Drying and Cooking Sweet Corn.

/ gather the corn when it is large
enough to eat, and cook about fifteen
minutes; then with a sharp knife,
cut the top off the kernel, scrape off
the rest, leaving the hull on the cob;
spread thin on plates and dry in
warm place near the stove; it will
dry in six hours; when thoroughly
dry place in tight sack "a paper
flour sack is good,) hang in a dry.
cool place; this needs no airing to
keep it from getting musty. When
wanted for use, take sufficient
quantity, place in pan with plenty
of water, cold or warm, not hot; let
it soak over night; set on the stove
with the same water it soaked in;
let it cook slowly for II hours;
when nearly done, add piece of
butter, salt and pepper and sweet
cream, if you like. If you want
succotash, add to the corn about
half as much we'll cooked beans.
Beans are better soaked over night
in cold water, then parboiled, and
cooked slowly in fresh water; when
nearly done add salt, and season to
taste.-Count. Gent.

VIOLATION OF THE MARKET ORDINANcH.-Mr.
Hiram Dreisbach, of this place, was prosecuted
last week for violating the Market Ordinance in
buying load of melons during market hours, for
thepurpose of retailing them. He was taken be-
fore Esquire Purse; and entered bail for a hear
ing to-day (Friday.) A fish and BAN hawker
was also arrested and fined for pedding goods
during market hours. These parties were arrest-
cd Mt the instance ofthc market clerk, who is de-
termined to enforce the Ordinance. 1t is no more
than just tot put stop tothese violations of the
law, in order to protect both the producer and
consumer. Ii one is allowed to pedde through
to wn while others are compelled to remain in
market until 0 O'Clock, our markets will soon
be ruined, and great imposition would be the re-
suit. The market laws are liberal in our opin.
on, aid We see no necessity for their violation.
Those who attend market with a view ofabding
by the law, should be fully protected from being
imposed upon.

BARSuM rs CoMING.--Barnum, acknowledged
to be the greatest Snowman In the world, will
visit sunbury for the first time next month, when
he will exhibit his big show. Mr.. Barnum has
been on western tour, and it appears is drawing
immense crowds everywhere. The following ex-
tract from the Chicago Tribune of the 22d inst,
will convey some idea how his show is appreci-
ated in the West d -
BARNUM's SHOW. ..
Barnums big show continues 10 draw ini-
mense crowds morning afternoon aud evening Of
each day. Everybody seems to have gone or to
be going, and the audience yesterday filed the
seats TO their utmost capacity. II may not be
generally known that there are two rings where
performances take place simultaneously. The
difficulty about II is that II takes cross-eyed
man to take in both exhibitions at the same
time Still there is diversity, and when the OBJ
server gets tired of looking at one, Ii II be posi-
BILE to get tired, he can relieve his mind by level
ing his eyes on the other. The most rigid disci-
pline seems to pervade the entire establishment.
1t runs with the precision Of we'll regulated
machine. Every man Ia 10 his place at the pro-
per instant, aud so is every animal. There are
no breaks or gaps everything works smooth
and easy. The museum and menagerie are full
of people from morning to night, and II takes
hours TO give the curiostics, living and dead the
careful study they deserve. The attendants are
courteous and polite. To be go is one of the
qualifications required Of them before receiving
an appointment. They answer all questions
civilly, and impart much useful and interesting
knowledge. There is no such thing as profani-
ty or unbecomlng language among the 600 en-
ployees. 1t is not allowed. and would be punish
ed by instant Dismissal. This Is right, and Mr..
Barnum, in compelling decency in language and
conduct among his attaches, has done much to
elevate the standard of circus exhibitions.
There will be buttwo, daysmo at the showand
then the cara van, win wehd Its way towafds the
Mst. Wherever it goes we believe II VIII be
to the representations made In the bills. In the
meantime those who have not seen it should go

entertainments are la every respect as full and
