To SwEETEN BUTTER.-An exchange says:
To three pounds of butter add % drachms
carbonate of soda. For making fresh but
ter, the soda is to be added after all the
milk is washed out and it is ready for
making up. The unpleasant smell is pro-
duced by an acid, which the soda destroys,
and disperses at the same time the disa-
greeable flavor. Carbonate of soda pro-
duces the same results when added to drip
ping, lard, &c.

A gentleman who employs great num-
ber of hands in q mandatory in the west
of England, in order to encourage his work
people in due attendance at church on
fast day, told them that if they went to
church they would receive their wages on
that day, in the same manner as if they
had been at work. Upon which deputa-
ton was appointed to acquaint their en-
ployer that, "if he would pay them for OUer
hours, they would attend likewise at the
Methodist chapel in the EVENING""

A FRUITFUL Cause.-The great curse of
working men in this country and in Great
Britain is their uncomfortable appetite for
drink. The greater part of their poverty
in ordinary times comes from indulgence
in this habit. If they would only save
what they spend for liquor, they would not
have such cause to complain of hard times.

Sixty-Sixth Anniversary of Delaware
Bible Society.

The Bible Society of Delaware held its sxty-sixth
annual meeting in the Presbyterian Church at New
Castle last Thursday.
In the absence of the President, Hon. D. NJ Bates,
the meeting organized by placing Dr. L. P. Bush, of
Wilmington, Vice President of the society, in the
chair Rev. T. F. Plummer, the Secretary, occupying
his position
The report of the Board of Managers by DR.. Marks.
stated that no work of special magnitude had been
accomplished during last year, the year previous
having been one of general distribution.
The report of the Religious Book and Tract Repos-
tory, No. COZ Market street. Wilmington. showed the
number of Bibles, Testaments &c, sold to be 2S2;
given away, %; volumes on hand So The report
was adopted.
An interesting discussion took place on the condi-
ton of the different Bible societies of the State and
their manner of working. There now five socie-
ties at work in Delaware, viz: The Bible Society OF
Delaware, the Wilmington Female, the New Castle
Eemale and the Kent and Sussex county societies.
The Sussex comfy society works with the volunteer
system. while the Delaware and Kent county socie-
ties have adopted the paid system of distributing the
Bible, l. c. employing man as a colporteur to dis
tribute the books All these societies independent
of each other and auxiliary to the American BIZ
BILE Society, whose headquarters are at New York,
and all seem to be in very active and fourishing
condition. 1t was deemed proper to maintain fra
ternal feeling between the different workers in the
single cause of distributing the Good Book, and to
this end DIR. Caldwell moved that delegates be ap-
pointed to attend the annual meetings Of the Kent
and Sussex county societies. The motion prevailed
and the chair appointed delegates to Kent, Dr. j. H
Caldwell and Hon. D. NJ Bates; to Sussex, DR.. J. IL
Nixon and DIR. w. J. Stevenson.

The celebrated DIR. Jenner, who introdu-
duced vaccination, was a man of genial
wit, and the following lines, addressed to a
lady upon the recovery of her daughter,
and sent with pair of ducks, affords a
fair specimen of his facetious vein:
"Pve despatched, my dear madam, this scrap
of a letter,
To say that Miss - is very much better;
A regular doctor no longer she lacks,
And therefore I've sent her a couple of
Quacks."

Louisiana needs more of this
kind of farming. Our State
needs numerous agricultural
journals, and Il large population
who will read and profit by
such journals. Our farmers
should take more pride in small

should organize more agricultu-
raj societies. and have more lee

State should be covered with
magnificent farms. Ii our State
were full OF progressive farmers,
their fields, and meadows and
pastures, orchards, gardens, and
vineyards, groves and pleasant
places, ffocks and herds, and

a FAEMER ought TO be, not
only an accomplished tiller OF
the soil, but also All exr'llcnt
mechanic, - fair harness maker,
and mendcr of shoes, a tolera
bic carpenter, n pretty good
blacksmith or macilinist, and
alsoa wide awake thorougliudge
and breetler'of stock, knowing
how, and caring Tor their all
ments--not only horses and cat
tie hut sheep, hogs, mnl. 3, ponl-
try, or anything that money can
be made ont Of. With all this
he should lie civil engineer,
acquainted with levels and by
draulics, and repairs of pumps,
and if in addition TO these re-
quirements, he understands lay
ing stone and brick, and put
ting on plsstering, as well as mix
ing and applying paints, he
will find plenty to do, TO say
nothing OF what he ought to
know abont grain and milling
it. His wife, and in fact good
housewives generally. must not
only understand housekeeping,
but she must be a good cook,
baker andc confe.ioner, know
how to make and fit garments
OF all sorts for both sexes, and
not only be a tailoress, but mil
liner and mantua maker also.
She must understand canning
fruit and vegetables, and max
ing both pickles and preserves.
With these, the experience OF
few years observation as a moth
er ought to max her something
more than an ordinary physician.
Most ailments pertaining both
TO human beings and brutes are
but trifiing at first, and if taken
in time. are easily cured. 1t is
only by neglect that they be-
come seriaas.
