"PickIes.o

[The following parody on Longfellow's "Ex
0elslor" is worthy of perusal:]
The rain and snow were falling fast.
AS through dOwn-east village passed
youth who chalked with great display,
Upon barrel in his sleigh,
pickles to SELL"
His cheeks were blue, and red his nose,
His ears and feet were nearly froze,
And tears of cold bedimmed his sight,
But still he yelled, with all his might,
pickles to sell"
As on he went, a maiden bold
Came out and asked him what he sold.
The youth looked up with winning smile
And said with voice as soft as lie,
pickles"
"Oh. tell me- cried the maid divine,
''Say, tell me, are they in the brine?"
"Nay," said the youth, "that sort don't pay, ;
Quite vexed he heard the maiden say,
ooh, Pickles!'
That one so sweet should speak so tart:
(The word went deep into his heart,l
That she should crush his hopes so fat,
And scorn his smile, or worse than that,
His Pickles"
Away he drove through wind and rain;
They tried to stop his course in vain,
By asking what he had to sell;
Ee wouldn't stop, but only yelld,
"Pickles."
Don't drive so fast, an old man said;
That worn out nag is nearly dead"
"His shoes are off, another cried;
With shout Of scorn the youth replied
"Oh, Pickles.
"For mercy's sake, don't cross the creek!
That wooden bridge is awful weak"
The youth dashed on his headlOng way,
And only turned his head to say,
"Oh, Pickles"
The night was dark, the wind was cold,
The pickle boy was brave and bold;
He never stopped or checked his flight,
And soon the sleigh was lost to sight,
Pickles and all.
Next morn two little wandering Jews
Came into town and brought the news;
Down in the drift corpse they found.
Whilst far and near were scattered round,
''Pickelsh."

CUsTARD WITHOUT EGGs-Place guam
tity of new milk, as much as desired, over
slow fire, and allow it to heat slowly un-
til it boils, taking pains not to scorch it, as
that imparts disagreeable taste. For ev-
cry quart of milk take four table spoonsful
of flour, beat it well with cold milk to pre-
vent it from being lumpy, and as soon the
milk boils, pour in the thickening and stir
it well until it boils again, then remove it
instantly from the fire. Sweeten to suit
the taste, and flavor with nutmeg or cinna-
mon, and it's ready for use, either cold or
hot. Prepare the crust as usual for custard
pies, fill them with the above preparation,
and bake them an hour in an oven mOder-
ately hot. When sufficiently cooked, they
will resemble in appearance a genuine egg
pie, and will scarcely be distinguished by
the taste. Custards may be made in the
same way, and if baked until the whey
starts from them, they will be nearly equal
to those prepared with eggs. Rice and
other puddings may be made without eggs
by boiling and thickening the milk in this
way, and if they are well baked will prove
excellent.

American DocTR1NE.-The following

AMERICAN DoCTRINE.-The following
will do without any ornament:
"The American party, while exercising
the largest and widest fellowship and char
ity towards the citizens of other countries,
proclaims this grand fundamental doctrine:
Americans must RULE America Come as
fast as you please-occupy our fertile lands
enter into business-worship God in your
own way-send your children gratis to our
public schools-enjoy every right, privilege
and blessing of our free Institutions; but
that these institutions may remain what
they are-that our country may remain
what it is-We govern it ourselves You,
I by centuries of humiliation, degradation,
and slavery-you Irishmen, you Germans,
5and other escaped subjects of European
mouarchies-haye clearl y shown that you
do not understand how free country should
be governed. Nay, by your very flight
from your own oppressed soil, you have APP
pealed to us for protection, and asylum:
We freely render both. Here you are free
here you shall forever enjoy undisturbed
the fruits of your industry and your skill.
Why, then, should you attempt mingling in
the governing Of the country to which you
have flown, to escape slavery and starva-
tion? Are you not afraid that you might
make as bad business Of it here, as you did
at home, and reduce our country to the SER
Fitude of kings, priests and popes?", ,o,,z.,

ADAMS & Co,-Daily developments at
San Francisco are placing this odious firm
in so detestable light, that it is almost an
unbearabe subject to mention at all. 1t is
now most clearly proved that Cohen, Wood,
ct al, wilfully and deliberately swindled the
people out of hundreds of thousands, which
they had it in their power to pay after the
crash took place. But no, the miseries of
thousands, poverty-stricken by their villany,
were nothing in opposition to the selfish de-
sire of pampering up their little pitiful
lives with the fruits of honest industry and
patient toll. Let such men be clothed with
curses as with garment, and living hell
wrap them with its hottest flames;

Editor Ashland Union : III MAS you
to be laboring with eommendable zeal
to keep your readers posted in regard to all
matters affecting their political, social and Pc
cuniary welfares, permit US to call their atten
ton to the fact that we nave Just received the
heaviest stock of Spring and Summer Goods
that we have ever brought to this market. An
enumeration of our stock we deem
altogether unnecessary for the reason that eve
ry one who will favor us with a call will hndIt
complete in every department. We would
simply simply say that it embraces articles OF
every style, variety and quality of Ladies
Dress Goods, and Gentlemen's Summer wear
together with a large assortment of HoUse-
Keeping Goods, Queensware, Groceries, &C.
Having changed our mode of doing business,
it will be proper for US to state, for the salts
faction CT our old customers, briefly, our rea~
sons for so doing. Our first great object is to
sell goods CHEAP. To do this we must have the
money to buy our goods cheap. We wish TO
avoid The losses of bad debts and 1" long wind
ed " customers we wish to save the expense
of keeping books and making collections. BY
so doing we can and will sell goods at much
less profits than is possible for any credit store
to do LIST, because we shall have the money
to buy our goods, which will save us 10 per
cent, End, because we shall save the expense
of one Clerk ; Sd, we will save S per cent. for
making collections, losses by bad debts ana
expense of books. All things considered, we
think it safe to say that it will make 81 diner
enee of at least Is per cent. to the consumer.
This being true we think every man, woman
and child who can pay for their goods, viii
avail themselves of the advantages of this sys-
tenn. Those who never expect to pay for their
goods, of course care but little about the price.
All those who wish to buy goods cheap torrsa-
dy pay can find a stock of goods which for va
riety, styles and low prices, has never been
equaled in the County, by calling on then
friends and well =wishers,
