A DIsCLosURE.-E. G. Delavan, the
world renowned philanthropist, in an address
made before the New York State Temper
ance Society, of which he is the worthy Pres
ident, makes the following statement. It's
truth will not be questioned:
Within few weeks it has come to my
knowledge, that a person whose conscience re-
volted at his employment, in large liquor
establishment, has left it for a more innocent
and creditable business. He stated that it
now only took ten (some say four) gallons of
pure whiskey to make barrel of the whiskey
of commerce. To these are added rainwa-
ter, camphene and arsenic, the latter to re-
store the bead destroyed by the water. He
stated, also, that brandy made to initiate the
real French brandy, and of materials of the
most poisonous character, was sold at four
dollars the gallon, costing only twenty-five
cents. That all kinds of wine were initiated
so closely that the best Judges could not dis
crlmipate; costing but trifie and sold at
prices to suit the customers. The higher the
standing of the customer, and the more par
ticular as to his wines, the higher the price
to satisfy him as TO quality. The most cele-
brated brands were made use of, and the
names Of the most celebrated European deal
ers given, as the source of supply; and Euro
pean dealers, be it known, are not behind,
but much in advance of the American trader
in their adulterations.
1t is no marvel that "delrium tremens
and homicides abound in these last days.
Chemistry is taxed to find posons which Ii
quor-venders may employ in the business of
adulteration. What pity it is that the
Constitution" protects these rascals, while
petty scamps are punished!

HoUsEKEEPING.-We commend the fol-
lowing to our fair countrywomen:
Wewill give to intellect, to Immortality, to
religion and to all virtues, the honor that be-
longs to them. And still it may be boldly
affirmed that economy, taste, skill and neat
ness in the kitchen, have great deal to do
in making life happy and prosperous.
Nor is it indispensably necessaryi that a
house should be filled with luxuries. The
qualifications for all good housekeeping, can
be displayed as well on small scale as on
large one.
A small house can be more easily kept
clean than palace.
Taste is as well displayed in placing the
dishes on pine table, as in arranging the
folds of damask curtain.
Skillful cooking is as readily discovered in
nicely baked potatoe, or a respectable John
ny-cake, as in a nut-brown sirloin or brace
of canvass-backs.
The charm of good housekeeping is in
the order, economy and taste displayed in at
tenton to little things and these little things
have wonderful influence.
A dirty kitchen and bad cooking have
driven manyga one from home to seek for
comfort and happiness somewhere else.
Domestic economy is a science-a theory
of life which all sensible women ought to
study and practice. None of onr excellent
girls are fit to be married until they are thor
oughly educated in the deep and profound
mysteries of the kitchen.
See to it, all ye who are mothers, that
your daughters are all accomplished by
an experimental knowledge of good house
keeping.
