The Weather. Veare once more favored with agreeable weather. The lilacs are putting on robes of the sweetest most delicate green ; dame Nature, too, has cleaned up house, and now her new carpets are seen. Earth, water, and air, arc glorious 1 In the light of these flashing rays, oh who can withstand the enchantment of these bright, sunny, .June like days ? Cleanliness. It is quite necessary that yards aud streets should be thoroughly cleansed of all filth and garbage, and everything put in excellent saniiary condition. We do not apprehend an attack of cholera the coming summer, and yet reasonable precautions should be taken. Cleanliness is tbc virtue placed next to godliness, and every good citizen should assume the duty of seeing that his own premises are clean and nent.

If violators of the law knew how much they disturb the equanimity of Reporters, there would, perhaps, bo less cause for shame and disgrace than appears on tho daily records of the courts, and in the daily editions of the newspapers. May bo, they agree with the sarcastic poet, and tako the literal sense of the quotation— “Ti« pleasant, sure, to .>oe one’* name in print.’’ If so, with a strange incongruity of conduct, they so demean themselves ns to allow us to doubt tho fact. At almost every sitting of the Recorder’s Court, after the thunders of the law have been hurled at the offender, we are bored by the modest parties with the modest request to keop names out of tho paper. lu some instances,, where the offense committed was not of an aggravated n iturc, or where there were circumstances of mitigation, we have complied with the request; but in the majority of cases, where law has been openly violated, the public have a right to know who are the disturbers of the peace—and, through these columns they shall know. True us I'rcncUiuj;. The times are out of joint. There are too many drones in this und other commu nities who seek by all means to escape the primeval law of L ibor laid upon mankind when Adam and Eve were banished from Edeu. Is there a really useful man in the commu nity who does not work? Is there a single elegant, ornamental idler in the city who had not better have his neck broken than continue on in his present course ? The men who built up this beautiful city arc oui good, honest, hard and continuous workers—men whose hands have not been less act ive than their brains—men who always have some thing to <lo, and do it. Idleness is fatal. Industry is genial and life-giving. There are two paths : one leads to ruin, and we may be carried along without effort ; the other leads to the highest success and happiness in any vocation, but we must walk, not ride—we must work our wav. * ♦ ♦. lli«cutt« .viatic Without flitk. Hub a piece of butter or lard the size of an egg into a quart of flour ; be sure to do this till there are no little lumps, then add a teaspoonful of salt : this being stirred in, scatter in two heaping teaspoousful of cream of tartar. Have ready a pint of cold water, in which a heaping tenspoouful of soda has been well dissolved, pour it in the flour, stirring it quickly with the hand. Do this several minutes, that all may be well mixed ; then add enough flour to enable you to mould it smooth. Roll it out the thickness of tea biscuits. If they arc made right, they are as light ns foam ami deli cious. Put them in a very moderately warm oven, and give them a few minutes to rise, then bake as other biscuits. ♦• ♦ Timely Hint. The trees transplanted this Spring should bo mulched as soon as the ground becomes dry. For ibis purpose grass is as good as anything. Don’t put around the tree too much at a time, and repeat the mulch when it gets dry and thin. Remove it once or twice during t iio Summer, and stir up the ground well, then replace it. It will save many a. tree, if the season should lie hot and dry, which we think this season will be. Tile Law ISegister.

Where is Voiu Hoy, at Niglit » The practice of allowing boys to spend their evenings in the. streets, is one of the most ruinous, dangerous, and mischievous things possible. Nothing so speedily and surely marks their course downward. They acquire, under the cover of night, an unhealthy state of mind. Vulgar and profane language, obscene practices, criminal senli' meats, and a lawless riotous bearing. Indeed, it is in the streets, after nightfall, that boys generally acquire the education and the capacity for becoming rowdy, dissolute men. Parents, do you believe it ? Will you keep your children home of nights, and see that their home is made pleasant and profitable? T(unity I‘icluit-n. The story has leaked out, that a couple of Conservative editors—one of them claim ing to be an amateur in painting as well ns poetry —at a recent sale of pictures ( obstinately disputed the possession of a fine one, by a celebrated Dutch painter, which represented an Ass. Each bid against the other. At last one of the gentlemen said “It is of no use —1 will not yield. The picture once belonged to my uncle, and 1 will give anything for it.” “In that case,” said his adversary, “I will not go on. You shall have it, as it is a family picture.” A Hirsute Kef Icclinn. We admit at the outset, ladies, that q may be none of our business —and yet we venture to predict that the present growing generation will arrive at lorty, fair, possibly, fat, perhaps, hut positively bahl. The frizzing, crimping, and curling process going on so vigorously uproots the hair, deadens its vitality, anil is becoming to none; yet most of the gentler sex, despite common sense, are playing the game of "follow my leader.” A query suggests itself to an inquiring mind, “Where arose this furore for kinky hair?” A faint, voice in the shadowy dark future whispers: “To ibis ciiiiixiun thou must cnm«.” Resistance to JjiiMmU’ti decrees is prepos terous ; hut, while blindly obeying, do not the dear creatures confess to many a secret B igh, not only at self-inflicted martyrdom, but at the disfigurement of so many pretty faces in Ibc arrangement of hair, the din closures of so many ugly cars, and the hack of the neck, so rarely perfect ? They ought to, if they don't. The Triple Dhow. The grand combination of Colonel Ames —l'ircu*, Menagerie, und Aviary—comes highly recommended from all tho cities in which the tout has been pitched. It is said to bo far ahead of any show extant. Golden opinions have been showered by tho press and public upon Muster Watson the pride of the arena ; Master Frank, only six years of age, the child equestrian ; Ella Eugenie, the beautiful and accomplished Lion Queen; Messrs. Winnie and Carr, the celebrated European acrobats and gymnasts, recently of the American Circus at the Paris Expo sition, together with a host of other popular performers, all stars in their respective lines, who challenge competition, and elicit the admiration of all beholders. The grand street display will como off at 10 o’clock to-morrow, when may be soen tho Royal Tiger and Mexican Lions, upon their mammoth dons, loose and untramelled, save by the eagle eyes of Ella Eugenie and the intrepid Herr Lengel. Ah Important Der ision, Judgo Blatohford, of Now York, has made a decision, in the case of Van Campen, President of tho First National Bank of Elmira, which officers will do well to heed. Van Cnmpen was arrested under the 55th section of the National Banking act, charged with having embezzled tho funds of the hank and made false entries in its books. He was brought before a United States Commissioner, who held him for trial, aud ho thereupon brought the matter before the Court, claiming that there was no evidence of his having committed the offense, because, in tho first place, he made no false entries, but directed a clerk in the bank to make them ; and secondly, because his indebted ness to tho bank was only an over draft, and was not punishable as an embezzlement of funds. The Judge holds that if he directed the false entries to be made, it is just the same as if he made them himself. t’o-Opornlion. The system of corporation in trade has been tried on a limited scale, some times with good results, hut often with a failure. The failures we do not believe to inhere in the principle, but the difficulty is in the management. There are several notable co operative associations in England ; their success has been such «s to render it. a question worth general attention, and we are pleased to know that there are those in this country seeking to practically test the sys tem, and, if possible, put it into operation. There are various trades now conducted on the cooperative principle, and we see that some of the people over the Massachu setts line, in Bristol county, are trying it in the matter of farming. The experiment is on trial in the town ol Easton, and one in terested in the project, Mr. L. Smith, writes to the Now York Farmers’ Club about the “Planting Company" that has been formed, as follows: We hire land and teams, buy manure, and employ faithful men to work the crops. The rent ami outlays for each acre of land are divided into fitly shares, at one dollar or more per share. Each subscriber takes a sufficient number of shares to make up his family supplies of corn, small grain, and vegetables for one year. When the several crops have matured, the merchantable pro ductinns an divided into fifty parts and de livered to the stockholders; all straw and unsound productions are sold for cash, which is also divided. This simple method ot doing business gives every one the privilege of becoming his own farmer to the amount of his investment, and the widow with her scanty income can neither obtain her sup plies at cost. Our market is made before the crops are planted. This plan gives em ployment to many that would otherwise he lounging about or getting into mischief. It will tend to reduce our over stock of store keepers and speculators, and will open the way to other cooperative movements in pro ducing milk, butter, cheese, meat, sugar, wool, flax, and eventually all other produc tions that make up the wants of human iite.
