MUSTARD PLASTERS.-How many
people are there who really know how
to make a mustard plaster? Not one in
a hundred, at the most, perhaps, aud yet
mustard plasters are used in every fam
lily, and physicians prescribe their appli-
cation, never telling anybody how to
make them for the simple reason that
the doctors themselves do not know,
as a rule. The ordinary way is to mix
the mustard with water, ,tempering it with
little flour, but such a plaster as that
makes it simply abominable. Before it
has half done its work it begins to blis.
ter the patient, and leaves him finally
with a painful, Aayed spot, after having
produced far less effect in a beneficial
way than was Intended. Now mus
tald plaster shoH}d never make blister
at ali. If blister is wanted, there are
other plasters fer better than mustard for
that purpose. When you make a mus
tard plaster, then, use no water whateve:
but mix the mustard with the white of
an egg, and the result will be plaster
which will "draw' perfectly, but will
not produce blister even upon TIE skin
of an infant, no matter how lcng it is al
lowed to remain upon the part. For
this we have the word Of an old and en-
inent physician, as well as our own ex-

TIE STATUS OF LoNGsTRRET IN LOUIS
lANNA.-General Longstreet is the COM
mander of the Kellogg forces i'll Louisi-
ianna. These forces consist" Of "A bat
terry of artillery, few companies of mi
lita, the Metropolitan police of this
city and seventy-fve cavalry. The 9th
err day l saw an order from Kellogg to
Longstreet, directing him to holG his
forces well in hand, and in case of rio
tous demonstration and collections of
mobs to "open fire at once" You can
imagine that the position of Longstreet
is one of some difficulty to n man of
sensitive nature. lie is the worst abuS-
ed man in louisiana, always excepting
Kellogg. Our best citizens refuse to
speak to him ladies draw their skirts
to one side in passing him upon the
streets, as if he was leper. In the eyes
of the New Orleans aristocracy he has
sunk too low to be noticed. In the
public meetings here he is denounced
us traitor, renegade, black-hearted
deserter Of his people, and, in fact, eve
~ epithet is thrown upon him that NAL
ice can paint or ingenuity invent. But
none of this proyCkes response from
Longstreet He goes his way, courage
Gus but sad, turning neither to the right
nor to the left, and paying no attention
to the mud thrown AT him. This logged
silence and impenetrable skin only pro
vokes his enemies to new attacks. But
he still says nothing, makes no replies,
kicks back not ut all. He is, indeed, a
sort Of animated mystery to the people
of louisiana. They remember his
great war record, his services for the
South on Il hundred hard fought battle
fields, but as the commander Of usurper
Kelloggs militia they fail to understand
/ him. Cincinnati Commercials

CHURCH ENTERPRISE AT BERLIN,
MARYLAND.

m n II L LAM.
Mr.. Editor-The Cornerstone of a
new NJ. E. Church in Berlin, Nd, was
laid last Monday, the 2nd inst, by Rev.
Henry Nice, Of your place, and as it
may interest some of your readers, per-
NIT me to give an account oft through
your papers.
About one year ago we removed from
and sold an old dilapidated house for
the purpose of building one, more COM
modious and suitable for the worship of
God. The good work was fully under
way by cold weather when the storm
and snow babe us wait for the coming
OF Spring.
Once more we have renewed our Ia
bors with renewed vigor and brighter
prospects. "Ready to lay the corner
stone" was the announcement a few
days ago, and with an earnest desire for
success we began to search for assist
ance from some one that would be "the
right man in the right place.
Rev. VIM. II. Holiday, the Presiding
Elder, could not be present, but recon-
mended Rev. Henry Nice as sufficient
unto the occasion. He was duly mott
fed and cheerfully and heartily consent
ed SO Monday morning found us fully
prepared for the project of the day. 1t
being holiday, large and festive as
sembly was soon foundupont the ground.
So soon as he reached the place, Mr..
Nice commenced in good earnest, and
ere the time had arrived to lay the stone
we had secured by private solicitations,
promises OF financial aid from the STAN
ina of the citizens and the membership
of the Church. AT the time appointed
the ''orator of the day" commenced the
services by reading the impressive ser
vices of the Ritual, and offering an APP
propriate prayer. Then followed per
anent address in which the speaker i'm
pressed upon our minds the importance
of the moral influence exerted by the
Church upon the community, its digni-
ty as monument to the worship OF Al
mighty God, and the fac; that parents
were establishing means of grace, that
would bestow blessings upon their chill
dren for generations to come.
An appeal was made for money, and
the result gave evidence that Brother
Nice possessed the ability to sustain his
reputation as a financier. The ceremo
! MES closed by placing the Cornerstone
in its position, after depositing in it cop
les of the Discipline and Hymn Book
of the Church, the New York Christian
Advocate, Frederick County and Balti
more papers, the Shepherdstown Regis
ter, names of the officiating minister.
pastor and trustees, three small pieces
of coin, etc, etc. Before the finale was
reached we partook of a collation. provi
ded by the ladies.
We owe many thanks to Rev. Mr.
Nice, and hope he may live long and
enjoy many Of the blessings of this life

are generally ahead of the professionals, have

DEVASTATION BY CATERPILLARs-AN-
MOVING TRAINS, DESTROYING TIMBER,
AND TAKING Possession OF THE COUN-
TRY.-A correspondent, writing from
Sardis, Miss, to the Memphis Appeal,
under date of May 9th, says:
"Perhaps not the least of all the
causes of unpleasant apprehension and
nervousness in.this region is the pres
ence and the astonishing ravages of
those furry little 'cusses' the caterpillars.
They are here and there and everywhere,
out of doors, on the houses, on ones
clothes, in ones clothes, under ones
clothes, and all over one. They have
not only taken possession of houses,
trees, gates, and fences, but they have
actually marched in full force and taken
full possession of the railroads, and so
firmly have they established themselves
upon it that writ of ejectment would
have no more effect toward removing
them than the sigh of mosquito. They
stop the cars every day more than once,
and though the iron-horse slaughters
them by millions upon millions,yet they
fall back in good order (he survivors
do,) and before the next train appears
are sufficiently reinforced to present
formidable front and offer determined
resistance.
''They are, take them in all, the most
annoying little devils that ever got on
earth, except, perhaps, those seven that
are particularly mentioned IT, Scripture.
Naturally, and heretofore,at this season,
no country could present more beauti-
full and cheering prospect than our for
ests clad in their habiliments of verdure.
Now, however, they are dreary and
bleak. The noble oaks, which have al
ways in April ana May afforded shade
and shelter and concealment, at least
for squirrels, are as bare now as bean
poles, and the biggest one, il every leaf
were cabbage, could not afford sub
stance enough to set bachelors pot a
boiling. That is not all. They are
surely destroying all the timber. This
is an alarming fact, but fact neverthe-
lees, and unless by the importation of
English sparrows or some other means
land none other has yet been found to
answer the purpose) their progress can
be stopped, they will continue their dep
relations and destructive attacks on the
forests until they desolate the whole
country.
