to the acid contained in the fruit, and
often imparts an unpleasant flavor and
dark color to the fruit.
The Louisville Glass Works have
lately commenced manufacturing
'new style Of fruit jar, said to possess
advantages over any Others for easy
and perfect sealing. The jar is sini.
lar in form to those formerly used, cx-
ccpt the mouth or neck, which Is made
of the usual size Of the common fat
cork This neck i formed with =
shoulder, upon which the cork rcsts,
which will prevent its ever being
forced in by the pressure Of the at
mosphcre, in consequence Of the cool
ing and slrnkage OF the contents, but
the pressure only renders the cork
more tight, as il is forced down on tho
shoulder or ledge, and with the ord;-
nary sealing renders them perfectly
tight and easily uncorked, while tho
bottles and corks may be preserved
and used for years, as good as new.
As some Of our readers may not bc
familiar with the details Of preserving
fruit, we give the process for their
benefit.
The fruit to be preserved shonld be
scalded, or boiled in a kettle for few
minutes. and kept covered while cook
ling II the fruit is not Of very juicy
character, little water should be put
in, to prevent burning. Sugar may
be added now to suit the taste, or il
may be omitted until the jar is opened
for use. The jars to lie filed should
be set in u pan Of water and kept boil
ing. to prevent their breaking when
the fruit is put in, as well as to render
The vacuum more perfect under the
cork when cooled. With small Dip

jars with the scalded fruit, first select

press the cork firmly down to tho
shoulder in the neck, then, with an
iron spoon, apply a quantity Of wax.
and rub it so rs to fill all the cavities

sCostly apparatus and splendid cabinets .
says Daniel Webster, shave no magical
power TO make scholars. In all circumstan-
tes; as a man is, under God, the master OF
his own fortune, so he is the maker OF his
own mind. The Creator had so constituted
lie human intellect, that it can grow only
BY It's own action, and by its own action it

Try to summon, in case Of ofeGiergehcyi all his
mental powers in vigorous exercise te effect
his proposed object. 1t is not the man who
has seen most, or who has read most, who
can do this; such an one is in danger Of be-
ing borne down like beast of burden, by
an overloaded mass of other mems thoughts.
Nor is It the man who can boast merely of
native vigor and capacity. The greatest of
all the warriors that went to the seige of
Troy had not the pre-eminence because ma
ture had given aim strength and he carried
the largest bow, but because self-discipline
had taught him how to bend it.
