Sargent s. PrenCiss.

In the "reminiscences Of "An Old
Fogy," pablished in the Louisville Cour.
Ter Journal, the following description is
given of Sargent S. Prentiss: "Mr.
Prentiss was rather below than above
the medium size, and lame in his right
leg from infancy. His chest, neck and
shoulders were uncommonly full, erect
and we'll developed. His features, taken
together, were distinguished for manly
beauty, and marked by an expression Of
qnmistakable kindness and benevolence.
His convivial habits were we'll known to
his contemporaries, but they never
caused him to neglect any importan bus
mess he had on hand. He was always
himself at the bar or on the stump. No
man was ever more beloved by his init
mate friends, and most worthy was he
Of their affection. No pen can describe
the charms of his conversation in mo.
ments Of relaxation and social inter.
course. The effect Of his eloQuence still
lives in the memory of those who en-
ioyed the rare happiness Of hearing
him. = B

Domestic Recipes.

BEETs AND CARRoTs.-When small beets
are boiled and cut in slices and served
in saucers at dinner, great addition
may be made by slicing some boiled car
rots with them. Do not cook the carrots
and beets together, but in separate ket.
ties. Served together each gains and
neither loses. This is novel way of
serving them; try it.
RABB1rs.-Rabbits, which are in the
best conditions in midwinter, may be
fricasseed like chicken. in white or brown
sauce. To make pie. first stew till ten
der and make like chicken pie. To
roast, stutfwith dressing made of bread
crumbs, chopped salt pork, thyme,
onion, pepper and salt; sew up; rub
over with little butter or pin on it a
few slices of pork, add little water in
the pan and basic often. Serve with
mashed potatoes and current jelly.
CHOCOLATE CAKE.-Iake two cups of
sugar, one cup o. sweet milk, half u cup
of butter, two and one-half cups of flour,
two eggs and three teaspoonfuls of ball.
ing powder. Dissolve one third-cake of
chocolate, mix with one-half cup of the
cake, then marble through the whole.
Lady Fingers made after this recipe
are very nice for tea; they should be
eaten while fresh. Rub half a pound of
butter into pound Of flour: to this add
half pound Of sugar, the grated rind of
one large lemon, and lastly, thee eggs,
the whites and Jokes beaten separately.
and the whites stirred in after all the
other ingredients are well mixed to-
gether. This dough. if properly made,
will be stiff enough to make rolls about
the size OF lady's finger; it will spread
when in the oven so that it will be of
the right size and shape. If you wish
them to be specially inviting dip them
in chocolate icing after they are baked.
Take pains to see that the icing is so
hard that it will not run, and set the
cakes on plaster in cool room until
the icing is firm.

GRANDAlOrHER.s KITCHEN

Silence reigned In the darkness,
But out from the fireplace old.
Up to the darkening ralters,
There shot q CLEAN of gold.
Lighting the face of the dial
On the ancient family clock,
Showing the chairs aud tables
Ofgood old Puritan stock.
The tins on the dresser shining,
The sand on the whitened floor,
And grandfather's flint-lock musket,
= Above the high-latched door.
The spinning-wheel in the corner,
The silhouettes on the wall,
And shining upon the dresser,
Decanters straight and tall.
The shadows danced and deepened,
The corners filled with gloom
The sparks died out on the hearthston,
And darkness filled the room.

How Women OF Good Sense Dress
Against Cold.

Zero weather has compelled uc to look
after our underclotking. We have thrust
ourselves into two or three sets of fam
nels at once, like man beating a hotel
by walking out with his whole wardrobe
on his back. It is easier this winter,
however, to keep warm than it used to
be. for it is fashionable to wear thick
underclothes. Many objected at first to
anything except dainty muslins under
meath their outer carmen 8, but the use
Of coiored silks leads the way to hannels
next the skin, and then to buckskin
to small, close shirts and snug drawers,
Portable. Those with the small
perforations are most wholesome.
The outside, with or without sleeves. has
long been used under cloaks or dress
waists, and may be had with flannel
lining. A moro convenient garment of
buckskin is al under 'kerchief,' such as
the flannel ones worn to protect the
chest and shoulder blades This extends
in a point to the waist before and be-
hind, and does not till up the waist Of
the dress, as the vests. do that extend
all the around the waist. The buckskin
skirt SO long used by the English women
were introduced here last winter, to be
worn over q flannel skirt and under
other clothing, in order to keep them
clean. These are light and greater
warmth than is produced by heavier
wool skirts and may BE- had with scarlet
flannel for lining or for the outside az
wearer perfers. COlored flannel pet
ticott's are used for winter in varied
weights according as the wearer requires
more or less heat beginning with the
light opera flannel Of pale blue,
rose or scarlet, made with three or four
tucks neatly feather-stiched, and an edg-
ing of embroidery, up to the warm Sha-
ker flannel skirts, for which only a sir
gle breadth of flannel is needed, as it
measures Two and half yards in width !;
these come in bright scarlet, and are
pretty when trimmed with the crocheted
lace ofscarlet zephyr wool. Anew flan-
mel, in which eider-down is said to be
woven, is used this winter, 1t is made
in plain skirts of white, red, or light
blue. Hand-knitted skirts are to be had
III nice qualities and pretty waved and
shell patterns. A rutf1e of white flannel
embroidered and scalloped in colors, or
else t1o narrow flounces similarly trim
med, are the popular trimmings for the
white flannel petticoats. A deep yoke of
the flannel double is preferred to a
wajstDanG for flannel skirts, as this fits
more neatly.

Some Of the mulatto and quadroon

Der between twenty five and thirty years
ago scene which has often seemed to
me fit subject for great painter of fe-
male beauty, as Sir Josh 10 Reynolds. In
q family OF friends whom was then Wis
iting there was young lady who was
very often called the most beautiful
woman Of the STATE in which she lived.
One evening there was an aristocratic
wedding. and she was to he bridesmaid.
The carriage was waiting for herself and
her maid, who was to 60 with her young
mistress and add some touches to her
toilet, when the 0 Id father of the young
lady sent request that she would come
and show herself to him before going,
she was very fair, blue-eyed blon de,
one of the most beautifully formed
women l ever saw, with an exquisite air
of high.bred grace, and lovely express
sion Of gracious womanhood in her face.
She were foamy dress of white silk and
lace. Her servant, a mulatto girl of the
same age, entered the room with her.
The girl had soft dreamy, dark eyes,
delicate features, and a somewhat path
etc expression of face. She wore some
bright plaid stuff and q white apron, and
as she stood-near the door she held ex-
tended the crimson wrap of her young
mistress, ready to envelop her. never
saw two women such foil to each other.
There was tender friendship between
the two women. An early battle of the
civil war made the beautiful blonde a
widow. and she had the constant sym
pathy and service of the mulatto, both as
slave and free.
