In baking buckwheat and other griddle cakes, a piece of fat meat as a 'greaser' is by many thought to be indispensable. Those who are of this opinion will, ou trial, soon learn tha a turnip divided in two answers thj same or a better purpose, as the odor the most un pleasant part of cake bakiug comes from the greaser in contact with the hot iron, whereas, with the turnip, very little of this is perceptible. French Pickles.

The vegetables to be boiled half an hour in water, and drained be fore putting in the spice and vinegar. Scallofed Oysteus. Crush and roll several handfnls of Boston or other nice crackers; put a layer in the bottom of a , buttered pudding dish; wet this with a mixture of the oyster liquor and milk, slightly warmed; next put a layer of oysters; sprinkle with salt and pepper and put bits of butter upon t'icm; then another layer of moistened crumbs, and repeat until the dish is full; let tho top layer be of crumbs thicker than the rest, and beat au egg into a little milk and pour over them; t ut bits of butter j thickly over it and bake half au hour.

A subscriber sends a method of pre ventin a cow from sucking herself; this is simply to fasten to tho horns a long, sharp poin tad stick by means of strong pieces of twine. The pointed stick should extend about a foot outride of tho horns. This bimplo contrivance prevents tho cow from reaching tho tent when disposed to suck herself. The stick should be removed as soon as it is evident that the cow has lost tho incli nation to suck herself, which will be after a short time.

We note, says an exchange, that the old controversy abont tarring or paint ing shingles and fences is being revived again, oa the principle, we snppoao, that as au old generation passes away the new one wants to learn wholly for itself what it wants to know, and that some people are still resorting to it. It ought, however, to bo generally kuowu by this time that not moisture only, but heat and moisture, either or both, aro tho agents iu the doc.ty of woo.iy mat ter. Most persons seem to think it is moisture alone, and hoaoo all that is roquirod is to coit the woo.l with some substanco that will keep tho witer out. To b3 sure, they know th'tt boat, when it is up to wh'tt W3 ku w U th ) b muii: point, will destroy ww I, b it they aactn to forget that even whon uot burning heat is destructive only in alesB degree. Any black substauce, therefore, which attracts heat, though it m ty keep out the other destructive elmnont, w.iter, tdds to the desTUitivd aeueue at work on the wood, an 1 should b-J avoided wherever duration is au object. It needi ua uuleratandiug of these laws, however, to kuovv tint t ir or any black snbitanco tends ta rot wood away much faster than wool that has had nothing at all dona to it. A fence tar red and expose 1 to tho full sua, as auy observer knows, soon crumbles away. In a few yoats the wood is like au over done pio crust. And thon a'l kuow how long a raero whitewash :d fene lasts. Yet thero is u.i preservative character of much account in lime. Every rain goes through it into the wood, but it is tho white rvlcr, which rather turns away the heat than attracts it, which is in that case the gre-ct agent which preserves it so long. In all discussions as to tho preserva tion of wood by paints or coatings, therefore, wo sea that tho color of the washes or paints is au important point iu the argument. As for tar, it is the very worst thing that could be used where thero is exposure to the sun. Under ground, or where there is no heat for it to attract of consequence, it is another ma!fer, and does possess more or less preservative power. A "Jiavaare" Kins. In vie of the probability if war be tween Abyssinia aud Ejypt, this de scription of tho kiugof the former coun try, which ia gent rally looked upon as inhabited by barbarians, will bo read with iuteres : K;cg John of Abyssinia, although otly in his thirty-eighth year, has already proved Limt-elf a man of no ordinary caliber, both as a soldier and as a sovereign, Ho has thrice defeated and all but destroyed the iuvading forces of Egypt, while at thesane time making heRd agains-t tho disaffection of two powerful vassals, who have since mi lo snbmiesion and accepted commands in his army. Among his immediate at tendants is the Uis Wnroniii, the con quered chit f of the Amhr.ra province, who seems quite ct ntet.t with his posi tion at the ecu; t of his conqueri r. A traveler, wi.o spent sometime with the kin;; in his camp at Ambiichtira, de ccr.hta him as -'icil in stature, with small linn it an 1 feet, but perfectly pro portioned and possessing great strength and cmuirar.ee.

King John's ceaseless activity and wonderful capa city for bn-iness recall the populur de scriptions of Frederick the Gresr, to whose personal habits his own are in some points closely "kin. He rises every morning at three, and reads tho Psalms of David by candlelight for two hours. Then comus church, after which ho holds his court of justice for several hours, often before taking food.

Of those primitive days before tho Revolution it is recorded of 'Biltimore town' that 'as all were peaceable and healthy, lawyers snd doctors found little to do, bnt ttadesnieu and workingmen found ready pay and coustaut employ ment. Women's wages especially were high, as the sex was not numerous; and as they generally married by the time they were twenty, they sought a maid servant for themselves iu turn. A duty of from live to twenty shillings per an num was laid upon all bachelors, and old maids were not to be met with, neither jealousy of husbands. The chil dreu were well favored and beautiful to behold, aud without the least blemish. A fran k and generons hospitality pre vailed, t'ovoid of glaro and show, bnt always abuudant and good. It ishfulucss and modesty iu the young wero regarded as virtnes, and young lovers liteued gravely, aud took sideloDg glances be foro their elders. At evertide the fam ily, neatly dressed, sat in the street perch and welcome I their neighbors. It was custo'nary to live at one's place of business, aud tho wives and daugh ters served tho shop, retailers of dry goods being mostly widows and spin sters. If a townsman failed iu trade it was a cause of general and deep regret. Every man who met his ueighbor ex pressed his sorrow. Bankruptcy was a rare occurrence, becsuse honesty end temperance in trade were then univer sal, and none embarked without means adequate to their business. At Christ mas, dinners and suppers went the round of every social circle, and they who l artook of the former were expect ed to remain for tho snpper. Afternoon visits were made at such on hour as to permit matrons to go home and see their children put to bed. 'Between tradesmen and tho gentry there was a marked difference, Tho aristocracy of the gentlemen was noticed if not felt. 8uch as followed rough trades, and all men and boys from the country, were seen on the streets in leather breeches and aprons, and would have been deemed out of place without them. Hired women wore short gowns and linsy-woolsey petticoats, and some ar still alive who used to call matter and iiu'streit who will ro longer do it. Cookery was plainer thsn now, and eoffre as a beverage was used but rarely. Chocolate was tho morning and evening drink, and thickened milk for children. A whito floor, tprinMed with clean sil ver sau.l, l irge tables and high-backed chairs of solid waln-;t or mahogany, decorated a parlor enough for the best. Sometimes a carpet, not, however, cov ering the whole floor, was seen upon tho diniug-rooai. Thee was a show pprlor tip-stairs, not used but upon gala occasion. Pewter plates were in gen end use, but china was a rarity. Date, iu tho form of bowls, tankards and w aiters, was seeu in most families of easy circumstances. Fundi, tho most com rnon beverage, whs drunk from one large bowl, and ber from a tankard of silver. At dancicr; assemblies no gen tlemun under vwenty-ono or hdy under eighteen w.is admitted, and the supper consisted of tea, chocolate aud rns'i. Six married managers distributed part ners by lot for tho eveniug, leaving nothiug to tho sttcc 'ss of forwardness or favoritism. Gentlemen always drank tea with tLe parents of tho Indies who wore their partu rs, the day after the assembly. Invitations wero jiriutod on playing-cards: 'The honor of Miss 's company at a ball to be held at six o'clock p. m.,' indorses tho queen of heart?, and is oueof many such trophies still preserved. Harper's M'tyazine, John Randolph in the Semite. An old-time politician, writing in the Atlantic of noted characters whom he met in Washington in the last century, thus pelves up John Randolph of Roan oke: J'jhn Randolph attracted the most attention on the part of strangers. Ho was at least six feet in height, with long limbs and an ill-proportioned body and a small, rennd head. Clausing descent from Pocahontas, ho wore his coarse, black hair long, parted in tho middle, and combed down on either side of his sallow face. Flis small, black eyes were fxprcssive in their rapid glances, espe cially when he was eugaged in debate. j and his high-toned rnd thin voice would ring through the pecate chamber liko the Bhrill scream of an angry vixen. He I wore a full suit of heavy, drnb-eolorcd ; English broadcloth, the high, rolling collar of his surtont coat almost conceal ing his heal, while his skirts hung in voluminous folds about his kneebreech -es and the white leather top of his boots.

There are in Nebraska 111 Congrega tional churches, with 71 pastors and 3,121 members, of whom 483 were ad mitted dnriug the past year.

Then, having, in a half hour, gradually goaded yontofrecsy, he blandly fays: 'Only forty cents, sir.' The Starry Dippers. There are three gronps of stars which form a fancied resemblance to that uten sil commonly known as the dipper. One of those is in the constellation of the Little Bear, another in the Great Bear, and the third, in Sagittarius, call ed from its situation on tho milky way the Lower Bear, has attracted more than ordinary attention from tho fact that the pole star, or star nearest to the sta tionary point in the northern sky, is the last in the handle of this dipper. The dipper of tho Great Bear ia com pose! of seven bright stars. A line drawn from the last two etars in the bowl of tho dipper in this constellation passes nearly through the north ftir, heuce thoso two slars havj received the name of tho pointers.' As the polo star is the guide of the mariner on the trackless ocean, and the forlorn hope of tho bewildered traveler on the limitless prairie, these stars possess an interest licit attaches to no other of the suns which night reveals in tho heavens. Both the Great and Little Dipper are visiblo evory clear night in this latitude, sometimes above the pole, and at other periods below it, bnt never sinking be low the horizon. The Milk Dipper in Sagittarius, like other constellations of the zodiac, is visiblo only a part of the year, being most conspicuous during the summer month". The snn enters this constella tion in December. Tho early navigators directed their courses by the Ploiades, or seven stars, probably from their being easily recognized. Bnt as tiny were visible only at certain seasons of tho year, they were abandoned for the more reliable guido of the polar star when observation had pointed it out aa the center abont which the stars appeared to revolve. Besides its usefulness and beauty as seen by the nnaided eye, the constella tion of the Great Boar, Ursa Major, pre sents many objects of interest when viewed through the teleseopo. The middle star in the handle of tho Dipper, called by the Arabian astronomers Mi zar, is a double star, tho two having a period of revolution abont the common center of both of abont sixty years. This star can be observed to be double by a common spy glass. A small star, seen near to Mizar with tho naked eye is not physically connected with the stars in the Great Bear. The inhabi tants of tho earth, familiar only with the phenomenon presented by one sun, can have but a faint idea of the appearance presented by two suns, as is tho case with Mizsr, rising and sotting, both appearing in the sky at the snmo time, or one alono causing dny and the other below the horizou. In tho Great Bear there are two sin gular nebula or clond like patches of light, one of thorn with two bright spots in tho center, the other of nn oval form with a white nucleus. Although so in teresting to the inhabitants of the north -em latitudes, both from its n'efulness and its being always visible, yet it is never seen by thoso residing south, of the eqnator, and although tbey rejoice in beholding tho constellation of the Cross, even it has contributed less to tho safety of navigation and the exten tension of commerce and civilization than the Great and Little Bear which eonstantlv adorn the northern sky. The Rural French Peasant. A traveler in Franca does not thiuk very highly of the averago peasant of that eouulry, saying all that a French peasant lives for may be summed np in three words, 'to save money.' He is hard-headed, avaricious, piteonsly prac tical. He is crafty, cautious aud con servative. I am sorry I can not give him a better character, but habit and tradition have made him a simple ins chine, calk.os at heart, utterly devoid of sentiment and feeling. His morula, iu practice at least, are as rigidly correct as any Puritan's, for he knows very well that immorality is apt in the long run to prove expeusive. He pajs religious ly and punctually every sou ho agrees to pay; he exacts with equal rigor and punctuality every centimo that is com ing to him. He r.evcr goes ever twenty miles away from home duritg the whole conrso of his life, nulcss it happens that military erviee c ills him with other conscripts to sims distant town. As for politics, what does he care for em. pire, monarchy er repnblic? Faeh of them, ho says, makes hint pay the same taxos, and do the same military service. It is a hard, cut aud dried ciister.ee ho leads year in and year out, yet he never complains so long as each passing day sees a fifty-centime pieco added to his miser btorcs. He glories in his bine blouse, such as his father and grand father wore before bim, and his sons will wear after him. He lives to a green old age; he toils on tip to almost the last days of his long, laborious life, and then some tine day, followed by a double file, of other peasauts in blouses and bon nets, he is carried into the village church, which probably saw him only too soldom during his lifetime; a few prayers are mumbled over hira. and le is laid to aloep bet ido his progr ::itT.-i in the conntrv churohvard. atuitiethlnsT fur llit New TiMtr.

We find in our exohauges this para graph on diphtheria going the rounds: A child in Auhurn, ill of diphtheria, whuao life was despaired of, was otired by slaking lime. Small lumps of lime were kept constantly slaking near it mouth for more than a day and a half, until more than a barrel of lime was thus slaked. The child was thought to bo djing before this remedy was em ployed. It breathed the fumes of the iimo constantly nutil enred. Ilanyor (Me.) Will it. This may sound queer, tint it is not only a cure if properly used fordiph the ria, but iu connoctiou with hot steam it opitively cures membraueous cronp. That dread scourge of so many house holds, whoso light and joy of life has gone out with tho loss of loved children, is no longer an nnmanageablo disease. Io tho hands of such practitioners of the regu'nr school as Dr. Stevens, of Hartford, Dr. Goodrich, of Vernon and a number of others, the method of iiBiog steam mingled with the fumes of slaked litno is very successful in both diphthe ria and 'old-fashioned croup.' The bed is covered over and made as close a tent ns possible. Into this close tcut whore tho littlo patient lies and imiBt lie kept, a pipe is introduced which leads from boiling water near tho bedside. Dr. Stevens has and all doctors should have a handy little portable contriv ance for this purpose. Into a pan of warm water lumps of unslaked lime are occasionally dropped; the slaking makes of course a hot ferment and bubbling, and the limy fnmea pretty well fill the tcut and are breathed by tho child. It may or may not require a nurse or parent to stay much of the time in tho tent, on tho bed with the child, to keep it quiet or contented. Sometimes it takes two or threo days-the boiling water and limo being duly renewed ns often as they f il, and the hot air and steam in the little teut kept up night aud day.
