The Old Brown Cot.


Among tho scenes to memory doar
To which my fancy oft returns,
And for whose loug-lost days Of joy
My spirit in its sadness yearus,
There's none which sceus 50 dear to mo
As that where passed Iifc's curly mornj
There's none for which sigh SO Oft
As for the cot-uhere was born.
CHORUS.
The old brown cot, tho low brown cot
Tho moss-grown cot beneath tho hill;
Though years have passed since wus there
love it, oh, love it still! |!
1t stood beside the running brook
Whose waters turned the noisy mill,
Aud close beneath the tall old osks
That nodded on tue sloping hill.
The woodbine creeping Ger the walls,
The sunshine on the grasSy plot
How beautiful they were to me
When homo was in that old brown cot
Though I may view the fairest lands
On which the sun iu glory beams,
And dwell in ciimes more beautiful
Than poets visit in their dronms;
Still will affection linger round
That loved and consecrated spot,
Aud tears will fall as 20 back
To boyhood and tho old brown cot.

CoRNs.-Bol potato In its skin, and after
it is boiled take the skin and put the inside
of it to the corn, and leave it on for about
twelve hours; at the end Of that period the
corn will be much better. The above useful
and simple receipt has been tried and found
to effect remedy.
One of our agricultural exchanges assures
its readers that the leaves of the elder, scat
tered over cabbage, cucumbers, squaches, and
other plants, subject to the ravages of insects,
etfectuslly shields them. The plum, and other
fruits subject to the ravages of insects, may
be saved by placing on the branches and
through the tree punches of elder leaves.

Domestic Recipes,

CARROT FRITTERS.-Bull and mash the
carrots, season with pepper and salt to the
taste, and fry rich brown.
LEMON CREAM.-Make with boiling water
quart of good lemonade very sweet Strain
it, and put it in stewpau over the fire. Add
the yolks of eight eggs beaten up, and stir
the cream until of proper consistency. II
you wish to have it in moulds, add some dis
solved isinglass little at time. Otherwise,
serve up the cream in dish, or in glasses.
How TO MAKE SoAr.-The following re-
cpe for making SOAP taken from an exchange,
is said to be the same recipe which Soap
Vendors are selling for FROM 10 to 20 dollars.
Tue receipt is as follows:
Half gallon of water.
Half tablespoonful of Sal Soda.
One do SpiS, Turpentine.
One do Hartshola,.
One do Salt.
Six pounds Soap.
Boil the water fir-t-shave up the sOal'
used (any kind will do) then Stir it in the
water. Add the other ingredients and boil
five minutes-when cool, it is fit for use.
Oat straw is best for filling beds; should
be changed once year.
Green should be the prevailing cvlor Of
hangings and window droPpery.
Scotch snuff put on the holes where crick-
cts come out will destroy them.
Wood ashes and common salt wet with
water, will stop the cracks of stove, and
prevent the smoke from escaping.
How TO SToP BLooD.-Take the fine dust
of teas, or the scrapings of the inside Of sole
leather, and bind it closely upon the wound,
and the blood will soon cease to flow. These
articles are recommended because they are
at all times accessible, and easy to be OBJ
tanned. After the blood has ceased to flow,
laudanum may be advantageously applied to
the wound Due regard to these instructions
will save agitation of mind and running for
the surgeon, who would probably make no
better prescription il present.-Salem Ga-
Getta.
