The WooDwoRrH PLANNING MILL MONOPOLY.
An Ohio correspondent of the Scientific Amer
can writes that Ohio is ahead in opposing the fur.
Their extension of the Woodwork monopoly, and
encloses the report made by G. B. Griffin, Special
Committee, and also the resolution which was
adopted by the Legislature by an overwhelming
majority. The resolution reads as follows =
ResolUed, By the General Assembly of the
State of Ohio, That our Senators in Congress be
instructed, and our Representatives. in Congress
their power, the renewal of said patent upon the
| application of VIM. W. Woodwork, or any other
| person or persons in his behalf.
The american says" We hope this resolution
will be adopted by every State Legislature now in
session. The time fer action has arrived Let
the sovereign seal of indignation against this
monster be firmly and eloquently expressed every
where, and let the circumstances be sent to Con-
gress without delay.
The following Representatives have been APP
pointed by Speaker Banks, as Committee on
Patents: E. B, Morgan, N Y; c. c. ChafFee,
Mass; s. A. Smith, Tenn; R. T. Paine, N. c.:
and ]. R. Emrie, Ohio.
These are believed to be upright men, who will
act honestly in the matter. All they require is
the firm expression of public opinion against tho
scheme Of the memorialist, and there will be no
need Of apprehension that the extension will be
granted Send on the circumstances, and if any
more blanks are wanted we will supply them"

American srnto ConnciI.

| The State Council of the Know Nothing party
met at the Music Hall, Boston, on the 4th inst,
to hear the report of the delegates to the Phila-
| delphia Convention.
Hon. H. W. Benchley was called to the Chair
and prayer was offered by Rev. Mr. Eddy. Con-
siderable time was spent in discussing the sub
ject of admitting reporters, and it was finally
voted that some should be admitted.
The committee on credentials reported that
they had received the credentials Of 179 members,
| and that PIG persons were present.
| A motion was passed to limit all speakers, ex-
cept delegates to the Philadelphia Convention, to
| fifteen minutes.
On motion of Hon. E. C. Baker, the Conven-
ton voted to adjourn at II NJ. to P. NJ, in order
that members of the Legislature who dele
gates to the Council may be at liberty to attend
without interfering with their legislative duties.
After some other important business, the Coun-
Gil at II NJ. adjourned to 8 P. NJ.
BY Telegraph.
AFTERNOON SEssIoN.-The reporters Of the
Times, Atlas, and Telegraph, we're admitted by
Special vote. The motion to throw open the
doors to all Massachusetts, reporters was rejected.
A. A. Richmond gave an account of the Phila-
delphia Convention. He said that on the motion
to postpone the nomination, he thought he rep
resented Massachusetts,. He voted against the
platform, because he thought it neither one thing
or the other. He believed the American party
could not stand with Fillmore as its candidate.
He stood ON the Springfield platform, and he
could not support Fillmore and Donelson upon
that platform.
S. NJ. Allen, substitute for E. c. Baker, said
he stood upon the Springfield platform. He
voted for John Mclean, and he believed the pro-
LESSONS of the South for Fillmore were rotten
and insincere. Not one of the Massachusetts
delegates voted for Fillmore, on the formal or
informal vote.
Mr.. Ely explained the action of the Council on
the contested delegates, and said he voted for the
platform, not because it was what he wanted, but
because it was the best he could get. The Coun
Gil meets this evening, and there is prospect of
a late and stormy session.

Fried Fish

The great art in frying fish is,
to have it free from grease. and
IN that state il is one Of the most
delicate descriptions OF food that
can be given 10 the invalid, and
at the same time the most nour-
ishing. The sudden immersionin
the Fat solidilies the albumen in
the flesh Of the fish, and renders
it easy Of digestion; the coating
Of bread crumbs prevents the iat
penetrating into the fish, and
when eaten by the invalid, the
skin should removed and only
the white flesh should be partak-
en- Of.
The point is to have plenty OIL
fat in the pan, for it is not wasted,
far from it. If it is kept at a
proper degree Of heat, in the
same pan a fish may be fried, and
at the same time an apple fritter
neither will taste Of the other
proving that the high degree o.
heat in the fat prevents the flavor
Of the object immersed in it es

TAE VALLEY 70 fE TRUE INTEREST Or FARMERS Ecl


A late English paper contains
the following recipe for making
bread. The addition Of rice, as
specified, is said to confer upon
on the bread the property Of kee-
ping moist and sweet for a longer
period than the ordinary kind oil
bread:
"Tie up one pound and a hall
of the best American rice in q
thick linen bag, allowing it ample
room TO swell, boil it for three OF
four hours until it becomes a
smooth paste; NIX this while warm
with fourteen pounds OLDEST flour
adding the usual quantity Of
yeast and salt. Allow the dough
to work a certain time near the
FIRE, after which divide it into
Ioaves, and it will be found te
produce from twenty-eight tc
thirty pounds Of excellent whit,
bread"

Doit just as you fatten men,
As We begin to write on this sub
ject, we look around, in magma
ton, upon the many hale, rosy,
rubicund readers Of the Rural
American. and we are halfinclined
to throw down our pen. Shall
we presume to tell that circle Of
fat people how to enlarge the cor
poraIity Of their domestic ami
mails? Don't they know alrea-
dy2 Are they not a quiet, easy
set Of people? They are not dis
turbing themselves about Kan
sas, or the fate Of the Union, or
a railroad to the moon. Don't
they eat good food, and a plenty
Of it? And don't they exercise
enough to promote good diges-
ton, and not enough to wear up
on them? Yes, they do all these
sensible things, and everybody
sees that they are in good state
Of preservation.
Apply this in the fattening Of
animals, for man is but an animal
Of a high order. Keep the crea-
lures quiet. Let them have an
airing occasionally, or exercise
enough to promote digestion, but
more than this is a useless waste
OF food. Feed them systematic
ally. Have regular hours, and
adhere to them. Where is the
man who don't feel faint and un.
easy,ii his dinner is delayed?--
Where is the tardy cook who ha.
not been charged to "hurry W
those cakesl" So with animals
they feel uneasy if their food j.
given ut irregular intervals; anl
If uneasy, they will not thrive
Feed them wholesome food, and
in proper amount Ripe apples
and pumpkins are better than rot
ten or shriveIledones. Give then
if possible the most nourishinl
food first, and the most nutritiv'
afterwards. OF root crops, pota
toes will rank highest for iatten
ing purposes, carrots next, an'
then turnips Of various kinds
OF grain, wheat stands the high

Indian corn, peas and barley
Corn is the most popular article
especially for swine. 1t answer
its purpose best when ground, an

Be Abstemious.

What says TIippocrates? "The
more you nourise a disessed body,
the worse you make it." And
so il is. Fast often; give natufe
her regular holidays: keep away
from the apothecary as much as
possible. But strict temperance
saves from all this. The follow
ing we deem in point.
Many cases Of illness, among
both adults and children, may be
readily cured by abstinence from
NIL food. Headaches, disordered
stomachs, and many other at
tacks, are caused by violating the
rules Of health, and, in conse-
quence. some part Of the system
is overloaded, or some Of the or
gans are clogged. Omitting one,
two or three meals, as the case
may be, gives thesystem a chance
forest, andallow The cloggedorgaas
10 dispose Of their burdens. The
practice Of giving drugs to clear
out the stomach, though it may
afford the needed temporaryrelief,
always weakens the system, while
abstinence secures the good result
without doing any injury.
Said a young gentleman to a
distinguished medical practitioner
|of Philadelphia,
"Doctor, what do you do for
yourself, when you have a turn d
headache, or other slight at
tack?'
"Go without my dinner?"
Sand il that does not cure
you?"
$50 without my supper"
"But if that does not cure you,
what then?"
"Go without nv breakfast
We physicians seldom take medi.
cines ourselves, or use them il

starving is better, but we cannot
make our patients believe it."
