‘Yes, but that is only for no one that really cares for me.’

Jacques, without speaking, took hold of the outstretched hand of the good-natured |

Jean Penalto, and accompanied him to his

father’s cottage

This, like all the tisher.ven’s dwellings at St. Malo, was athatched wooden hut. The floor was of clay; trusses of straw served | for beds, and there was little furniture hes | udely-fashioned

sides a table and some stools; on the walls hung fishingsnets.

As the boys entered a savory odor met them, proceeding from the well thickened vegetable soup which the mother of the | family was lading into bowls for her husband

and five sons.

‘Good morning to you, Jacques!” said | Theresea, smiling pleasantiy @t the sad.

looking boy. Why did you not come to us yesierday.’

Then, without waiting for a reply, she bes stowed a hearty kiss on her two youngest children, who just then entered to dinner.

The last night's fishing bad been success- fui, and the little party were very merry. The father related anecdotes of his youthful fishing excursions, and whe children of the recent ones in which they had assisted, while the good mother listened to them all with complacent love. When the recital, how-

ever, involved any idea of danger, she would |

turn and kiss the forehead of him who had | escaped from it; whilst at the detail of any courageous deed she would raise her head and jook at the hero with heightened color and sparkling eyes.

Jacques alone did not speak or smile, and ate very little.

The repast ended, every one ros’ the ‘el- der ones to return to their varions employ- ments, the younger to their sports. Jacques also was going out, but Theresa detained him at the door.

YELTING MOMENTS.

(New Orleans Picayune.)

One winter evening, a country storekeeper in the Mountain State was about closing his doois for the night, when while standing in

Seth bad his band on the door, and his ha,

sible.

‘Seth,we'll havea httle warm Santa Cruz,’

said the Green Mountain grocer, as he opened } the stove door, and stuffed in as many sticks | as the space would admit.

* Without it you'd freeze going home such | a night as this.’

| Sech was again pushet into his seat by his

cunning tormentor.

‘Oh! it’s too hot here,’ said the petty thief again attempting to rise.

‘I say, Seth, sit down; [ reckon now, on such a night as this, a little something warm wouldn't hurt a fellow; come sit down.

‘Sit down—don’t be in such a plaguey hurry,’ repeated the grocer, pushing him back in his chair.

‘But I've got the cows to fodder, and some wood to split, and ] must be a-going, con, tinued the persecuted chap.

‘But you musin’t tear} yourself away, Seth, in this manner. Sit down; let the cows take care of themselves, and keep yourself cool ; you appear to be fidgetty,’ said the roguish grocer, with a wicked leer.

The next thing was the production of two smoking glasses of hot rum toddy, the very sight of which in Seth’s present situation would have made the hair erect upon his head,had it nut been oiled and kept down by the butter.

‘Seth, il give you a toast now, and you ean buller it yourself,’ said the grocer, yet with an air of such consummate simplicity that poor Seth siill believe! himself unsus-

Seth, don’t you use hog’s fat or common cook- ing butter to baste a goose with.

To Preserve Suoxep Meat.—How often are we disappointed in our hopes of having sweet hans during the summer! After carefully curing and smoking, and sewing them up in bags and whitewashing them, we find that either the fly has commenced a family in our hams, orthe choice parts eround the bones are tainted, and thus the whole spoiled. Now, this can easily be avoided, by packing them in pulverized charcoal. No matter how hot the weather or how thick the flies, hams wiil keep them packed so, for years.

Bean Bread as Diet.—Millow, some years ago, showed that bran bread is an essential article of food; Magendie still further de- monstrated that dogs could live on bran bread alone, but invariably died when cons fined to the whitest French bread; Chevreul and Mourier have lately examined the ques~ tion again, and have corroborated previous experiments. They find the inner surface of the scales of bran is covered with azotised principles which, like diastase, dissolve starch, changing it into sugar; bran acts, in short, according to these physiologists, as a

ferment, and assists digestion in the stomach, |

irrespective of its other characters.

AppLe Duwpiinc.—Peel and core the aps ples and put them in a twosquart basin. Make a crust of either sour cream and soda or with baking powder. Put water enough to cook the apples, and cover with the crust, Put an overlapping cover on the top of the basin, and cook on top of the stove, or bake in the oven, if you prefer. A sauce made of butter, sugar, water, and nutmeg, or lemon, is excellent, as is also sweet cream where the apple is not acid ; twenty-five minutes is long enough to cook ordinary apples. This is sometimes called a ‘Brother Jonathan.’ Peach cobblers are sometimes made similar- ly with peaches instead of apples, and are best with cream for sauce,

Good Water and Free Ventilation.—A town house, to be iiealthy, should possess plenty of good water and free ventilation. Where water is impure or scarce, the incon- venience is really a very serious one, and this should be inquired into with great care asa preliminary—for no house, however suitable in other respects,can be desirable, if this grand means of health and comfort is unat- tainable. Jt is not sufficient that good water is to be had—that it is near at hend—it should be in our house; and it must bea very strong and weighty consideration in- deed that should induce us to overlook this point. The way to discover the purity of water is to fill a deep ale-glass, and then jook down into it; this will display the slightest tinge of color; to be pure water should be colorless. Hard water is objecs tionable, because it contains earth and sa- line substances, which are injurious to some internal diseases. It is not so good for cook- ing, Or washing, or brewing, as what is called soft water, but for washing it can be rendered soft, either by using soda or lye: for dressing vegetables, a small teaspoonful of carbonate of soda will correct the hard- ness. Water containing iron gives addi- tional trouble in the kitchen, because sauce- pans rust much sooner,

Promiscvovs.— Mrs. Alice Robinson, of Will iamston, in the county of Annapolis, and Province of Nova Scotia, deposeth and saith thatin the year 1840, she was fearfully and distressingly afflicted witha combination of of complaints, which allogether rendered her almost entirely helpless, during which time she was treated by one of the ablest phy- sicians residing in the County, and part of the time by two physicians for about a year, and still was not sensible ofany material benelit orrelief. And after a tine she was recom- menfled to a medicine at that time prepared by Mrs Gates, of Wilmot, which in an in- |

credibly short time acied like a charm upon her whole system, and she was entirely cured ofall her various difficulties and complainst, |

| and remained, as she eonsidered, a sound |

aad healthy woman for about twenty-five | years. |

Mrs. Robinson further states, that in the } antumn ef 1869, she was taken ill, and was |

She was also afflicted with piles and othertroublesome com- | plaints. atlength she resolved to apply to!

ADVERTISEMENTS.

When people see a man advertise they kaow he is a business man, and his advertizing pro- claims that he isnot above business, but anxious to do it. Customers, like sheep, are gregarious, and flock where they see others go. If nobody else were engaged in the same business, it would be important to tradesmen and dealers to adver- tize in the paper, because they are tempted to buy what hey read of. But others are engaged in the same business, and even if they do ad- vertize, it becomes the more important for you to doso; if they do not advertize it becomes doubly important.— Anon.”

The necessity of a popular medium for the representation of the productions of our great artist, has always been recognized, and mary aitempls hive been made to meet the want. The successive failures which so invariably followed each attempt in establish an art journal, did not prove the in- difference of the people of America to the claims of high art. So soon asa proper ap- preciation of the want and an ability to meet it were shown, the public at once rallied with enthusiasm to its support, and the result was a great artist and commercial triumph—THE ALDINE.

THE ALDINE, while issued with all regu- larity, has none cf the temporary or timely interest characteristic of ordinary periodicals. It isan elegant miscellany of pure, light, and graceful literature; anda collection of pic- | tures, the rarest specimens of artistic skill, in black and white. Although each succeed- ing number affords a fresh pleasure to its friends, and the real value and beauty of the ALDINE will be most appreciated after it is bound upat the close of the year. While other publications may claim superior cheap- ness, as compared with rivals ofa similar class, THEA LDINE is a unique and original conception—alone and unapproached—ab~ solutely without competition in price or character. The prossessor of a complete volume can not duplicite the quantity of fine paper and engravings in any other shape or number of yuolumes for len limes is cost ; and then, there is the chromo besides !

The national features of THE enenes must Le taken in no narrow sense. True | are its cosmopolitan, While THE ALDINE | is a strictly American institution, it does not confine itself entirely to the reproduction of native art. Its mission is to cultivate a broad and appreciative art taste, one that will discriminate only on grounds of intrinsic merit, Thus, while placing before the pat- rons of THE ALDINE, as a Jeading charac- teristic, the productions of the most noted American artists, attention will always be given to specimens from foreign masters giving subscribers ail the pleasure and in- struction obtainable from home or foreign sources,

Theartistic illusration of American scen- ery, original wilh THE ALDINE is an im- portant feature, and its magnificent plates be are of a size more satisfactory treatmemt of details than afforded by any inferior page. The judicious interspersion of landscape, marine, figure, and anima] subjects, sustain an unabated in- terest, impossible where the scope of the work confines the artist too ciosly to a single style of subject.
