"He Has an Ax to Grind."
Franklin Bays: Whoa I was a little boy, I
remember, one cold, winter's morning, I
was accosted by a smiling man with an ax
on his shoulder.
"My pretty boy," faid he, "has your
father a grindstone?"
"Ves,sir,"saldl.
"You are a lino fellow," f.ald ho. "Will
you let mo grind an ax on it?"
"1'leased with tho compliment of "a fine
little follow," "Oh, jos, sir," I answered;
"it is down in tho shop."
"And will you, my mau,"Haid ho, patting
mo on my head, "get me a littlo hot unler."
How could I reiuso? I ran and soon
brought a kettlo full.
"How old aro you, and what's your j

reply. "I am suro you'ro ono of tho finest
lads that over I havo seen. Will you just
turn a few minutes ior mo?"
Tickled with tho llattery, Ilko n fool I
went to work, and bitterly did I rue tho day.
It was a now ax, and I toiled and tugged
till I was almost tired to death. Tho school
bell rang and I could not get away. My
hands wore blistered, and it was not half
ground. At length, howover, the ax was
sharpened, and the man turned to me
with
"Now, yU littlo rascal, you've played the
truant; scud to school, or you'll catch ill"
Alasi thought I, it ni hard enough to
turn a grindstone this cold day, but now to
bo called a littlo rascal, was too much. It
mink (loop in my mind, and often hao I
thought of it .since. When I bee a merchant
ovor pollto to his customers, begging them
totakon littlo binndy. and throwing his
goods on tho counter, thinks I, that man has
an ax to giind.
When I see a man flattering tho people,
making great prolossions of attachment to
liberty, who is in private lifo a tyrant,
mothluks, look out, good people, thai fellow
would sot you to turning grludslonos.
When I sou a man hoistod into oillco by
party sphlt, without a single qualification to
render him either respectable or useful,
aiasi motuiiiKs, deluded people, you nio
doomed ior a season to turu.tho grindstono
Jor a booby.
Ed. Faiimuii: In tho Fakmkk of tho
ICth of Dec, I road an article from Mrs.
Ella A. Ilibbs, wishing that some ono
of your readers would give a recipe for
making yeast bread. As I think that
good yeast is tho first thing essential in
making f,ood bread I will give a recipe
for yeast, first:
Yi:ast. 1'aro six large potatoes; put
them in a porcelain or bright tin vevel,
with a small handful of hups (Oregon or
California hops are the best) in a thin
niu'-lin bair; pour on them two quints
of boiling water, boil one halt nour;
then mash tho potatoes and pour on
(hem tho hop-water they were boiled
In. ...11 Am. in nimi'iil nrmcir. nun ti'.l-
name?" continued ho, without waiting for a 'f, in ' wlion milk-warm. add
one fcacupful lieMi yeast, and sot away
to raise; when light, add ono teaspoon-
ful salt. This ycust is not good until it
i two days old. Bottle and keep in a
cool place.
Jiu:ai). To make bread from this
yeast: Take one tcacupful of yeast to
ono nuart of warm water; thicken with
Hour for a sponge tho night beioro you
want to bake. Sot where it will keep
warm; In tho morning, when light, add
two tea'-noon fills salt; make into bread,
(not too stiiT but so that it will work
well) mold well and sot where it will
keep warm till it is perfectly light;
then mold again and make into loaves;
raise again, and when it is puffy urdor
tuts lingers it is light enougn to dukc.
Jlako at least one hour, in a moderately
hot oven. This will make at least tlneo
largo loaves. Never use soda in yeast
hi cad. r
J)nn;i) Vka vr. Take one large hand
ful of good hops, Douron thorn two qK
boiling wato-jboilthem till the strength
is all out of the hops; then take one
pint of sifted Hour; place in an earthen
or bright tin v.ssjol, and pour the boil
ing hop-water on tho Hour and set
away to cool; add one good coll'eo cupful
of iresli yeast and set away to raise;
when perlcctly light stir Iu two-thiuls
corn meal and the remainder Hour, till
still" enough to make into cakes with
tho hand; lay tho cakes on a cloth
where the wind will blow on them:
turn them every day till dry. This
yeast will keep good one year U carols
taken in making it, when tho weath
er is dry and warm in tho Spring, and
it is always handy for farmers' wives to
start what is termed "wet yeast" with.

Tho Wheat Market.
Tho latest priyato advices wo have show
that Wheat was 2 lo per cental, at San
Francisco; that touuago was very abuudant,
so much so that vessels were unable to got
au offer at 2 por tou to Liverpool, Wo give
dispatches of recent date quoting tho MaiL
Lane Jlqtuss, showing 11 decided advance
in Wheat at Liverpool, which is independent
of war rumois, as tho aspect ot European
affairs has, oflate, been rather pacific, than
otherwise. It is evident that there is an
honest demand for breadslulls that causes
this adauco.
Tounago Is also abuudant at Portland,
vessels having been chartered at low figures,
so low as XI 3s to i 5s, and It Is even
thought somo vossels would accept 2 in
proforeuio to leaving tho Columbia river in
ballast, which is probablo to happen.
heat quotations at X'ortlandaro nominal

would bo given lor round lots, as wo know
that Jl.tfJ'i per bushel wai ottered here in
Saloin two days ago, aud we have reason lo
think that $1.03 would havo been paid, if it
could havo been accepted. We nlsokuow
that for a round lot of 15,000 bushels in storo
at Independence a prlco was ollered that was
considered above tho market.
Wheat has mostly passed out of first hands,
which may bo inferred from the fact that tho
highest whoat receipt at balem Mills is 250
bushols, and tho total unsold wheat in storo
Is not over 3,000 bushula, while at tho Far
mors' Warehouse tho total uusold stored
wheat Is -ICO bushels , in lots of 200 bushels

The waut of rain is severely felt in Califor

from the long continued dry weather. The
young grass that sprang up with the early
rains of October is dead again; summer

they can have rains soon the harvest of the
