A FAMOUS PUDDING.-Gimaud de Ia
REVERE, one Of the most learned Of
chefs, discourses eloquently on pastry,
but the most famous Of all French cooks
fails to make so delicious, 70 delicate a
pudding or pie as the celebrated Mrs.
Goodfellow, half a century or more ago,
Of Philadelphia, where her memory, as
well as her inventions, are yet fresh.
Her baked lemon pudding rarely if ever
has been surpassed. Neither -four nor
bread forms part Of its perfection. The
mixture consists only Of eggs, sugar and
butter, with the lemon iavoriDg; it cuts
smoothly when baked like q firm Gus
tard, For this pudding the lemon was
used, the thin yellow rind grated off
upon a large lump Of loaf sugar, then
squeeze the juice into a sauce through
a strainer to avoid the seeds. Add to
this sugar half a pound of powdered
white sugar into a deep earthen pan,
and cut up In it half a pound Of the
best fresh butter, adding the juice. Stir
the mixture to a light cream with a
wooden spaddle. Beat in a shallow pan
six eggs till they are very thick and
smooth; stir them gradually into the
mixture. Butter the rim Of a china or
white-ware dish having a broad rim,
and lay around it a border of the finest
puff paste made in the proportions of a
pint or half a pound Of fresh butter to a
pint or half a pound of sifted -four.
There must not be any paste inside the
dish beneath the mixture. Fill the dish
to the top and set it Immediately into
the oven. Bake for half an hour. Serve
in the dish 1t is baked in, with fine sugar
sifted over it. For a larger pudding
double the ingredients.

GERMAN HONEY CAKEs.-The deli
cious honey cakes are not often seen
nowadays, and few of the younger
generation know OF this good variety of
cakes. Six ounces Of honey and two
generous tablespoonfuls of butter are to
he gently warmed together. Mix light
ly with SIX ounces of sifted flour, half a
teaspoonful of grated nutmeg, with the
same quantity each of grated lemon
peel and carbonate of soda. Mix with
the honey and butter, and let it stand
over night. Roll out thinly, cut into
shapes and bake in a gentle oven All
cakes that have either molasses or honey
in them should bake with a slow heat.
The acid in the honey is sufficient 10
combine with the soda, and no cream of
tartar is necessary. 1t is the same way
with molasses in combination with

FARMERs who object TO paying large
sums for choice ANIMALS should esti-
mate the increased value due to i'm
provement, for a single season, Of the
young stock. Such a calculation will
show that, If the flock or herd is large,
the gain of the stock will be greater
than the cost of a male or any Of the
thoroughbred breeds. 1t Is conse-
quently economical to improve, and the
farmer who does not do 50 is really ex-
travagant, as he deprives himself of
the advantages of better stock, higher
prices, and larger PROFITS, without any
increase in the expenses Of food and
labor.

Truth FOR RURALIsTs. Here is q
bit of gospel truth which is worthy the
consideration Of farmers who are tempt
ed to extravaganza, either by pride or
the display Of their neighbors. A far

out Of debt, than he can in a new, fine
one with q mortgage on IL A family
can worship more devoutly going to
church in a farm wagon, when they are
net afraid of any creditor meeting them
than to 20 in a fine carriage with a
chattel mortgage on the horses, subject
to be foreclosed at any time.

HOUSE..

The speaker laid before the house the
following communication from J. P. Lee
dem, late sergeant at arms OF the house,
directed to the speaker; II regret to re.
port that G. E. Silcott, late cashier OF the
office OF the sergeant at arms, has depart
ed from this city without settling his ae-
counts and have been unable to ascer
tain his wherea bouts. and there is q def
cheney in the cash OF the office. In view OF
these circumstances, l respectfully request
an immediate investigation ofmy accounts
under such action as the house of repre-
sentatives may take in the premises"
Mr.. Adams OF Illinois, therefore offered
the fol lowing resolution, which was unani
mouslv adopted:
Whereas, J. 2. Leedom, late sergeant-at-
arms OF the house OF representatives has
reported to the house that c. q. Silcott,
late cashier OF the Office OF the sergeant-at-
arms, has departed fr ON this city without
settling his accounts, and his wherea bouts
are unknown, and there is q deficiency in
the'cash in said office OF about SIS, 900.
Resolved-That select committee be
appointed by the speaker to examine the
accounts OF said Office and report thereup-
on to the house.
committee which has authority to
administer oaths and reports in whole or
part at any time, was appointed by the
speaker as follows: Adams, Stewart Of
Vermont, Payne, Reed OF Iowa, Holman,
Blount, and Hemphill.
1t appears that SilcOtt got away with
$4,000, perhaps more. His offense is
not extraditable, and if he is in Canada he
is for the present out OF the power of the
United States officers.
Among the members of the house who
lose personal effects are Picker OF South
Dakota, 5000; j. D. Taylor, of Ohio SO, 900
and the Minnesota members $4,000.
Among the bills introduced in the senate
we're the following:
By Senator Notwithstanding secretary
OF the interior TO cause necessary surveys
to be made and artesian wells to be sunk
to develope the artesian basin underlying
the state OF South OAK ota, with view
to the use OF the waters for irrigation.
An appropriation OF $15,0 900 is asked
for; also a bill to prohibit officers and

since the publication OF the account of

one branch of this family is said to be
descended from French marquis of o,

of Henry III.
In addition to the French village
named Y there is River in Holland,
and in Sweden there is village called
A.
1t Is said that there is in China a
village called v but as the Chinese
have no equivalent for our alphabet
the bestowing of this name upon it on

the ingenuity of the geographer, who,
had no room to get in "Vee" on his
