Is How TO MAKE Coon CoFFEE.-
Good coffee is luxury, but one that
is seldom met with. We give the
Following advice upon the subject OF
preparing it, from lady correspon-
dent of the Germantown Telegraph
aThe making of good coffee is q
rare thing in this country; most per
sons boil it, thus making decoctien
instead of an infusion; this effectual-
ly gets rid of the delicate and agree,
able aromatic flavor, and leaves q
comparatively tasteless beverage.
The following particulars will be
found worthy of attention. @sl
Never buy your coffee ground, but
grind ityourself, Immediately before
using it; keep your coffee pot, what,
ever kind you may use, wiped clean
and dry inside; damp tea or coffee
pot acquires a musty flavor that
spoils the best tea Ser coffee. The
cheapest and perhaps the best coffee
pots are those made on the French
plan, called ccfetseres. If you have
not one of these, adopt the following
plan: Put your freshly ground cof.
fee into the coffee pot previously
made warm, and pour upon it water
actually boiling; set the pot by the
side of the fire for a few seconds.
but do not let it boil up; then pour a
cupful out and return it back again
to the pot in order to clear it, having
done this let it stand on the hob or
center to settle, and in less than five
minutes a transparent, strong, aro-
matte cup of coffee may be poured
out. The proportions of coffee
(Which should not be too finely
ground recommended, are an ounce
to pint CT pint and half of water,
The milk used with coffee should
always be boiled, and used as hot as
possible; the boiling of milk imparts
a peculiar and exceedingly pleasant
favor to the coffee. White sugar is
recommended, as the molasses like
flavor of moist sugar quite oyerpow
ers the delicate aroma

IGzNsPLANTING TREES IN THE

Working Farmer says that he trans
planted ten cherry trees while in bloss
som. commencing about four o'clock
in the afternoon, transplanting one
each hour until one o'clock in the
morning. The trees transplanted
during the daylight shed their bios
SONS, and produced little or no fruit,
while those planted during the night
maintained their condition fully.
He did the same with ten dwarf pear
trees after the fruit was one third
grown. Those transplanted during
the day shed their fruit. Those
transplanted at night ripened theirs.

A SENSIBLE MOVEMENT. The Ap.
peal, commenting on late paragraph
in the LEDGER with the above caption,
quite demolshes us by speaking of this
journal as an "S by 10 contemporary"
and adds: docs our neighbor speak
for himself in abiding to more space
than thepreseat condition Of affairs de.
mands ;" "Our neighbor did not
"speak for himself" but simply com
mended the propriety of newspaper pub
fishers, like other business men, con-
tracing the Dimensions Of their journals
when business does not justify NAM
moth sheets. We take it for granted
that should business continue pros
trated, as doubtless it will, our
morning contemporaries will slough off a
column or two to save unnecessary ex-
pense. The LEDGER will neither increase
nor decrease its dimensions. If "9 by

to furnish nearly if not quite as much
and as valuable reading matter per
compositor's measurement, as any one
of its morning contemporaries. If this
can be done in pages Of seven or eight
columns each, why consume nine or
ten?
