palpable hit last night before good audi
ence: In addition to the fine acting in the
TWO interesting comedies. the portraitures
OF !L,lngard We're most admirable, and the
facility with which the metamorphoses
were made, truly amazing. lie is a rare
genius in his line, as all who have seen him
freely admit.
THIS evening the splendid French comedy
entitled delicate Ground" will be pro.
duced, to be followed by original sketches
by Lingard, and the whole to conclude with
the fine old English comedy of "Naval En-
gagements." This is good bill, and will
no doubt attract another large audience.

How TO EXTRACT CoFFEE.-A scien-
hhc paper says: If coffee, after roasting,
were made as fine as flour by pounding in a
mortar, it could be extracted SO much bet
ter as to require no more than two-tifth. as
much as If it were coarsely ground. An
equally strong extract can be made by al
lowing water to stand on the ground, as by
giving it boil or filtering through it. The
latter method is the true one for retaining
all OF the aroma. When coffee beans are
roasted, an empyreumatic oil is produced,
which being volatile, is expelled if the cof--
fee extract be boiled. 1t is better to make
the grounds as fine as flour, and to extract
by filtration, and never to boil.
