BREAD.---It is said that one ,ot the most
wholesome kind of bread that can be used
is made thus, without salt, saleratus, yeast, or
rising of any sort:
Take bolted or unbolted -four or meal,
, thoroughly moisten the whole with pure soft
water, sca1dins hot that is, about one hundred
. and sixty degrees Fahrenheit, make it up firm
not sticky, then roR and cut into strips, or
any other form, hot over quarter Of an inch
thick, and half an inch broad. Bake quick
ly in a hot oven, until th1 dough has acquir-
ed soft, fine, brown color, Or until he water
/ has nearly all cvaporated.
Hydropathiets say that sweeter bread than
this was. never tasted. 1t certainly is pure
bread, cannot sour, will keep almost inde6ni-
tely and, if made of upbolted -four must be
the most healthful and nutritious bread that
can be prepared. But people wont use it,
because they2have not been accustomed to it
Just as Hans would never use an iron tire
80 his cart wheel, because he had never seen
.one used Besides, most persons have an ua-
.eonquerable prejudice against using or doing
anything that has unmixed good in it.

ITHAMAR SAITH.

" The basis of our political system is, the
right of the people to make and to alter their
constitution of government. y Washington.
The constitution for Kansas which origina-
ted with the Lecompton convention, can in no
sense be said to have been made by the people,
and if forced upon them, they will have no
power to alter it until 1864, and then only by
u convention called by two-thirds of the Legis-
lature. Perhaps Washington will be stigma
tiled as a " freedom shrieker,' but we trust all
reverence for his political opinions has not yet
died sut in tho land.

KANSAS A SLAVE SrATE.-After Constitution
is adopted which provides for State Govern
mcnt Immediately upon its adoption, and that
Constitution is supported and upheld by the
Federal Government, what more is required to
make Slave State? Such is now the position
of Kansas. And where is the boosted Free State
which the Northern Democracy so loudly pro-
claimed during the past season, if the Repub-
licans and Free State men would only let it
alone?" Have not the Free State people left
Kansas alone in the hands of the Administration
and it's friends? We think so, sincerely And
what is the result? Why, Kansas is not, as
promised, Free State, but will only be pre-
vented admission into the Union as Slave State
by the combined opposition of Republicans and
Senator Douglas.

CUTTING AND PRESERVING GRAFTs.-When
is the best time to cut CRAFTS, and which is the
best way preserve them? W. He.
They may be cut at any time during winter
or even before, if growth has ceased. We
have preserved late summer-cut buds, which
had matured well, till the following spring,
and used them successfully as CRAFTS. Such
kind as are liable to be injured by the cold Of
winter, should be cut late in autum, or before
the usual advent of the severest days.
For preserving them we prefer to place them
in successive layers of damp moss-the gratis
being previously tied in small bundles, and
each sort carefully and distinctly labelled.
Damp sand ( not wet answers good pur-
pose. In either case, they may be laid in
boxes in cellar
Another, and II good way, is to fasten them
in box open at top, without any packing,
and then bury the box, gratis and all, inyert-
ed, on dry spot. The earth preserves their
moisture, but does not touch them.

DuMBrouNDED.-The intelligence that the Le-
compton Constitution has been adopted has sur
prised and dumbfounded the whole Administra-
ton party. Not solitary boot dsturbs the
darkness, but every owl has shrunk
away into the sacredness of silence. Even the
smallest claim to notice which the Lecompton
despots had is annihilated, and willingly they
seize upon poor fllibuster Walker to find excuse
for their waiting for the Free State election Of
Jan. 4th.

TIcKs on SHEEp,-tIf sheep are fed grain
or oil cake meal, as they ought to be, will
warrent them free from ticks. It will be far
more profitable than sulphur 1 have some
hundreds feeding; let any man come here at
the end of March, and see if he can find two
ticks to hundred sheep. i guess he won't
unless have one that may have been sick
possibly it might have some. But some will
say, we cannot keep stock sheep like men who
fat sheep for market-but let me tell those
farmers that they should keep their stock
sheep in such condition that they won't breed
ticks. Sheep pay badly that raise ticks.
Sheep farmers, will you take notice of that ?

the lights Of the camp meetings and recent re.
vivals, Mr.. Chauncey shaffer, has lately been
guilty of the most extraordinary conduct, such
as threatening TO blow out magistrate brains
while on the bench. The culprit pleads chloro-

forms Of mental arrangement, and perhaps Mr.

THE Wmow OF GEN GAINES BEFORE Con-
GREss-The widow of that distinguished soldier,
Gen. Gaines, applied to the present Congress
for little pension of twelve hundred dollars a
year, in consideration of the services rendered
by her late husband to the country. The
modesty of this application. in view of those
services, is universally conceded in and out of
Congress and yet the small beer retrenchment
politicians of both houses have succeeded in
cutting down the allowance to the yearly sum
Of six hundred dollars whereby q saving Of six
hundred dollars has been made to the treasury
of the United States. Such things are among
the "cheese parings and candle end" savings
Of Congress; and yet these very economizers,
who would waste week to defeat the pension
of soldiers widow, would, perhaps, gulp
down. without wincing, dozen railroad land
and other spoils jobs, amounting to millions of
dollars in the course of single day. Such are
the demagogue reformers Of the present
Congress-
