American Emereon says : "1 have
thought a sufficient measure of civilizeticin is the influence of good women."
He is said to be the most popular essayist
in Germany; and itis certain that thee
people are most fond of . such literature
as it is furthest beyondtheircomprehen-
sion. Nevertheless, no true Saxpn
would subscribe to this particular dog
-
Ina.. For, yonder market -Wagon, high
piled_ with „country Produce, and drawn
by a woman and a dog tugging on either,
side the shaft, While thel husband -driver
walks unerteumbered alongside -is se far
from being a singular spectacle that,
after now some six years' daily familiar-
ity with it, I confess to a difficulty in
quite sympathizing with the indignation
of a new comer. But, indeed, this is
nothing, only at nightfall we shall meet
, the same wagon homeward drawn by the
same team; and Io seated upon the
same empty hampers, smokes serene the
man and master of . all Let us be
rational, why walk hotne when ottr wo-
man. and dog ' are at hand to carry us?
Why do not the wonaan-emanci atiomsts
come to Saxony, and see with their own
eyes what •the capacities of the sex
* actually are?. Here women show more
strength and endurance than many of
their huebands and brothere do. They
carry on their broad backs, for miles,
heavier ;weights than I should care to
lend my shoulders to. Massive are their
legs as the banyan -root ; their hips • are
as the bows- 'of a three -decker. ,Backe
have they like derricks ; rough lands
like pile -drivers; They; wear knee -short
skirts, sleeves at elbows, headkerchiefs.
As a rule they possess animal geed
nature and vacant amiability. But at
twenty or twenty-five they are already
growing old. Growing old with them is
a pairtful process, not a graceful one.
The reserves of vitality are dry, and the
woman's face becomes furrowed, even a.s.
the fields she cultivates. Her eyes fade
into stolidity and unintelligence, ' Her
mouth seldomesmiles, -Thirty4nds her
hollow-cheekedt evitherecln 'betty.' At
fifty, should she live so long—she is in
extreme old age. Meanwhile she has
. been bearing children as plentifully as
though that were her sole employment.
But such labors secure her scarce a tem-
perary immunity from other toil. I have
seen her straining up a long hill, weighed
with more burdens than one. Pleasanter,
is it to consider her in the hayfield, be- -
fore youth has dried up in her, Her
.plain costurata'follows her figure elosely-
enough to show to the best advantage its
heavy but not unhandsome contours.
Seen from a distance, her motions and
postures have often an admirable grace.
Her .linibs observe harmouions lines. In
raking, stooping, tossing the hay, her
action is supple and easy. As she la-
bors in the sun, she keeps up a continuous
good-hemored chatting with her com-
panions. Her bare arms and. legs are
bronzed by summer exposure to heat—
and dirt, and her visage is Of a color al-
most Ethiopian. But an Ainerican*
- Southerner might see in her more than
the dark complexion to put himin. mind '
of former days and institutions.—Julian.
Hawthorne,- Contemparary ReViC720,
To Roast a Goose.
Let the bird be about eight months.
old, -and. killed at least twenty-fotir hours
before it is cooked. The fatter it is the
better. Remove every pin feather, singe
carefully,' draw elect take away everen
thing not eatable from the neck and.
body. All the loose fat should be re-
moved. and tried out by itself. Take the
neck, middle joint of the wings, Event
heart, and gizzard, and. stew them tott
gether gently for several hours. They:
will make a nice pie. For the stuffing
take two large onions chopped fine, et
tablespoonful of pulverized sage, a tea-
spoonful of black pepper, and two tea:i
spoonfuls of salt, adding a little crumbled
bread. Goose is strong food, and re-
quires strong dressing. When the bedy.
of the bird is stuffed, close the opening.
to keep the steam in and the fat out: .
Put butter or a slice of fat pork on the
breast when the goose is put in the ovcii,
but do not put any water in the dripping -
pan. Bake two honrs, basting every 20
or 30 minutes with the fat in the pan,
When the goose is done remove from the
pan, pour off the fat and see it away, add
to the brown gravy in the pan thelgravy
from the giblets, bring the whole to a
boil and serve. Apple sauce and ' onion
sauce are proper accompaniments to
roast goose. ,
Care of Glass and China.
It ought to be taken for granted that
all china -and glassware is well tempered;
yet a little careful attention may not be
misplaced even on that point; for thougli
ornamental china or glassware is not ex-
posed to the action of hot water in cone
mon domestic use, yet it may he inju-
diciously immersed in it for the purpose
of clearing; and. as articles intended
solely for ornament may not be so high-.
ly annealed as others, without frauxin-
lent negligence on the part of the naanta
facturer, it will be proper never to apply
water to them beyond a tepid tempera-

ness follows. Cold hands and feet, the
result of imperfect circulation, are often
cured by keeping the skin in a. perfectly
healthy condition. - • •
Want of cleanliness has . more to do
with the prevalence of croup and diph-
theria in cold weather than many people
think. Our city physieians in consulta-
tion over the cause and cure of diph-
thmia give prominence to cleanliness as
the best preventive. Not long since, in
a fashionable house in New York, three
children died of this fearful disease.
Upon careful inquiry it was found that
the carpets of the house, which was rent-
ed furnished; had not been taken up or
dusted for many years. Curtains, car-
pets, and woolen garments which cannot
be washed may be cleansed by thorough
airing and beating, and. however clean
they may seem to the eye, they should
undergo this process frequently. Especi-
ally is this true of blankets ana other
bedding.
Value of Evergreen Trees
Among Fruit Trees:
A well grown evergreen tree gives off
continually an exediam of warmth-- and
moisture that reaches a distance of its
area in height; and when the tree
planters advocate sheiter belts, sur-
rounding a tract of orchard of fifty or
More acres, when the influence of such
belt can only reach .a distance of .the
height of the trees in said belt, they, do
• that which will prove of little value. To
ameliorate din -tate; to assist in preven-
tion of injury against- extreme climatic
cold. in winter and of the frosting of the
germ bud of the fruit in spring,. all
orchards should have planted, in and
about them indiscriminately, evergreen
trees at distauces each of not more than
150 feet aparb ue1a Oeurse piirs44,
we have ha -doubt, will •render greater
health to the trees, andbe productive of
mai regular and uniform crops of fruit.
-At all events, it is worth trial, and we
shall be glad if our readers can inform us
of any practical experiments on the sub-
ject. •
Seventy -five -Hundred. Milds for
• : Wife:
At the German Reformed Church,
.Cine.i.einati, on *day aftereoon last,
there was -an interesting marriage cere-
I enony, the parties to the contract being
I Alexander Franz Zur Rosen'of St.
I Petersburg, Russia, antl Miss Sarah Ep-
i stein, daughter of pr. Ephraim M. Ep-
stein, of Cincienati. . The church was
crowded with the friends of the bride
and her' parents. The bridegroom traces
his lineage back to the sturdy mercantile
nobility. of Holland. He is a man of
-Wealth, and conducts a flourishing to-
bacco trade in St. Petersburg. As to the
wooing there is a bit of romance. In an
album in. the house of some of the Ep-
stein relatives in St. Petersburg; the
young merchant saw a photograph of
Miss Sara.h. In a twinkling of an eye he
fell in. love, and expressed an ardent
wish. to see the fair original. Corres-
pondence followed, photographs were
exchanged, and about a year ego Miss
Epstein made a visit to Russia: Pre-
liminaries were arranged, with the result
above stated.
A NEW PROFESSION FOR WOMEN . —
A new industry. for women- has been
commenced in England by four ladies of
standing in London. It is that of home
decorative artists. They undertake the
whole furnishing, upholstering, furni-
ture, and all that tends to embellish the
interior �f a dwelling. They are said to
be remarkably clever and very success-
ful. They have served a regular ap-
prenticeship, and- acquired a thorough
knowledge of the business. It ivoeld
seem to be a business peeuharly fitted to
the taste for and love of the beautiful in-
herent in women. 1

And ea he went on for some.time, until
between his neighbor's exclamations to
"keep it down," andthe minister's con-
tinually reiterating "I see it," the one
with the duck got into such a flurryi that
he took hold of the bird in his pocksby
the legs, and drawing it out, made it de-
scribe several circles round his head, and
then threw it off in the direction of the
good man's pate, exclaiming as lie did
so'"When ye're sae sure ye, see't, tak'
it there _and keep it." And so saying,
he Made as fast as possible an exit to the
door, followed at the heels by his

A Sad Case.
Mr. Daniel Moseart, of Ann Arbor,
Mich., a well known watch inventor,
has been laboring for years upon a very i
intricate watch, which, without being of '
any larger size than usual, was to show
quartereeconds,'seconds, minutes, hours,
days of the week, and ofthe month, and
months -of the year. E4ry fifth time
the watch was opened, itt was to wind
itself: It appears that Mr. Mosearahad
completed his model, so that it worked
successfully, and had received a large
offer from parties for. the. exclusive' right
to manufacture. Some slight -trouble in
,the :works necessitated taking them to
the best cement, both for strength and pieces, but, on attemptine to put them
invisibility, is that made frona mastic. together again, the inventor found him -
The process, indeed, may be thoueht self unable to do so --some f ti •
tedious; but a sufficient quantity can be
made at ouce to la.st a lifetinie, To an
°untie of mastie add as much highly rec-
tified. spirits of wine as will dissolve it -
Soak an ounce of isinglass in water until
quite soft ; then dissolve it il pure ram
or brandy until it forms a strong glue,
to which add abont a quarter of an ounce

in an earthen vessel over a gentte heat •
when well united the mixture 'may be
put into a phial and. kept well stopped.
When wanted for use the bottle must be
set in warm water and the articles to be
mended must also be warmed before the
cemeut is applied. The broken surfaces
when carefully joined should be kept in
close contact for at least twelve hours
after which the fracture will be scarcely
less perceptible and the adhesion perfect
The broken portion -will also be as strong
as the unbroken. Thesame cement may
be applied to marble and even to metals.

Effects of a "Gude Prechin'."
The effects of a (rood preaching on a
Sabbath are well illustrated by the fol-
lowing : Two chaps --we'l1 call them
that for want of a better name—set off
one Sabbath morning to go to church.
The road, which was a foot -path, led
through a farm, ancl as they had
lingered on the way, they were mtieh too
aate for the morning service, and, more-
over, as was his custom, the fame)and
all his household with him were off at
church. While our, two friends were
passing through the corn yard a uumber
of splendid. fat ducks attracted their at-
tention. In a short conversation Which
followed it was agreed to capture the
best they could lay hands on. Accord-
ingly it was, after an exciting ehase, got,
and daly bagged in the greatcoat in-
side pocket of one of them, and. the jour-
ney resumed to church. The psalms were
over and the first prayer began when they
entered to the afternoon service; so that
at the very outset they made themselves
conspicuous. The minister's text was
the three words,. " I see it," and he ex -
'pounded on them- so .eviall,*and so often
cast his he4 in the direction of the two
worthies, that the ontenvithout the duck
