ScoLD1Na.-If laughing begets fat, it is
no less true that scolding is the parent OF
meagerness. Who ever saw plump terma-
CANT? The virago is craggy-cragginess IS
the badge of all her tribe. 1t would seem
that the attrition of a fierce, exacting temper
gives sharpness to the human frame as inev-
itably as gritty grindstone puts wire edge
on broad-ax. Artists understand this fact,
and govern themselves accordingly. They
invariably represent ladies supposed to be
given to ''the rampage" as remarkably high
in bone. Shrews are thus depicted in comic
valentines, and all the illustrations of"Curtain
Lectures" have presented the rib Of Mr.
Caude without particle Of fat. Lavater,
referring to female fire brands, says, fatty 70
their faces that their noses are sharp. We
have dim idea that he mentions some ex-
ceptional cases of ladies with snub-noses, who
are given to snubbing their husbands; out
those form q mild variety and only small
proportion of the genius scold.

CHINESE METHOD OF PRESERVING
GRApEs.-Travelers inform us that the
Chinese have method Of preserving grapes
so as to have them at their command during
the entire season, and recent author gives us
the following account of the method adopted
It consists in cutting circular piece out of
a ripe pumpkin, or gourd, making an aper-
turc large enough to admit the hand Ihe
interior is then completely cleaned out, the
ripe grapes are placed inside and the cover %,
replaced and pressed in firmly. The
pumpkins are then keptin in cool place and
the grapes will be found to retain theirtresh-
ness for long time. We are told that a
7ery careful selection must be made OF the
pumpkin, the common field pumpkin, how
ever, being well adapted for the purpose in
question.

Observation-Disclosures Greenwood, wri-
ting from Denver, says: mature did ante
lopes an ill turn originally, in afixing to
them mark by which they can be seen and
a bead drawn on them at distance. 1t
renders them especially liable to attack in
the rear-which reminds me ola little sto-
ry. A small Colorado boy, who had been
out playing, ran into the house in state OF
great excitement, saying he had seen some
antelopcs in a gulch near by. At his en-
treaty his mother went out to look at them,
but nothing of the kind was to be found
She became iucrednlous, and said at last: II
don't believe you saw any antelopes, my
child, it must have been your imagination

How TO Cook A HAM.-The late General
Winfield Scott, an acknowledged authority
in the culinary art, was of opinion that few
cooks knew how to cook a ham, because they

and and i if possible 81 de running water it was to be

sacrifice of quality to mere appearance,
which no sensible man should be guilty Of

hitherto given way to a sternness quite
unusual with the man, he begged to be
permitted to ask the gentleman from Orange
burg question.
Permission having been accorded, he
turned to Byas and said: Have you not now
in your pocket check for S12,203, which
was given you last year for reporting the
bill for fitting up the State House.
This was a hit that staggered Byas, and
with much staggering talk and many
muttered oaths, he left his seat and troubled
Hurley no more. He concluded his speech
by saying that when men 50 far forget them
selves as to sell their votes, he had sympathy
for them, but no contempt.
W. Il. Thomas next spoke, and he was in
turn followed by Yocum, the latter Of whom
commenced by saying, that he was one of
those happily disposed men who always, when
he found himself in the minority, yielded to
to the good sense of the House. But in this
instance, he was not disposed t yield to the
good dollars of the ring. .:'.
Bowen closed the debate by saying, that
he would make this proposition to thieves
and robbers. They had asserted that the
bonds were issued in accordance with law.
He challenged them to pick out an attorney,
and make up case involving the point for
the decision of the Supreme Court Of the
State. If they did not agree to this, they
must plead guilty.
At this juncture, vote was taken on the
resolution impeaching the State Treasurer.
and it was voted down by larger majority
than Scott received. The vote was as follows
on the call of the roll:

FoREwARNED.-A singular instance of
premonition of evil is related by corrospon-
dent of the Bangor Whg. A certain mu-
sician residing in that city, after playing at
ball in town some miles distant last Mon
day night, retired to rest as usual, but was
restless and unable to sleep, and sensation
of dread of something wrong took hold OF
his mind. He strove to shake it OH, and
courted sleep in vain. So strong did this
uneasiness become that he at length arose
and took the first train to Augusta, and i'm
mcdiately went to his home, where he found
his wife and little son of four years Of age
both nearly sufocated from coal gas: It
was a long time before they could be revived
Had he had been absent an hour longer they
would doubtless have both been dead.

LOVE 4YouR hIoTHER Little ones, do
you love your mother? You will never meet
an eye as tender, d hand as gentle, or aheart
.as kind as hers. No love viii ever be as
strong as that which she bears you. It was
she who nourished you in your infancy, and
Isoothed with pleasure, your feyerish cries,
when all other ears had grown weary OF
them. She would cool the. heavy brow,
change the heated pillow, and answer your
countless calls tall the stars paled in the hea-
yens, and yet no repining words escaped her
lips.
Itwas your mother who watched over
you in childhood, taught your lisping tongue
Its frst q
.your cnriursn huars was ruf n Joy; u Il
your brow was. clouded, with, loving words
and gentle manner, she was ever ready to
disperse it. In youth, she guided tho feet
which were so prone to err, into the paths OF
peace and wisdom.
Then We must love her who SO much lov-
ed us.
When you go forth into the world, if you
are in prosperity, many hearts will be thrown
at your feet; but so soon as fortune frowns,
these friends will desert you for one more
favored by fortune. IT'S then mothers
love will shine brighter; and in the depth
of her devotion will make you forget that
the worlds cold and cheerless; that friends
are false, and that life is disappointment.
Then let your mother see that you think
ofher; perform those nameless little atten.
tions which can only answer tho demands Of
loving heart.

Victim Of "Pasters''-A Humorous
Incident of the Rece1G Election. 4

i q -
Incident Of the Reee4E Election. 4.
Among the candidates for Office at the
late California election was one who was We.
~ anxious. On the day before the election
several acquaintance suggested that he
must secure pastors. ,zsss
- You can never win old fellow, unless
you can get pasters," said they. You need
q great number, too, for every body will
scratch in your fav or" q 81
The suggestion was pleasant. The candi-
date counted his cash capital, which lay IN
his right hand pantaloons pocket. After
wards he walked to printing house and
ordered the printing of thirty thousand co.
pies bearing his name.
s.s You Will have them gummed and cut,
|of course, said the printer. atssas
"No, I think not. I'll do it myself" re-
piled the candidate g..
obviously did the printer man look at
him, but, as the cash was paid, he said mo-
thing.
The printing was not done till after nine
o'clock at night, and the candidate, whohad
been walking up and down the hatchway,
marched triumphaptly toward home with his
thirty thousand pastors.
"About one half of them will be wasted"
thought he; the balance added to the.
straight ticket, will render my election GER
tain." -
They sat up ali night "fxingo the pastors
the candidate and his wife, and his wife's
mother and the eldest daughter spread mu-
cilage over the backs of the printed sheets
of paper; the daughter hung them on a.
line against the stove to dry; and the wife
and the mother cut until their hands were
stiff and swollen. One o'clock, three o'clock,
FIVE o'clock came, and still they worked
away, yawning at every clip of the shears.
The carpet was strewn with scraps Of paper,
the table streaked with mucilage, and the
candidate himself was perambulating court
plaster, so gummy was he.
g Ny dear," said his wife, at half past 5,

cut in two with the shears, and grand mn is

piled the candidate; I shall surely need them
all.n
aDea me r said she, sI didn't know
there we're thirty thousand voters in the
city"
"Of course you didn't; women are not
expected to know anything about politics"
The candidate had no sleep that night,
and 1t an, early hour in the morning sailed
forth to distribute his thirty thousand pas
tera. Then he g WORKED all day, spent, a.
god ffar ghiskeE arp 8. god
another twenty foss hours to see the ballots
counted. !, In this. precinct -1the same IN
which he had worked 80 hard-eight hun
dred votes had been polled, and of these ne
received two, one being by means Of pas
ter. His luck elsewhere had been no better,
and he went home. His wife greeted him
with smiles; she was sure that her hub
by-bubby had been elected. And in re-
sponse to her congratulatory caresses, the
brute turned most sayagely upon his wife
and said
"My love, yesterday morning circula-
ted thirty thousand pastors bearing my
name. In the whole city have received
just thirty votes. If ever you say 'paster
to me I'll sue you for divorce. l am going
