Horse BACK ExERcrsE-The stamina of

HORSE BACK ExERcfsB.-The stamina of
constitution and yigor of body, so much
superior in former generations as compared
with the present. was owing in great de-
gree to exercise on horse back. Years ago,
it was almost the only means of land trans
portation, save on foot, for carriages and
pleasure wagons have come in general use
within the present century. Horseback
exercise for both sexes was general and
common within the memory of many now
living. as it is now in New England and
other portions of our country, particularly
the southern. It gives robustness to the
body, vigor TO the mind, freshness to the
countenance. cBeerfulpess to the spirits.
and health to the yiscera. In internal dis.
eases it is too much neglected. Dyspep,
sia, bilious complaints, consumption, have

Effects of Heat Upon Meat.

Prof. johnson, in his Chemistry of Gem
mon Life, says that well cooked piece of
meat should be full of its own juice. or nat
ural gravy. In roasting therefore, it should
be exposed to quick fire, that the exter-
nal surface may be made TO contract at once
and the albumen- to coagulate, before the
juice has had time to escape from within.
The same observations apply to boiling;
when piece of beef or mutton is plunged
into boiling water the outer part contracts.

ted either from being diluted or weakened
Dy the admission of water among it. When
cut up, therefore, the meat Yields much
gravy. and is rich in favor Hence, beef
steak or mutton chop is done quickly, and
over quick FIRE, that the natural juices
may be retained. On the other hand. if
the meat be done over slow fire its pores
remain open, the Juice continues to fiow
from within as it has dried from the sur
face, and the flesh pines and becomes dry,
hard and unsayory. Or if it be put in
cold water, which IS afterwards brought to
a boil, much of the albumen is extracted
before it coagulates, the natural juices, for
the most part flow out. and the meat served
IS nearly tasteless.a Hence to prepare good
boiled meat it should At once be put info
water already brought to boil. But. to
make beef tea. mutton broth. and other beef
soups, the flesh should be put IN cold water,
and this afterward very slowly warmed,
and finally boiled. The advantage derived

THE TOMB OF RACuEL.

The Hon. James Brooks, senior
editor ofthc New York Express, writes
to that journal from the Holy Land:
Upon my return to Bethlehem rode
by the tomb of Rachcl-a small build
ing with whitened dome, and have
ing within it a high, oblong monument,
built of brick and succeed over. The
spot is wild and solitary-and not a
tree spreads its shade where rests the
beautiful mother of Israel. Christian,
Jew and Moslem all agree that this is
just the spot where Rachel was buried,
and all unite in honoring it. The Turks
are anxious that their ashes may rest
near hers, and hence their bodies have
been strewn under tombs all around
the simple tomb Of Rachel. The
sweet domestic virtues of the wife
have won their love and admiration.
IS the tomb of Absolom, near the
brook Of Kedron, their detestation :
upon the latter they throw stone to
mark their horror Of the disobedient
son, while around the former, they
wish when they die, their bodies may
be inferred. Nor is this wonderful.
The wife, worth fourteen years of SER
vice as a shepherd, must have been a
wife worth having. The whole life Of
Rachel is, indeed, one of the most
touching in Biblical history. The
sweet shepherdess has left her mark
upon the memory of man, as we'll as
her tomb. The tribute to her is the
tribute to a good wife, and Infdel
Jew, and Christien all combine to pay
it. The great women of the earth
the Zenobias and Cleopatras--have
died, been buried and their very peace
of burial been forgotten !; but to Thu
day stands over the gave of Rachel, no
the pillar Jacob set up, but a moder,
monument in its place, around which
pilgrims from every land under tn
sun gather in respect and reverence
for the faithful wife and good mothe
in Israel. -s..'. !.
