rooms, another OF salt, and so on, alter
nately; cover with folded towel, and
stand in a warm place for twenty
four hours; then mash and strain through
piece of cheese cloth. To each quart of
this liquor add an ounce of peppercorns
and boil slowly in porcelain-lined kettle
for half an hour; then add a0uarter ounce
OF whole allspice, half ounce OF sliced
green ginger root, one dozen whole cloves
and three blades of mace, and boil again
for fifteen minutes; take from the fire,
and when cold strain through a flannel
and put into small bottles, filling to the
very top. Cork tightly and dip in sealing
wax.
Indian into a stone jar one
gallon of the best cider vinegar. Put into
Il bowl four ounces of good Indian curry
powder, same quantity of ground mustard,
then add a hall pint of good olive oil with
a wooden spoon mix until thoroughly
blended; then add three ounces OF green
ginger root, cleaned and cut into thin
slices, one ounce of turmice, six good
sized eschalots, six cloves of garlic, cut
into small pieces, a quarter OF pound OF
salt and level teaspoonful of cayenne;
mix and add these to the vinegar. Cover
the Jar and stand in a warm place for
three days, stirring il three or four times
each day. At the end OF the third day
have ready some very small cucmbers,
some sliced cucumbers, some sliced onions,
and some small button onions, cauli-
flower, celery, broccoli, white cabbage,
string beans, nasturtiums, and, if you can
get them, about half-pint of radish-pods.
These must be used insuch quantities that
the vinegar will just cover them. The
cauliflower, button onions, celery, broccoli
and beans must be parboiled before
using.
The pickles will be ready for use in
about week, and will keep all winter.
Grape Jam.-Pick the grapes from the
stems put them into a porcelain-lined
kettle; add sufficient water, about half
pint, 20 prevent scorching; cover and cook
slowly for about a half hour; then press
through sieve coarse enough TO remove
the seeds; if the sieve IS too fine it will
prevent too much OF the skin from passing
through it, Measure this pulp, and TO
each pint allow a half pint of granulated
sugar; boil rapidly for twenty minutes;
skim; turn into tumbers or jars. When
cold, fasten the same as Jelly.
This is especially nice to serve with
roasted or praised meats.
Green grapes may be treated in the
same manner.

In the Matter of Mutton.


Mutton has received but small share
OF the attention of farmers compared with
the consideration given wool, yet the NUT
ton breeds yield carcasses weighing over
two hundred pounds when properly fat
tened, and the lambs are often ready for
market when ten weeks old. There are
hundreds of farms well adapted for the
mutton breeds, and the only objection TO
them is that more labor is required in
their care, as the small merinOs exist in
larger hocks and subsist on scanty her
bage, but the wool-growing system is a
patriarchial one SIS now practiced, which
system does not deserve encouragement.
In England the sheep is not kept for wool
at all. The farmers OF England make more
profit from one Shropshire, Oxford or
Southdown grade sheep than our farmers
derive from half dozen merinos. With
the mutton breeds the English farmer
pays high rents, while in this country
wool is not profitable unless the sheep can
be kept on billy land that would other
wise be useless, and they are allowed to
roam and forage over large surface.

Two Questions Answered.
rpb;ladeTpbfa pacord

A subscriber asks: (1) "How many pigs
should be together in one pen, and what
should be the dimensions of the pen ?
% What are the causes of butter not
keeping over four days? We work it
well, nave spring, the cellar is cool, and
the cream is only one weeks gathering"
The number of pigs is a matter of prefer
ence. Two pigs together will thrive bet
ter than than one alone. Six pigs should
be a maximum number. They should
forage when young, but pen ten feet
square will be ample room, If it be kept
clean and dry after they are confined.
The difficulty with the butter is the age of
the cream. A week is too long to save the
cream for churning. Three days cream
may be used, and if cream from a single
days milking can be used it is still better.
Mixed cream (of different ages causes the
butter to be somewhat bitter.

The young prince is barely 16. He is
still under the care of his tutors, and his
studies, which are on a sensible, practical
and extensive scale, are never suffered to
bear any interruption. He is as yet some
what below the middle height His hair
is fair, his complexion pale, and his blue
eyes have winning expression of gentle
cheerfulness. He more closely resembles
his maternal grandfather, the King of
Saxony, than his Italian ancestry. His
memory is prodjgious. His preceptor,
Col. Oslo, formerly military attache to
the embassy at Berlin, who fulfills his
duties with conscientious firmness and de-
votion, speaks highly of his pupil. 1t is
his ambition to make him ''every inch a
king"
When the boy was still little child he
was on the most intimate terms with the
colonel and exceedingly anxious to please
him. After having successfully gone
through his lessons he would turn to him
and say: Colonel, kiss your little prince
if you are satisfied with him.
He speaks English perfectly, having had
from his birth an English nurse, to whom
he was deeply attached and for whom he
mourned sincerely when she died short
time ago. The little fellow was so con-
scientious that, having been ordered by
his mother to speak nothing but English
on certain days, he would not break
through the rules even to answer high
functionary who addressed him success
sively in Italian and French, looking i'm
ploringly all the time at the queen, who
was present, as if begging her to explain
his apparent diScourtesy. He had the free
disposal of a small weekly allowance.
One day, after having been unusually
quiet and obseryant at some public
pageant, ne was seen to pull his mothers
skirt and ask her what the price Of silk
gown was. Because" he added, ''here
are all my savings. See if they will buy
enc for my nurse"
The queen Is passionately fond of the
son on whom the crown of Italy must de-
scend, but abe never allows her alteration
10 become weakness. Handsome, elegant,
fascinating, worshiped by all who ap-
preach her, idolized by her subjects Queen
Marguerite has, under the outward ap-
pearances of worldly light heartedness
and womanly ease a strong sense of what
Is due TO her husband and her rank, and
what is expected of her high position.

A Sublime Victory,

The victory won IN the civil war was, IN
FIVE particulars, the greatest in history: The
victors captured the forces opposed tothen,
and these among the braveSt of mankindi
they secured the largest territory ever taken
in war; they destroyed utterly the subject
matter Of the contest; they settled the issues
so thoroughly that no retTial can ever be
necessary. and, most glorious triumph of all,
they captured the hearts of the brave men
they conquered. Grant did not merely force
the surrender of Lees veterans; he won their
regard There was no "suhjugation;" he did
not make them ''pass under the yoke" They
began by respecting him and ended with
warmer feeling; they prayed for him in his
affection, and moarned sincerelv at his death.
His spirit survives III the universal amnesty,
social and POLITICAL; the war worn Confeder-
ate and the old Federal sit side by side III the
national congress and meet anicahly in the
social circle Even in the border states,
where one would naturally expect local ha-
treds to survive longest, one will meet in the
same parlor survivors of both armies, shar-
ing impartially the smiles of the fair; and if,
as rarely happens, some one with more men1-
CRY than charity ventures 10 mouth the

Contrast this condition with that of other
lands where civil war has ragged; with Scot
land where one uprising followed another
for sixty years; with Ireland where the feud
of Saxon and Celt, at the end Of two cen
t,1ries is only half appeased Is it not a fact
that moro men have been killed and wounded
