The President i'm A. ID. 1900.
An unknown cotemporary writes as folio,

An unknown contemporary writes as follows:
"The boy is now living who will be President
of the United States in 1900 He is about ten
or twelve years of age. His parents are in hum
BILE circumstances. but of sterling traits of char
acter, and their son is not one of those dirty
noisy boys that spend their davs, evenings and
Sabbaths in idleness and rowdysm. On the con-
trary he is of a serious cast, is very studious,
&c, &c. He is not among those
who pride themselves rs being Young America,
and despise the authority of father, or break
away from the gentle restraint of a good mother" :"
The writer may look into the future with the
eye of seer. We doubt it, however. It is not
altogether certain that " the President in A. D.
l900,' d" is of a serious cast, is very studious."
Unwritten history does not tell that Washington
or jackson were remarkably serious in early
youth. 1t is true written history tells us this
doubt, ier we know that he once determined,
against his mothers tears and entreaties, to be-
come sailor, and only abandoned the idea af
ter he got aboard the vessel History says that
the recollection of his mothers tears induced
him to bring his trunk ashore and return to his
lOOi. We hhNS "iN"No ihth
that the young scamp was made sea-sick during
his FIRST night aboard, by the rocking of the YES
sci, and that this fact had more to do with his
yielding obedience to his mother than aught
else. At all events, it is very certain that, in his
early manhood, George was tolerably fast"
young man-so L" fast, indeed, that. on one oc-
casion. while the Virginia House of Burgesses
was in session, in the old town of Fredericks-
burg, he was one of lot of fast young fellows
who were rebuked by the Speaker for making a
disturbance in one of the upper galleries, by too
playful and noisy gallantry among bevy OF
girls of doubtful reputation
Jackson may have been of very serious turn
of mind in his early youth. If so, he got bravely
over it. For he afterwards exhibited much skill
at 4" old sledge" and other kindred games with
" keards," and loved horse-raciug and cock
fighting hugely "Of serious cast !" Poh

COP SAVE THE QuEEy.-Wc have frequently
heard Engishmcn become exceedingly enthusi-
astic in praisng Victoria. Indeed we know of
one of her subjects who will get mad in mo-
ment if you doubt her perfection. The poor
fellow does not know that such as he are not
permitted even to speak to Queen Victoria. A
writer says the Queen may not speak to a trades
man; and Victoria has been seen standing not
yard away from one, addressing her inquiries
to equerry, who repeated them to the trades
man, and again repeated to her Majesty all his
answers.
The humblest man may speak to the wife Of
an American President, and the American Pre-
sidents wife will not feel herself contaminated
thereby, fol, perhaps, she will remember that her
husband was once a laboring man himself. How
intelligent Britons can submit to the idea that
their nobility would be contaminated by even
speaking to them, is to US inexplicable.

upon my Hams, which in all cases bears a fac
similie of my signature, and is in every respec,
the same label have used for many wears past
The unrivalled reputation which my Hams
have long borne in the California market rem
ders me exceedingly anxious that no Hams pack
ed by other persons should be mistaken for the
well known and genuine
HORACE BILLINGS, HAMS.
Aud my present object is to ask consumers. es-
pecially to distinguish my Hams from certain
other Hams, which, learr-h-,ye tbis ses.son been
sent to California on which Sle name of
BILLINGS
has been placed, with label resembling mine
in style, type &c.
My Hams are cured under nv own personal
supervision, and their admitted excellence is
owing to the great care used, and the peculiar
preparation they undergo in curing, by which
delicacy of flavor, preservation of the Juices of
the meat, and freedom from undue saltness are
secured
confidently assure purchasers of nv Hams in
California that the cure of 1859 will be found of
the choicest quality and flavor, and fully equal

And now, when the maturcr years, the scenes

The memory Of my wayward way is darkly
round me thrown,
To whisper, that by acts OK mine that smile

Amid the worlds dscordant throng sadness

Hath sweet remembrance given me for these

The thought that as their love grew faint it

In all the bliss which have felt, In all tho

And when my love to others turned, and cold

Useful Receipts.

PRESERVING BUTTER. The farmers ofAb-
erdeen, Scotland, are said to practice tho fol-
lowing method of curing their butter, which
gives it great superiority over that of their
neighbors:
Take two quarts of the best of common
salt, one ounce Of sugar, and one ounce of
common saltpetre; take one ounce of this COM
position for one pound of butter, work it well
into the mass. and close it up for use. The
butter cured with this mixture appears of a
rich marrowy consistency, and fine color, and
never acquires brittle hardness nor tastes
salty. DIR. Anderson says: 81 have eaten but
ter cured With the above composition that
had been kept for three years, and it was az
sweet as at first 1t must be noted, however,
that butter thus cured is to stand three or
four weeks before it is used If it is sooner
opened the salts are not sufficiently blended
with it, and sometimes the coolncss of nitre
will he perceived, which totally disappears
afterwards.
New MoDE OF CURING MEAT.-A process
has recently been discovered and a patent se-
cured by Mcssis. Paddock & Marsh, of Gin
cinnatti, Ohio by which meat of all kinds. it
is stated, can be cured and rendered fit for
any foreign market. in ten minutes time. As
soon as the animal is killed, and before being
skinned, salt is injected through the arteries,
and almost instantly the whole animal is i'm
pregnated with it. Beef cured by this pro-
cess at Houston, Texas, with the thermome-
ter at 80 degrees was found when exhibited
at Cincinnati to be perfectly sweet, and eoual
to tho best meat cured in the ordinary man
ncr.
DUcKwHEAT GRIDDLE CAKEs.-To four
teacups of flour, add five teacups of warm
water, and two tcaspoonful of good yeast
Stir it thoroughly, and let it stand in warm
place over night. In the morning add two
tcaspoonsful of fine salt, and one teaspoonful
of soda. Let your fire be quick but not hot.
enough to scorch or smoke the cakes; they
must be crisp and slightly cmbrowned and
ready to turn over as soon as they are COM
fortably settled upon the griddle. Such cakes
cannot injure the most delicate stomach Af-
ter the cakes are started in this manner, a
teacupful Of the batter left every morning as
''nest egg, answers better purpose than
yeast, and the cakes improve for several days.
1t is well, however, to begin anew about once
week.
MICE AID RATs.-Mr. Glenny says; Mice
and rats are very easily destroyed, if we set
| about it in earnest. Get live plaster of Paris
and flour: mix them dry in equal quantities,
lay it in dry places, and sprinkle little sugar
among it. Both rats and mice eat ravenously,
the plaster sets firm directly after it is moist
ened, becomes lump inside them, and kills
to certainty.
TIC REVIVE GILT FRANEs.-Beat up three
ounces OF the white Of eggs with an ounce
OF soda; blow the dust from the frames with
bellows; then rub them over with soft
brush dipped in the mixture.
CREAM PrEs.-Ons quart Of milk boiled,
