President johnson.

President johnson, so fiercely assailed by
the hte'dteurs of New England, appears to
ers in England, even in the review organ of
the Liberals, the Westminster, an article in
which has done him remarkable justice A
paper of the same encomiastic character, also,
was published in the Fortnightly Review, the
editor of which is the husband of the author
ess of Adam Bede and Romola: and the last
number of the Edinburgh Review, contains
another in the same strain, much to the dis
satisfaction Of the mutual-admiration school
of writers in, OF colonized from, Boston.

Roman CathoIic Church,

recent number OF the Catholic World di-
reefs attention to the rapid growth of the
Roman Catholic Church in the United States
1t says nowhere has the Catholic Church
increased SO prosperously, within the last
fifty years, as in the United States of Ameri-
ca. About two thousand churches and cha
pels built an increase of one thousand eight
hundred clergymen; one hundred and sixty
schools established for the Catholic training
of $4,000 boys and $4,000 girls. Moreover,
there existed, in 1867, sixtysix asylums, with
1858 orphans, of both sexes; twenty-six hos
pitfalls, with 5000 beds; four insane asylums,
besides many other charitable Institutions, all
supported by the private charity of the Catho-

Raspberry vinegar.

Take four pounds of raspberries, pour over
them half pint of vinegar, place it in an
earthern jar, and cover it securely, so that no
air can enter, and place it in sunny window
twelve hours; take it in at night, and ace it
out again in the sun the next day for another
twelve hours. Then place in flannel bag,
till the juice has run through without pres
sure. Then for every pound of juice take a
pound of sugar, and boil it for quarter of an
hour, or till no scum arises; then put itinto
small bottles and well cork it.

The Offspring of Great Men.
[By Senior Fratrum.

Having seen that great men as q general
thing inherit their greatness from the female
parent | will now produce some facts in re-
gard to the offspring of great men, showing
why there are SO few great men whose fathers
were illustrious.
First. Many of the brightest stars of the
intellectual galaxy were never married,
prominent among whom We're Voltaire, Pitt,
the poet Montgomery, Lords Liverpool aud
Clyde, Washington Irving, and many others.
Second. Many prominent men, though
married, had no children. Corniele, Racine
Moliere, Fox, Lords Wellesley, Palmerston,
1.-THE last three no legitimate chidren,) Wash
ngton, Madison, jackson, Polk, and .lany
other Intellectual persons had no children.
Third. Intellectual persons are unfortunate
IN regard to male children Napoleon, Theirs,
Guizot Shakespeare, Milton, Ben Jonson,
Bacon, Newton, Locke, Reginald Heber, Lords
Nelson, Hill, Lynedoch, Beresford Give,

Fielding, Smollett, Sterne, Steele, Addison,
cooper, John Wilkes, Humboldt, and host
OF men eminent in every branch Of science,

1t is also lamentably true that very intel
leclua men, who have male children, have
.hs misfortune of seeing them die ere their

Vther cases might be included in this article,

lae conclusions drawn from this article
\ and that on "The Mothers of Noted Men" are
inst: That the mother has greater influence
over character moulding than the father. Sc
cOad, That male offspring of intellectual wo-
men are more apt to live than those of intel
lectual men,
Third. Intellectual men are not, as gene
raj rule, apt to have children, and,
Fourth. If they are so blessed, their child
rem are almost always girls,
Fifth. Those men who inherit an active,
large, intellectual brain from the father, are
almost always sure to be precocious, and by
sfaining their brain constantly to the highest
activity, striving after the name of the fathers
greatness, they bring on physical disease, fol-

Heroic women OF the south.

Some days ago, we called public attention
to the fact that Major John Esten Cooke is
now engaged in the composition of book in
tended to illustrate the character of our
"heroic women" as illustrated in the late
war, and we here copy from the Wing the
concluding paragraph of a long and beauti-
fully written article on this subject. Our
contemporary says:
Than Major Cooke, no writer is better
qualified for the undertaking he proposes to
embark in He-is soldier, scholar, and a
gentleman. He understands the character of
Southern women, and his graphic pen can
portray it to the life. In collecting material
for this labor of love, he will require much
assistance. 1t is his earnest wish and request
that all who are interested in this undertake
ing will send him all such material as they
are possessed of, or can procure-for instance,
personal acts of hsroism on the field, or else
where; statistics of charities in hospitals or
private houses; incidents of fortitude and self
sacrifice under trial or suffering, or any in
stances oil particulars that will assist in de-
lneation. His address is Winchester, Va

How to Make Mutton.

A Canadian, having some fine sheep for
sale in the New York market, was asked his
method of fattening them. He said that a
sheep to be good and profitable should be
kept growing all the time--never suffered to
fall back or get poor. They were fed all the
hay, peas and oats they would eat in winter.
Peas produce more tat than corn, and oats
more muscle. In the turnip season he gave
them all they required, in addition to other
food, with supply Of pure water and salt.

A young lady, whose name was Mayden

which gave rise to the following epigram

Into lump of salt.
