Have passed since we commenced
the publication of Democratic paper

the same, and send us the needful, but
that tlSeyb will make an learhest.effort
TO induce theip aleighbors to!snbscribe,

those who are in arrears will remit the
amounts due, us, as we are greatly in

Order to shut of the Gas.

Yesterday evening, the Gas Light Com
psDy received an order from Ottarson and
smother member of the Gas Committee on
the part of the City Council, ordering that
the gas be shut of from the street lamps,
and that the city would be no longer re-
sponsible for the payment of that expense:
Inasmuch as the order was confined TO the
streets alone, and not to the Workhouse,
City Hall, Marketbouse and other depart
ments Of the corporation, the company
took it for granted that it was intended as
q matter Of spite, aud did not comply with
the order, feeling assured that the tax
payers wanted the lamps lit, and would
see to it, that the bill as usual was footed.
The courts have decided on a former &C.
easion that the men pretending to run the
corporation machine, are set of usurpers,
and 10 The face Of this decree, we would
like to know what right they have TO in-
terfere in the gas or any other department.

The Robertson Record copies the follow,
ing paragraph from late lumber of the
UNION AND AMERICAN
Gentlemen who have lately visited
neighboring counties give gloomy accounts
of the wheat prospect. Without an early
aud decided change for The better, it seems
to be the general impression that the yield
will be far below moderately good.
And comments as follows:
We wonder if any Of these gentlemen
visited old Robertson? Ii SO, they have
misguided our neighbors of the UNION
AND AMERICAN. There never was better
prospect for larger crop ever harvested IN
this county; and from accounts, this crop,
IN the bordering counties in the State Of
Kentucky, is equally as good.

shutting Off the water.

There was a report in circulation yes
terday that the city authorities intended
shutting of the water at the Reservoir,
but if any such movement was contem-
plated, the aforesaid have taken the second
sober thought, and arrived at the conclu-
sion that it would be unWise, 10 say the
least Of it. 1.-THE water had been shut of,
and the engineers discharged, it would
have only been the work of moment, for
We heard of st least a dozen engineers who
voluntarily offered their services, aud the
citizens generally would have seen that
they we're not interfered with.
The following card from two of the ex.
ecutive committee, however, shows thai no
uneasiness need be felt on the subject
To the Editors of the. Union and American:
NASHVILLE, June 4, 1S69.-Under-
standing that much uneasiness is felt lest
the water may be shut off from the city,
the undersigned called upon Mayor Alden
this afternoon, and were assured that no
idea Of that sort was intended or had been
thought of. OF this we felt assured before
the interview, and now say 10 the public
that all apprehensions of such steps may
be dismissed. JOHN NJ. Bass,

From the Hearth and Home"
The steak usually considered the best |
is cut from the loin, the piece formerly |
almost entirely used for roasting, and |
called the sirloin. This is the celebrated |
porter-house steak 1t has the tender
loin, with its delicious, set TAT, Cor these |
who like tender meat, and the .sirloin
which ia somewhat more highly aOVored
Theporter-house steak is better than the |
tenderloin or the tillet; the latter is very
tender, but it has not much faycE, and |
should be larded or served with some
sauce to be a good dish. The small sir
loin steak is almost as good as the p0fter-
house. A magnificent steak, and one
seldom cut in this eeuntry, is from Che
rib, say the second cut ribs, which are
usually counted the best roasting pieces
/ This steak, if properly cooked, can hardly
be excelled by the best portershouss. 1t
should be an axiom with all good markets
ers that steak can be properly cooked
that is less than an inch and quarter in
thickness and it is better an inch and a
half thick. ; ii2.i@ ~ q, s,'ea 1eye ~
To broil steak is easy, and at the
same time it is. diffienit sometimes to
make cooks appreciate the Importance Of
niinutise, and to force them to discard
certain old-fashioned, mistaken nOtionS.
To one familiar only with the results of
culinary operations, it will seem almost
preposterous to say that good steak
should not be pounded; but it is fact
that implements have been devised and
constructed for that purpose alone. Do
not pound good steak, but fatten it
little with the side of the chopper, trim
It properly, prepare it carefully, and cook
it rapidly.
| To prepare the steak, rub in salt and
pepper well with the hand, and grease
both sides slightly with sweet lard or
fresh butter. Use none Of the strong
butter of inferior quality, commonly
known as cooking butter. The steak
thus prepared should then be placed be-
tween the bars of a well-warmed light
| gridiron, so that it can be easily turned
over the fire. The preparation Of the
fire is the moSt important point of all.
The very best is clear fire of bright
hickory Goals The next best is q char
coal fire; but bright fire of ordinary
coal will brOil pretty well. 1t is indis-
pensable that the FIRE be hot and clear
and there should be no smoke from dFip-
ping gravy, which can easily be avoided
with proper care. Put the steak ever
the fire, and turn often until done.
When done, place 1t upon a hot dish,
sprinkle over it little more salt and
| pepper, spread over il a little sweet but,
ter, and let it be served and eaten imme-
diately. The difference in favor be-
tween well-cooksd steak eaten imme-
diately and one served five minutes after
| it is done is enormous.

The wheat Crop.

The Cleveland Banner of yesterday says;
"Some of our farmers are complaining
that the rust has struck their wheat, and
are fearful that it will be much injured.
We have taken it upon ourselves TO exam
inc the crop, and find that the rust COM
planned Of is confined to the ground blades,
and the stalk is perfectly clear of it-look-
ing healthy and vigorous. The kind of
rust complained of this season, can be
found every season. We do not care how
much the farmers complain and crOak, we
predict that the present crop will the best
that has been raised for many years. Our
information from the West, North, East
and South, represents that the prospect for
a heavy wheat crop was never more PROM
isiug" ......
