PRENTICE, AND THE Ksow- -NoTHISGs.-
Prentice, Of the Louisville Journal, does
not seem to be on tho best Of terms with
his Nothing brethren, although he
has certainly labored for the advancement
of the party with zeal and ability. In an
article published on the llth inst, he tells
some home truths. After remarking that
he joined the order with reluctance, he
says;
We have never attended a single Council
meeting, but the few weeks experience
since our connection with the order has
convinced US that no man who has any self
respect or independence. can belong to il
twelve months without sacrificing both. 1t
contains features which, sooner or later,
must cause every one who has particle Of
manliness in his composition to revolt at
the organization and leave it with disgust.
II is an organization which may suit un-
scrupulous politicians to use for their own
self-h purposes, but it will drive from it all
good men, and will inevitably fall from its
own weakness. Not even the glorious
principles which caused its rise, can long
prevent its downfall. True Americansm,
to succeed, must do so under other auspi-
ces, and The sooner there is re-urganiza-
ton OF the party the better Tor the country.

To KEEP SILK Silk articles should not
BE- kept folded in white paper, as the chlo-
ride Of lime used in bleaching the paper will
probably impair the color OF The silk.
Brown or blue paper is better; the yellow
ish, smooth India paper is best Of all.
Silks intended for dresses should not be
kept long in the house before they are
made up, al lying in tho folds will have a
tendency to impair its durability, by caus-
ing it to cut or split, particularly if the silk
has been III ckened by gum.
Thread lace wells are very easily cut /;
satin and velvet, being soft, are not very
easily cut. But dresses of velvet should
not be laid by with any weight above them !;
il the nap OF thin velvet is laid down, 1t is
not possible to raise it up again. Hard silk
should meyer be wrinkled, because the
thread is easily broken in the crease, and it
never can be rectifed. The way to take
lhe wrinkles ou, Of silk 81 arf. and hand
kerchicfs, is to moisten the surface evenly
with sponge and some weak glue, and
then pin the silk with come toilet pins
around the shelves on a mattress or feath-
er bed, taking pains to draw out the silk as
tigh, as possible. When dry, the wrinkles
will have disappeared. The reason Of this
is cbvions to every person. 1t is nice job
to dress light colored silk, and few should
try it. Some silk articles should be mois-
ened with weak glue or gum-water, and the
wrinkles ironed out by hot fat-iron on
the wrong side.-Scieniifc American.

VocALIsrs IN CoURT.--A suit was tried
In the Marine Cour, yesterday, brought by
Signor and Mdmc. VieIti against Mr.. Phal-
en-, OF the Academy OF Music, to recover
the value Of the lady's services, who was
not employed although engaged. The
husband claimed under the contract. For
the defence, il was contendel that Signor
w., gave a receipt in full on 2Sth April,
when he was paid $225, but to make i,
more sure, he was requested to give anoth-
er and similar receipt, in May, when he was
paid $40, also, in full, although no money
in fact, was due him. The question was,
whether or no, the fact of Sig. Vie,ti, hav-.
ing giving these receipts, precludcd suit
on behalf of his wife, and the court held
that as a principle of law, the receipt of the
husband in sucha case, is final as TO his own
