Redesiication of the Splendid Edffi ce-
 Interesting Exercises Morning and
 Evening-AbIe Dfscourses by A. HI.
 Strong, ID. D., President of the Roches-
 ter Theological Seminary, and Rev. H.
 M Sanders, of New York City.
 Yesterday was what may be termed "gold- en'' day in the history of the Calvary Baptist church. A few months ago this then elegant church was partially destroyed by fire, but like the apocryphal ''Phoenix'' it rises from its ashes more beautiful than ever in all it's internal adornments and with truth it may be said, it is one of the most attractive Protes tant houses of worship in the city. The 1 changes made, the Identification and adorn- 1 ments have already been noted in the col 1 umns of the COURIER, and it only remains for 1 us to record the interesting exercises which ] occurred yesterday in connection with the
 rededication. In the morning the weather was cold and dreary, snow rapidly fall
 ng and it was very natural to conclude that the attendance at the morning service would
 be small, especially the female portion of the
 congregation. This was not the fact, how
 ever, as a large number of females were present and the body of the church was vel filled by both sexes, the female portion ap
 parently predominating. In the galleries wal
 seated the large Sunday school connected
 with the church, the girls occupying the en tire east side with their teachers and tn,
 boys the west side. The preachers platform
 was very elaborately decorated on either sid
 with tropical and other potted plants, whil
 in front of the desk was a splendid cross o
 white flowers, the base being formed of roses On the front of the organ gallery place a star of red and white flowers, while tn rail of the choir gallery was adorned with 1 floral harp. The stained glass windows she
 8 soft and mellow light over the congrege
 tion, and the worshipers entered tn sanctuary there seemed to be peaceful quiet resting upon the interior of tue edifce
 which shed it's influence upon those who ha l. assembled to witness the interesting exel 6 cises.
 - The dedicatory exercises opened with a F organ prelude, which was very finely reno t cred. Then followed the long metre doxol' gy, Praise God from whom all blessing
 fiow," which was sung by the choir and co1 - gregation with much spirit. Then followe s Q fervent invocation by Rev. MT. Samson }. pastor of the church. The quartette cho Il "Sweet Holy Calm" Rev.

The Values of Vegetables.

All vegetables have an effect on the
chemistry of the body, so that we can
not speak too highly of their importance
at table. We will mention few of
these matters first. and dispose of this
aspect of the subject, so as not to seem
to mix pharmacopgia with the kitchen.
Asparagus is strong diuretic, and
forms part of the cure for rheumatic pa
tients at such health resorts as AiX-lcs-
Bans: Sorrcl is cooling, and forms the
staple of that SOupe auG heroes which Il
French lady will order for herself after
a long and firing journey Carrots, as
containing quantity of sugar, are
avoided by some people, while others
complain of them as indigestible. With
regard to the latter accusation, it may
be remarked in passing, that it is the
yellow core Of the carrot that is difficult
of digestion the outer, a layer, is ten
der enough In Savoy, the peasants
have recourse to an infusion of carrots
as a specific for jaundice.
The large, sweet onion is very rich in
those alkaline elements which counter
act the poison of rheumatic govt. If
slowly stewed in weak broth. and eaten
with little Ncpaul pepper, 1t will be
found to he an admirable article of diet
for patients of siudous and sedentary
habits. The stalks OF cauillower have
the same sort Of value, only too often
the stalk OF caulIlowcr is so ill-boiled

thank YOU for proposing to them to
make part of their meal consist OF so
uninyiting an article, Turnips, in the
| same way. are often thought TO be i'm
digestible, and better suited for cows
and sheep than for delicate people; but
here The fault lies with the cook us
much as with the root. The cook boils
the turnip badly, and then pours some
butter over il, and the eater of such n
dish il sure to be the worse for it. Try
Il better way. Half boil your turnip,
and cut it in slices like half-crowns. -
Butter pie dish, put in the slices, moist
en- with little milk and weak broth, dust
once with bread-crumbs and pepper and
salt, and bake in the oven till it gains "a
bright golden brown. This dish, which

ps, is quite unsuited TO cows, and ought
to be popular What shall besaid about
our leltuces? The plant has slight mar
cotic action, OF which a French old wo-
man, like II French doctor, well knows
the value, and when properly cooked it
is really very easy of digestion. But in
our country, though lettuccs are duly
grown in every garden, you often hear
the remark, II can, eat salad" and
as few cooks know how to use the vege-
table which has been refused in its raw
state, the lcttuccs are all wasted, and
so is the ground in which they were
grown. From Mrs. RccceS Book on
