The Rural Nelc Yorker recommends
the following method of preserving cider
sweet: II allow the cider, after it comes
from the press, to stand until the Pomace
settles When this point is reached put
it in clear vessel, and let it come to a
boil, skimming off the scum carefully 1t
is then put into kegs and demijohns, and
tightly corked and sealed. By this proc
ess | have excellent sweet cider, not
merely for the entire winter, but for years.
This method would not of course be avail

for an ordinary family it answers admira-

In many places sheep are kept in
sheds, the south side of which may be
open in clear weather, but which may be
closed by doors running on wheels when
the weather is foul With spacious yards,
such quarters are admirably adapted to
keeping sneep during the winter. In good
weather during the winter sheep do best
out of doors, and a run once a week in a
dry pasture is an advantage, as ii gives
them abundant exercise and affords a
change of food. 1t should only be
allowed. however, when the weather is
fine and the ground is dry or frozen

The best way to mend your own tugs
is to keep-some harness leather on hand
and copper rivets three-quarters inch long
and caps, with good steel-punch. If a
tug breaks, cut two strips of leather as
wide as the tug and eight inches long.
Put the broken ends together with one
piece on each side, punch and put three
rivets on each side of the break through
these strips and the tug, and head down
on caps. This makes neat and strong
mend You can mend other portions of
the harness with rivets of the proper
length, and save much time in going to
the harness maker.

A CURIOUS story of unjust justice comes
from Florence. An English resident of
that city was visited by a fellow member
of his club, an Italian, who asked him to
pay him that 5000 lire" The English
man owed him nothing, and told him So
He promptly brought suit for the fictitious
debt. The defendant, thunderstruck, con-
suited friend, who told him to leave the
whole matter in the hands of certain
lawyer. He did so. When the. trial came
off three Witnesses swore that they had
seen the money lent to the defendant. The
latter was ap"al.ed to hear his counsel say
1--WE admit the debt" and was pleasantly
stunned when six witnesses promptly
swoie that they had seen the money re
paid Verdict for the defendant. This
peculiar case throws strong light on the
Italian judicial system, though false
swearing is, unfortunately, by no means
confined to transatlantic courts.

ADVICE To AEM.-Wher all other peo.
pie but & few interest,s mes like Coy.
Aines. OF Mississippi, are urging unity
and harmony, FOR the sake Of Peace and
renewal Of prosperity, FRRpERIl Dow
GLASS, the champion negro politician, in
publication extensively copied into the
newspapers, earnestly recommends his
colored brethren in the South to arm
themselves, and prepare for war with
the whites. If such advice AS this were
given by n leading white politician of
great influence in the South to his white
brethren, the whole Northern Republi-
can press would denounce il as rank
treason and as an attempt to recon-
mence rebellion.
In FREDERICK DoUaLAss it il nothing
less than an expression Of a wish for
further bloodshed 1t is time he was
put in q mad shirt OF confined soma-
where where his Rischievous career
would lind an end. The New York
World says DOUGLASS urges the negroes
in the South to oppose the restoration
u peace and law by Democratic Gov.
ernment, and to rush madly into war
with the whites Mr. FREpERIcK Dou-
GLASS was closely connected with the
Freedmen's Bank in Washington, which
went to the bad with some four millions
OF money belonging to these his colored
brethren. The more Of the swindled de-
positors Of the bank get killed and the
longer the advent Of an investigating
Democratic Government is delayed the
better 1t will obviously be for Mr. FRED
KRIcK DoUGIAsa and all his feliow-di-
