During kil travels through BrobJingrm?. Gullivt-r had heard so much about the kin of this irreat nation that he was unwilling to leave the countrv until he had M him. He I cordingly availed hims If of Um trat opportunity after his arrival in Um vicinity of the palace; and was soon ushered into his maiestv's presence. The chief BrobdhlcaagMa minister, Hon. Mr. LeriaUHUi (whom the people of Brooding na h ive niekn.imed Fish) escorted him to the palace. The two hail no sooner eitcrol the royal presence chamber than Gulliver started back, in irreat consterna tion, seein a dense volume of smoke issue from one corner of the room, and fullvbe lievine the palace was on tire. Recover ing his presence of mind, however, and recollecting thtt he had seen the palace f Lilhput in tl imes, he was ab. Hit to ex tinguish the conflagration by the means that had been so successful in preserving that edifice, when the Hoc. Mr. Leviathan SSSSJSCd him his alarms were irroundless that instead of the palace being on lire, it was only the king indulging in his lavor ite luxury of a choice ciirar. His com no sure was soon restored . he buttoned his coat, and a few moments later he was seatr'l by the king. I le ex plained to his ma jesty of Brobdingtmg that he had come to this country on I vN'.t, at the suggestion of his royal mother, wh was extiemely anxious that while he was yet a young man he Might travel through all the gmi nations of the world, in lean troni experience and observation the mo.le of government best adapted to Intelligent people. He had heard creat deal about Brobdingnag, its inhabitants and its fonm of government, which was saiil to be Um freest and best on ihe face of Ibfl earth ; and. if all he had heard Wtfl true, he should, when ho went home, ad vi-e his royal mother to modify the govlil ii MM i ill of her country to the standard of Brobdiagaag The king said he was delighted to meet Gulliver, and he should be happy to explain to him the nature of his eovernaW. at, which he concurred in believing was the best on earth, and which all nations would follow, if they would take his advice. It was the government, of all others, calculated to foster national and individual prosperity. His Majesty then gave a briel dutch of his own history, tu giaaiag with 1880, which, ha arid, found him a poor man i illustriously tanning leather at a placi c died Galena, and tracing his career up, step by step, till he became the possessor of the palace which (ie diver now beheld, and of a great deal of wealth beside. This was all the reward of hi- - rvices, civil and military, to the country. Gulliver inquired if all who served the country faithfully were rewarded with wealth and palaces. If so, he thought this mist be indeed a great nation, and he would seriously entertain the Idea of becoming one of itscitiaens. The king said no it was not true that all were so well rewarded that it depended a good deal on circumstances. Still there were a great many men who, like himself, had trrown very rich in the service of the country, es pecially in the capacity of civil rulers. He had known men to come here and make laA's for Brobdiagaag, and to accumulate immense fortunes in d ing so, because they were loyal to the flag. For instance, said he, take that man you met at the palace gate as we came in. His name is Harlan. He came here not many years ago, paying his railroad fare with borrowed money, and buyinir ham sandwiches ins'ead of full meals at Um eating-stations on the route. He is now able to buy this palace, and several more like it. Gulliver was astonished at such a rapid transition from poverty to wealth, and asked the kini how it was done. His majesty whiffed his cigar, blew the smoke awav from his face, and replied that it was solely attributable to the virtue of lojmlty judiciously exerci-td. Gulliver said lie would make a note of this, and tell his royal mother alxut it when he went home. He had heard a g'Mxl deal about loyalty in his own country, but lie never knew a case in which it was so generously rewarded. The king then asked Gulliver to explain the nature of his royal mother's government, anil listened very attentively to the young traveler's exposition of the principles of the British C institution hw they had a House of Lords and a House of Commons, and a Oases ; and the writ of I MMN er . i.- and Um right of trial by jury. The king aril they used to have the hubteu rerjMM and the right of trial by jury in Brohdingnair, but l hey had found them both to be dangerous to the cause of loyalty, and had practically abolished them, tin ugh they still had a nominal existence. Lue a great m:ny other things good and valuable in their nature, they were subject to Real abuses, and latterly, indeed, there had been nothing trat abuses of them. Sinre the war there h;id urown up in this e untry a port called Copperheads who had pleached the dangerous doetriue that tli- government had no right to arreat a man except by due process ot law, and that he must Ik; tried by a jury of his pee fa This was all in the int rests ol disloyalty, and calculated to endanger the stability of Urolxlingnag, for of what use M a government if it can't arrest anybody it pleases; and of what value is a regal authority if it is to be put down by a piece of piper called hnax seiyaa Then, as to trial by jury, we have abolished that, because und.r it we never can get a man convicted, unless there tt -timony to show that he Imis committed a crime. "When theeaQM ol loyalty demands a man's arrest, it als deirands his conviction, and we can't afford to wait for the slow process of juries. They t ike time, and must have evidence and summinu-s up, and "deliberations. We have invent d a new thing ca'led a military commission, which works like a charm. For instance, if a man says a word againat the king or his government to nay, he is arrested by a sqaatd of soldiers to night, tried by another quad tomorrow morning, and hang by another quad in the afternoon. The moral Sect Of this is very great. The trial by jury and the writ of haheji erpv belong to the days of stage coache, but are not at all fit for these days of telegraphs and railroads. Finally the king told (iulliver tiiat in these matters he thought his royal mother's government was far behind Brobiagaag; and that if his royal mother would take the king's advice, she would abolish habeas corpus and trial by jury in her dominions, Gulliver said he would tell her about it when he went home, but he feared that, however maeh the Bight l-sire to imitate Ilnnlingnag in this particular, she would be afraid to Ho it. "Afraid of what?" said t he king. "Afrnid ol the people, ' said Gulliver. u Oh," said the kin r, "tell her not to be afraid of the people. There is nothing they like so well as a strong government. They used to talk about the people here, l,ut they've trot over that. A few military commissions will soon stop if When we hear a man calling on the people to ass. -rt their ritrlifs ben, we erred him and dc c'are martial law over him." They n ' i israaatd the boundary and dominions of Hrohdingnatr. Gullivet nid he was astonished in a recent viit t the law makinir halls to hear an act passed for the admission of Virginia to the nation of Flmhdlagaag. He must have been mis laken, he said, in his reading of history, for he certainly usrd to be under the impression that Virginia was one of the orig inaljBrohdingnayian possessions, and that its people were largely instrumental in a Iturhance which severed BroMinpnag from his royal ancestor's domains. V a. the king said, something ofthat kind had occurred, hut there had been a civil war in this country MMe, and although it had terminated several years ago, the people of Virginia were still disloyal, and had to be carefully watched. They were fouad to be unfit to govern themselves, and it was necessary to send to the loyal people of

the North for men to make up their Legislature and to represent them in Congress. There were now enough of this class in

Virginia to insure a loyal preponderance, and it was sate to tak her back to the priv ileges and immunities of Brobdingnagian citizenship. Gulliver said he was delight ed to hear the king talk in this way. His royal mother had a great many disloyal subjects on one ol her islands, lhey were not called Copperheads, but Fenians. When he went home he would tell her what his majesty's receipt for disloyalty was. He had no doubt that it would be a good plan for her to send to Africa for a few hundred thousand negroes, and settle them among the disloyal islanders ; then she could send an army to help the negroes to keep the natives in subjection, and have thimrs all their own way. The Fenians had given his royal mother a great deal of trouble, and were getting worse but he didn't see how they could survive the BrolHlingnagmn plan. At any rate, it outrht to be tried. Gulliver inquired if the legislative boti -9 of Broudingnag, called the Senate A 1 I ease of Representatives, were always in accord with the king, ilia Majesty re plied that this was a subject of great con cern to him, and gave him a great deal of trouble. Notwithstanding all his efforts the people would, sometimes, elect men who were opposed to him, and who, if allowed to take their seats, would give him a great deal of trouble. It was the rule of his government, however, not to let such persons take their seats in either branch of the legislature, except in such inconsiderable numbers that they could do uo harm. He would not allow more than one-fourth of either house to be composed of what are called opposition members. Gulliver said this was a verv grise precaution, but he did not understand how it could be always carried out. HiMajesty replied that nothing was more easy, there was a committee in each House, whose business it was to attend to such matters, and to exclude every oppo sit ion member as soon as a ntimoer coin patible with the welfare of the king was seated. I his process was known as a con tested ekction. " And here." said the king, M is another great advantage we have over your royal mother's govern ment. Your popular assembly, known as ihe House ol ( ommocs, dissolves a nun i-irv, and almost overthrows the throne by -inle vote. When they declare want of confidence in the government there must be a change immediately Hut here in Brobdingnag we don't allow any such interference or dictation. In stead of that we make the popular branch conform to the executive, lou will see that done in the case of Mr. Dawes, who has recently made a speech against me and mv Cabinet. I have given orders to dismiss everybody from office who was appr.mted on his recommendation, and hare t iken such steps as will prevent his re .action. It he should be elected, how ev T. I will have him transferred from the Committee on Appropriations to the Com mittet on Revolutionary Land Claims where he cant criticise my conduct to any great extent. He was appointed to his present responsible chairmanship on the express condition that he woul make it appear ti:at I was conducting the government at less than halt the expense ot my predecessor. He has grossly vio lated his pledge, and an example must be made ot him. The conversation then took a general direction, and included a number ofunimportant topics, which it is not the province of history to deal with. At its conclusion Gulliver took his leave of the king, and departed the palace greatly pleased with the interview, relieving himself greatly benefited by what he had heard concern ing the internal government of Brobdingnae.

The Mysterious Highwayman.

Thk following strantre narrative ap peared in a volume called the " Theory of Presumptive Proof," published some sixty r. .11 years since, ana now not otten met witn : A gentleman traveling to fluff was stopped late in the evening, about seven miles short of that town, by a single bignwayman, with a mask on, who robbed him of a purse containing twenty guineas. The highwayman rode off by a different road, full speed, and the gentleman pursued his journey. It, however, growing late, and he being already much tnghteneu and agitated at what had passed, rode only two miles further, and stopped at the Bell, a road-side inn, Kept by James Brunell. He went into the kitchen to give directions for his supper, when he related to several persons present his having been robbed, to which he added this peculiar circumstance, that when he traveled he always gave his gold a particular mark : that every guinea in the purse he was robbed of was so specially marked, and that probably the robber, by that means, would be detected. Supper being ready, he retired. Hehsd not long finished his repast when Mr. Brunell came into the fmrlor. After the usual inquiries of landords of hoping the supper and everything was to his liking, etc., " Sir," says he, " I understand that you have been robbed not far hence this evening. 4 And that your money N I l,n,-o cir x 11(1 i , on . was marked f "It was." "A circumstance has arisen which leads me to think that lean point out the robber." "Indeed!" "Pra sir, what time in the evening was it F " It was just setting in to be dark." " The time confirms suspicions." Mr. Brunell then informed the gentleman that he had a waiter, one John Jennings, who had of late been so very full af money he had had many words with him about it, and had determined to part with him on account of his conduct being so suspicious; thai long before dark that day he had sent him out to change a guinea Vor him, and that he had only come back since he, the gentleman, was in the house, aaying he could not get change ; and that Jennings being in liquor, he had sent him to bed, resolving to discharge kirn in the morning That at the time he returned him the guinea, he, Air. Brunell, did not think it was the sum e which he had given him to et silver for, having perceived a mark upon this which he was very clear was not upon the other ; but that, nevertheless, he should have thought no more of the matter, as Jennings had so frequently gold of his own in his pocket, had he notuterwarda heard for he was not present when t he gentleman was in his kitchen relating it the particulars of the robbery, and that the guineas which the highwayman had taken were all marked ; that, however, a lew minutes previously to his having heard this, he had unluckily paid away the guinea which Jennings returned him to the man who lived some distance off and was gone ; but the drcumstance struck him so very strongly that he could not, as an honest man, r-frain from giving this information. Mr. Brunell was thanked for his attention and public spirit. There was the strongest reason for suspecting Jennings ; and if, on searching him, any ol the marked guineas should be found, as the gentleman could swear to them, there would then remain no doubt. It was now agreed toco softly up to his room; Jennings was fasl aslaep;his pockets were searched, and rom one of them was drawn forth a pur containing exactly nineteen guineas. Sus picion now became demonstration, for the gentleman declared them to be identically those of which he had been robbed. A sistance was called, Jennings was awakened, dragged out of hed, and charge l with he robbery. He denied it firmlv but cir cumstances were too strong to w.ün him belief. He was secured that nhrht. and the next day carried before a neighboring Justice of the Peace. The gentleman and Mr. Brunell deposed to the facta on oath; and Jennings, having no proofs, nothing but mere assertions of innocence to oppose them, which obtained no credit, was com mitted to taKe his trial at the next assizes. So strong were the circumstances known to be against him,thatseveral of his friends advised him to plead guiltv on his trial, and to throw himself on the mercy of the Court. This advice he rejected, and when arraigned, pleaded not guilty. The pr -ecutor swore to bis being robbed : but that, I m a i i . . it oeing nearly Oari, the highwayman in a nuisk, and himself greatly terrified, he could not swear to the prisoner's person, though he thought him of much the nunc stature as the man who robbed him. To the purse and guineas which were pro duccd in Court, he swore as to the purse positively, and !i to the marked guineas, to the best af Iiis belief, and that they W( re found in the prisoner's pocket. The prisoner's master, Mr. Brandl, deposed to the fact, as to sending the prisoner to change a guinea, and of hu having brought him l;t k a marked one in the room of the one he had given him unmarked. He alsogave evidence as to the finding of the purse, and the nineteen marked guineas in the prisoner's pocket. And what consummated the proof, the id tn to whom Mr. Brunell paid the guinea produced the same, and gave testimony to his having taken it that night in payment from the prisoner's master. Mr. Brunei gave evidwiu e to his having received OI the prisoner t liat gtüm ;t, which he afterwards paid to this last witness And the prosecutor, comparing it with the other nineteen found in the pocket ol the prisoner, swore to its being, to the best of his belief, one of the twenty guineas of which he had been robbed by the highwayman. The Judge, on BUmming Up the evidence, remarked to the jury on all trie concuiringcircumstanccsugainst the prisoner ; and the jury, on this strong circumstantial evidence, without going oat of the court, brought in the prisoner guilty. Jennings was executed some little time after, at Hull, repeatedly declaring his innocence to the very moment of being turned off. This happened in the year 1 74'i. Within a twelvemonth after, lo ! Brunei!, Jenning's master, was himself taken up for a robbery done on a goest in his own house; and the fact being proven on his trial, he, was convicted, and ordered for execution. The approach of death brought on repentance, and repentance confession. Brunell not only acknowledged the committing of many highway robberies Bfbr some years past, but the very one for which poor Jennings had su tiered. The account he gave, was that he arrived at home by nearer way and swd'h r riding, some time before the gentleman got in who had been robbed. That he found a man waiting to whom he owed I little bill, and that not having quite enough loose money in his pocket, he took out of the purse one guinea, from the twenty he had just got possession of, to make up the sum, which he paid, and the man went nway. Presently came in the robbed gentleman, who, while Brunei! was gone in to the stables, and not know lng of his arrival, told his tale, as before related, in the kitchen. The gentleman had only just left the kitchen when Brunell entered it, and being there Informed, amongst other circumstances, of the marked guineas, he was thunder-truck! I laving paid one of them away, and not daring to apply for it agatn, as the affair (if the robbery and marked money would soon become publicly known detection, disgrace and ruin appeared Inevitable. Turning in Iiis mind every way to escape, the thought of accusing and sacrificing poor Jennings at last struck him. The rest the reader knows. Turning Democrat. It is creditable to the Democratic party, and shows the ideas which its opponents really entertain of it, that when man like Mr. Dawes rises up in the House of Representatives and denounces extraT; genre and frand, und corruption, he N immediately denounced rs either having turned Democrat, or as doing sosnething to jrive that organization aid anil comfort.

FARM AND HOUSEHOLD

Drying lows of their Milk. As In most other things, there is a great variety of opinion as io the best time of drying a cow of her milk. Many fanners contend that a cow should be allowed to yield milk up to within a week or two of the time when she is expected to calve, and they do so on the grounds of their having tried the experiment and found it to work very well ; whereas others are inclined to think that two or three months should elapse between the time when she is dried of her milk and when she calves We are of opinion that the latter is the more sensible course ; for, although we may act upon the lirst plan, there is evident risk, and it is perfectly clear that, if persisted iu, the constitution ot some cows would not be sufficiently strong to stand it, and si los to the farmer would be the result. Ve are aware that the constituuon of the cow is very similar to that oi i lie iiiumiu speeies, aim mmm draining from her what should go to recopentte and build up the frame of her! oflapiing, strict attention should be paid to j see that she gets strong and nourishing food. it is a false economy which induces farm- j crs to milk, as it were up to the last moment, forit Is again sufficiently clear that Um quality of milk given cannot be equal- j y good. Cows over-tasked and weakened, yield milk of a poorer quality than ' when in vigorous health, and at the same ' time are more liable to fall into any disease which may be lurking about the place. For instance, the foot and mouth disease and pleuro pneumonia present a formidable appearance to those cows in the condition we have just described, and owners may thank their stars if their stock escape untouched. Whal we would particularly enforce, however, upon the attention ol dairymen, is that they should provide food sumricntly nourishing to uphold the constitution of those of their cows that are inclined togive milk all the year round, and are difficult to be dried oll. Such animals require something more than hay ( which food is generally given only ), and an additional feed ol" ground gram (oat and corn meal mixed) should be commenced to be given in the fail of the y ar, or, at least, a soon as grass begina t depreciate in its nutritive quality, i Cow-, whether in milk or dry, ought not to be allowed to fall oil in flesh late in the Gall or at the commencement of winter. Thin cows are more sensitive to cold, and require more food for their winter keep than they do when commencing the season with a good coat of flesh. It is always less expensive to get stuck in condition during warm weather or before winter sets in, and it is, therefore, very poor economy to allow deep milkers to run down thin late in the fall, as it often entails a good deal of careful nursing all the winter through, in order to bring the animals safely over to grass. In drying c nwa of their milk, attention ah Kdd be given that all the milk be drawn from the udder at any one milking. Some are in the habit of only partially drawing the milk from time to time when drying off COWS. It is not a good practice, as the milk left in the udder becomes thick and putrid, causing irritation and inflammation, and not on frequently results in the loss of a teat or a portion of the bag the next season. When cows are being dried off they should be examined every lew days, and their udders completely emptied of all ac cumulated milk ; and with cows supposed to he dry, their teats should be tried at I hast once a week all winter, to see if there l-any accumulation ot Hula. c have had serious losses ourselves from trusting to hired help in thl matter, and taking it for granted that it had been properly attended to.

six feet wide. It is exceedingly rare that a hog shows such an average increase as the one first named. Taking our Eastern spring pigs, they are generally killed at from nine to ten months old. and the irpncral avcrcrf is not over two hnndredand fifty pounds--. growth of less than a pouad a day V e believe that our farmers could save quite a considerable snm by a more careful and generous feeding of their hogs. The general plan is to " keep them along" during the summer with slops, sour milk, etc., waiting till fall before feeding much grain ; whereas meal fed from the day the pig is four weeks old till the day it is killad, all that it will bear and keep healthy, is money well invested. There can be no iiiestion about 'he matter if corn can be b()U,ht for t o0 a bushel, and pork brings twclve centg a poun(1 rthvnnd IoK USEFUL RECIPES, ETC. As old Boston doctor says : " A house whose estrace smells musty is dangerous. Avoid it. Don't live in it. Keep the children out of it." Abb cooked dishes that it is wished to cool before using should be set in the pure fresh air. It will preserve their flavor unimpaired; otherwise not. A corresi onobnt of the Cincinnati Gaeatb says the best feed to fatten a hog rapidly is made as follows: Two parts barley, two of cern, one of oats ; grind, coek and then feed cold. A correspondent of the Rural Neir Yorker says that he can make 50 pounds more butter from a cow during the season by cnurning all the milk than by churning the cream alone. 41 Ruuat," writes to the Chicago Tribune that the practice of placing manure in small heaps in the field, to be spread in the spring, is a bad one. He thinks it much better to spread it at the time of carting it out. Learn to insure your principles against the influence of ridicule. You can no more exercise your reason if you live in the constant dread of laughter, than you can enjoy your life if you live in the constant terror of death. Work the buttermilk out ef your butter, but work it mildly, so as not to break the grain and make grease of it. It you are wise you will pack away your butter in can vessels, scouring and cleanliness throughout in making, and cover with salt and water a simple thing, but it must be done. The American Farm Book mentions a horse that died at sixty-seven years of age, and another that was quite coltish in his forty-fifth year. These cases of longevity were doubtless the results ef good care It is never economy to put s horse to thf utmost of his str np-th to obtain a crret amount of work, of to feed snarinfdv in order to save provender. m. rs j At a meeting of the Deerfield (N. II.) Fanner's Cluh, Mr. David Garrish said that the hearing -ear of a fruit tree may be changed hy picking off the blossoms one year, so that it will bear the next. The bearing year of a tree depends much on the year it was grafted. He had a Porter apple tree which bore fruit on one half of the tree one year, and on the other half the next year. Roof felting wound around the body of trees, tied with a string at the top and bottom, is a sure protection against mice. If too much heat is feared from the color, it can be changed with a whitewash brush on a thousand trees in one day. Cut the felting in strips long enough to protect the trees where the snow drifts, and wide enough to go around the body; leave no space between it and the ground, and yeu have a jacket that no mouse or insect will bji i through. Exchange, A roRKEsi'ONDF.NT of an Eastern paper, referring to t he fact that pork in sometimes found of a yellow color, says that it results from the too free use of corn for food. lie says that about the time hogs are finished off, fanners otten make a mistake in feeding too much unmixed grain. The result is had digestion and yellow fat. Mixed feed should be given to the last roots. pumpkins, apple?, with corn. As a rule, . i y u can get tnemto eat more grain ami take on more flesh than by a diet of rich food only. The Western Stock Journal savs the very best food for milch cows is wheat bran. Nothing has so great a tendency j t increase the flow of milk, and as it j abounds in phosphstes, it is a highly nutritious and healthful diet. Give the cows all they will eat of it, and if convenicnt mix a little corn meal with it. Don't over feed, but give just what they will tick up with a relish, ?tiul you will be rewarded with an abundant supply of milk, and your cows will keep in good conditiou. A correspondent of the Freeport J'i'rt!"i says : A few years ago I made an experiment that fully satisfied me in regard to the way to apply manure. I had a piece of ground which I intended to put in wheat next year. It was plowed in the USUaJ manner. In the fall I hauled out five or six loads of fine manure, and spread it on about an acre. Th e piece of ground about eight acres was sowed in wheat the next spring, and at harvest it m. A m Am m m m i clover this last summer. Swkkt On. Ko i Poisons.

I heard of it and carried the oil, and gave one spoonful, which effected a cure. It is an antidote for arsenic and strychnine. It will cure bloat in cattle by eating too freely of fresh clover ; it will cure bites of bees, spiders, or other insects, and will cure persons who have been poisoned by a low running vine in the meadows, call ed ivy. Ohio Farmer. Colloquy about Growing Stock. " Wut is it that you always sell stock so high V" asked one farmer of another. " It is because I always keep them in good condition." " Hut, if you put them iii condition just before you sell them, why Is it not equally well or better, as it saves fodder'' " But it does not save fodder. What fodder is eaten goes to I make flesh, and it is that which sells your J stock." " I can't sre the object in keeping your stock fat all idong !" " It is because : the stock gTOWl all along ; you frei it so inueh larger and liner, for W hat you miss in UM growth ot un animal ts lost forever ; you can never recover it, mind you. This Ii the advantage ; it is something of a secret ; or the people general ly will not bettete it. The men who have the fat stock and get the big prices, they know it ; thay art on the principle." M Perhaps." "It is so with all stock ; there is no exception. It you want the best success you nust begin when the animal is born he is then in your hands to maks large or small, saleable or unsaleable, lie is to grow ; and it is the food Hint makes him grow ; nothing else. If you scrimp him be will be puny. You must begin to fat your hog when the pig is horn. Or do you think that nature will perfect your animal without the proper quantity of food ? It is the food that does it sn.l nothing else. If little, there nan br but little ; If more, there must lie more growth.'1 "Tea, it will make fat, but not 1 dev. Ion muscle,' a" the hog." " What Iben Ifnol ensnsgh OmhI is given to deyclop muscle, only to 1 small extent , just enough to continue life f " Then; will, In my estimation, be about the same height and length to the animal ; he will he thtn ; he wtfl hick fat but I think his frame will be there about the same." "Hut

suppose there is not food enough to make the frame make it as large as you say ?" M In that case the animal would probably die. He might live and not be quite so large, but I think he would grow the longer ; it would take him the longer to

get to maturity." "The difference be tween us, I see, is, you are bound to sell for low prices as usual. Good day !" Uiica Herald. Sovel Use of Feather Beds. Most of our readers who have ever spent a winter night in the houses of any of our German citizens, will remember how comfortably they reposed between two feather beds ; one below for the purpose of affording a soft couch to lie on, and another above, as a protection against the cold. It seems rather strange" that this custom introduced from the" Rhine land is not copied by our own people, since a less weight of feathers than of almost any other material is sufficient to afford abundant warmth to the sleeper. Nature I plan far keeping birds warm, by surrounding them with feathers, has never been much improved on in all our appliances for coverings by day or night. The substances that affords most warmth as clothing, are those that contain most air, in which respect there is hardly anything that is the equal of feathers. But it is not of the feather bed as a night covering for sleeping persons, however excellent it may be for that purpose, that We proposed to speak. We lately heard of its employment for quite another purpose, which struck us very favorably. A Danish gentleman informs us that in the north st Europe the feather bed plays a very important part in the raisins: of bread The paste for the morning's baking is pre pared the atlernoon before, by putting the flour, yeast, and other ingredients in a deep wooden bowl or tray ; and when the fermenting process has well commenced, the vessel, with its contents, is placed on a feather bed. A frame of sticks, or wire sieve is now put over the bowl, and above this is spread a clean a. a i rf-v i a a a towei or napKin. one ena oi the bed is now brought over the covered vessel, and the sides tucked in about it as carefully as you would arrange the cietnes about a sleeping child. In the morning, the paste will be found to be as light as a sponge, with never a failure if the temperature of the sponge was right when it was put to bed. 1 he philosophy of this action is very easily explained. Yeast is only effective in causing paste to rise between certain degrees of temperature. It is hard to keep it at the desired heat in winter, without a great deal of care and watching. If, how ever, the paste is surrounded by non-con- ; ducting substances, like wool and feathers, the heat, which is produced by the fermentation, will be sufficient to keep the ; process going on. Doubtless, a box of the requisite size to hold the vessel of paste might be fitted with a lining stuffed nll icoinua ail iucj, Liiai ouiu answer the purpose of the bed equally "ell, and which would be at the same time more convenient Prairie Farmer. Coin and Currency. Republican newspapers commenting on the opinion of Chief Justice Chase on the validity of the Legal-Tender act, can readily see why a debt contracted to be paid in coin should not be paid in a depreciated paper currency. Such action gives to the creditor less that he lent. It violates the contract, and is altogether unjust. The same newspapers can understand why debts made since the passage of the Legal-Tender act should be paid in currency. To require coin would require from the elebtor a much greater amount than he received, or than he agreed to pay, and would be altogether cruel and outrageous. All this is so plain that it seems to be an affectation of simplicity and childishness to state it, and yet, clear as it is, and true beyond all doubt or cavil, the very news papers reasoning thus cannot see why the five-twenty bonds outrht to be paid in currency. What clears their perceptions in the one instance and darkens them in the other? The bonds were issued since the passage of the Legal Tender act. Treasury notes were received for them. The contract was to pay them in Treasury notes, and this agreement was so explicit thai there could be no misunderstamlimr concerning it. What justice is there in reqniring their payment in coin? Who will answer? Chicago Times Western Patents.
