what Are R1ches.


William l.. Marcy, the able Secre.
tary Of State under President Pierce,
used to enjoy giving ths following for.
chile illustration of what constitutes
riches
"To be rich" said Mr.. Marcy, re
quires only satisfactory condition OF
the mind. One man may DO rich with
a hundred dollars, while another, in
the possession of millions. may think
himself poor and As the necessities OF
life are enjoyed by each, 1t is evident
the man who is the best satisfied
with his possessions is the richer. "
To illustrate this idea, Mr.. Marcy re-
lated the following anecdote
While l was Governor Of the State
Of New York, said he, was called
upon one morning at my office by a
rough specimen of backwoodsman,
who stalked in and began conversation
by inquiring If this was Mr..
Marcy 9"
81 replied that was my name.
bill Marcy, said he. | nodded as
sent.
Used to live in Southport didn't
ye 2"
~ answered in the affirmative, and
began to feel little curious to know
who my visitor was, and what he was
driving at.
"That's what told en-, cried the
back woodsman, bringing his hand
down on his thigh with tremendous
forcs told EN- you was the same
old Bill Marcy who used to live in
Southport, but they wouldn't believe
it, and promised the next time came
to Albany to come and see you and ind
out for sartin. Why, you know me,
don't you, Bill ,?
81 didn't exactly like to ignore his
acquaintance altogether, but for the
life of me | couldn't reoOllect ever hav.
ing seen him before and so ] replied
that he had q familiar countenance,
but that was unable to call him by
name.
"' Ny name is Jack Smith, answer
cd the back woodsman, 'and we used
to 20 to school together thirty years
ago, In the little red school house in
| old Southport. Well, times has chang
cd since then and you have be-
come great man, and got rich, l sup
pose
81 shook my head, and was going to
oontradict that impression, when he
broke in:
'Oh yes you are know you are
rich no use denying it, You were
Comptroller for-for long time and
the next we heard of you, you were
Governor You II ust have made heap
Of money, and am glad of it glad to
see you getting along so smart. You
was always smart lad at school,
and l knew you would come to some
thing
" thanked him for his good wishes
and opinion, but told him that political
life did not pay 30 well as he imagined.
[ SUPPOSE said |, fortune has
smiled upon you since you left South
port.
"'Oh, yes, said he, hain't got
nothing to complain of. You see, short
ly after you left Southport our whole
family moved up into Vermont and pu,
right into the woods, and reckon our
family cut down more trees and cleared
more land than any other family in
the whole State.
"And so you have made a good
thing of it. How much do you consider
yourself worth q l asked, feeling a
little curious to know what he consid'
cred fortune, as he seemed TO be &c
we'll satisfied with his.
Well, he replied, / don't know
exactly how much l am worth. but !!
think'-straightening himself up If all
my debts were pa id l would be worth
three hundred dollars clean cash.
And he was ,.ch, for he was salts
fed"

DYSPEPSIA.

Sedentary habits, mental worry, nervous
excitement, excess or imprudencc in eat
Inc or drinking, and various other causes
induce Constipation followed by general
arrangement of the liver, kidneys, and
stomach, in which the disorder of each
organ increases the intirmity of the others.
The immediate results are Loss of Ape
tite, Nausea, Foul Breath. Heartburn, Flat
ulenre, Dizziness. Sick Headaches, failure
Of physical and mental vigor,. distressing
,enSc of weight and tulmcss in the stomach
and increased CostiycncSS. all of which are
known under one head as Dyspepsia.

HOUSEHOLD NOTES.

RYE MUsH.-This is made IN the same
manner as Graham mush; it is not so
palatable as the other mushes.
PUMPKIN JOHNNY CAKE.-Take pump
kin stewed until 1t is very dry and sweet.
and stir corn meal into it until the mass
becomes rather stiff dough; spread it on
baking pan on which dry meal has been
sifted, and bake in a hot oven.
RHUBARB ToAsT.-PeeI and cut the
stalks in pieces, put them in a stew-pan.
add little water, some stoned dates and
few English currants well picked and
washed; let them all cook until done and
then pour them over the toasted bread.
GRAHAM MUsH.-This is made of Ora
ham flour wheat meal and hot water. in
the same manner as oatmeal mush; but
requires cooking only about twenty min
utes; care is required in stirring it not to
have it lumpy. Stoned dates make the
best seasoning.
To MAKE Potato BREAD.-Wash and
peel the potatoes; boil them in as little
water as will cover them; mash them
through a cOlander with the water i'm
which they were boiled; heat the whole
to the boiling point; mix in wheat-meal
until sufficiently stiff to knead; cut into
small cakes and bake in hot oven. The
flavor usually preferred is secured by
using three parts of meal to one of pota-
toes.
BEEFsTEAK PIE.-Ingredients: For
large pie 3 pounds, for a small one IL to
pounds beefsteak; seasoning to taste Of
salt, cayenne and black pepper; suitable
dripping or suet crust; water. Mode:
Have the steaks cut from a rump that has
hung few days, that they may be ten
der, and be particular that every portion
is perfectly sweet. Cut the steaks into
pieces about three inches long and two
wide, allowing a small piece of fat to each
piece Of lean, and arrange the meat in
layers in pie dish. Between each LAYER
sprinkle a seasoning Of salt, pepper and,
where liked. Il few grains of cayenne. Fill
the dish sufficiently with meat to support
the crIst, to give it a nice raised appear
auce when baked. Pour in sufficient
water to half fill the dish and border it
with paste; brush it over with little
water and put on the cover, slightly press
down the edges with the thumb and trim
the paste off close to the dish. Make
hole in the top of the crust and bake in
