ICE HoUsEs.-One twelve feet square is
large enough for common family, and will
keep ice SO that there will be plenty to
spare. The house should be double walled,
with a ten inch space between the weather
boarding and the plank lining, filed with
dry sawdust, tan bark, shavings, or some
other similar loose material well packed
down. There should not be the least chance
for water to stand, nor for air to circulate at
the bottom. The ice should be laid upon an
open floor, covered at least a foot thick with
straw. A gentleman of our acquaintance
first covers the floor with layer of straw,
on which goes the ice. The same person
uses wheat chaf to fill in around the sides
between the ice and the walls, and to cover
the ice with. If there be enough chat,
neither straw nor sawdust must be used to
pack around or cover the mass of ice. There
should be double doors in the gable end and
sufficient ventilation to secure change Of
air and prevent that close, damp, warm at.
mosphere which is often perceived in un.
ventilated ice houses, and which is the cause
Of rapid thawing and loss Of ice.

ard, who, with Mr. Evarts, endeayored to
ward off the attacks. The ring claims to
have made Grant president, first, by de-
featng the republicans last year, and thus
killing of Chase, and rendering Grants
nomination inevitable; and, secondly, by
raising the money to carry Pennsylvania
and lndiana,-thus securing Grants elec.
ton. They are afraid of President John.
son, who has discovered how much they
have humbugged him and are, therefore,
anxious to delay action until Gen. Grant is
in authority, when they think they can ap.
peal successfully to his gratitude. II is
known that about $20,000,000 revenue was
sacrificed to defeat the presidential Rspira
tinns of Judge Chase; and "a greater effort

WASHINGTON, d. c., Nov. l4.-The gov

ed revelations of the whiskey rings. Presi
dent Johnson says that the afhdavits are Sc
strong on both sides, for as well as against
the internal revenue officers, that he was al.
most unable to decide the cases submitted
to him. He declares that he is half inclined
; to accept the rule of law regarding the pre-
ponderance Of evidence and act on that -
district Attorney Courtney having shown
that the persons who made sffidavits agans
him are under indictment in New York, the
president has decided not to suspend hiu
from Office and he accordingly left for New
