more sense to be an excellent cook than
tolerable lawyer. am good cook
myself, and have no accomplishment
of which I am SO proud. The farmers
should have good things to cook and
good things to cook with. Of all peo-
pie in our country, you should live the
best. Throw your miserable little stoves
out of the window. Get ranges; and
have them SO built that your wife need
not burn her face off to get you break
FAST : It Is Just Is cheap to have every
thing convenient. It is Just as easy to
cook well a. to cook any other way.
There ought to be law passed making
it a crime, punishable with ,imprison-
ment in the Penitontiary, to fry beef
steak. Broil it; it is just as easy; and
when broiled it is delicious. Fried
beefsteak isn't fit for a beast. Give
your wives and daughters the convent
ences, and in a little while they will be
most excellent cooks. Good cooking is
one of the highest arts of civilization;
and we are more indebted to this art
in developing real manhood than, to al
most any other. The man whose AFTER
les are filled with good, rich blood,
made of good and we1l-cooked food, has
pluck, c0urge, endurance and noble i'm
pulses. You must remember that if
you wish your wife to cook well, she
must have the conveniences to cook
with. See to it that there is plenty Of
good wood, plenty Of good coal, plenty
Of good kindling and plenty to cook:
There is no reason why farmers should
/ not have fresh meat all the wear round.
There is no sense in. stufIing yourself
with salt meat every morning, and max

don't enjoy good health. There is no
sense in this. Every, farmer should

Twas late, and the gay company was gone,
And light lay soft on the deserted room
From aabaster vases, and a scent
OF orange leaves ana sweet herbena came
Through the unshuttered window on the air
And the rich pictures, with their dark old TINS
Hung like n twilight landscape and all things
Seemed hushed into slumber Isabel,
The dark'oyed, spiritual Isabel,
Was leaning on her harp, and had stayed
To whisper what ! could not when the crowd
Hung on her look like worshipers knelt
And with the fervor of lip unused
To the cool breath of reason, told my love
There was no answer, and took the hand
That rested on the strings, and pressed kiss
Upon il uuforbiddcn-and again
Besought her, that this silent evidence
That was not Indifferent to her heart,
Might have the seal of one sweet syllable.

Hiding horseback, just at night,
through the woods in Signor county,
Mich, came into the clearing, in the
middle of which stood a log house, its
owner sitting in the open door, smoking
bis pipe. Stopping my horse before
him, the following conversation ensued:

BY this timo his wife was standing at

While drinking it asked:

away" said The wife.
Again asked
"iIow much land have you got

well, really don't know. Ask
the old woman she knows"
"About nineteen acres" said she
again answering.
Just then troop Of children came

RICHARD H. SHUcK, the murderer
of his father-in-law, Nelson Parrish,
in Owen county, was last Friday, at
Owenton, hung for the crime, commit
ted little over a year ago. He pro-
tested his innocence to the end, and
bis last words, as they feebly came
from under the black cap a moment
before the trap was sprung, were,
Gentlemen, please don't hang me, l
am an innocent man." He bore him
self through the trying ordeal with the
utmost composure and showed no signs
of fear until the above words were ut
tered. His execution was witnessed
by thousands of men and women who
were drawn together by morbid de-
sire to see fellow man suffer an igno-
death.

The Baptist Visitor, very creditably
gotten up paper, recently started al
Lexington to advocate the interests Of
the colorcd people and which is edited
by a colored man, the Rev. VIM.
Gray. has the following very sensible
suggestions to the colored voters;
We are to look to the interest Of our dis
tricts, not men nor parties. We should moi
unite ourselves to the title Of Republican
or Democrat; but to the man, or set Of men
who can do us the most good We must
cease to be driven to the polls by the crack
Of the whip, by some officer manipulation
as though we were drove Of sheep, or &c
many hogs. We intend TO exercise out
elective franchise as wisdom may dictate
and put in our vote hereafter where II will
do the most good.

MEssRs. S. Z. HALE and j. II.
Virgins, Of Louisville, authors Of
new book entitled "a Manuel Of Sa-
cred History designed to accompany
work entitled the Ancient World and
the Land of the Patriarchs," are in
Stanford this week endeavoring to
procure agents for certain prescribed
territories in this and adjoining coun-
ties. The book is dedicated to our Ia
mented John c. Breckenridge, and is
a most valuable and complete epitome
Of the Bible. It's especially adapted
to Sunday Schools and those seeking
Biblical knowledge, and to such we
commend it as almost invaluable. Six
large maps of the ancient countries
are included in the work, the whole
being placed at figure that makes il
in the reach of nearly every one.
