In order to swell the lisi, some of the purposes for 1 - mention which it is used, that are knnivi to every 1 one : oeoie 1 enter into tue uei.in or pie- paring a dish, vhicli I cjocsider the best, hetlihiest, and most -palatable food we have, I w i 1 1 beifin before the seeu is. perfectly lorrm u ; 11 can; men 1 1 .1 be made, if properly done, a!

I he Hour or meal'df the erain is tiie mint wholesome we use; 1 ued only mention a few of the ways in wiiicti it is managed, in' ithis sltate. Kr i sn uld never have dne were i jhly to give yon the receips for ma king the various Kinds of Corn bread common in this part of the country. A favorite way of making corn bread with us, is to make a batter with meal, milk, eggs, and a little siulrting, a bout the con-iiitence of that for "pound cake, which it resembles in appear ance when baited in tins commonlyj useii tor tliat purpose. In making light bread by mixing the wheat.llour and yeast with mush, we consider it adds much 10 tiie sweetness and whole someuess of the bread : we' likewise in all griddle cakes mix meal with wiieat llour as tending to m'ake them lighter, with fewer eggs tlian they would laite with wheat dour1 alone in short we use coin meal on all oc casions either witii or witliuut wheat lKur not because we have not i3our sufficient, but because we prefer meal. L can assure my fair countrywomen they need not apply to qu ac ts or per4 fumers, or (I forget what they calf them) I mean those foreigners vyh'o vend poisons, under the pre tence! of rendering those that use tirm more beautiful; and recommend t lem, cause a few, wornout old wonen have made out, by atttmdiag to nothinj else but the application o" various arts to hid.e their deformity f r a short ;time, who hav ing no beauty o endan ger, cannot fear the consequences..!

V " I come now to the preparation, rjf the grain, "wliich- I believe is not as iienerally known as it ouht to be. considering its excellence. It i what we call lyed homnony; we likewise have the larie horn 11 nV and small hommony, both of -which aie coni mon, are fine dishes and superior . iy rice when properly manaued ; but thje lyd hommony is preferred by every one who is accustomed to it, as bein; more wholestme and -more palatably It is prepared by boiling the white field corn in ashes and water, until tlvt; husk or: skin of the ram is loosened, which will be the case in a few mlu utes, and it is necessary to pay . altert- tion that it does not remain too lonif. in the ashes, as it will by that means taste of the lye so soon as tli-b husli is loosened, must be washed and nibbed throuiih the hands in cold wa ter until the giain is cleansed from the ashes and skin, it may then be dri .'d to make use of at any tune, or boiled immediately if wanted. hen ready to bec.'f)ked for the table, it must be Ncalded and put over to boil in plenty of .water, obsecviiip: always to keep' sufficient hot water ready to add to iti as the fiist bojls away. -The grani bursts open into a wlfite ball and oe j comes soft when stiffiriently f done.- This is the manner ."we boil it fo eat with milk or cream, either warm or; : cold. It is also used in this country bv the Indians and Creole boatmen,; w ho prefer if to ! any thing else iii a. ' soup, by putting the corn over with a piece of beef or pork, leaving the water in t, which makes the soup in the other case the rain is taken out of the: water. A yaukee acqu iintance of mine wdio knw nornim of hommonv. has become so fond of this dish as to declare lyed hommony and milk to be, preferable to the best'sweet meats and cream that can be had. and 1 doubt not some m ore there are who would;' think tiie same, were tiiey equally to! make the trial. I have been induced to write the preceding. A Missouri Farmer's Wife. INI I S C E L L A E O US BOW STREET, LONDON. Sinmilar Attachment A German mechanic, having laid information at this office, that-a countryman of his, named Schuil, residing at No. 23, C?reen-street, Leicester square, was k;ept in a state of durance in his own house, by an English woman, who, he verily believed, had a design both upon his life and property, the Magis trate, G. R. Minshull, Esq sent some officers to bring the paities before him. They accordingly proceeded totlie house, but the lar.y pe'rempto ri!y refused them admission jJ and it was several hours before they were able to effect an entrance-' :.-IIavinor done so at length however, they brot the parties to the office in a hackney caach, fori the lady was too magnifi cent to walk, and the poor old (ier man was so affiicted with paralysis that he was carried into the public room before the Magistrate, on the back of one of his countrymen. He was indeed a miserable objecthis limbs utterly useless his eyes dull and unnaturally protruding his beard unshaved- his hair matted with feathers and Hisj whole person dis gustingly filthy, i The lady, on the contrary was a fine bouncing woman, of rather handsome countenance ,'gai ly dressed in a fashionable bonnet and plume, and her tat white fingers cov ered with glittering rings. Neverthe-, less, she boldly professed that she laved the poor emacited, dtrty, para lytic old man ; and she affirmed,; that all' her attentions to hmi were purely disinterested. He was exactly in 'the same state, she said, when she first be came acquainted' with him, five years ago -not worth a single sixpence, t-, ver head and ears "in debt, half crazy , of.filthy habits, lame, old and impo tent and yet she lore d, him- loved him for himself alone. 6 Oh ! who doth knowi the bent of woman's fan tasy ?
