SuperscriptiOns.

Postmasters, post-otfice clerks. and car
riers must have their ingenuity and skill
tested to the utmost. TO decipher illegi-
BILE and puzzlng chirography, and to
translate astonishing Orthography, such
as appear in the mail-bags as the results
of carelessness and ignorance, demand
both patience and practice, as well as
ingenuity. No Chinese puzzle could be
more confusing than some of the letter
addresses that meet the eye Of the bewil-
dered post-office clerk-we mean "bewil-
dered" until he gets used TO the busi-
ness; afterward the skill and rapidly
with which he decides the destination of
an epistle are astonishing. Perhaps 1t
is not surprising that the word "Massa-
chusetts" is stumbling-block to. those
who have never been subjected to ''com-
pulsory education." 1t has certainly ap-
peared on letters in every conceivable
style of orthOgraphy. For example:
Masitititus, Massatuis, Matcuset, Massa-
chutice, Massticice, Massatuette, Massa-
tochis, Masicutious. How the owner OF
an epistle addressed "Harverd STREET
Cambriecg Provedince Mass Boston"
was ever found is a marvel, but 1t is on
record that his abode was discovered.
Whether the same was true of the fol-
lowing we doubt: "Ruieree brett number
twenty five north cambriter street if you
can't find the rite persants you que it to
the priest june the 1857 go begass
about time" A letter addressed to Jack
Riordan, Sin care of tom Snee the tidler,"
was consigned to it's natural fate, the
dead.letter office. "No. so fointun Street
jowbriger Mass" when translated by
the aid Of post-office lexicon reads,
"No.. 80 Fountain street, Fall River,
Mass" "Wilmanstet Canietiat New vii
lage 49," in English simply means, "Wil-
limantic, Connecticut" Even a post
office clerk must regard as slightly mixed
the following address: "Uigg Orwell
Held Johns Daughter P. Il. l." 1t is
easy to perceive that the samples Of ad-
dresses given above are the results Of
ignorance. Another list might be made,
however, indicative of mere careless
ness, which would be equally surprising.
Letters mailed without stamps are COM
mon enough. So also are letters whose
address omits the name of the State, the
name of the town, or even the name of
the person supposed to be addressed.
Nor are the cases few where a nicely
sealed envelope without the smallest bit
of writing upon tits committed to the
tender mercies of the Post-ottice Depart
ment.

Valuable Recipes.

TO Cure Hoarseness.-Wh the voice
is lost, as is sometimes the case, from the
effects of cold, simple, pleasant reme-
dy is furnished by beating up. the white
of one egg, adding to it the juice OF one
lemon, and sweetening with white sugar
to the taste. Take a tea-spooniul from
time to time. 1t has been known effect
ually to cure the ailment.
A Pleasant Cough Candy.-Take two
tumblers. In one place a gill of flax
seed; fill the other with broken bits of
slippery-elm bark; ill both tumblefs
with boiling water, and leave standing
tor two hours. In saucepan place one
and half pounds Of Drown sugar.
Strain into i5 through muslin all the
liquid that will pour from the two tum-
blerfuls of bark and flaxseed. Transfer
to the fire.. and stir until the candy
seems upon the point OF turning back to
sugar. When this is seen to be the case,
pour out instantly, and break into small
pieces when cold. This candy is sur
prisingly pleasant to the taste, and found
beneficial, especially in the case OF pub
lie speakers called upon to tax the voice
while suffering from hoarseness.
Cure for Ringworm.-A simple and
harmless application, said unfailingIy to
cure this troublesome eruption. is found
by washing with solution made from
the root of the common narrow-leafed
dock, which belongs TO the botanical ge-
nus Rumex. Use vinegar as the sol
vent.

A strange case of deliberate child mur-
der has come to light in West Cornwell,
England. A few weeks ago Emily Rich
ards, a young woman whose husband
emigrated two years ago, and who has
since lived in service at Penrhyn, re-
turned to Chacewater, her native place.
She carried bag, lantern aud living
baby. She asked two girls to show her
the way to Faithy pump. They did SO,
and carried her bundle, for which she
gave them siXpence. They left her at
the pump. An hour afterward Richards
called Unexpectedly on her mother. She
had then bundle and lantern, but no
child. She remained three days, then
disappeared without saying where she
was going. Meanwhile mysterious ru-
mors spread-a baby's flannel had been
found partly hanging in Faithy pump,
which is a deep well without covering,
from which row OF cottages is supplied
with drinking water. The police had
the we'll searched, and in it was found
the body of child three months old. 1t
had died from drowning. A Coroner's
jury, after receiving evidence OF these
facts, returned verdict of willful mur-
der against Emily Richards.

Secession Of English Protestant Clergymen to

Secession Of English Protestant Clergymen to
Rome.
II is announced in the Derby Mercury
that "Rey. Alfred New digate, Vicar
of Kirk Hallam, Derbyshire, has signified,
in a letter to the Vicar OF Ilkerton, his
determination to relinquish his living
and join the Church of Rome. Mr.. New
digate seeded about year ago, and
tile services at Kirk HalIam have long
been marked by extreme ritualism. A
correspondent has seen Mr.. Newdigate's
letter, in which he states that the re-
solve has been taken because he consid-
ers the only true Apostolic Church is the
one of which Rome is the center. The
living is in the gift OF the perverts
brother, Col. Newdigate, of West Hal
lam; another brother, Rev. G. j.
Newdigate, being rector of the latter
place. The living of Kirk Hallam is
worth nearly 800 pounds sterling a year.
The secession of Rev. Alfred Newdi-
gate has caused much excitement, as he
held the Secretaryship of the Society foI
the Propagation of the Gospel and
cese of Lichtield, which he recently re-
signed" The Church Herald says: "Mr.
Newdigate is said to have been mainly
led to take this step through the aban-
donment by the English Bishops of their
jurisdiction to a layman; and also by an
investigation of the doctrinal and his
torical misstatements of the well-known
Dollingerite book Janus We are also
informed that several take similar
step-amengst these latter the name of
one of the most revered and respected
supporters of the Church of England

Niagara Falls In Winter.

A correspondent writes from Niagara
Falls: "The ice bridge is formed in all
its perfections, more SO than it has been
for the past twelve or fifteen years. The
ice columns rear their heads in all their
majesty below the American and Horse
shoe Falls, to the height of over 100 feet.
Those at the base of the American Falls
reach nearly to the top of the falls, and
are as clear as crystal. On visiting Ia
bic Rock the visitor passes between the
ice columns and the tails, and they pre-
sent to the view Of the beholder mag
nificent spectacle. The ice-bridge above
the falls extends at least mile or more
up the river, and varies in thickness
from two inches to five or six feet. Mon
day party Of seven young gentlemen
started from the head OF the Third Sis
ter Island, went up the river opposite
Grass Island, which is about mile from
the starting point, and stopped at the
old scow which is anchored in the river
above the rapids, returning, they went
under the Second Sister Island bridge
down to McCullough's Rock, broke some
OF the rock oil as q memento, went
over to the old scow below the Three
Sister Island and returned home. The
distance Travelled on the ice bridge, was
over five miles, and this, it will be re-
membersd, is located over a portion OF
the swiftest rapids approaching the cat
aract. 1t is said the district trayersed
has not been frozen over before i'll
twelve or fifteen years. In some places
the ice seemed frozen to the rocks, leav-
ing but little room for the water to flow
between the ice and the bed of the river.
The ice gorge below the tails is very
rugged; il is supposed to be in some
splaces piled up TO the thickness Of
twenty or thirty feet. One gentleman
assured your correspondent that in one
locality it was forty ieet thick, but we
took the story. in with a good deal OF
allowance. The bridge below the falls
is very rough, making travelling tiresome
in the extreme to pedestrians, though
this does not deter people from crossing
and re-crossing the river up to within a
stones throw of the great cataract. The
scenery, from both the Park and Goat
Island is magnifcently grand"
