A Card from LO.Priee.


Mr.. ED1TOR:-H Having noticed a piece
in the News of May lst, about the colored
people of Penn Up. of which I am one,
and don't feel as one that is guilty, I take
this opportunity to answer it. You will
oblige by publishing the following:
We, as voters (colored) of Paint TIP. are
being walked up to sense of our own
duty. We are and profess to be Republi-
cans, but neUsr have, nor neUsr shall, -sus-
tain corrupt candidate offered BY either
party. We want men of principle and
true patriotism to fill our offices, and if
such men are Offered we will vote for
them, let them be of whatever politics they
may be. Now, would a true, honest
hearted Republican ask more Of as?
We have not, nor ,0iH not go back on
the Republican party, but il they offer
men that are enemies to the cOlOrsd Re-
publicans, dOyou think we should sustain
our enemies, even if they are of the same
party? would just say to such men, if
you intend to be candidates, keep your
mouths shut if you don't like the colored
people, for they are watching you. Not
only this, try to live as you should live,
respect every body, let them be Of what
ever color they may be. God made us al.
Respect the Colored man. He has
made great Improvement since imported
from his native country, Africa, and ex-
changed savage for civilized life.
Though shabby sheep are among us, as is
the case with all nations, yet some of US
are trying to live a life which will be
an honor to our name when we are gone.
Very truly yours,
rnrrAr q rlnrrLrr

Innumerable are the ways of prepar-
ing the oysters for the table. The skill
or ignorance OF a h~ousekeeper may be
estimated by the success or failure of
her attempts to put oysters on her
table in good style. The way in which
some people execute stewed oysters is
simply atrocious. They put the oysters
into a kettle of water and boil them
ever so long, until the flavor is gone
from them and they look like old rags.
Not so with the stewed oysters we
want to eat. The oyster requires but
little time in the boiling hot fluid in
which he is stewed. The juice must be
first put on the fire, with the seasoning
required for both itself and the oysters
and q little flour or cracker dust to
thicken it slightly and prevent it from
being too soupish in its consistency.
When the liquid boils briskly it is time
to throw the oysters in and stir them
gently. Watch them closely. The
moment their whiskers begin to curl
put in a little fresh milk or cream and
continue the influence of the heat for
half a minute. Now your oysters are
stewed and ifyou have seasoned them
properly they are at for kings.
The fried oysters of the eating
houses is too often a greasy and batter
iacketted a~bomination.a Why the idea
ever entered into the heads of the cooks
to fabricate the envelope of tough bat
ter and corn meal chicken feed, in
which they smother each oyster, is a
mystery. To cover II respectable oys-
ter with this and then drop him into a
lardy pan and let him gradually sizzle
over a slow fire is wicked.
Oysters to be fried ought to be gently
pressed in a clean towel till almost
dry, then immersed in beaten egg, then
dipped in cracker crumbs, then placed
in a pan containing exactly the right
amount of very hot lard or butter, or n
mixture Of both. This pan should he
set over a very lively fire as near the
Goals as possible. Thus to fry oysters
is the work of but a few moments. If
properly fried the oyster is not greasy.
As in stewing,, so in frying, attention
to time is important. Fry the oyster
too brown and you spoil him.
When we want a dish of Extreme
delicacy we ask for some skilfully
broiled oysters. The reason why we
| seldom see oysters broiled.is TINT very
