LOCAL MENTION,
At Cbatauqua.—The late national Sunday
School gathering at Chatanqna N. Y. is. a cir
cumstance significant of progress and cheering
to all who love their kind. The Sunday School
is an important factor of civilization, beginning
at the time when the human material is pli
ant and easily moulded. And the assembly at
Cbatauqua was an immense cosmopolitan gath
ering, a representive convention of the Sunday
SchoolB of the land without regard to prejudice
as to section or denominations, showing a relig
ious tolerance which is progressive and encour
aging. Among the speakers on the occasion were
Rev. Joseph Cook and bis Excellency our good
Governer Colquit, whose address on the occa
sion was imbued with his own spirit of simplic
ity modesty and broad love for humanity. An
other important Sunday School movement is
the united Convention of State Sabbath Schools
now progressing at Lagrange, Ga. Some import
ant resolutions have been adopted by this body,
among which is the following presented by Mr.
W.Whidby, Superintendent of State Sabbath
Schools.
•Resolved that, we earnestly recommend the
parents of this State to use the utmost diligence
to prevent their children reading the pernicious
literature of tne Er st which with attractive head
ings and taking illustrations, fascinates while it
poisons and perverts their young minds, and
also the equally pernicious daily newspaper
filled with lascivious and obscene articles tend
ing to debauch the minds and morals of the
young. Resolved that we deem it essential to
sound mental and moral growth that the minds
of our children be kept as pure as possible.
Resolved that all such publications should be
discontinued by the Christian and lover of
sound morals.’ *
‘Ye Old Folks Concert/— How did
Prof. Beardslee get up so good a concert as he
gave us Thursday evening with so little prepa
ration ? He came here a few days ago a stranger
armed only with excellent letters of recommen
dation and within a week heorganized a company
for one of his unique ‘Old Polks concerts’ out of
the musical talent of the city, trained his corps
and delighted a critical audience at De Gives
with his choruses, parte songs and his imitation
of an old fashioned singing school. The pow
dered hair and queer costumes and actions of
his class of twenty-six male and female ‘pupils,’
the Professor’s perfect make up as the singing
master with blue velvet coat, wig, cue and baton,
the quaint looks of the propriety-keeper who
shook her coal-scuttle bonnet or her turkey
wing fan at all surreptitious love-making, while
she dispensed snuff and dough-nuts to all whose
behavior pleased her—this was quite pleasant
and mirth-provoking. The choruses were ren
dered with an art and harmony that gave no
hint of brief training, the quartette and duett
songs were well sung and spiritedly acted while
the sojos given by three different young ladies,
were especially fine. Prof. Beardslee’s own
singing was of course a chief feature of the en
tertainment. He has a rich round voice well
cultivated and under good control. He is said
to have in perfection the happy art of instruct
ing, and will prove quite an acquisition to An
drew College as vocal teacher. There is a desire
on the part of our City people to have ‘Ye Old
Polk’s Concert’ repeated. '

DOMESTIC * AFFAIRS.
A Breakfast Dise.—I know there is a cru
sade against the frying pan just now (inaugura
ted by Horace Greely wasn’t it ?) yet some things
fried rightly are very nice and wholesome,
among them are peaches. We have fried peaches
as a breakfast dish. Here is the receipt: Take
free stone peaches, not too soft, cut them in
halves, and put them cup down in a skillet of
very hot butter or lard. When the edges are
nicely brown, turn up and fill the cups with
white sugar and cook till thoroughly done.
Etta.
A Nice Wat to Cooe Sweet Potatoes.—The
sweet potato crop is coming on now (we up here
on Hard Scrabble Ridge will make hardly five
bushels to the acre because of no rain) and I
must tell you a nice way to cook them.
Select large potatoes and put them on to boil
or steam. When they are nearly done, take
them out and peel them; slice them not quite
half an inch thick. Put in a baking pan with a
very little water. Sprinkle white sugar thickly
over them, and spread each slice with butter.
Set them in the stove to brown. G.
Sponge Cake Role,— Delicious. — 3 eggs, 1
cup of flour, 1 cupot sugar,^ cup of buttermilk
I teaspoon of cream tartar, 1 of soda. Beat the
three eggs separately till very light,add one cup
of sugar, beat well. Sift one teaspoon of cream
of tartar into the cup of flour. Dissolve one
teaspoon of soda in £ cup of buttermilk. Add
alternately the flour and milk to the batter of
eggs and sugar. Bake as you would a jelly cake.
II you desire a roll, bake in your bisbuit pan.
Spread your jelly or jam on it while hot, topre
vent breaking; then roll. Bake quickly. Eat
With wine sauce.—H. C.
In a new book called the ‘China Hunters’Club,’
and which tells about pottery collecting mostly,
but touches a great many subjects incidentally,
we find some amusing letters from Daisy Farm,
and in one of them a description ot the first time
‘Aunt Thusy, acquired a taste for cherry short
cake. Aunt Thusy tells the story herself:
“Miry Jane, she was a settin’ the table, an’
pooty soon she fetched in a big dish of suthin,
all light an' white an’ riz up, an’ says I, ‘What's
that, Miry Jane?’ an’ says she, 'One o’ mar’s
cherry short-cakes,’ says she. ‘Well,’ says I,
‘that’s suthin’ new to me, though I s'pose I’ve
made as many strawb’ry short-cakes as the nex’
man.’ An’ Mrs. Good’n,’ she says, ‘Ye don’t tell
me so.’ Says she, ‘Why over to Gosh’n we don’t
know its summer till we’ve had our cherry short
cake. Now set up, ‘Thusy,’ says she, ‘an’ see’f
ye like it.’ An’ she would’nt hear to my not
stayin’, so I sot up, an’ if I was helped once I
was helped I dr.nno /iciwoflen. I jist stuffed; an’
ye better b'lieve I was sick that night, sick with
colleiy-morbtrs, till Seth, he thought every m in
nit would be my last. An’ I sent over an’ get
the receipt nex’ day, an’ I hain’t missed ary sum
mer sence. O massy sakes, how it did stir me
up that night! Do take another plateful, Miss
Ethelburty, Ye don’t eat no mor’n a chippin’
bird.’
We should like to know bow cherry short-cake
is made, though it seems to have treated ‘Aunt
Thusy’ rather badly. That was her own fault,
however. Greedyness in herself and not un
whole semen ess in the short-cake seeming to be
the cause of her ‘collerv-morbers. ’ Cherry short
cake is made pretty much after the receipt for
strawberry ditto, wefaney, and strawberry short
cake is very nice, but doeB not equal the plain
strawberries and cream. a

The evening song of the nightingale is nice,
but the morning lay of the barn-door fowl is
nicer.

The melancholy days have come,
The saddest ol the year;
When he who seeks to kill a fly

It is better not to ask too many questions
about the future. A curious husband asked his

The Detroit Free Press is informed that kiss
ing the baby may result in deforming its nose
and bringing on near-sightedness, The safest
plan is, not to kiss a baby of the feminine per
suasion until it attains the age of sixteen years.
The cartilage of the nose is much stronger then;
and, besides, the kisses taste better—we’ve been
told.—Herald and Presbyter,
When the terrible Gen. Banks, hoeing in his
garden, strikes his implement into a blood-red
beet, he ories: ‘Ha, Rebel! Traitor ! I have thee
now !’ Then be smites the miserable vegetable,
and over its bleeding corse he recites a passage
from his latest speech.—N. Y. Sun.
He got up one morning feeling heavy at heart,
without knowing the cause. He went to the
back door and there saw his garden, the pride of
his waking hours and the subject of his dreams,
looking like an editor’s office. He sat down on
the doorstep and said: 'Of all sad words.of
tongue or pen, the saddest are these: I keep a

A young man who was recently rejected by
his girl, immediately lost his appetite and be
gan to pine away. His friends thought he would
soon be laid away in the silent tomb, but last
week he went to Atlantic City, and saw the ob
ject of his affections—or what whs left of her—
in a baggy flannel suit and an old straw hat,
bathing in the surf. That young man now eats
three hearty meals per day, and a big lunch be
tween times.—Hawkeye.
7 The Cause of It.
‘Henry’ writes to learn why it is that one end
of a moustache curls more easily than the other.
He says that the right side of his naturally
curls upward,:- while the opposite end as natur
ally lops downward. This is not a natural func
tion of the moustache. It is in the training. If
the owner of the moustache is unmarried the
curl of the moustache indicates on whioh side of
a young lady he most frequently sits. For in
stance, if on her right side, the left hand and
arm, having an office of their own to fill, the
hand of the right arm is left free to toy with that
side of the moustache, and curling up the end
is its favorite pastime. This is reversed if her
left side is preferable to him. As a general thing
it will be found that young men’s moustaches
curl best cn the right side. If the wearer is
married the curl indicates on which side of the
church is his pew. If on the right cf the church
the curl will be on the left of the moustache, as
this position throws his left elbow on the back
of the seat, thus bringing the left hand to his
face, where the fingers naturally fall to.work at
once: The reverse occurs if the pew is on the
opposite side. Henry can rely on this informa
tion, as it is the result of years of careful study
and research in moustache statistics.—Danbury
News.
The Men.
Tlie Broken Heart.
Sad, is it not, when a deserted woman hears
the sound of bells that ring out another’s happi
ness ?
‘The merry wedding bells,
Golden bells!
What a tale of merriment
Their melody foretells!’
To some, yes ; to others, nothing of the kind.
Fancy what Canon Duckworth must have felt
when the bells of Windsor chimed melodiously
as the Marquis of Lome bore to the chapel the
sweet woman who loved the clergyman! She
stood where royalty forbade him to go, and
where even the Campbell had hard work to
climb. Fancy the sore heart of a woman who
sees the man she loves marry another, and a
kindred soul may in some sort realize all that
is meant in the cb arming poen of
MARRIAGE BELLS.
Tne dying sunlight cast its rays across the golden
west.
And all the branches of the trees In autumn,s garb
were dressed,
as entered in the stylish church a man and maid
en fair—
The while the happy marriage bells were ringing
on the air.
Within a corner, dark and still, scarce hidden from
the sight,
A woman crouched, with frenzied eyes, and brow
of ashen white;
No one beheld her pallid face and long disheveled
hair,
The while the happy marriage bells were ringing
on the air.
The,ageu, gray-haired man ofGod the solemn ser
vice read,
By which two souls were joined for aye by Hy
men's silken thread;
And no one dreamed a human heart was bursting
with despair,
The while the happy marriage bells were ringing
on the air.
Across the bridegroom’s handsome face no shade
of sorrow fell
For her whose t rusting heart had loved ‘not wise
ly but too well;’
The distant days were all forgot, when he bad
thought her fair,
The while the happy marriage bells were ringing
on the air.
At last' twas over ! And the train moved slowly
out of sight,
As fell around the stately church the mellow
shades of night;
But little thought the stylish throng that one still
lingered there
Who'd never more hear marriage bells a-ringing
on the air. —chAs. w. pilgrim;

There iB a popular game among young peo
pie called the dumb orator, in which one talks
while another gesticulates. We are having
this lively game carried on by third-termers,
Russell Young or Badeau does the talking,
while Grant goes through the motions.
Senator Thurman, in his late speech from the
stump in Ohio, makes up the one issue of the
political arena, as between greenbacks and na
tional banks. After catching the wild beast,
we hardly think the people will be content to
pull a few hairs from his tail and then let him
loose again.
The announcement of the marriage of Prince
Louis Napoleon to Princess Thyra, third daugh
ter of Christian IX, Eiri^ of Denmark, has been
formally made by the Paris Constitutionnel,
Bonapartist organ, and as formally contradic
ted by the London Post.
Mr. Moncure D. Conway offers, by authority
ef a London lady, $5,000 toward the formation
ofa fund to provide some means of collegiate
education for women at Oxford, subject to the
condition that an equal sum is subscribed
wiihin the next few months. A committee of
influential persons has been formed at Oxford to
procure thb money.
Lord Beaconsfield, Laving received investi
ture as Knight of the Garter, prefers, according
to the London Spectator, to remain Earl of Bea
consfield, instead of taking any higher title of
nobility. The garter itself associates him with
some fifty of the most distinguished personages
in Europe, nearly half of them being royal, and
the other half British* nobles of the highest
rank.
General Grant, after visiting Anstria, will go
to some watering-place and await the arrival of
a friend from Philadelphia, whose wishes will
decide his movements for four or five weeks
His present intention is to prolong his stay
until next May or June, completing, in the
meantime, a tour of the world, spending the
winter months in India and China, and return
ing by way of San Francisco.
A minister’s life has frequent disappoint
ments. During the great revival a stolid, mat
ter-of-fact farmer went into the inquiry-room,
and was at once taken in hand by anxious and
zealous workers. He seemed to be visibly
aflected by the hymn that was sung, and after
the prayer one or two tears were apparently dis
covered. When asked: ‘Brother, do you leel
any change ?’ he made a rapid and instinctive
movement of his hand in the direction of his
vest pocket, and then settling back in his chair
with a sigh, replied: ‘Not a cent; that’s just
what I’m after.’
Key to Play Second Fiddle tc Grant.—The
Post pc blishes a statement that Assistant Post
master General Tyner, in conversation with
some personal friends on his recent trip to Eu
rope, ‘remarked that he had conversed with
several leaders of the Grant movement, and
that they are indeed earnest in pushing General
Grant for the Presidency. He said that the
second place on the ticket had embarrassed the
Grant managers a good deal until the name of
General Key was suggested,_ when it was adop
ted at once.’
The silence that was golden with Grant left
him bankrupt when he began to talk. Nothing
did more to solidify the South than that silly
speech touching his confidence when Lee was
in his front. As he lost more men killed than
Lee had in command, his claimed indifference
can be attributed either to his stolid indiffer
ence or stupidity. A nd while the South resents
hisstab at the body fcjts dead hero, tbe house
holds he made deetdate at tbe North will re
buke his brutality.
Badeau and our John Russell Young
Have found for General Grant a tongue,
Only to prove the maxim olden,
That talk js silver, silence golden.

DOMESTIC SCIENCE.
Utilizino Smoke.—A new and valuable pro
cess has been devised for utilizing the smoke
which rises from lead-smelting furnaces. The
smoke passes through au almost endless line of
pipes cf sheet-iron and woolen bags, which con
denses it into matallic lead in the same way that
steam is condensed into water. The product
is bluish, impalpable powder, which makes a
fine blue paint. This bine powder passes through
still other furnaces, and subjected to great heat,
comes out pure white lead.
Children and the Open Air.—It is a onrious
physioligical fact that, although open-air life is
so favorable to health, yet it has the apparent
effect of stunting growth in early youth. L9t
two children bebrenght up together, one made
to ‘rough it’ out-of-doors and the other careful
ly tended and kept within; other things being
equal, the boy of the drawing-room will be tall
er, and to all appearance, more developed than
his companion. The laborer's children, for in
stance, who play in the lonely country roads and
fields all day. whose parents lock their cottage
doors when leaving for work in the morning, so
that their off-spring shall not gain entrance and
get into mischief, are almost invariabfy short
for their age. The children of working farmers
exhibit the same peculiarity. After sixteen or
eighteen, after years of hesitation, as it were,
the ladJ suddenly shoot up and became great,
hulking, broad fellows, possessed of immense
strength. Hence it would seem that indoor life
forces growth at the wrong period, and so in
jures.
Pitting in Small-Pox.—Mr. Gregory, of Mer
chant’s College, Blackpool,' believes that ‘pit
ting,’ the sad and perm&nant result of small-pox,
ought rarely to be seen in any civilized commu
nity. He starts with these facts; that poor peo
ple are pitted least, higher class people are pit
ted most, and no class of people are pitted un
der their dress. Poor people have less light in
their homes, the higher class plenty of light,
and under the dress there is less light than in
either case. The explanation is a scientific one.
The sunlight consists of three primary colors.
The red, the blue, and tne yellow rays -have
distinct and characteristic properties. The yel
low rays give us light, the red give us heat,and
the blue actinism. It is the actinic influence
of the blue rays which, in Mr. Gregory’s theo
ry, causes ‘pitting.’ No seed will germinate
and young plants will soon die, if thd chemical
ly active rays, that is, the actinic rays, are fil
tered from the sunlight. A yellow blind drawn
over a window will absorb all the actinic rays.
The pus of variolar pustuius absorbs,by its yel
low medium, the actinic rays, which results in
corrosion of the tender flesh at the base, and
thus leaves the dreaded permanent ‘pitting.’
Some men work themselves to death; some
men think themselves to death. Too little rest
for the body, too little sleep for the brain, are
false economies of time, and multitndes unwit
tingly bring on wasting and fatal diseases by
practising these economies. Sleep a plenty,
rest a plenty; these are the foundations of all
great, safe and efficient activities of body and
brain. We once heard a man say that no time
should be lost, that a book should always be at
hand, so that in waiting for dinner or a friend
we might read, if it were but a line. He prac
ticed this. His was accounted as one of the
great minds of the nation; his writings will live
when the names of presidents will be repeated
once in an age. He lost his mind and died in
his prime.
Thrilling Scene.
A cross-eyed man in a long linen ulster and
a tall hat rang the bell, and when the woman of
the house opened the door, she was satisfied he
had an eye to the spoons (the straight eye) so
she snapped:
‘Well, what do you want ?’
‘Madame, be calm,’ said the cross-eyed man,
in a smooth voice.
‘What for ?’ she queried, suspioiously.
‘Madame,’ said the cross-eyed man, ‘have you
a child?’ •
•Yes, I have,’ replied the woman; ‘what of it ?
‘A little girl ?’ queried the cross-eyed man.
‘No, a boy,’ returned the woman.
‘Of course, a boy,’ repeated the cross-eyed man;
‘a young boy—not very old ?’
‘About that age,’ said thefwoman; ‘what about
him?’
‘Madam,do not get excited,’ pursued the cross
eyed man; ‘be brave and calm.’
‘Mercy cn me!’ exclaimed the woman, in sur
prise; ‘what’s the matter?’
‘Gently, gently,’ said the cross-eyed man, in
a ooothing manner; ‘restrain yourself. Did not
let that little boy go out to play this morning ?’
‘Yes, yes,’ said the woman, excitedly; ‘what—
why—is there any thing the matter?’
‘Is there not a railroad track crossing the next
street?’ queried the cross-eyed man, in a sol
emn voice.
•Yes, oh yes,’ ejeculated the woman, in great
fear; ‘oh, tell me what has happened, what—’
‘Be calm,’ interrupted the cross-eyed man,
soothingly; ‘be brave—keep cool,for.your child’s
sake.’
‘Oh, what is it, what is it?’ wailed the woman
wildly;‘I knew it—I feared it. Tell me the
worst, quick! Is my child—where is my dar
ling boy?’
‘Madam,’ replied the cross-eyed man, gently,
‘I but this moment saw a little boy playing up
on the railroad track; as I looked upon him he
seemed to be—’
Oh, dear! oh, dear!' screamed the woman,
wringing her hands. Tell me the worst. Is he—’
‘He seemed to be daubing himseli with oil,’
continued the cross-eyed man, qniokly.drawing
a bottle from his pocket, ‘and I’ve got here the
best thing in the world—Lightning Grease Era
dicate—only twenty-five cents a bottle, war
ranted—’
There was a broom standing behind tbe door,
and with one blow she knocked his tall hat over
his eyes and with another waved him off the
steps and through the gate. And as the cross -
eyed man moved swiftly up the street she shook
the broom at him, looking for all the world like
an ancient goddess of mythology with a passion-
distorted face and highly-excited red arms.

(a) K B is the correct move. We like the text for the
many ’scapes attending its adoption.
(b) A novelty that should lead to early defeat; P Q 4 is
best.
(c) Premature; P Q 3, or Kt Q B 3, gives an onduring
attack.
(d) Too hasty; he should develop his Q’s flank.
(e) The game was continued many more moves, and
eventually terminated a draw.
