DR.. A. REYNOLDS, Of the Hospital,
was in Washington, D. G., last week, at
tending the thirty-third annual meeting
of the Association of Medical Superin-
tendents of American Institutions for
the Insane. The association numbers
12O members, of whom 80 were present
at this meeting, the object of which
was the discussion of methods and in
terchange of experiences in reference to
their peculiar duties. We are indebted
to DR.. Reynolds for Washington papers
containing interesting reports of the
proceedings. In perusing them, we
were particularly struck with the evil
dence afforded of the increase of insani-
tv throughout the country Almost
every Superintendent present reported
his institution filled with patients much
beyond its proper capacity.

REV Roswell FOSTER, of the Con-
gregational Church, preached most
powerful sermon last Sunday evening,
against the sin Of liquor selling, and, as
was to be expected, treated the subject
in an original and striking manner, AL
lowing the liquor manufacturing and
dealing interest to speak for them
selves in defense of the traffic, through
the resolutions adopted at the National
convention Of it's representatives, held
at Boston, about three years ago, the
reverend gentleman took up each depre-
catory plea, made in the manifesto is
sued by the assembled liquor dealers,
showed it's inconsistency with reason,
patriotism, sound judgment and human
ity, and mercilessly exposed the insin-
cerity and hypocricy of the authors.
1t was a logical and convincing refuta-
ton of the best arguments that can be
produced, for tolerance of the traffic in
rum, and most terrible arraignment of
the men through whose greed for gain,
a giant calamity walks through the land.

A WORTHY Personal---very. citi-
zen who has the intrests and prosperity
Of our city at hand will not fail to see
how much good roads leading into town
have to do with that prosperity and
success. We are almost wholly depend
ent upon the country about us, and we
cannot overlook the advantage to be
derived from furnishing our customers
in the country easy access to us in
bad weather. 1t is thereupon with
much qualification that we note
movement set on foot by Messrs KEN
merer and Walker to improve the road
leading west from town to the fair
ground, about the worst peice of high
way in this vicinity at almost any time
of year. The gentlemen named have
succeeded in making arrangements with
the Burlington railroad managers by
which they are to be furnished $50 car
loads of gravel at the very low price of
81 per car delivered here. With this
amount Of gravel it is expected to give
the road bed 10 inches deep between
the railroad track and the fair ground.
A sum of $500 is required to utilize
this offer, and the gentlemen named
have started subscription paper among
our business men and other citizens to
raise the amount, with fair encourage
ment so we hear. 1t should not be nee
essary to urge any man who can to con-
contribute to this end, for nothing is
better calculated to add to the attrac-
tions and advantages of our city than
good roads leading into it. We hope
that Messrs. Kemmerer and Walker
will find no obstacles to the accomp-
lishment of this worthy prospect.

AMONG other interesting features of
the coming observance of Decoration
Day in this city, will be an original po-
EN- from the pen of James Young, the
Westburg poet. 1t will be remembered
that he furnished an unpromptu poem
upon this occasion last year, which was
conceded by all who heard or read it, to
be one of the best features of the pro-
gramme. With more time, he will I'M
doubtedly contribute poem this year,
which will do himself and the county
great credit.

SINGULAR ACcIDENT.-Mrs. r. ia
cobs, of this city, met with very sing
ular, though unfortunate accident to
her eyes, one day this week She was
spreading some sheets upon the grass
to bleach in the sun, last Monday, when
the rays of the sun, rejecting from the
white cloth, pierced her left eye, nearly
binding it. inflammation set in, and for
a few days she could see nothing from
it. 1t is growing stronger now, howev.
er, and will probably be well in a few
days. The other eye was not affected.

The woman question promises to be
entirely overhauled at Boston over the
question of teaching Greek at the
girls high school and admitting girls to
the Latin school. The girls high school
is already teaching Latin to $50 girls,
and only needs Greek to be able to fit
girls for Boston university, the only
collegiate institution il the vicinity
which admits girls. The latin school
fits boys for Harvard, but lacks several
English branches necessary to fit them
for Boston university. The rivalries of
old and young universities apparently
enter into the affair. Nevertheless, the
last Harvard examinations for women
are deemed to have been very success
full, and TO have results no different
than if the examines had been boys.

Domestic Recipes.

Breakfast Muflins.-Two eggs, well
beaten with cupful of sugar, and a
lump Of butter the size of an egg; to
this add one pint of milk, with tea
spoonful of soda; one quart of flour and
two tablespoonful of cream tartar.
Bake in muffin rings, or in gem pans in
quick oven. This is dainty substi-
tute for bread at breakfast or tea.
Goldfish and Eggs.-Shred fine and
properly soak some Goldfish. Press it
dry as possible. To one cup of fish, add
one cup of eggs removed from the shell;
beat the two well together and drop in
spoonfuls into hot pan and fry light
brown on both sides. l use half lard
and half butter to fry them in. Very
nice.
italian Rice.-Put half pound of
rice into two and half pints of cold
water; boil it gently two hours, by
which time it will be p thick paste; then
add one pint of skim-milk, and one
ounce of strong Cheshire cheese grated
fine, little pepper and salt, and boil
gently for another hour. Serve hot.
Orange Cake.-Two cups of sugar.
yolks of five eggs, whites of two eggs,
half cup of cold water, two and half
cups of flour, two teaspoonfuls of bak-
ing powder, the juice and grated rind
of one orange and pinch of salt; bake
in jelly cake tins. Beat the whites of
two eggs to stiff froth, add seven large
tablespoonfuls of powdered sugar and
the grated rind and juice of one orange.
Spread this between the layers. If you
like the taste of orange, you will like
this cake.
Oyster Short Cake.-This is very
nice, and the pastry can be made as for
any other short-cake. While the cake
is baking, boil one quart of oysters with
half cup of water, half cup of milk
and half cup of butter, season with
pepper, salt and thicken with spoon
full of corn starch. When the cake is
done split open and spread the oysters
between the pieces and some on top.
Sweet reads.-Sweet-B Breads should
always be blanched; that is, after they
have been soaked and cleansed i'm luke
warm water, throw them into boiling
water for five or ten minutes, according
to their size; lift them into fresh cold
water and let stand until cold. This
makes them firm and white. Then cut
in slices and fry carefully in butter I'M
til they are nice brown. Remove
them from the pan, make nice
gravy Of flour properly seasoned with
pepper, salt and little lemon juice,
mot extract,) and return the sweet
breads to the pan and let them stew in
the gravy. Ii you have it, just before
serving, add half tea cup of sweet
cream, but do not let that boil. Send
to table in hot tureen. Time of cook
ing after they are blanched, thirty to
forty-five minutes, according to size.
Cookies.-Three eggs, three cups of
sugar, one cup butter or lard, one cup
sour cream, (butter milk will do one
teaspoonful saleratus, season TO taste.
Save little of the sugar to put on the
top. This will make quite a quantity,
but they will keep a long time, indeed,
they improve with age.

The employment of women i'm the tel

The employment of women in the tel
egraph department has been a COM
plete success in England. Over ], 100
are employed in London, and there has
been but one dismissed in four years.
Their hours of work are from A. NJ 10
SP. NJ, each being on duty eight con-
secutive hours out of the twelve. In
the establishment there are kitchen
and dining-rooms, and the girls have a
thoroughly good dinner for twenty
cents. The pay begins at 81 week,
which is raised to SO when girl is COM
petent. Girls may e-.er from IA to Is.
The average pay received is $3.50 a
week, and the highest is $50 week.
A clerk who has worked for thirty
years at $50 week would have S3.7

Eighteen mills on the Sabine river
in Louisiana, which have been engaged
for some years past In the productive
industry of saving up lumber stolen
from the United States government,
are to be punished, and several others
on the Mississippi and st. Croix rivers
are to share the same fate. The gov
eminent has received payment for a
very inconsiderable portion of this
timber. Agents have recently seized
So, 900 in Louisiana and $4,000 worth
along the Mississippi and st. Croix
rivers. 1t is the purpose of the Interior
Department to make no compromise,
and Congress will be asked to modify
the law relative to the sale of pine
lands.

The Force or Truth.

Dreadful limits are set in nature to
the powers of discrimination. Truth
tyrannizes over the unwilling members
of the body. Face never lie, it is said.
No man need be deceived who will
study the changes of expression. When
man speaks the truth in the spirit OF
truth, his eye is as clear as the heav-
ems. When he has base ends, and
speaks falsely, his eye is muddy, and
sometimes asquint- L have heard an
experienced counsellor say.that he never
feared the effect upon jury of law
yer who does not believe in his heart
that his client ought to have a verdict.

Some Ancient Medical Fees.

Seleucus, the one of Alexander's Gen.
erals to whom the Kingdom of Syria
fell at the break up of the Empire Of
Macedonian conquest, gave to Erasis-
tratus 10000 crowns ''for discovering
the disorder of his son, Antiochus. F"

in Martial's Epigram; was repaid by
the public, in the course of a few years.
practice, the sum of 10,OOO, 900 sesterces
(fSO ,OOOl, which he had lost by law
suit. Four Roman physicians-Arun-
thus, Calpetanus, Rubrius and Albutius
for their attendance on Augustus and
his two immediate successors, enjoyed
each an annual salary of $50 900 sester-
ces, equal to $4,000 sterling.
In 1345 Edward III granted to his
apothecary, Coursus de Gungeland, a
pension of Sd a day, and Ricardus Wye,
"chirurgicus," had I'D per day for his
services. Under the same King, Will
lielmus Holmes, "chirurgicus regis" is
awarded with the permission during
his lifetime, Ito hunt, take and carry
off wild animals of all kinds in any of
the royal forests, chases, parks and
warrens." In the courts of the Kings
of Wales the physician or surgeon was
the twelfth person in rank, and his fees
seem to have been fixed by law. For a
flesh wound, not of dangerous charac-
ter, he got nothing, but such of the
wounded mans garments as the blood
had stained; but for any of the three
classes of dangerous wounds he had in
addition $50 pence and his maintenance
so long as his services might be in re-
QUESTION.
In the record of expenses of the Earl
of Cumberland, it is stated that he paid
to physician of Cambridge s1; but
this fee was evidently, as shown by
other entries, an exceptionally liberal
one, even, perhaps, for noble to pay.
In the eighteenth year of Henry VIII,
as Is mentioned in Burns History of
Westmoreland," Sir Walter Strickland
made bargain with a physician to cure
him of asthma for f2O. Stow. in the
same reign, complimenting British ply
sicians on their skill and learning,
mentions las the great grievance that
the inferior people are undone by the
exorbitance of their fees" Half a
crown, he AYERS, is, in Holland, looked
on as large fee, whereas in England

but gold, and our surgeons are still

A hen will in all probability, consume
the weight Of her eggs in grain during
the process of laying them; but her body
IS still left, and in fair condition too,
and the flesh Of fowls is always in de-
mand in markets frequented by cpl
cures. For culinary purposes there is
perhaps no egg richer than that pro-
duced by the turkey. As turkeys eggs
are seldom marketable, except for
Matching purposes, it is great boon
for the housewife when her hen tur-
keys produce alate clutch. Young hen
turkeys are generally pretty good lay
ers, seldom wanting to sit early in the
season; hut barnyard hens are the great
egg producers.

In our enjoyments we D ed to live
from day by day. The cloadsof bygone
days need not obscure the perfect sun
shine of the present. Because 1t may
storm tomorrow, we need not shut our
selves away from the brightness and
the glory of to-day. We may. and we
should, watch the barometer, and be
ready for the coming storm, while we
open all our senses to take in to the
full, the delight of the calm and beauty
that often precedes it. There is no
truth in the canting whine some we'll
meaning persons indulge in, that for
every smile we must pay with groan,
that for every prosperous breeze we
must atone with a head-wind; that
against every day Of JOY is set day of
tears.
