KEEPrNo FRurT IN OUR Rooxs.--
We should be schary of keeping
ripe fruit in our sitting rooms, and
especially beware of keeping it
about o. sick chamber for any
length Of time. The complaint
which come people make about
faint sensation in the presence of
frnit, is not fanoifnl-they may bc
really affected by it.; for two con.
tinental chemists have shown that,
from the moment of plucking,
apples, cherries, currents and
other fruits are subject to inces-
SAINT transformation. At first,
they absorb oxygen, thus robbing
the surrounding air of it's vital ei.
ement. Then they evolve carbon
ic acid, and this in far greater volA
nme than the purer gas is absorb.

close as possible, pouring the mo-
leases over each layer. When all
is thus placed in the cask, put a
cover on the top with sufficient
weight to keep the meat down,
and in the course of six or ten
hours the meat will be covered
with brine. Use no water. When
thus prepared, you can use it as
steaks or roasts as you desire, as
there is no more salt in it than
will make it palatable.r-n ss.-

2 To KEEP MILK SWEET. In very
warm weather, when it is difficult
to preserve milk from becoming
sour and spelling the cream, il
may be kept perfectly sweet by
scalding the new milk very gently
without boiling, and putting it
away in the earthen pan or dish
in which it has been SCALED. This
method is adopted in all the large
dairies in England. and particu.
larly in Devonshire. Cream al
ready skinned may be kept quite
sweet tor twenty.four hours if
scalded, but If as much powdered
loaf sugar be ADDED as will sweet

idea of his character. l have fire.
quently thought of this, in looking
over ten or fifteen volumes of let
ters, substantially bound, which,
in the course of a long life. I have
received from distinguished men.
And l have thought, too, that there
was u great deal of truth in the
remark. Judge CASTOR, accord>
ing to the rule, was all accomplish
ed gentleman. Everything about
his letters, as we'll as his hand.
writing, indicated it. They were
neatly folded and endorsed. There
were no fiourishes in his writing.
The hand was neat, plain and easi
ly read, aud perfectly uniform
throughout. 1t showed that he
never wrote in a hurry, and the
English notion is, that Il gentle-
man should never be in a hurry.
He should always be calm, seda ate
and dignified. Any one looking
at the handwriting of Washington,
would be apt to say that he was a
grave, dignitied gentleman, taking
time to reflect as we'll as to write.
On the contrary, the autograph of
Napoleon clearly showed that he
was in hurry, and did not give a
moment's reflection as to The char
ac er of his writing. All that he
thopght of was TO give expression
to ideas w!ich were crow ding his
mind. Tie had no respect for any
mere accomplishment.
Sadge CASTOR was one of North
caroiina's greatest, ablest and best

Herbs and Fruits.

All householders who are for.
tunate enough to own a garden,
says some one, should have bed
devoted to the cultivation of herbs.
A writer in a New York paper
goes fnrther, and demonstrates
that by cultivation a certain herb
near the roots of fruit trees, you
preserve the latter while enjoying
the benefit of the former. He
says he once knew large peach
tree which was more tiIan forty
years old, while several genera.
tions OF similar trees in the same
soil had passed away. This led to
an examination, and a bed OF tan.
sy was discovered about the trunk.
l. was naturally inferred that the
preservation Of this tree to such a
green aid age was attributable to
the presence of this plant. 1t was
decided to try the experiment on
others, and accordingly a few of
the roots were placed about each
OF the other trees OH tho premise,
some of which gave signs of de,
cay. Not only has it preserved
them for several years, but reno.
vated those that were nnsonnd.-
The odor of this plant, he says,
doubtless keeps off the insect enc
mics of this kind of, tree, and
would have the same effect on
others, as the plum, apple and
pear, as we'll as the sycamore anG
other ornamental trees. O.: 8. n.

To this honorable distinction Mr..
Perry is justly entitled. Before

the subversion of the constitution,
and not the restoration of the
Union, Mr.. Perry was staunch
Union man. After the war, he was
appointed Provisional Governor of
the State, and discharged the DEL
icate duties of his office with tact
and discretion. Upon the assem-
bling of the Legislature he was
elected United States Senator but,
like Gov. Manning and the Hon.
James B. Campbell: was refused
his seat. At that time the drama
of Radical reconstruction was about

we have nothing to expect. Mr..
Perry will, in fact, be the mouth

that each an arrangement is indis

Few persons imagine how much
knowledge and especially what va.
ried knowledge, it is necessary
man should possess to be a sue
cessful farmer. There is scarcely
a branch of science which is not
intimately connected with agricul.
ture. 1t is true a farmer may be
the most ignorant of men, aud
yet obtain good profits ont of his
holding; but this success is due
to inciden al circumstances be-
lyond his control, and from which
he profits ignorantly. Expert
'ence goes long way, but study is
necessary, especially study during
youth. A theoretical farmer,
without any practice or expert
ence whatever, will probably lose
his money; but a man who has
experience and also knowledge
drawn from books. will, other
things being equal, make $3.50,
where another, who has expert.
ence only, without the assistance
and hints given by the study of
various subiects and sciences, will
only make $3.50. Agriculture, or
rather farming, is. generally con-
sidered matter of luck and
chance; all faults and errors are
laid to the weather, bat the fact
is, that agricultural is a very ex-
act science.--Lie6sy.
