PASSION WEEk.-Wnh last Sabbath Palm Sun
day, or the Sunday before Easter. commenced the
last week of the Fast OF Lent, commonly called
Passion Week, or, IDLY Week, so designated i'om
the fact OF its being devoted To the conmcmnra-
ton of the closing events in the Life ef the Re
dcemer. On Palm Sunday, the ent,anc OF Christ
into Jerusalem, whcn as the gospels record, 'ihe
multitude spread their garments in the way, ami
others cut dwn branches off the trees and strrWrd
them in the way. and they that went betor" and
they that followed cried, saying, llosanna, blessed
is he that cometh in the name Of the Lord' On
the succeeding days his betrayal, the institution
of the Lords Supper, his condemnation cruelty
ion death and burial. The season ends with Sat
nr,lay, Easter evening, when the solemn services
peculiar to this occasion Of humiliation, tasting
and prayer. give place to the great and ioye">
festival Of Easter. The Pascal mnon. which reg
ulatcs this festival only became tul! on sunday
morning, and thus Easter occurs this year later
than at any period for more than fifty years past,
aud is nearly as late "a it can ever occur.

Time to Set Gooseberry and
Currant Bushes.

The oscberry and currant bushes
the sooseberry especially out buds
early and the lcaf drops early at ,he
close Of the season. The branches will
she'd their leaves soon, if they have not
already. As soon as this is done in the
fali, If YOU wish to remove any roots it
may DC done bette. than in the spring.
Ii You wish to propagate by slips. it may
also be done better in the fall than
in spring provided you SO protect them
by mulching them with litter OF som,
sort to prevent their being thrown out
by the frost. Cut off the slips Of proper
length, and if at the bottom you take 4
little Of last years growth it will be bet
ter.
Some cut every bud but one or two
at the top. Set them down so as to
leave the top eye out OF the ground. and
mulch them we'll and leave them till
spring. In the spring. look TO them
nj clear away any rubbish that may
have accidentally fallen about them, and
they will start early"

Cooking Tomatoes.

Mr.. \. Mott, Frenchman publishes
the following directions respecting thu
cooking of tomatoes. We publish the
recipe not because it is the best, but for
variety sake. We have always found
tomatoes to be good " hen cooked accor-
ding to any receipt and good eating il
not cooked at all /:
Few people understand how to treat
tomatoes. Some eat them raw; others
Lave them slightly boiled with bread
worthless stuff some take off the
skin, and leave the seeds.
Unless you evaporate IS per cent. Of
water from the tomato, you will obtain
from it nothing but half nauscous por.
ridges, navcr that delicious. tempting
pulp, whose highly developed fragrance
rendess it 50 pleasing to the nostril, nice
to the taste, sharp to the teeth, and
healthy to the stomach.
Take half a peck Of ripe, washed to-
matoes, cut them open by halves, scratch
out the sc2ds, preserve the skin; have a
skillet or any carthen ware dish, place it
over q brisk fire, with an ounce of but.
ter, an from one halt to one pound of
sliced fat ham; twenty minutes after.
put in the tomatocs,pepper, little salt;
let boil fast for about one hour, dimin-
ishing the fire as the water disappears !;
let it simmer for three hours or more on
hot ashes, to the consistency Of half Ii
quid, half compact pulp; turning often
with wooden spoon TO prevent any
sticking at the bottom cover the skillet
when the fire goes down; all is right.
Ring no bell, blow no horn, the boys
will be at hand bctoretimc, ,snufins hard,
wcttinS their lips. AT this stage of pro-
ccedin5s, the prudent housewife will
break in some eggs, half an hour before
dinner, and then there will be general
craving for morc.''

Whining.

There is class Of persons in this
world, by no means small, whose promi.
nent popularity is whining. They
whine because they are poor, or if rich,
because they have no health to enjoy
their riches; they whine because it is
too rainy; they whine because they have
no luck and others prosperity exceeds
theirs they whine because some friends
have died and they are still living; they
whine because they have aches and
pains, and have aches and pains because
they whine, and they whine no one can
tell why. Now. would like to say a
word to these whining persons.
First, stop whining. tits Of no use
tins everlasting complaining, fretlins.
scoldins, fault-iinling and whining, :
Why, you arc the most deluded set of
creatures that ever lived. Did You not
know that it is a well-settled principle
Of ply siology and common sense, that
these habits are more exhaustive of ner-
vous vitality than almost any other vio-
lation of physiological law And do
You not know that life is pretty much as
you take i, and make it? You can
make 1t bright, and sanshiny, or you
can make it dark, shalowy. This life is
meant only to be disciplnary-to fit us
for higher and purcr state of being.
Then stop whining and frettins, and
''s9 on your way rgjoicins.o
Second, Sing the song of lie chceri1y

A Reminiscence of Daniel
Webster.

bic following conversation occurred
at the dinncr-table. where Mr.. Webster
for the first time met Col Preston, then
new Senator from South Carolina.
Colonel Preston said the great
Massachusetts, lawyer, in his statelies,
manner, Il am happy to greet you as a
member of the body to which it is my
pride AMI honor to belong. but regret
to see that Southern gentlemen so often
stand aloof from me-
Mr. Preston answered in polite and
deterential terms, when the other con-
tinued:
The truth is, | am far more a South
ern than a Northern man. and | think
that should be treated as hail fellow
by all my Southern coIlea.sses."
''Alay | beg to know" sgd TIVE other.
''the grounds upon which yeu .aato ais
claim"
Certainly" replied Mr.. Webster.
"ln the first place, am very fond Of a
