The Art Of Making a Loaf Of Cake

Begin by getting in readiness all the
utensils and ingredients to bc used. See
that the oven is at proper temperature
Rich cake requires slow even oven
plain cake q quicker heat. Never add
fuel when the cake is baking. Line the
tins to be used with buttered paper.
The fruit shonld be prepared, the -four
sifted and meat ured, sugar, butter and
milk, also apportioned out, the eggs laid
in cold water to make them beat light.
Never mix sweet and sour milk.
. Dissolve soda in q little water and
strain cream of tartar or baking powder
must be sifted In with the -four. S,fl
spices through 6ne hair seive, and strain
the yolks of the eggs.
The order Of mixing the ingredients Is
as follows:
Put into on earthen dish the required
amount Of butter; stir with . wooden
spoon until fine cream is formed, mex,
add the yolks OF the eggs, then a little Of
the -four, and very gradually tho milk,
stirring the batter ali the time, then the
aavoring and spices, lastly tho whites
beaten to stiff froth alternately with the
remainder of the -four; now beat the
batter until the ingredients are thoroughly
Incorporated; this will insure light, fine
grained cake. The best way to put in the
fruit, after dredging them with -four, is
in alternate layers with the sponge as you
put in the pan.
Put the cake Immediately in the oven
and watch carefully so much depend.
upon the baking. Avoid draft Of cold
air while opening the oven. If the heat
of fire is too great cover the cake for q
while with piece Of brown paper. Try
with broom splinter If it comes on,
quite free from any particles of batter
the cake is done. If desirable to remove
the cake At once from the pans, transfer
it to the top Of = seive until quite cold.
The cake keeps much better, however, to
remain in the pans Cake must not be
frosted until quite cold. A stone jaI
aud clean piece Of linen will keep fresh
. long time.
Stale cake may be steamed, and eater
With hot sauce, which make an excellen,
pudding. .-Household.

Departed this iife, at Columbia, s. c., Au.
gust II, 1870. CHARLES Is. MARTIN, second
son of w. l.. and Anna Is. Martin, aged ten
years. one month and twc.Ity days. He leaves
\ number of friends to mourn his loss But
with God he weeps not; ho suffers not; he
sins not. So our child has broken tho chrys-
Ais of time and spread his wings and upward
own into tho clear light and jovtal liberty Of
Heaven.
Charley. darling my second blessing,
1t almost broke my heart,
When thou Tert forced to 90;
And yet for thee know
Twas better to depart.
God took thee in His mercy,
A lamb untasked, nntricd,
he fought the fight for thee;
He won tho victory,
And thou art sanctiied.
Look around and SEQ
The evil ways of men
And oh, beloved child,
I'm more than reconcilcl
To thy departure then.
The little hand that clasped me,
The innocent lips that pressed
Would they have been as pure
Till now, as when Of yoro
lulled tAeo on my breast. W. l.. NJ.

Tho state Fair and Fairs In Genefal.
v5The Fair Of the State Agricultural
and Mechanical Society will come of on
the 9th, 10th md 11th of next Novem-
Der. The Executive Committee have
offered an attractive premium list.
The buildings and the grounds are to be
improved. Itie confidently anticipated
that the next State Fair will be great
success, as respects both the visitors that
are expected and the articles and stock
to be exhibited. Let all prepare to make
their contributions. The importance of
these industrial enterprises cannot be
easily exaggerated. Hence we wish the
amplest success to our State Fair, rs
we'll as to the Charleston Fair, to be held
on November 1, 2, 3 and f. It is by
material development that the South is
to redeem its fortunes. It is not the po-
litical trickster and domagogue that is to
work out our salvation; but it is the ar
tisan and the planter whose energies are
to restore this section it's power, in
,Auence and dignity. Mr.. Burwell, the
editor OF sDeBoeo's Review. is right when,
lin an article on 'fthe political philosophy
OF Agricultural Fairs" he closes thus:
ssWhat the politicians cannot do, the
planters will achieve. What the con-
xquerors have not been able to effect, the
.maohinists and manufacturers are max
ling very successful. Industrial recon
struction comprehends, and must pre-
cede, political reconstruction. Uncon-
sciously, the interested agencies which
organize the fairs at which Northern and
Southern interests are kneaded together,
will solve the problem of reconstruction,
and We shall be again one people, not
merely homogeneous, but reciprocal in
all our material interests"
Let our Agricultural and Mechanical
Fairs, then, State and local. receive full
attention. They make power. They
bring distant communities together
They diffuse those ideas that go to
secure the independence and dignity of
the South.

named George W. Bennett, supposed to
be a native of Connecticut, but who for
some months past has been living with
his wife in Augusta, mysteriously dsap-
peared from that city last Friday. It
appears that for some time past his
wife's mother. residing in Newberry
County, s. O., has been treating, through
Bennett, with Col. II. E. Beuhler, real
estate agent, for the purchase of place
near Augusta. She remitted by express
$3.50 with which to close the trade Ben
nett obtained the money from the ex-
press Office, and left his room between 4
and o'clock Friday afternoon, ostensi-
bly, to purchase the property desired by
Mrs. Morgan.

A Treatise on the Preparation snd Deli.
very OF Sermons, By Rev. JoHN "a.
BRoADUs. D. D., LID, Pfofessoy
in the Southern Baptst Theological
Seminary, Greenvillo, 81. @. Smith,
English d CO., Philadelphia.
Let no one refrain from purchasing
this book under the idea that It Is mere
text book, or is useful to students OF
only sacred rhetoric. It is one of the
most readable and interesting treatises
on the. art Of oratory ever written. The
whole literature of the subject, in the
best writer's, ancient and modern, is re-
viewed. Every one who has to speak to
others, or desires information on this
subject, or who would 80 cultivate his
tasto as to hear, with appreciation,
preaching or any other public speaking,
will find this book cminontly useful. 1t
is so charmingly written as to force q
continued perusal when onco taken IN,
and so full of valuable suggestions that
one will feel inclined to recur to it again
and again. This will be especially true
of public speakers for whom-as contra
distinguished from writers-it is cspcci-
ally written. In this it differs from
other books of rhetoric, which fail to
distinguish between tho art of writing
and that Of speaking, except SO far ms
mere utterances or oratory is involved
He who studies this book will soc in how
many other respects differences may be
traced, and such, too, rs it is we'll for
every speaker to know and appreciate.
The author is we'll known to have COM
bined several qualifications for his work.
Not only is his reputation we'll establish
ed as one of the best scholars and most
successful preachers Of the day, but from
his lecture rooms in tho Seminary has
como the report that bis greatest excel
lonce is an instructor. Upon the sub
ject on which he has written he has
taught for ten years large classes Of pu-
pills. The publication year ago, there
fore, that this work was in preparation,
excited no little expectation. We feel
warranted in saying that this expectation
has been fully met. We cordially com
mend the book to all public speakers,
but especially to ministers, and more es-
pecially to all those who are at the begin
ming of their ministry. Surely all such
should be anxious to know how to speak
effectively. And here is an able trentise,
by one we'll qualified to treat tho subject;
and by one who evidently believes that
much more is gained in this direction by
work and study thnn is generally sup
posed. 3.

The inhamed passions of the times,
which have kindled into blaze upon
the banks of the Rhine, are not to turn
away with the settlement of that contest
alone. All neighboring countries, says
the New Orleans Times, appear to have
caught the infection. In Spain the revo-
autionists are on the verge of an out
break, and republic is almost inevita-
ble. Italy is preparing to realize her
dreams of conquest, in marching upon
Rome Austria stands armed and ready,
eagerly awaiting pretext to plunge into
the conflict. Russia is moving her
troops and gathering strength for the
time she imagines imminent, when the
shattered armies of now contending na-
tionalities are all to go down before her
victorious hosts. Even in England,
among the people, we find the same in
fectious fury rampant. and for tho first
time in reign of thirty-throe years
their, till now, beloved sovereign, has
been publicly hissed in the streets Of
London. Are we to believe, as the
liberalists of the day are fond of assert
ing, that this is all owing to the spread
of Republican doctrines? We fear not;
there is too much violence; too much
disregard for the rights Of others; too
much hot blood, with its hatred of race,
caste and condition, to warrant such n
claim. Republics born in tumult are
invariably short lived; to be enduring
they must rise upon sounder and surer
foundations, carefully laid. without haste
or passion. The present whirlwind of
revolution sweeping throughout Europe
is but the preceding storm of coming
republicanism, which is to sweep away
the old ideas and traditions, without
which the new plant cannot flourish
vigorously. It's halcyon days are not
yet; when monarchy dies, it will die
bard. The republics now struggling
into existence amid such tempestuous
scenes will only prove bantlings at best,
the prey Of the first strong audacious
arms striving to assail their liberties.
In these mighty throes and commissions
of civilization, o thirst for change and
progress is plainly to be traced The
germ is there ripening; let as hope it
will be developed yet within the nine-
teenth century in glorious tree of lib
erty, beneath whose shelter the nations
OF the world can gather together in unity
OF thought and purpose, in long pros
perity and peace.
