Too Much WidOWered.

AN article on corpulency for the Gal
arg Club-room" for September winds
up with the following:
L have reserved for positively the
last" story told me the other day. which
proves most conclusively the utter heart
lessness with which fat people are treated
And as even my slenderest reader may
now feel fatigued, leave the anecdote to
speak for itself
A Western Snowman was exhibiting a
giantess who kept the scales in the vicin-
ity of six hundred pounds. She was
" like heavenly pastures, large and fail" !"
and proved very profitable card. In
order that these voluminous and profita-
BILE charms should not be sequestered
from him, the Snowman secured life in
terest in them by marriage. Unfortu-
nately the bride sickened even unto death,
and council of physicians declared her
recovery impossible The disconsolate
Snowman wandered out of the village
where " unmerciful disaster" had over
taken him, and leaning over fence, gave
way to flood of tears. A sympathetic
bystander, learning the cause of his grief,
attempted consolation by depicting what
the future might have in store for him.
"Oh," said the pseudo widower, " that is
all very well, but the thing that worries
me is what / am to do non. You see she's
SO big that Pm pestered to know whether
I'd better coax her into graveyard to
die, or get up too0 ezpenSaCe funerals"

How to Carve.

ALTHOUGH it is daily duty for many
men and women to cut up meat for a
family, there are multitudes who do it
neither well nor wisely. The following
suggestions from the National Agricultur-
iSt, on the point, may not be out of place,
especially to young housekeepers:
To carve fowl (which should always
be laid with the breast uppermost) place
the fork in the breast, and take off the
wings and legs without turning the fowl;
then cut out the merry thought, cut slices
from the breast, take out the collar-bone,
cut off the side pieces, and then cut the
carcass in two. Divide the joints in the
leg of turkey.
In carving a sirloin, cut thin slices
from the side next you Gt must be put in
the dish with the tenderloin underneath),
then turn it and cut from the tenderloin.
Help the guests to both kinds.
In carving a leg of mutton, or a ham,
begin by cutting across the middle to the
bone. Cut a tongue across, and not
lengthwise, and help from the middle
part.
Carve fore-quarter of lamb by sepa-
rating the shoulder from the ribs, and
then divide the ribs.
To carve loin of veal, begin at the
smaller end and separate the ribs. Help
each one to piece of kidney and its fat.
Carve pork and mutton in the same way.
To carve fillet of veal, begin at the
top and help to the stuffing with each
slice. In breast of veal, separate the
breast and brisket, and then cut them up,
asking which part is preferred.
In carving pig, it is customary to di-
vide it, and take off the head before it
comes to the table, as TO many persons
Al l. = Nrt off fhn he
and divide them.
In carving venison, make a deep in
cision down to the bone and let out the
Juices, and turn the broad end toward
you, cutting deep in thin slices.
For saddle of venison, cut from the
tail toward the other end, on each side,
in this slices. Warm plates are very nee
essary with venison ard mutton, and in
winter are desirable for all meats.

A Saltwater Lesson.

I SPENT (says well-known author) an
evening lately with Captain Stout, of the
Messenger, aud among other incidents of
his experience he related the following:
81 once had man." he said, ''who
sailed with me many voyages, and who,
though thorough seamen, and ordinarily
quiet and orderly, yet gave me great
deal of trouble. In those days we used
more rum on ship-board than we do now,
and this man often contrived to get tipsy,
and when in that condition he would
invariably try to drown himself. | had
borne with him for long time, when, as
l was one day in my cabin busy with my
reckoning, l heard an unusual hustle on
deck, and upon running up to learn the
cause found that it came from the fel-
lows trying to jump overheard, and his
shipmates trying to prevent him from
doing so. The man was quite tipsy, and
l thought would not only sober him,
but give him a lesson which might make
an impression. Accordingly, l dispatch
ed one of the hands for the deep sea line.
This 1 secured firmly around the culprit's
body, contriving that the lead, weighing
about fifty pounds, should dangle under
his arm. Having made all ready, Ipitch-
ed the fellow overheard, and let him sink
a few fathoms. He was soon drawn to
the surface, and allowed to spUrt out the
saltwater and to breathe, and then l
dumped him again. As we drew him up
the second time, he struggled and shouted
for dear life.
1" For mercy's sake, don't drown me =
he cried
"'To be sure 1 will,' said l. Won't it
save you the sin of suicide? You'd better
go into the next world by my hands than
by your own
"And then I dropped him again, this
time letting him go by the run at least
five fathoms down. He was finally taken
on deck, completely exhausted and entire
ly sober. He sailed with me four years
after that, the best hand 1 had; and as
for drowning himself, he never threaten
ed or attemoted it again

has refused to do it ?-the Democrats,
who have sought to terrorize the colored
voters, or the Republicans, who have de-
clared and maintained equal rights
Instead of forgetting, this is the very
moment to remember. If we are to re-
fuse to be taught by experience, and per-
nit so incidentally grave an event as the
election of President to be decided by
any thing else than the clearest know
ledge and consideration of all the facts,
we deserve such an Administration as
such blind stupidity would doubtless i'm
pose upon us. From the first moment
that the aggression of the slave interest
became menacing to the national existence
down to the speech of the last Democratic
partisan in favor of Mr.. Greeley we have
heard the Democratic cry of conciliation
and fraternity, which meant always the
same thing, the supremacy of the party
of State sovereignty, obscurely involving
the right of secession, as in the Kentucky
and Virginia resolutions-the party plant
ed upon injustice and pander to igno-
rance. Just before the war Jefferson
Davis claimed that he and his friends
were national; and the Republican party,
because it was not tolerated in the Slave
States, was denounced as sectional. The
war for the Union in the same way was
lidlIlCludl II6Slu6uJ Lincoln was
despot, the Union soldiers were his hire
lings, and the whole Republican policy
was unconstitutional.
Why is the past to be forgotten? Has
it no lessons? Has it not taught us the
real meaning of those cries? Were the
intelligence and industry of the country
befooled SO long and so advantageously
by Democratic ascendancy that it is anx-
ious to renew it? The alternative is not
hate, as the Greeley orators declare. The
alternative is justice. If our Southern
fellow citizens DO not mean to be reckon
ciled until they can control the Govern
ment, it is not the fault of others. There
never was a victor so magnanimous as
the loyal people of the United States.
They never hated "the South" and they
do not hate it now. But they hated
slavery, and they love equality and mean
to maintain it; and therefore they will not
forget; they will diligently remember;
and they will trust those whose fidelity
has been proved from the beginning, not
promised on the eve of an election

To Drive Rats Away Without Poison.

WE know of three methods: First, the
old French plan; this is followed chiefly
in Paris by men who make it special
business. They take a deep tub with
water on the bottom and little elevation
in the middle like an island, on which
is only place for just one rat to sit on.
The top is covered, and has a large bal
anced valve opening downward; on the
middle of this valve piece of fried pork
or cheese is placed, and when a rat walks
on it to get the cheese, the valve goes
down, drops the rat into the water and
moves back into position. A road is
made from the rat hole to the top of the
tub, by means of a piece of board rubbed
with cheese, so as to make the walk at
tractive for the rats. In the course of a
sigle night some ten, twenty, or even
more rats may go down, and if the island
was not there they would be found most
all alive in the morning quietly swimming
round; but the provision of the little is
