ters of an hour.
Lemon and Saet PIddnag.-Take

Though Of quite a dark shade of red

paler and paler as the froth rises, and
when finished is a very pale shade of
pink. Apricot jelly can be used also,
but requires some drops of cochineal to
give it proper tint of color.

rather more quickly, making it always
touch the bottom of the jug, until the
mixture is brought to the point OF boil
ing, when it must be instantly taken
from the fire, or it will curdle in n mo-
ment. Keep stirring it till nearly cold,
then add some brandy and few drops
of essence Of almonds. This makes a
small quantity of custard, but enough
for tipsy cake, or perhaps it would fill
eight custard glasses.

Woman's Rights in Maine.

Last week we announced the admis-
sion of two ladies to the Bar of Utah.
This week we have similar adyices from
Maine. The Machias Republican gives
us the following interesting particulars:
A pleasant and somewhat unusual
event took place in the L. 5. Court last
Tuesday afternoon. On motion of the
Hon. James A. Milliken, Mrs. Clara
HapgOOd Nash, Of Columbia Falls, was
formally admitted to the Bar as an At
torney-at-Law. During the session of
Court in the forenoon, Mrs. Nash had
presented herself before the Examining
Committee, Messrs. Granger, Milliken
and Walker, and had passed a more
than commonly creditable examination.
Alter the opening of the Court i'm the af-
ternoon, Mr.. Milliken arose and said:
May 1t please the Court, hold in my
hand papers showing that Mrs. Clara
napgood Nash, OF Columbia Falls, has
passed the Committee appointed by the
Court TO examine Candidates for ad-
mission to the Bar as sAttorneys-at-L Law,
and has paid to the County Treasurer
the duty required by the Senate; and l
now move the Court that she be ad-
mitted to this Bar as an Attorney-at-
Law. In making the motion am not
unaware that is a novel and unusual
proceeding. 1t is the first instance in
this county and this State, and, so far
as am aware, the first instance in New
England, of the application of a woman
to be formally admitted to the Bar as a
Practitioner. But knowing Mrs. Nash
to be modest and refined lady, of fine
literary and legal attainments, l feel
safe in assuring Your Honor that by a
course of honorable and high-minded
practice, and by her pleasant and eOurte-
Gus intercourse with the members of
the profession, she will do her full part
to conquer any prejudices that may now
exist against the idea of women being
admitted as AttOrneys-at-Law."
Judge Barrows, after examining the
papers handed TO him, said: 81 am not
aware of anything in the Constitution
or Laws of this State prohibiting the ad-
mission of a woman, possessing the
proper qualifications, to the practice of
the law. have no sympathy with that
feeling or prejudice which would exclude
women from any of the occupations OF
life for which they may be qualified.
The papers put into my hands show
that Mrs. Nash has received unanimous
of the eXaming committee, as
possessing the qualifications requisite
for an acceptable Attorney, and that
she has paid the legal duty to the Coun-
ty Treasurer, and direct that she be
admitted"

A SLAP IN THE FACE.-The effective
force which women are bringing to the
present political canvass compels eX-
preston from new friends and old foes,
which, to say the least, is very in
structive and encouraging.
The last word is from the Springfield
Republican, called out by the crowded
Republican meeting held in that city by
Mrs. LivermOre, Mrs. Campbell, and
Mrs. Harper this week.
1t "prOtests against the folly of at
taching the wOman's cause, with all its
high and fine issues, to a corrupt,
materialistic, doomed political Organi
zation like the Grant party"
1t claims that, "to the Liberal party,
belongs the future, with all its hopes and
refOrmations," and warns us that it is
not wise to 'slap this new party in the
face" This is decidedly cool, after Gin
einnati, Baltimore and the Liberal State
Conventions, every one of which rejected
or ignored the claim of woman, whether
made by herself in person or by her
friends.
1t is too late now to claim any future
for the so-called Liberal party. 1t
sought to save its life, by thrusting aside
with seorn this greatest vital question of
the hour, and so lost it.
The Republican party on the other
hand, with its great work for the freed
men nearly finished, added long life, and
future for all time, grandly linking It's
fate with the enfranchisement OF fifteen
millions of women who know their
friends, and who will not go back on
them. Already, in eight States, the Re
publican party has had the help of
women, in crowded political meetings,
where the gathered thousands needed
no police, where order and quiet reigned,
showing that the "good time" has al
ready begun to come, when politics shall
be decent for men because it Is shared
The true wisdom now is, for tie
friends of women, who were carpet
bagged at Cincinnati to hasten to the
Ren1blican party, make its cause their
own, and so find a political life that can
live. because it shares an immortal
principle.

MHEN TIE DARK CoMErH.-A

WHEN THE DARK CoMETH.-A little
girl sat, at twilight, in her sick moth
er's room, busily thinking. All day
she had been full of fun and noise, and
had many times worried her poor,
tired mother. "Ma," said the little girl,
'what do you suppose makes me get
over my mischief and begin to act good
lust about this time every night ?l 81
do not know, dear. Can you tell me
why" "Well, guess it's because this
is when the dark comes. You know /
am a little afraid Of that. And then,
ma, begin to think Of all the naughty
things I've done TO grieve you, and that
perhaps you might die before morning,
and so / begin to act good" "Ohp'
thought /, show many of us wait till
the dark comes, in the form of sickness
or sorrow, or trouble of some kind, be-
fore we begin to act goodp How much
better to be good while we are enjoying
life's bright sunshine! and then, when
the dark comes'-as it will, in meas
ure, to alive shall be ready to meet II

The argument to which the Golden
Age paid so much attention year or
two ago, namely, the right which the
existing national constitution, by its
fourteenth and fifteenth amendments,
strictly interpreted, gives to women las

illustration in the recent Presidential
election. We have already mentioned
that Mrs. Huntington registered in Con-

A DEFAMATION FOR A SMALL BOY
Keen still! That's what they say to us
bows. Just as if there never had been
any noise in the world until we were
horn. Haven't old folks all been boys
and girls once? Didn't some OF them
drum ON the milk pans, or crack nuts
with the fiat-iron, or slam the doors, or
come down stairs sliding down hill
fashion? Everything that is smart goes
off with bang. This would be dull
world II it were not for the racket the
bows make. Noisy boys are not always
saicy. Some are; but we don't train in
that company. We belong to the ''Boys
Rattle-te-bang Society of Good Man
ners," and we invite all our young
friends to come and join us.

other hand, while many of'the Older

The Present. Taking SIander.

The Meadville Republican says that
the charge against President Grant OF
having received large sums of money
and valuable property during his
Presidency, has been made so presist.
emily that it has been accepted as true
by the greater part of the American
people, without question. 1t is now
about time to look into the matter,
and we invite any person, without re-
gard to age, sex, race, color, politics,
religion, or previous condition of SER
vitude, to point out a single authenti-
Gated case that will eontrovert any
statement made in the following let.
ter written to Hon. r. G. Kirk, of Mt.
Vernon, o., by b. r. Cowen, assistant
Secretary of the Interior:
DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR,
WASHINGTON, June 10, 1872.
"DEAR GOVERNOR The Secretary
has referred your letter of tho 10th
inst, to me, with directions to reply
for him to the interrogatories therein.
Relative to the receipt of valuable
presents by the President: Since he be-
came President-and in fact since his
nomination for President in May, 1868,
has never received a single valuable
present from any person whatever
This you may rely on as being literal
ly and strictly true. The Long Branch
cottage he bought and paid for himself,
and furnished it at his own expense.
Before the first nomination he did
receive some valuable presents, as did
also. Mcclellan and Sherman, and which
| presume no one will find fault with.
Since that time any charge to the con.
trary is malicious and unfounded. =

FREAK OF LIGHTNING.-Day before
yesterday, during the prevalence ol
the heavy thunder shower, Messrs.
Keffer, Hoppins, Burgess and Havill,
who were engaged in lowering the
tubing into the Banner well, on the
Dalzell farm, experienced severe
shock of electricity. Mr.. Hoppins
was up in the derrick guiding the
swivel and rope; Capt. Keffer stood
on the derrick holding the rope, and
Messrs. Burgess and Havill were using
the gas tongs on the tubing. The
flash Of lightning was so severe as to
partially numb the arms of all four
men, and cause them to drop the iron
and rope as if it had been hot shot.
The electric fluid passed down the rope
and completely numbed Capt. Keffer's
hands and arms as if he had received
shock from an electric battery. They
did not fully recover from the effects OF
the electricity for several hours after.
Had the bolt struck the derrick with
full force, undoubtedly all four men
would have been killed. AS it is they
do not desire any more electricity for
some time to come.-Pet. Cen. Record.

is unknown, as it originated ~ or 10
feet from the stove pipe; but it is like
ly that some sparks were carried on to
the roof by the wind, as a fire had
been kindled in the stove a short time
previous. The men were all absent at
