Soda Cake.?Four eggs, one pint
sugar, one tea-cup butter, one cup
sweet milk, one quart flour, one teaspoonful
soda, two cream tartar.
Qcixce Pcdding.?Stew and strain
eight quinces. Add half pound sugar,
Bix eggs, a pint of milk or cream.
Season or not, as may be preferred.
Bake in a dish lined and ornamented
with pastry.
Keeping Honey.?To keep honey all
the year round, let it run through a
sieve to separate it from particles of
wax, then boil it gently in an earthen I
vessel, skim off the foam whicn gathers
on top and cool it in jars. After cooling
these lightly set them away in a '
cool cellar.
Treatment of Calicoes.? Calicoes
often fade simply because they are impioperly
washed. To insure their not
ffuliuc. infuse three eills of salt into !
four quarts of water ; put the calico in
while it is hot, and let it remain there
until cold. By this means the colors of
the goods are made permanent, and will |
not fade by subsequent washings.
To Mend China.?Take a very thick
solution of gum arabic in water, and
stir into it plaster of Paris, until the
mixture is of a proper consistency.
Apply it with a brush to the fractured
edges of the china, and stick them together.
In three days the articles cannot
be broken in the same place. The
whiteness of the cement renders it
doubly valuable.
To Japan Old Tea Trays.? First
clean them thoroughly with soap and
water, and a little rottenstone ; then
dry them bjr wiping and exposure at
the fire. Now get some good copal
varnish, mix it with some bronze powder,
and apply with a brush to the denuded
parts. After which set the tray
in an oven at a heat of 212 or 300 de- |
grees until the varnish is dry. Two
coats will make it equal to new.
Baked Potatoes.?Have tliem nearly
of a size, or so carefully graduated that
all shall require about the same length
of time for cooking. Bake quickly,
and yet without burning. Toward the
last, watch them very closely, and try
them by feeling them through a towel;
and as fast as they are done, squeeze
them until the skin breaks and lets out
the steam ; then lay them in a hot dish,
cover with a folded towel, and serve as
soon as possible.
Preserving Eogs.?J. C. Higgins,
Delhi Mills, Mich., writes : Dip them
in boiling hot water, taking out immediately,
then lay them in fresh salt,
separate from each other, small end
down. To my certain knowledge, eggs
that were packed ufter this plan last
summer were as fresh apparently when
usd in April last as when laid. I know
one woman who sold a hundred dozen
at one time, during the winter, when
they were high, that were put down duing
the summer in this wav ; the'*' were
all good."
3Iice In Orchard!.
The Germantown Telegraph commends
the following way of preventing
the ravages of mice among young trees
in the orchard:
"There was a great deal said last
spring of the injury done to vouug apple-trees
during last winter by mice,
and the ouly remedy that wo have yet
seen suggested is to stamp the snow
firmly around the trees. This is, however,
not believed to be a remedy at all,
and we doubt if it is of much advantage.
But our method iB a remedy, and
we have tried to impress the fact upon
our contemporaries for the past twenty
years, but we should say, judging from
their ignorance in answering imploring
correspondents what they must do to
save their trees, that it has received
but little attention from many quarters.
"It is simply to bandage up the
stems of the tree with any cotton or
woolen cloths, if of old muslin with two
or three wrappings, letting the bandage
go into the ground an inch or two, and
six or eight inches above grqnnd, and
tie up. This should be renewed every
autumn if necessary, until the trees are
lame enoutrh not to be iniured. Those
who are in earnest for a remedy will try
this and save their trees; but it will be
too much trouble for others to devote a
couple of hours to this labor annually,
and they will rather run the risk with
the mice.
" This method will keep out the
borer also, as wc have stated on several
occasions. Rabbits^can gnaw, when the
stem3 are small enough, two feet from
the ground, aud would require the
bandage to be much higher. Tarring
would help as a protection, but we have
known in many cases the simple bandage
to be all-sufficient."
Washing flutter. Z
A very large majority of buttermakers
wash the butter ; a minority do
not, and claim washing is not only unnecessary,
but injurious. Good butter
is made by some of each way of thinking?and
poor also when washed or unwashed.
At a recent meeting of Chautauqua
County, X. Y., butter-makers,
the President decided the sentiment of
the meeting to be in favor of careful
washing with the best water to be had.
Several speakers thought but little water i
should be used. One man is reported !
to Iiavo made the extraordinary state- i
ment that applying salt freely would
answer the purpose of washing, and
that butter would dissolve no more salt j
than it needs.? Western Farmer.
Parkins for Ice-llousc.
Some substance that will not easily
fermeu: and mold and rot is to be
selected fur packing for the ice-house.
Fresh sawdust, tan-bark, or charcoal
dust are the best if they csu be procured.
The next in usefulness are the
chuff from the thrashing-machine, finely
cut straw or sawdust that has already
been used for some seasons. Fine chips
from a planing mill is very good packing.
Buckwheat hulls or hemp heads
are too easily rotted and fermented to
be used for this purpose.
Head us Off.
A correspondent tells of a county
clerk in a rural town, who had a pet j
calf which he was training up in the '
WWJ3 VI IUC VA j 111V lull lltUAVU kUVUUU (
very peaceably under oue end of the ]
yoke while Mr. Clerk held up the other
end, but in an unfortuuato moment the j
man conceived the idea of putting his
own neck in the yoke, to let the calf see j
how it would "seem to work with a
partner. This frightened mister calf,
and elevating his tail and his voice he
struck a "dead ruu" for the village, and
Clerk went along, with his head down
and his plug hat in his hand, straining
every nerve to keep up, and crying out
rat at the top of his voice, "Heiewel
come, dang our fool souls, head us,
somebody!" j
Bazalne's Sentence.
Leaving, meanwhile, the lessons of
the trial and condemnation of Marshal
Bazaine to speak for themselves, says
the New York Times, it may be well to
explain the grounds on which he was
arraigned by the Council of War, which
the evidence taken before that council
tended to establish, and from which the
sentence of death followed as a natural
consequence. The military law of
France is several centuries old, and re
mains to-day pretty much in the same
form as it had in the ago of Louis XIV.
It absolutely prohibits the commander
of a fortress from negotiating with the
enemy ; it is equally explicit in forbidding
a General to concern himself with
politics, and the capitulation of an
army is held in all cases to be utterly
unjustifiable. These provisions logically
follow from the idea of the functions
of the Government that the military
officer serves, and to whom alone
it belongs to enter into negotiations,
and to determine the force of political
considerations. Under these three
heads Bazaine's guilt has been fully established.
His offense would have been
technically as great had he commanded
the least important of tho strong places
of France. But it is, of course, impossible
to regard his crime apart from the
fact that he was intrusted with the very
key of the destinies of France ; that the
army under his command was the only
fully organized one at the service of tne
Government, and that, though the surrender
at Sedan preceded that of Metz,
it was owing to Bazaine's weakness and
duplicity that MacMahon was induced
to direct his march toward Montmedy,
and that two armies fell into the trap
prepared for them at Sedan.
If the Emperor and his remaining
Generals had not relied upon .Bazaine's
confident assurance that he could break
through the German lines when it became
necessary, the crowning disaster
of September, 1810, would at least have
been deferred, and, as Frenchmeu
tnink, altogether averted. Nevertheless,
Bazaine's judges, tliough admitting in
evidence such testimony to the gravity '
of his offense, have doubtless been led '
to condemn him simply for the breach
of the strict letter of the law. It is
equally certain that their recommendation
to mercy must have been dictated
by a regard to the peculiar circumstances
under which Bazaine thought
himself justified in disobeying that
law. His defence was substantially as
follows : "Up to Sept 15, I claim to
have strictly conformed to both the let- j
ter and the spirit of the military law.
But after that date there came into ex- J
A /?f 4l>irt/ya nnnnllvr noir I
151UUUO u nctitu vi taiugo cijuuii t uvh, i
unforeseen, and unprecedented. France j
liad no longer any tangible Govern- ;
raent, any central authority ; all that
was legal had disappeared amid the
tide of ruin. The law which I was i
bound to observe never contemplated :
such a situation, for it is based ou the !
idea that there is above the General a
Government qualified to negotiate and j
to relieve him from the necessity of i
concerning himself with politics, I
found myself in the position of being
my own government, and under these
circumstances I could not perform what
I considered to be my duty without a
technical violation of the law." Sophis- !
tical as is a good deal of this, it is
natural enough that the Oc facto j
Government of September should have ,
been viewed by the judges of Bazaine j
as a Government dc jure only with
some necessary reservations. Their |
recommendation to mercy can hardly |
t)0 justified ou any other ground, and ;
as President MacMahon is in no danger
of failing to see the strength of these
recommendations, the life of Bazaiue is
perfectly safe.
The decision of President MacMahon,
of France, in the case of Bazaine is an- I
nounced. The sentence of death
against the Marshal J is commuted to
twenty years' seclusion. He is to bear
the effects of degradation from rank,
but will be spared the humiliating cere- j
mony.
Marshal Bazaine addressed a letter to i
his counsel, thanking them for their
efforts in his behalf, and concluding as .
follows:
I shall not appeal against the sentence, not
wishing to prolong in the eyes of the world the
spectacle of such a painful struggle. I request
you to take no further steps, i "look no longer
to m< n for judgment. Strong in my con- ;
science which reproaches ino with nothing I
confidently await the justification which will j
come with the lapse of time and the subsidence
of party passions.
The Conservative press generally approve
of the commutation of the sentence.
The Sicclc says it will create a painful
feeling of surprise in the country.
Rheumatism.
A correspondent in the English Mechanic
gives the following remedy for
curing rheumatic gout, of which he had
long been a sufferer. He insulated his
bedstead from the floor, by placing underneath
each post a broken-off bottom
of a glass bottle. He says the effect ,
was magical, that he had not been free
from rheumatic gout for fifteen years,
and that he began to improve immediately
after the application of the insulators.
We are reminded, by this
paragraph frou our English contemporary.
of a patent obtained through this
office for a physician some twelve or
more years ago, which created considerable
interest at the time. The patent
! consisted in placing glass cups under
the bedposts in a similar manner to the
above. The patentee claimed to have
effected some remarkable cures by the
use of his glass insulators, but we have
not heard from him for some time. Wc
cannot vouch for any merit in the idea,
but it is ouo easily tried ; and as no
harm can arise from the experiment, we
hope some one will test it aud give us
the result of his experience.
Rid of It.
A contractor who had engaged to remove
a rock at the entrance to the New
Haven harbor, left a can of nit.-o-glycerine
on a staging of railroad iron,
which was demolished by the waves
during a storm, and all went to the
bottom. The iron being in the way of (
navigation, the contractor offered ouehnlf
of it to any one who would remove
it. This offer was accepted by a New
York captain. The men engaged in the
work were "skittish," especially the
diver, for fear of being blown np without
a moment's warning. A local paper
suggested that it he left where it was, .
in case any Spanish gunboats should
happen to run up the harbor. The can
was subsequently washed ashore, and >
an old man, who found it, set it up as
an ornament 011 his front stoop, aud got !
a friend to read the inscription. The 1
friend, comprehending the gravity of
the occasion, drew oft' a little, and ;
issued the following order in military '
style : " Take that can off this stoop !"
and suited the action to the word by
decamping himself.

Its Horrid Atrocities?Statement of ,
Mr. Cofflii, of the Bark Morning Star.
About 200 marines formed in line at j '
the landing to receive the captain and the
crew of the American steamer Virginius.
At nine o'clock they landed from j
the Spanish war steamer Tornado the 1
captain and 3G of his ciew. Each man, ^
excepting the captain, had his arms 1
pinioned behind his back. They were (
then taken to the office of the captain of *
the port, where the sentence of death ^
was read to them. They were to die at 1
half-past four that afternoon. The ma- rines
then marched up to the door and (
opened ranks. The crew were then or- <
dered out and fastened together, four (
abreast. The captain came out, under j
guard of four soldiers, and took his j
place at the head of his men. They j
were marched up to the prison to await (
the hour of death. During the time
the prisoners were landing a guard was j
placed over the residence of Mr. Schmitt, j
the American Consul, to prevent him j
from having any communication with ]
them. At three o'clock he was granted i
an interview with the captain. At halfpast
three he left the prison, as the captain
wanted to have the last half hour
alone. Mr. Schmitt used every means
in his power to save them, but only received
insults from the Governor.
At half-past three regiments of foot
soldiers, numbering about 1,500, marched
through the town, followed by a
troop of the mounted guard, and formed
in line at the place of execution. This
is a piece of waste ground (slaughter
house) on the outskirts of the town, (
bounded on one side by a stone wall, ,
eight feet high. In front of this wall j
the men were to meet their death.
At four o'clock the prisoners were J
taken from the prison, having their
arms fastened behind their backs and
irons upon their waists. They formed
in line, four deep. Accompanying each
four was a Catholic priest. They were
then surrounded by 200 marines, and i
marched at a slow step to the place of
death, followed by hundreds of people.
While on the march I had an opportunity
of speaking with most of the
men. They were in much better spirits
than a person would expect. They all
stepped out with a bold, manly step,
fully believing that before many days
America would avenge their wrongs.
When they arrived at the place of execution
the doomed men were placed in
a line about lour foot apart, with their
faces to the wall. The marines formed
a line, two deep, about 10 feet from the
men they were about to murder. The
prisoners were tnen ordered 10 Kneei.
The signal being given to fire, a volley
of 200 rifles were fired at tlie 37 men
upon their knees 10 feet olT. One man
only lay dead ; that was the Captain.
The rest were wounded in the most
horrid manner. Up to the time of the
firing of the first volley I was not able
to get nearer than 200 yards from the
prisoners. The moment the volley was
fired I jumped over tfio wall and ran
along until I was abreast of the prisoners,
ami then mounted the wall and
witnessed the most cruel murders. The
marines had reloaded their rifles and
were shooting the wounded men in the
mouths, ears and eyes, placing the
muzzle of the gun close up to the head
and blowing it to atoms.
One man was lightly wounded. Two
men stepped up to liim; one ran his
gun into the man's mouth ; the poor
man grasped it with both hands. The
other put his gun at the man's ear.
They both fired together; nothing was
left of the head. This kind of work
lasted for 20 minutes before the last
man was dead. Five dirt carts then ;
came up with 10 men from the chain
gang, and the dead were thrown into J
these conveyances in all shapes. There j
was not a man of the 30 who were
wounded whose head was not blown off
from the mouth up. They were buried
in a hole. The troops marched back to
town to a lively air.
Is this to bo the last of it ? Is the
American government to turn a blind j
eye and a deaf ear to this deepest insult
that ever one nation offered to another
? Where is the American navy j
to protect our citizens in foreign lands ?
The moment the Consul was allowed '
to send a dispatch he telegraphed to
Jamaica for help to save life. No
American war vessel was to bo found.

Dr. Benjamin Franklin, in n codicil1
to his will, left his native town of Bos- j
ton the sum of one thousand pounds to
he lent to the young married artificers j
upon good security and under certain <
other conditions. If the plan should
be carried out as successfully as lie

woukl amount, in one hundred years,
to one hundred and thirty-one thousand
pounds. It was his wish, and so oxpressed
in his will, that one hundred
thousand pounds should be spent upon
public works, "which may then be i
judged of most general utility to the
inhabitants, such us fortifications, j
bridges, acq tied nets, public buildings,
baths, pavements, or whatever makes
living in the town more convenient to
the people, and renders it more agreeable
to strangers resorting thither for
health or a temporary residence." It
was also his wish that the remaining
thirty-one thousand pounds should
again be put upon interest for another
hundred years, ut the end of which time
the whole amount was to be divided be- j
tweeu the city und the State. The be- i
quest at the end of the first hundred
years may not attain the exact figure be ;
calculated, but it is sure to be a large j
snm. At the present time it is more j
than a hundred and eighty thousand
dollars, and it has about seventeen
years to run. Franklin died in 1790.

Kenton* for Adopting the Syilem-Whtt | bi
Congrt?i Should Do In Order to Re- j '1'
ducethe Ratei on .llenalri ?nd Newt.
The President of the Western Union ti
Telegraph Company, in his letter to a i j|j
STew York paper, says: " The Herald m
s probably correct in assuming "that 1 JJj
further reduction in rates will not be j i?
nade by the companies now doing the w
;elegraph business for some time to wjome.'-'
The Western Union Telegraph
Company have adopted some uniformi- a,
;y in their charges within a few years
?ast, and made a few other eductions d
n^their rates, to the great benefit of the
public and of the company; but the
public are under no obligations to the
;ompany for making these reductions ; D
'or President Orton, in his annual re-1
sort, informs his stockholders that they 1 p
vere forced upon them from the com- ^
aetition from opposition companies, j w
The have recently purchased the prin- is
:ipal opposition lines, and have reduced j tl
;heir rates so low that the remaining 51
sompanies are unable to make any
noney. Now that this great monopoly
s free from all fear of competition, they 111
mnounce that they will make no further 1 ai
concessions in rates.
That the company are able to make '1,1
further reductions is shown by the 111
Facts given in the annual repots. From h
iheso it appears that the rates have , ie
jeen reduced nearly one-third in six iw
pears, yet the cost of doing the business ; oi
is so much less, in consequence of its 1 5
great increase, that the net profits are
greater at the lower than at the higher tl
rates. Mr. Orton has so often reiterated h
the proposition that the expenses in- <?
crease in nearly as rapid a ratio as the , ?<
business, and therefore reductions in ^
rates cannot be made, that he has
persuaded himself of its truth, and is
unable to appreciate the force of the
facts which we have given. ' c
Mr. Orton truly says that the tele- a
graph is only in it? infancy. The growth C
of its business is much more rapid than
that of the express or post-office, and at t]
the same ratio of increase the number *
of telegrams that will be annually sent it
ten years hence is larger than the nuin- n
ber of letters sent when the postage was
reduced to five cents. The immediate (
increase in the correspondence that followed
upon the use of the five and three 1
cent postage stamp was enormous, rap- ,
idly increasing from 50,000,000 to 500,- i
000,000. There will.be the same increase
in the telegraphic correspondence if the
same relative reductions in rates were
made for the same causes would operate
to produce like effects. The people
cannot hope for such reductions from p
the Western Union Telegraph Com- 11
pany, because there is now no reason to *
induce it to make them, and because [
the loss of net revenues from the great a
reductions in rates neeessary to popu- c
larize the telegraph would be greater
than the saving of expenses on each
telegram from the great increase in the
business. Such reductions can be made q
ni'lop Hio nnstnl tplpfrrnnli RucfpTii fnv ii
""v I'~ O ?X ? """
that will save nearly one-quarter of the ;
present expenses, and would therefore
authorize a reduction in rates of nearly a
forty per cent., and yet leave a sufti- j,
cient profit on the greatly increased li
business. F
The Postmaster-General will ask Con- j
gress to purchase all existing lines of .
telegraph, and built the new ones re- i
quired for the business. The expense
of purchasing these lines has been estimated
bv committees of Congress at r
from $40,000,000 to $70,000,000. I do c
not think Congress will feel disposed, t
in the present condition of our finances, ?
to authorize such expenditure,especially f
as the object sought can be accom- 1
plished without an expense to the gov- i ?
em men t. t
The Post-office Department will fur- ?
uish the offices and the Postal Tele- a
graph Company will transmit the mes- ?
sages at rates fixed by Congress. v
If the people desire to have a cheap
telegraph, and to have the news fur- <
nished to tho press at low rates, they
must support the postal telegraph sys- r
tern, and urge Congress to pass a bill a
authorizing the Postmaster-General to
contract as he now contracts for the ,
carriage of tho mails. If, on the other t
hand, they desire to perpetuate an .?
overgrown monopoly, which is every '
day growing more powerful, then let
them continue the present system by
which a single private corporation con- j
trois the telegraphic correspondence of
a nation, and has the power to give or
withhold news to the nress. and to mold
public opinion in its own interest.
Sncli a power is too great for any private
company to hold, and should be in
the hands of the people, to be used only
for their benefit.?Chicago Intcr-dcran.
Newspaper Postage.
There is quite a stronge influence
operating in Congress, says a Washington
correspondent, for a change in the c
postal laws to restore the free exchange 1
of newspapers and periodicals, and the
free transmission of the weekly papers
to subscribers in the county of publication.
Senator Davis introduced a >
bill in the Senate for that purpose and
favorublo action seems very possible.
There will also be a strong effort during
the session to restore some of the provisions
of the franking privilege. The
Post-office Committee of the House
Iiuao determined to report a bill pro- <
vidir.g for the free transmission through J
the mails of public documents and tlie
free circulation of newspapers within
the counties where they arc published. \
