"A NEw Way OF MAKING BUTTER-A
French chemist states that butter may be
made without churning by the use of a filter
made of white felt in the form of bag in the
four corners Of which are inserted porous
strings, Ike candle wick, to carry off the fluid
portion Of the milk The bag being suspended
by the four corners from tweuty-four to thirty
hours, she contents of the filter will be found
TO be Of the consisteace of soft cheese. This
solidifed cream is then placed in linea bag,
tied tight, and the bag kneaded like roll of
dough. In a few minutes the mass grows
liquid, and the butter and buttermilk are
separated.

GETTING THEIR EYES OPENED.-"Spec-
tator," the New York correspondent of
the Buffalo Commercial, writes:
December will pass away quietly, and so
will January, but by the first of February
it is more than probable we shall have
hundred thousand hungry men in the streets
out of work, out of bread out OF shelter, and
out of temper. Men OF property, can as
sure you, are looking forward to this con-
tingency with fear and trembling. The
merchant princes of Fifth Avenue palaces
have had mobs parading past their doors
at dead of night, ere now, clamoring for
"bread or blood" and there are many
among US with whom the recollections of
the -four riots of 1887 are still fresh, who
dread another upheaving of the dangerous
class of that character, certain as it is to
be aggravated and made ten-fold more
dangerous by the bitter political feeling
that exists.
