Corria and Eggs for ths Sick.—A sick person wanting nourishment, and haying lost appetite, can ofi n be sustained by the following wher nothin.' else can he taken: Make a cup of strong coffee, milk as usual, sweeten well; beat well the white and yolk of an egg together; boil coffoe. milk and sugar, together and pour it over the egg in the cup in which it is to be served. This is used frequently in hospital practice. It will be relished also by those who are in the enjoyment of good health. Try it. Whirled' Egos—Ladies, the next time you wish to poach eggs, don’t do it; but do this: Take a vessel of water (a good sired one, holding a gallon or more), when it boils take a long handled spoon and stir round aud round; now break an egg in the vor'ex . of wtdrling water and ke-p stirring uniil the egg is done; which will be in about one minute; remove to dish, nnd so continue until you have a sufficient number; sprinkle ' with salt and pepper and serve. Tbe result will be? egg balls, pLite and round as snowballs, and your guests will be surprised with ‘ somi-tbini: new and luscious.

Varieties of Poultry.

We overhear 1 a remark the other day from an -educated, practical M. D. of our town, to the effect that few's ure-e named in the late pr,-uiiuru list, ot which he had never heard;and further, he believed there were no| three men in thcounty capable of judging fine poultry; This leads us to believe that a short description of the leading varieties, with terse remarks then-on given the readers of this column each week, would be noth accept aide and wise. The chapter will then open with LIGHT BEAUMAS, which is rated one among the best for all purposes, and in truth, fo r general utility they can hardly be overrated, being a breed ali>«e adapted to town and country, though .making the finest appearance on clean grass ruus. At 8 months old they should weigh from 7 to 12 pounds, which is a good average weight for growu fowls. Single cocks, however, when fully matured, often-tip the beam at 14 to 18 lbs, but. not grne in one thousand will attain the latter vtei-ht Light Brahmas should be low In build, well spread, broad and deep, good length of body, symmetrical in form, pea combs, legs well feathered to the end of outer toes, general color white, hackles white stripe-1, with black tail- and prinni.'ie.-*, in winghi .cl, and the under color (dou'ui » blurielwhite. There are but the two breeds, Light and Dark brahmas, though we sometimes hear the remark “White Brahmas.” However, there is a breed of pea comb While Cochins which even breeders frequently misname White Brahmas.

Chicken Diseases.

Roup —Often mistaken for cholera Fire! Symptoms, languor and loss 'of-appetite, the bird mopes about, or basks lazily in the sun, occasionally runs nervously about; next adrycough, succeeded by a foul, illsmelling discharge from the nostrils, tinged with blood. The inflammation of the mucus lining of the nostrils, and the discharge may extend in every direction; up over the eyes, covering them with cheesy matter, sometimes causing blindness; down in the throat and air passages, which appear covered with a foal, yellow, stringy substance, which by its accumulatioh causes death by strangulation. The appetite may become ravenous, but for want of digestion the food is useless and the fowl becomes very poor. It seems thajt, roup is but a severe eold or catarrh, neglected till it becomes chronic. Watch for the discoarge from the nostrils, changing until it becomes thick and offensive. frothing at the eyes and swelling of the face, Roup is much easier prevented than cured. I sever knew a few fowls on a nice clean fresh place to have it; then don’t crowd too many together, and keep houses and grounds well ventillated. If it should appear, remove all affected fowls and disinfect the house as prescribe last week for Cholera, as the disease is highly infectious Give tonic food and use the Douglas mixture freely. Plenty of red pepper in their food is good. Cleanse nostrils and eyes daily with a swab saturated with bromo. chloralum, or a wash made as follows: 1 tablespoon each vinegar and water; 10 drops camphor; 3 drops carbolic acid.

Vanscoy stopped over Sabbath lost with his many friends in Rensselaer, and preached in the M. E. church Sabbath evening to a large congregation. At the conclusion of the services Rev. Mr. Wood suggested the audience sing that soulstirring hymn, “AH bail the power of Jesus’ Name,” and while it was being sung he invited every person in the house to come forward and manifest their friendship for Mr. Vanrcoy, who was to leave for his new field of labor at Salem, Oregon, this week; by shaking bands with him and offering their best wishes for bis future prosperity. The request was unanimously complied with, and while the church was made to ring with that g<>od old hymn, every individual in the audience went forward and gave him their hand and paid him their farewell addresses. It was indeed an impressive proceeding and a fitting testimonial of the merits of the man as a minister and the high esteem in which he is held by the people of hie former charge.

—A sad accident occurred as the fair grounds, near this place, last Saturday afternoon, which resulted in the death of a young man named McCoy, son of B. C. McCoy, of Jordan township. He undertook to ride a colt that had never been ran before. The consequence was it flew the track and threw him against a post, fracturing his skull and inflicting other severe and dangerous wounds. He was picked up and conveyed to the Hopkins house, where medical aid was summoned and every assistance rendered to relieve his suffering, but the attending physician, Dr. Loughridge, found his injuries were of a serious nature, and all hopes of his recovery were abandoned. The sad intelligence was carried to the parents, who arrived at the bedside of the young man only about an hour before he died. His death occurred about 11 o’clock Saturday night. The remains were taken to the family residence Sunday, where on Monday the funeral was held, Rev. A. W. Wood oonducting the services. A large concourse of sympathizing friends followed the remains to their final resting place. The aged parents have the deepest sympathy of all in their sad bereavement. His sudden untimely death is indeed a severe blow upon them and one from which they will not soon recover.

course, exeept for holders of season ticket*. —The town of Hebron, Porter county, has seven preachers find set a single attorney. Tbe ministers are evidently doing good work in that community, judging from tbe fact that the service* of ah attorney are sot needed. « *- —Rev. t W. McNeal, colored, lectured in the M. E. Church, Monday evening, to a good aixod audience. His subject was "An 111-Fated Voyage,” in which the entire crew, ’but Mm self, a white lady and an infant, were lost, lie also gave a detailed account of a three yean adventure in tbe jungles of Africa. The lecture was interspersed with several good songa, and upon the whole it was a highly interesting and instructive entertainment. —The grand jury for the present term of court, composed of John Lewis, Esq., David Newels, James Yeoman, James E. Lam son, Rial Benjamin and George W. Burke, six men “tried and true,” were empanueled Mot day afternoon and discharged yesterday morning. The ju*y was made np of the very best material. Honest, moral, law abiding men themselves, possessed of good judgment and large experience, they were well fitted to sit in the interest of society and enquire into infractions of the law. Their work was energetic and carefu l. They examined some forty or fifty witnesses on more than twenty different specific obarges and returned fodr indictments charging seven different persons with felonies, and five other indictments charging twelve persons with various misdemeanors. The number of indictments, nine, is not large, but from the great number of witnesses examined and the number of alleged oflenses inquired into it is evident these bills have been carefully considered; and we believe that number founded on good evidence and prosecuted with vigor will have a more salutary effect on society than a much larger number founded on insufficient evidence, so that the greater part of them could not be sustained. That the indictments returned will be fully investigated and the persons against whom they are found brought to account for tbe offenses committed, we have not the least donbt. With the interests of the state resting in thb hands of oar worthy and efficient prosecutor, Mr. Babeock, we feel assured that criminals will be summarily dealt with and crimes become less frequent.

DEATH OF DR. MOSS.

Dr. Gordon A. Moss was born In New Richmond, Ohio, August (ith, 1822. and died in Rensselaer, Ind., petober 25th, 1870. His disease was gangrenous erysipelas, supposed to have been produced by virus from a diphtheritec patient. He attended medical lectures at Cincinnati, Ohio, and entered upon the practiceof his profession at Terre Haute. Moved from the latter place to Rensselaer in 1818. March 15th, 1840, was married to Miss Elizabeth J. Saylor. Three childreu were the fruit of their union, who, together with their mother' are dead, June 22d, 1856, he was married to Miss Lydia Greenfield, who survives with four children. August 80tli, 1862, Gordon A. Moss was commissioned assistant surgeon of United States volunteers, with rank of first lieutenant, and assigned to dutv with the S7th regiment Indiana infantry; resigned February 13. 1863. March 23d, 1863, he was commissioned surgeon, with rank of major, and assigned to the 151st regiment Indiana infantry; remained until the close of the war and was mustered out with his regiment. He had been a member of the Masonic order since 1843, and of the Odd Fellows since 1862. In both orders lie was respected for his judgment, morality and inflexible integrity. For thirty-one years the life of Dr. Moss was as an open book to the people of Jasper countv. His profession brought him into most intimate relationlTwith hundreds of families and thousands of persons. He never betrayed a confidence or proved unfaithful to a trust. As a frieud, steadfast; as a counsellor, wise; as a member of society, pure; as a citizen, patriotic, faithful, zealous. Those who have known him longest and most intimately. have the highest regard for him. Indeed, those whom Dr. Moss honored with his friendship, could but admire his sterling qualities that made him conspicuously a gentleman—a man who respected the rights and feelings of his fellow-men. In his death Rensselaer has lost one of her best citizens; one whose voice and thought were ever to promote her best interests. The funeral services were attended at his late residence Sabbath afternoon,and the burial conducted by the Odd Fellow and Masonio orders. The Rensselaer Cornet Band and a large concourse of friends and neighbors escorted the remains to Weston Cemetery.

ANOTHER BRILLIANT WEDDING.

Billy Teagarden, of Minneola, Texas, and Miss Fannie Walton, formerly of this place, were united in the holy bonds of wedlock in the M. E. Church, at Minneola, on Wednesday evening, the 15th instant. The wedding is reported to be one of the most brilliant affairs that ever occurred in that place. A private letter from the bride’s sister, Mrs. Neal Donnelly, to her father and sister at this place, speaking of the pleasant affair says: “The bride was arrayed in a handsome suit of white alpacca, trimmed with new style buttons and point lace. Her head was decorated with a beautiful white felt hat, trimmed with white spangled plush and white spangled flowers. The tray for the brides cake was trimmed with a wreath of white rosebuds, and evergreens. The ring cake had a lovely wreath on it. The guests all assembled at the house at 8 o’cloak, and at half past 8 went to the church. The young folks all went in first, arranging themselves on either side of the alter. Then came the happy couple who took their place in the center of the group. Neal and myself went in just after them, followed by all the older guests. It was really brilliant. As soon as the ceremony was ovsr the bride and groom started out followed by the guests. Congratulations were offered as soon as they arrived houie, after which refreshment* were served. Everything passed off pleasaatly and in order.” The presents were numerous, many of them being rich and costly. Among the number may be mentioned a cook stove, by the groom’s employer; two silver napkin rings, silver butter dish, silver pickle dish, lamp, pair pillows with lace shams, also pin cushions to match, ,four sets silver spoons, set of collars and caffs, set of handsome vaaes beautiful toilet set, center table, etc., etc. The fair bride has a host of warm friends in this place who will unite with us in wishing her and the man whom she has chosen to honor and obey a pleasant voyage upon the matrimonial sea.
