NOURIsHMENT OF MEAT.-To preserve, in
dressing, the full rourishment of meats, and
their properties of digestiveness, forms a most
important part Of the art Of cooking !; for these
ends, the object TO be kept in mind is TO retain
much as possible, the juices of the meat,
whether roast or boiled. This, in the case Of
boiling meat, is best done by placing it at once
in briskIy boiling water. The albumen on the
surface, and to some depth, is Immediately
coagulated, and thus forms kind of covering
which neither allows the water 10 get into the
meat, nor the meat juice into the water The
water should then be kept just under boiling
until the meat be thoroughly done, which viii
be when every part has been heated at about
l65 degrees, the temperature at which the col
oring matter Of the blood coagulates or fixes.
AT l32 degrees, the albnmen sets, but the blood
does not, and therefore the meat is red and raw
The same rules apply to roasting the meat
shonld first be brought near enough bright
fire 10 brown the outside, and then should be
allowed to roast slowly Exchange.

Water Proof Paint.

A writer 10 late number of the Scientific
American, who gives the initials Of S. c., and
dates at Lebanon, Ohio, supplies the following
information with regard TO paints, that may be
useful TO the readers of our paper
Cheap and useful paints for roofs, walls,
fences, outside plastering, ETC., may be made
by using tar-common tar or coal tar made
thin with spirits Of turpentine. Let this be
used instead Of lnseed oil, and to form the
body add fine earthly matter, such as dried clay
or soft burnt bricks ground fine in plaster
mill.
The soft skaly states of different colors, like
the " Ohio PAINT also answers a good pur-
pose when finely pulverzed, to form the body
Of the paint. For the coarser kind of work,
dry fine sandy loan may be used as a body.
Any Of these earthly bodies, when made sufic-
iently fine can be used 10 good purpose in
painting either with the tar mixture or oil.
Plastered walls on the outside of buildings NAV
be thus rendered waterproof and lasting BY
using the above cheap paints, and after one or
two coats il will take but small quantity of
oil paint with lead, TO make fine finish with
single coat of any desired color. Whenever
surface thus rendered imperious by this cheap
means, is painted over with oil and lead, sin
gle coat upon the surface, instead of being alb
sorded. will dry in thin tough film on the
surface, and be more effective than three coats
Of the same paint upon an unprepared surface,
which like that of common wood work, absorbs
the oil from the cad Ohio Farmer.

Signs Of Fall.


The curious wind comes searching through the
street
- With bodings bitter, 1tL8iunFf
Whirling around the quick pedestrians feet
Whole heaps of litter. a
The charcoal. man has donned his thicker coat
And gloves Of leather.
And chilly strains, that trembling gush, denote
He's meath the weather.
The shopkeepers withdraw their fragile stock
Of lace and muslins,
Unable those to stand the stalwart shock
Of autumn's hustlings.
Delaines and thibet' 6oat upon the air
In tempting manner,
And Bay State plaids are floating every where,
Like many banner.
And winter furs come on US impoverished
Of fitch and sable
And sposa and the girls, their cloaks achieved
Are comfortable. tfb t-Fs &a
And little Billy takes his winter boots
From where he's thrown them;
Alas he tries and finds that neither suits,
For he's outgrown them.
The vine looks sickly on the trellis high
The leaves all curling,
And every breeze that hastens rudely by
Sets them to whirling.
The old spout, hanging by single nail,
Doth sigh and mutter,
AS if in meek remonstrance with the gale,
That threats doth utter.
The summer birds have left their breezy haunt
Among our branches,
And moved upon their regular annual jaunt
To warmer ranches.
Huge heeps of coal de6le the sidewalk way,
And we, confound 'em, -
Must Ger their slippery heights path essay,
Or travel round EN-.
And many bills thrust in their leech like length,
With items fearful,
Testing the purse whose corresponding strength
Is never near full.
And white hats fade like flakes of falling snow,
In springs warm weather.
And fashions votaries take another bow,
Or higher feather.
The biting airs the shrinking flesh appal
By sharp missions,
And every thing procaims the approach of fall,
Except provisions. POST

Novel.

The following novel method of proving ones
identity, we copy from the Missouri Republi-
can
A gentleman, stranger in this city, few
days since presented draft or check at the
counter Of one Of our banking houses, payable
10 - we'll say John Jones or order The
Teller looked at him moment, and stated in
his politest manner that he had no doubt it was
all right. but, as he didn't know him, a refer
ence would be required before the bill was
cashed.
Here was poser. Mr.. Jones was an entire
stranger in the city, he wanted the money, and
was going TO leave that afternoon, he assured
the gentleman who stood behind the counter,
that the whole matter was correct, and that he
could not leave without tin fact he said he
was strapped. The teller, however, was mex
orable, and said he couldn't depart from the.
rules of the establishment, and that his personal
identity must be proved. At this crisis, Mr..
j., after rubbing his head for some time, sud-
denly exclaimed, can do it,, and at the same
time commenced unbnttoning his vest, and in
twinkling of an eye, in bold Roman letters on
the bottom of his shirt bosom, he displayed to
the eyes Of the astonshed clerk, John Jones,
No. g. The identity was sufficient, and it is
needless 10 say that the check was cashed in

From Mexico.

Dates from the city Of Mexico to March
18th, have been received at New Orleans.
Senor Escobar, who went as q commits
soner to Carthagena, with an invitation for
Santa Anna to return to Mexico, has pub
lished in Mexico his report Of the interview
with Santa Anna. The ''hero of San Ja-
cinton had told the commissioner that lie
would go back to Mexico and take the reins
of government, if the Mexicans would re-
sist to the death the encroachments of the
Americans. Esoobars report, except at
Vera Cruz, produced no sensation. Sew
eral of the papers published extracts from
it after having it some days, but without
editorial remarks.
Everything depends upon the course Of
the government of Santa Anna, and unit
this is known we cannot know if domestic
peace will be consolidated, or if anarchy
will be prolonged until the country is con-
sumed.
Gen. Lombardini was carrying on thC
government through the clerks of the de-
partments until the return of Santa Anna.
Gen. Uraga has been appointed Minister
to Spain.
The Monitor says that the cost of the ar
my is now $4SOO00 monthly, being nea
the entire revenue of the Republic.
The levies still go on, Gen. Lombardin
having ordered the formation of four new
corps.
Much feeling was excited in MeXic
against Mr.. Falconet the banker, in conse
quence of the publication by the Londol
papers of a letter from him to the Mexican
Iandholders, stating that in obtaining tn
expectation free of duty Of the $2,5OO,00(
last paid, it had cost 100000 in bribes t.
the members Of Congress. The UniverSa
says the government thought of giving hin
his passport.
1t is proposed that Gen. Lombardini shal
publish a decree permitting the wearing O
foreign crosses and decorations:
i Don Manuel Gandara has taken posses
sion as Governor of Sonora. His first ac
was to order a collection of reports on tn
damages caused by the Indians, in orde
that they might be claimed of the Unite
!, States under the eleventh article of tn
treaty.
4 1t is said the collector at Vera Cruz hG
S about $S00,000 in hand collected from du
ties, which he refuses to pay to any or
except Santa Anna.
