The question as to the site was discussed @tsome length, but no conclusion was ar- rived at.

B:- cause al] the nutritious portion of the b an § extracted by the process. They should be washed iu warm water, then in cold, be tied loosely in a cloth, be put into boiling water. with & spoonful ofdripping and a@ little salt in it, and be kept boiling for four hours. They are then excellent if served with gravy, and not with melted butter. serv garnish round roast mutton or beef, and excellent eating served whole or as & puree. To make the latter, when the beans aredone throw them instantly into cold water, when the skins will slipoff. Rub the beans through a callender, and mix a lump of butter with them, A little stock, or milk, or cream is excellent mixed in. Why should plenty of fast-boiling water be used in boiling vegetables, potatoes ex cepted? Because the greater of ling water the greater the heat. Ifonly a little water be used, the whole affair soon cools, and the vegetables become tough, so much £0 that no length of time in boiling them will render them otherwise. Broccoli sprouts tn April, if properly cooked by boil- ivg them for eight minutes in boiling water, will be tender as marrow; but, if not proper- ly done, hours will not cook them. Why should onions be always cut in round and very thin rings? use the fibre is thus cut across, and in so cutting them, whether for frying or for making sauce, ey are rendered very tender when cooked. Wi turpips and carrots it is just the e same; neither of the three should be split or cut in ag caer way. ‘by shoul Heteeed Bever be boiled with foda—only in boiling water and salt? Be- cause sley, having vo oil in it, would be spoiled with soda, and all flavor would be extracted.

Becaure boiling takes all the strength from it. Whatever vegetables are to be pickled should first be made soft With boiling water strong with salt and then be well-drained and the vinegar poured over. ‘Why should two ounces of salt and a bit of wasbing soda always be put in the water to boil greens in? Because the salt crisps the greens and flavors them, and the soda extracts the oil, which is greatly injurious to the digesti A REAL CENTENNIAL REMEMBRANCER. Says the Boston Traveler: “In digging a drain on the premises of Jobn Stowell, esq., No. 83 Bow street, Charlestown district, this morning, the workmen unearthed a 6-pound- ercannon ball. It was found at the depth of four feet, encrusted with about three quarter inches of rust. This centennial remembran- cer was bly fircd from one of the Brit- ish frigates stationed between and Charlestown at the time of the landing of the British troops in their attack on our in- trenchments on Bunker Hill, on the morning of the 17th of June, 1775.” CHARGE OF ABDUCTION BY A LAWYER — Adolph Bessie, a lawyer, residing corner of Hart street and Broadway, Brooklyn, was arrested last night on ® warrant issued by Justice Delmar, on complaint of Charies Stores, of Pennsylvania, who charges him with abducting his daughter, Teresa Stores, aged sixteen years, and keeping her against the will of her father.
