birth. but TO a divine &C; by which in the
quickcning of her body, her soul was crea-
ted free from that " fault Of nature" which
all other human beings have inherited from
their sinfal parents.
IL results from this that Mary, NOT Christ
was the first sinless human being-that
Christ is not The only human being free from
sin, both in its faint and in act--that the
freedom of the race from the bondage of he

THE JrsuIrs IN PoLiTIcs.-The hide.

rather serious misunderstanding between
the Jesuits and the Ncapoltsn government.
The reverend fathers, horrcsco rejerens, were
suspected of no less a crime than Liberal
ism Things had come to such piss and
the suspicion in question had taken such a
serious hue, that the Jesuits deemed it I'D

end fathers, Paladini the S'ovinclall and y
others Their joint declaration IS that they
have heard with nueh surprise the doubt
expressed respecting their sentiments in ia
vor Of absolute monarchy. They boast that
they have always preached in favor Of abso-
lute monarchy and they add that they have
done so, not merely from conviction, but also
because the doctors of the socieiy--such
men as Father Suarez, Cardinal Bellarmino,
and others--pubicly taught that absolute
monarchy is the best form Of government
This is literal translation Of their language.

ton they have suffered at the hands of the
Liberals, aud they conclude by protesting

Manufacture Of Rum. Probably the only
manufacture in the Northern States which Is
carried on probably at the present time Is
that Of rum, and this was never before so
profitable as at the present time The dis
tllerios oil through the country have orders
for many weeks and months ahead, at prices
which yield them a hundred per cent. profit.
This state Of things has been occaslOned by
the prohibition Of the dsillation of grain IN
France ard Belgium, which has caused
large orders from those countries for rum
from the United States.
Every packet ship from New York for
France and Germany, now carries ont all the
rum which can be had in the market as part
Of her cargo. The article sells at IL to ~
cents gallon, and the profit may easily De
calculated, when it is known that the molas-
SEES costs but little more than 90 cents a pal- /
Ion, and 100 gallons of molasses will make
30 gallons Of rum. A large portion Of the .

Domestic Recipes.

A Few WoRDs on SouPs.-Th,
researches of Liebig offer a simpl,
and convenient method of preparin.
IN few minutes, a broth of tn,
highest nutritivc properties. Finely
chopped lean beef is mixed with al
equal weight of cold water, anc
left, if possible, to macerate for q
short time, and the whole then
slowly heated to ebullition after
gently boiling for some minutes,
the clear broth separates from the
coagulated albumen and from the
muscular fibre, which has now as.
sumed sinewy appearance. After
stralnlng, 1T requires only to be
seasoned, and slightly colored with
burnt onions, or with caramel
(burnt sugar) The coloring OF
broth is nothing but a con
cession to the common prejudice,
which cannot, however, be well
dispensed with.
"By evaporation in a water-bath,
or at a still lower temperature, the
broth becomes spontaneously color
cd, and leaves behind a brown
extract, possessing a delicate odor Of
roasted meat; it may be preserved
for any length Of time. This ex-
tract, when dissolved in about thirty
parts of water, and favored with
salt, yields, at any moment, a most
excellent broth. The advantage of
extract of flesh for the nutrition of
invalids, its use in hospitals, or in
field service, as well as in domestic
economy, is sufficiently OBVIOUS
We see, likewise, that bone broth
tablets, &c, being preparations ell
tirely different from a true broth
from flesh, cannot compete with il
as articles Of food"
The delicate and proper blending
Of sdcors is the chief art of good
soup-making. BE sure to skim the
grease OH the soup when it FIRST
boifs or 1t will not become clear.
Throw in little salt to bring IN
the scum. Remove all the fat
Be careful to simmer softly, and
never allow soup TO boil hard.
Put your meat into cold water,
and let it grow warm slowly. This
dlssoives The gelatine, allows the
albumen to disengage, the scum to
rise, and the heat to penetrate to the
centre of The meat. But, if the
meat be put into hot ioater, or the
soup over hot fire to boil, the
albumen coagulates, and the external
surface of the meat is hardened !;
the water is prevented from pene-
traiing TO the interior, and the
nutritious part OF the meat from
disengaging itself. The broth will
be without flavor, aud the meat
tough, II SO managed. Allow two
table-spoonfuls of salt to four ouarts
of soup, where there are manv
vegetables one aud one-half, where
there are few. One quart of water
