The Huron Expositor, 1871-08-11, Page 6• t: 6. THE HURON EXPOSITOR; Brave Women.. - An English -surgeon in the service of the Paris Commune wiites respect- • ing its last hours as follows: "Then commenced, perhapS, the most hor- rible of all the fights I had yet Seen • in the streets. Just as the Nationals were retreating, a battalion 4f women ame up the street at a trot, , and with cries of Yivtiela Commune,' began firing. They Were armed With the Snider rifle, and fired admirably. t'Many pretty -looking young girls were there, destined, no doubt, for far better things than killing men. They fought like devils, far b tter than the men, and I had the in of seeing fifty-two shot down ev4 when :they had been surrounded by the troops and disarmed. I saw about sixty men shot at the sam6 place as the women, at the sameti. A touching little incident rue thy view, which completely untintianed me. While Paris was blazing in the night, the cannon roaring, and the musket rolling, a poor woman was crouching inside a care crying bitterly. I offered her a glass of wine and a riece of bread. She re -- fused it, saying, For the shorttime I have to live I shall not need it.' The troops were then Ou the ether, side of the barricades, having taken the Caserne du Prince . Eugene, Chateau d'Eau, and at midnight the firing ceased.. Suddenly -I heard six shots in rapid succession, and . by their sound knew them to be -revolv- er reports. A great uproar on the other side of the barricade fotlowed, and looking,. at a great risk, out of the window, I saw the poor .woman I have just described about to be seized by four troopers, teho were -divesting her rapidly of her • outer garments.- Impelled by I know not -what, I left the house, and crept over the barricade,. and • crouched • dowii by the lamp -post on the other, side. I heard the harsh voice of • the officer in command of the troops interrogating the woman, saying, • You are brave—you .have killed two of my men.' The woman laugh- ed derisively, and responded. in a hardened manner. 'May the curse of the Almighty always rest upon my soR1 for not killing more! • I •bad twb sons at Issy, who were both killed, and We at Neu -illy 'who shared the sal, fate. My husband died at this barricade, and now do with me what you will; I heard no more; but crept away, but not too Foon to hgar the word Fire I' and then. I knew that all was over. We deserted the barricade that night." To Purify Dairy 'Utensils. • n Stand oend, in a convenien place for use, an open-ended vesse of snitable dimensions for the siz of the dairy, say from a half barre to hogshead. In this slake som good quick -lime, enough to make thin whitewash when filled full o water, and cover to keep out dus and dirt. The lime will settle, leav ing .a saturated solution of lime over it, as clear as spring water. Afcer using the inilk-pans, etb., _ wash them as other Utensils- are waelted and rinsed, then dip them in the adjoining cask of clear lime • water, giving them a quick turn, SO that every part becomes, im- mersed therein; set them to drain and dry, arid the purfiica- tion is complete, withont any scald- • ing process from the new pan to the • old wornout one. The lime in the clear .water instantly neutralizes tlie • acidity of the milk yet remaining in • the cracks or seams, &c., of the milk vessels, to destroy which the the process of scalding has been performed. In the case of a very small dairy, or of one cow, the clear • water may, if preferred, be dipped out for the time being and poured gently- back again, the lime puri- • fying the water and keeping it geed • all summer. Of course there will be a little waste and. evaporation, which will be made. up by add- ing -,clean water as needed, the lirrie settled in the bottom of the cask keeping up the strength eft the saturated solution.—Country • Gentleman. 1 1 a • Oiling Kitchen Floors. Inquiry was made sometime since • in relation to oiling floor,—how done and with what success. We can inform oar readers that we have • given the practice a good trial this year, with satisfactory results. ;The floor of a new kitchen was made of thoroughly seasoned white ash --to procure which it was necessary to send a distance to a city where much of it is used in building. After the four was laid and the plaeteting of the it out comp] et ed and d tied, ^ the • oil was applied with a common paint brush, taking care to spread it on evenly, so as not to give it a blotch' - ed or clouded appearance. In a day or two tithe floor was quite dry for use. The oil was linseed oil. Pe- troleum, would no doubt be 11) ore efficient as a preservative of the wood, but its odor in the room would be an insuperable objection ; while linseed oil is not in the least offen- sive. Sometimes a light brown soft paint, as umber or burnt sienna, is mixed with the oil to give it more, color, but we found in dais instance that the oil alone applied -to the ash deepened :the hue sulliciently, and brought out the natural grain of the wood in a beautiful manner. We shall repeat the oiling as often as once a year ---0 rhapS once in six motiths, as it ma be' needed. The_ adyantak s of oiling are, greater cheapness as compared with painting; rednd g the labor of scrubbing; pree i ting grease -spots ; and hancieeme att earance—aountry Gentle 92. • ' Is the undayl-, ehool a Failure ? 1 4 i saw n accon it of a Sabbath. school ni eting in Massachusetts, in which a lergymat spoke of 'S unday- schools a4 a -fail ura !
