In the mornincr roll out and let them rise until very light, aud drop in hot fat. They are very nice, -after they are fried, to roll them in pulverized sugar. An Excellent Pudding.?One-half pound suet shred fine; one-half pound grated bread crumbs; one-quarter pound loaf sugar, the yolks of four eggs and the whites of two, well beaten; two tablespoonfuls of orange marmalade or sliced citron, if preferred.

Maryland Biscuit.?Take three pints of flour, in which put a teaspoonful of salt and a teaspoonful of lard, and mix it thoroughly; then moisten it gradually i with half a pint of water, then work it for half an hour, until the dough becomes perfectly smooth, then mold it in balls the size of a walnut, flatten them with the rolling pin, pick with a fork, and bake in a quick oven about twenty minutes. Frnlt Garden. Make use of mild days for pruning j grapevines which were left during the | hurry of the fall work, and apply ashes j or ground bones between the rows. | Save the wood for cuttings. The present is a good time to prune ' such trees as need it, as the shape and general direction of the branches is readily seen now that the leaves are off. Where the branches touch, and the bark is injured by rubbing, one of the branches should be cut out, or the two may be spread apart and tied so that they will not interfere. Have ready labels, grafting wax, etc., for use in the spring. Strips of calico or thin muslin loosely rolled upon a stick and dipped in melted grafting wax are the most convenient forms in which to use the wax. Prune currants and gooseberries any time before the buds swell. Keitorins Worcout Soils. A farmer who will exhanst the fertility of his land by raising any crop until it no longer yields a fair return for labor expended in its culture, deserves no pity from anybody. Such a system of farming is far too common, but none the less a disgrace to those who practice it. We will also add that a man who undertakes to make farming pay, while ; depending njlln oommercial manures purchased in the market, is pretty sure to come to grief sooner or later. There are far better methods of restoring fertility to wornout soils, and if is rather , strange that our farmers have not learn- ! ed them before this late day. Keep more stock, especially sheep, raise green crops to turn under, also roots to feed the stock, as well as soiling crops, such as drill-corn, millet, and clover, all of which will tend to enrich the farm instead of making it poor. Destroying Weevil. An old experienced seedman of Europe says: 14 Very often in the spriDg I have noticed thfit the peat beans, etc., . for sale in the stores for seed were worm ' eaten. In many cases the seeds were so eaten as to be useless for seed. The i worm, and even the egg, may be easily ! destroyed by the bisulphide of carbon, a J colorless, volatile liquid, having an odor , like that of rotten eggs. If the barrel : containing the seed is not quite full, i moisten a piece of cloth with the liquor, lay it on the seeds, and cover the barrel with an old horse blanket. The flavor of the bisulphide will sink down among the seed and destroy all animal life. The seed themselves will not be injured. Two or three ounces will be enough for half a dozen barrels. The liquor iS used in Europe to destroy the weevil in wheat." _______________ Thoughts for Saturday Sight. Poetry is tsuth dwelling in beauty. Pleasure and sorrow are twins. Poverty is the test of civility and the touchstone of friendship. Earthly pride is like a passing flower, that springs to fall, and blossoms but to die. As the Greek says: 44 Many men know how to flatter, few men know how to praise." Said Lord Nelson: I have always been | a quarter of an hour before my time, aud it has made a man of me. ? 1 There is no future pang can deal that , instiee on the self-condemned he deals , on his own soul. i 1 He who reforms himself has done ] more toward reforming the public than , a crowd of noisy, impotent patriots. j Nothing exposes religion more to the ! ] reproach of its enemies than the world-1 liness and hardhearte Iness of the professors of it. Praise never gives us much pleasure < unless it concur with our own opinion, j und extol us for those qualities in which \ we chiefly excel. ! Thought engenders thought.

She was a well educated woman, and could converse in three different languages; was refined, and had all the airs of a woman who had the entrance to good society. From place to place she traveled, seeking some employment whereby bread might be earned for her baby and herself. Chance brought her to Keokuk, and W3 suppose being disheartened and unable to obtain other employment, she accepted a situation as i servant in a boarding house, and is now working there in this capacity.

The BKRlnrnR ot General Interest Trans- , acted. SENATE. Mr. Hitohcock (Rep.), of Nebraska, sub! mitted a resolution instructirg the committee j ou the District of Columbia to inquire into the I expediency of providing a proper form of govj ernmont for the District of Columbia, and report by bill or otherwise. Agreed to. Mr. Watkins, o Virginia, from the commit- \ tee on pensions, leported a substitute for i Senate bill to amend the act of Feb. 14, 1871, granting pensious to certain soldiers and sail- I ors of the war of 1812, and the widows of de- . ceased soldiers, and to restore to the pension , rolls th' se persons whose names were stricken ' therefrom inconsequence of disloyalty. Place! ' on the ca'endar. On motion of Mr. Morton (Rep.), of Indiana, j the resolution for the admission of Mr. Pinch- j back as Seuator from Louisiana was taken up. i The Chair laid before the Senate the joint resolution directing the commissioners of the j District of Columbia to pay the interest or the j 3.65 bonds. After considerable discussion the i resolution, with amendments, was passed. Mr. Atkins (Dem.), of Tennessee, from the committee on appropriations, reported a reeo- j tution requesting the President to appoint a competent, experienced military officer to go ' to the Red Cldud agency aud to other Sioux agencies to inquire into the canso of the de- ! ficiency in the appropriation for the Sioux Indians. Adopted The bill regulating the practice in the United | States circuit and district courts was passed. The Chair laid before the Senate a memcri&l of the New York board of trade, shoeing the j inexpediency of attempting the resumption of specio payments before the requisite conditions ] are ripe for it. A bill to pay the Alabama claims allowed previous to Jan. 22d. was passed Mr. Sherman (Rep.), of Ohio, from the committee on finance, reported adversely on tho Senate bill to secure depositors in the Freedman's Savings aDd Trust Company frcm ultimate loss. Laid ou the table. * * it- . Appropriate eulogistic remarks on mo ueam i of Senator Ferry of Connoctiout were made by Mr. Eaton of Connecticut, Sargent of California, Bayard of Delaware, Howe of Wisconsin, Freliughuysen of New Jersey, Tburman of Ohio, Wadleigh of New Hampshire, and English of Connecticut, and, as a farther mark of respect to the memory of the deceased, the Senate adjourned. HOUSE. The speaker laid before the House a message from the President, returning without his approval an act transferring the custody of certain Iudian trust funds from the secretary of the interior to the treasurer of the United States, with a communication from the secretary of the interior, setting forth that the act j was not sufficiently definite to accomplish the | end desired. The message was referred to the ' committed on appropriations. Mr. Lord, of New \ork, from the judiciary committee, reported a bill to appoint commissioners, to be called affidavit commissioners, to take affidavits, depositions, and verifications of pleadings to be read in Uniied States oourtf , but who are not to possess the other powers I conferred by statute on oircnit court comj missionere. After discussion the bill was passed. When a bill granting a pension to Wm. P. Duncan of Tennessee was reached, Mr. Cobell (Dem.), of Virginia, informed the House that Duucau had been a Confederate soldier before he became a Federal soldier, and a serious dis- j cussiou arose, considerable personal feeling j being indulgod in by members. The bill paseed. By a vote of ninety-six yeas to 140 nays tho ! House refused to suspend the rules tc take up ! the foil wing resolutions : fiesolved, That the constitutional authority ; of Congress to coin money and to regulate the ; value thereof, and of foreign coin, does not include the authority to issue tho paper of the government as money ; and, in the judgment of the House, the Constitution nowhere confers on Congress the power to issue, in time of peso*, the promises or obligations of the gov/vrnmonfc aa a lArra] tAnriAr in nivment of debts. ?w ? -v0?. ?? r?j ? ? Resolved, That any legislation touching the legal-tender currency of the government should keep etea Jily in view the resumption of specie payment, and should tend to enhance the value of that currency, for the resumption of ! which the faitb of the United States has been ! pledged to its citizens. Mr. Buckner (Dem.). of Missouri, from the judiciary comuictee, icported back the Senate amendments to the bill :o pay the interest on the 3.65 bonds of the Distnctof Columbia, with a recommendation that thoy bo non-concurred in, and that they be referred to a conference committee. He'made that motion, and it was agreed to. Resolutions were adopted to inquire i ;to the connection of the United States minister at the oourt or St James with the di:ecr.ory of the so-called Emma mine, and with the prosecution of the Machado claim; to ioquho into the i cost of the New York poet-office, and into the j printing of bonds and notes by the Uuiced J States government. The Dill repealing the Bankruptcy act was 1 passed?yeas, 178; nays, 58. After the passage j it was discovered that there was an error iu its i recital, the date of the original law being given as the second instead of the twenty-urst of I March. This mistake Mr. Lynde asked un&Di- i mous consent to have corrected, but Mr. Kas-! sen (Rep.), of Iowa, objected, sayiDg that the ! bill placed the whole creditor class of the j country in the power of tho debtor class. The j bill therefoie goes to the Senate with that im- ' perfection in if. A message was received from the Senate an- ; nouncing the action of t ;at body in regard to i the death of the late Senator Ferry, of Connecticut. 'Eulogies were pronounced by Messrs. ; Phelps of Connecticut, Seelye of MassacLu-1 setts, aud Gaitield of Ohio. An iDtereeting feature in the proceedings was the fact that Mr. Garfield, in lieu of any remarks of his | own, read a speech which had been prepared on the subject by Mr. Starkweather, of Con necticut, himself siace dead. Cutting Hooppoles. I beard a mau say, not long since: I " He got it all cutting and backing hoop- j poles!" This man was speaking of a younger man who was in the act of drawing two thousand dollars from a savings bank. I asked the speaker to explain, and he did so. " You see that young man," he said. " I have known him from his childhood up. His parents were of the j poorest of the poor. His first school books were old ones given to him. His j next he bought with money earned by I cutting hooppoles. The owner of a large I coopering establishment agreed to pur- j chase of iiim all the hooppoles he would bring, and from the owners of an extensive wild of swamp and tangled forest, not far from his home, he obtained permission to cut as mauy cane-like sap-1 lings as he pleased. In the mornings, j and iu the evenings, and during vacation i times from school, he worked bravely in ; the forest, cutting and shaping the i poles, and carrying them upon his back to the cooper's. His first earnings, after ; he had bought his books, were deposited in the savings bank. He was then ten years old. In five years he had gained a thousand do'lars. Then he went at work for a farmer at fair wages, 1 leaving his little capital in the bank, and occasionally adding to it. To-day he is i married, and owns an excellent farm in western Massachusetts, and the two thousand dollars which he ha3 just drawn will make his last payment on the farm and the stock, and make him an independent man. And, you may say?he got it all in cutting and backing i hooppoles." License In Canada ?A bill regulating the sale of alcoholic liquors has been introduced in the Dominion Parliament. The Canadians appear to regard it as i very stringent, though to Americans it would seem to bo far from restrictive. The number of tavern licenses in cities, towns, and incorporated villages is to be at the rate of one for every two hundred | and fifty persons for the first one thousand of the population, and o e for every , four hundred over one thousand. Every | tavern keeper will be compelled to give , a bond of $200 as security for the pay ment of fines and penalties he may incur j | by any infringment of the act. Lioense. fees vary from $$0 to $100 retail, and j 8150 wholesale. I' A Valuable Work. i The Centennial History of the United States, from the discovery of the ! American Continent to the close of the i First Century of Ameiican Independ- i ence. By James D. McCabe. Author of" A Manual of General History,", "Pathways to the Holy Land," etc., etc. There has long been a great and universally-felt want of a history of the I United States suitable for general use. j This want is now being supplied by tho j National Publishing Co., of Philadel phia, who have issued a handsome vol-1 nme, styled "The Centennial History of the United States," by James D. McCabe, a well-known historical writer. This work will, undoubtedly, take rank as the standard history of the United States. It is no dry mass of details?no bombastic effort to inflame the national pride, but is a clear, vivid and brilliant narrative of the events of our history, from the discovery of the American Continent down to the present time. We most heartily commend this bo?k to our readers. It gives a very interesting account of the Indians of North America, from the time of the coming of the white men. The voyage of Columbus, the explorations of the different nations of Europe and the wanderings of the Spaniards in search of gold and immortal youth, are told with graphic power. Every step of our colonial history is traced with patient fidelity, and the sources of those noble, and we trust, enduring institutions which have made our country free and great, are shown with remarkable clearness. The causes of our great struggle for independence are told with a logical force and ability unsurpassed in any work of the day. Then follows a clear and succinct account of the formation of the Federal Constitution; the establishment of the Union; the course of affairs until the breaking out of the second war with England; and a full and comprehensive * ' > < -ii- nn. _ account of tnat war ana lis resuiw. ?ue events of our gareer from the close of that contest to the commencement of the civil war, follow in their order. The history of the civil war is related with intense vigor, and with a strict fidelity to trnth; and the work closes with an account of the course of affairs since the end of that great conflict. The author writes throughout with the calmness and impartiality of a historian, and pleads the cause of no party or section. He states facts, points out the lessons which they teach, and appealing to neither passion nor political feeling, trusts to the good sense of his countrymen to snstain his views. In order to render the work complete in every respect, the author has added to it au appendix, giving an account of the approaching international Centennial exhibition. It is comprised in one large, handsome octavo volume of 925 pages, and contains 442 engravings on steel and wood of historical personages and scenes. The price is so low that all can afford to purchase a copy, and each subscriber is presented with a superb lithographic engraving of the Centennial exhibition buildings and grounds. The book is sold by subscription only, and the publishers want agents in every county. See advertisement in another column. * Extraordinary Enterprise.

The attorney-gen- i eral had questioned the evidence of one ] of Mr. Pike's witnesses on the ground i of the extreme age of the man?seventy-11 three years?and presumptiv e lanure 01 his faculties. " Well, your honors," said Mr. Pike, " I don't altogether like that myself, for I am sixty-six years old, j and iu a little while I shall he seventy, j, and even seventy-three, and I am somewhat sensitive about old men with no memories. I see on the bench before me one justice hearing this case who is j sixty-nine years old, another who is < seventy-two, and I would like to ask with what force the attorney-general's argument strikes them that a man has no memory at their ages." Mr. Pierre- j, pont yielded the point. Curiously i. enough, the client for whom Mr. Pike !. was arguing was Ex-Governor Rector of J Arkansas, with whom he had once fonght 1 a duel. iJ The Dog Trick. ; ' You must entice a strange dog, the i j more unsociable the better, into the i room. Then let one of tho company f take hold of its ears, and hold the dog j still, while another ties his tail in a bow M knot. If the dog has been properly*^ trained, and does his part of the trick < promptly, there will be four or five legs i in the room full of dog's teeth before the final wrinkle is laid in that knot. { This will teach the children to let a dog's i tail retain the shape which nature has | given it. Any dog of ordinary sagacity j can be taught to perform this trick in ( two or three days' practice. A terrier is ( generally considered better for this i l^eriment than a bull dog, because it doesn't hold on so long, and knows * when it has had enough. ] William A. M. Thompson, of Quartz j Valley, Cal., recently started for his . home in Iowa, which he left twenty-five j years ago. During all the time, his; family, consisting of a wife and nine 1 children, heard nothing from him. He is now seventy-four, and returned to fiud the home circle unbroken by death, I but enlarged by the addition of fifty grand children and three great-grand- ! children. Metzler & Co., the most extensive dealers in reed instruments in London, pronounce the Mason & Hamlin " the finest reed instrument in the world." Augustus L.

These are fine compliments for our famous American makers, upon which we congratulate them, adding that they are thoroughly deserved.?New York Philharmonic Journal. American Oenins. Moody and Jsankey. The great revivalists, Messrs. Moody and Sankey, who electrified etaid old England with their eloquence and enthusiasm, are fair samples of American genina. Springing from among the common people, their sympathies are alive to the wants of the whole people, and herein lies the secret of their great success. Those who seek to be popular must study and i be familiar with the wants of the masses, and prove loyal thereto. To this fact we may trace the grand succees in business, as well as in religious undertakings, which many Americans have achieved. Strikingly illustrative of these suggestions is that great establishment,located at Buffalo, N. Y., and known as the 44 World's Dispensary "?a most appropriate name, indeed, for that vast institution, within whose walls are manufactured remedies which aro in demand in every quarter of the globe, and at which a corps of distinguished physicians and surgeons, under tie personal direction of Dr. Pierce, are constantly administering to the needs of thousands cf sufferers everywhere, and whose success in the treatment of all forms of chroDio ailments has become so well known that there is scarcely a hamlet in the land in which his name is not familiar. Its proprietor, says the Herald and Torchlight, of Detroit, "is a man of the people, writes for them, and to them tenders his eminent professional eervices." His adveitisements are earnest exhortations. Like the great revivalists, his enthusiasm is multiplied by the nnparallelled success of his enterprise, as well as by the efficacy of his remedies in curing disease. The people believe in him and his remedies, because, as the New York Tribune says, 44 he sympathizes with them in all their afflictions, efforts and attainments." Hence. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is to-day more largely employed as a blood and liver medioine, and also as a'congh remedy, than any other remedial agent in the world. His Favorite Prescription he does not recommend as a "cure, ail,' as is so often done bv compounders of worthless, humbug nostrums, but for all diseases and weaknesses peculiar to women it has proved itself so much of a specific that it now enjoys great popularity and uuivereal confidence. Dr. Pierce's Pleasaut Purgative Pellets, 44 scarcely larger than mustard seed," have proved so agreeable and reliable as a cathartic that they are rapidly taking iho place nf iKo lnrnta nena/trim rviila ht-rftfriforA ?r? mnell ! wl -w.w.w. ~ in use; while bin Componod Extract of Smart Weed is a favorite remedy for colic, cramps, summer complaint, diarrhea, dysentery, choleia, and choleia morbus, and also as a liniment. Of Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy, and Dr. Pierce's Nasal Douche, little need be said,, as they are known everywhere as the greatest specifics for catarrh aud "cold in thohead" ever given to the public. And besides this I measure of success, Dr. Pierce seems likely to j achieve as great renown as an author as he \ has as a physician. His Common Senee Medical Adviser, a book of 900 pages, which he ' sells at the unparalleled low price of $1.50, { has already been sold to tbeeitentof exhaust- | ing two editions, amounting to forty thousand copies. The secret of Dr. Pierce's success, as well as that of the great revivalists, and scores of other Americans, who by their genius have advanced step by step from obscurity to affluence and distinction, consists in treating the people with consideration, sympathy, candor and honosty. No man, who hopesto attain either wealth or distinction, can afford to deal unfairly with the world or be indifferent to the i wants and best interests of humanity.?Com. j Chapped hands, face, pimples, ringworm, saltrheum, and other cutaneous affections cured, and rough skin made soft and smooth, by using J otter Tar Hoap.

I Every moment of delay makes your case more hope j less, sad much depends on the judicious cnoice 01 remedy. The amount of testimony In favor of Dr. Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup, as a cure for Consumption, far exceeds all that can be brought to support the pretensions of any other medicine. See Dr. Schenck's Almanac, containing the certificates of many persons of the highest respectability, who have been restored to health, after being pronounced incurable by physicians of acknowledged ability, Schenck's Pulmonic Sjmp alone has cured many, as these evidences will show; bu the cure is often promoted by the employment of two other remedies which Dr. Schenck provides for the pur- j poee. These additional remedies are Schenck's Sea ; Weed Tonic and Mandrake P.lls By the timely use of these medicines, according to directions, Dr. Schenck certifies that most any case of Consumption may be cured. Dr. Schenck is professionally at his principal office Corner Sixth and Arch Streets, Philadelphia, every Monday, where all letters for advice must be addressed. The Markets. KEW TOBK.
