THE EDITOR IN TEouI1E-The
weeks publication of the TINES had
gone to the Office last "Wednesday
morning and the editor sat laziiy ar
ranging the programme Of the next
weeks work, when suddenly there
came loud tramping on the office
steps. In walked procession ofmost
Juvenile young gentlemen and arayec
themselves before the editors table.
The MANNING TINES was in the hands
of the leader, who pointed to para
graph headed Base Ball. and with
wild vehemence demanded therespon-
sible party. Our experience in the
past has made US unusually alive to
the meaning of such visits. With
blanched cheeks, and to the cadence
of chattering teeth, we meelly inQuir-
what was wrong? "Why sir, we have
been meanly slandered, we, the Man
ming club, beat that game; and be-
sides sir, you have made fun of ou
playing. We did not start to play till
8 o'clock and stopped at !, sir We
appreciated the situation. Something
had to be done, and that quickly. Our
audience we're growing madder every
moment and their demonstrations Of
violence were getting more and more
uncomfortable for the editor. Gen
tlemen, we commenced, but our voice
sized like water falling in caldron
Of lead-'stop sir, and tell US who
wrote that piece Desperate and
and reckless, we looked around for
some means of escape, and seeing the
printers stool vacant, happy idea
struck US Turning to the wrathful
ballers with an ali Of injured inno-
cence, we declared that the printer,
jnstigated by old Nick, had, unknow-
ingly to US, perpetrated the foul deed.
Where is he, sir?'' He is out Of the
office, anywhere, on the street. They
left IN search of the printer, whose
fate we have never learned.
We have been taught to eschew
base ball reports from oar columns
unless protected by the high Sheriff,
with his posse cDDlifGjuS.

Sunday School Picnic.

Jordan IS a good place, especially
the little Jordan hear Manning, with
its warm hearted citizens ever ready
to greet the visitor with an honest
old time welcome. We accepted with
alacrity, an invitation to this neigh
borhood last Saturday, to spend day
in the woods with the pupils and
teachers of the Union Sunday School
which has its headquarters at what is
known as the Davis school house.
When we reached the ground We
found a large crowd already assem-
bled and scattered around in every
direction. In one place groups OF lit
tie girls and boys, in white holiday
costumes-emblems of their inno-
cence and purity were happily, romp-
ing in the full freedom of a picnic
day. Here, there and yonder was the
sweet demoiselle and her gallant beau,
enjoying the rare occasion to the
hearts complete delight-having a
good time; there too was the gentle
matron busily attentive to an inviting
array Of baskets and boxes, and gath
cred in little knots on the suburbs OF
the crowd, were the worthy sires dis
cussing the crops, the effect of the
rains, politics, with multitude Of 9th
er subjects. TO the latter we joined
ourselves and were soon eng-ossed in
the topics of tie day. We were some
what surprised to hear the sanguine
comments Of many Of the farmers, on
their cotton prospect; indeed a larger
part seemed to think that over an av-
erage crop would be made. We over
heard one gentleman Of large means
and q very successful farmer, face
tiously remark: "It don't make any
difference if we don't make any cot
ton, for then we won't lose anything
but the seed" There was but little
interest manifested in politics. Now
and then the remark Was heard, 'von-
der goes a candidate" The one point
Ell oat, blushing with modesty, would
HE himself to another part Of the
field, seemingly ashamed that on SC
peaceful an occasion his incognito
Should be discovered.
The time passed rapidly, With
drinking delicious iced lemonade, and
merry chit chat, till about 5 o'clock,
when dinner was announced. The
ladies were first invited to the table,
which was arranged under the SIZED
adjoining the school-house. Ny
how restiye those in male attire be
came when, with enchanted vision,
we beheld the tempting baskets, uu-
burGcncd of their loads. Many, with
greedy eyes, realized, perhaps, tor TIC
tirst time, that the softer sex We're not
without appc>ites, an>l Just then to
have donncd petticoats would have
been considered a sweet privilege.

over the telegraph wires, the
demand npon the unseen ;nscrutable
God Of providence: 'iAhat docst

Tie result of such prcsumptious
qucstionings must bc r3ost pcrnic-
ions. T!1ev encourage groundless
suspicious against the Heavenly King,
and restless doubts in regard to the
wisdom OF goodness Of His admins
tcation. In such III encounter with
Providence, many reason has been
lost and many 4 heart drowned and
wrecked in anguish, like ships broken
on rocks. In all their references to
Gods mysterious dealings, the script
ures urge upon us the great duty of
trust. Man knows not the beginning
or the end OF Gods work, yet ali Is IN
its season. Ec. 3: II. And all the
ways of God are perfect. Ps. Is: 80.
They teach US that it is better to trust
in his wisdom than in mans; better
to rest upon his eternal truth and
fatherly love, than to waver to and fro
in querulous questionings. They en-

periences as christians. How often

= HOP YEAsT.--Two tablespoonsEul Of
hops to quart of water; let them steep
we'll; make thickening of six potatoes
mashed fine, and three tablespoonful of
flour worked into the potatoes; strain
the hop water upon it. stir it well, and
when cool add enough yeast to work it.
Bottle and keep in o cool place.
PoTATo BALLs.-Mash boiled potatoes
till they are quite smooth; add little
salt, then knead them with -four to the
thickness required; toast on the griddle,
pricking them with fork to prevent
their blistering. Eat them warm, with
fresh butter; they will be found equal
to crumpets. and much more nutri-
tious.
MINT sAUcr.-Choose fresh and young
mint, strip the leaves from the stems,
wash and drain. chop them finely, and
add two tablespoonsfuI OF pounded sugar
to three heapel tablespoonsful of mint.
Mix thoroughly. and pour in gradually
six tablespoonsful Of good vinegar. The
proportions can be varied according to
taste.
BATTER FOR FHTTTERs. Beat up
tablespoonful of brandy and little cold
water, with the yolk of one egg; add q
pinch of SALT then work in sufficient
flour to make, with the addition OF more
water. as much batter as will be needed.
1t should be of the consistency of thick
cream. just before using beat the
whites of eggs to stiff froth and mix
them lightly but effectually with the
batter. ............. ... .....
ASPARAGUS. Gut the heads four or
five inches long; scrape them and throw
them into cold water; tie them in bum
dies; put them into boiling water with
plenty of salt in it; let them come
quickly to boil-they will take from o
quarter of an hour to twenty minutes.
When tender take them up with a slice;
drain them well ); remove the string,
and lay the asparagus in dish, heads
inwards. on slices of toast previously
dipped in the liquor Serve with melted
butter. Sea kale is dressed in the same
manner. ';..--.- ......''-..
LEMON EXTRACT. To prepare the best
lci-4on extract for favoring purposes,
procure a quart bottle, have it perfectly
Leaf and clean, pare tho yellow rind off
the lemon carefully, taking off IS little
of the white skin as possible, cut it in
fine bits, put it in the bottle end fill up
With the best alcohol-only the best will
cut tho oil, which is t-.o Gavoring de-
sired, end exists in the outside rind only.
A dozen lemons will mako q quart of
the extract. The cheapest way is to
have your bottle ready, and whenever q
lemon is used. save the outside rind and
drop it in the alcohol. In that way YOU
have o much better extract than any
that can be bought, and the cost is COM
paratiyely small.
