oo A Cheap Ice-House. The following bya pe tera te New York Farmer's Club will furnish information desired by many at this season: Isee inthe papers @ great many inquiries about the best method of maxing a small ice- house. I want to give my experience for the Denefit of the thousands o’ need plenty of ice, and are not aware how cheap a luxury itis. Several years ago I built me an ice-house on the back end of my wood- shed, twelve feet square on the one i walis ‘Aifteen inches thick, and filled it with pine sawdust,a board floor, with sawdust a foot thick under it, and well under-drained; a floor over head, and filled in with sawdust between it and the roof, the door was double, and filled in with sawdust. I congratulated myself on having got everything so snug and tight that no heat could getin, and expected my ice would jast until the winter. I filled it with the finest ice, and to.make the matter doubly sure, 1 cov- ered it with sawdust. It lasted until the mid- dle of July, so that just when I needed it most it was gone. I was told it needed ventilation. I put in a tube four inches square, and tried it another year, it kept scarce the same. 1 then tore out the floor overhead and ieft out a small Window fifteen — by two feet; it then kept until September first. A searae two ago I had my attention called to ap ice house built by a farmer near me, Which was simply a bin made with rough boards, 16 feet square, and roofed over, leavin, a large opening at the front and sides. He sai his ice kept perfectly until the next winter. He put on a layer of sawdust about a foot thick on the ground, and then stacked the ice snugly in the center, IS or 20 inches from the walls, and then filled in with sawdust, and up over the top a foot or more thick. Last winter before filling my ice house, 1 determined to try his method. I accordingly tore out all the interior wall, and shoveled out the sawdust, then filled by staking it smugly in the center 15 to 20 inches from the wall. This space I filled in with pine sawdust and covered the whole over the top @ foot thick or more. 1 left out the window before mentioned, and took down my door and left it all open, so the sun can shine up there every day. Now for results. At the present time I haye an abundance of ice, and the cakes seem to come out as square and per- fect as when they went in, seemingly nothing lacking excep! what is used out. I am satisfied how to build an ice hou: A New € nm & notice of the opening of the Strand Theater on Saturday evening, the London Morning Post writes: «In ‘se of the evening, an incident occurred ch we have some delicacy in alluding, but which as being, so far as we know, wholly without precedent in an English theater, and also as intimating censorship of manners ina quarter where, according to conventional es. , Tefinement is least to be expected, id not, perhaps, be suffered to pass with- out notice. In thestalls, which were occupied for the most part by ladies and gentlemen, manifestly of good social position, and all dressed in evening costume, there was seated, in company with a friend, a talland remarkably pretty woman, the extraordinary iowness of whose dress was a general subject of observa- tion, and gave great scandal to the audience, among the female portion of whom a painful fensation was clearly perceptible. t last public inaignation found expression in a brief, emphatic form. No sooner had the curtain fallen on the first play than there was heard from the gallery a voice uttering, in slow and -measured accents, an injunction which 1 be intended but for one person in the vast assembly. Pa'e with emotion, yet still retaining her gentle, placid look—forthere was no taint of Immodesty in her demeanor—she quietly drew her opera cloak over her shoul- ders, and then tied it tight round her neck. In & few minutes afterwards she rose from ber seat, and, leaving behind her a friend, a m estly dressed woman, walked out of the house, amid hisses from the gallery, and stern Bot less eloquent, in the stall and boxes. S7 During the progress of atrial on Wednes- day, in the case of Richards vs. Patterson, be- fore Justice Mullen, in the Supreme Circuit Court of New York, the counsel for the plain- tiff, in summing up, made some remark which bigbly exasperated the defendant, whereupon the latter sprang from his seat toward the counsel, raised his arm, and was about to strike, when, by direction ot the Court, on of- ficer \interfered and took him into custody. ‘When the jury had retired, the judge arraigned the defendant for contempt. His excuse for the breach of the rules to the Court not being deemed sufficient, he was fined $50, or, in default of payment, thirty days in prison. ‘The fine was promptly paid, and a few min- utes after the jury came igto the court with the verdict in his favor. Tre “Traitor” Lawscit 1x Boston. —In the Supreme Judicial Court this morning,Chief Justice Bigelow set aside the verdict in the case of Sturtevant agt. Allen. The suit will be recollected as one breught to recover dam- ages of the defendant for reporting the plagtiff as & secessionist and traitor to the United States Marshal of this district, in consequence of which the plaintiff claimed that he was ar- Tested and confined in Fort Lafayette eight days.
