Preserving Summer Butter.

| promised, when telling you how my
wife kept her eggs good all winter, to tell
you how she used to keep butter sweet and
good from summer to the next spring. 1t
is a short story, and true one. When
butter was plenty and good in summer
time, we had more than we could use, but
we did not sell it to the country store-keep-
er at the lowest prices of the year--prices
that were ruled by the miserable quality Of
most the stuff he bought for butter--uor
did we buy rancid roll or frkin butter at
twice that price, the next winter. She
made brine that would bear an egg-that
is a brine with salt enough in it to make
its specific gravity about the same as an
eggs. The egg should just float at the sur
brine was boiled and skinned to cleanse it
of any impurities in the salt, aud about one
teaspoonful of saltpetre (level measure)
was put to two gallons of brine. The brine,
being put into the vessel to be used, was
now ready to receive the butter.
OF course the butter must be good in all
respects, or no method will preserve it even
as good as it is but this method has the
great merit of not allowing bad lot OF
one week to spoil good lot of another
week.
Roll the butter into Jumps of from one
to FIVE pounds, and carefully wrap it up in
rag or cloth, which should be secured by
a string. Then drop it into the brine, and
keep it under with board and light
weight on it. Next week do the same way,
and so on just as long as you please. BE
sure that it is kept under the brine-my
wife insists on that point as if she thought
it was point of common failure SO | re.
peat it.
By this method, which | am sure is not
new, one lot of butter is not disturbed by
the putting in or taking out Of another
and that the butter can be thus kept about
as good as it went in, | can testify. We
DO not use the method now because we can
always, here in Delaware County, get good
butter in the market all the year round
aud we do not now make our own butter
and perhaps do not feel quite the same
necessity for economy as we did twenty.
eight years ago; but in any locality where
there are not dairymen Of skill who pro
duce fine article Of butter at any season
the method is truly valuable.-E, II. ia

LOGICAL. - The Sacramento Record
one day last week, in n very able article,
showed clearly that Newton Booth, in
becoming n candidate for United States
Senator at this time had wilfully violated
most solemn pledge made by him dur
ing his gubernatorial campaign of 1871,
to the effect that he would not use his po-
slton as Governor rs n stepping-stone to
the Senate, nor would he become n can
didate for any other Office during his
incumbency, but would serve to the
end Of the term for which he was elected
unless prevented by death. Most of the
Booth organs apparently considered that
the best thing that could be done about
this charge, which was fully sustained by
extracts from the Governors speeches
and Union editorials, was to let it alone.
The San Francisco Chronicle, however,
with that vigor and earnestness. which
has ever characterized the "live paper"
completely refutes the utterances of the
Record by the astonishing and soul-str-
ring revelation that-we pause to put an
extra weight on our head to keep the
hair from rising" the editor of the Rec
ord is an Englishman." Such logic is
unanswcrable.
Weekly Trinity journal., 1873-05-31

ANOTHER HIRELING.-Ho the muz-
zling of portion of the dominant party
can make the Senator elected under such
an arbitrary Arrangement "the people S
choice" we fail to see. If none other
than Booth men" arc allowed 20 con-
test for the the party nominations, how,
we should like to know, are those who fa-
vor Goodwin, FELTON,, or some other aspi-
rant, TO manifest their ehoice.-TRINITY
JOURNAL.
The simplicity of our Trinity friend ls
positively charming. 1t is not proposed
that Goodwin, FELTON,, or anybody else
shall contest for the Senatorship. In
fact they have no right to as our mountain
cotemporary would have long since learn
ed had he been a careful reader of the
WhdngdOOdLe. That our Trinity friend
should in sober earnestness advance the
ridiculous idea that anybody but " New
ton ii. Booth" has right to aspire to
the United States Senatorship, stamps
him Chickadee," of unutterabe base
ness. It's an even bet that the Trinity
man has one of Stanford's locomotives in

THE MoDoC WAR.-To VIM. Pryor,
Telegraph Operator at Shasta, we arc
indebted for the following synopsis of
Modoc news of the past week "The
Hot Creek band of Indians was brought
in by Fairchild's party and surrendered,
apparently uncondjtionally, as they gave
up their arms and we're put under guard.
The band numbers So men, women and

Amongst them are Bogus Charley, Shack

Gpd two squaws being killed.

The latest from the Modoc country was
received here Thursdey evening and Is TO
tbe effect that Gen. Davis has armed six
or seven of the Indians who surrendered

SOMEBODY has discovered that Booth
took the stump in behalf of Geo. G. Cor
ham, in the memorable campaign OF
1S67.-TRINITY JOURNAL.
He did more than that he planted
himself squarely on Gorham's "coolie
letter." and declined to accept a nomina-
ton for State Senator except upon doc
trines it enunciated. In 1871, before he
was nominated for Governor, with direct
and sole reference to the pending contest
for United States Senator, he pointedly
and distinctly pledged himself, if elected
Governor, to serve to the end of the term
unless prevented by death /; and he could
not hare obtained the nomination With-
out that pledge.-SOtdnO Republican.

Tur Union, Buuetin, can and Eram-

THE Union, Bulletin, call and Erdm-

actuated in doing SO by a conviction that
a refusal to accept greenbacks is for the

is influenced by its desire to injure Stan

IT is now a misdemeanor to remove a
dead body from the burying grounds of
San Francisco without tbe consent of the
Coroner, and that officer, it is said, will
not give consent to Chinese. The re-
moval of their bones to their native land
is the religion of Celestials and when they
find that these cannot be removed after
death, they may conclude to take them
back while yet they live. Nobody will
object to this latter mode of proceeding.
