Rsy~ Ice IIousE.-Every farmer, and, indeed,
every family, ought to have an ice-house, and here
is n plan for Il cheap one, furnished to the Rural
New Yorker, "by L. Mars, of Onondaga County,
Make a box eight feet square, by mailing hem
lock planks Mhich are two inches thick, on to hem
lock scantling. Let one side of the box be seven
feet high, and the side directly opposite ten feet
high. This gives n roof eight feet long, with a
slant of three feet.
1t is well to have the roof boards extended over
lock, makes a sufficient roof. Set this box on the
top of the ground, in Il dry and shady place, where
surface water will not accumulate. No planks are
needed on the bottom of the box, but sawdust must
be placed On the ground inside the box, to the
depth of one foot, and over this place loose boards
for the ice to lie upon. Cut the cakes of ice two
feet square, and build a tower of ice six feet square
in the centre of your box, Tor icc-house, we will
now call it, by laying thccakes compactly together,
filling all crevices with sawdust us you proceed.
We have now q six feet cube of ice, with q space
all around, between the ice and planks. Fill this
space with sawdust, and cover the top of the ice
with the same, eighteen inches deep, and YOU have
ice enough secured to last a family through the
season. The upper three feet of the side which is
ten feet high, should be boarded up, but left for
ventilation, and a place of access {. the ice, and
this Aperture may be enlarged as convenience
may require. while using the ice, and for more con-
yeniently filling in. About eight hundred feet of
lumber will he required, and the merest tyro in
the uss Of tools, can make it. Fresh sawdust is
best, but it may be u ed q second winter. The
dust can easily be washed from the ice at the time
of using,

TnEArRE.-The Real Uncle Tom,' as Jamisons
new play has been very inaptly termed, was pro-
duced for the second time at the theater on Satur-
day night. The play itself has but little in it that
we can commend it is dull and heavy throughout 4;
is strongly pro-slavery, and, while ridiculing the
efforts of those who would abolish this monsterous
evil, it purposes to show the condition Of slaves in
the south to be far better than that of the colored
population in the North. AT the conclusion of the
riece, Mr.. Jamison wac called before the curtain.
and made a short speech de7oted mainly tn the de-
fence of slavery and convert abuse of abolition
lists" lie avowed himselfa pro-slavery man. and
remarked that the sentiments Of the play were his
sentiments. We have no fault to find with Mr..
Jamison's opinions as they are his own. as he re-
marked; but we think a ro.slavery address from
the platform Of a Pittsburg theater was, to say
the least of it, uncalled for and out of taste. lie
should have been satisfied that the audience heard
the piece throughout with respect, and not insult
ed the opinions or intelligence of the hundreds
present who differed with him, by a vapid defence
of slavery, or by snoering at the praiseworthy
efforts Of those who would seek to abolish ii.
Language such MS Mr.. Jamison used may suit a
southern latitude, but we can assure the gentleman
that he mistakes the spirit of the people Of Pitts
burg, If he for q moment ~imasines that his play or
sentiments find favor here .--PiHsJurgh Dispatch.

When boundin chains to the Southern plains
They hurried mo far from thee,

With my own loved Mary Lee.
Through the weary days meath the suns brigh

Thine image alone sec,
And at night | an, in my feverish dream.
To rove once more with thee,

But our liys5 shall pass as the flowers and grass,
When the north wind sweeps the lea,
And know above in that home of love,
Thore is JOY for you and me.
