A brace of sinners for their souls salvation
Were sent in penance of Loretto's shrine,
Where foot-sore pilgrims from every nation
Flccked wearily to appease the wrath divine.
Fifty long miles had these sad rogues to travel,
With something in their shoes much worse than
vel;
y their toes so gentle to amuse,
Ale had ordered peas into their shoes.

An Excellent Varnish for Harness.

Procure at the druggists or apothe-
cary's store half a pound or a pound of
guTn-shellac, according to the quantity
desired; break the scales fine, and put
them in jug or bottle add good al
cohol sufficient to cover the gum cork
tightly, and place the jug where it will
keep warm. In about two days, if the
bottle or Jug is shaken frequently, the
gum will be dissolved and ready for
use. If the liquid appears as thick as
thin molasses, add more alcohol. To
one quart of the varnish add one ounce
of good lamp-black and an ounce of
gum camphor. Such varnish will not
render leather hard but it will keep
the harness from becoming soaked with
water, and it will keep the surface neat
and clean for long time. A coat of
such varnish will effectually prevent the
oil in the leather from soiling ones
hands. Nothing better to render far
mer's boots waterproof than an occasion
al coat of this leather varnish.

BRowE SUGAR DRTY.=But it sur
prised us to see your correspondents
recommendation to use brown sugar in
the preparation of food. I queried
whether she had ever seen the process
of the manufacture and refining of su-
gar. Does she know that brown sugar
means, simply and solely, moist and
dirty sugar =? Does she comprehend the
quality. and nature of the dirt which
constitutes its provinces Does she
know that pure loaf, crushed or granu-
lated sugar Is not only perfectly free
from dirt and is incapable of adultera-
ton, but is much cheaper, pound by
pound, even at the slight additional
price usually charged for it, than brown
sugar of any grade, because you buy no
dirt or moisture, but pure saccharine
matter? Does she know that the notion
that brown sugars are sweeter than
white is pure fancy, and that the con-
trary is true? suppose we are each
and all destined to eat our peck of dirt
sooner or late, but there is dirt-and
dirt-and save us from the dirt that
makes brown sugar brown.

We are living WelIfln Vienna, not.
zasitllstaAding the great Injuries Of the
season in America are almost unknown
here. Good meat we'll cooked sweet
and crisp bread, the best made coffee In
the world, sweet butter and good beer
can always be had IN Vienna. OF course,
any one can live well upon these solids
and substantials, and to those who know
no better, they are the summing up Of
human happiness. That ANYTHING else
should be wanting is regarded as ridieu-
lous, and when an American undertakes
to describe the variety of human food
that tempts the palate IN his famed
land, it is received with a shrug of the
shoulders, expressive partly of doubt
and partly of disgust that any one
should want to eat such things. The
Viennoise regards fruits as unhealthy,
and most of them viii never venture
further than to eat a half-dozen cherries.
There are peaches here, but they are
very poor, and merely sold from the
fruit stands. There are also plenty of
aprieots, which no one seems to care
about. Last evening, at the Reidhoff,
while the merits of the food of different
countries was being discussed, and the
several Americans present were describ-
ing a number of our special Injuries, a
Cuban gentleman, who had been roam
ing over the world for the past eight
years, and had resided much Of his
time in America, was appealed to, when
he delivered himself In substance about
as follows: eff you want the best
beef and mutton in the world, with
good ale, go to London for them if
you desire the best pastry and fancy
dishes, go to Paris for them; if You
prefer the substantials, well cooked and
served, and the best made coffee and
excellent beer, come to Vienna for
Them but if you desire all these essen
tials to good living combined, together
with soft crabs, oysters, terrapins, can
vas-back ducks, and an endless supply
of the most luscious fruit, you must go
TO America for them" There are seve-
raj American Germans now here, among
them Mr.. Raster, editor of the Chicago
Staats-Zeitung, who are more enthusi-
astic on the subject of American living
than the Americans are, and who declare
the real enjoyment of life is unknown
in Europe. Letter from V5e1lna.

How is it, with the g Hotel Albums, -

umes introduced to the merchant by the
supple young solicitor, as the

It is true that the merchant is pro-

thousand and a copy gratis to every
hotel" But is the promise kept ?. are
one thousand copies printed? five hun
bred one hundredP The advertiser
has no means of knowing. 1t is too of
ten the case that such schemes are ad-
vertising traps which the merchant en-
tiers blindly. In the newspaper every

the strength and the probable value of
his investment, while at the same time,
the newspaper must send its issue to its
various subscribers who pay for it and
are bound to read it. But supposing
the volumes referred to are to be found
in all the hotels who reads them &?
You see hundreds of people in hotel
parlors with their newspaper, but how
many look over the old, dilapidated
margin-scribbled "Guide to Stran-
gersP" The moment such work is
published it becomes old. The matter
and the pictures are already obsolete
before the last advertiser pays in.
Have these the influence of the family
newspaper, chiefest of household gods {?
Probably not. The Hotel Album, -
if its publishers promises are kept, is
sent to divers hotels. Suppose for a
moment that strangers read them, of
what advantage is it as compared with
the paper which strikes the very heart

chant expects his trade? And, last of
all, the g Album" gives him but one in

How to Drive.

There is another point of Importance
in driving any horse, but especially a
young one; it is they way you handle
the reins. Most drivers over-drive.
They attempt too much and, in doing
50. distract or hamper the horse with
such vicious gait, that his speed is got
from him by the most artificial process !;
but such horses are fortunately rare.
and hence the style of management re-
quirred cannot become general. The
true way is te let the horse drive him
self, the driver doing little bat direct
ing him, and giving him that confidence
which horse alone gets in himself
when he feels that a guide and friend is
back of him. The most vicious and in
exousable style of driving is that which
so many drivers adopt, viz Wrapping
the lines around either hand, and pull
ing the horse backward, with all their
aight and main, so that the horse, ia
point of fact, pulls the weight back of
him with his mouth. and with his breast
ana shoulders. This they do under the
impression that such a dead pull is
needed in order to "steady" the horse.
This method of driving 1 regard as
radically and superlatively wrong. 1t
would tax the ingenuity Of a hundred
fools TO invent worse one. The fact
is, with rare exception, there should
never be any pull upon the horse at all.
A steady pressure is allowable, proba-
bly, advisable; but anything beyond it
has no justification in nature or reason /:
for nature suggests the utmost possible
freedom of action of head, body, and
limbs, in order that the animal may
attain the highest rate of speed and
reason certainly forbid the superstition
that by the bits, and not by the breast
collar, the horse is 20 draw the weight
attached to it. In speeding my horse I
very seldom grasp the lines with both
hands when the road IS straight and
clear from Instructions. The lines are
rarely steadily taut, but held in easy
pliancy. and used chiefly to shift the
bit in the animals mouth, and by this
motion communicate courage and conf
denne to him. I find that BY this
method my horses break less, and go
much faster, than when driven, by men
who put the old fashioned steady pull
upon them. Rev. Mr.. Murray.
THERE is g deportment which suits
