PUREE of potatoes differs from mashed
potatoes only in the employment of
more milk and butter, and in the whole
being carefully reduced to a perfectly
smooth, thick. cream like mixture.
When economy is great object, and
where rich dishes are not desired, the
following is an admirable mode of mash
ing potatoes: Boil them till thoroughly
done, having added handful of salt to
the water, then dry them well, and with
two forks placed back to back, beat the
whole up till no humps are left. If done
rapidly, potatoes thus cooked are ex-
treinely light and digestible.

soyEL TREATMENT OF WOUNDS.

Having noticed an account OF the
somewhat novel treatment recently ap-
plied in the case of wonnd, we ad-
dressed a note of inquiry to tie gentle
mar. named Mr. 4. X. Smoot. a COM
mission merchant in Baltimore, and re-
eeivej a reply, portion Of which. by
permission We copy. Mr. Smoot says
under date of Sept. q: "On the 9Th Of
the present month accidentally jumped
from an elevation of three or four feet
on large nail or spike, driving it about
two and a half inches through my foot
This happened in the morning, and tow
ard evening the foot commenced swell
ing, and the pain increased % much that
it was with difficulty my physicians, Drs
Atkinson and Warner, could relieve me
by the use of the strongest narcotics
I slept but little during tlie night. The
next day the same treatment was contin-
ued, with the application of a hot poui-
tice to the wound. ntlIat day receiy-
ed card signed 'Sympathizer, stating
that the smoke from burning wool or
wooden rags would Immediately relieve
the pain ard the Inflammation. The
directions were to smoke the wound
twenty minutes at a time, repeating the
operation two or three times accord
ingly took piece of WOODEN blanket, and
after making fire in an iron pot sInoth-
cred it with pieces of the cloth and held
INV foot in the smoke This soon reliey-
ed the pain, the swelling went down,
and ND to the present time there has
been scarcely any Inflammation; a little
bloody water has escaped from the sore
but that is ALL Ny physicians approved
of the treatment and il has proved Of
great advantage in healing up the wound
lam now able to walk and the wound Is
doing well. / applied the smoke once
every day, and by the advice of my ply
sicians continued the hop poultice- The
treatment with the smoke is said to be
applicable to all wounds arising from
bruises, cuts, nails, and the like, and
hope it may prove beneficial to others, "

APPLES ~ THE SoUTH.-Some OF our
exchanges advise the fruit growers of
Delaware aud Maryland to substitute the
apple for the peach, since over produc
ton Of the latter fruit has made it un-
profitable for market. No doubt the
apple is the king Of fruits, and more ne
eessary than any other, but it does not
follow that it i always or generally the
most profitable fruit. Especially is this
true OF the South, which is not adapted
TO profitable apple growing. Southern
apples must be early and com. in com
petition with the giut Of summer fruits
in Northern cities In the North, where
apple growing i most profitable, summer
apples do not generally pay. As for win
ter apples, they can only be successfully
grown in northern localities, "a even the
latest varieties lose their keeping quail
ties when grown in the South. The ap-
pies Of Western New York, Michigan, and
the Northwest, sell for higher prices than
those of Ohio and Illinois, while farther
| south than these last named localities,
winter yarieii -sof apples would be of
| little value On the other hand, in such
delicate fruit as peaches, the people of
the South, aud especially of Maryland
and Delaware, have An important ad-
vantage We would not discourage
Southern farmers from growing some
apples for home use, but they will prob
ably always find it more profitable to
buy winter apples from Northern mar
| kets, and in peaches have as clearly the
advantage over their Northern brethren.
How MUCH TO FATTEY AN ANIMAL
| a farmer made an experiment He took
sheep that weighed about one hundred
| pounds, put it in a pen, and after it had
become wohted, weighed all its food and
found that three pounds per day of fod-
der and grain was all that he could eat
The farmer had verified a rule well
known to the much despised ''book-far-
mers," and arrived at by many and care
full experiments, that about three pounds
of good food per day for each one hun
dred weight of live stock is fattening
allowance. For illustration, a sheep
weighing one hundred pounds requires
three pounds Of food per day, and a
steer weighing one thousand pounds
needs thirty pounds. These rules are
approximately correct, being varied
somewhat by quality of food and stock.
The farmer, knowing the weight of his
feed and that of his stock, by applying
these rules, can guess as TO whether he
has food enough for his stock.-NdTy,

W itness giving evidence in relation to
any statements made to witness by
his wife. Judge Nelson ruled that
the witness might tell what passed
between himself and Beecher. but not
what his wife had told him. Witness
continued : MOulton brought Beecher
and retired. did not salute Beecher
nor he me. l crossed the room and
locked the door and went back and
sat opposite Beecher. l began in this
way. l think l said. presume you
received a letter from Bowen demand
ing your retirement from the pulpit
and from Brooklyn. He answered, l
did sir. l told him that he need not
fear that letter. He thanked me. l
said he need not do so; that Elizabeth
deserved his thanks, and not I. He
said that he understood the object of
this interview only in general terms
and asked me to tell him what Bowen
had said. l said 1t would be better to
go to Bowen himself told him that
Bowen had said he was intimate with
members of his congregation for
twenty-five years; that he was not a
safe man that he had ruined family
households; that he was a wolf in the
fold and should be extirpated. Bowen
had also said that he had it in his
power to drive Beecher out of Brook
lyn in twelve hours. / told him that

L told it to my wife, who was dis
tressed, and reminded me of what I
had said in the previous summer, and
that / would break my promise If l
hurt Beecher; that if he was driven
from Brooklyn it would be her shame
and that of her children. Beecher
asked me what l meant by her shame,
and read to him Elizabeth's letter of
confession. This confession was de-
stroyed by Elizabeth two years after,
and the cory was destroyed on this
evening.

NEW YORK.

New York, Feb. l.-At the opening
of the Beecher trial this morning,
Judge Nelson gave the following
opinion as TO the right of Tilton to
testify. In determining the question
raised by this objection, the court
holds: 1st. That the Plaintiff is COM
petent to be sworn and to testify on
his own behalf End. That as to the
principal question ut issue, he is not
competent to testify as to any conf
dental communication. 1t is con-
sidered that this qualified direction
respects the present statute of the law
of evidence, and also respects what
may remain of the rule which imposes
silence or restraint by reason of
marital and on the grounds of public
interest or policy. Tilton then took
the stand and was sworn, the defense
entering exceptions.
Tilton, after answering the usual
question as to age, ETC., proceeded to
state his pecuniary condition in De-
cember, 1870. L owned a residence
with its library valued at S25, 200, a
share in the New York Tribune, a
small farm in the West valued at
81, 500, piece of land in Prospect Park
valued at $1,000. There was mort
gage of $500 on the house. When
left the Independent my property was
valued at about $4,000. 1 had money
out at interest, deposited with Wood
ruff & Robinson. After Jan. 1st, 1871,
$1,000 obtained from Bowen, $4,000 from
lecturing tour, $1,000 from my books,
$4,000 from Moulton, about $4,000 from
subscribers to the Golden Age. had
no debts other than liens on my prop
erty. I did not know the source from
which the money came which was
given me by Moulton; did not know
it came from Beecber. On the 3Oth of
December, 1870, I had an interview
with Beecher. Evarts objected to

WASHINGTON.

Washington, Feb. LIN the Senate
the railroad committee held anoth er
meeting on Tom Scott's railroad bill, ,
this morning, but came to no final
action on any of its features, or pro-
posed amendments. 1t is understood
that no action will be taken until after
the arrival of Senator Ramsey.
A number of representative colored
men now here, including Rausien of
Alabama, Pinchback of Louisiana,
Gibbs, of Arkansas, togther with Fred
Douglass, George Downing, Professor
Langston and others, held a private
meeting yesterday, and agreed
upon an address, concluding as fol-
lows: " Considering that every Dem
Ocratic victory, whether won in a
Northern State or upon the floor of
Congress, tends directly to increase the
audacity and lawlessncss of the enc
mics of constitutional freedom and
union as now established. And fur
ther, considering that next to the
malign influence Of n Democratic vic
tory is the evil of timid assertion OF
rights by our friends; considering,
moreover, that any action or nom
action on the part of the Federal Gov
ernment, manifcsting its apparent
apathy and indifference to the condi-
ton of the loyal people of the South,
is promptly construed by these dis
loyal enemies into license and impu-
nifty to a renewed and redoubled
violence. We shudder at the wretched
condition of things which may rea-
sonably be expected to follow in that
section of our country, if, ia view Of
the circumstances now existing in the
United States, Congress should, after
all, adjourn without enacting and
providing for the enforcement of ap-
prOpriate laws for the better protection
of persons and property and political
rights in that section"
The House was a long time occupied
in.the discussion of points of order on
the propositions to amend the rules,
which propositions were finally re-
ferred to the committee on rules.

Paris, Feb. 1.-The assembly, tc-
day, continued the consideration of
Nentavon's constitutional bill. Bar
the, of the Left Centre, offered an
amendment, taking from the Presi-
dent the chief command of the forces.
Chaband La Tour, Minister of the
Interior, said he had authority to
state that Marshal Mcmahon would
resign the Presidency it, -debarred the
privilege of drawing his sword in
defense of his country. The amend
ment was therefore withdrawn. An
amendment giving the President, with
the concurrence Of the Senate, power
to dissolve the Assembly, was referred
to the committee on constitutional
bills, which subsequently reported
against that portion requiring the
concurrence of the Senate, thus Ieav-
ing the power with the President
alone. The power, however, not to
be continued to other Presidents. This
decision is contrary to the vote of last
Saturday, whereby the Assembly in
dicated that it was in favor of a con-
stitution as opposed to personal law.
