The Overflowing Cup.
A company of Southern ladies were one
day assembled in a friend's pralor, when
the conversation chanced to turn on earth

peculiar trial and bereavement to relate
except one pale, sad looking woman,
whose lustreless eye and dejected air
showed that she was a prey to the deepest
melancholy. Suddenly arousing herself,
she said in a hollow voice, " Not one of
you know what trouble is."
" Will you please, Mrs. Gray," said
the kind voice of a lady who well knew
her awry, " tell the ladies what you call
trouble."
"I will if you desire," she replied, " for

To MAKE FAMLY SoA.-Take six
pounds of bar soap, one quarter of a
pound of sal soda, three teaspoonfull spir.
its turpentine, one and a half teaspoonsfull
of camphor, two teaspoonsfull of salt.
Cut the soap up fine, boil the water and
:add all the ingredients, and boil 30 min
utes, take off and pour into shallow ves
sels to cool and harden.
ANoTHER.--5 pounds har soap, 4 pounds
sal soda, 2 oz. borax, 81ad 1 oz. hart-horn.
Dissolve in 22 quarts of boft water and
boil 15 or 20 miitates.
To MAKE JEL.Y So.u'.-Af sr pouring

io MAtE SOrr SOAV.--Take 10 lbs.
potash well pulverized, 15 lbs. grease,
and three buckets boiling' water. Mix
and stir potash and water together uatil
dissolved. Then add the grease, stirring
well ; put all into a barrel, -and every
tmoraning add two bu) keit eold wat- r,

pound of ivory-black, well pulverized ;
halt ai pound of loaf-sugar :half an ounce
of oil of vitriol, and one oonee of swe't
;il incor;:orate the whole by stirring.
''his is a blacking of very -great repae.
A LIQUID TO U.txAN C.oriais nxOM
GutS.s.--This is the best receipt known
fIir the extraction of grease. 'rake one
peek of lime ; add thereto as much water
ias will dissolve the liIme aptd leave.abamt
two gallons of clear water- ;'fter it' has
iu-enI well stirred and settled. l.et it standel
about two hi ours. and then pour off the
clear liquid into another vewe!. Now
add to it three ounces of pearlash fo'r
every gallon of the liquid, stir it well,
and, when settled, bottle it for use. . This
liquor is tol be diluted with water, to suit
the streagth or delicacy of the colour of
the cloth. It is applied with a piece of
cazarse sponge, rubbing out the grease,
and applying clear water afterwards.
. M.osesrIA, if you have not French
chalk, will efThctually remove grease spots
from silk, on rubbing it in well, and after
standing awhile, apply a piece of soft
brown paper to the wrong side, on which
press a warm iron gently, and what grease
is not absorbed by the paper can be re
moved by washing the spot carefully with
cold water.
WIcKS FOP. C.tNDLE.-Prepare your
wicks about half the usual size, wet with
spirits of turpentine, put them into the
sun until dry, then mould or dip your
candles. Candles thus made last longer,
and give a much clearer light. In fact
they are nearly or quite equal to sperm,
in clearness of light.
To MAKE VIxF.GAR.-Mix together in a
clean keg three gallons of clear rain wa
ter. (that has been caught in a clean tub
without running over the roof of a house,)
one quart of West'Indi aImolasses, and
.ile pint (ot hop yeast. Cover it, and set
it in a warm place where it will be exposed
to the sun. Remembier to shake the cask
every day. In three. months it will be
excellent' vinegar. Then transfer it to
stone jugs, and keep it closely corked.

A Co., Hazelton Bros., and A. H. Gale & Co., Nuw

struments having already won such far-famed ce
lebrity, it is only necessary.for us to repeat that for
strength, duraability and finish, together with power,
depth, er'etneaa and aftness of foea, they challenge
competition. Persons wanting a Superior Piano
Forte, would do much beuer to call and select from
a large assortment, than by dealing with Pedlars
and agents of inferior-makers, where they have no
choibe, and have ofteitto pay higher prices for in
feriror Instruments, than fine ones of snperier
makers can be bought for.
Every Piano Forte sold by us i$ warranted in

ever. Persons ordering from a' distance from us
