We COPY from the same paper:

In the Common Pleas Court, Tuesday, the liquor
sellers indicted by the Grand Jury, for violation OF
the Ohio Laws in regard to selling Intoxicating I'D
uors, were present, and they decided not to enter
pleas when Court granted them further time. and
continued the until Thursday morning. Judge
Ball who presided spoke with much earnestness and
fully resigned to his great stating that
he was bound to enforce all laws now on the Statute
Books, that may come within his jurisdiction. The
venerable Judge. spoke as follows;
The community having acquiesced in illegal sales,
and this being the first general attempt to enforce the
law, the Court will impose opy the lightest punish
ment provided by the law, but less than fine of
$40 in for selling to drank where sold, and
the lightest punishment for keeping place. &C. But
that the place has been closed-permanenfy closed
given as provided by the Statute. But this Grand
Jury having given by these indictments, notice that
hereafter the law Is be enforced the Court will
illegal sales hereafter made impose such
will accomplish sh the end-the suppression of illegal
sales-even to the full eStent of fines and imprison-
county provide Work House, the Court, believing
idle imprisonment to be vicious all Imprisonment
for sales hereafter made will be by commitment to
the Work House-not to the JAIL

wisdom of the law it is the Statute books and it
is the duty of the Court if demand to

The Dead Editor.

Last week we mentioned the death
Of Col. R. w. Jones, editor of the
Athens Journal.
When the editorial convention met
in Columbus some years ago, our wife
and daughter went with u.s. and there
we were introduced to Col. Jones, and
his daughter Jennie, who were also in
attendance at the convention. We
think we are pretty fair judge of
men, when we see them, and we at
once came to the conclusion that Col.
Jones was true man, and the tone
of his paper confirmed US in this opin-
ion. Our friendship was warm and
lasting, and, although we never met
each other but the one time, yet we
had frequent correspondence by letter.
We differed in our political opinions,
yet, if you will examine the files of
the Athens Journal and the Jackson
Standard, you will never find an un-
kind word said about each other.
When our daughter died, August
II, 1878, Col. Jones wrote us the fol-
lowing letter:

BRoILING AND ROASTING MEAT.-Un-
questionably the broiling and roasting
meat, literally the least economical
ways of dressing 1T, present 1t IN the
most palatable and wholesome form.
Both, In broiling and roasting, the
meat should be exposed to the direct
heat of a clear, hot fire, 90 that light
crisp crust may be quickly formed and
serve TO retain The Juice of the meat;
In broiling, the crust will form close
to hot fire In about three minutes for
each side of the meat; in roasting,
with suitable appliances, the entire
surface of a Joint NAV be Drowned in
fifteen minutes; in baking meat in
hot oven, about twenty minutes will
be required. Although baking re-
sembles roasting somewhat, the re-
suits are less desirable, because the
hot fat spatters from the meat and
burns up on the interior of the oven,
producing upleasant and unwhole-
some vacors unless the oven i5 very
well ventilated. Slow baking, and
that accomplished by irregular heat,
are sources of great waste Of nutri-
ment and flavor. To avoid waste in
broiling and roasting, the fire must be
clear, hot and steady and the meat ex-
posed directly TO IS heat until its sur
face is Drowned. 1t may then be set
little away from the fire, buta regular
heat must be maintained. All drip
pings and gravy must be preserved, and
in broiling meat over the fire groov-
ed gridiron must be used to keep the
fat from falling on the Goals and blaz.
ing up against the meat. The free
circulation OF air renders both these
methods desirable, and very little
change takes place in the chemical
constituents of the flesh. Underdone
roasts and broils may be more savory
and possibly more nutritious than
those well done, but they are less di-
gestive ,and consequently less economi-
cal; for the economy of food lies
wholly in the nourishment 1t furn-
ishes the system. Even after meats
are properly cooked the chances of
waste continue through ali the phases
of unskiIiful carving, inJudic.ous
serving and disregard; for the re-
mains of joints, from which may be
made many savory ragouts, salmis,
minces, croquettes and kindred dishes.
When unskllful carving is apprehend-
ed, the cook may diminish the possl-
bilities of disaster by boning the
joints, replacing the bones with stuff
ting, and devoting them to the soup
pot.

of pure strained honey and mix into

ounces of lard; then add five well
beaten eggs; season with juice of a

APPLES never sweat, but moisture
cOndenses on them as dew upon grass.
Fruit should b. carefully gathered as
soon as ripe, when the weather Is dry
and warm; should never be handled
when wet, and must not be bruised
nor chafed in the least. The natural
waxy secretion found on fruit is pro-
tion against the effects OF moisture and
air: when the skin is deprived Of this
protection or Is broken by pressure, or
even by a puncture of pin (made in
labelling fruit at our fairs, as Is often
done), the oxygen of the air will gain
access to the juices Of the fruit, and
fermentation and decay will result.
Gathered as above described and car
ried directly to the cellar when the
fruit is warm and dry, and packed In

SUMMER PRUNING GRAPE VINEs.-It
is an injury to any plant to take away
much OF its foliage when 1t is growing
Still, it is often greater injury to
leave some special object we have in
view to have all the foliage on. For
instance, in grape growing We want a
few good strong canses TO bear fruit
next year, and no5 large number of
small and weak ones; or we need some
strong branches low down on the vine
SO we have TO take away the branches
we do not want in order to have the
vine put all The strength into the BRAN
ches we need. This is the principle
involved in The Summer pruning of
grape vines. But not to weaken the
vine by tie loss of much green foliage
we should take The earliest oppUrtuni-
ty TO take out and shorten useless
branches. BY Icing taken out early
in the season, there Is not much inju-
~ to lie vine, and there is more time
left tor those which are left to profit
by the absence Of the useless ones.
