The Farm and Household. How to Keep Cider for Winter. A chemist of wide repute recommends the following plan for preserving cider sweet: , When the cider in the barrel is undergoing a lively fermentation, add as . much white sugar as will be equal to half or three-quarters of a pound to’ each gallon of cider, and\let the fermentation proceed until the liquid attains the right taste to suit; then add an eighth to a quarter of an ounce of sulphite (met sulphate) of lime to each gallon of cider in the cask, first mixing the powder in about a quart of the cider and then pouring it back into the cask, and giving it a thorough shaking or rolling. ° After standing '‘bunged up for a few days, for the matter added to become incorporated with the cider, it may be bottled or used from the cask. The foregoing plan is recommended solely to keep the cider sweet. ‘When the first fermentation is over, rack it off into clean -barrels through a filter made by taking a round wooden box, made of inch-pine plank, three feet in diameter, and one foot, four inches deep; perforate its bottom with numerous .one - quarter inch augurholes,over which should be laid coarse hemp bagging. Fill in the box for eight inches with pieces of charcoal—animal charcoal is the best—about nut size, and on the top of this place a four-inch layer of clean-washed sand, and cover all with coarse hemp bagging. The cloth can be frequently washed without disturbing the sand or charcoal. Before any cider is filtered through, pass a stream of clear water into the filter for fifteen minutes, so as to remove any fine, loose particles of charcoal that otherwise would be mixed with the cider.

‘What Did the Promised Land Flow | With? Little children sometimes give rather strange answers to questions. propounded to them on subjects with which they are not very familiar. On the subject of “The Promised Land,” a Sunday-school superintendent once asked: : ' " “Who led out the Israelites ?” “Moses,” was the prompt reply. ~ “And where did e lead them ?” “To the Promised Land, sir,” “That’s right, my little dears. Now, what did that land flow with ?” ! “With honey,” said three or four. “And what else?” Here was a stick—no reply. s ¢ “Come, children, some of you surely remember. When you were babies, what did your mammas give to you? What else did the Promised L.and flow with besides honey ?” o Again there was a blank pause. ; “T know, thir,” said a little five-year-older, springing to his feet and elevating his little hand. “I know what it wath, thir; I know, thir.” i . What was-it, my dear ?” “Why, it wath titty, thir!” The Superintendent, amid the laughter of the adult spectators, proceeded to change the subject by singing a hymn. ! COrrFEE vs. Rum.—Mr. Joshua L. Baily, a well known merchant in Philadelphia, in order to stay the ravages caused by rum-selling -ind promote the cause of temperance, is engaged in establishing coffee-houses in which workmen and all others who - feel the want of a stimulant, can get a cup of good, fresh coffee, and a roll for five cents. This is a step in the right direction, and will effect more good than any praying band, local option, or all the restraining laws that can be enacted. It is offering, as a substitute, a good and wholesome article, that will often be preferred, swhen it can be had, to the death dealing poison that lures so many to misery and destruction. | ) L - € BN A Horrible Suicide. LovuisviLLg, Ky., Oct. 9th.—Three months ago a young woman named Annie Boynard arrived in Louisville and rented a room, which she and Charles Ackers,owner of a brick-yard, have since occupied. ILast night Ackers collected his clothes, as he said, to take them to a washer-woman; but Annie, who had been told that her lover was false, became convinced that he was about to abandon her. As he was leaving the house she emptied the contents of a coal oil can on her dress and lighted a match, which was wrested from her hands. The frantic woman gave a defiant look at Ackers and ran up stairs. A wild, piercing scream rang through the house, and presently Annie rushed down enveloped in a sheet of fire. She lingered until seven o’clock this morning. She was 22 years of age, and has a father and sister living at Ironton, O. A et} W— 4 - | Gen. Sherman Not a Catholic. ° [From the LaPorte Chronicle,] The Indianapolis Journal, speaking of the Washington rumor that certain parties are working to bring General Sherman out as a candidate for the Presidency in 1876, says, “he is a Roman Catholie, and we apprehend that would be an insuperable objection to his election as President.” The Journal is mistaken. Mrs. Sherman is a Catholic, but the General is not a membgr of any church, and i probably quite as much Protestant fas Catholic in feeling. Nevertheless we agree with the Journal that he would not be the proper man for President of the United States. At least there are persons better qualified by natural aptitude and training for this high position, than General Sherman is. But it would be advisable for these Presitlent-makers to obtain his consent, and this will be no easy matter. o —“—‘—7«o»——— 4 Important Jndicial Decision. An important judicial decision—important to temperance and antitemperance people alike—was made at Evansville last Saturday. Judge Parrett, of the Circuit Court, decided that under the Baxter bill an appeal by remonstrants from the County Commissioners’ Courf to the Circuit Court will not lie. The case was one where the Temperance League remonstrated against granting permits to sell to James P. Hicks and others on the ground of fraudulent signatures to their petition, but, in the judgment of the Commissioners, failed to establish the averment, and the permits weregranted. The remonstrants took an appeal to the Circuit Court, which was disposed of as indicated above.— The appeal was dismissed. i ~ WE have it on the authority of officer White that three of our white citizens, including Postmaster E. R. Bliss, as “loyal” a carpet-bagger as ever forwarded a United States mail or advocated civil rights, on Thursday night of last week applied to be admitted into a negro ball-room on Market street and were refused admission because ;hcyr were white.— Columbus (Miss.)

THE extent to which snuff-dipping is i‘ndu]fed in in the United States may be judged from the fact that-one 3 New York firm last year sold 161,000 pounds of snuff, all of which was of the kind used for dipping, besides more than 150,000 gou‘nds of the: regular mixture for the otd-fashioned snuff- ~ ers, to say. nothing of the large - amounts manufactured in the other _ cities, e ;

KFood for Spiritualists. [(From the Brownstown Banner.]

If the believers in Spiritualism see anything which seems strange and wonderful, they at once call it supernatural manifestation, and charge the performance upon departed spirits of human beings. As our spiritualistic brethren de not seem to be posted upon the mawvelotis feats performed by Arabian magicians and Chinese jugglers, for their special benefit we copy the following from an article in a late number of Harper’'s Magazine, entitled “Marco Polo and His Book.” ' It may ‘be asked, “Who is Marco Polo?” We will therefore state he is a son of Nicolo Polo, and was born at Venice about the year 1250. Like his father he was a celebrated traveler, and between 1271 and 1295 he passed most ‘of his time in Central and Eastern Asia. The memoranda which he kept of his travels were raised after his dgafi;h and published in the book alluded to:

Descendinfi the Pamier steppe the Polos proceeded to'Kashgar, thence to Yarkand, Khotan, Lake Top, and the Great Desert, where the travsler who chances 4o lag behind his party, *will hear spirits talking, and will suppose them to be his comrades. Sometimes the spirits will call him by name; and thus shall a traveler ofttimes be led astray, so that he never finds his party. And in this way many have perished. 'And sometimes you shall hear the sound of a variety of musical instrauments, and still more commonly the sound of drums.” Iwen Thsang, in his passage of the same desert, speaks of “visions of troops marching and halting, with gleaming arms and waving banners, constantly shifting, vanishing, and reappearing.” - Marco Polo and Colonel Yule furnish us here and elsewheie with phenomena. that would appear to embrace, if not transcend, the whole encyclopedia of modern spiritualism. When, for instance, the Great Khan, “seated upon a platform some eight cubits above the pavement, desires to drink, cups filled with wine are moved from a buffet in the center of a hall, a distance of ten paces, and present themselves to the emperor without being touched by anybody.” ' The feals ascribed in ancient legends to Simon Magus, such as the moving of cups and other vessels, making statues to walk, causing closed doors to fly open spontaneously, ;were by no means unusual among the Bacsi, or Thibetan priests, whose performances, if we are to believe our traveler,.might well excite the envy of eur modern spiritual mediums. Producing figures of their divinities in empty space; making a pencil to write answers to questions without, anybody touching it; sitting upon n(&thing; flying through the air; penetrating everywhere as if immaterial; conjuring up mist, fog, snow and rain, by which battles are lost or won; preventing clouds and storms from passing over the emperor’s palace; reading the- most secret human thoughts; , foretelling future events, and even raising the dead—these and many other wonderful feats could be performed by means of the Dharant, or mystical Indian charms.

‘ln this connection Colonel Yule furnishes us with some examples of Chinese jugglery really so extraordinary that we can not forbear quoting a single extraet. Ibn Batuta, the Arabian, whose ‘marvelous account has been more recently corroborated by Edward Melton, the Anglo-Dutch traveler, relates that ‘when present at a great entertainment at the court of the Viceroy of Xhansa, (Kinsay of Poelo or Hangchaufu,) “a juggler, who was one of the Khan’s slaves, made his appearance, and the amir.gaid to him, ‘Come and show me some of your marvels.” Upon this he took a wooden ball with several holes in it, through which long throngs were passed, and, laying hold of one of these, slung it into the air, It went so high that we lost sight of it ‘altogether. (It was the hottest season of the year, and we were outside in the middle of the palace court.) There now remained only a little of the end of a thong in the conjuror’s hand, and he desired one of the boys who assisted him to lay hold of it and mount.— He did so, clinging by the thong, and we lost sight of him also! The conjuror then called to him three times, but getting no answer, he snatched up 'a knife, as if in great rage, laid hold of the thong, and disappeared also! By and-by he threw down one of the boy’s hands, then a- foot, then then the other hand, and then the other foot, then the trunk, and, last of all, the head! Then he came down' himself, all puffing and panting, and with his clothes all bloody, kissed the ground before the amir, and said something to him in Chinese. The amir gave some order in reply, and our friend took the lad’s limbs, laid them together in their place, and gave them a kick, when, presto! there was the boy, who got up and stood before us! All this astonished me beyond measure, and I aad an attack of palpitation like that which overcame me once before in the presence of: the Sultan of India, when he showed me something of the same kind. They gave me a cordial, however, which cured the attack. The Kazi Afkharuddin was next to me, and quoth he ‘Wallah! ’tis my opinion there has been neither going up nor coming down, neither marring nor mending; ’tis all a hocus-pocus.” |

TiHe PREMIUM ENGRAVING issued by Peterson’s Magazine, for 1875, is really one of the most beautiful and costly we have ever seen. It is not one of those cheap, colored lithographs, with which the market is flooded, but a first-class line and mezzotint engraving, executed in the highest style of art, after an original picture by J. W. Ehninger, and cost, as thé publisher ~assures us, two thousand dollars, in ‘all. No premium of equal value, he ) asserts, will be offered by any magazine for 1875. The subject is “Washington’s First Interview With His Wife.” The story is quite romantic. Washington, on his w%y to join Gen. Braddock in the great French and Indian. war of 1875, stopped, with his orderly, :at the White House, sinceso celebrated in the Virginia campaigns of Generals MecClellan, Lee and Grant. Here he met a young and beautiful widow, with whom he was so fascinated, that the orderly, instead of being summoned within half an hour, as he had expected, led Washington’s horse up and down, nearly all day, while his enamored master was listening to the gay sallies of the charming Mrs. Custis. _The result is’ a matter of history. Mrs. Custis became the wife of the great hero, and was known, in after years, as Lady Washington. This is a picture that ought to be in every household. You can get it, gratis, by raising a club for “Peterson” for 1875, or by remitting $2.50 for it and the magazine. This is a rare chance, 48 _ “THE frequent“;l cti Wf Chi :f> ] ection of a Chie Magistrate of the re&ublic agitates the country, and too often threatens its safety. *lt is desirable, therefore, to diminish their frequency.” So says the Washington Republican, the official organ of the administration, and. it partakes largely of a suggestion for a life lease to the presidency to be giventoGrant, 7

Southern Indiana- A DPubious Out- . ~ look in'Business; [Correspondence of the Indianapolis Sentinel. ] - NEW ALBANY, Sept. 30, "74.—A fter SGVE% ys %fi; his peint and a caref jer Vs ltgthebgn;nepifl,fi agricult and mechanical interests of this locality and all -its- surroundings, I am free to say that appearances and information indicate the %most extraordinary . depression in all the industrial interests. I do not base this assertion on any information receivetl while located at thig point, but by actual information from people at the various points throughout the district I have visited. Everywhere inthe leading cities and villages are found men idle, depressed in spirit, wondering what will he the result this coming winter in the want of labor, and the deficiency of the home crop. I have seen this deficiency in crops with my own eyes, and am truly honest in the assertion when I say that the-failure is most extraordinary.— There seems to have been a strip of land, commencing at a point on the Obhio river, at a location somewhere near the southern portion of Harrison county, ecovering a breadth morth from the river about forty miles, and extending along the river through the south-eastern part of the State, where the crops have been pretty nearly a general failure. In most of the locul ities I have visited, they have experienced this failure, occasioned by the drouth, mi% ‘depression among the farmers seemed general. To be sure other portions of the State more than ‘make up for this deficiency, yet it is impossible to convince, as is always the case, these gentlemen who have met with destitution in the .present season from believing the assertion. To speak more particularly of the mechanical interest, in the towns and cities, I find the same depression. This feeling -is based as well on the want of labor, as it is on the secarcity of home produets. Take the milis in this place, I find the men working only a very small portion of the time, and some of them, I may say many of them, out of employment for months. Everything here is dull.

Edna Dean Proctox. Miss Edna Dean Proctor, of whom Moulton said oné hundred thousand dollars’ worth of astounding things, is described as a highly cultivated woman who has traveled almost all over Europe, and is almost forty years old, although she does not.look to be over thirty-twe. She is slightly above medium size, slimy; but 'well made, with luxuriant dark hair,dark eyes of a 4 soft and fascinating expression, shaded by long, silken lashes, 'with sallow complexion, bright and rosy lips, frequently curved in the most winsome of smiles, and the smallest of feet and hands. She is generally admired in Brooklyn, having remarkable conversational powers and being of an amiable disposition. Sherettirned but ashort time ago from an extended tour in Europe, having attended the great Fair in Nijni Novogorod, Russia. She attends:some of the I;ilOSt fashionable parties when in Brooklyn, and is received by the “best families.” It is easy to imagine what a shock Moulton’s statement ecreated in those circles. Her literary talent is well known, as she frequently contributed to the Atlantic Monthly, andis the author of several works. T — ¢ — y

Within the last ten years the progress of discovery in every department of knowledge has made a new work of reference an imperaiive want, The movement of political affairs has kept pace with the discoveries of science, and their fruitful application to the industrial ahd useful arts and the convenience and refinement ofsociallife. Great wars and consequent revolutions have oceurred, involving national changesiof peculiar moment,— The civil war of our own country, which was at its height when the last voiuwe of the old work appeared, has happily been ended, and a new course of commercial aud industrial activity has been commenced. Large accessions to our geopraphical knowiedge have been made by the indefatigable explorers of Africa. - : : The great political revolutions of the last decade, with the natural resualt of the lapse of time, have brought into public view, a multitude ofnew men, whoseé names are in every one’s mouth, and of whose lives every one is curious to know the particuiars. Greal battle s have been fought and important sieges maintained, ot which the details are as yet preserved only in the newspapers or in the transient publications’of the day, but which ought now to take their place in permanent and authentic history. ; f In preparing the present edition for the press it has accordingly been the aim of the editors to bring down the information to the latest possible dates, and to_furnish an accurate 2ccount of the nlost recent discaveries in science, of every fresh f»roductiou in literature, and of the newest inventionsin the practical arts, as well as td give a suecinet and original record ofthe progress of political and historical cvents. S The work has been begun atter lorig and care ful preliminary labor, and with the most ample resources for carrying it.on to a successful termination. S

None of the original stereotype plates pavebeen used, but every page has been printed on new’ type, forming 1n fact a new Cyclopmdia with the same plan and compass arg its predecéssor, but with a far greater pecuniary expenditure, anrd with such improvements in its composition as have been suggested Yy longer experience aud enlarged knowledge. | The illustrations which are intreduced for the first time in the present edition have been added not for the sake of pictorial effect, but to give greater lucitdity and force to the explanations in the text.

Vinegar Bitfers are a purely Veg~etable preparation, made chieily from the native herbsifound on the lower . ~ ranges of the Bi¢rra Ndvada moun- ' - tains of California, the- mediginal - . properties of which arc extradcted therefrom wittiout the use of Aleohol. The question is almost daily asked, | ) “AVhat is the: cause of the unpn: - = alleled success of VINEGanr BitTERS?? Our answer is, that they | remove the ~ause of disease, and ~the patient recovers his health. They - ~are the great blood purifier and a life-giving principle, a perfect Reno- - vator and Invigorater of the system. “ Never before in the history of the world has a medicine been compounded possessing the remarkable qualitiés of Vix- . EGAR BITTERS in lhealing the sick of . every discase man is heir, to. = They are | a gentle Purgative as well as a Tonie; relieving Congestion or Inflammation of - the Liver and Visceral Organs, in Bilious Dizeases gl i S The properties of br.

Gratefal Thousands proclaim VINEGAR BITTERS the most wonderful Invigorant that ever sustained the sinking system. : : No Person can take these Bit*ters according to directions; and remain long unwell, provided their bones are not destroyed by mineral : < poison or other means, and vital organs wasted beyond repair. - . v Bilious, Remittent, and Intermittent Fevers, which are so prevalent in the valleys of our great . rivers throughout the United States, ‘especially thoese . of the Mississippi, Ohio, Missouri, Illinois, Tennessee, Cumberland, Arkansas, Red, Colo- = - rado, Brazos, Rio Grande, Pearl, . '+ Alabama, Mobile, Savannah, Ro- ‘ anoke, James, and many others; . with their vast tributaries, through~_out our entire:country during the ~ Summer and Aatumn, and remarka- . bly so during seasons of unusuaal - . heat and dryness, are invariably ac- . eompanied by extensive derangements of the stomach and liver, and - .~.other abdominal viseera. In theixc treatment, a purgative, exerting a ~ -powerful influence upon these various organs, is essentially lfioss:ury. : . There is no cathartic for the purpecse ' | equal to DR. J. WALKER'S VINEGAR © BITTERS, as they will speedily remove . ‘ - thedark-colored Viscid matter with which the bowels are loaded, at the same time } stimulating the secretions of the liver, and generally restoring the healthy fune_tions of the digestive organs. - Fortify the body against dis- - ease by purifying all its flaids with Vixecar Birrers.

In these, as'in all other . constigutional Discases, WALKER'S VINEGAR Brrrers have shown their great eurative powers in the most obstinate and intractable cazes. oo For Inflammatory and Chronic Rheumatism, Gout, Bilious, Remittent and Intermittent Fevers, Diseases of the Blood, Liver, Kidneys and Bladder. these Bitters have no equal. Such D¥ eases are caused by Vitiated Blood : Meochanical Diseases.—Persc. s engaged in Paints and Minerals, such as Plumbers, T pe-setters, Gold-beaters.and Miners, as they advance in life, are subject to paralysie of the Bowels.

No system of medicine; no vermifiiges, no anthelminitics will {ree the systemfrom worms like these Bitters. : - For Female Complaints, in young -or old, married or single, at the dawn of . womanhood, orthe turn of life, these Tonic Bitters display so decided an influence " that improvement is soon perceptible.’ -~ Cleanse the Vitiated Blood ~ whenever you find its impurities bursting _ . through the skin in Pimples, Eruptions, ' or Sores; cleanse it when you find it ob- - structed and sluggish in the veins; cleanse it when it is foul; your feelings will tel {;ou when.
