r. The Soldiers Convention Ia

r. The Soldiers Convention las
Saturday. proved al entire failure. as
might have been expected. There vas
no representation from but three town.
ships in the County. Enterprising pol.
ilicisns were on hand, ready 10 ensi-
neer the affair through. but even with
their help. nothing could be done.-
They offered much entirely disinteresfed
advice, but to no purpose; ths'couldn';
succeed in getting 4 shadow a meeting
organized. through which they might
&c, their friends into nomination, SO
they gave it up As an Improbable un-
dertaking and returned home. It is
our opinion that they might be in far
better business. than running over the
county getting up Conventions for the
>beneflC!) of soldiers. We think when
soldiers want TO hold Convention they
will issue a call themselves. in proper
form. and carry it through wi,hou, the
help of any political demagogues.

The Sol dier's Reception.

Our enierprising and patriotic neigh
bors Of Winchester gave = social recep-
lion and dinner 10 the returned soldiers
of the county on Thursday last. The
day was spent in very pleasant man
p-r, fess,ing. singing. talking. and lots
Of other good things; it was decidedly
. gay and happy" gathering. Mr..
Vim. Kincaid addressed the assemblage
ms short speech. welcoming the soldiers
back 10 their former homes from the
hardships and dangers Of the service,
and trusting they nigh, prove as good
citizens as they have soldiers. which We
doubt not but they viii.
The tables we're boun,ifully spread
with easables in every variety. to which
ample justice was done. About sixty
discharged soldiers were present; We
havn't had time to even estimate the
number Of the fair sex who we're pres.
ent. but We know that there Was some
of the handsomest to be found in the
country. Music and dancing was the
order Of the night. and it was kept up
until a late. or rather early. hour the
next morning.
The ladies and citizens of that vicin-
iiy deserve credit for this manifestation
of their pleasure at the return Of thei,
soldiers. and the tasteful and generous
manner in which the reception was
gotten up. II will long be remembered
with pleasure BY those Who participated.

How TO Make Pure Butter.

The fresh, sweet pastures of June,
furnishing that abundance of succu-
lent feed which new mich COWS need
TO give rich milk in abundance, make
this month prominently the butter
month. We present herewith the
views of good butter maker: 81 am
very particular about thoroughly scald-
ing and summing my pans in hot wealth
or; do not fill them more than half
full, and skim after the milk thickens
sufficiently, SO that the cream comes
off smooth, without taking any milk
with it, which, / think, is apt to make
curdles in the butter, and that Injuries
the looks of it. Churning should be
done every day, if sufficient cream be
obtained If not, the cream III the
pot should be thoroughly stirred
whenever any is added, and | add a
little salt, which is certainly not u bad
idea | design, when churn, to have
the cream the right temperature,
neither too warm nor too cold SO MS to
avoid putting in any warm or cold
water until it is thoroughly freed
from buttermilk: salt it to my taste,
and set it in o cool place until the
next morning, when | work it over
again until it presents a firm and uni
form appearance. Last summer |
worked my butter three times before
packing.
At the last working add a small
quantity more of salt. After packing
it smoothly / sprinkle tablespoonful
of loaf sugar ard little salt over the
top between every layer, and apply on
the top of that cloth pressed down
closely, to keep the air from it during
the time that must intervene before the
packing of the next layer. After the
jar or frkin is well filed, l put The
cloth on the top and apply another
thicker one, and fill up with sal
packed tightly, and even with the tol
of the jar; then lay on another cloth t.
fit the top. l also put another one
over the jar and have it come over TIN
edge and paste it tight to the jar, thel
put on a board and weight Or anoth
er way; Instead of putting in salt,
take melted butter and turn in on th
thin cloth even full, and lastly, appl
salt sprinkled over the the top befor
putting on the last cloth and weigh
Then again, have had butter kee
well after packing thoroughly as
have stated, to fill up the top of ii
Jar with strong brine, which shout
stand two inches deep on the top will
out being filed up with butter, and
is necessary to put q little saltpetre

very good place to keep butter or no
if he attend to the strict observance
these rules, can have good butter al
