How to Make M0lasses Candy

This is the season of evening So
cials, "candy pulling" is often an
element of the happy entertainment
An exchange suggests the following
mode of making the ''taly," which
is decided Improvement on the old
process, which requires from one to
three hours to complete il:
For small number, say four per-
sons, the following quantities will an
swer. For larger, increase pro-
portionally: One tea-cupful of mo
lasses; half tea cupful of any kind
of sugar; a teaspoonful of vinegar; a
piece of butter the size of half. a nut
meg. Put the whole in skillet, on
hot fire, and boil exactly ten min
utes, stirring itall the time; then set
it off to cool. Pull it as soon as it is
hard enough.
If you want some nice candy to
eat, add tea cupfnl OF hickory nut
kernels to the above compound, and
stir while hot Let it cool and it will
be ready for use.

SELECTING SEED C0RK.-We hope
farmers will give attention to the Sc
lection of seed corn during the husk-
ing season. The "breed" of corn
can be improved by selecting the fin
est for seed, as that of animals by at
tention to breeding. Every farmer
can tell which ears are the best. The
quantity in proportion to the cob, and
the weight in proportion to quantity,
will determine the question. After
experimenting little the signs of
the best can be so determined as to
identify the ears that should be
saved. 1t is important also to select
ears that grow low on the stalk,
since, other things being equal, more
of the vigor of the plant goes to
grain when the ears set low than
when they shoot out high as a giant
can reach. Some allowance is, how
ever, to be made for the more or less
favorable conditions under which the
stalks grow. The size of the stalk
below the ears is also to be consider
ed. When both are equal in this re-
spect, we believe the one bearing the
ear the higher on the stalk will be
found to have the less corn.

rag Carpets.


We have occasionally noticed ex-
nressions of contempt for rag carpets
IN agricultural journals. Some la
dies have expressed their scorn oi
the labor of making rag carpet,
when good carpet can be bought
for 81 so per yard; and even man
has given expression to the same
sentiment. Not long since we saw a
calculation by man that a rag car
pet made by his wife cost 81 90 per
yard. We know woman-not the
wife of one dependent upon hard toll
for living, but one who would De
presumed from her position to feel
herself little ''too proud" TO make
rag carpets. This woman has just
completed one that has cost as fol-
lows:

Warp, SSG
Weaving, 20
no.., sI7 25
Yards of carpet, 20
Cost per yard,
Carpet worth 81 so, - %
Clear profit, 30 20
We put the value of the carpet at
81 so because it is worth more than
any that could be bought. Now sup
pose the good woman had taken the
advice OF .hose writers who are so
disgusted with rag carpets, and pur
chased one st 81 so. She would have
been out of pocket $50 so instead of
SO 25, and before her rag carpet
will be worn out two store carpets
will be entirely gone, and with. them
S105 of money instead Of SO 25.
There are not many women who get
money more largely than by making
rag carpets. They are better than
any other for kitchen and dining
room.

APPLE DUMPLINGs.-As this is the
season for apple dumplings, allow me
the liberty Of saying that they can be
made so that every one, even of del
icate digestive powers, can eat them
with impunity. Of course, lam say
ing nothing but what good house
keeper must know already, when l
recommend that the dough, if it may
be so called, should be made of about
one part -four to six parts of pota-
toes, boiled and mashed thoroughly,
md every lump removed. 1t makes
good paste, and the dumpings can
3e enjoyed by every one without the
fear of after unpleasant results.

To-Morrow's Election - Sclden and
Church.

The 7riJUae objects to SANFORD L.
CHUnCn for the Chief Judge because he is a
Democrat, and FOR the further reason, as it
alleges. that he is not a gcod enouEh lAwvar
for the position and it prefers Mr.. SELDEN
because he is a Republican, and has been a
Judge.
Mr.. CHURCH is liberal Democrat, and Mr..
SELDEN is liberal Republican. The latter
is doubtless n sound lawyer though for many
years his attention was almost exclusively
devoted to carrying through the overland
telegraph line to the Pacific, in which he was
large stakeholder; and he was for short
time respectable Judge of the Court of Ap-
peals, finally resigning that Office on account
Of i'll health.
Mr.. Church has for thirty years boon
practising lawyer. BY virtue of Ills Office,
first as Lieutenant Governor for four years,
and then as Comptroller for two years, he
was a member of the Canal Board, Com.
missioner Of the Canal Fund and of the
Land Office, for.six years. In these positions
he was engaged IN adjudcating uron ques-
tons of the santogencral character and of
equal importance with those which pass in
review before the Court of Appeals. Those
who witnessed his discharge Of those duties
need not be told that he performed his varied
trusts with extraordinary ability, and proved
that no possessed an eminently judicial and
well balanced mind
a II bctrays an entire ignorance of the con-
dition of the canvass for Republicans to direct
their attacks ut Mr.. CHURCH for that is not
the vulnerable point in the Democratic
ticket very far from it. Besides, unless the
Republicans show moro tact and zeal in the
closing hours of the canvass than they have
yet exhibited, the only thing left for them to
do is to determine upon which two of the As
socintc Judges on their ticket they will con-
centrate their strength, aud thus bring them
in as the two minority candidates to be
elected.

traders, who have paid the expenses OF

burscd themse YES by the management OF

how remunerative business this must be is

be abolished by the triumph Of the Cuban
Republic, no more brbos or profits from the
Infamous slave TRADE will DO possible, no
more false registers of births or deaths re-
quired and the numberless host Of the
slave-traders' hangers-on will find their oc-
equations gone forever. And this is the
cause which tho United States not only pas
sively tolerate, but have been, and arc at pre-
sent, effectively assisting As we hope to
escape the just reproach for our past conduct,
let us, the great American people, unite to
stop this iniquity while we still have the

Gov. Holman and the Arcade Rail-
road.

For rensons which we publish in another
part Of this paper Gov HOFFMAN has sent TO
the Secretary of State, without his approval,
the act authorizing tho construction of the
broadway Arcade Railroad. He analyses the
act, and objects to number Of it's provisions
with more or less energy, but his principal
ground seems to be that nothing is required
to be paid into the City Treasury in return
for the privileges which the bill Processes to
confer upon the Railroad Company. Consid
ering that the whole undertaking is, as he
says himself difficult and costly one, and
that its success is problematical and consid-
ering, too, that all the citizens and property
holders in the city would be immensely ben
Gifted by 1t If IL should succeed, this OBJ
lection would seem to be much more captious
than solid. Tho Governor might better have
confronted himself with refus ng to sign the
bill, and not have argued the question at all
The simple truth is, that Gov. HOFFMAN
has succumbed to the pressure brought TO
bear upon him by some of the millionaires
who own real estate on Broadway, and who
iNNA Niisie may PosSihiy
diminish its value. He has taken the side of
the rich against the poor; of the capitalists
against the laborng classes; of the oristo-
Gratis against the people. Hc has turned
deaf ear to the cry of the toiliug thousands
who demand cheap and rapid transportation
between the upper and the lower part of the
city, and listened only to the appeals of gen.
tlemen with heavy bank accounts We pre-
sumo his conduct will be remembered should
