The proof showed that the State OF Bank, as
Its agent, had used the money and had the
benefit of c, the defendant in equity ought
to pay Interest, and whsther It could be de-
Inaaded Is matter Of law, or to be left to
The discretion Of a Jury, could make but
little difference; for any jury would give
It. But under the circumstances attend
ing this case the undertaking
on the part of the Bank
having been gratuitous and for the accom-
medallion of the plaintiff, it being in the
midst OF fragrant war, at time when all
men were more or less demoralized, and
when It was difficult, if not impossible to
procure agents strictly trustworthy to at
tend to any thing. / think if the defend
ant was private citizen, jury would
find reasons growing out of the condition Of
The times and the circumstances attending
the Bank of Tennessee satisfactory to their
IDEAS of equity and justice for disallowing
interest. But II it ought not to be allowed
against private citizen, it ought not 10 be
allowed against corporation. 81 -..-.-. 4

Fried Squash. %
Slice thin, dip in egg, then in -four, and
fry In butter.
To Make Meat Tender.
II as soon as meat is skinned and thor.
oughly boiling, two spoonsful Of brandy is
added to every three pounds Of meat, the
meat win become tender, though it may
have been very tough, and win not retain
any taste Of the brandy.
To Cure Heartburn.
Persons troubled with heartburn win
find speedy and perfect relief By eating one
or two kernels Of the peach pit as soon as
the suffering manifests itself. The remedy
issimple, cheap, harmless and efectual.
ErysfPeIas and COrns.
IL is said that cranberries, applied as a
poulticb, VIII effectually cure erysipelas.
Two or three applications viii generally do
the work. The half of a cranberry bound
on q corn, for two or three nights, on going
to bed, will kin the corn.
To Stop Vomiting,
A cloth saturated in the essence Of pep
permint and laid across the stomach is good.
A plaster made of pulverized cloves, ginger
and corn meal, applied to the stomach, is
also good. A medium sized pill Of cayenne
pepper will frequently stop'it very soon.
To Purify the Blood.
A well known physician says that he con
rs the following prescription for purify
<the blood as the best he has ever nsed:
One ounce yellow dock, one-half ounce
horse-raddish, one quart hard cider. Dose,
one wine-glAssful four times day,
Tomato Custard.
Strain finely stewed tomatoes through a
coarse sieve, and adding two pints Of milk
and one pint of tomatoes for four eggs and
one teaspoonful Of sugar. Bake in small
CUPS quickly. This is said TO be a very
beneficial diet for couSumptiyes. M
Icing.
Beat the whites of four eggs to stIH
froth; then add to them nalf pound of
ground or powdered white sugar; beat well
until it will stand like foam. Flavor with
vanilla, lemon or rose. This win frost the
tops Of two ordinary sized cakes. Heap as
much as much as YOU deem sufficient in the
centre of the cake, then dip broad-bladed
knife into cold water, add spread the icing
over the whole surface.
To Keep Ice.
Make double pocket Of strong wooden
cloth, no matter how coarse and faded it is.
{ Have a space of two inches or so between
the inner and OUTER pockets, and pack this
space as fun as possible with feathers. You
. have no need to use geese feathers; hens
feathers are just as good. With pocket
thus constructed and kept closely tied at
the mouth, a few pounds of ice may be
kept q week. a.

i MEDICAL PHEEOMENON.


Mrs. B1HAons BeeOverfDg her Speech
AFTER lingering I've Weeks with a
Bullet An her Braln, 80
- From the Chicago Times, june 3.
Mrs. Alice Simons, who has been so long
lowering betwixt life and death, with a
bullet IN her brain, Is still alive. She is
conscious, and shows an increase of intelli-
gence. She spoke on yesterday, more than
once, In answer to questions put with
view Of testing her mental condition.
Up to yesterday she had been dieted
with liquid food, but on yesterday she
was allowed to eat little broiIed beef,
when she ate with some appearance Of aP-
petite and relish. Her sister asked her
whether she loved her, and she said ''yes."
She was then asked the same question
more particularly, aud replied ''of course"
but seemed unable or unwilling to continue
the effort Of speaking. There was very
slight discharge Of blood from the wound on
Saturday, just enough TO satUuate the com
press, but none on yesterday. On last night
the indications were less favorable, hepulse
beating weaker, and o,her symptoms Of not
quite so cheering character as had been
observed during the preceding forty-eight
hours presenting themselves. The right
side Is still paraiyzed, and when the patient
desires to move her right arm she is only
able to do 50 with the aid Of
her left; but on The other hand,
t1e side has become somewhat warmer.
The danger TO be aPprehended from the
shock has disappeared, the patient having
reacted gradually bat successfully out Of it.
The danger from inflammation, however, re-
mains, although every day she lives slightly
diminishes it. Drs, Rea and O'Brien are
still attending her, day and night, and
although not enChusias. ically san
game as to the result, admit that
IL the pat ent recover today from the slight
reaction for the worse noticeable last night,
SI=0ay still exhibit further signs Of i'm
proven ent. It is impossible to say whether
the proG\ss Of encysting the bullet is pro-
seeding oipot, or what amount Of infam-
maGiOn reIryins. f'tHlt q
