Green Peas.
Boiled green peas should be served up.
late hot and a brilliant green color.
The boOks recommend Washing them, after
they are shelled, which is absurd, unless
they hove been shelled in such a manner
as to render washing necessary, but in
such abase I should. prefer to put the
peas in the pig -trough, and wait for an
opportriity to have them shelled in a
cleanly- manner. Certainly washing is
out of the question. , Have them gather-
ed and shelled just before they are
wanted for cooking, for they cannot be
too fresh. The pot in which they are to
be boiled should be large enough to hold

in the peas with a good bunch of fre

tableSphonful to every quart of pea
Cook them at once with boiling wate
but take care not to cook them in an e
cess of water for by observation I ha
:become convinced that when peas a
boiled n a large quantity of water, the
are less palatable than they should
—the goodness is washed out Boil brie
ly with the lid close down. The boo
say, keep the lid off the pot, "ani b
careful th d smoke does not draw in.
What stuff this ! If there was some
poisonous property in peas tp be got ri.
of in the cooking, it might be well to lcee
the lidoff, but no such reason can b
found, and my advice is to keep the li
on, for they cannot boil too fast, and yo
will incur no _ risk ,of spoilin
-your peas with soot or smoke or Slo
cooking. If the peas areyoung I an
fresh -gathered,. they will be cooked i
from 10 to 15 minutes. When quit
tender, but not overdone, pour themint
a Colander, taking care to removal th
bunch pf mint, put them into a ho
vegetable dish, and stir them about wit
a good limp of butter, and serve. It d
customary with cooks'to boil the mint in
a separate saucepan and. then chop a littl
and lay over the peas when they ar
served. By this mode of proceedureth
flaaror i boiled out of the mint arid
thrown s,way in the water, and the cook
ed leavedisfigure the clish. But when
the rni rt1 is boiled with the peas the lat-
ter are agreeably flavored, and the leaves -
of the mint are not waited. Old peas
requie rather different management.
They should be boiled in barely enough
water to cover them, with the addition
of a little extra salt, a good. tablespoonful
(to every quart of shelled peas) 15f moist
sugar, and a bit of soda as large as half a
hazel -1114. If much soda is used the peas
Will go tO pulp. Put in a good bunch of
!mint, and when the peas are drained stir
them with a liberal allowance of butter.
pu may hear of people who put a copper
coin m with peas to insure a good color.
If this is ever done, it is a good case of
intentionalyoisoning, and should be Ise-
verely punished, for if the peas are real-
ly improved in appearance it must be 'by
the communication to them of the deleter-
ious _oxide of copper. I believe that
many of those who talk about using cop-
per for this purpose do not use it at all,
but wish to look, wise and wicked, and
they ought, along with the intentional
pioneers, to be punished for the falsehood.
The shelling of peas is a tedious business,
and it is a.bsolutely necessary sometinies
to have them shelled .some hours befdre
they are cooked. It often happens
that peas can be conveniently shelled in
the evening for next day's cooking, and
if they are not exposed to the. atmosphere
they willi be so little deteriorated by
keeping as!to quite justify the proceedure.
In this caSe'put them as soon as shelled
into a cleat vegetable dish and cover
them with fresh gathered. mint, then
sprinkle the lid of the dish inside
with water and put it on. The -very
small ambunt of moisture thus en-
closed with them will contribute in an
important degree to keep thenpfresh un-

Novel Cha gel Against a
•Clel gyna,n, 1
A Chicago corr ponnt says that for
a period of nearly 10 months there have
een dissensions ih the Ada Street Wes-
leyan Methodist J Church, Chicago. A
portion of the congregation have at length
made out a list of charges against the
pastor, ReV. W. '..5. Dandy,. and founded
cin these charges have commenced a pro-
secution against him, with a view of
having him depos d. from the pastorship
of the church. The following are the
•articulars, as gi en by the correspon-
ent, and which will be of interst to our
r'ea,ders, merely n account of the ex -
'eine novelty a1nd absurdity of the
harges : "11r. Dandy was appointed
to the prstorate oi the Ada street church
by the General C nferenee in last Sep-
tember, notwiths tancling . that there was
a strong opposit on against him. But
once in the positi n he did not even at-
tempt, so it is all ged, to make himself
agreeable to his c iagregation, and it was
• only a short time inti1 he had an open
rupture with a ii an by the name of
Brown, who is no leading in prosecu-
tion. Brown, wi h the aid . of a few
friends, has prepa ed a series of charges
and specification against Mr. Dandy,
and the Presidinit Elder of the district
has been called_ u ton to investigate the
same. These ch rges, summarized, are
as follows : 1, 1 ng ; 2, dishonesty ; 3
Oatronizing, danc ng -schools; 4, using
tobacco; 5, vindi tiveneas . and malad-
4inistration of c t, urch matters ; 6, - in-
creasing the churl h debt. The specifi-
cations to the firs' charge are to the ef-
fct that Rev.' Mr Dandy publicly stated
that the man Bro a spent '25 for preach-
et.a' dinners at th last .Annual Confer-
ehce, in order to • procure influence to
Minister of the Ada street church; and.
pkvent Dandy from being appointed
that, on one occasion, the pastor called
a the housq„ of .the Secretary of the
Board of Teusteeo during his absence,
borrowed the boo* of records, proraising
to return the same` but has never done
so. The charge o dishonesty is specified
to by a repetition f this last offence, the
Secretary claiming it to be dishonest for
a preacher to carryi away the book with-
out his (the Seer ary's) consent. The
third charge is backed up with a speci-
ficaion that 'Rev. Mr. Dandy has al-
lowed his daughter to attend and receive
instructions in dancing at. a -certain fash
ionable dancing -school known as Mar -
tine's. The frnirtl4 charge, using tobac-
co, is vouchecl for by a statenient that
the reverend gent' man is guilty of the
einous crime of si oking, which is con
sidered a bad exa le for Sunday -school
scholars, and whic lessens his dignity
and degrades the p1irity of the church.
His " vindictiven ss" consists in having
pe emptorily ruled at a recent election
N
of a Board of Tru tee, that lady mem-
be s of the church ere entitled to vote,
and that by irtuq of said declaration
they did vote, alth ugh the'1.
same is, and
always has been, contrary t the usages
of said church. he sixf,li offence, so
called, consists in his hal ing induced
the Trustees to fix jhis sala y at $3,000
per annum, wherea • his predecessor was
paid but $1800"
A Frightpned Co -w- Yields Bad-'
Milk.
A correspondent asks if the milk of a
cow badly frightened, a short time previ-
ous to milking, is a healthy article of foo?
He says: "We have a cow that gives good,
rich milk which we use freely in the fami- •
A few clays ago she was badly fright-
ened by dogs, one of which caught her 5z
by the nose a short time before the time
for milking, and the :younger children
that partook of her milk ,were affected
with a derangement of the bowels which
we attributed to the milk. As no such
trouble has been experienced before or
from the rise of this cow's milk, and as
we know 01 110 cause other than. the fright
tq affect the milk, the. thought has occur-
red that this was the cause. Does the
frightening of a cow ever affect her
milk?"

the cow influences more or less the health-
fulness of her milk for the time ibeing.
And. this is especially the case with ani-
mals of highly nervous organizations.
Fear acts powerfully upon the nervous
system, destroying muscular fibre and
deranging the secretions. We j have
known colic and bowel complaint induced
by taking the milk of a badly frightened
cow, and suclimilk we believe to be unfit
for human consumption. It is true that
the effects from eating such milk may
