REVlVAL.IN CHICAGO.

For nearly a month past, the Prcsbvte-
rian and Methodist Churches have had
meetings, and an unusual degree Of re
ljgious excitement now prevails among
Us. The religious exercises OF the Pres
byterian Church are principally conducted
by the Rev. Mr. Gallaher, an tinerant
rcvivaljst with the assistance of Rev. Mr..
Bascom the pastor of the Church. Those
of the Methodist, by the Rev. Mr.. Crews,
the pastor, and presiding elder Mitchell.
The fruits of this religious interest, as IA:
rs present appears are-that over one hun
dred persons Joined the Presbyterian
Church on Sunday last, about one hundred
OF whom were new conreriS. There have
teen so new converts 10 the Methodist
Church. and several persons were baptized
on Sunday last by the Rev Mr.. Hinton Of
the Baptist Church.
The spacious house Of the Presbyterians
is crowded nightly, and our whole city
now presents emphatjcaliy the Interesting
spectacle Of Church-going people. Mr..
Gallaher, who has been preaching every
evening for several weeks, and who has
remarkably successful powers of persua-
sion, has concluded to stay rs long as ia
vorabIe indications are presented, and both
the Churches mentioned will keep up their
exercises, probably, till those indications
cease, or suffer to relapse.
The Rev Mr.. Hinton, still continues. we
believc'h his admirable andunsurpaSsed Lee
lures on the Prophecies, and the Episcopal
and Unitarian Churches move on in the
''even tenor OF their way" with their usu-
al soemnity and order
"By their fruits We shall know them"

Sin guiar Suicide. The New Haven

found in the barn, suspended by the neck,
and quite dead.
a jury was forthwith summoned, and a
verdict OF suicide was rendered. 1t is a
most remarkable case, and the more so

neck, and slid down from the hay-mow.-
Various reasons have been conjeCtnrcd as

but nothing is satisfactorily known. Some
suppose she did moi mean'to take her life
The affair has caused very great sensa-
ton and gloom in the village.

Mi1'cautee.-Thc prospects Of Mi!wau-
kee were never more cheering than at pre-
sent. Through all the depressions and Vi
cissitudes Of hard times she has held her
own, and no permanent elimination OF
population has taken place. Her march
has IN fact been constantly onward, amid
all the changes and difficulties which have
betaIlen the new towns and villages Of the,
west for the past four years. Our present
population is near $500, and although we
get no appropriation for harbor as yet.
still the number is constantly increasing.
There are now about 40 new dwellings
and stores already commenced, which Will
be completed early in the summer. A
dam Is being built across the river at the
north line OF the town, which will furnish
hydraulic power 70 an almost unlimited
extent Three Brick-kilns will be in OPP
Grafton as soon as the Spring opens. In
addition 10 this there is almost a certainty
that loan will be obtained, to enable the
company to prosecute the canal, which will
give US facilities for greater business du-
ring the approaching summer than ever
before Milwaukee Sentinel.

Working BUHer.-It has been a custom
in our family, time out Of mind, not 10 use
any water in working butter, under the i'm
preston that the latter would be injured by
such contact, and disposed TO become ran
cid. Instead therefore Of washing out the
buuermilk, il is carefully worked out with
a wooden lade. The following extract
from the account of the IIolstein dairy sys-
tenn lately copied into the Genessee Farmer
will explain the whole affair. We copy it
again lest some Of our readers might pass
il without notice;
The churning being completed, the but
ter is taken off by means Of large wood
en- ladle and carried in tub directly TO the
butter cellar, where in a large trough, very
smoothly polished off inside, and provided
with a plug hole at the lower extremity,
the butter is slightly worked and sailed
with the purcst salt; then moulded with a
wooden ladle into 4 mass al the upper end
of the trough, and lett for some hours to
drain. In the evening it is thoroughly
beat or rather slapped.
The butter in HoI>tein is seldom if ever
washed, as water is believed not only to
rob it of It's richness and flavor, but as being
itself susceptible Of putrelaction. and mi
mica 10 the preservation of the butter.

4 Var Sign.-The London Cores
Pondent Of the N. York Signal writes in a
postscript.
:" have just learned that the Four Pow
ers are 50 indignant at the extensive war
like preparations which France continues
to make, Notwithstanding all their remcn-
strances against Theirs, and in the teeth
OF the pacific assurances given both by
Louis Philippe and NJ. Guizot, that is she
persists much longer in heI present course,
the consequence will be an open rupture
with the other powers"
1t should be remembered that in the
speech of the Queen of England, no allu-
sion whatever IS made to the relations be-
tween Great Britain and France. The
Journal de Debats thus alIudes 10 the omis-
sion.
In late number Of that paper, howev-
cr. we find it in more satisfied tone
thus.
While the French press and Paria-
mcnt declare that France is humbIe& and
degraded, the English press and Parla-
ment represent US strong, great and res
pccIcd as ever. Thus the foreigner is
more French than ourselves, and provides
US with the modesty, the dignity, and the
patriotism which we may have not shown
ourselves. What particularly attracts our
attention is the unanimity with which men
OF all parties, withau; any eXception-To-
ries, Wings, and RadicaIs-express their
regret TO see II separated from England and
Europe, and their desire to see it re-enter
on honorable terms into the European con-
lcdcration.'

Porerty.-It is an honor 20 be rich and
no disgrace 10 be poor; therefore it it ex-
ceedingly foolish TO strive after the appea-
rance of wealth, if we are poor, and TO be
ashamed OF the poverty which circumstan-
ces have brought upon US. This folly is a
source of continual misery, and is seldom
productive of any good.
