Picked BEANS. = Select young
beans; string and wash them. Make
brine of salt and water strong enough
TO bear an egg. Put your beans into
it, and let them remain until they
change color. Then take them out,
and wash them in clear water Line
the bottom of your kettle with green
cabbage leaves, put in your beans, and
as much vinegar and water, or clear
water, as will cover them. Lay cab
bage leaves over the top; put them
over slow FIRE, and let them get scald-
ing hot. When they are green, take
them out, and let them drain. Put
them into jars with some alspice cloves,
little mustard seed and scraped horse
radisb, and enough vinegar to cover
them.
Tie them close, and keep them in a
cool, dry place.

A REMEDY FOR DYsENTERY.-At a
time when this dreadful disease is pre-
,yaiiing to SO large an extent as at pre-
sent, a remedy for it would be public
blessing. We believe we can suggest
one that, if not infallible, we know,
from experiments in our own family, to
be very successful. Take the pith of
the common mullen stalk-as much,
say, as will be found in foot and a
half of the stalk-boil it few moments
in . pint of milk, and let the patient
drink it at his leisure. The mullen
does not effect the taste. The benefi-
cial effects of this simple and pleasant
remedy, in several cases that have come
to our knowledge, have been speedily
witnessed. Everybody should try it.
4" it can do no harm, if it does no good. y
But we are confident it will do great
good. 1t may be old to some of our
readers-but probably new to others.

CoTToN SEED FOR CATTLE FEED
The Philadelphia correspondent of the
N. Y. Tribune writes that persons in
that city have actually begun te-;-Hpor'
cattle feed from ths--ottoh States, In
,ho sh.n-cotton seed, oil-cake and
--sea1 Within short time a process
has been devised by which the oil con-
tanned in cotton seed is extracted in
large quantities. The residum is an
oilcake which has been found on exam
ination and trial to be richer in albu-
men and mucilagenous and saccharine
matter than the far-famed linseed OIL
cake. A Philadelphia house has re-
ceived several tons from New Orleans,
and henceforward will keep themselves
regularly supplied. Mountains of this
cotton seed have been thrown away or
burned during the last fifty years, as it
could be applied to no useful purpose.
But from present indications a very
extensive trade, both foreign and do
nestle, is likely to grow out of it.

PrcK1rp .MANGoEs. Wash your
mangoes and rub them until they are
smooth. Cut a piece outof the side of
each one, take out all the seeds; then
replace the piece, aud tie it closely with
q thread. Make pickle of salt water
strong enough to float an egg. Put in
the mangoes, and place cover over
them and weight upon it, in order
to keep them entirely under the brine.
Let them remain nine or ten days !:
then take them ont and wash them in
clear water. Line the bottom of your
kettle with leaves, put in your mangoes
cover them with water and put a
layer Of cabbage leaves over them
place them over slow fire, keep them
scalding hot, but do not let them SIM
mer. As soon as they become of fine
green, take them out and wipe them
dry. Stir together some scraped horse
radish, mustard seed, cloves, allspice,
coriander seed, and garlic; fill your
mangoes with this mixture, tie on the
piece again, and lay them in the jars,
with the cut side up. A little sugar
may be added to the vinegar, OF which
pour over sufficient quantity to cover
the pickles. Tie them closely. They
are not fit for use until they become
soft.

PLANTING STRAWBERRIES. = The
present month is the time for planting
strawberries, if they are expected to
bear next year. If planted later than
this month they will hardly grow suf-
fciently this fall to produce fruit next
season. Should August and the early
part OF September be dry and hot, the
cultiyator should be quite content if he
save lis plants alive, but with moist
weather for time after planting, the
roots will at once take hold and the
vine continue green and fresh secur-
ing a handsome growth before the ffosts
set in.

THE ELECTION FOR THE STATE LEGISLATURE
The election for the Legislature Of this State
will take place in week, and the different
parties are Gil making their nominations, and
all kinds of men are being selected-most Of
them bad, and some Of them the very worst in
every respect that could be found outside OF
the State prison. The democratic party is split
into two or three factions-frst the Tammany
faction, then the Mozart Hall, and lastly the
independent or German faction, headed by
Rosenberg. Besides the democratic party, and
it's divisions and subdivisions, there are
two or three others in the field, all equally pa
triots and equally anxious to serve their com
mon country These various parties either now
have, or soon will have, their candidates in the
field. AS they cannot all be elected, and as only
aiew days will have elapsed before the con-
test takes place, the best thing the people can
do, In the meantime, is to make selection from
the various tickets, taking the best men they
can find on each; for though bad are the best,
and though it is but o choice of evils,
Of which we ought TO take the least,
on the whole ticket thus selected would
