Something New:In:LOuisvIIIe

In the days of slavery it was part
of the duties of Methodist preachers,
enjoined by their Conferences, to
preach to the colored people within
their circuit or station, and it some
times fell TO the lot of the preacher to
become fer the time the regular pastor
of an African church, preaching to the
the white congregation in the morning
and evening and to the colored people
in the afternoon. Since the war there
has been change in these regulations
to great extent, the white preacher
conducting service for the colored
people in many instances only at
their solicitation.
On frequent occasions since the war
white ministers have occupied the pull
pits of colored churches in this city,
bnt in no case has colored preacher
occupied the pulpit of white congre-
cation. Such an event will transpire,
however, next Sunday in Walnut
street Methodist Church South, lat the
corner of Fifth and Walnut streets,
where Bishop Miles, of the Colored
Methodist General Conference, will
conduct the regular o'clock p. NJ.
services and preach a sermon. The
occurrence will be somewhat novel in
Louisville and will doubtless attract a
crowd of people.-COltrier journal.

Hearty Nupne1H.

Eating a hearty meal at the close
OF the day is like giving a laborius
man 2 inll days work to do Just as
night sets in, although he has been
toiling all. day. The whole body is
fatigued when night sets in, the stom-
ach takes its due share, and to eat
heartily at supper and then go to bed
is giving all the other portions and
functions Of the body repOse.. while
the stomach has thrown upon it four
or five houls more of additional work,
after having already 'abored four or
FIVE hours to dispose OF breakfast, and
a still longer time for dinner. This
ten or twelve hours Of almost inces-
SAINT work has nearly exhausted its
power; it can not promptly digest
another full meal, but lab0rs at iG for
long hours together, like an exhausted
galley slave OH a newly imposed
task.
The result is that by the unnatural
length of time which the food is kepa
in the stomach, and the imperfect
manner in which the exhausted organ
manages it, it becomes more or less
acid this generates wind, this presses
UP itself against the more yielding
lungs, contining them to largely
diminished space; thence every
breath taken is insufficient for the
wants Of the system, the blood be-
comes foul, black, and thick, refuses
to flow, and the man dies, OF in dclir-
.ium OF fright leaps from a window,
OF commits suicide. @ ~ 81 -
! Let any reader who follows an in
active life for the most part, try the
experiment for a week of eating, alb
solutely nothing after a one or two
o'clock dinner, and see if sonnder
sleep and a vigorous appetite for
breakfast and a hearty dinner are not
the pleasurable results, to say moth
ing Of the happy deliverance from
that disagreeable fullness, weight;
oppression, or acidity which attends
over-eating. The great renoxating
and yjvacity which a long, delicious,
and connecting sleep in,parts, both ii,
mind and body, will OF themselves
more than compensate for the certain
ly short and rather. dubious pleasure
'of eating Il supper with no special rel

A good many elderly people are afflicted
with dreadful headaches on the Fourth OF
July; but | suspect they don't mind it very
much, for in every puff of blue smoke thai
wreathes itself under their noses, they see
a boys or a girls happy face.
1t is queer custom, this settino-off OF
fireworks, but it is observed in many coun-
tries; among others, in England on the
Fifth of November, in China on New
Years Day, and in South America on all
suitable and unsuitable occasions. As Won
know, the Fifth of November is the ami
versary Of the Gunpowder Plot, in which
a sad scamp named Guy Fawkes schemed
to blow up the House of Parliament, with
all the members, great and small. inside.
But the plot was discovered and defeated.
and the patriotic people of England still
celebrate their escape. On every anniver-
sary of the day they have fireworks and
bonfres, and the boys burn effigies of the
traitor. | have seen Il capital Guy Fawkes
made with broom-stick, a ragged old coat,
a battered old hat, and Il penny paper
mask. Boxes of matches, squi5s and
crackers were secreted about his ugly per-
son, and then he was carried over the town
in an old chair, with chorus of noisy
youngsters following after and singing:
Gunpowder pot shall never be forgot
As long as old England stands upon a rockl
When he had been paraded through all
the streets, and reviled, and relted with
stones, he was planted on the top of u bon
fire for throne and burned, amid the
splutterings and fumes of the crackers and
squibs hidden in his dress.
In the Southern States, as those of you
who live there know, Christmas Day is the
great occasion for fireworks, and then
there is as much desire for crackers and
pin-wheels as in the North on the Fourth.
In China, the Acknowledged natives fire off
their crackers on New Years Day, as
have said, and travellers state that the noise
continues from early morning until mid
night. without the least intermission. 1t is
not the children alone who enjoy them
selves; men and women share in the
with just as much zest as the
youngsters. In South American countries,

Boxes for Butter.

A correspondent of the New York
Tribune, who enquiries how to construct
a box in which he can carry his butter to
market over rough road, during the
warm season, and keep the rolls sweet
and in good shape, receives the following
practical answer from Prof. l.. B. Arneld
"A good way to carry rolls of butter
over rough road or any other is to make
tin boxes to suit the size of the rolls, cyl
indrical in form Qike pill box,) but divid-
ing near the middle, so that the cover will
constitute one-half of the box. Wrap
each roll in fine bleached muslin and in
sert one end in the box and slide the cover
over the other end, pressing it down till
the end of the roll will touch the inside OF
the cover. Inclose the tin box in wood
en- one Make the wooden box of sound,
| 1-2 inch boards, fastening the corners
firmly with sheet iron straps. The out
side should be planned and painted the
inside may be rough. Line the inside
of this box with two thicknesses of felt
and cover the felt with thin but sound
boards, mailing them right through the
felt. snuglv to the outside boards. The
felt is a non-conductor, and will keep the
heat from striking through into the butter.
box in the same way, c!eating the top of
it to prevent warping or splitting, and at
tach it to the box by strong hinges on one
side and hold the other down krmly by
two straps and staples. Stout handles
should be put on each end Of the box for
convenience in handling. Rolls of butter
in tin boxes inclosed in such case will
neither get out of shape or feel the heat.
Upon arrival at the end of their journey
the rolls can be easily removed from the
tin boxes, which can be returned in their
case. Boxes - inches in diameter and
eight inches long hold Il roll of / pounds
and costs from $50 to s. per dozen. ac-
cording to the quality of the tin. The
whole outfit is cheap, durable and conve-
nient, and will secure an attractive form to
the butter upon its reaching the market
Some of our readers who feel that they
can make nice butter, yet fail to obtain
what they consider a fair price for n choice
article, may get some hints from the above
which will enable them 10 remedy the
trouble
