PENSION THEM ALL.

OF all the money. getting schemes,
The most attractive this Is,
To ralRe voluntary fund
To pension our Ulysses.
'Twere hard, indeed, TO do too much
For one who saved his party;
And 30 the winning sides response
Should be direct and hearty.
The man who scarcely spoke before,
After the lrade at Mentor
On many stumps displayed the volco
And action OF stentor.
No doubt needs large supply
or cash to tide him over,
Until The Third TERMS hour shall coma.
And pasture him In clover.
ButwhIle Ulysses salts away
The funds bis friends may give, he
Must not forget his cronles, who
Ought each to have his dlvvy,
There's Babcock, who has we'll deserved
The favor Of the nation,
And injured Belknap, who should now
Be held In veneratlon.
Boss Shepherd should he pensioned OE,
While waiting for promotion.
And Robertson should have yacht,
To sail upon the ocean.

A QUEER ROMAN CUSTOM

A QUEER ROMAN CUSTOM
There is another custom which is OBJ
served by all true Romans, namely,
the eating Of large beans on the
second Of November. The origin
of this custom is not known; but it
is thought that il olden times the
dead were honored in May instead
of November, and that, as beans
were then in season, they formed
part Of the feast. Now, however,
dried beans have to be eaten, and
as everyone does not like that food,
the church allows imitation beans.
These are made of sugar and pastry,
made up in the shape of and called
dead mems bones. The very name
is sufficient to deter many from
partaking Of this pastry, though it
is said to be delicious, but the sight
of human bone, even when being
eaten by the prettiest of mouths, is
not pleasant. The custom of plac-
ing these death bones on dining
tables had the same origin as that
of introducing skeletons at festivals
to remind the guests that all were
mortal and that it was best to enjoy
life whilst they could.-The Hour.

Butter for Long Keeping.

Tn reply to a correspondents
query as to the process Of making
and packing granulated butter in
barrels of brine, the New York
Tribune has the following:
The mode of granulating butter
is to churn the cream IN the usual
way till just before it is ready to
nather-till the butter will separate
from the buttermilk, and rise to the
top like cream, which it will al
ways do before gathering. At this
stage the contents of the churn are
cooled down to fifty six degrees or
ffty-four degrees by introducing
cold water Or brine, and the work
finished by churning slowly. The
butter will then form into fine pei
let's or granules, instead of into one
solid lump or q few large Jumps.
The butter thus granulated is sep
arated from the buttermilk in any
convenient way, and washed either
in cold water or brine till the water
will run off clear, two washings are
generally enough. A tight cask of
the size desired, and suitable for
holding butter, is prepared before
hand, and filed partly full of brine
as strong as it can be made from
pure salt. Into this butter is put
us soon as washed, without any
working OF sailing. If enough is
not made in one churning, the but.
ter must be kept down under the
brine till the cask is filled and then
headed up tight. Through hole
in the head any little vacancy that
may exist must be filled perfectly
with brine, and the hole plugged
1t is then ready for transportation
or long keeping. When wanted
for use it may be taken from the
cask and pressed into any solid
form desired, and the brine adher.
ing to it will season it about as most
people desire it. IF wanted fresh
it may be washed in cold water
when it will be as fresh and rosy as
when it came out of the churn. The
salt for the brine must be of the
purest kind, or the butter will be
bleached from living in it.
