qalIow Candies Equal to Star.
(From the Richmond Rnguirsr.

To two pounds of tallow add one tea
cup full of good strong ley from wood
ashes. and simmer over slow fire. when
a greasy scum will float on top; skim thas
off for making soap, tit is very near soap
already,) as long as it continues to rise
Then mould your candles as usual, ma
king the w1cks a little smaller, and you
have a pure tallow candle, worth know
mo how to make, and one that burns as
long and gives a light equal to sperm
The chemistry demonstrates itself. An
ounce or two of beeswax will make the
candle some harder, and sleeping the
wicks in spirits of turpentine will make
It burn some brighter.

From Fredericksburg.

RIcHMoND, Dec 1.-The enemy at
Fredericksburg have attempted to-day to
cross the Rappahannock by Pontoon
bridges. They have been repulsed at two,
but are still engaged in constructing the
third, under cover of their guns. Heavy
firing still continues.
SECOND DISPATCH.
Passengers by the evening train from
Fredericksburg state that the enemy
were repulsed with heavy loss at two of
the points at which they attempted to
cross the river. During the morning sew
eral shells were thrown into the town
from the heights opposite, which battered
down two or three houses. Jacob Graft
an old citizen, was killed by a shell.
