There is great art in the preparation of gravieS, a greasy! Gil/y gravy spoiling the best cooked fowl or joint. Remove the turkey from the pan; skim off every particle of oil, and leave just as much of the drip- pings as you think will be sufficient to fill your gravy boat ; add to them a little boil- lng Water, and stir in smoothly a table- spoonful of browned flour, made previously into a paste with the smallest quantity of cold water : let the gravy come to a boil as you stir it constantly, and it will be ready to serve. If you choose you can chop the liver and gizzard into rather small pieces and add them to the gravy, instead of send. ing them in the Whole upon the same dish as the turkey. CRANBERRY SAUCE. \Vash one quart of cranberries in cold water, put them in a porcelain kettle, add apint of boiling water, cover, cook five minutes, pass through a. colander, add one pint of granulated sugar, cook one minute and turn out to cool. This mixture should be thick but not jelly as it is a. sauce. When jelly is wanted cook five minutes more. ‘Vash it, and rub the inside with onion : make a. stuffing of light bread crumbs; 3. tablespoonful of butterfin onion peeled and chopped up fine, with a. few sage leaves rubbed up to powder. salt and pepper. A sheet; of paper,should be skewered over the breast-bone well, and when the breast is rising take it 0H. Be careful to serve be- fore the breast falls. The proper accom- paniment for a. roast goose is a brown gravy, nicely thickened and skimmed with a. bowl of apple sauce. For roasting a turkey in an oven or range the time to be allowed is twenty minutes for each pound, with one twenty minutes extra. The fire must be strong and steady throughout the process. The turkey should be nicely cleaned and stuffed ; then put into a baking pan. supported on transverse strips of wood or iron, so as to keep the fowl out of the drippings. No water need be added if the bird be moderately fat. Baste repeatedly ; that is to say, put little bits of butter over the breast and leg: fro ‘ time to time, and, dipping up some of the drippings from the pm, pour it over, so that the whole fowl shall be moistened with them. The seasoning of the stufi‘mg and gravy may be altered, for variety’s sake, from celery and pepper to oysters and pep- per, or oysters, celery and pepper, onion and sage, or savory and thyme; etc. Cranberry Pisaâ€"Stew a. quart. of cram berries, without adding any water. When thoroughly cooked sweeten to taste. Line a. pie plate with rather “ short ” pastry and fill with the stewed cranberries. Add a. cup of sugar. Cut pastry in strips and cross and recmas until it is a. poem in dia- monds and squares. For stuffing, prepare bread in quantity proportioned to the size of the fowl. A twelve-pound turkey will require a quart loaf to stufi‘it properly ; a small hen, only half as much. Break up the bread between your hands, mixing well with atablespoon- ful of butter and seasoning of black pepper. salt, and either a. head of celery, chopped up or a. teaspounful of bruised celery-seed ; make the stuffing hold together with a. little but water, or ,the yolk of an egg and water; stuff the crew as full as possible. One pound of raisins, quarter of a pound of flour, one pound of sueb (chopped fine), one pound of entrants, three-quarters of a pound of stale bread crumbs, half a. nutmeg (grated). quarter of a. pound of brown sugar, five eggs, grated rind of one lemon, half a pint of brandy, half a pound of minced, candied orange peel. Clean, wash and dry the Currants; stone the raisins. Mix all dry ingredients together. Beat the eggs, add them to the brandy. then pour over the dry ingredients and mix thorough- ly. Pack in greased small kettles or moulds (this will make six pounds), and boil six hours when you make it, and when wanted for use serve with hard or brandy sauce. A hen-turkey, weighing from six to seven wounds, furnishes the sweetest and most savory meat, and yet for festive occasions, when a large company is to be served, great one-year-old gobblers, weighing from twelve up to even twenty pounds, are yet in de- mand. After Christmas hen-turkeys, oif fat, are in all cases preferable. Ify must cook a large turkey- -gobbler, parboil lit gently for about an hour, to remove the htrong flavor of the fat before proceeding regularly to stufl’ and roast. Every old housekeeper has on hand in her thumb-worn recipe-book a score or more of Christmas recipes without which Christmas in the family would be a mere tradition so far as the dinner is concerned. But it must be remembered that all housekeepers are not old housekeepers, and that there are hundreds of young aspirants to that title who are just compiling recipe-books and who are lacking for good receipts for holi- day occasions. To these, then, and possibly to all for no good housekeeper is too “ set ” in her ways to take wise hints, these recipes are recommended as being good and past all reasonable chance of failure.

It seldom takes the form of a. course dinner, with entrees served separate- ly, and upon many tables ; even soup, that daily dinner preliminary, is omitted. As a first course oysters are served, or tiny clams. Then appears the turkey royal with its train of vegetable dishes. After all of which begins the dessert, which may on Christmas Day be lengthened out into pie and pudding courses, with ice-cream, fruit, nuts, raisins and coffee for a finale. As a special conces- fion to modern ideas, a. salad may follow the turkey. But this is not required by the olgtime etiquette of the Christmas menu. Follow These Recipes and Hints and Make 11; the Event of the Day- Christmas without Christmas presents would be a dreary affair. But it would be the very height of joility compared with Christmas without the Christmas turkey, the Christmas pies and the Christmam dain- ties. Cranberries, pumpkin pies of plebeian origin. old-fashioned mince pies and very round and black plum puddings must grace the groaning table. “ 7â€"â€" Lâ€"â€"_._ IA... The Ghristmas Dinner. GRAVY FOR ROAST TV‘RKEY. T0 ROAST A TURKEY. T0 ROAST A GOOSE. Black Cakeâ€"Stir halfa pound of soft (not melted) butter and the same weight of fine granulated sugar until the latter is dissolved and mingled with the butter to a soft smooth cream. Beat well the yolks of ten eggs, add to the butter and sugar and stir vigorously,al\vays in the same direction, for ten minutes. Then adil to this mixture one grated nutmeg,& tablespoonful of mace, a. teaspoonful of cinnamon, two tablespoon- fuls of sherry, half a. gill of brandy, and beat well together. Beat the whites of ten eggs until very light but not stiff, and by degrees add three and one-half pounds of ! flour, stirring fast and thoroughly. If the cake is to be kept it should not he frosted. If black cake becomes dry, mix two tablespoonfuls of melted current jelly, a glass of wine, and a. gill of brandy, place the cake, bottom downward in an eartlaern vessel, pour the mixture over, cover.a.nd let it stand four days ; then turn the cake over 16bit; stand until next day, take out; and keep in a cool place. If designed for Christ- mas, ice and put a. wreath of holly around it. Citron Cake.â€"Cut one pound of citron in very thin slices and stand in a Warm room. Beat one pound of butter and one of granu- lated sugar to a. smooth cream. Add the ' well beaten yolks of ten eggs and beat, vig- orously for five minutes, then add one wineglassfu] of sherry and one of brandy. Beat the whites of the eggs very light, but not stiff, and by degrees add three and one- Spread 9. sheet of White paper on a. tray, and on it place the fruit here specified: VVMh and dry one-half a. pound of currants, seed three-fourths of a pound of raisins, blanch and chop fine three-fourths of a. pound of almonds, out in bibs oneefourth of a. pound of figs, shred a. quarter of a. pound each of Citron, candied lemon, and orange peel; mix the fruit Well together, flour thoroughly, and add to the cake mlxtu-re as directed above. Bake four and one-half hours, and let it remain in the tin until nearly cold. In making cake, the materials should all be in readiness, weighed or measured, and the fire and dampers of the range properly regulated before beginning to mix the in- gredients. Black or fruit cake must be baked with a. very slow, steady fire for at least four hours, and the tins lined with double sheets of well-buttered letter paper, which reaches tip half an inch above the aides of the tin to support the paper that should be covered over the top for the first hour. Currants should be washed and almonds blanched in time to become perfectly dry before needed, and all kinds of fruit should be kept in a. warm room the night before it is put in cake. It should also be floured, and added the last thing before the cake is put in the oven,a.nd stirredâ€"preferably with the handsâ€"the least that is possible to mix it evenly through the mass. The following'rule for the crust is simple and relidbls : A generous pint ot flour, one- fourth teaspoonful of making powder, one- hali level teaspoonful of salt, three- fourths of a. cupful of shortening, half butter, half lard. Sift the salt and baking powder with the flour. Have the butter and lard very coid, and chop through the flour until very fine. Mix to a. stiff 'paste with ice-cold water. This makes a. crust that is light and tender, though not so flaky as the cele- brated French paste, which takes so much time and patience to prepare. SOME CHRISTMAS CAKES. The recipes here given have been tested many times, and if the directions are care- fully followed will be found in every way satisfactory. It is well to know a. good puff paste for small pies and patties. Here is a. very ex- celleqtfecipe: # , To five pounds of finely-minced boiled beef use eight pounds of sour, juicy apples, weighed after being pared and cored, then minced fine; one pound of butter, three- fourths of a pound of finely chopped suet, one pint of New Orleans molasses, four pounds of granulated sugar. two ounces each of, ground cinnamon and cloves, a tablespoonful of salt, a. bowl of current jelly, three pounds of seeded raisins, one pound of well-washed English currents. Mix well and set over the fire. When but- ter and jelly have melted add enough sweet cider to moisten well, and cook slowly for acouple of hours. If the meat is canned boiling hot, it may be kept for an indefinite time without using wine or liquor. Many times a. housewife will have in the house fruit syrups that may be substituted for a. portion of the cider, and with good result. The liquor from pickled peaches is excellent for this purpose. A few words as to the preparation of the meat itsell: It will be found juicy and tender if put over the fire in boiling water and cooked very slowly until tender. Shortly before it is done season with salt, and allow it to remain in the liquor in which it is cooked until cold. The mistake is some- times made of placing the meat in cold water. This draws the juices from the meat, making an excellent soup, but leav- ing_the_ meat dry and tasteless. Puflp Pashaâ€"Take half a. cup of butter and half a. cup of lard and chop into this four cups of prepared flour (flour into which four small teaspoons of baking powder have been sifted). Add half a. saltspoon of salt and mix with enough milk to roll the dough out easily. Do not have the dough hard. Handle it. as little as possible. This may be made the basis for all delicate pastry. Rice Pieâ€"Roast a. piece of beef and let it get cold. Chop about. three pounds of it very fine, and put in a. saucepan with a quart of water. Add a slice of fat salt pork chopped, 5 minced onion, a. potato, plenty of seasoning and a dash of allspxce. Boil until all is very tender. While this is cooking boil :1 pint of rice until well done. Stir into it half a can of tomatoes, table- spoonful ofbutter and two hard-boiled eggs. Put the stewed meat into a. deep dish, cover with the rice and tomatoes, sprinkle with pepper and bake until brown.

Yorkshire Pudding.â€"-’1‘o one cup of flour add two cups of milk and one very small teaspoonful of baking powder. Beat two eggs until very light and add to the flour. When the meat is browning pour the batter into the pin) and let cook about twenty minutes. If the kitchen boasts a patent meat-pan, the piece of meat can be lifted upon a slide and left to drip upon the pudding. ‘ A Sofibhern rice pie is a. dainty not often found North.

Said a. retired Eighth street magician: “The old stories about Valentine Vox, the ventriloquist, and others throwing their voices over the heads of &\u audience so i1- lusively as to make every one turn to see an imaginary person are nonsensical. The prerequisite to deception in this branch of art is that the ventriloquist should plac himself between his~ auditors and the im aginary person with whom he holds conver sation.

The bull shook himself, bellowed, pursued his enemy a. few yards, and then went quietly to feeding as if vanquishing a. tiger were an evey day occurrence. A herd of bufl'aloes were grazing on the outskirts of the forest at Soopah, with the herder on guard 11 short distance away. A tiger came out of the forest, and tried by roaring to stampede the herd. The herdsman manifested great bravery. He shouted, beat his heavy quarter-staff 9n the ground, and tried to scare the brute 03', not thinking of his own danger, but of that of his herd.

One of the most remarkable and puzzling stories of somnambulism is related by the London News. The subject was a young ecclesiastic at a seminary. The bishop of the diocese was so deeply interested that he went nightly to the young man’s chamber He saw him get out of bed, secure paper, Compose and write sermons. On finishing a page he read it aloud. When a word dis- pleased him he wrote a. correction with great exactness. The bishop had seen a beginning of some of these somnambulistic sermons, and thought them well composed and correctly written. Curious to ascertain Whether the young man made use of his eyes, the bishop put a card under his chin in such a manner as to prevent him seeing the paper on the table before him, but he still continued to write. Not yet satisfied whether he could or not distinguish differ- ent objects placed before him, the bishop took away the piece of paper on which he wrote and substituted several other kinds at different times. He always perceived the change, because the pieces of paper were of different sizes. When a piece exactly like his own was substituted he used it, and wrote his corrections on the places corresponding to those on his own paper. It was by this means that portions of his nocturnal compositions were obtain- ed. His most astonishlng production was a. piece of music written with great exacti- tude. He used a. cane for a. ruler: The clefs, the flats and the sharps were all in their right places. The notes were all made as circles,aud those requiring it were after- wards blackened with ink. The words were all written below, but once they were in such very large characters that they did not come directly below their roper notes, and, perceiving this, he erase them all and wrote them over again.

The observance of Easter becomes yearly more general, but it; still > v - fallsfar behind The Birth- ' ._.=-day in popularity. Saints’ ‘ " days are practically un- known exceptz to Roman Catholics and to some Episcopalians ; but “from Greenland’s icy mountains to India’s coral strand,” wher- ever the Christian religion has been preach- ed, Christmas is the joy-time of phe yfar._ However little we may have to do, tb little should be done well. There are many reasons for this. ‘To the devout; souls the day commeniorutes the birth of the Peace-bringer, and there is an undercurrent of unspoken joy in their hearts that is not, due to the outward and visible signs of Christmas. So it is, after all, to the children that Christmas is dearest. Next after them it is most loved by those who have never lost the childish heart, those greatly to be en- vied ones who still feel “ Christmas in their bones ” as the holiday comes around, and rejoice in the joy of others more keenly than in their own happiness ; for the true mean. ing of Christmas is lost as soon as the ele- ment of selfishness finds a place in the celebration. Even the children soon learn this, and they are defrauded if this lesson is not early and tenderly brought home to them. They must not be deprived of the joys of giving, and they will not be slow to learn that their merry-making is sweeter and gayer for the thought that by sending happiness into the homes of the needy they have made themselves one with the spirit of the Founder of the feast-day whose whole life was one continuous gift. The sweet solemnity of the thought will not cloud the mirth. It will, if it is rightly taught and apprehended, be the brimming drop in the cup of happiness of old and young. To one or two classes of people Christmas brings little or no joy. The selfish and the solitary shrink from it. To the former its observance would mean a. drain upon purse and sympathies that he does not wish to meet. To the latter it brings contrasts too sharp not to be painful. c"1‘0 the poor it is one of the few bright spots in a long and dreary winterâ€"a season when the well-to-do open their hearts and hands and send bounty into the homes of the hungry. To the childrenâ€"ah, what is it not to the children? It is their golden mile-stone, the landmark from which they measure everything. As soon as they stop looking back to one Christmas they begin to look forward to another. An atmosphere of mysteryâ€"always delightful to a childâ€"en- shrouds the Yuletide. It is more than a. family gathering and a big dinner and prea- sents and candy unlimited. It is the Christ child and Santa. Claus, elves and fairies, singing angels and kneeling cattle, worshiping shepherds and gift-bearing Magi, a Star of Bethlehem and a. manger, “ a. sleighiul of toys and eight tiny reindeer,” all blended in the blissful confusion impos- sible outside of a. child’s brain, that knows not reverence or irreverence, but bestows wonder and love with impartial generosity upon Christian story and pagan myth. THE CHRISTMAS FESTIVAL. Emperor and Army. W. F. Gray has been telling some pisin truths in the Westminster Review about “The Theory and Practice of American Popular Government," which are as worthy of our consideration as that of our neigh~ hours. He makes it pretty evident that in systems of government, as well as in other things, it is not all gold that glitters , and that even our boosted democratic or popu- lar government may turn out to be a de- lusion and a snare. Tyranny, according to his showing, is not confined to any partic- ular form of government, but may be put as real and as oppressive in 8. pure demo- cracy as in an absolute monarchy. The best government is the government that is administered the best, and experience shows that there is no more reason to upset n ‘ wise, patriotic, and upright administration of a democratic, than of an aristocratic or a. monarchical form of government. “Etern- ial vigilance is the price of liberty,” just ‘ as much under the one as under the other of these. And perhaps this perpetual watch- fulness is even more necessary under a. pop- ular form ol government than under any other, because we are ourselves so mixed up with passing events, and are liable to be so blinded by our own prejudice and pas- sion as to be unconsciously fastening the chains upnn ourselves. Mr. Grey. in his article in the West- minster, subjects to a critical examination the description which our American friends are so fond of giving of their govern- mentâ€"a. description which, by the way, is just as applicable to the government of this country as to that of the United Statesâ€"- namely, a “government of the people by the people and for the people ;” and be shown‘ that it will not bear examination either in its application to the theory or the practice of “American popular government." Even in theory, it is not the government of the people by the people. All that it aims at, even when theoretically considered, is the government of the people by a majority, and that not a. majority of the whole people, but of a class. Even in the United States the voting population formslonly about one- fifth of the whole ; and probably the largest majority ever obtained does not represent very much more than one-tenth of the en- tire community, so that nine-tenths of the people really have nothing to do with the government except to pay the taxes and bear the burdens which are imposed upon them by the other tenth ! It is true, indeed, that the Constitution provides for a sort of peaceful evolution,-â€"â€"the people have the power of periodically changing their rulers. And when the state of things becomes utterly unendurable this power is exercised. But even then it is not the whole people, but a. class, that holds this reserved power, and owing to the party organization and party discipline to which they are subject- ed, the only alternative leit to them may be the choice between two evils ; to break loose from one machine is but to fall into the jaws of another: A _ Whatever would such a great country as the United States,do,with its heterogeneous population, and with its vast and complica- ted interests, without the professions: politician? It is true he is an evil, but he is a necessary evil. He is the evil genius of a. form of Government which the people love, for which they are ever prepared to shout, to fight, and if need be, to suder and die, and which they would certainly not change for any other. When it is said that the professional politician is an evil, it is meant that his presence is a departure from the ideal of popular government, and that, however necessary he may be, and ho Never necessary may be the “machine ” which he operates, and with which his power and importance are bound up, his presence has effect of often placing the or- dinary intelligent and honest voter between the devil and the deep sea. What can he; or ten thousand like him do against the machine, or independently of it? If he cannot work under one set of political mana- gers and manipulators, he must submit to the discipline and direction of another set which he may like no better, or else com- pletely efl'ace himself, so far as the public life of his country is concerned. Thus it comes to pass that instead of a government of the people, by the people and for the people, there is a government of the people by the machine and for the machine, or for the professional politicians who run it. When the part which is played by the professional politician is taken into account, the case is seen to be still worse. It is not necessary to say one word against these men. They are a. “ necessary consequence" or at least “an invariable accident" of demo- cratic government. It does not seem pos- sible to dispense with their services so long as purely popular government exists. And in proportion to the diversity of the com- munity and the complexity of the subjects and interests with which the government has to deal. the more necessary does the professional politician become. He is nec- essary to construct the machine, to mend it when it requires mending, to re-adjnst it when re-adjustment becomes necessary, in 3 word, to keep it in repair and keep it running. He has to do with the construc- tion of the party platform, with inventing the party eries and making up the party state; he lives to raise and manage the campaign funds and to see that they are put “ where they will do the most good,” and with his subordinates, who within their sphere are as “ professional and efl‘icient ” as himself, he is to manipulate the “ floaters," whether it be by dividing them into blocks of five, and putting each of these blocks in the hand of a. trusty person, with the necessary funds, who shall be respon- sible for seeing that they all vote, and that they vote our ticket or by some other equal- ly effective plan.
