FARM, GARDEN AND HOUSEHOLD, j . ? Domestic Recipes. Boiled Codfish.?Tie the flsh several times over with striug, lay it in cohl water plentifully salted, and let it boil gently, carefully skimming ; when done lift it up and let it drain, then serve. An ordinary-sized piece will be done two or three minutes after the water comes to boiliug point. Mutton Cutlets.?Trim off all superfluous fat from each cutlet, dip them m an egg beaten up with a little oil, some pepper and salt, then cover them with bread crumbs, and let thorn rest for a couple of hours. Fry them in plenty of buttor or lard to a light brown color. Arrange them in a circle on a dish, and ponr some tomato sauce iufco the center. Tmn nnrvo rrViitii anirpr niifl JL nv VU|/w nmv\' w**\' cup butter, one egg, one-half cup sweet milk, flour enough to roll; flavor to suit the taste*..

Excellent Puff Pie Crust.?To one pound or quart of flour add one pound or quart of butter. Mix with the flour one-quarter of the butter and enough water to make a stiff dough. Divide the balanoe of tjie butter into six equal parts. Roll the dough into a large thin sheet, then put at equal distances one of the six pieoes of butter divided into small bits; fold tu> the sheet or paste, flour it, roll it ouf again, and add in the same manner another portion of the butter. Repeat this prooess until the butter is all in, then fold again and divide into as many piece*as'you want sheets of paste. Everything should be cold, the working tools as well as the ingredients.

When honey bees are hived, or when they |rer f<ejsfwed to a new locality, eypry low MUU UBUCO iiocb m nuu? of th?hi$e eiglit or ten feet, and describe# a circle in its flight, then darts off jtmigbt line fii search of honey; ainllTOlcxlie circulafflight takes place the locality of the hive is so unerringly .fixed, in the minds (so to speak) of the %eesi<hat they return to tlieir homes with suo^a degree of certainty that if many hivis htid.tn a row, not over a foot apart, and all of the same size, . shape and color, not a single bee ever alights before the wrong hive; and here . we will mention one of the most astonishing facts in the history of thi6 insect, that in no case can a bee of one hive enter-the hive of another fami'y without iustant detection, and ejection or death. may place two hives as closely together a*possible, and let them remain it sfcasbn, and Sometimes the bees clustering on the outside of their hives, and the members of the two families ahnoft tonchMg*each other at times, and yet not the least acquaintanceship will be formed; and if a bee' from one hive enter the other, it would be seized as quickly as if it belonged to a family a mile distantf-and be either driven away or stung to death. If these two hives be traqpposed, the bees of each on going (Hi| to the fields the first day or two would enter the wrong hives, and a battle would ensue that would cover the ground with the dead and dying. And if a family of bees be put into a cellar, or bee house, in November, and kept there till the following May, and then brought out and set in a new location, a large portion of the bees, on taking a flight, will return to their old locality, whieh shows that their memories are good for five or six months at least. But when disturbed and irritated, as mast be sometimes, they seem . Jd forget their injuries in about three Curiae HainM. There is in nearly every neighborhood a man who has a reputation for curing fyyns. People find something in the taste I of bacon that oomes from his s smokehouse that thej do not find in that grading the highest m the market. This man is one who has a good smokehouse, who is careful as to all preparatory measures, careful as to the hanging of hams,-sbeuAders, etc., and who chooses the material out of which he builds his flre,fpr producing smoke with a knowledge of what will produce the best results. Hie selection of certain kinds of Kvood and its preparation in a particular _ way might be laughed at in this day of wholesale smoking as fine points, and the man who iS^sted on thoroughly cleaning his smokehouse before he put his meat into it might be called over particular; but there ^ is no doubt he woBJd gife uuthe old'flavor and excel fcnfce. If is possible that farmers neglect many of these flne points, in which their fathers had great pride, and so fail jm.keaniag up the standard of home udtffcbioaeat. If this should be read by any farmer of the old regime, we hope he will at oflce communicate the details of his own process of curing meat. But suppose ther? is no smokehouse on the * farm? The Rural Netv- Yorker advises a plan in use in many localities. On a slight rise of ground dig an underground passage, one end open for a fire, the otherjjenmg in a large barrel standing on the giound/in which the hams and shoulderaar?- to be hung, or & box may take the^itwe of the barrel. After the fire is well started, the lower end is ekyed, md jtor smoke seeks an outlet ttffbngh me oarrel or box at the other end. r ?K&' A Spanish Story. idLaviov?? The guide to a party traveling in Spain told the following: In one of the triumphs of the Moors over the a band of soldiers scoured' the-- Country to recruit for the Alhambrio monarch's harem ! In so doing they espied a nunnery, which was, of canrse, their r especial abhorrence, and they immediately galloped toward it to secure the prizes it contained, doubly zealous since it was for their religion, as well as sovereign; the nuns bf^hfrrroY Upon their approach, for the rupors of their hateful errand had preceded them, and hastily consulted among themselves as to what they could do to avoid the degradation and sacrilege; their only chance was to make thcmscfc^ unattractive. and one among them proposed that they should cnt off their nose# than which surely nothing could make theni more ugly; this was approved by the others (though it is to bo supposed with more or less hesitation, since it was not only painful, but would make them repulsive for ever after), and when the Moors reached them the many beautiful Spanish maidens inclosed in the walls had become sufficiently unpleasant objects to avoid being exposed to the threatened desecration!

I will faithfully discharge the duties of a citizen of a.%? ?. TT__ *4. 3 me uuikhj O?I?P. The first political battle of the session of the House was when Mr. Randall (Dem.), of Pennsylvania, moved to suspend the rules in order "to proceed to the consideration of the Amnesty bill. Mr. Blaine (Rep.), of Maine, at once came to the frout. Mr. Randall desired discussion on the bill, but would not admit of amendments to it. Mr. Blaine desired the bill left open for amendments. The question being taken the bill was rejected by a vote of 172 yeas and 97 nays, not the requisite two-thirds in the majority. Mr. Blaine then moved to reconsider the vote takon, and addressed the House on the subject Mr. Blaine in bis speech desired exemption of Jefferson Davis from its provisions, and was willing the bill should pass, grauting amnesty to all others. In his remarks he detailed at length the story of Andersonville, and laid the blame of the sufferings there to Davis, lie said : I do not arraign the Southern poople for the Andersouville crime. God forbid that I should charge any people with sympathiz ng with such an order. There were many evidences of great uneasiness among the Southern people about it, and one of the greatest crimes of Mr. Davis was that he concealed it from the Southern people. Mr. Hdl (Dem.), of Georgia, replied to Mr. Blaine on the Ammes'y bill. He claimed that Jefferson Davis was not the monster he has been pictured, and the Federals were responsible for the horrors of Andersonville. Ih concluding his remarks he said : ' Lot us unite to repair the wrongs that distracts and oppress the country. Let us turn our backs on the past, and let it be said in the future that he shall be the greatest patriot, the truest patriot, the ablest patriot, who shall do the most to repair the wrongs of the past, and to promote the glories or the fntuie.' Mr. Morrison (Dem.), of Illinois, introduced a bill preparatory to the redemption of United States notes and the resumption of spocie payments. It proposes to retain gold in the treasury to the amount cf thirty per cent, of the outstanding legal tenders; requires national banks to retain gold paid for their Infaraar ftn h-.,ula <lar,r>HltAd to BCCUrG OUrreilCV tiil thev nave thirty percent, of their ontat&ndiug notes, anl repeals that portion of the liesumption act compelling specie resumption in 1H79. The United States Fleet. The United States home fleet, ironclads and all, is centering at Port Royal. This movement, a Washington letter saye, is in pursuance of a general plan of the secretary of the navy to make that place the headquarters of the North Atlantic station, as it presents many advantages over any other port on the Atlantic coast. The writer adds: The climate is very healthful, and the harbor offers every facility for the exercise of naval tactics, so that the service can be kept in thorough discipline. On one occasion only during the late war was the yellow fever there, and then for only a very brief period, while at Key West, the former headquarters of the station, it was often epidemic and caused the vessels at that place nearly every summer to bo ordered to Portsmouth, N. H., or some other Northern port where supplies, repairs, etc., could be furnished without delay. The geographical position of Port Royal makes it the central point for the North Atlantic station, and vessels rendezvoused there can reach Cuban waters and the gulf, where our interests most need to be looked after, within forty-eight hours. It is the policy of the secretary of the navy to make our home squadron larger than any of those abroad, because he believes in being prepared for any emergency which may arise out of the j present difficulties on the island of Cuba. While there is no official announcement ! in regard to the condition of aflairs between this country and Spain, it is believed in well informed circles that the uncertain tenure which Spain has upon that island may cause that government to become iuvolved in a difficulty with the United States when it sees it can no longer hold the island and then parts with it as a matcer of necessity. An! other reason why vessels will be ordered j to Port Royal from Northern rivers and j harbors where they have been laid up is to free them from the ice during the approaching winter. In case of any I difficulties arising it would not do to j have these vessels frozen up at League i island or some other Northern port, j where they could be of no service ; hence the secretary deems it advisable to have them at Port Royal, where there is no danger of an ice blockade, and in case of an emergency they could be used with effect. American Beef Abroad. An article in the Farmer, published in London, England, representing that forty-two tons of American beef had just been sold on that market for six pence i per pound, was deemed of sufficient importance to telegraph to this country. The beef in question was the fourth consignment made by Eastman & Martin, well known dealers of New York city, j They claim to be the first experimenters ! in this direction, fitting up a line of j steamers with refrigerators of the Bates j patent, having a forced circulation of ! air. While the enterprise has proved I successful in delivering the beef in good condition in the new Smithfield market, I it remains to be seen whether there is : sufficient margin between New York and I London to make it profitable. Shipping I about the best beef found in this market, the first cost, with the subsequent ex-1 pense of sending abroad?using about forty tons of ice to each oue hundred I head of cattle?so runs up the bills that j it is a question whether a successful , competition can be carried on with the choice English and Irish beef sold at about | eight pence per pound. After landing j in Liverpool the meat is run to London j by car, and to prevent its getting dirty i in handling, each quarter is bagged or | wrapped in cotton, so that the care, I labor, and expense are considerable j items in the cost of delivery. Further i experimants, with a view to econo| mizing some of the expenses are being j made, and the question will soon be j settled. A Troubled Family. A Louisville paper announces this: j Mr. and Mrs. Lane and several children arrived in Memphis, from Mississippi, j the other day, without money enough to ; pay the January interest on six and a j fourth cents' worth of Tennessee bond?, j They took rooms in an old, dilapidated | house, where they had neither food nor fire. On Thursday an infant Lane came I into the world to see how the rest of the family were getting along; on Saturday another put in an appearance, and on Sunday a third waltzed in among them. On Monday?but the wires are down, and we don't know what happened on ! Monday. Easy Preaching. Arthur Helps tells a story of an illiterate soldier at the chapel of Lord Morpeth's castle in Ireland. Whenever Archbishop Whately came to preach, it was observed that this rough private was always in his place, his month open as if in sympathy with his ears. Some of the gentlemen playfully took him to task for it, supposing it was due to the usual vulgar admiration of a celebrity. A *vkA*> a vooflAn on/1 J)Ul LUC LUUil 11UU il U^UVUl icnoi'u, aim was ftblo to give it. He said: "That is not all. The archbishop is easy to understand. There are no fine words in him.

C. * A Want Supplied. The American mind ia active. It haa given ua books of fiction for the sentimentalist, learned books for the scholar and professional student, bnt few books for the people. A book for the people must relate to a subject of universal interest. Such a subject is the physical man, and such a book " The People's Common 8euse Medical Advirer," a copy of which has been recently laid on our table. The high professional attainments of its author?Dr. R. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, N.

Proceeding from the theory that every fact of mind has a physical antecedent, he has given an admirable treatise on cerebral physiology, and shown the bearings of the facts thus established upon individual and social welfare. The author believes with Spencer, that "as vigorous health and its accompauiug high spirits are larger elements of happiness than any other things whatever, the teaching how to maintain them is a teaching that yields to no other whatever." and accordingly has introduced an extensive discussion of the methods by which we may preserve tho integrity of the system and of times prevent tue onset of disease. Domestic remedies?their preparation, uses and effect-? form a prominent feature of tho work. Tho hygienic treatment, or nursing of the sick, is an important subject, and receives attention commensurate with its importance. Ncarl.s all diseases "to which flesh is heir" are described, their symptoms and causes explained, and proper domestic treatment suggested. To re- | ciprocate the many favors bestowed upon him j by a geoeruus public, the author offers his | book at a price ($1.50) little exceeding the j cost of publication.

These deservedly celebrated aad popular medicines nave effected a revolution In the healing art, and proved the fallacy of several maxims whioh have for many years obstructed the progress of medical science. The false supposition that " Consumption is Incurable " dete.red physicians from attempting to And remedies for that disease, and patients afflicted with it reoonciled them ni,.os t? da*'h without making an effort to escape from a doom *^ch they supposed to be unavoidable. It is now proved, however, that ContumpHon can be cured, and that It ha? hem cared in a very great number of cases (some of thorn apparently desperate ones) by Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup alone; and in other cases by the same medicine in connection with Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic and .Mandrake Pills, one or both, according to the requirements of the case. Dr. Schenck himself, who enjoyed uninterrupted good health for more than forty years, was supposed,at one time, to be at the very gate of death, his pbysici-ins bavin* pronounced his case hopeless, and abandoned him to his fate. He was cured Dy the aforesaid med.clues, and, since bis recovery, many thousands similarly affected have used Dr. Schenck's preparations with the same I remarkable success. Full directions accompany each, making it not absolutely necessary to personally see Dr. Schenck unless Cation ta wish their lungs examined, and for this purpose e is professionally at his principal office, iJcmer Sixth | and Arch Streets, Philadelphia, every Monday, where all letters for advice must be addressed. Schenck's medicines are sold by all druggists. The Markets.

Ball & Co., Oculists: Gentlemen?Your Patent Eye Cups are, in my ^^B judgment, the most splendid t riumph which optical science has ever achieved, but, like all great and important truths, in this or in any other branch of science and philosophy, have much to contend with from the ignorance and prejudice of a too skeptical public; but truth is mighty, and it will prevail, and it is only a question of time aa regards their general acceptance and indorsement by all. I have in my hands certificates of persons testifying in uoequlv. \ ocal terms to their merits. The most prominent i physicians of my county recommend your Eye 1 Cups. I am, respectfully, J. A. L. BOYER. William Blatlet, M. D., Salvisa, Ky., writes: " Thanks to you for the greatest of all invention*. My sight is fully restored by the use of your Patent Eye Cups, after being almost entirely blind for twcnty-Bix years." Alex. R. Wtxth, M. D., Atchison, Pa., writes: "After total blindness of my left eye for four years, by paralysis to the optic nerve, to my utter astonishment yonr Patent Eye Caps restored my eyesight permanently in three minutes." I Rev. S. B, Falewsbcbo, Minister of?M. E. J Church, write*: " Your Patent Eye Cups have re- ] stored my sight, for which I am most thankful to the Father of Mercies. Bj your advertisement I A jaw at a glance that your invaluable Eye Oupe per- 1 formed their work perfectly In accordance with physiological law; that they literally fed the eyee that were starving for nutrition. May God greatly bless you, and may your name be enshrined In the affectionate memories of multiplied thousands as one of the benefactors of your kind." i Horace B. Dcrant, M. !>., says: " I sold, and | effected future sales liberally. The Patent Eye Cups, they will make money, and make it fast, too; I no small, catch-penny affair, but a superb, number { one, tip-top business, promises, as far as I can see, \ to be life-long." Mayor E. C. Ellis wrote us, November 16th, J 1865: " I have tested the Patent Ivory Eye Cups, and I am satisfied they are good. I am pleased with them. They are certainly the greatest invention of the age." Hon. Horace Greeley, late editor of V"5 New York Tribunr, wrote: " Dr. J. Ball, of our dty, d is a conscientious and responsible man, who is in- 9 capable of intentional deception or imposition." I Prof. W. Merrick writes; "Truly, I am grate- ^ ful to your noble invention. My sight is restored ^5 by yonr Patent Eye Cups. May Heaven bless and preserve you. I hsvo been using spectacles twenty / years. I am aeventy-one years old. I do all my writing without glasses, and I bless the inventor of the Patent Eye Cups every time I take up my old a steel pen." 1 Adolph Biokxbeso, M. D., physician to Emperor ' Napoleon, wrote, after having his sight restored by I our Patent Eye Cups: "With gratitude to God, J and thankfulness to the inventors, Dr. J. Ball k Co., I h?reby recommend the trial of the Eye Cupe (in full faith) to all and every one that has any impaired eyesight, believing Ri I do, that since the experiment with this wonderf il discovery has proved successful ou me, at my advanced period or lift? 1 ninety years of age?I believe they will restore the I vision to any individual if they are properly 1 applied.
