Hints for Housekeepers.

There is hardly any one thing in house
keeping that more surely promotes the com-
fort Of family, and insures good manners
aud respectabiity, than a well-set family
table. 1t should always be covered with a
cloth Of some sort, clean aud whole. The
dishes should be whole and shining for
nothing disgusts a fastidious person more
than a sticky cup or tnmbler at the table.
The plates should be put ON evenly and care
fully, and not look as though pitched on, as
one pitches quaits. The various dishes of
food should be arranged with an eye to SYM
metry, and it is so much pleasanter 10 even
an uncultiyated eye to see things look
nicely, that it pays the trouble. The exer-
else Of taste and little care is economical.
Cut a loaf Of bread evenly and squarely
across and pile the slices neatly on the plate,
and it viii be more acceptable than if hetced
off, as | have seen it, with one corner two
inches thick aud the opposite with no thick
ness at all
1t is often said by farmers wives at
will do for city folks to fuss over a table, but
We have not the time" This is mistake
If one acquires the habit of putting down a
dish just where it ought TO be, and arranging
little details, it takes but a moment-and
when seated at the table, it actually rests the
tired housekecper 70 see a well-ordered meal
before her however simple and plain it may
be. When one sets down to table with the
cloth put on askew. no two dishes of the same
pattern, but looking as though gathered up
after somebody had moyed-there is sense
Of discomfort, aud Of something wanting
BY all means should the girls be taught very
early to set table nicely, and with good
taste.
Last, but not least, teach the girls, and
boys too, the art Of eatiag their food in
quiet and orderly fashion. 1t is surprising
how few, even in good society, know how to
eat. II one chooses to eat with knife, it is
no sin, but it need not be thrust down ones
throat at every mouthful, or licked as dog
licks bone. The elbows should not be held
out at right angles, or placed upon the table.
but kept close to the side, and the food put
into the mouth quickly and with a motion
that hardly allows the knife or fork to touch
the lips, and then chewed noiselessly.
These are small matters, but it is 10y such
things aperson is judged and assigned his or
her position in society: then why not culti-
yate such manners As are most agreeable to
others CoNrRInrroR.

But the fate of all children is not 80 hap
py. In return for their little condolences,
the outpourings Of head and heart many re-
ceive a rebuff a rebuke, ridicule or cruelty
in another form The treatment some chill
dren receive from their parents is such as
can be only explained ON the theory that
they come into the world Of their own free
will, unwelcome intruders upon fathers aud
mothers, who regard their appearance and
presence as an insolence deserving insolent
treatment. How many people in your
neighborhood, think you, would, IL you
should ask them whether or not they would,
in view Of what life proves to be in Joy and
sorrow, with the grave at the end, have choe-

intelligent choice Life is hard struggle
with the majority of us, and the wearied
woman who assumes the responsibility Of
calling q human soul into existence, should
never forget the immensity Of the duty in

An unfeeling and cruel parent is a monster

SO to 90 back 10 the beginning, to the
young woman and her first love-letter, re-
member TO treat the condolences Of your
child with the same delicacy and honor you
would accord TO similar ones made by an
adult. You may not be able TO smooth his
way through life with such helps as money
and position give, but you may make his
childhood the seed-time OF noble harvest

he will look back with gratitude and ten
derness, that will ever keep one place in his

growu-up young woman was telling me,
not long ago, of the trials Of her childhood.
One event made a marked impression upon
her-the reception of her first love letter
-" ! was not more than six years old" she
said, "aud had not learned TO write flow

lowed us once a week TO have post office.
and send letters to whomever we pleased.
Upon one of these occasions | was delighted
to find that some one had written to me. 1t
was a real little love letter. beginning with,
My Dear Little Sweet Heart : but as
could only read printed letters, was obliged
TO get some one TO read my letter for me-
and who should it be ? The writer was a
dear little fellow nine years old he wore a
high neckod, blue checked apron. and
thought he was the incest boy in the world,
and | already began to dream of living With
him, as his little wife, in play house. My
first thought was to ask my teacher to read
the letter for me; and then thought she
might laugh, or tell some of the scholars,
and | could not bear the thought of ridcule.
So | said | would takeit home to my mother,
who would never laugh, but think, with me,
that 1t was very nice. So | trudged home
with the precious missiye, and creeping TO
my mothers side, asked her to read it for

Rev. Lewis W. Green, ID. d., was one of
the most learned men and finished orators of
the Presbyterian church in this country lie
was companion of Tom Marshall's boyhood
and a friend of his later years, and related
the following facts to the writer;
Tom Marshall was going to school near
Pisgah, in Central Kentucky, and at school
We're several young men who have since be-
come noted. A revival of religion had occur
red, at which several of the boys made a
profession. A prayer meeting was organized,
conducted by the young fellows. At one Of
these meetings Marshall was present. His
thoughts were serious, and he had been deeply
considering the salvation of his soul. Mar
shall was very ambitious Fame as AN ora
tor was then the great desire of his soul,
and he had deliberately concluded TO adopt
that profession which would give most scope
to his powers of oratory. The orators of the
State, nay of the nation, were then found not
in the pulpit, but in the forum, and on the
hustings, and the law and politics were Sc
lected by Marshall as his arena for success.
But these religious thoughts disturbed his
plans, and called him away from the paths
Of fame to an humble service Of God. He
went to the prayer meeting deeply revolving
the question whether TO give up fame or re-
ligion. One of the young gentlemen led in
prayer, and was more than usually fervent
and moving in his petitions. Marshall, with
the rest, was on his knees during the prayer.
But in the midst of it Marshall got up and
rushed out of the house. lie was asked why
he did so, and replied, II felt that il | remain
ed in that house until that prayer was con-
cluded | must decide for religion and
against fame, and then must 60 into the
pulpit and had determined for the law"
Such was Marshall's decision. lie studied
law; studied politics was famous orator.
lie did not enter public life until near thir-
ty years OF age. At forty he was famous as
an orator and drunkard. lie states him
self that then he enjoyed all over the country.
from Boston to New Orleans, the "detestable
reputation of being sot, with one foot in
the grave and an understanding almost totally
overthrown." lie denied then the accusation,
saying that he was one OF "your sprceing
gentry" "AIy sprees, however, began to
crowd each other, and my best friends feared
they would run together, and he signed the
pledge, but did not remain long sober "Ihe
feyerish thirst, that horrible yearning after
the distillations from the alembic oil hell
which Is sure TO scorch in the throat and con-
sume the vitals Of the confirmed drunkard
ciiA fres kindled for eternity" soon became
his. His sprees did ''run together" and
Marshall died without influence, and left a
tale OF wasted life. OF his future--his lot
in the land beyond the grave--he gave this
account 10 DIR. l.. w Green. The conversa-
tion took place at the Phoenix Hotel, la
Lexington, believe, in 1856 Marshall said
10 Green that he knew that there was no
mercy for him that he was doomed man,
only waiting death to enter upon the career
Of the eternally lost.

A TRoUTs REcoGNITIoS.-Some years
ago, as we are told by Boston clergyman,
who vouches for its truth, trout was kept
in large water-vat at the San Francisco
water-works. II was the custom of visitors
to feed the fish with pieces of bread and
meat, which it would readily take from their
fingers. One of the clerks, with less human
ity than love Of fun, one day attached hook
to piece of meat, caught the trout, and
pulledtit out of the water, but Immediately
put it back again. From that day forward,
the trout would never take anything from
the hand of that clerk, although it would
readily feed from the hands Of any other
person while the clerk stood by. This is a
fact.

LAST Saturday night about l24 o'clock, &
rather daring exploit was engaged in, at the
residence of Enoch d. Crawford, Esq, foul
miles southwest of this place. A party OF
men bursted in the outside kitchen door and
the sitting room door, leading from the kitch.
en-, with heavy rail. After getting into the
sitting room, by the light of sperm candle
they took a survey of the premises and of an
adjoining bedroom. Finding no one down
stairs, they were about to proceed to the up
per story of the house, which was reached by
narrow winding stair, where Mr.. and Mrs.
Crawford were sleeping, but upon opening the
stair door, they heard some one stirring.
Crawford, at this stage of the proceedings,
inquired what was wanted, when one of the
party remarked to his pals "Here is the man
we want now; go for HIM" The jingle of a
musket, which was loaded to the muzzle, ad-
msnished the ruffians that they had better not
undertake to storm Mr.. C's position, so after
considering moment what to do, they lit out,
leaving several heavy clubs and the rails on
the floor. What these men wanted we will
leave our readers to conjecture; they were not
evangelists, certainly. This will serve as an
other warning to persons living in isolated
places, and comparatively alone, that it is
their duty to be in a shape to protect theu-
selves from such roaming scoundrels.
