Summer Soups.


A most delicious pea soup is made as
follows: Put half pound of butter
into q soup.kettle, over the fire, and
add to it a quart of green peas. Shake
them round constantly for fifteen min
utes to prevent their browning. Then
take out half the peas, and set aside,
then pour in two quarts of vegetable
stock, or some prefer boiling water.
Cut fine about a pint of spinach, half
dozen green onions, little mint if
agreeable, and head of celery. Set
the kettle where this will stew slowly
two hours, till all the materials are re-
:duced to jelly. then add the pint of
peas reserved, three tablespoonfuls of
sweet butter rolled in flour. two tea
spoonfuls Of salt and one of black pep
per. Let it just boil up, then pour into
a hot soup tureen, and serve immedi-
ately.
Julienne Potage-or soup-or soup
for June and July, from which it takes
its name because it should have good
proportion of all summer vegetables, is
made as follows: H..
Take equal parts of carrots, turnips,
celery, onions, cabbage, lettuce, leek-
in all three quarters Of a pound-4with
little sorrel and chervil. Cut the red
part of the carrots in long strips, then
across like dice, cut the turnips and
celery in the same manner, fry them in
two ounces of butter to delicate
brown. (When frying vegetables for
soups do it in long-handled stew-pan,
so that they can be easily shaken to
keep from scorch;ng.) When hot add
to them two leeks cut in small pieces,
the sorrel, and little chervil, with a
dessertspoonful of sugar. When the
vegetable, or julienne, is nearly tender
pour in two quarts of good clear stock,
turn all into the soup-digester, or kettle
which should be well-heated, then boil
one hour, when it should be set one side
to simmer and allow the scum to rise.
which must be carefully taken off.
While this is doing prepare separately
two spoonfuls of green peas, and the
same of asparagus heads. Put them
into the soup tureen, we'll heated, and
when the soup is done pour over them
and serve. II preferred, the peas and
asparagus can be omitted.
Or, cut up, after being well cleaned,
three carrots, three turnips, two large
sticks of celery, three onions, three
leeks; fry ten minutes in two ounces of
sweet butter over slow fire, shaking
the pan constantly to prevent scorch-
ing. Then pour them into the hot soup
digester, in which are three quarts of
strong stock, and simmer half an hour.
Then cut up two heads of lettuce, a leaf
or two Of sorrel and of chervil, with q
cup of French beans cut in dice, add q
tablespoonful of salt, half teaspoonful
cayenne and half tablespoonful of sugar.
Let it all simmer gently till the veg
etables are very tender. Half an hour
should be long enough. Serve with
bread fried in small dice-shaped bits.
A household root-cutter or rasp is q
great convenience for many kinds of
cooking, but especially for making juli-
enne soup, as it Is important that the
vegetables for this Soup should be
quickly cut. and; neatly, or the soup will
suffer Ii taste as we'll Is looks, and this
root-cutter will cut them all quickly and

In Granada reigued Mohammcd:

But the rightful King. Prince Yousuf,
Pined In long captivity;
Yousuf, brother to Mohammed:
Him the King had seized. and sent
Prisoner to a Moorish castle,
Where ten years his life was spent.
III and feeble now. the usurper
Felt his death was fastening on,
And would fain be1ucath MS Kingdom
And his title to his son.
Calling then trlsty servant,
He to him letter gave:
" Take my fieetcst horse, and hasten,
Ii my life you wish to save.
= HE thee to the brave Alcayde
Of my castle by the sea:
To his hands give thou this letter.
And his physician bring to me-"
Then in haste the servant mounted,
Aud for many u league he rode,
Till he reached the coast and castle
Where the captive Prince abode.
There sat Yousuf and the Alcayde
In the castle, playing chess.
What is this?" the keeper muttered:
"SOme bad tidings, as guess"
Pale he grew, and sat and trembled,
As his eyes the letter scanned;

When this ugly message came"
All amazed, the poor Alcayde
PLAYED his knights and bishops wrong,
And the Prince his moves corrected:
So in silence sat they long.
In his mind Prince Yousuf pondered:
Why this hasty message send,
If my kind and thoughtful brother
We're not fastening to his end?
"Surcly. surely. he is dying,
And if must lose my head,
My young nephew will succeed him
Ger Granada in my stead.
" Though my keeper still is friendly,
l must gain some hours delay.
He is poor: the King may bride him;
He may change ere close OF day..
Then, aloud: "Come, good Alcayde,
One more game before die:
And be sure you make no blunders.
l may beat you yet: I'll try"
In his lonely life the keeper
Dearly loved his game of chess;
Therefore needs he little urging,
Though sad thoughts his soul OpprCsS.
For an hour or two they battlcd,
And the Alcayde gained amain,
For the Prince. with restless glances,
Gazcd beyond the windOw-pane.
Still the chess-board lay between them,
And the Alcayde played his best;
Took no note of gliding hours
Till the sunset fired the west.
Yet he gained not. for Prince Yousuf
With a sudden check mate sprang,
Unforeseen; and that same moment,

Through the western windows gazing
Far across the dusty plain,
Yousuf saw the flash of lances,
And the bugle rang again;
And two knights appeared advancing,
Like two eagles on the wing.
Allah Akbar! From Granada
Faces flushed with joy they bring.
The King is dead! Long live King Yousuf
Long-lost lord-our rightful King!

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.


Editor .Sdr:-The petition to Congress against
the passage Of the bill authorizing the sale OF
the ''CorcOran Square" corner 9TH street north
west, between . and p for public school par
poses, contains the following mistakes:
1. That Mr.. Corcoran 'made a virtual dona-
ton OF the ground for the specific purposes of a
Market" That gentleman received, as consid-
Grafton, 100000 District bond, bearing in
terest and this bond has to be paid by the Dis
trict. That Mr. c. presented the bond to the
Art Gallery does not relieve the District from its
payment. There was no donation.
2. 1t is not true that 1.-The site was by the
terms of its purchase. dedicated to market p,ir-
poses and the public faith was solemnly
pledged" &c. Mr.. Corcoran'S deed is of record:
there is not one syllable in it about the purpose
1t is an ordinary deed in fee, without any re-
str1ction. The solemn pledge exists nowhere
except In the imagination OF the gentlemen who
drew the petition.
3, 1t is not true that real estate near by has
been assessed for taxation at a greatly en-
HANGED price" on account of the intention to
build a market there, or to create a fund to
build one. 1t has been assessed on the same
principle with other real estate, at its supposed
value.
T. 1t is not true that s.the location is the mos,
eligible and convenient that can be roundp not
being equal in any respect to a location two
squares farther west and about as many farther
north. To citizens east and southeast of it, it
is more convenient to go to the better market on
street; to citizens north Of it. 1t is quite as
cheap to take the horse cars to the Washington
market. A market at Boundary street, on It'll
