BigamT I'm Connecticut.

AcuriOus case of bigamy was deveI-
oped at the police Office yesterday after
noon, and the settlement of the Diff
Guilty was as amusing to OUtsidersas it
was seemingly satisfactory to those
interested.
The parties were all cOiored, and the
facts, as near as can be ascertained,ar are
a. follows. About six months ago,
Henry Franklin, aged about 20,
was living in Newark, New Jer-
sey, with his bUxom wife, Mar
tina. The joys of welded bliss
were marTed by Franklin learn
ing that his hitherto better half had
another husband living. His con-
science was so troubled that he could
live with her no longer; 50, packing
up his clothes, he suddenly left his
happy home in Jersey, and came, a
voluntary exile, to Elm City. Three
months of single bleSsedneSs were
enough for him, and having met an
other kindred spirit in the person OF
the widow Wilson, he took her for
his wife, whether according to act OF
assembly is not known. His second
trial at matrimOny was as satisfactory
rs the first, to all appearances, and
until yesterday he and Mrs. Wilson,
now Mrs. Franklin No. ?, had not
had the even tenor of their way dis
turbed.
In the meantime the original hus-
band of Mrs. Franklin No. l, who
had also remarked had been con-
victed of crime and sent to prison,
which, by the laws of New Jersey, alb
solved her from the marriage contract
ShelOnged for the warm heart and low
ing embrace of her Henry; hence her
appearance at the police office yes
terday. Mr.. Franklin was sent for.
When be met Mrs. F. No. face tC
face, tears of mingled joy and sorrow
trickled down his sable cheeks-jOy al
meeting his former love and sorrow
at the thought of separation from his
present devoted. No. was willing to
forgive the past and receive back hel
wandering lord, regardless of the feel
ings of No. 2, if only .Mr.F. was willing
While talking the matter over No.
appeared. and Immediately got upon
her dignity and declared she would
no longer live with a man who haC
another wife, and, wishing them both
much joy, she departed. Franklin and
No. then INDUCED in fond embrace
and left to partake ofjOys they had once
tasted. Wife NO.2 seems to have been
a widow only in name when she went
to live with Franklin, and her former
husband is now living with another
woman.

How to Salt and Preserve Beef and
Ham,

We have selected the following re-
ceipts and submitted them to a nOta-
bic housewife, who prOnOunces them
good:
Sailing BEEF FOR SUMMER USE.
-16 quarts of salt, and 4 ounces of
saltpetre for each 100 pounds of beef.
Rub the pieces all over with salt, and
pack it edgewise, and after layer is
completed, take an axe or maui and
pound down solid. Then sprinkle on
a little saltpetre and fill up all inter
stices with salt, and so on until the
cask is full. Those who do not like
saltpetre may omit it without injury
to the meat.
Mr.. A. Wanzer, who communicate
ed this recipetO to the Albany CuLtiUGtOT',
SAYS he has salted his beef in this way
for fifteen years, that itneeds no soak
ing before boiling, and will be tender
and sweet the year round. By this
way of sailing it makes its own brine,
and never wants repaeking, nor the
brine scalding. If the brine should
not cover it in the spring, sufficient
may be added for that purpose.
Take a barrel and turn it over an old
pan or kettle, and burn cobs or hard
wood for seven or eight days, keeping
water on the head of the barrel to pre-
vent its drying.
Make pickle as follows: OF. Of
saltpetre, qts. of molasses, gallons
of water, for each 100 lbs. of ham,
Boil and skim the pickle thus prepar-
ed. Pack the ham in the barrels, and
when the pickle is cold, pour it on to
the meat, and it four week it will be
excellent, very tender, and well smOk-
ed.
ANOTHER a pickle as fol-
lows: qts. of molasSes, 3 OF. of salt
petre, and 8 gallons of water, for each
100 lbs. of beef or ham. Boil. these
over a gentle fire, and skim the scum
as it rises. Pack hams with thesbank
end downwards, and when the pickle
is cool, pour it over them or the beef.
They win require to lay in the pickle
from two to six weeks, according to
the size of the pieces and the state of
the weather-as they require to lay in
the pickle longer if the weather is
cold.-NetO England Farmer.

Damnable Conduct OF q Husband
Shocking Brutality.

A horrible case of brutality occurred
in Waterbury, Conn, on Saturday.
A man named Alexander McCirady
came to that town from his farm,
some few miles away, and had become
slightly intoxicated, when ne started
to return in the evening. On the way
he quarreled with his wife and threw
her from the wagon breaking one of
her legs below the knee. Then he
cause she could not walk, rs he or
dered her to do, he beat and kicked her
in Il shameful manner, and threw her
again into the wagon. When he
reached home lac pitched her from the
wagon into the back yard, and hav-
ing cut every particle Of clothing from
her, tied a rope about her body and
dragged her under shed, leaving her
there naked and half insensible im the
bitter cold air. After the monster had
carefully stabbed his horses he went
into the house To bed. The woman
would certainly have perished, had
not bOarder in the house happened
to go into the shed about nine O'clock,
and there he found and succOred the
unfortunate woman. McGrady has
offered half Of his farm To compromise
the matter, but il is 10 be hoped that
he will receive the punishment from
the courts which he so richly merits.

And mark the new turned sod
aye talk as women talk; trust
My chastity TO God"
Scarce could the Sexton dig the grave,
And shoulder up his spade,
With elods Of grass and damp thick earth,
Still elinging TO the blade
Scarce could the lady fall along,
And hide herself within;
Ere the cIoister walls, from end to end,
Were full of martial din.
Above the seeming grave,
Don Pedro's jeweled plumes were seen
Across the court TO wave.
Straight towards the proress and nuns
The furious monarch came;
Wrath smoulderlng in his deadly eyes,
His checks with wrath aaame.
Oh, wonder, miracle OF grace,
With every step he took
A flower rose lightly from the grave,
And in the brcezes shook.
Lily, and violet, and rose,
Shot up, budded and bore,
Shedding such odOrs in the sun
AS flowers ne'er shed before.
The alder sank its hollow tubes
Far down into the tomb,
TIL all the damp air underneath
Was banished with perfume
Betwixt the white roots OF the flowers
The tender grass peeped out,
While through its spears long creepers trail
ed,
And coiIed their stems about.
So, when the angry monarch's step
Had stayed its headlOng speed,
multitude OF roses blushed
Between him and his deed.
Naught saw he nigh him 10 betray
The Iady's hiding-place-
Naught but a little mound that seemed
FIowcred Ger by years of grace.
No whisper from the frightened nuns,
No breath Don Pedro greats,
Save the soft breath of tranquil flowers,
An eloGuenee of sweets.

May soothe a fiery soul,
And with some subtle, mystic power
It's raging heats control.
But, certes, from that spot the king
Turned with calmer air,
Muttering low phrases To himself,
That sounded like prayer.
All sill, rs in Il holy trance,
The blessed lady lay,
Nor knew how heaven had wrought until
The king WAS far away.
Nor ye who read, nor who write,
Know not how DER our heads,
When peril frowns, Gods tender hand.
Such fragrant bounties spread.

The GrOans OF the Afflicted.

The Fifteenth Amendment is OBJ

ratification by the Ohio Legislature is
distressing to Democratic feelings. 1t
was therefore to be expected that the
air would be burdened with Democrat

party. Hear il aS it thrilled with woe

This is narrowing. For Bates, Hill

their prOfessed friends was bad
enough, but for Cunningham 10 prove
faithless, the man placed in the Speak

the betrayed Democratic party, gasp

through and through by unkindly
blades, reproachfully turn its dull eye
on ungraetful Cunningham and sigh,

to his inmOst soul the force of the old
