Women Baseball PLAYER.

The yourg women Of PeierbOro. ~ n,
y alOus Of the popular sports enjoyed BY the
more muscu lfr portion Of Mankind, have or
gSnizCd baseball club, and have already
arrived at a CT oitabe degree of proficiency an
play. There are about fity members belong
ing 10 II, lrom which playing nine has been
chosen, headed by Miss Mamie Miller as
captain. The nine have played several game
outside the town and away from the gaze OF
the curious. Having thus perfected them
selves, this nine lately played public game
m the town of PeterbOro. a. may well be sup-
posed, before n multitude Of spectators, which
ls thus spoken OF:
This consiitub the senior rine. aud on the
occasion Of their first exhibition they played
the Junior nine OF the same club. Their dress
consists of short blue and white tunes, trim
med, white stockings and stout gaitsr shoes,
the whole forming a combination that Is a.
once neat, easy, and exceedingly beauaful.
As the two mines came upon the ground n
would BE- hard to tell which OF them hal the
greatest number OF friends present, for loud
and continuous cheers aud clapping OF hands
marked the estree Of either one.
Without loss Of time Mrs. Y. :. Smith WAS
chosen umpire aud Miss Martin aud Mrs.
Benny as scorers. The penny was Tipped To
see VINO should fi-st 20 20 the bat. and the Jun
and the remainder OF the nine stood ready TO
follow suit. But she was caught out on a nv,
and before her friends had time To make a single
score, they Were sent 10 the field. From the
moment the seniors went TO the bat they had
thing their own way Notwithstanding the
b. Z efforts of the juniors they would either
foul out OF knock the ball high. and inning
WIS given up without a run to marx their stay
AT the bat"

Puttin- up Pickles. Ac.

In answer to an inquiry, as to "how to put
up pickle, the same as are generally put up in
gar, the Rural American gives the following
directions:
The cucumbers are first made in the ordi-
nary way, and then put up In glass Jars, VITA
pure cider vinegar. TO render them more sala-
ole. In The process CT picking, brass vessels
properly cle.nsed, are preferable to iron. n
vinegar should be allowed 10 cool in them, a
this would tend TO the formation OF verdIgrIs
" hlch Is an active poison. Vessels that have
any greaGe, or fatty substances about them,
should also be rejected as unsuitable, and in
TACT none should be used that are not perfectly
sweet and CLEAN. Having prepared your re-
cepiaele, make liquor by boiling alum and
salt N vinegar IN The proportion Of Iwo-thirds
OF te;scupfui OF pure salt TO tablespoonful
OF alum Ia three gallons OF vinegar. Ii any
scum rises, boiling should be resortsd 10, and
all the exuan GUS matter taken of tilI the
liquor is reduced TO state OF perfect purity.
Moderately strong vinegar is the best for
pickle. Should n lose its strength, il NAV be
drawn oil, and tresh vinesa substituted. The
b'st cncumbers Tor picking, are those that are
small aud green, ana OF tolerably rapid growth.
In taking Them from the vines, they should be
cut ana not pulled on, and as much OF the stem
should be pre- erved ON the fruit posi- Die.
They should then be placed in a wooden vessel,
or .arthen Iar. and have the boiling water
poured over them. n this water they should
remain four or five hours, when they should
be removed TO another vessel and have cold
vinegar poured them, and In which a spoonful
OF alum and a cupful OF clean salt hss been
dissolved. When you have done picking Tor
the season, oecant the liquor, and scald and
skim as above directed, until n Is freed iron
ell eXiraneous matter, and rendered perfectly
pure and clear; then put In the cucumbers and
scala Uithont tofling Tor fiye minutes, and
turn 1ht IN 10 the Jars while hot. Cucumbers
preserved in saturated brine, may be prepared
for picking, simply by so.kiug and scaidIng.
When his process is adopted, no salt need be
add. d 10 the vinegar Ii peppers or spices are
deemed desirable, they should be add. % the
liquor while hot, and before il Is introo uced TO
the pickles. Some pickle their cucumbers by
taking Them from the vines, aud alter having
washed them thoroughly, place them in a mix
tire of New England rum and mola. SEES In
this way very excellent pickles are made, aud
with very little trouble or expense. A few
bell peppers added to the mess, Will tend TO
impart good flavor, and give a pungens t-ste TO
the vinegar. The Icing prickly cucumber is
perhaps the most elegant for picKling, although
the green cl ulster Is d very desirable variety for
the purpose.

FROM me osWeEo IN. j fdlidOlu m
Yesterday rural looking lady and gentle
man, of Sterling, Cay uga county, called upon
one Of the justices Of the peace and expressed a
wish to be maj ried. The pair were made man
and wife. This morning they reappeared, and
each il turn desired ;hat the proceedings might
be annulled. The lady was particularly urgent.
She charged that she had boen entrapped into
marrying the man who stood beside her BY
piece Of unparalleled deception. She had been
corresponding with her co0sin in Iowa. whom
she had hot seen since she was u child, and
during the correspondence her relative had

The magistrate suggested he had not the
