is well wstered with pure running streams,
the climate is mild and healthful. and the

FRENCH DISHES.
Some Of the Wonderful Dainfies Beloved Of
the Bsorgeoisie Of farfs.

oOms 81 he nonQSTI1 Odtnftes beloved o(
the Bsorgeoisie Of Parfs.
From the London Truth.
There are, of course, some notable
exceptions to the French practice Of
separsting the meat from the tegets-
bles. Fried potatoes are recognized as
the natural adjunct to teefste.ks, and
turnips are eaten with ducks to the
great content of the diner Peas are
too good to be thrown away or this burd,
But the mos: comforting of French
dishes at this season is Perdrir aus
chour. 1t consists of partridges stewed
with cabbage and served up with san
ssges and thin slices OF bacon. Pig.
cons are also served in this fashion.
Another cheering mess 90 q cold au-
tumn day is fapfn en- gi6elotte. You
take a rabbit aud a moderate sized eel.
Having cut them up, you add mush-
rooms and small onions and stir the
whole till we'll mixed on this a little
light white wine is poured there should
not be more than sherry glass. Next
pour about double the quantity of bou-
illon, and season with salt, pepper,
thyme and parsley. You now withdraw
the pieces Of eel and the onions and
set the mixture TO stew over q brisk
fire. When the sauce Is diminished by
about two-thirds you throw in the eel
and onions, and now stew over a gentle
fire. The result will bear an appllca-
tion of the Spanish proverb:
He who let's the Puchero pass
Must be either in love, or asleep, or an ass.
To which may be added, I" or dyspep-
tic" The dish is for persons of ro-
bust digestion. 1t is great favorite
with the bourgeois classes IN France.
A worthy parisian grocer once took his
bride for the honey day trhey are afraid
to make it a month in France, to st
Cloud and treated her to a nice little
dinner at a popular restaurant. A gio-
elotte was the crown and glory Of the
entertainment and in the ecstacy of
their delight the happy pair cut their
initials on one Of the bones, with what
vague dream of poetry one bardI y real
ises-possibly with the genial wish that
the very dog who should crunch it
might know Of their joy. twenty-five
years of bliss followed, when the pair
&c celebrate their silver wed
ding by another trip to st. Cloud and a
second dinner a, the Identical restau-
rant. Needless to say, gibolette was
ordered, and that it was pronounced de-
icious while the lady was only too
pleased at discovering that one of the
bones, apparently none the worse for
wear, was still doing duty after the
apse of quarter Of century. Time
had not obliterated her initials so loving
y ihterlaced with her husbands. There
a much to be got out of bone.

COUNTRY GIRLS.

1.-The farmers daughters are soon TO be

"A glorious race of women which no other
land can show. 1 seek not TO fatter them
Tor before they can become this. they will
have 10 make sn earnest effort of one or
two things. There are some who deprecate
their condition, and some who have false
pride in if, because they demand more con-
sideration than they merit. want of in-
.eiligence upon all the subjects of the day
and of a refined education. is no more ex-
cusabls in q country than IN a town-bred
girl, in these days of many books aud news
pape-s.
"Msny girls are discouraged because they
cannot be sent away from home to boarding
schools; but n,er of superior minds and
knowledge of the world would rather have
for wives women well and properly educa-
ted at home. And this education can be
had wherever the de.ire is mol wanting. A
taste for reading does wonders; and an
earnest thirst after knowledge IS almost GER
tain TO sttsin sweet draught from the
sPierian spring.

THIS is the season for gun accidents. The
two following have been taken from the
Franklin Repository OF last week:
Two sons of George Deneen, of Union
township, Fulton county, started to take a
loaded gun from the house to their father,
who was in the woods, for the purpose oil
shooting pheasant. While on the road
the elder of the two, who WIS carrying the
gun, told his brother he was going to shoot
him. The little fellow, who is but twelve
years of age, ran from him, when the elder
brother fired the whole load of shot into his
BODY, dangerously wounding him. He is
still living in a precsrious situation. Some
attribute the affair TO vIciOusness on the
mart of the lad, while others claim 1t was an
accident.
We regret to learn that Mr.. Jeremiah
Row, of Rouzeryille, met with a serious ac-
cident by shooting, on Friday last he hAd
gone into corn-feld with gun and aos
rabbit hunting. The dog started up rso-
hit which it caught and killed. Mr.. T. In
stooping down to pick up the rabbit his gun
b.inr cooked, discharged it, the load enter
;ng npd.r his left arm and lodging in the
MINER mart of the shoulder. 1t appears an
artery was cut, and considerable diffcui'y
WAS experiencsd in preventing death from
hla.ding. But we learn Drs. Brown anu
Frantz. who were in the vicinity at the tinle
the accident occurred, finally srcceeaeo IN
sisyins its flow, and he was removed 10 n
home on a stretcher. Drs. Strickier anu
Anderson arriving in the meantime tne sn''
xe,. extracted BY the former. Inc Sunef
