WASHINGTON TEL EGRAPH1c NOTES.

WA5hlSuIoN lei Gbnaf NV ANVIL Ss
WASHINGTON, January 16.-William Or
ton, president OF the Western Union Tele-
graph Company, has been subpenaed as a
member Of the Executive Committee,
through an omnibus subpoena for all the
members thereof. to appear before the Com
mittee on Privileges and Elections OF the
Senate.
The Joint committee on counting the
electoral vote had two long sessions to-day,
and, Notwithstanding their determination
to act definitely to-day, made such progress
towards an agreement as to consent to an
other meeting tomorrow, which will GER
tainly be the last. The details OF the situa-
ton are absolutely inaccessible. An agree
ment is quite probable.
In connection with the joint Committee
on the Electoral Count, it is said they adj
journed till tomorrow in the belief that
another conference will result in satisfac-
tory agreement. Members say, however, 1t
is BY no means certain that this expectation
will be realized; but if to-morrow's session
should fail to bring them into harmony on
some plan for settling the questions at issue
they will hold no further conference. 1t is
the present understanding that in either
event the committees will report to their re-
spectiye houses Tomorrow. It is lntimated
that the compromise measure which has
been substantially agreed upon will prove
surprise to the public, as it embraces fea'
lures that have not yet been conjectured by
persons outside OF the committees.
The Treasury Department clerks who
were: furloughed for five months without
pay in February, 1876, aud who were re-
fused discharge by Secretary BristoW june
Goth following, by which they would have
been entitled to two months pay under
Buffers resolution, and who afterward sued
for seven months pay, yesterday were
|.awarded Judgment by the Court OF Claims
for the full amount. The Assistant Attor.
;ney-3 General noted an appeal to the Supreme
Court Of the United States.
There was full Cabinet to-day. No IN
structions have been sent to: New Orleans
since Sunday, and none were ordered by
the Cabinet. The details OF the meeting.
however, have not yet transpired.
The Committee on Privileges and Elee
tions examined g.. A. Wilson, district at

counties. He had no knowledge OF unfair
ness or intimidation before or at the cleo

SPEECH OF JUDGE MACKEY-DISTREss AMONG
CoLoRED LABORERs, Columbia, 5. e.,
January 15.-Great efforts have been made
during the last week to get up demonstra-
ton Of Republican taxpayers to- offset the
recent Hampton meeting. The affair took
place to-day, and the Republican Taxpayers
present numbered just two hundred, IN
Guiding two women and some boys. All
were colored, reporter being the only
white person present. The white Republic
cans who suggested it were ashamed of the
gathering, and the proceedings were man
aged exclusively by colored politicians.
No answer has yet been returned to the
demand OF the Democratic State officers.
The Republicans profess to have expected
an attempt at forcible election. Two COM
panies of negro nlilitla, fully armed and
equipped, paraded the streets for several
hours to-day to show that force would be
met by force. -, r'..#ssf d, 3. So. ,.i,...

RECIPE FOR BUTTER.

In a small work, describing the
method of making butter in Pennsyl-
vania, near Philadel phia, celebrated
in the market of that city, | find the
following: "Take Of saltpeter one
part, of loaf-sugar one part, OF tine
rock-salt two parts; beat the mass
to a fine powder, and use one ounce
of the composition to a pound OF but
ter. This will give it peculiar, rich
flavor, but it should not be used be-
fore two weeks old. Butter is often
injured by using too much salt in
preserving it; but this composition
renders it unnecessary to salt to ex-
cess. For immediate use, salt alone
is preferable.' This recipe is for
butter that may be kept perfectly
sweet for months. The best salt must
be used (Ashton's Liverpool is the
most used, TOR butter cannot be de-
pended on to keep long. The follow
ing is a good test before using it:
Dissolve little in glass lumber; if
the brine formed is clear and free
from bitter taste, the silt is good if
on the contrary, it is of a milky ap-
pearance, leaves any sediment or
throws scum to the surface, it should
be rejected There are times when
the butter comes, that it is soft and
warm, and difficult to take out. Then
the milk should be removed, and the
churn half filled with ice-cold milk
or pure ice water, and churned until
the butter hardens. If the ice disap.
pears before this takes place, then it
must be renewed. If the butter comes
rather warm, put in twice the salt
you usually do, work your butter
just enough to mix the salt well
through it, and set it away in a cool
place for a hours, then take it up.
and work it over; much of the salt
will be dissolved and worked out.

THINNING FRUIT.-At the regular
meeting of the American Institute
Farmers Club, a member said that in
abundant seasons it is absolutely nee
cssary to thin fruit for profit. Thin
ming saves labor in the regular pick
ing, asserting and packing, If all
fruit growers will thin they will soon
gain large, fine fruit. Some varieties
Of peaches-the Barnard, for instance
pay we'll for thinning. The cost
for thinning peaches will not exceed
five cents per basket, but will bring
almost or double the usua. price per
basket, beside producing favorable
effect in the next year S growth of the
fruit and wood. The process of thin
ming is very simple and easy, and
was given for the benefit Of any who
CHANGED TO be informed In thinning
leave one peach on a limb six inches
long. On last seasons growth make
the spaces as even as possible on the
tree, distributing them so they can
not rub one another or the neighbour
ing limbs and fruits. Finish thinning
one limb at time and work from the
centre Of the tree. This member
thinped his pears as we'll as his
peaches. lie leaves but one pear on
spur, picking off from one-half to
one third of the fruit. Weak trees
should be thinned more than strong
ones. Apples liable to overbear are in
creased in size, color and quality by
thinning.
