About twenty pounds of butter is now PIT
on tho table, and the roller is turned. each
corrugation carrying through . long mar
row roll, which Is Immediately followed by
another and another, until the whole table
is covered. The roller does not quite touch
the table, and there is thus no actual crush
ing of the particles. The beveled blocks
slightly bend these rolls and crowd them to-
ward the centre of the slipping part, so that
when they reach the roller they are broken
in fresh places, and few revolutions are
thoroughly worked in every part.

many admirable theories relating TO the plan

NOVEL AND RELIGIOUS CEREMONIES.

Saturday, the 18th inst, was the Feast of
the Assumption of the Virgin Mother, or, as
it is POLITICALLY denominated in the loved
isle beyond the ocean waveE Lady Day
in Harvest" suspicious period, when the
granaries of the land are being seasonably
replenished. A land where the upheaving
pillows motion, as necessarily they dash
against the rugged, rocky coast, make me-
lancholy music; the echoes therefrom ever
mingling with the matin prayer of the peas
And fervently and felicitousy is the Lady
Day of the harvest home ?" month OBJ
served throughout the sea-girded country
of our sires. On the day cited, the Rev. S.
j. Foltier, the indefatigable and untiring
pastor of st. Vincent de Paul, having re-
turned from collecting tour, which, we
apprehend, was not over-fruitful in argent,
solemnized the festival in novel and i'm
posing manner. At early mass, Numbers
attended and partook of the blessed sacra-
ment At high mass, the servitors at the
altar were unusually numerous, some ten
or more. They made their entry robed in
SUPPLIES and soutanes, bowed reverentially
to each other, and then, separating, moved
to their assigned positions. The Reverend
Father, turning to either side, made obei-
sance to them. Fully half a dozen of the
boys wore also embroidered capes of purple,
crimson, and white, with golden braid and
tasselated fringe. One of them acted as
thurifer and incensed the sanctuary. The
pastor, in lieu of dispensing, as heretofore,
the holy water on the congregation while
passing through nave and aisles, stood at
the altar railing. A tiny servitor, at fitting
period, read aloud, in Latin, portion, we
presume, of the gospel of the day. Prior to
the sanctus all the lads, save two, tempo
rarily retired, but when it rang out they
made their appearance, bearing lighted ia
pers, ranged them in front of the altar, and
awaited, in solemn silence, the elevation of
the host and chalice, which was proclaimed
to the kneeling and rapt multitude by the
resonant and re-echoing sounds from a
gong. Immediately thereafter they re
paired to the sacristy, and there depositiDg
