Iron in Plants.-—So far as investiga
tions have shown, iron forms no essen
tial part of the plant or animal, jet
without it all growth and assimilation
cease. If seeds are placed on a little
cotton wool in a solution containing all
tliat is essential to plant growth, with
the exception of iron, they will sprout
and grow until the iron contained in the
seed itself is exhausted ; the plant
then quickly bleaches and ceases to
grow. If a little phosphate of iron,
which is almost totally insoluble, is
added to the solution, and occasionally
stirred up so that it may be v ept in sus
pension and thus come in contact with
the root, th* plant quickly revives and
continues its growth. Iron is an essen
tial constituent of chlorophyl, the green
coloring matter of leaves. Al*hough
found iu all plants, aud constituting an
essential part of their food, it has never
been thought, necessary to supply it to
them artificially, all soils being sup
posed to coutam sufficient for their
wants. But no one can have failed to
observe the greater luxuriance of vege
tation on the strong iron soils derived
from the old red sand stone than on
those granite soils which are compara
tively free from it. —Journal of Chem

Preachers and Their Profession.
I have talked with a good many
preacners iu my day, who have told me
they were not sure they had made the
best use which could bo made of their
life in enteriug the pulpit, aud might
be glad to get out of it if they had any
idea how they could make a living at
something else at their time of life.
But they iiave got into a rut, and, like
the mau that makes the head of a pin
until he is 35 or 10, they have no apti
tude for making anything but sermons.
This what many say*l have talked with,
while I notice in those I have watched,
that ten at least go out of the pulpit
into other professions and callings and
take their chance to succeed or fail,
where one who has succeeded in the other
I roietsJMomj anu -callings gives up what
he is doing aud enters the pulpit. If
the preacher, by some piece of good for
tune, gains an independence, the
chances are that somothing will happen
then to stop his preaching. And it
would not be hard to recount more rea
sons for this dislike to their work, and
dismay at the result of it, than jyou
would have time or patien e to hear, or
could possibly hear to auy profit. Borne
reasons, of course, are very mean and
poor, and ought not to be considered
for a aomei't, while others again are
very pood, and a few entirely conclusive.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.
Plum Pn\— Either fresh fruit or the
fruit that has been canned can be used.
Tf the latter the plums should not have
been entirely ripe when bottled. In
the centre of a deep earthern pie-dish
insert a teacup, and fill the dish with
the fruit, if fresh, adding about the
quantity of sugar to make them sweet
enough, and a very small quantity of
molasses. Moisten the edge of the dish
with cold -water, and place around the
edge a narrow strip of the pie-crust,
which must not be too rich; this strip
of crust must now be moistened with
water or the white of egg to prevent
the juico escaping. Place the upper
crust on, folding it in the middle so as
to allow it to rise when the fruit ex
pands. Pick holes in it with a fork to
let out the steam. Bake about half or
three-quarters of an hour.
Chicken Pie.— Select your tender
chickens, joint them, and season with
salt and pepper, sprinkling a small
quantity over each piece, and arrange in
a deep earthern pie-dish, leaving out
the breast-bone, the back and the neck.
Cut fine a piece of butter the size of a wal
nut, and put over the pieces of chicken
enough oold water to nearly cover the
meat, and about a pint of oysters, with
out any of the liquor, allowing one pint
of oysters to two medium-sized chick
ens. A little pounded mace is a great
improvement. Make the crust not
quite so rich as for ordinary pies, and
when placing over the dish lay a fold in
the middle, that, there may be room, for
the meat and liquor in cooking. Bake
in a moderate oven about two hours.
Bhould the crust be too brown before
the meat is done, leave the oven-doors
open.
Tea Kelish.— Select a piece of beef
from the fore-quarter weighing about
twenty pounds; place it in a atone pot,
or a perfectly sweet and clean butter
firkin; over three table-spoonfuls oi'
saltpetre pour one gallon of hot water,
and when cold pour over the beef. The
weather should be cold, and in this
mixture the meat should remain forty
eight hours. At the end of two days
take out the meat, and into the pores
and crevices rub well one pint of fine
salt and one tea-cupful of molasses;
next morning turn the meat over and
rub again, turning and rubbing in salt
and molasses for six mornings. The
next day place the meat in boiling
water, and, when it commences to boil,
skim carefully, and put the vessel on
the back part of the stove, where it
will simmer, but not boil. Allow half
an hour to each pound of meat in cook
ing it; when done, remove and press
with a heavy weight. Slice, when cold,
in very thin slices. If the twenty
pounds is too large, cut in two or three
pieces, but have the proportion the
same of saltpetre, etc.
Bran Bread.— Boil one pint of milk
and thicken with Graham flour; add
cold milk enough to make a thin batter,
and when cool enough add half a tea
cupful of hop yeast, and a sma’l quan
tity of syrup molasses. Stir in Graham
flour to form a stiff batter, as stiff as
can be stirred with a spoon. When
light sprinkle a small quantity of fine
flour on a board, and work the bread
until it ceases to be sticky, being care
ful not to put on too much flour, and
get it too stiff and dry ; put it into a
round basin that will fit in to the steam
er, and when light work a very little;
put inlo the basin again aud - set it into
the steamer, having plenty of boiling
water in the vessel beneath. A me
dium-sized loaf should cook one hour,
and the lid of the steamer must not be
removed or the water cease boiling,
else the bread will be inavy. When
done remove from the steamer and put
in the oven for about twenty minutes to
give it a crust. The steaming gives
lightness and moisture to the bread,
and the finish in the oven dries the out
side and gives a crust to it.
Kaistst Cake.— Wash well one pound
of sweet butter, and cream with it one
pound of white sugar. In the winter,
when the butter is very cold, it is bet
ter, lieforo washing it, to set it near the
stove, where it will soften but not melt,
and I§e tepid water for washing it.
When the sugar and butter are well
creamed, add slowly one quart of tepid
new milk and four pounds of sifted
flour; mix well in a tea-cupful of lively
home-made yeast, and put in a warm
dace until light. This should be in four
or five hours, when mix into this batter
another pound each of butter and sugar,
well creamed together, and, if needed,
a little moie flour. Have ready two
pounds of raisins, seeded and cut fine,
and half a pound of currants. Mix a
small quantity of flour through the
fruit, and stir into the batter with a
very small portion of pulverized mace.
Let the batter lise again, stir well with
a spoon or the hands, and pour into
thin well buttered tins, putting them in
a warm place until they commence to
rise again; then set into a slack oven,
increasing the heat gradually until hot
enough, and bake about an hour and a
quarter, trying them with a broom
splinter before taking out.
Hkad-Cheese.—Select a clean, fat
aud perfect pig’s head; have it cut
through the centre of the forehead and
snout, and again under the eyes, sepa
rating the snout from the forehead; also
have the eyes, lids and surrounding
membranes, with the sac removed, go
ing close to the bone socket that the
eye may not break. Then remove the
ears, with the wrinkled skin surround
ing them, taking out the canal of the
ear, aud tiro horny portion containing
the drum, etc. After this is done the
b mes of the snout, are easily taken out.
Put the pieocs to soak iu plenty of luke
warm water, draining off and adding
fresh until the blood is removed. Binge
off the hairs and examine the fleshy
part of the snout and lower jaw, taking
off ihe skin, winch will now come away
easily with the knife ; wash again ar and
salt. Mix thoroughly together one
quart of salt aud a tablespoouful of
finely pulverized saltpeter, rubbing the
pieces of meat well with it, and, if
wished, a little sugar or molasses.
Pack the pieces closely in a crock ; let
them remain for two weeks, turning
occasionally, that the top pieces may go
into the brine that has been formed at.
the bottom. Wash all the brine off at
the end of that time, and boil gently
until tender and the meat strips off the
bone without rising a knife. After tak
ing out all the bones cut line with
knife and fork, season with black pep
per and a very small portion of mace
(pulverized sage is an improvement if
used sparingly,) put into a dish with
straight Bides packing close and press
ing with a heavy weight. Cut in thin
slices and eat With mustard and vin
egar.
—“Speaking of extravagance in
dress,” writes Capt. Crosstree, “the
most expensively dressed man I ever
saw was an African chief on the gold
coast. His wives had annointed him
thoroughly with palm oil, and then
powdered him from head to foot with
gold-dust. Yon never saw in your life
a man got up so ‘utterly regardless of
expense”
Why Potatoes Hun Out so Boon.
In nearly all of the crops that farmers
raise they aim to have the seed better
than the average of the products which
they sell; but to this rule potatoes form
an exception. They will take pains to
screeh out of the wheat, oats, or barley,
not only all foul seed, but all small,
shrunken, defective grains. They save
none but the most perfect ears of corn,
but when they come to save seed for
the potato crop they too often use for
serd those tubers that are too small to
sell. It is not surprising, that this
course, pursued year after year, should
have a tendency to run out varieties.
We copy from an exchange some re
marks by Prentiss of Steuben upon
this subject:
Someone asks why it is that potatoes
so soon run out. There are two grand
seasons. There are but few potatoes in
a hill that are fit for seed. Some are
overgrown, coarse, rank, and will not
transmit the original quality. Others
are undergrown, and not full developed
seed. A notate of medium size, per
fect in all its parts, with change of
ground, will produce its like ad infini
tum. One other reason, cutting pota
toes between stem and seed end con
tinually will demoralize the institution.
It > eqnires the stem and seed end to
make perfect seed. If cut, length
wise. Single eyes will run out any po
tato. There is 40 other seed that will
bear mutilation like the potato ; the
only wonder is that it does not run out
completely. We select the above from onp
of our exchanges for the purpose of
pointing a moral. In nothing is there
so much error taught and believed bv
ignorant persons as in regard to the cul
tnre of potatoes, if it is only considered
that the potato is not a root, nor a pota
to set. a seed, any more than a twig
above ground is a root, or a bud cut
therefrom a sped. An analogous in
stance is found in the planting a cut
ting of a vine or of a stalk of pepper
mint or a cutting of a currant or geran
ium. The bud is the germ of the fu
ture plant, and grows when planted in
the soil so that roots may bo started
from its base. A cutting or a bud, then, j
from a small potato is as likely to pro
duce a vigorous plant as a bud trans
planted from a slender twig is, and one
from a large potato no more so than
from a branch many times as large as j
the small twig.
Manure on Wheat
A correspondent of the Country Gen
tleman, in answer to a q uestion by a sub
scriber, relating to manuring wheat, tru
ly says, if the greatest benefits is to be
had from manure it must be applied af
ter the land is plowed; spread (at once)
even, and leave so till the land is sow
ed, then mix well with the harrow or
cultivutor—if the application is heavy,
use cultivator; sow immediately after
that. By leaving the spread manure on
the surface after plowing, up to the
time of sowing, th rain will wash out
tho soluble parts and soak the soil-—the
top soil with them. This is an even dis
tribution—perfectly so ; and it is the
only way, save by liquid manure, that
this can be done perfectly; in fact, it is
liquid manure, tho drenching and wash
ing out by the rains. Now, an equal
distribution is of the utmost importance,
as it enables the roots to come in contact
with the fertility; they are immersed
in it.
Tf the manure is mixed with the soil
(plowed under or worked in with the
cultivator) only that part of the soil
that c >mes in contact wih the manure
will receive its benefit, and that in ex
cess. The rest lias none, and is not ben
efited by the application. In the other
case, where the strength is washed into
the soil, and the remaining manure is
mixed with it by the harrow or cultiva
tor, the seed will at once start and grow
vigorously, and form by winter a thick
pelt, which, with the manure, is a pro
tection. The land, by this method, it
will be found, is excellent condition,
the seed bed moist and mellow. Where
it is wanted to seed down the land, noth
ing is better than such a preparation.
Bow tho seed, (grass seed, not clover)
immediately after the harrow covering
the wheat has lett the field, and brush
in at once. As to the other question of
the correspondent, we do not approve of
k eping manure long an * u*el< ssiy on
hand, the sooner the *oil gets the sol
uble parts, and the surface the rest for
protection, the better.

The Mental Atmosphere.
The probability of the existence of a
mental atmosphere is a question which '
is attracting considerable attention, and
which will in time probably throw much
light on the nature and action of men
tal phenomena. We all know that any
mental action results directly in molecu
lar change; it is perfo-med at the ex
pense of certain constituents of the
nervous system, notably phosphorous.
It transmits a definite wave of motion,
at a rate which has been accurately
measured, to the distal extremity of the
appropriate nerves; how much further,
we do not know. ? Many instances also
illustrate the high quality of mental
force. It can produce the most impor
tant changes, even ulceration or gan
grene, in tho remotest parts of the
body, and aid with equal power in pro>-
eesses of restoration and growth. That
the superficies of the body does not
bound its activity numerous facts de
monstrate. To pass bv the less remarka
ble and more familiar ones, there is the
most positive evidence that those gifted
with “second sight,” ns if was ono* 3 1
called, do possess uv undefined power of
knowledge which transcehds the senses, i
The presence of danger is often felt be
fore anv warning reaches ns through
the senses. Men nbo live lives of peril !
know this perfec+lv well, and are the
last to nnderrate such feeling. Afiofber
form of this external mental power is
that bv which a stronp emotion or a 1
fixed attention on an object will excite
a similar emotion or the picture of ;
similar object In another person without j
anv communication. A certain natural !
analogy and a special training is re
quired to bring this about. The French
“magician” Hondin has established
snch a mental relation with his Ron, so
that the latter, thongh blindfold, w. nld
at, once name an object shown to his
father, though the width of a large
room intervened. Undoubtedly, as emo
tional influences are clearly epidemic |
and contagious, there is noth ng incredi
ble in the belief that ideas should also j
possess equal powers beyond the- super
fidies of the body or the limits of ex-!
pression.— Medicat Reporter.
Sleep as a Medicine, —The cry for
rest has always been louder than the
cry for food. Not that it is more im
portant, but is often harder to obtain.
The best rest conies from sound sleep.
Of two men or tvo women, otherwise
equal, the one who sleeps the best will
he the most moffij, healthy, and effi
cient. Sleep will do much to cure irri
tability 01 temper, peevishness, uneasi
ness. It will restore vigor an over
worked brain. It will build nr> and
make strong a weary body. It will cure
a headachy It will cure the heart-ache.
It will euro a broken spirit. It will
cure sorrow. Indeed we might make a
long list of nervous and other maladies
that sleep will cure. The cure of sleep
lessness requires a clean, eood bed,
sufficient exercise to produce weariness,
pleasant occupation, go?d air, not too
warm a ro >m, a clear stomach, a oiear
conscience, and avoidance of stimulants
and narcotics. For those who are over
worked, haggard, nervous, who pass
sleepless nights, we comim ud the adop
tion of such habits as shall secure sleep';
otherwise, life will be short, and what
there is of it sadly imperfect.
Thebe is no Death —lf it be true
that nature abhors a vacuum, it is equal
ly true that the great Creator abhors
death and glories in life. There is re
ally no such thing as death, the term is
a misnomer' used to designate the chan
ges which occur in life. Life, eternal
life, is created by the laws of almighty
will-power, which are as immutable in
their application as is the existence of
thecieator himself. When God made
life, He made everything necessary to
sustain it, but left it for man’s progres
sive intelligence to discover, convert
and.utilize. Good medicine is to the
ailing physique what good fuel is to the
expiring flame ; the better the fuel, the
quicker the fire, the better the medi
cine, the quicker c mes relief from pain.

Dr. J. W alkor’s California Via
?ar Bitters are a purely Vegetable
reparation, made chiefly ffora the na
ive herbs found on the lower ranges of
le Sierra Nevada mountains of Califor
a, the medicinal propertie of which
o extracted therefrom without the use
Alcohol. The is almost
oily asked, “ What is the cause of the
nparalleled success of Vinegar Bit
ers f’ Our answer is, that they remove
ie cause of disease, and the patient ro
overs his health. They are the great
iood purifier and a lifo-givimr principle,
perfect Renovator aud luvigorator
■f the system. Never before in tho
listory of tlie world has a medicine been
possegsing tho remarkable
1 aallties of Vinegar Bittfrs in healing the
-ick of every disease man is heir to. They
ire a gentle Purgative as well as a Tonic,
eliering Congestion or Inflammation of
ho Liver and Visceral Organs, m Bilious
Jiseases.
The properties of Dr. Walker’s
Vinegar Bitters are Aperient, Diaphoretic
Carminative, Nutritious, Laxative, Diuretio
Sedative, Conn ter-Irritant, Sudorific. Altera
„ivc. and Anti-Bilious
Grateful Thousands proclaim Vin
egar Bitters the most wonderful In
surant that ever austoined the sinking
•ystem. fa
No Person can take these Bitters
iceording to (lirectioas, and remain long
hi well, provided their boues are not de
droyed by mineral poison or other
ueans, and vital organs wasted beyond
repair.
Bilious. Remittent and Inter
mittent Perers, which are so preva-
Jent in the valleys of our great*rivers
throughout the United States, especially
those of the Mississippi, Ohio, Missouri,
Illinois, Tennessee, Cumberland, Arkan
sas, Red. Colorado, Brazos, Rio Grande,
Pearl, Alabama, Mobile, Savannah, Ro
anoke, James, and many others, with
their vast tributaries, throughout our
entire country during tho Summer and
Autumn, and remarkably so during sea
sons of unusual heat and dryness, are
invariably accompanied by extensive de
rangements of the stomach and liver,
and other abdominal viscera. In their
treatment, a purgative, exerting a pow
erful influence upon these various or
gans, is essentially necessary. There
is no cathartic for the purpose equal to
Dr. J. Walker’s Vinegar Bitters,
as they will speedily remove the dark
colored viscid matter with which the
bowels are loaded, at the same time
stimulating tho secretions of the liver,
and generally restoring the healthy
functions of the digestive organs.
Fortify the body against disease
by purifying all its fluids with Vinegar
Bitters. No epidemic can take hold
of a system thus fore-armed.
Dyspepsia nr Indigestion* Head
ache, Pam in the Shoulders, Coughs,
Tightness of the Chestj Dizziness, Soiu
Eructations of the Stomach, Bad Taste
in the Mouth, Bilious Attacks, Palpita
tation of the Heart, Inflammation of the
Lungs, Pain in the region of the Kid
neys, and a hundred other painful symp
toms, are the offsprings of Dyspepsia.
One bottle will prove a better guarantee
of its merits than a lengthy advertise
ment.
