Reasons Tlftu-
Why does boUIng fast render
meat hard T Because the excessive
action of heat causes the albumen
of the meat to set solid, crisps np
the fleshy fibers and prevents the
interior. -
Why. when a good soap or broth
Is required, sboald tbe meat be put
into cold water! Because as the
heat la developed very gradually
there occurs an intermixture be
tween the juices of tbe flesh and
tbe external matter.' The solable
and the savory parts ct the meat
escape and enrich the soap.
Why are stews generally health
fal and digestible ! Because, being
con pounds of various substances,
they contain all i the elements of
nutrition, and, as the office of tho
stomach ia to liquify solid food
before digesting it, the previous
stewing assists tha stomach in this
particular. .1 I
What causes tbe crackling noise
when lard Is put into a frying pan f
Lard always contains some portion
of water, and It Is tbe expression
of this water iato steam, forcing Its
way through the fat. Tbe heat at
which fat or oil boila ia much great
er than water. When the crack
ling ceases the water has been
driven off from the tat, and wbtn
the fat begins lo boil or babble its
heat will be very high.
Why, In frying fish, should tbe
fat or oil be made very but before
the fish are put in T Because, if
the temperature is. low when tbe
fish is put into the frying pan, it
becomes sodden in tbe steam form
ed by its water; but if tbe oil is
very much heated the water will
be at once driven off, and the fish
nicely browned by the scorching
oil. i ;; J
Why shonld fish or meat that is
being fried be frequently turned!
Because, tbe turning assists In tbe
evaporation of the water. When
the fish or meat ia allowed to lie
too long tbe steam is generated
under it and the surfsee becomes
sodden; and the caomeat the steam
is driven out, the surface catches
to the hot pan and becomes burnt
and broken. j . j
Why is broiled meatsojaicy and
savory f Because the action of tbe
fire, hardening its surface, seals up
the pores through which the juices
might escape. It acta in the same
way that the sadden dip Into boil
ing water does upon the joints of
meat, bnt more effectually. To
tarn broiling meat never use a fork
but tongs; a fork opens an escape
for the juice, and wastes tbe best
parts of the meat i !
Why is cabbage rendered more
wholesome and nutritious by being
boiled in two waters? Because
cabbage contains an essential oil
which isspt to produce bad effect;
and it is recommended' that it
sboald be boiled in two successive
waters, and then it is soft and
digestible. 1 i i
Co 2ns are now made of piper,
according to the Paper Trade Joxr
aL which Journal pronounces it as
M rather running things into tbe
ground." i
There are a number of tbe five
dollixxold pieces In circulation that
are counterfeit. Examine them
carefully before yoa take them.
The counterfeit coin is not more
tbia half as ttavy as the genuine.

The plant known as the vanilla,
or more commonly as dog tongne
is getting to be quite an important
article of export here. About
seventy-five bales (about the size
ot txtton bales) were received for
shipment at tbe depots in this place
during the past week, mostly from
Magnolia, twenty-five of which
were to go to Hew York, twenty
five to Chicago and tbe remaining
twenty-five to some other northern
city. Considerable quantities of
the plant are to oe round in me
neighborhood of Wilmington, and
many of tbe colored people make
it a part of their business to gather
it in bags and take it to persons
who purchase it for the northern
markets. The Diant is said to be a
very prolific one, the leaves which
are broken off being soon replaced
by fresh ones, and is valuable on
account of its medicinal and flavor
ing qaalities. It is also prized by
housewives, who use it to impart a
pleasant odor to tbe contents of
trunks, bureau 'drawers, etc. IFii.

..w Augasr y. At a
mef'tiug of tn Chamber ot Com
to-day Charles 8. Smith, F.
is, xnarber, Jacob Wendell. John
r. Terry and Osgood Welsh were
appointed delegates to a transpor-
tauiuu conierence, to be held at
utica on tbe 18th instant. The
call was signed by many prominetit
larmers tnronghout the State "to

a. special committee on railroad
transportation submitted a reoort
on tne cnanges which haverecento
a a -
tasen place in the freight and
passenger rates and parsed resolu
tions thanking tbe managers of the
trunk lines for the general redac
tion In west-bound open rates and
declaring that the only discrimina
tion jastioable on tbe part of h
common carrier, either as regards
persons or places, is that based
upon "cost of service," and upon
tms Daais asking the trunk lines ri
make a thorough examination and
if borne out by the facts to claim
an equal rate with all other sea
ooard cities, and to remember
their often repeated assertion that
the amonnt of watered stock has
nothing to do with the cost of
transportation. They also depre
cate the practice of making
excessively low rates during the
season of navigation aod unreason
amy nign rates during tbe winter
a. a a . a , a
moDioi tnat tms is not only a
discrimination against the State,
which, as owner of the canals,
cannot afford to permit this prac
tice, out it is also detrimental to
the best interests of commerce
generally. Another resolution de
clares that reasonable, uniform and
pnblio rates of freight will best
serve tbe interests of both the
publio and tbe railroads; that they
willingly concede rates which will
pay liberal dividends upon tbe
actual cost of construction of these
modern highways, but that stock-
watering is a crime against the
publio which should be prohibited
by severe penalties. Phil. Times.

Salt for the Throat.
Tn these davs. when diseases of
the throat are so nniversally preva
lent, and in so many cases fatal, we
f-l it our dotv to say a worn in
behalf of a most (ffeotual, if no;
tositive cure for sore throat.
For many years past, indeed we
may say during tbe whole ot a life
of more than forty years, we have
been subject to sore throat, and
particularly to a dry hacking
cough, which is not only distress
ing to onrselves, but to our friend
nri thnaa with whom we are
brought Into business contact.
Last fall we were induced to try
what vii tue there was in common
salt. We commenced by using it
three times a day morning, noon
and night. We dissolved a large
tablespoonful of pure table ealt in
abont a half small tumbler full ot
water. With this we gargle the
throat most thoroughly just before
meal time. The result has beeu
that during the entire winter we
were not only free from coughs and
colds, but the dry backing cough
has entirely disappeared.
.We attribute these satisfactory
results solely to tbe nse of salt
gargle, and "moat cordially recom
mend a trial of it to those who are
sobjec: to diseases of the throat.
Many persot-s who have never
tried the salt gargle have the im
pression that it i unpleasant.
Such is not ! the iC;e. On the
contrary, it is pleasant, and after a
few days' use no persou wlo loves

.Yarrow Escape at Itherille.
On Wednesday last, at Asheville,
Mihn Bettie Hawkins, of Franklin,
and Miss Sallie Carter, of Raleigh,
were rnjoying a pleasant horseback
ride in tbe suburbs of that! beauti
ful little city, when the j former
made a narrow escape, and but for
her wonderful presence of mind
and bravery under the most trying
circomatances, tbe angel ot deatn
would have claimed ber a victim.
While descending a steep hill they
discovered a double team attached
to a wagon coming in the rear at
fnll speed. Failing in the attempt
to escape on horseback Miss Bettie
dismounted, but lound it impossi
ble to make safe ber retread Hard
pressed by the maddened steeds,
death stared her in tbe face, out
ithicalm deliberation shje threw
hem't upon the ground, when tho
horses passed over on either side
and an instant afterward she was
clasped in the arms of her j friends
unhurt. Such was the fearfulnesa
of tbe scene and tbe anxiety oi
friends that, despite ber j earnest
protest, a physician was summoned,

When von wish to knd
what
and
the weather is to be, go put
select the smallest cloud iyou
see.
Keep your eyes upon
it. and if it
decreases and disappears it shows
a state of the air which will sure to
be followed by fine weather; but II
it increases in size take your great
.a a .Z m-
coat witn you, u you are going
from home, for falling weather is
uot far i ff The reason is this :
w ben the air is becoming charged
with electricity you will see every
cloud attracting all lesser ones
towards it, until it gathers into a
shower; aod, oo tne contrary, wnen

Farewell. JLard: Ifelcome, Oil?
The eating world will have occa
sion to throw np its cap it the
discovery lately announced that
cotton seed oil ia "a most satisfac
tory substitute for lard" be con.
firmed. I hope it is ' true, for the
sake especially of the many house
keepers who are sorely tried in
their cooking , by that product of
the swine, which, like butter, varies
in tbe quality, and whose odor.
wnen sizzing in tbe frying pani
awakens in the imaginative kitcW
en goddess visions of pent upj
garbage fed and slimy porkers and
perhaps a notion or two of trichina
snugly ensconced in j the cozy

vegetable oil. Its impressions are!
cool and historic and agreeable. It
whispers of dewy meadows, refreshi
tag ureezeu, sweet aromas, auu hu
on. But I lard ! Everything it;
suggests is heating and exasperat
ing. However, more to the point :
Col. Nelson, of HantsviIIe, Ala.,!
says he baa repeatedly used cotton,
seed oil at his hoase, aod finds it
equal to the best article of lard. A
hotel keeper at Memphis publishes
a statement to tbe same enect. it
has been tried by several citizens
of Tuscumbia, Ala., who ! say that
they can find no difference between.
the oil and lard as an article for
cooking. Tbe best thing about it;
as most economical housewives will
say, is the cost, that being now not
more than half the price; of the
pork extract. And should . this
discovery tarn out a fact undenia
ble what a revolution it will pro
duce in tbe pork trade I Aod
what an impulse it will give to the
cotton interest, coming just in time
to speed the revival of industry
and enterprise in the South.
Everybody mast grease the pan

Cuiteau and the Guard.
A Desperate Attempt to Kill One of
the Guard at the Jaiu
Washington, Angus! 17.. A
report was current here tms moru
ing that Guiteau had attempted to
kill one of the guards at ! the jail,
but it was stated at the police
headquarters that the report was
without foundation. It is learned,
however, that the report was true.
At an early hour this morning, as
W. C. McGill, one of the guards,
passed Guiteau's cell he noticed
something wrong and entered the
cell. He found a knife in Gaiteaa's
possession, and demanded it, but
Guiteau refused to give it up.
McGill drew! a pistol, and a strug
gle ensued. Guiteau made a des
perate effort ( to secure the pistol,
and succeeded in getting it away
from McGill after a severe struggle.
McGill regained possession of the
pistol, which, being ! discharged
during the scuffle, brought other
guards to his assistance, and Gui
teau was disarmed.
