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. ' Tlic Clinnipioii Plaiter— We invite especial attention to the advertisement of this unique little instrument for plaiting linens etc* 1ls wonderful simplicity, cheapness, and the regularity with which it does its work, make it just the thing that every lady in the land should have without delay. Having seen it work we are prepared to recommend it in. thejhighest terms. < Col- Bonner and liis. Pads.—Our irre pressible Robert Bonner is stilt working miracles with his pads. He is now in New York City, making arrangements for larger supplies than ever, and has just sent a fresh lot to his son Hamilton in this city, who will fill all orders. 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 A Little Fun. A thorn in the bush is worth two in the hand. The evening song of the nightingale is nice, but the morning lay of the barn-door fowl is nicer. A heated lover wrote a letter to his inamorata, beginning ‘Sweatest.’ She will be a sister to him—nothing more. Always be careful about mistaking a sleeping poodle-dog for a door-mat. A New Jersey man made the mistake th6 other day and has’nt got over it yet. An old lady from the South said she never could imagine where all the Smiths came from until she saw in a New England town a large sign: ‘Smith Manufacturing Company.’ The melancholy days have come, The saddest ol the year; When he who seeks to kill a fly Slaps himself upon the ear. It is better not to ask too many questions about the future. A curious husband asked his wife, “My dear, what kind of a stone do you think they will give when I am gone ? She an swered: ‘Brimstone, John.’ The Boston Post says: ‘I wished I owned a yacht, and my name was Benny B., then I’d sail the seas over the sights for to see; I’d take Mrs. Jenks as a cook, she’s the banner, for she cook ed the returns way down in Louisiana.’ When an Indian gets hold of a silver dollar he pounds it out flat till it gets as large around as the bottom of a tin dipper. Then he sus- penes it from his neck ky a string and feels ‘heap big rich.’—N. Y. Tribune. A small boy and a gun are harmless when apart, but they make a terrible combination.— N. Y, Post. But when they come together they are soon blown apart—provided the gunis load ed. New Jersey Republican. The latest sentimental agony in songs is the tender ballad beginning: ‘Who will come above me sighing When the grass grows over me?l We can’t say positively who, but if the cemetery fence is in the ordinary repair it will probably be the cow. 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 hen I’—Norristown Herald. 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; What man or woman does not wish to im prove his or her personal appearance in some respect? Read the advertisement in thiB issue on ‘The Culture of Beauty.’ There is a man residing in Vermillion parish who has eleven sonB. He wants an invoice of girls sent to him. 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. Capital 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.
