Fnst Horses.

Many people are led to think that be-
cause within few years very extraordinary
"time' has been made by some individual
horses that there has been great i'm
provement made IN the breed of horses ;
but il those who write up the subject would
take the trouble to run over the "horse
record for generation they would find,
that although the individual momentary
oxertion of horse has reached very ex-
traordinary pitch, it is only the power pos
sessed before, and formerly expended du-
ring the continued hour, now forced into
minutes. Then the desirable and useful
animal was the one that could go great
distance by a continued exertion. Now,
owing to the introduction Of railroad travel,
that kind of horse is not required but
the animal that is desirable, is the one
that for the space of ten minutes can

GOOD Receipt for Curlng Ment.

The following receipt is recommended
after many years trial. 1t will be useful to
our readers, at this season of the year:
To Que gallon OF water, take II lbs. of
salt, lb. sugar, or. saltpetre, ] o.
potash. In this rate the pickle can
be increased to any quantity desired.
Lot these be boiled together until all the
dirt from the sugar rises to the top an d is
skinned of. Then throw it into tub to
cool, and when cold, pour it over your beef
or pork, to remain the usual time, say four
or five weeks The. meat must be well
covered with pickle, and should not be put
down for at least two days after killing,
during which time it should be slightly
sprinkled with powdered saltpetre, which
removes all the surface blood, etc., leaving
the meat fresh and clean. Some omit boil
ing the pickle, and find it to answ eT well,
though the operation of boiling purlfes the
pickle by throwing off the dirt always to be
found in salt and sugar

Cider.

This is the month when fine clear cider
may be made, for latest in the year
the best cider is made. To have good cider,
says the Maryland Farmer, the apples
Hight to be sound, clean, and somewhat
mellow, and there should be perfect clean
iiness in all the operation of grinding, etc.
The barrels ought to be clean and free from
all faint or bad smell. Keep the barrels
tull, during fermentation, with cider of the
same making kept for the purpose. AS
soon as it ceases to actively ferment, draw
It off into other barrels and at the same
time strain it through blanket or muslin
common cotton-and when it ceases fer
nenting, add to it A lbs. Of mustard seed or
ss some recommend, sulphate of lime then
bung down.
A small gimlet hole might be bored
through the bung to let off for few days
any excess of gas, and then stopped up
tight. To have it extra fine, it should DO
racked off the third time. Good cider al
why's commands high price, and it is
admitted to be wholesome and temperate
beverage.

A Hint to Husbands.

Byron, who at that time had not the
fear of Mrs. Stowe before his eyes has
slanderously, with malicious intent,
declared of woman, that "Thy vows
are writ in sand"
The poet did not know Mrs. L. She
took an oath, or vow, that her John
shouldn't stay out late of nights, and
has faithfully carried it out. All the
"sand" in the question was, to use a
vulgar but forcible expression, Gin her

Last evening the husband of this
pattern of her sex, instead of cheer
fully smoking his pipe by the family
fireside, was Willing away the closing
hours of day at billiard saloon.
About ten o'clock, the wife of his
bosom appeared upon the scene.
Under one arm was tucked the latest
responsibility, and in the delicate.
right hand, which no doubt had many

Johns, was brandished suspicious
looking piece of scantling. Inviting
her liege lord to go home, she enforced
her request by IA gentle tap on his
head, and several of the endearing
epithets, which by scoffing bachelors,
are supposed to pass current among
married folk of n year or more stand

MERGED Theatre.

q east Lynne" was the play at the
Theatre last night. 1t was the benefit
night of Mrs. Phelps, and without pre-
variation, considering the, deficien-
cies of the stage appointments and
conveniences, it was very creditably
presented. This company has per-
formed here for the past two weeks to
scarcely paying houses. Why our
Theatre-goillg people have not more
generally attended is something we
cannot comprehend. Their perfor-
mances, considering the circum-
stances, have certainly been very
creditable since their advent here.
Mrs. Phelps is an acknowledged
artistic in all the roles she assums, and
Mr.. Piercy is equally meritorious in
his representations. Tonight two new
and attractive plays are announced,
and our people will miss a chaste and
enjoyable entertainment if they do
not attend. ~ as eNeaEEN
