The Returning Tide of Emigra
ton.

If the United States take from us the
largest number of emigrants, says the
London Times, they also give back to
US the most considerable immigration
In the last three years nearly a quarter
of million of persons have come back
to this country from the States.
The commercial crisis and depression
of business in the United States may
have had much to do with this observ-
ed result, which it would be rather rash
to consider as other than temporary
modification of the main tendencies OF
population changes; but it justifies the
observation that the number of emf
grants who have gone to the United
States for permanent settlement has
diminished recently, or "their place
has been taken by emigrants of an older
date or native-born Americans coming
to this country" 1t is significant
enough that last year the inward cur
rent almost precisely equaled the out
ward in volume. More than 81 900 per-
sons left our shores for the United
States, and more than 80, 900 returned
from the United States to the British
Isles, Signor Boselli, Deputy in
the Italian Parliament, has
been making a speech
to his constituents at Savonna, on the
occasion of festival of industry. These
are some of his words: ssThe condi-
ton of the laborer in the Republic of
Switzerland, as in the constitutional
monarchy of Holland, is good. In the
Republic of the United States, as in the
constitutional monarchy of England,
the condition of the laborer is not good.
The America described by De Tocque-
vile no longer exists. In America the
excess of moral culture withdraws the
citizen from manual labor All wish to
be shopkeepers or clerks, and, rather
than engage in manual labor, prefer to
leave the places where they were born.
Republican institutions do not suffice to
render the laborers content. The
American workman is worse off than
the English. The hours of labor are
excessive, and there is absence of laws
to regulate the matter. The worst of
aristocracies, that of wealth without
traditions, armed with q monopoly of
Government, presses upon the poorer
classes, while great corporations create
a new sort of feudalism, which we hope
will not come at last to corrupt the in
situations and Cypress the laborers of
other Countries So. .,.r-,-,... a.. Ii.

False and True.


Beside the stream maiden roamcd,
And met the knight whose troth she held,
A crimson blush her cheek suffused,
And in her heart sweet fancies swelled.
But he must to the war depart.
And came to bid = long farewell;
What bitter tears she shed that day,
HOY sad the parting-who can tel?.
ION, fair my love, and sweet my love.
Our future meeting will but prove,
Naught can ever our lives sever
When our hearts are bright with Lowell"
The war was Ger, and by the stream
The happy maiden lightly stepped,
To meet her knight where last they met,
And laugh with joy where then she wept.
But BY his side another rode,
With love-lights in her soft blue eyes;
And as to her he murmurs low
His old loves heart breaks in deep signs.
"Oh, mir my love, and sweet my love,
Our future meeting will but prove,
Naught can ever our lives sever
When our hearts are bright with Lowell"

DOMESTIC ECONOMY.

APPLE BREADTH quart of meal
put pint of ripe chopped apples, 1
egg, a small piece of butter, and just
fresh water enough to form stiff
dough. The apples should, of course,
be peeled and minced very fine. Some
persons like little sugar on the dough,
but it is generally preferred without.
This is a favorite with children. OF
course do not omit little salt.
TOMATO CATsUP.-Take ripe toma-
toes, wash but not skin them, and
boil hour. Then put through hair
sieve. To 1 quart of juice add 1 quart
each of cinnamon, black pepper and
good mustard, teaspoonful of cayenne
pepper, nutmeg, and teacupful of
salt. Boil hours. Then to quart of
juice add 1 quart Of pure cider vinegar.
Boil hour longer; bottle while hot and
seal carefully with cement.
SAvoRY BREAD PUDDING.-Pour
pint of beef-tea, boiling, over the
crumb of French roll. Beat well to-
gether, and let it soak for 1 an hour !;
then add eggs beaten with / pint of
boiling milk; season with pepper and
salt, beat together for minutes, and
then put the pudding into buttered
tart-dish, and bake rather quickly for
I hour. If there is no objection, an
onion well boiled and beaten to pulp
may be added to the pudding.
GRAHAM MUFFINs.-2 cupfuls good
buttermilk, tablespoonful of thick,
sweet cream, 1 egg well beaten, 2 even
tablespoonful soda, teaspoonful salt,
cupfuls of Graham flour and cup of
white flour or good shorts. Stir all to-
gether with a spoon, then heat your
muffin-rings or gem-pan very hot in the
oven, remove long enough to rub over
each department with bit of lard, then
put one spoonful into each quickly and
return to the oven, which should be
hot enough to bake at once, but not to
burn. @ fT
GRILLED SLICES OF MUTToN.-Cut
some rather thick slices of under-done
mutton, score them well, and rub in
plentifully some common mustard, salt,
and cayenne pepper; then broil them
over clear fire, and serve with the fol-
lowing sauce: Take gill of good gravy,
mix it with 1 tablespoonful of mush-
room cutsup, l of French mustard, and
little grated lemon-peel; add a thick
ening of butter and flour and a few
drops of lemon-juice, simmer till quite
hot, pour over the grill and serve.

An Alpine Accident--TwO Men

The London Times says: A fatal dis
aster happened on the Felix Joch on

Lys, at the head Of the Gressonay Val
ley, at a. m. on Monday morning,
with the intention of traversing the Fe-
lik Joch to the Riffe1 Hotel, on the Ter
matt side of the range. Owing to a
fog, the party kept too much to the
right, but succeeded in almost reaching
a ridge east of, but good deal higher
than the Felix Joch. Here it was neces-
sary that they should proceed along a
very steep slope of snow, overhanging
an ice wall of great depth, and, when
on it, an avalanche of snow precipitated
the whole party down the ice wall.
Two of the party-Mr. Hayman and
Ignatze Sarback-escaped with their
lives, but the other two-Mr. johnson

Hayman over the ridge to the Zermatt
side of the Felix Joch, where, exposed
to the inclemency of the weather, and
totally devoid of provisions, they passed
the night on the snow, half an hour be-
low the summit of the Col. Here, at
10 a. m. on the following day, large
party, which had started from the Riffel
Hotel to make the ascent of Castor,
found Mr.. Hayman almost in a state of
collapse, with both hands frostbitten, and
Ignatze Sarback with the use of both
hands also gone from the samo cause.
With great difficulty Mr.. Hayman was
conveyed to the Riffel Hotel, and, al
though yesterday evening in a very crit
zeal state, to-day he is out of danger.

there were only As left, and now the

the fee. This was given. Booth wheeled
