Potato Lore.
Potato.s may be used in a variety of agreeable w ys. and the P, E [sland article being of excellent quality generally, it is well to adapt them attractively to their table usea. Potato-puff is a valuable addi. tion to the briakfest rasher, or sausage. Take a bowl of mashed cold potato and beat it to a cream with about two ounces of butter melted; then m x in two we l-beaten eggs, and one cup of cream or rich milk Pour inte a deep dish and bake in a quick oven.
In Scotland, cold boiled potatoes are fre- quently squeezed up and mixed with flour
‘or oatmeal, and an excellent cake or scun obtained.
There is a country fashion in England of ribb ning pot: toes—that is, after paring them, to soak them in water for about ten minutes, and then dry ona cloth. Then peel them inte ribbons till the centre is reached. They are cooked like doughnuts and served hot, but the lard or butter mast be allowed to drain off. Dust them with a little salt,
A delicious acccmpaniment to delicately broiled mutton cutlets, may be made from mashed potato rubbed through a sieve, and moistened with stcck or broth, and about two ounces of butter to the pound of mash. Stir it well while over the fire until hot, when it is ready to serve.

The Maamtrasna Murders.
The New York Sun’s cable special of the 19th says: ‘‘It is now believed that Lord Spencer is inclined to favour a full jenquiry as to the confession of Thomas ‘Casey and Anthony Philbin, who have sworn that Miles Joyce and others were ‘hanged on perjured testimony for the 'Mamtrasna murders. The Lord Lieut. has been greatly agitated by the revelations ‘obtained by Timothy Hasrington, M. P. for West Meath, in his search for infor- ‘mation among the Connemara peasants who » lived near Maaaitrasna where John Joyce,

It is certain that this episode will forma prominent feature in the next Parliamentary debate on [Irish affairs, and the adhesion of the Parnellites to the Liberals or the Tories will hinge largely upon the Government’s action in this matter. Lord Spencer is now said to feel somejtwinges of conscience regarding these hangings, which have time and again been stigmatized as judicial murders, He has sent a force of Government detectives

‘purchased a month before the bank ad- | vanced the money, and on which, of * course, I could get no estimate. I expected an estimate for the labor performed on the building, but did not get it, because Mr. Barber says he gave me an over-estimate for $1,000 previously, and that nothing is now due me, That being the case, I saw I could not pay the bank, and stepped work. I might have made other creditors and paid the bank, but did not think I would be | justified in doing se, or that it would be honest. I had no money to meet my ‘liabilities with, and the $8,500 had to be lost by some one. I am sorry for the bank, but after all it is better able to lose it than private individuals with wnom I ; might have contracted debts. Mr. Stevens ,the manager of the bank, tries to make out that I deceived and defranded him. If I did deceive him, I did it innocendy.— Win-

The in‘eresting uses to which agricultur- al fairs and lieutenant govern:rs may be put have just been ill strated it the recent ‘fair of the West Yo:k and Vaughan Agri- leultural societies, in Ontario. Says the | Mail's report :—A novel part of the day's proceedings was the presentation of asplen- j did gold ring set with pearls, from Mr. ht Swan, Toronto, to the best lh oking Jady at the fair. Messrs. R. Donald, Frd. 3 Wilkins and Wm. Bradshaw, of Toronte, were appointed judges, The three judges went around throngh the assemblage to pick out the ycung k dy who was entitled to the prize. The duty was an extremely difficult erd delicate one. After several hours of arduous labor the judges awarced the prize to Miss M. Fisher, of F.sherville. His Honor the Lieutenant-Governor, pre- sented the ring, and expressed the ; leasure it afforded him to do so. When he was asked to make the presentation he thought the Lieutenant Governor had a great variety of duties to perform. He had to dedicate churches and open Parliament,but in no duty did he take more pleasure than in the present one. The young men who made the selection might have been pre- judiced, but if they were they were quite justified. He had great pleasure in placing the ring on the finger of the recipient in the hope that she would be soon presented with a better ring by a handsome man. The speech was followed by 2 hearty round of cheers from those assembled.

After having cut cff the useless parte, and softened the chin by soaking, remove the fatty matter from the inside and soak it in warm water foran hour. Next mix equal parts of borax, saltpetre, and Giauber'’s salts (sodium sulphate) in the proportion of about half an ounce of each for each skin ; spread this with a brush over the inside of the skin, applying more on the thicker parts than on the thinner; double the skin together flesh side inward, and place it in a cvol place. After stand- wg twenty-four hours, wash the ekin clean, and apply in the same manner as before a mixture of 1 ounce sal soda, half ounce borax, and 2 ounces of hard white soap, melted slowly together without being allowed tv boil; f.ld together, and put away in a warm place for twenty-four hours. After this dissolve 4 ounces alum, 8 ounces salt, and 2 ounces saleratus in sufficient hot rain water to saturate the skin ; when cool enough not to scald the hands, soak the skin in it for twelve hours; then wring out and hang it upto dry. When dry, repeat this soaking avd drjing two or three times till the skin is sufficiently soft. Lastly, smooth the inside with fine sand paper and pumice stone.——Ncicntific American. Protection has risen to lbigh level in French politics. From ell parts «f the country comes the demand for increase of duties upon foreign impcrts to protect the agricultural as weil as the inaustrial indvs- tries. Meline, minster of agriculiue, has introduced a bill to place duties upon im- ports of live stock, of wheat ard flour. The Republique Francaise openly advocates it as necessary for the salvation of the dis- tressed industries which are suflering from foreign competition. Even Premier Ferry declares that his government is favorable to the principle, and has indicated that by proclaiming its intention of putting a duty on Cereals,

Though wheat is selling at unprecedently low prices and flour has fallen far below the figures of a few months ego, the cry is gen- eral in this and the old countries that the bakers seem to have entirely forgotien that circumstances and either have net at all, or but slightly lowered the price of bread, The housewives will have to set to work making their own bread or the co-operative baking come into operation if the consumer is to get the full benetit of the decline in price of cereals and flour.
