e - A Richmond physician has
discovered compound by the ap-
plication of which the teeth may be
drawn without the patients feeling
the least pain. A number Of physi-
clans have examined into the matter
and pronounced it a most valuable
discovery. The compound is per-
fectly harmless if it should be swal
lowed, and the patient is perfectly
conscious during the operation, but
feels no pain. How far this dis
covery may be applied to surgical
operations in general has not yet
been tried.

5 How TO Cook A BEEFsTEAK.-A
beefsteak ought always to De brolled
and never fried but the following
method of cooking is recommended
by Mrs. Hutton, which even those
who are accustomed to frying may
be willing to try: 1.-THE frying pan
being wiped very dry, place it upon
the stove and let it become hot-very
hot. In the meantime mangle the
steak--pepper and salt it, then lay
it in the hot, dry pan, which in
stantly cover as tightly as possible.
When the raw flesh touches the
heated pan, of course it seethes and
adheres to it, but in a few seconds il
becomes loosened and juicy. Every
half minute turn the steak; but be
careful to keep it as much as posi-
BILE under cover. When nearly done,
lay small piece of butter upon it,
and, if you want much gravy, add a
tablespoonful of strong coffee. In
three minutes from the time the
steak first goes into the pan it is
ready for the table. This method
Of cooking makes the most delicious,
delicately broiled steak, full Of juice,
yet retaining the healthful beefy
favor that any John Bull could re-
quire. The same method may be
applied to mutton chops, only they
need little longer cooking to pre-
vent them from being rare. An ex-
cellent gravy may be made for them
by adding little cream, thickened
d with pinch of -four, into which,
when off the fire and partly cool, stir
in the yolk of an egg, well beaten"

proval. | have made a valuable improvement In
the shape Of the button. since it was first intro

superior to any offered to the public.
The advantages of iron over rope for baling cot

the bale IN much smaller compass; 10 applied
and fastened with much more facility, both in the
country pressing and re comp essing at the sea-
ports i; lessons immensely the risk from fire; is
stronger, and its strength is not impaired by
time and xposure as that Of rope. This last ad-
vantage has been strikipgly manifested during
the war ThousaBdsof bales of cotton have been
lost by the rotting and breaking OF rope, which
could have been preserved II iron hoops had been
used In addition TO this, it can be furnished
nearly fifty per cent cheaper taan rope. The de-
rangemept of labor 10 the hemp growing States
has reduced the supply OF hemp to such an extent
as to cause prices to rule unprecedentedly ugh.
Indeed a sHfficieucy for biting moderate cotton
crop cannot be relied on at any price.

Gen. GrangCr's Report:

Gen. GrangCr'S RcpOrt.
We invite the cohsiderate attention OF
our readers to the report of Major Gen.
Gordon Granger on our second page.
We believeche presents the truth. 1t
is doubtless true there are outrages COM
mitted by men of little character, and
these form the basis Of the stock in
trade Of the radical newspapers who
publish them finished and colored to
suit their purposes, under displayed
heads as "Horrible Atrocities" But
OF the few and far between unpreju-
diced brutalities are expononts of the
sentiment of the Southern people, or
that they afford sufficient reason for
disfranchising the whole of the southern
people is as untrue and as unreasonable
as anything can be. Gen. Granger
goes over the whole question so candidly
that every reasonable man will rise from
the perusal of his report satisfied Of its
correctness.

here the reception was enthusiastic in
the extreme. The large space in front
of the depot was covered with people,
shouting and cheering, and when the
Hon. Hester Clymer appearee on the
platform Of the car, the applause was
tremendous. The meeting was organized
about 8 p. NJ. Col. Noyes of Clinton
country presiding. Hon. Hester Cly-
mer spoke for an hour and half, hand
ling in his own unequaled style, the
important questions which are presented
to us now, and disposing of the malic'
ious falsehoods which have been incul-
Gated against him. The enthusiasm at
this meeting was truly remarkable, men
and women repeatedly cheering the dis
tinguished gentleman who addressed
them Remove will give good account
of herself on the second Tuesday of
October. After the meeting the st.
Marys and Lock Haven Brass Bands
played for some time. Hon. Hester
Clymer was met at Remove by a com.
mittee from Lock Haven to receive and
escort him to that place, where he
speaks to-day. To Col Noyes, Judge

o. The Shirleysburg Huntington
county, Herald, hitherto Republican
journal, refuses to hoist the Geary flag.
1t will not support the Stevens-Douglass-
Dickinson platform, nor the local ticket
of the Radicals in Huntingdon county
The Hegs}l remarks, "for ourselves we
have only to say this week, that it is our
determination not to support any part of
the Republican District Or county ticket.
The Generalization of the Radicals in
Huntingdon county is further apparent
by the Herald's account of the meeting
of that party on the Sth inst. That
journal declares "the meeting was or
derby and respectable, but lacked the
numbers and enthusiasm which there
was reason to expect from the fact Of
two live Governors being advertised to
be present".-PAiladelphia Age.
