To Make Hncknhrnt CnktH.
FiRsr Rbcipr.?One quart of buckwheat
Hour. ? small teacr.pful of Indian
uieal, one and a half teaspoonfuls salt,
four tablespoon fills good lively yeast;
mix with milk and tepid water enough
to make it the consistency of muffin batter;
then beat well for fifteen minutes,
and set in a warm place to rise over
night. In the morning the batter may
be sour; if so dissolve a teaspoonful of
soda in a little waim water and stir in;
if the cakes are not sweet add more saleratus;
do not beat the batter; add a
tablespoonful of molasses to brown the
cakes?the milk does not always brown
them sufficiently. Bake on- a well-heated
griddlo that is perfectly clean; a soapr*
id /I /11 n rt/v on l l?r\n
oi/v/nci ^iiuuic uwv.13 xiv an uvu
griddle rhould be greased with a piece
of rind of ham or fat salt pork on a fork.
Butter and silver-drip* syrup are best to
eat with buckwheat cakes; maple syrup
is also good.
Second.?Take one cupful of flour,
two of buckwheat flour, and one of
yeast: one tablespoonful of sugar, and
salt according to t*ste. Mix with enough
water to make a stiff batter, and set to
rise over night. In the morning add
water in sufficient quantity to make the
batter ruu when poured on the griddle.
Third ?Let the buckwheat be of the
hulled sort and fresh. Pat into a twoquart
"pitchor one and a half pints of
tepid water; add four tablespoonfuls of
baker's or as much " compressed " yeast
as will make one loaf of bread?other
kinds in proportion?with a little salt.
Then stir in buckwheat enough to make
a thick batter; cover the pitcher and set
away to rise over night, after beating
thoroughly. In the morning add three
tablespoonfuls of molasses, and a quarter
of a teaspoonfnl of soda, dissolved in
about three tablespoonfuls of milk.
Beat all well together, and pour the
cakes from the pitcher upon a well-heated
griddle.

Potatoes lor Horoe*.
. I onoa came near losing a very valuable
horse, a correspondent writes, from
feeding hira dry hay and oats with nothing
loosening. I have never believed in
dosing a horse with medicine, but something
is actually necessary to keep a
horse in the right condition. Many use
powder-*, bnt potatoes are better, and
safer, and cheaper, if fed judiciously.
If those who are not in the habit of
feeding potatoes to horses will try them,
they will be astonished at the result. I
have known a horse changed from a
lazy, dumpish one, to a quick, active,
headstrong animal, in five days, by simply
adding two quarts of potatoes to his
feed daily. If very much clear corn
meal is fed, they do not need so many
potatoes. Too many potatoes are weakening,
and so are too many apples.
When I was a lad, I was away from
home at school one winter, and had the
care of one horse, one yoke of oxen, and
one cow, every one of which 1 had to
card or curry every day. The horsi had
three pails of water, four quarts of oats,
two quarts of small potatoes, and two
quarts of corn extra every day he worked,
with what hay he wanted, and a
stronger and more active horse I have ;
never yet seen.
The Plodder.
Take two young men?one plods and
the other works. The plodder saves
X) a year for thirty years, and regnly
deposits it at. six per cent, com- j
pound interest?that is, he invests in a
good six per cent, stock his every year's :
$300 and all the interest of all the dehnnits?And
vhat. in ilia r a cm If ? An.
swei?$25,140. "What of the worker ?
If he is one in ten thousand, he has
about the same. Unless he is one of
ten thousand, he has little or nothing.
But the $25,140 is sure to any one of,
the ten thousand?in a word, to anybody
at all who could earn $300 a year
more than he could use. If he oould
save but one dollar a year it would be
nearly a hundred, or rather it would be
a trifle over if kept for thirty-three
years?that is, $103.18.
Idiocy in the United States.
The number of idiots in the United
Sfcates^aecording to the census of 1870,
was 24.527, of whom 14,485 were malas i
and 10,042 females; 3,188 were colored, \
and 1,845 foreign born. But the number
and their proportion to the population
amnot be ascertained with any satisfactory
degree of accuracy. The census
statistics are untrustworthy, both
from the different standards adopted by
enumerators, and from the difficulty of
persuading parents, from whom the returns
are generally obtained, that their
ohildrcn are idiots. Some of the worst
cases in idiot asylums were brought there
by their friends, not as idiots, but as !
being peculiar in their habits. The effort
has been made in several States to <
obtain returns from physiciaus, clergy
men and town officers, but with very
moderate success. So far as these returns
go, however, they show a much
greater prevalence of idiocy than has J
belen commonly supposed; and it is now
generally conceded by competent judges j
that the number of idiots is greater than
that of the deaf and dumb or the blind,
and as great as that of the insane, the
proportion being not less than one in
one thousaud of the population. Assuming
this ratio, Hie number of idiots
in tho United States would be more than
38,000.
Dividing- Her Money.
For mauy years Mrs. Margaret Laps,
an eccentric but estimable lady, has
been a re-ident of Watorvliet village, N.
Y. Dining the past five years she has
been an ininat > of the family of James
Macklin, her son-in-law, who lives near
the Shaker settlement. The eccentric
conduct of the old lady?she being
seventy years of age?has of late beer a
source of much trouble a*id auxiety to
her relatives. One Suuday evening she
left home and did not return. No trace
of her could be found. Tho search for
her was kept up by her son-in-law until
Tuesday morning, when, in passing a
deserted building formerly used by the
Shakers as a hotel, he heard a noise inside,
and, pulling a block out of a clink
in one of the walls of the building looked
in. What was his surprise to discover
his mother-iu-law iu one of the
apartments kneeling on the floor. In
front of her were several piles of greenbacks
and three piles of gold coin. She
was evidently counting the money. As
it was not kuowu that she was possessed
of any money, Mr. Macklin was at a loss
to understand the matter, and, appearing
before the old lady, requested an explanation.
She was greatly surprised
and annoyed at being discovered, and
told her son-in-law to go home, assuring
him that she would soon follow. He returned
home, and on entering the house
was astonished to find his sister-in-law,
who lives in New York, there. Before he
had recovered from his surprise his
brother-in-law, a resident of i5unalo, entered
the house, his coming having been
entirely unanuounced to any ot the
household. Explanation from the new
comers revealed the fact that they had
both been peremptorily summoned by
their mother to be in Watervliet on that
day. While they were explaining Mrs.
Laps came in. It seems that she had
saved up during her life 32,500. Feeling
that she had not much longer to live,
and determined that there should be no
wrangling over her little fortune after
her death, she had written to her son
and daughter to meet her at her son-inlaw's.
She then gathered np her money
and repaired to the deserted hotel,
where she might count and plans its division
without interruption. The result
of her deliberation had been that
she should divide the money equally
among her children, which she at once
proceeded to do. AmoDg the money
were two hundred English sovereigns,
which she had kept fifty years. The
rest was greenbacks. None of her children
knew of the existence of the
money.
A Unique Contest.
Among the many contested seats in
the United States House of Representatives
is one from New York, the deiails
of which are reported from Washington
as follows: At the last election a successor
to Hon. A. F. Allen, member of
Congress, deceased, for the Thirty-third
district 'was to be chosen. Nelson J.
Norton was the Republican candidate,
and Charles S. Cary the Democratic.
The district is oomposed of Cattaraugus
and Chautauqua counties. .The board
of State commissioners have not yet
met, and no declaration of the result
has yet been made, but an examination

fact*: In Cattaraugus county Nelson J.
Norton received for representative in
Congress 4,961 votes; Charles S. Oary,
4,525 votes. In Chautauqua county,
for representative in Congress, Charles
S. Cary received 4,614, and Flint
Blauchard (Rep.), seventy-two votes.
For member of Congress Nelson J. Norton
received 5,809 votes, and a few scattering.
For the representative in the
Forty fourth Congress, Augustus N.
Lowry received five votes. If the votes
for the representative in Congress aud
for member of Congress be held to have
been cas. for the fame office, Mr. Norton
received in the two counties 10,770
votes and Mr. Cary 9,139, making Mr.
Norton's majority 1,631. But Mr.
Lowry claims that his five votes were the
only votes which can be legally counted
because described as cast lor the Fortyfourth
Congress, and, therefore, he has
given notice of a purpose to contest Mr.
Norton's right to a s at if he is awarded
the certificate by the State board of commissioners.
How to Choose Christmas Gifts.
A writer says, apropos of choosing
Christmas presents: The usual practice
in choosiug Christmas gifts is to start
out with a full portemonnaie and come
home with it empty, having scoured a
dozen book and print and curio shops
meantime to "find enough pretty thiugs
to go round." The gift sent to one
friend might have been offered with
equal propriety to a hundred others.
Now everybody (worth remembering at
all on Christmas day) has a fancy, or
whim, or association, wh ch a trifle will
recall and gratify. Now that we have
so little mouey, let us set our brains to
work to remember these whims or hobbies,
and to And the suggestive trifles,
and, our word for it, we will startle our
friends with a more real pleasure than
if we had sent them thie costliest unmeaning
gift. There must be a nice
discrimination, too, in assorting these
trifles. There are certain folk whom we
know to be sorely in need of articles for
the wardrobe, and to whom we must
therefore give utterly useless follies,
because they knew that we know it; and
there are other and better folk in like
coudition who will receive a collar or a
pair of gloves with as hearty and sincere
feeling as though the offering were a
strain of Christmas music. There is one
cousin whoso gift must smell of the (
shops aud the dollars paid for it, and an- i
other who, if we send her our worn copy !
of George Herbert, or the little broken !
vase which has stood for years on the !
little study table, would receive them
with wet eyes, and dnd them fragrant
with old memories.
Marriage in Borneo.
This is the way the matrimonial knot'
is tied in Borneo : On the wedding |
day the bride and bridegroom are
brought from opposite ends of the village
to the spot where the ceremony is
to be performed. They are made to
sit on two bars of iron, that bleSSinors

may attend the pair. A cigar and betel
leaf, prepared with the areca nut, are
next put into the hands of the bride and
bridegroom. One of the priests then
waves two fowls over the heads of the
couple, and in a long address to the
Supreme BeiDg calls down blessings
upon the pair, and implores that peace
and happiness may attend the union.
After the heads of the affianced have
been knocked against each other three
or four times, the bridegroom puts the
prepared leaf and the cigar into the
mouth of the bride, while she does the
same to him, whom she thus aoknowl- j
edges as her husband.

The Darien Canal Project. c
a
The commissioners appointed bj the f
President of the United States to report 1
is to the respective merits of the varijus
routes surveyed for a ship canal to (
jonnect the Atlantic and Pacific oceans o
report that in their opinion, after a full r
uvestigation, the Nicaragua route is the l!
jest, aud they estimate that the pro- *
oosed ship canal, from the harbor of c
Brito on the Pacific, to Greytown on the r
\tlantic, can be constructed at a total 6
rost not exceeding $66,000,000. The J
jommissioners say that obstacles of an tl
ilmost insurmountable nature were u
found in all but the Panama and Nicaragua
routes, and notwithstanding its t]
greater length, 181 miles, they give the ?
^reference to the later. It is the only j,
route where the climate is not danger- &
>us to health. In the lower routes the
nalaria would cause the death of the
greater part of the workmen before the c
sanal could be completed. It is, too, the b
>nly route where an unfailing and prop- u
jr supply of water could be found, Lake ?
Nicaragua, upon this route, supplying a a
jonstaut and uniform stream. The com- c
nission, after speaking in general terms ?
)f the enormous saving of distance, a'
;ime, cost, and risk which the successful
milding of the canal would accomplish, n
ihow the entire feasibility of the Nicara- &
jua route, and add : I
It is now regarded as of the highest
mportance that the United States pro- ?
reed at once to carry out the feasible c
alans of the ship canal in order to prercnt
either France or England from
joming in and reaping the honor and 6
profit of this great enterprise. The re- "
suits of this work cannot be fully esti- j
mated, but doubtless when the canal is a
rompleted nearly one-half of the carry- C
ing trade of the world will be revolutionized.
For the comparatively small
mm of sixty odd millions of dollars, the v
:om mission assert that an enormous re- e
turn would be made. One item alone, t
it is thought, would make the expense 1
Df building tne canal a good investment, ^
md that is the shipment of California ,
products to Europe and the ports upon
the Atlantic coast, but more especially to
Europe. California ships large quantities
of wheat to the European markets,
it present all this wheat lias to go 1
iround by Cape Horn, meeting the dan
jers of the stormy quarter and encoun- f
tering a long delay and expense that L
would all be obviated by the canal. i
To allow any foreign power to build j,
this canal, while we pay toll to them for d
its nse. is something which the commis- t
sion thinks the people cf the United v
States will not tolerate. D

An Empty Honor. , r
The London correspondent of the 11
Chicago Journal writes: The bank- ! r
ruptcy of a baronet and ex-lord mayor is j *
not a nsual occurrence, though it would 1
be of little account if it did not point a a
moral. Mr. Sills John Gibbons, a re- *
ipectable London tradesman, who had
been for many years an alderman, be- p
3^.me in due course, two or three years 1 d
ago, lord mayor of London, and j \
strutted his brief year on the stage, ,
being made a baronet during his term. 1
That over, he sank back into his posi- '
don a3 an alderman. A few weeks ago j t
it was announced that, owing to ill- j ?
health, he had resigned his aldermanic i j
%own, and we were all sympathizing *
with him. A little later, his name ap- ^
peared in the fatal Gazette among the ; c
aames of the bankrupts, and he is now 1
undergoingthe processor whitewashing, v
The moral I alluded to is this : He was
3oing a comfortable business, and if he j f
liad been contented with that might i c
have retired in ft few years and lived j ?
somfortably the rest of his days. But! r
no?the height of a London tradesman's i p
ambition is to be lord mayor for one ! [
brief year, and poor Gibbons could not j I
resist his destiny. The result was that j 1
the ?10,000 or ?15,000 it cost him (be- .
sides the salary) during tho e short ;
months was more than his business *
would justify or his capital could stand,
and the result is his downfall and the {

Common Sense t? Prejudice.
iv B. V. Pieroe, M. D., of the World's Dispensary,
Buffalo, N.Y.. author of "The Peoples
Common Sense Medical Adviser," etc., etc.
I am aware that there is a popular and not
Itogetber unfounded prejudice against "jratnt
medicines,' owing to the small amount of
lerit which many of them possess. The ap-"
ellation, "patent medicine," does not apply
} my remedies, as no patent has ever been j
eked for or obtained upon them, nor have i
hey been urged upon the publio as " cure- j
lis." They are simply seme favorite prescrip- j
ions, which, in a very extensive practioe, have |
roved their superior remedial virtues In the 1
ore of the diseases for which they are recom- ,
lended. Everv practicing physician has Lis
avorite remedies, which he ofteneet recomlends
or uses, because he hoi 'be greatest
onfidence in their virtues. T* patient does j
ot know their compositic? Even preecrip-1
[one are usually written in a language unin- I
elligible to any but the diuggist. As much
eorecy is employed as in the preparation of
roprietary medicines. Does the fact that an
rticle is prepared by a process known only to
he manufacturer4render that article lees valuble?
How many physicians know the elelontary
composition of the remedies which
bey employ, some of which have never been ,
nalyzed? Few practitioners know howmor- j
bine, quinine, podophyllin, leptandrin, pepsin I
r chloroform are made, or how nauseous
rugs are transformed into palatable elixirs ; j
et they do not h*?eitate to employ them. Is it
ot inconsistent to use a prescription, the
ompoeition or which is unknown to us, and
iscard another preparation simply because it
i accompanied by a printed statement of its
ropertiee, with dirt ctions for its use ?
Some persons, while admitting that my machines
are good pharmaceutical compounds, obect
to them on the ground that they are too
ften used with insufficient judgment. I propose
to obviate this difficulty by e; lightening
be people as to the structure and fauctions of
heir bodies, the causes, character and symporas
of disease, and by indicating the prope**
nd judicious employmcjt of u medcines,
ogether with such auxihiry irej!m?-f - mai
e necessary. Such it one of the designs c<
he People's Medical in viser, forty thousand
opies of v hich have already beon publishe 1,
nd are sold at the exceedingly iow price of
1.50. and sent post-paid to anv addrets within
lie United States and Canada.
If you would patronize medicines, scientifislly
prepared, use my famuy medicines,
loldeu Medical Disooveryis tonic, alterative
r blood cleansing, and an uneqaaled oough
emedy; PleasaDt Purgative T >liets, tcarcely
irger than mustard seed, constitute an agreeMe
and reliable physic; Favorite Prescripi
n, a remedy for bilitated females ; my
k-mpound Extract of Smart-Weed, a magical
emedy for pain, bowdl complaints, and an unqnaied
liniment for both Unman and horseesh
; while Dr. Sage's Catarrh B.medy is
nown the world over as the greatest specific
ur catarrh and "cold in the head" ever given
5 the public.
These standard remedies have been before
l.e public for many years?a period long
rough to fully test their merits, and the beet
rgument that can be advanoed in their favor
s the fact that their sale was never so great

Winter is now fairly upon ns, and the
aatns are hastening to the lumber woods in
arious parts of the country. Our advice to
very man who goes to the woods, be he capain,
cook, teamster or any other man, is to
ake along a good stock of Johnson's Anodyne
'.inhnenl and Pars ms' Purgative Pills. Many
aonths of labor (in the aggregate) may be
aved by this precaution.?Com.
slhenck's mandrikk pills
r
Vill be found to possess those qualities necessary to
he total erad cation of all bilious attacks, prompt to
tart the secretions of the liver, and give a healthy tone
o the entire system. Indeed, it is no ordinary discovery
o medical science to have invented a remedy for these
tubboru complaints, which develop all the results pro[ncod
by a heretofore free use of ca'omel, a mineral
us"ly dreaded by mankind, and acknowledged to be
lestmctivein the extreme to the human system. That
he properties of certain vegetables comprise all the
irtues of calomel without its injurious tendencies, is
iow an admitted fact, rendered indisputable by science
researches: and t!i(.<e who use the Mandrake Pills
rili bo fully satisfied that the best medicines are those
rovided by nature in tbe common herbs and roots of
he fields.
Those pills open the bowels and correct all bilious denotements
without salivation or any of the injurious
fleets of calomel or other poisons. The secretion of I

Ample directions for nse accompany each box of pills.

A City's Railroads.
The street railroads of flew York city
carry over 160,000,000 passengers everyyear.
To perform this immense work,
over 12,000 horses are required, and
1,500 cars are in constant use. About
or.e hundred miles of the streets of the
city have double lines of railroad track
laid along them, requiring, with turnouts,
side tracks, and branches, about
450 miles of rails. About $30,000,000
has been expended in building and
equipping these roads; over $750,000 is
required yearly to maintain the roads
and real estate, and the expense of operating
and repairing the lmes amounts
to $6,500,000 annually.
A Reason for IU
There is, of course, says an exchange,
no reason to doubt the truth of the
story told by the officers of a bark of
their discovery at sea of a fight between
a sea serpent and a whale ; out it might
perhaps be as well to say that the bark
was laden with rum, and that the selfrestraint
of the crew, in seeing only one

h cnred, and rough rkin made soft and
smooth, by using Juniper Tab Soap. Be careful
to get only that made by Caswell, Hazard k
Co.. New York, as there are many imitations
made with common tar, all of which are worthlee?
