Our Spelling Match.

According to notice, the NJ. E. Church was
filed to over-fowing, on Monday evening, to
witness the ''speH." In the absence of Mr..
Gressinger, Mr.. Alexis Cope was chosen Cap
tain. The McGuffey Speller was taken as
standard, and after tossing up for ''head and
tails" Dr.. II. West made the first choice,
which was followed alternately by each Cap
tain. Thirty-one were chosen on each side.
Prof. j. j. Burns and l. NJ. Riley each in
turn gave out words, commencing with Baby,
Lady, Lazy, &c. A great many of the best
spoilers were seated with very simple words,
and to go into detail would occupy too much
of our space; hence we will enumerate few
of the trips among our prominent spoilers
1t might be well to state that a great deal of
embarrassment prevailed throughout the whole
exercise. Judge Cowen could not find a
''hollow place" for Cavity; James Frazier
would not hang on the Belfry; James Giffen
couldn't take part in the Campaign; Frank
Cowen didn't want Rhubarb in his Robt.
Collins was not Roman; A. T. McKelvey
knew nothing of the Strata of the earth A.
P. Blair became peaceful on thoughts of Hal
cyon; Enoch Neff was too far away to make
Besiege; Jos. Close didn't like parsnip; Thos.
Martin couldn't Rein his tongue properly :;
Jas. Matthew was not in need of Poultice :;
DIR. H. Vests knowledge of natural history
made him lose his Captainship on Botanic;
Frank Barnes ''hooked" on Aquiline; VIII
Shannon would not get Tyrannic; Maud
Bentley proved the right-hand man for DR..
Vests side and remained standing when call
but him had fed" but was eventually stolen
by Thief; we were not Laudable Among
the ladies who spelled, we might mention Miss
Ryan, who knew nothing of Subpoena, accord
ing to McG.; Miss \. Adams was not liable
to be Fallible; Miss Jessie Longley sit down
with the Veil; Miss Emma Lewis went s'down
and out " on Madam; Miss Mamie Kennon was
not strong enough for Rugged; Miss Mamie
Grove was not versed sufficiently in architec-
ture for Tuscan; Miss Jennie Stamp weakened;
Miss r. Billingsly went out on Frieze; Miss
Mary Giffen had not attained to the position of
Amateur; Miss Emma Thompson was too dry
to comprehend Serious; Miss Jennie Hammond
Vacillate-d not but went down; Miss Simpson
Fascinated; Miss Jennie Burns sit down with
her Equpagc. Among those who stood till

AN old farmer, an enemy to all secret
societies, living not forty miles from
here, had occasion To come to town.
He wished to consult a lawyer; he had
some business in one of the public
offices; and lastly, but not leastly, his
wife had two and half pounds of good
fresh butter, she wished him 20 carry
to private family. He stepped into
the lawyers Office and thought he saw
two or three of its inmates concealing
documents surely, bylaws, rules and
regulations of some secret-order. He
made his stay short. He next visited
the public office. They hid something.
1t struck him forcibly it was revolvers.
He took his butter to its destination
was shown into the parlor, whilst it
would be weighed and stored away.
Several young folks were .congregated
there-but just SO soon as he put in an
appearance-he saw them hiding dag
gers and poison. Grave-yards could
be seen in their very looks. He could
feel the cold chills chasing each other
up and down his back. He made his
stay short. He felt it in bis bones
that the good and great government
was about to be overthrown by secret
organizations, and he stood rightin the
midst. When he arrived home he
examined his little crib and trundle
beds, ard found his children were Sc
curely.. wrapped in the arms Of Nor
pheus-a alive and Well. He asked his
better half if she had not presentiments
of evil-some terrible calamity. She
at once inquired the grounds of his sus-
pieions. He explained till he was out
of breath. She took in the whole situ-
alton at glance. and relieved him by
telling him that the weapons were on
Iy Nc. Gufey's Eclectic Spelling Book-
and that these persons were but secretly
Frightening up for the spelling school.
He now breathes more freely-and has
no fears from secret organizations

The following in reference to Honey
is from an experienced bee keeper:
The way to keep honey from granu-
lating or candying given in the CHRoN-
ICLE, two weeks since, is an extract
from very scientific article but is no
account whatever. The rays of light
never cause honey to candy-it de-
pends entirely upon the temperature
but it is not always convenient to keep
honey where it is warm; and the way
to make it clear after it has granulated
is to set the vessel containing it in
warm water, or where it will become
heated, but never let it boil--that spoils
its flavor badly. In buying honey in
the winter season always select that
which is candied if you can find it, be-
cause that is the best guarantee of its
pnrity. Honey put up and sold to the
trade by Eastern honey merchants nev-

largely adulterated with an article call
ed glucose, which is shipped from
France by the ton to the so called honey
packing establishments ofeastern eli les.

LAST week the infant child of Clinton Bar
Der, residing mile below Dorseys Mills, was
burned to death in the cradle. The mother of
the child who was engaged in her usual house
hold duties left the infant in the cradle and an
older child together in the sitting-room and
absented herself to some other part of the
house for a few minutes, and during her alb
sence it is thought that the older child was
amusing itself by playing with the fire and ac-
cidently set on fire the clothes in the cradle.
This sad accident should be another gentle
reminder to parents.
