Rt5~ lady correspondent writes US, re-
guessing That we publish some recipe for the

| that it will be highly useful among the sick of
! the army, and that it will be proper and time

place to several recipes which will be found be-
low The same intelligent lady, aprrehending

Pleasant Drink.-A correspondent suggests
that, instead of the deeterious compounds at
present drank with avidity by some of the
volunteers, pure fresh water, by the adinixture
of vinegar and molasses can be rendered
equally as enticing and exhilerating, and that
great good would result if it was dealt out al
dinner time, if not oftener. 1t will bring about
an innocent excitement, which will make the
volunteers "almost fancy themselves at home
with thsir kind, cheerful associates and rela.
tives." The drink will enliven during warm
weather, and counterac. in a great degree
the consequences of dry, salty food. Ii is
nearly as good as lemonade whea properly
