SWIMMING.

Skim as soon as the milk begins TO turn
sour. Do not neglect this rule, as it is
impossible to make good butter from
cream that has become old and sour
When you pour cream into the cream
jar, splash as little as possible. Stir the
cream every time you add to it, and wipe
the sides of the pot. Keep the tempera
ture at about 60 degrees, and the cream
pot in the coolest part of the house, COW
cred with a fine gauze netting strained
on hoop, not with a tight cover. II
covered too tight, fermentation is often

brOcade, opening over fronts OF satin
fabric, much i'll vogue.
Many black toilets are for evening,
made of satin or velvet, the requisite
color being given by An apron or vest of
brocade silk or satin, either in light or
brilliant colors, or with a black ground,
and the floral designs in bright, natur-
al colors. With the latter black gloves,
bouquets embroidered on the back, are
worn.
Embroidered japanese wrappers,
down lined and quilted, are an elegant
novelty. One of these is of light blue
lined with gray. The front is richly
embroidered in shaded blue silks, the
embroidery forming a point on the
basque back and reaching to its extrem-
ity. The cuffs and pockets are also cover
ed with embroidery.
Buttons are more and more beautiful.
Among recent importations are those
of tinted pearl, plain and enameled to
match all the new shades for evening
dresses. English garnet buttons, hand
some enough, as the lady customer de-
clared, to be worn as jewelry, and met
al buttons, round and concave, exquisite
ly painted by hand in various designs.
Anew fabric brought into favor
since lustrous goods have become fash
ionable, is called satin cashmere. 1t Isl
twilled fabric with all the gloss Of the
finest satin, yet has cashmere wool for
its foundation. This is so closely woven
that the twilled surface is smooth, and
has all the sheen of satin that is woven
entirely of silk. AT present it is shown
only in black and is very expensive.
The new hosiery is exquisitely pretty.
One style is Of pale blue silk, with white
clocks embroidered in blue and white;
another is of black. with instep and
front thickly powered with forget-me-
nots, and another has lozenge patterns
in two colors, divided by a narrow line
of embroidery, and meeting as though
buttoned over the instep, while for
graver tastes there are plain silk hose,
in shades to match all the fashionable
colors.

The Wife in Russia.

In the governmental Volhynia, Rus
STA, Justice appears to be administered
after a very peculiar fashion. The wife
of a well-to-do peasant addressed her
self to the court of the district with q
complaint against her husband, charg-
ing him with beating and torturing her,
and with keeping her in the cold with
out food until she had nearly died of
starvation. He had bound her to a
post in the street and requested the
passers-by to strike her, which he did
himself every time they refused to do
so. The brute had even fastened her
down to the ground, and in such a posi-
tion had heaped stones and heavy
weights upon her body until II of her
arms had been broken. When the wife's
accusation was brought before the tri-
bunal the man took fright and did not
appear to answer the charge; but neith-
er his absence or contempt of court pre-
vented the learned judge from coming
to an immediate decision. The wife
beater was found s'not guilty." on the
plea that a husband has the perfect
right to beat his wife if he SO chooses,
and it cannot be permitted to a wife to
ignore the authority of her husband.
On the following day the husband, en-
boldened through the generous acquit-
tai by his peers, turned the tables Oh

Mr.. EDITOR: Under the above cap
tion, in your issue of the 18Th of De-
cember, noticed an article from the
pen of Mr.. J. F. Wilson.
wish, by your permission, to make
a few remarks on the same subject,
and would recommend the greater
part Of Mr.. WIS article TO all who are
interested in the salvation OF the race
Our schools in some parts, as he shows,
are not Of sufficient length to give the
pupils the amount of schooling they
should have. Others, he might have
added, are taught by men who are too
lazy to stand up long enough to show
pupil how to hold book or the
proper position to stand while read
ing.
/ readily agree with Mr.. W. that
many, yes, the majority, of our di-
rectors, take the county over, are not
just what they should be. Many Of
them work for self-interest. Others
think it is just and right that the
teachers should labor the same num-
Der of hours as the farmer or mechanic
and receive the same salary.
Yet / can not agree with Mr.. w.
when he says, II know no better way
than to place the appointment of
school commissioners in the hands of
county uperintendents II is true we
may get commissioners with more
learning, but whether we would get
more justice is another question. AS

more until Mr.. w. explains why COM

awaited developments. He soon
heard the burglar enter the rear

PROF. JNO. K. PAYNE left yester-
day morning for New London, Con-
nectiGut, where he goes to take charge
of the United States Signal Station at
that place. Prof. Payne came to Kuox-
willie soon after the war and engaged
in teaching. Soon after, upon the re-
organization of the East Tennessee
University, he was elected Professor of
Mathematics in that institution, q
position that he filled with signal
ability. And while he was able and
successful as q teacher of mathematics,
he at the same time gave attention TO
everything pertaining to the welfare
OF the institution. Besides being a
first class Professor, he possessed re-
msrksble administrative ability.
When the Signal Service Bureau
established station, he was placed i'm
charge of it and has held that position
ever since, giving perfect satisfaction
at headquarters. BY constant applica-
ton and careful study, he has done
his full share in rendering that service
not only popular but useful to our
people. He and his estimable wife
leave large circle of warm friends in
knoxville, who will be glad to well
come them back again.

NKynalt Eot GULLY,

The jury in the case OF Hugh My
matt, charged with murder, for the
killing OF VIM. Demarcus, after hav-
ing the case given to them about
O'clock Friday evening, came into the
court room after its assembling Satur-
day morning, aud returned verdict of
mot guilty." whereupOn he, together
with large circle of kinsfOlk and ac-
uuaiutances, who had been deeply in
terested in the trial, experienced de-
cided feeling Of relief, a1d he was al
lowed to go.
AS will be remembered, Aarhaps, the
killing occurred in this county, near
Beaver Ridge, in May. 1877. The
two got into a difficulty about flock
Of geese. Demarcus gathered up q
rock, it seems, and Mynatt shot him
with pistol, the shot proving fatal.
Mynatt went away and was gone for
over year, when he came in and
gave himself up, and was admitted to
bail.
The case came up at The September
term, 1878, of the Criminal Court, a
mistrial was the result, and he again
gave bail. At this term the case was
taken up Monday, the first day, and
consumed most all of five days. The
grounds for the verdict are that the
killing was done in self defense, it be-
ing in proof that Demarcu5 was re-
garded by some as a dangerous man,
aud specially expert at throwing a
rock.
