doors IN BUTTER.-A matter which
often puzzles dairymen to account for is
the peculiar and undesirable odor or flavor
frequently acquired by butter. Therefore,
the following hints on this point, by q
writer in the RatrdL NetU Yorker, who ap-
parently fully understands the art of maxi
ing good butter, will doubtless be of inter-
est to them:
1t is q common error among our butter
makers, particularly those who make but
little, to let the butter stand too long in the
churn, or in the butter-bowl, waiting to be
worked. There is no churn, there is no but
ter-bowl, perfectly clean. Wood will absorb
the oil and other qualities, and these will be-
come tainted and the butter will absorb the
odor. Hence the taste of the churn or ia
vor of the wood, and bad wood, in the but
ter, as we so often find it. It is less so in
winter, as then other havors overcome it
the taste of smoke, of garlic, and Of stables
principally. But now we urge, more par
ticulariy, to see that the churn holds the
butter only till it is gathered, and the bowl
till the salt is dissolved Then pack in
clean, flevorless jars or tubs-not old jars
or new tubs, unless water has stood long
in the tubs or they have been charred If
the buttermilk has been worked out, and
there are no foreign odors, and no excess
Of salt to make it bitter, there will be such |
an improvement that it will seem like new |
butter-like superior article-as it IL.

Cheap Pleasure.

Did you ever study the cheapness of
some pleasure? asks some writer. Do you
know how little it takes to make null
tude happy? Such trifies as n penny, a
word or smile do the work. There are
two or three boys passing along-give them
each a chestnut, and how Smiling they
look! They will not be cross for some
time. A poor widow lives in the neigh
borhood, who is the mother of half dozen
children. Send them half a peck of sweet
apples, and they will be happy.
A child has lost his arrow-the void TO
him-and he mourns sadly; help him to
find it, or make him another, and how
quickly will the sunshine play over his
sober face. A boy has as much as he can
do to pile up load of wood assist him
few moments, or speak pleasant word to
him, and he forgets his toll, and works
away without minding it. Your appren-
tice has broken mug, or cut the vest too
large, or slightly injured piece of work.
Say, You scoundrel, and he feels misera-
BILE; but remark, am sorry" and he
will try to do better.
You employ man; pay him cheerfully
and speak a pleasant word to him, and he
leaves your house with q contented heart,
to light up his own hearth with smiles and
gladness.
AS you pass along the street, you meet a
familiar face, say "Good morning." as
though you felt happy, and it will work
admirably in the heart of your neighbor.
Pleasure is cheap. Who will not bestow it
literally? Ii there are smiles, sunshine
and flowers all about us, let US not grasp
them with miser's fist, and lock them up
sn our hearts. No, rather let us take them
and scatter them about us-in the cot of
the widow, among the groups of children
in the crowded mart, where men Of bust
ness congregate, in our families and every
where. We can make the wretched hap
py, the discontinued cheerful, the afflicted
resigned, at an exceedingly cheap rate.
Who will refuse to do it?

a CONTRAST.

The Washington correspondent Of the
Cincinnati Commercial (Radical) presents
the following contrast:
sandy johnson during his entire official
life, from Alderman to President" never
accepted a present amounting in value to
$50. Grant, during a period Of less than
six years, has accepted presents amounting
in cash value, presents that money bought,
to scores of thousands of dollars. The only
one he was ever known to refuse was
the bitch pup from Cleveland, Ohio, on
which there were express charges
amounting, l believe, to $40. He
has accepted houses and lots, horses
and carriages, libraries and works of art,
live stock, furniture, wines, cigars, and, in
deed, everything that was offered. Those
who contributed the most literally were APP
pointed TO the best offices, and l cite 4. I.
Stewart of New York, Hoar of Massachu-
sets, Fish of New York, Borie Of Pennsyl-
vania, and Murphy of New York, as Speci-
men bricks. Although Andy johnson, when
he came to the Presidential chair, was worth
less money than Grant was when lie left the
Office Of General, yet he refused even the
compliment of number of rich gentlemen
of New \ Ork who were above officeholding,
when they offered Opresent him with pair
of horses and a family carriage. Johnson
was too poor TO drive handsome horses, and
his stables were Scanty enough. In the
White House stables, in Johnson's time,
there were five horses; there are now eich-
teen, including the sore-tailed colt.

"WITH the grand uprising which has over
thrown Tammany, a new impulse has evil
IDENTIFY been given to the popular determin-
alton to purify public administration every
where, to drive out thieves and corruption
lists from every official quarter in which they
have burrowed, to effect a genuine reform
Of the civil service, County, State and Ma
tional, and to elect only good and true men
to responsible offices of trust"
The foregoing is from the Cincinnati
Chronicle and Times, one of the most ad-
he5ive of the Grant papers. But from the
emphatic manner in which it announces
"the popular determination to purify
public administration everywhere, to
drive out thieves and coIrUptionists from
every official quarter it must be either
losing faith in the future success of the
Grant party or else preparing to expose and
9epsunce the corruption Of the concern.
