1HE MADISON ELoPEMENT.-The reporter
Of the Herald, whose story of the elopement
Of John Smiths wife with one Ben. Burdick-
which was copied in brief into the Telegraph,
and since been declared TO be fabrication
comes TO the defense of its truth with COM
mendable earnestness and no inconsiderable
chasteness of diction. Such display of the
positive is well calculated TO establish its ve-
rscity, were it not for the fact that our Paines-
vile contemporaries, who are supposed to be
familiarly acquainted and in daily intercourse
with their immediate neIghbors, and whose
ignorance of such a delicious utbit-ene so
likely to fix the attention of every dweller in
both town and county-could hardly be, after
diligent inquiry pronounced the whole thing
fabrication. Then, too, there is another con-
sideration that would seem to make the path
OF doubt rather easy and rational one Per
maps the hippant reporter may not have forgot
TENT. A bit of sensation scandal some months
since found its way into print at Detroit, we
think the scene of which was laid In an ada
cent town TO Madison, and which involved the
reputation of seminary of high standing, the
author of which was wanted, and pretty dill
gently looked for with a sharp stick. So.
therefore, the presence of little latent skepti-
csm in reference to the Ben Burdick stories
should not be matter of much suFprise or
disturb the equanimity of those who tickle
their fancy" by the relation of them.

PRINTERs' STATIONERY Notwithstanding
the amount Of jobbng material used in the
Telegraph Office, and the length of time it has
been carried on, we occasionally have Gus
toner who, under the idea Of making a saving,
proposes to so out and buy his own paper,
cards, or what not. For the information of
such it may be well enough to say that our
purchases and use Of stuck is altogether greater
than any merchant in the village; and as these
in the line of printers stationery can be sup
piled by us at lower rates than by any of our
neighbors

Can a Mother Forget?

i Can mother forget? Not morning,
noon or night, but she looks into corner of
the kitchen where you read Robinson Cru
soc, and thinks you as yet a boy. Moth
ers rarely become conscious that their chill
drcn are grown out of their childhood
They think of them, advise them, write to
them; as though not full fourteen years Of
age, They cannot forget the child. Three
times day she thinks of those absent from
the table, and hopes that next year at far
thest she may just ''have her own family
there" and if you are there. look out for
the fat limb Of a chicken, and coffee, which
nobody but everybody's own mother can
make. Did Hannah, forget Samuel !? A
short sentence, full Of, household history,
and running over with genuine mothers love
is telling and beautiful /: Moreover, his
mother made a little coat, and brought it to
him from year, to year, when, she came up
with her husband to the sacrifice. u 3..,s s,s1s
A mother; mourning at her first born's
grave, Or closing the eye of child in death
displays grief whose very sacredness is
sublime. But bitter. heavier than the stroke,
is the desperation, of son who rushes over
crushed heart, into vices which he would
hide even from the abandoned and vile.

France needed for the education of youth !;

Learn Young.

There are few men of middle age who
have not had occasion to regret that they
did not acquire this Or that valuable knowl-
edge when they we're young. They feel the
need of it now, but they have no time to
learn it. 1t is hard for middle-aged man
of business to become student again. The
task requires leisure, seclusion and an
abstraction, which he cannot afford to accord
to it. The demands of business are impe-
rious and peremptory, and when uttered
must be obeyed on the instant The world
is laundering on in this year of grace as it
never went before 1t barely allows man
time to read the newspapers, and even that
must be done in the way of business. and
as matter of duty. For man in active
life to withdraw for a few hours a day to
study books, as he did at school, would be
like immuring himself in sepulcher. and
treated by the stirring world Of business as
dead man. Once fairly embarked in bust
ness, he will have to make the stock Of edu-
cation acquired up to that time, "do," for he
will have no chance to increase it. The
world needs him, and claims him and if he
intends to live in the world and for the
world, he must acknowledge the claim and
go to work. with all his might, with the
tools and materials he has. He may wish
to read systematic course of history, or to
possess thorough knowledge of engineer
ing, astronomy or geology which he neg
lected in his youth, and which he feels the
need of now in business and in society. But
unless he possess uncommon resolution and
discipline, he will find it impossible to gain
the coveted treasures. a1 aza.a s@l 5st1
Let young people learn, then, while they
are young. All that they are ever to know
Of history, the languages or tie practical
sciences, must be learned before they are
twenty fve-probably before they are TWEEN

subjects that will not be useful in life; they
can neglect nothing that they will not feel

EouAL1rY After all that can be said
about the advantage one man has over an
other, there is still wonderful equality in
human fortunes. IF the rich have wealth,
the poor have health if the heiress has booty
for her dover, the pennyless have beauty for
theirs; if one man has cash, the other has
credit if one boast of his income, the other
can of his influence. No one is SO misera-
bic but that his neighbor wants something

RECEIPT EoR PRESERVING GREEN CoRN.-
A gentleman who says he has used the fol-
lowing receipt for preserving green corn for
the past five years and found it successful,
recommends it to others:
Take the corn when it is sufficiently ma
tured for table use, remove the husks from
it, and boil it nearly as much as you would
if you were going to use it ON the table let
it cool cut it from the cob take any sized
stone jar, put the corn in the jar with com
mon salt; first layer Of salt half an inch,
then layer of corn two inches pack close
ly; then half an inch of salt and two inches
of corn, until the jar is filed tie a cloth
over the jar, and set it away. It will not
form brine, and will only take up certain
quantity of salt, SO that there is no danger
of putting too much on it, To prepare it
for use soak it over night in fresh water, re-
move the water in the morning, putting on
it fresh water for short time. Stew and
serve up for dinner. %

TIN CANs.-,A correspondent Of the Phil
adelphia Ledger gives a method of closing
tin cans, which he states completely obvi-
ates the usual difficulties of unsealing Take
one pound of rosin and a tablespoonful of
lard and melt them together, the lard rem
dering the rosin less brittle when cold. At
ter filing the can with fruit place the tin cap
in position, then take a piece OF strong mus
lin larger than the opening in the can, smear
one surface with the melted rosin, and fit
smoothly and accurately over the tin cap;
when cool smear the upper surface of the
muslin with the rosin, ~ The can is readily
opened with the application Of hot water
Glass jars, tits stated, may be sealed in the
same way, The above method has been
tried for several years, and. it is asserted,
has effectually preserved the canned fruit
from the air, while allowing ready access to
the contents of the vessels.
