PAPER PETTICOATS.

An exchange says the uses to which paper
can be put seems to be in no way exhausted
yet. Paper collars have become :; great fact
of the present nineteenth century, but what
will ladies say to paper petIicoats? These
have been produced with great success. and
will rival in every way the snow-whlte and
elaboratey ornate garments poor male NOR
tails are accustomed to look upon with fear
and reverence. We have all heard of the
artist who used to make caricatureS of his
friends upon his shirt-collars, and the author
who inscribed an epic upon 4 couple Of doz-
en- of the same useful article of attire Thus
we see field of great usefulness for the pet
tcoats for the future. Young ladies can
make sketches from nature on their own pet
ticOats Every damscl her own Sketch-book,
will be their motto. Poets can inscribc SON
nets to their mistress ankles round the hem
of her petticoat. Mothers can have fairy
tales, alphabets and small scholastic works
inscribed on their garments, and so instruct
their children us they walk about with them.
Fancy the announcement, MADAM Percalc
begs leave to call the attention of the ladies
about to visit the seaside to her new and
chly-embroidercd pctticoats ut one shilling
each. Each petticoat contains an installment
of a new novel of great domestic interest, by
Mr.. Anthony Trollope, entitled 'lueks or
Frills. The story will be complete IN fifty
weekly petticoats." There is no reason what
ever why journalism should not be repre-
sented in this way. For example, the Daily
Petticoat, a journal for ladies'; or the Weekly
Pianforte and Girls Gazette. Albany Argus

GOOD PICKLEs-HuW TO MAKE.

There are several ways practiced for making
ckleS, as cuclmbers tomatoes. &c, somc good
some, bad; some, poisonous. The old-iashoned,
and still most common way. is to salt them down

out and put in vinegar wanted. Besides the
tnne required TO freShen them-tWo or three weeks
much soaking about ruins their flavor and soft

We have tried various ways and found none so
good ls this Wash the artclcs-say, cucumbers-
clean and keep them in strong pickle a hours.
Rinse off the pickle and ponr over them good cider
Vinegar scalding hot. Spice with anything to suit
red peppers, cloves mustard, &c. Be sure the
vinegar j. the real cider. and not the vile artificial
stun sold for it. Pickles prepared in this way are
alvay ready for use; are hcahful, palatabe, and
keep as well As amy good thing will. A little alum

There are two ways much pracced vi rendering
pickles highly poisonous. Most people like to see
them look green, and for this purpose boil the pick

NATURAL SCIENCE.

Matter. Whatever occupies space, whatever we
can see or touch is called matter; a word derived
from some foreign languages signfying the stuff or
materials Of which things are made. Earth, water.
air, are different forms of matter
Those kinds of matter which have weight exist i'll
three forms; solid, liquid and aerform.
Solid bodies are those whose particles do not move
among themselves, as rock and ice; liquids those
whose particles do so move, as water; acritorm
means having the form of air; and matter is said to
be IN this state when its atoms so rcpel each other
as TO spread out indefinitely as steam. They are
sometimes called gases and vapors. Both liquid
and aeriform bodies are also called fluids.
Most all kinds Of matter may be made to assume,
and often do, all these three forms; ice, water
and Napor-and in the order of clouds, rain
and ice ;-noSt, if not ali, minerals and earth also,
by the agency of right heat, may be put into the
solid. liquid and gaseous forms.
The science that treat, of these properties and
laws of matter is called Natural Philosophy, which
signifies searching for the truths which relate to the
material world.
Matter is also distinguished as simple and COM
pound bodies; simple when it cannot be resolved
into more than one element or thing, as iron, or
gold; compound when the thing consists of more
than one element. as water, wood, Nc. and the
which nstructs to these elements Of mat
ter--hoW TO separate the elements of compound
bodies into the simple ones that compose them, and
how to combine the simple ones TO make com

A pleasantness of duty;
Whose worth is shrined within her heart
As well as in her beauty.

With hearts and bumpers brimmin',
Nor can it be sin for me
TO name her best of women
The sparkle of the crystal Wine
Shall be her bright eyes shining,
The garlands round the beaker's brim
Shall be her ringlets twining;
And so We'll claim golden name
From every charm about her;
For angels know that here below
We could not live without her.

The angels seem to hover,
The paragon Of loveliness,
With naught in life above her;

BRIGHAM YouNG', THEATRE Mr. Crosby
$. Noyes, Editor Of the Washington o. O.
Star, now on Il tour to California; gives tn,
following description OF the theatre patron
lied BY the Latter Day Saints:
Saturday night we visited Brigham Young
theatre. l4otta was the star and the play
''The FREELY" It was put on the stage very
well, and very we'll performed by \ stocl;
company of amateurs, members OF the Nor
mon Church. A Mrs. Claw9on, one of BRIG
ham Young's daughters, and wife of the man
ager, was on the stage, taking the part OF
Marquise. She had graceful figure and
went through her part pleasingly, bni is no
actress. The theatre, which seats about l7OC
| people, is q handsome building. but hy no
means sustainS the eNtrayagant culogiums of
| BoWles, who, in his ''Across the Continent ?
ranks it in elegance of structure and finish,
costumes and scenery, along with the opera
houses and Academies OF Music of Boston,
New York, Philadelphia, Chicago and Gin
cinnati.' Such language is simply absurd
in fact we find that Bowles is good deal on
the gtlsh all the way through his book. Brig
ham Young owns the theatre, but does not
run it. 1t is leased by II. Is. Clawson and
John r. Game, Clawson being one OF the nu-
merous son-in-law of Brighsm. brigham
goes frequently to the theatre and occupies
sometimes private box, but for the most part
q large rocking-chair in the middle of the
parquette, that part of the house being
reserved for the Saints, and the GcnticS
being assigned to the dress circle The
theatre seems to be a place of social even
ing meeting for the Mormons and most of
the prominent Mormon families were repre-
sented in the parquette Two entire slips in
the parquette next the rockingchair were re
served for Brigham Youngs families, and
were occupied by them, as was also long
side slip having Il private entrance. Those
occupying them were mostly children, with
4 predominance of girls. Young was not
present and his rocking chair was occupied
first by Brother George A. Smith, First Coun-
sellor to Young, a stout, .jovial-looking per-
sonage, with q tlorid face and u red wig. He
was succeeded in the rocking-chair by Mrs
Brigham Young a stoutish, plainly dressed
woman of forty, y,who in turn gave way to Brig
ham Young, Jr., also heavy of build, and
somewhat bald He was in Washington last
winter, it will be remembered. Slip No. GS
is allotted to the family Of the late lIeber G.
Kimball, and the odd sight was presented of
seven OF his sons, all nearly Of size and
dressed alike in linen coats, sitting in a row.
Slip SO, behind this, was occupied by Daniel
Il. Wells, Mayor of Salt Lake City. One Of
his wives, and enough of his children to fill
out the slip, were present. Three Of his
daughters are pretty cnoughto be bellies any
where. The audience was decidedly demo-
cratic in appearance. Most Of the men, in
cludng the high dignitares, Wore linen coats,
and one young man was in his shirt sleeves.

The Bath Times says there is rock in the
Androscoggin river, just above the toll bridge
at Brunswick, which rises some fifteen feet
above the water, and will weigh Is or 20 tons,
but which was never visible there before this
spring. 1t is supposed, says IN exchange,
that it became frozen into the ice last winter
and was thus transported to its position, or
else that it has been lying heretofore near
where it now is and was merely turned up by
the ice freezing to it and the force of the wa
ter. 1t is quite curious fact and affords a
a practical illustration of the power of ice
and water.
