TRIBUTE TO CAPT. c. Nj. CLAY.


Every just thinking man will agree with
us, that it is far more honorable to de-
serve such a tribute as the following, than
to hold any station, even the highest, in
the gift of Presidents or Kings.-Mo. Rep.
CAPT. c. M, CLAY, as open-hearted as
BrGrei The undersigned, portion of
the prisoners of Incarnation, for ourselves
- and we doubt not all would unite were
they here - take this method of express
ing, as well as we are capable of doing in
rrords, our deep and heartfelt gratitude to
Capt. c. M. CLAY for his attention and
kindness whilst we were prisoners with the
enemy.
When Capt. Henry made his escape,
and the Mexican commander. excited by
that event, gave orders for the massacre
of the Americans. Capt. Clay exclaimed
kill the officers spare the soldiersp A
Mexican Major ran to him, presenting
cooked pistol to his breast. He still ex-
claimed Kill me - kill the officers, but
Who but c. M. Clay, with loaded pistol
to his heart, and in the hand Of an en-
ragged enemy, would have shown such
magnanimous self-devotion? If any man
ever was entitled to be called the soldiers
FRIEND he is. He was ever watchful and
kind towards us, allowing every privilege
that would be granted by our enemies -
turned all orders and commands into ad-
vice and CONSIGNMENT and upon our way
to the city, would take turn by turn, nl-
lowing US to ride his mule, that we might
stand march of forty miles day; div
ded the last cent Of money he had with
us, and resorted to every sacrifice to MAXI
US happy and comfortable He disposed
of his mule, when he found it necessary,
the only animal he had, his buffalo rug,
his watch, and all his clothes but one suit,
and supplied our wants. He not only
acted in this manner towards those who
were under his immediate command, but
to all :; and expressed his regret that he
was unable to do more.
We make no comment upon the char
acter and conduct of Capt. Clay. We
state facts - we feel, but have no lam
guage TO cypress our feelings.
Lieut. Davidson is also a true-hcarted
man. He divided with us to the last cent.

hearts May Heaven restore them to

Music should therefore be almost an in
dispensable qualification and prerequisite
for marriage, and then be cultivated after
marriage, even more than before where
as domestic cares too often drown its hap
py notes. Home is the very orchestra of
music. All women should be good singers
and players, and may often avert the i'll
temper and contentiousness of husbands,
by frequently charming them with sing
ing much. Angels live in song, and she
approXimates nearer to them than any 9TH
er earthly creature. Let woman "cuti
vate the gift that is in her." Let children
be encouraged to tune their young voices
when about the house and fields, both
singl y and in concert, as well as persua-
ded to sing, instead of contendng. Let
boys be encouraged to whistle and play
on instruments, and laborers make fields
and forests ring and echo with their live
ly, thrilling notes.-O. S. FouLer.

PREPARATION OF COFFEE. In Sill
mans Journal we find notice of n me-
moir on coffee by the distinguished French
chimist, NJ. Paven. The results brought
out by his clinical researches agree ex-
actly with facts previously known in re-
gard to this article. A great error in the
preparation of coffee is, that IL is burned
too much, by which the liquid, when it il
brought to the table, is destitute of agree
able flavor, and has a bitter, unpleasant
taste. The reason of this is shown:
Coffee roasted only till il becomes
slightly red preserves the maximum of
weight and aroma, but gives out less col
oring matter. In this state 100 pounds
are found to have lost Is, but have in
creased to the bulk of 1870. Roasted to
a chestnut color, as is commonly done, the
loss is 20 per cent, while the increase in
volume is from 100 to $50. This SWELL
ing of the grain depends upon the prop
ertv which the heterogeneous matter, depos-
tied within the tissue, has of putting up
remarkably when heated.
s.If that is continued until a dark
brown color is produced, and the grain IS
covered with sort of glaze, the loss is
twenty-five per cent, while the original
quantity of nitrogen, 254 per cent, is re-
duced TO 1T, being loss of one-tourth- "
