FARM. GARDEN AND HOUSEHOLD, Domestic Hints. Hints for Cooking Meats.?All moats should be put to cooking in boiling water, as then the outer part contracts and the internal juices are preserved. It is important to keep the water con stantly boiling, otherwise the meat will ab sorb it ;the more gentlymeat boils the more tender it will be. Always add boiling water if more is needed, and skim wher it first begins to boil. Allow aboul twenty minutes for boiling fresh meat, and from one half to three-quarters oi an hour for salt meat, except ham, whict will cook in mceen minutes. xn ruaair ing meat it is necessary to have a hoi oven ; to be tender it should be bastec often. Twenty minutes to a pound ii required for all m'eate, except beef, which only requires from fifteen to eight teen. In broiling or frying meats, hare the gridiron or fryingpan hot befor* putting the meat on. Allow aboui twenty minutes for all meats but beef oi ham; beefsteak will cook in about fif teen, ham in about ten minutes. To Select Fresm Fish.?The eyet should be clear, the fins stiff, the gills nrl Vio-r^ fn nrnin ftilrl Trithnntbad odor. J.V/V&) ?|?*V4 vv vjj/v*., ; - - 7 Great care should be taken to thorough ly clean the fish, removing the smallesl atom of blood, It is best to uee lard 01 drippings in frying, as butter is apt tc burn, and make the fish soft. In boiling, large fish should bo wrapped in a cloth, wound with twine and covered with mart than two inohes of -water. Salt shoulc be sprinkled in the water (four ounoe< per pound ; for a small fish six minutei is enough. The fish should be taker from the water the moment it is done Salt fish require from twenty-four ?tc thirty hours' soaking.' changing th< water several times meiiiwhile. 7 f _?r * ? * ' * * T i Drawn Butieb.?Put two tablespoon fuls of flour and a little salt in a bowl add half a pint of water, a little at i time ; work it very smooth, put it int< a saucepan, let it come slowly to a boU stirring often ; when it has boiled i minute or two, add by degrees tw< ounces of butter, stirring all the tim< until it is entirely incorporated with th< flour and water ; boil up once, and sea son for any kind of boiled fish or meat Almond Cakes-.?Rub two ounces o butter into five ounces of flour, and ftvi ounces powdered l^mp sugar,' Bea an egg -with half the sugar; th&fc put ii the other ingredients.

If an owl comes anywhere near he will be very sure to settle down ii the trap with a3 calm and as graceful ai air as an owl can put on.. This is. i trait in the owl quite peculiar to him self. He seldom pounces oii his victiir the first thing, like other birds of prey, but first comes slowly along, and settlef down Chi some conspicuous site near the victims, and takes a very calm and coo! survey of all the surroundings.

The Indian (Osage Agency) Herald says : The tradition of the first landing of Indiana in the new world has been repeated to ohosen braves over and over from one generation to another, and to this day the Osages have what is sup posed to be nearly the original language of their ancestors. They claim that their progenitors came in the ark or boat, and while in the vessel the Great Spirit came and rested upon one of their number and told him to select six others to assist him in governing the nation; hence the origin of the seven original bands of the tribe. The Spirit, while In conversation with this favorite ene, directed him to communicate whatever instructions he received for his people Mrrnnoh his chosen assistants, and to this day the name of the one npon whom the Spirit rested signifies one who talks with God. His lodge is a sanctuary for any criminal who may flee from justice or vengeance, and he ranks with the higL ~st chief in the tribe. Be fore they came in contaot with white people they lived in the enjoyment of peace and happiness, but they are now realizing that white people are as numerous as "leaves in the forest," and that they only constitute a remnant of this once powerful and warlike tribe, and are at the mercy of the white race and liable to be dnven backward step by step into ?ne waters of .the ocean. Their religion tends to given them a gloomy and melancholy cast of charac ter, and among other-things they believe I thatthe spirit of-the departed hovers in '{'.anguish around them uatil a scalp is 1 taken to accompany it to the Indicia's " last resting place,1 the great hunting ground, where the spirit of a slain enemy serves him in the most servile offices throughout eternity. For this pprpose, though much has been said and written!- about the civilization of the Qeages; they yet organize mourning parties and go upon the warpath when otherwise they are peaceable. Though at first thought it may strike the minds of our readers as almost in credible, there are Masons among Osag'es. They were probably admitted to the secrete, rites and privileges of this ancient institution-by the French in early days, they being the first whites with whom they met. They retain a part of the workmgg of the craft to this day. Colonel J. M. Hiatt, a licensed trader for the tribe at this agency, who /vrtl#mj?a"anH Iaiva ' AT jlo ca v* viuwmav perienae,.ftnd an honored meiaber of the Commandery, when alone on one occa sion with a more than ordinarily intelli gent Osage, found, upon strict trial, thongh the Indian could not speak a word of our language, that he was a Master Mason who prided himself in the mysteries of the order* r * , ... ? Theirso-called "medicine wOrk" is simply the performance of a religious ceremony in which is introduced all the ^forms _deriyed^from Masonry, tradition and other sources.

The two men were taken by a mob to a patch of woods on Saw Log creek. They were blindfolded, their arms pinioned, .and placed in the center. of a ? circle.. Then ene of the "vigilante" pulled a testamerit from one pocket and a bottle of whisky from the other, and exclaim ing: "Here, boys, is peace for the dead 'and- consolation for the living," pro ceeded to read a chapter, while the bot tlfl w?fi nafi.wrl from month to month. until its contents wjere exhausted. , At the conclusion of" this csremony the tihieyes were stretched np to the limb of a oottonwood tree, face to face, their feet almost touching the ground. Both were buried on the spot, in a shallow french, and then the avengers returned to town. The names of the unfortunates "are Cole and Callahan. The father of the latter is a minister at Topeka. Severe Punishment. A rnaa named, Charles Taylor was r& cently convicted, in England, of sending a threatening letter. The judge before whom he was tried, in passing sentence, commented with severity on the offense, and condemned the prisoner to penal servitude for life. Just one hundred years ago, one Archibald Girdwood was : oonvioted at the Old Bailed, in London, of sending a threatening letter, and he suffered a still more severe punishment; for after an appeal, in vain, on some law points, to all the judges, he was exe cuted. ... vA"Vx-? ?MMmmVI-> Canine Sagacity. A gentleman of wealth, and position in london had, some years ago, a country ouae and farm about sixty miles from the letropolis. At this coantry residence e kept a number of dogs, and among lem a very large mastiff and a Sootoh jrrier; and at the close of one of his immer residences in the country, he re olved to bring this terrier with him to london for the winter season. There eing no railway to that particular part f the country, the dog traveled with tie servants in a post carriage, and on is arrival at the town house was brought ut to the stable, where a large New iULdland dog was kept asa watchdog, 'his latter individual looked with, ariy tiing but pleasure oh the arrival of the ittle intruder' from the oountry; and onsequently the Sooth terrier had not sen very long in nis n^w aume wucu bis canine master of the stable attacked 00, im, and, in the language of human be- j ags, gave him a sound thrashing. The g^} ittle animal could, of course,-.never mn iope by himself to chastise his host for :r\ bis inhospitable welcome, but he deter- ne< ained that by soma agenoy chastise- uj? aent should come. Accordingly, tie ] iy very quiet 'that night in a remote orner of the stable,'but when morning ] iad fully shone forth, he was nowhere jj] o be found. Searoh was made for him, i s the phrase says, high and low, but/ rithout sucoess, and the conclusion re-1 'tag actantly. arrived at was that he had beeif:t tolen.

J* < 1 Massachusetts Silver Mines. The Chipman mine at Newbuiyport, Mass., about which so much fuss was nade a year or two ago, is progressing juietly, but very hopefully. The shaft is Bunk 185 feet and several ."drifts" >r galleries run off at various depths, ;he longest being, five hundred feet, at i depth of thirty-seven feet from the mrfaoe,, and the next 190 feet, at the me-hundred foot level. From one and pne-half to four tons are taken1' out daily; ivorth about 8l0O per toanek The mine' is managed skillfully and economically, md realized in its first year about $24,000 net profit. This gives great encourage " nent to its owners* as the mdic^tiom all. favor a constant increase of produ'ddve i TTai LIUSB HO 1UWOI UOpt/UB tkTO lOOUllOU* DU far, it is stated, the mine has produced more than any mine on the famous Gom itock lode at Virginia City at the same lepth. . The Gould and Currv, now the most famous mine in the world, yielded in Its first three years, 1859, '60, '61, a ;otal of only $22,400, or less than "the dhipman has yielded in its first, yea^ [n 1862 Gould and Gurry 'yielded $44, XX), and in 1863 $858,000, ^andjtlie yield ias oontinued to increase enormously with the increase of depth. This faot is ?ery inspiring to the Ghipman operators, who believe the Newburyport vein is equally susceptible of development^ and ire pushing things to reach a depth pf Ive hundred feet this year.

Mr. James Lick, the California phil anthropist, has the reputation of driv: ng a close bargan." The following inecdote is told of him: Wnen he was sngaged in grading his grounds at Alviso. le employed a large number of horses md carts. Haying need of another lorse, he sent his nephew to hire one of i neighbor, agreeing to pay $1 a day or its use. In a few days he sent to nquire the price of the horse, which he owner placed at $150. No answ0r vas returned, and aftei some mont s klr. Lick sent for his neighbor to come >ver and he would pay him for his horse. Snowing his reputation for close cal sulation in money matters, Mr. ?. ex acted to reoeive only the $150 { but on riesenting himself, M*. Lick referred o his book, and, finding that he had tad the horse 145 days, handed over S95, with the dry,remark: "Ibelieve fc would have been as well for me to Lave bought that animal five months ~ >> ?

No one probably in these days favors , very old notion in vegetable physi ilogy?that there are special vessels for arrying the sap up to the leaves and ithers for bringing them down again; or it is tolerably well known by all who tave tried to raise plants from " slips " hit the cuttings grow just as well if >lanted upside down as if set in the di eotion they grew on the tree. If there ire any left, the experience of. ainEng isR gardner, named Rochford, described n recent horticultural papers, should be inough. He grows grapeij under glass, ind believing that two 8etg' of roots eould be better than one, hebent-tbe op of a long cane into the ground, orming a. large aroh,nndthe top rooted. - Lfterward he cut the arch astmder in the riddle, so that half the cane might be liiid to stand on its head.

Last Ohrlstmas ScrofuU made its appearance In my ijatem?large running ulcers appeared on me aai fol ows: One on each of my arms, one on my thigh, which sxtended to the seat, one on my head, which eat Into skull bone, one on my left leg, which became so b?d iiat two phniclans oame to ampntate the limb, though ipen consultation oonclndcd not to do to, aa my whole Jody was so full of 8orofu'& the? deemed Itadviwble to sot the sore, whioh was painful beyond description, and ;here was a duart of matter run from this one sore. The physicians all save me up to die, and Bald they 10aid ao no more for me. Both of my legs were drawn lp to my seat, and it wu thought if I did get np again J Tould be a cripp'.e for life. When In,this condition I saw VEGETINK advertised, tnd commenced taking it in Maioh, and followed on rlthituntUI had used sixteen bottles, and this morn ng I am going to plow com, a well m&D. All my towns' nen'say it was a miracle to s>.e me around walking and forking. In conclusion I will add when I waa enduring 'uch treat suffering, from thatdreadfnl dlstse, Scrofula, I irayed to the Lord above to take me oat of this world, rat as VEGETINE bas restored me the blessings of lealth, I desire more than ever to live, that I may be of ?me service to my fellow men, and I know of no better vay to aid suffering humanity, than to lnclosf yon this tatement 01 my case, witn aa wnien nopu mat yoa rillpabilih it. and It will afford me pfoatnre t" i ^pi/ to my oommunlcaUmi which I may reoeive tbereirom.
