away throwing them all out, breaking
three of Mr.. Cnidwell's ribs, one of
them penetrating the lungs, causing
death ia few hours. Mrs. Caldwell
was slightly injured, but the child
escaped unhurt. Mr.. Caldwell has

HOw?-We were amused little the
other day, at being told that Maj.
Atherton's speech, published in the
Democrat OF the 18th inst. as having
been delivered at Attica on the 18th,
was not all delivered as published
especially the part about Railroad, &c.
The question comes up, whether the
Major forgot part of his speech when
he spoke it, or whether he didn't deem
it prudent TO recite it all there, under
the circumstances. How was it?

| to cool. 1t is claimed that the flavor OF the
fruit Is better preserved in this way than in
any other.
All fruits that are used in their fresh state
for pies, etc, and Rhubarh or pie-plaut, and
Tomatoes, Green Peas and Corn cannot be
readily preserved in families. rs they require
special apparatus. Strawherries-hard flesh
ed, sour varieties. such as the Wilson-are
better than the more delicate kinds.
Currents need more sugar than the foreco-
ing. BlackherrieS and HuckelherricS are
both very satisfactorily preserved. and make
capital pies. Cherries and Plums need only
picking over-Peaches need peeliug aud quar-
/ tering. The skin NAV be removed from ripe
peaches by sealdiag them in water or weak
I've for a few seconds and then transferring
| them TO cold water. Some obtain strong
peach flavor by boiling few peach meats in
the syrup. We have had peaches keep three
years, aud were then better than those sold
st the stores. Pears IRE pared and halved,
or quartered, and the core removed. The
best high favored and melting varieties only
should be used. Coarse baking pears are un-
satisfactory. Apples - Very few put up
these. Try some high favored ones, and YOU
will be pleased with them, Quinces-There
is great contrast between ounces preserv-
ed in this way and those done up in the old
way Of pound for pound. They do not be-
come hard, and they remain of fine light
color. Tomatoes require cooking longer than
the fruits proper. Any intelligent person
who understands the principle upon which
fruit is preserved in this wav, will soon find
the mechanical part easy of execution and
the result Unsatisfactory. -1mericaa Agricalttr-

The editor of the Colorado Herald had oc-
casion to leave town for two or three days,
and he committed his paper during his alb
sence to the charge of q young nan, novice
in Journalism, whom he had Just engaged as
his assistant. Before leaving he instructed
the ambitious young editor not to permit any
chance to 90 unimproved to force the paper
and the very small size Of the subscription
price upon the attention of the public. AL
ways keep before your mind the fact that the
object of tais paper is to extend its circula-
tion," he said land whenever YOU see
chance to insert puff of the herald in any
notice you make, pile it as thick as you
eau. Keep the people stirred up all the time,
you understand, so that they will believe the
Herald is the greatest sheet in the United
States" The parting tear was shed. and
the editor left the following night, while he
was far away from home. his wife died very
suddenly. Upon the assistant devolved the
duty of announcing the said intelligence to
the public. lie did it as follows:
''GoNE But FORGOTTEN"
We are compelled this moring to perform
duty which is peculiarly painful to the able
assistant editor, who has been engaged on this
paper at an enormous expense in accordance
with our determination to make the Herald
nrSt-cIasS journal. Last night death suddenly
and unexpectedly snatched away from our do
mestic hearth (the best are advertised under
the head of stoves and furnaces, upon tho

Well, the editor arrived home that day at
noon. Slowly and sadly he was observed to
arm himself with double barreled fowling
piece, into which he inserted about two
pounds and a half of bullets He marched
to the Office, followed by an immense crowd.
The assistant editor was busy painting a big
placard to be tackled on the hearse. It bore
the legend. ''Buy your collins at Simms.
