The Principle Which Gives Relish to
Food and Drink,

Much too little has hitherto been thought
by psychologists, and almost nothing has
been written on that beautiful provision
Tor our happiness by which everything
that Is useful as food or drink is most
agreeable to the palate, so that the higher
our relish for any given article, the more
perfectly is 1t digested, and made to supply
the wants OF the system; we have, there.
lore, natural guide to the right kind of
ioou al the right time, and, on the other
hand, have disrelish for articles which.
not being suited to our condition, would
be injurious. But little reflection will
show us that in this adoption of our pal-
Gtes to the peculiar taste or osmazome of
every distinct article of food, we have a
faithful sentinel, inviting the admission of
friends and protecting us from the an.
proach of enemies.
Place before child who has never
tasted of sugar, or butter, or superfine
Hour, or any other elements of food that
have been separated from their natural
connections, and whose tastes are there,
tore unperverted, milk, uubolted bread,
meats, fruits, or any other natural food,
ana he will choose just that article which
Is best adapted to his condition at the
time, and may be trusted to eat as much
as nc plSdseS.
But the taste is perverted with food in
which the flavor is excessive, as in butter
sugar, tine flour, etc, and it is no guide,
but deceptive.
And here we are liable to err. Our
natural gustatory pleasures are not in pro
portion 10 the amount of osmazome in our
lood or drink. Natures tlavors are yery
delicate, and the very choicest relish is
that produced by very slight traces OF
osmazome, For example, take nutmeg, a
very slight grating of which will flavor a
large bowl of porridge. Attempt to in.
crease the relish BY increasing the quantity
OF the spice, and you utterly fail, making
your beverage less and less agreeable as
you increase the quantity of nutmeg, till
II becomes disgusting, and positively in.
furious TO the digestive process and this
is true of all other condiments, and in.
deed, all other good things. Delicate
havors are agreeable and useful in prompt,
ing digestion but every article which
Is capable of promoting health and hap.
pineSs in appropriate quantities, is capa.
BILE OF doing harm in unnatural quantities.

convenient tool for the purpose of remov-

Prussing's Vinegar.

We would call the attention of our read.
ers to the advertisement of Prussing's
Vinegar. Being free from vitriol and
other poisonous acids with which the
cheap vinegar, especially that from the
East is adulterated, it is justly celebrated
for its purity and healthfulness. The
good housewife knows its strength, and
the epicure its flavor; the chemist is
aware that it is pure, and the general pub.
lie acknowledge it to be the cheapest and
best article in the market. Pickle makers
prefer it to all other brands, as it never
moulds though it certainly does sour on
them. At whatever fair Mr.. Prussing has
exhibited his vinegar he has invariably re-
ceived the first premium for it, Having
been established for the past twenty years
he has succeeded in erecting the largest
works of the kind in the United States,
yet we are told he can scarcely supply the
demand, as those who use his vinegar will
have no other DdpsnpOrt Democrat

Pruning and TransplantIng.


The principle cannot be too often re-
peated and TOO thoroughly understood,
that pruning tree in spring after the buds
have expanded, or later when in full
growth, always checks its vigor to great
CT or less degree. This check is greatest
in the cherry and least in the peach. II
is nearly as severe in the pear, and less so
In the apple. But in all these trees, a
greater or less check is given by pruning
after tho buds have opened. Whatever
cutting away may he needful should
therefore bo done early. Young trees
which have been budded last summer
should be headed down before the buds
swell, and the same care taken in grating
young trees in which the removal of the
top is required Early grating is less
essential In large trees, where but small
portion needs removal in the operation.
Suckers, which sprout up around larger
orchard trees, may be most easily taken
off later in spring by placing the foot,
covered with thick cowhide boot, on the
sucker, or between IL and the tree, and
then giving the shoot sudden Jerk with
both hands-which for this purpose should
be furnished with good buckskins If
these suckers have commenced growing,
they will be less likely TO start again.
In traDsplanting 1t Is of the utmost i'm.
portanco that the ground be in good con
diton - deep, mellow and properly
drained Spread out the small roots Of
the trees while setting, that they may
serve as braces all around, and hold the
trees firmly in the soil. Fill up all the in
terstices among the roots, and especially
Just below the loot of the stem, which is
most apt to be left with cavity. Cut
back the young shoots of the head of the
tree, SO as to give It good even sym
metrical form, taking out all super
numerary twigs, and making it as light as
may be. This must be done before the
buds swell, as we have already explained,
or it will do more harm than good.-C CoUH-

TIE NURsERY.-The May number of
this splendid little magazine for youngest read
ers contains over twenty telling pictures, with
reading matter to correspond. The Nursery has
been introduced into the primary schools of Lee,
Mass, and the school committee, In their report
for April, 1863, say: 1--WE have seen the interest
with which children take up this magazine. There
is nothing stale about It, and each month 1t may
be changed. The reading lesson thus becomes a

looks forward with pleasure" Published by
JOHN L, SHoREY, 13 Washington street, Boston,
Mass. $15Oper year, with extra inducements to

THE Book BUsINEss.-But few persons
have any proper comprehension of how vast is
the book business in this country Take one
" item" for instance, as illustrative: Matthew
Hale Smiths " SUNSHINE AND SHADOW IN NEW
YORK," which is the exciting work of the times,
is selling at the rate of 200 copies per day and is
sold exclusively by agents, (see advertisement In
another cOlUnn) The publishers (J. b. Burr &
Co., of Hartford, Conn., use two tons Of paper
a day and run six large roller presses constantly
to supply the current demand. This is doing
Wholesale business with one book alone. This
Is n large work too, 1t must be remembered, be-
tween seven and eight hundred pages royal oc-
tavo, and yet 1t rivals in rapdity of sale UNCLE

number of the small books published. Surely
ours is a reading country.
