Take young, tender peas, ami put into n
stewpan with suflieient fresh butter to keep
them from burning, but no water ; season
them with a little black pepper and a very
littlo salt; set them over a moderate lire,
and stir them about till the butter is well
through them ; thou let them simmer till
quite soli and .lightly broken, taking off the
lid occasionally, mid give them a stir up
from the bottom; if you find them becom
ing too dry, add some more butter; wh'-ii
done, drain off what superfluous butter may
be about the peas, nud send them to table
hot. They will he found excellent To the
taste of many persons they w ill be improved
by a lump or two of loaf sugar put in with
the butter, and also by n few sprigs of mint,
to be removed before the peas go to table.

A windy young man, who made un in
bras* what he lacked in gold, bought a large
stock of groceries “on time,” and transport- !
ed them to a ueighhoniig city. He lived
fast, eating princely diuuers, driving rapid
horses, aud wearing the tie at elegant stores
clothes every day. Finally, he tailed. He
pro|Mjsed, however, to compromise with lu
chief creditor by paying him tweuty-tive
cents on the dollar. The creditor, satisfied
that the young man was a very indifferent
egg, consented, and came ou lroui Aew k ork
to receive the money.
“ Os course, you’ll take the goods—you
know I have nomouey,” said the young man.
“ How’s that'?” said the slightly ustou
ished creditor.
“ Why, the groceries I have left here —
those you sold me, you remember !”
The creditor did remember, and actually
took buck his own goods “at twenty-live
cents on the dollar.” This is a fact.
An attorney in Minnesota, who had re
ceived from another Slate an account to re
cover, after acknowledging the receipt of
llie letter of instruction, replied as follows:
“ Now, 1 am perfectly astonished at you
for sending a claim out here fur recovery iti
these times. You might us well east

pool to catch pickled trout, us to try to col
loot money here. Money ! I have a faint
recollection of having seen it when 1 was a
