.—'fake three eggs, and beat them well; and add one pint of milk, and of butter the size of an egg. Then flour sufficiently to make it the thickness of cream. Take three good applas, and, after cutting them very fine, stir in and bake. When done, score the cake on the top, and pour over it melted butter and sugar, and it is ready to eat. OYSTER ToasX::-Cruise one anchovy fine in a mortar; take twenty oysters, cut off Vieir beards, and chop them small.— Mix the anchovy and oysters in a sauce pan, with as much cream as will make them of a good consistency. Add a little cayenne pepper ; spread them, when quite hot, on a round of hot, well-buttered toast; cut as for anchovy toast. 1101 V TO DRESS A HAM.—Boil it in hock a quarter of an hour to each pound ; then put it in an oven, and bake it another quar ter of an hour to the same weight ; and I will venture to say the epicures will ac knowledge that nothing can be more deli cious. Fla PUDDINO —Half pound of figs, half pound of flour, two eggs, half pound of suet, a little sugar, and little wine, salt, and various spices. To be boiled in a tin shape for four hours. USEFUL REcEuvr.--Wounds in cattle are 'quickly cured by washing several times a day with a mixture of the yolk of eggs and spirits of turpentine.---Phila. Ledger. Prayer. Prayer was not invented; it was born with the first sigh, the first joy, the first sorrow of the human heart ; or rather man was born to pray ; to glorify God, or to im plore him was his only mission here be low ; all else perishes before him or with him; but the cry of glory or admiration, or love which he raises towards the Crea tor, does hot perish on his passing from the earth; it re-ascends, it resounds from age to age, in the ear of the Almighty, like the reflection of his own magnificence. It is the only thing in man which is wholly di vine ; and which be can exhale with joy and pride ; in an homage to Him to whom homage alone is due—the infinite and eter nal Being.—Larnartine. oss..A good newspaper is like a sensi ble and sound•heurted friend, whose ap• penrance on one's threshold gladdens the mind with tho promise of a pleasant and profitable hour.
