Victor Hugo and his wife have kissed
and made friends again.
Bayard Taylor seems intellectually on
the wsne. He does not write nearly so
well as he did, nor are his books half SO
popular as they we're. Horologically
considered, he has struck twelve.
Dickens's reading of the death Of Lit
tie Paul Dombey is by far the most eff
fective of his recitations, as those who
have heard it will testify. He moves
his whole audience to tears by his exs
quisite pathos. 7tala5 fs1al

needlessly lost because there was no

Currant leaves, when green, are
much used BY French country people
for tea in cases of difficult digestion.
The leaves have been distilled in the
same way as those of peppermint, balm,
etc, the operation being stopped when
the liquid obtained is equal in weight
to the substance employed. They
should be handled as little IS possible
in order not to crush their odoriferous
glands. This distilled water is good
vehicle for the stomachic notations, and
will keep two years.

STEEL PENs.-If steel pen is hard
and obstinate, refuses to yield when

used in the teuperins and prevents that

flow, generally noticed in all new steel

o'clock, P. NJ, between the Idlewild and Bel Air
clubs, on the grounds Of the latter, In DR.. Bonds
field, near this place. This game, when we'll
played, exctes much interest in the locker on
We therefore anticipates good turn out to witness
this match, as both clubs are regarded as good
players.
OF late the ladies have got into the habit OF
witnessing these matches in some neighborhoods,
and we know ofno good reason why it should not
be so here, for although we do not speak by au-
shortly, we know that their attendance, on Sat-
urday, wonld be very gratifying TO the mem
bers Of our club, and we have no doubt, to the
members of the Idlewild also. But beyond all
this, we have an idea that our young gentlemen,
thus stimulated would make better game /;
all of which is desirable as the Idlewild's fame
has preceded it here.
