VALUABLE RECIPES.
WATER PROOF FOR LEATHER .- Take lin- seed oil 1 pint, yellow wax and white tur- pentine each 2 ozs. Burgundy pitch 1 oz., meit and color with lampblack.
To KEEP CIDER SWEET .- Put into each barrel, immediately after making, % 1b. ground mustard, 2 oz. salt and 2 oz. pulver- ized chalk. Stir them in a little cider, pour them into the barrel, and shake up well.
AGUE CURE .- Procure 11 table-spoons of fresh mandrake root juice. (by pounding) and mix with the same quantity of molas- ses, and take in three equal doses, 2 hours a part, the whole to be taken 1 hour before the chill comes on. Take a swallow of some good bitters before meals, for a couple of weeks after the chills are broken, and the cure will be permanent.
CURE FOR SALT RHEUM OR SCURVY .- Take of the pokeweed, any time in sum- mer ; pound it ; press out the juice; strain it into a pewter dish; set it in the sun till it becomes a salve-then put it into an earth- en mug; add to it fresh water and bees' wax sufficient to make an ointment of com- mon consistency ; simmer the whole over a fire till thoroughly mixed. When cold, rub the part affected. The patient will al- most immediately experience its good ef- fects, and the most obstinate cases will be cured in three or four months. Tested .- The juice of the ripe berries may be pre- pared in the same way.
SUPERIOR PAINT-FOR BRICK HOUSES .- To lime whitewash, add for a fastener, sul- phate of zinc, and shade with any color you choose, as yellow ochre, Venetian red, etc. It outlasts oil paint.
-
FELONS .- Stir 1 oz. of Venice turpentine with & tea-spoonful of water, till it looks like candied honey, and apply by spreading upon cloth and wrapping around the finger. If not too long delayed will cure in 6 hours.
A poke root poultice is also said to be a sure remedy.
WATER-PROOF BLACKING AND HARNESS POLISH .- Take two and a half ounces guin shellac and half a pint of alcohol, and set in a warm place until dissolved; then add two and a half ounces Venice turpentine to neutralize the alcohol ; add a tablespoon- ful of lampblack. Apply with a fine sponge. It will give a good polish over oil or grease.
MosQUITOs .-- To get rid of these tormen- tors, take a few hot coals on a shovel, or a chafing dish, and burn upon them some brown sugar in your bed-rooms and parlors. and you effectually banish or destroy every mosquito for the night. .
CHEAP OUTSIDE PAINT .- Take two parts (in bulk) of water lime ground fine, one part (in bulk) of white lead ground in oil. Mix them thoroughly, by adding best boiled liu- seed oil, enough to prepare it to pass through a paint mill, after which temper with oit till it can be applied with a common paint brush. Make any color to suit. It will last three times as long as lead paint, and cost not one-fourth as much. IT Is SUPERIOR.
CURE FOR A COUGH .- A strong decoction of the leaves of the pine. sweetened with loaf sugar. Take a wine-glass warm on go- ing to bed, and half an hour before eating three times a day. The above is sold as a cough syrup, and is doing wonderful cures, and it is sold at a great profit to the manu- facturers.
How to Judge a Horse.
A correspondent. contrary to old maxims, undertakes to judge the character of a horse by outward appearances, and offers the fol- lowing suggestions, the result of his close observation and long experience :
If the color be light sorrell, or chestnut. his feet, legs and face white, these are marks of kindness. If he is broad and full between the eyes, he may be depended on as a horse of good sense, and capable of be- ing trained to anything.
As respects such horses. the more kindly you treat them the better you will be treat- ed in return. Nor will a horse of this de- scription stand a whip, if well fed.
If you want a safe horse, avoid one that is dish-faced. He may be so far gentle as not to scare; but he will have too much go- alead in him to be safe with everybody.
If you want a fool. but a horse of great hortom, get a deep bay, with not a white hair about him. If his face is a little dish- ed. so much the worse. Let no man ride such a horse that is not an adept in riding -they are always tricky and unsafe.
If you want one that will never give out, never buy a large, overgrown one.
A black horse cannot stand heat, nor & white one cold.
If you want a gentle horse, get one with more or less white about the head; the more the better. Many persons suppose the parti-colored horses belonging to the circuses, shows, &c .. are selected for their oddity. Bat the selections thas made are on account of their great docility and gen- tleness.
Measurement of Hay in the Mow or Stack .- It is often desirable, where conveniences for weighing are not at hand, to purchase and sell hay by measure- ment. It is evident that no fixed rule will answer in all cases, as it would require more cubic feet at the top of a mow than at the bottom. The general rule adopted by those who have tested it. is 7h cubic feet of x.5./ Timothy hay, as taken from mow or bottom of stack. The role may be varied for upper part of mow or stack according to pressure.

MONROE COUNTY.
MONROE COUNTY.
THIS COUNTY was formed from Ontario and Gen- esee, February 23d, 1821. It lies on Lake Ontario, north- west of the center of the State. It is centrally distant 202 miles from Albany and contains 682 square miles. The sur- face is generally level or slightly undulating, with a moderate inclination towards the lake. East of the Genesee River the surface is somewhat broken, and drift hills of a moderate ele- vation appear. The shore of the lake is low for the most part, but in some places rises in bluffs from ten to thirty feet in hight, and slopes gradually to the Lake Ridge, a distance of from five to eight miles from the lake. The summit of the Ridge is 160 feet above the lake, and from it the surface declines slightly towards the south for a short distance, and then rises gradually to the summit of the Mountain Ridge, which is from one to three miles distant and 310 feet above the shore of the lake. The surface south of this is gently rolling, and the ridges extend in a north and south direction. The summits of the ridges along the south border are about 400 feet above the lake and from 600 to 700 above tide.
Genesee River is the principal stream and flows in a north- easterly direction through the County in a valley from half a mile to two miles in width. The ridges which border the valley are from thirty to sixty feet high. At Rochester the river flows over the limestone which forms the Mountain Ridre, in a series of rapids and falls, the highest of which is ninety-six feet. About two and a half miles below Rochester are two other falls, one of twenty-five feet, and a short dis- tance below another of eighty-four feet. From this point the
64
MONROE COUNTY.
river is navigable to the lake. The principal tributaries of the Genesee from the west are Oatka and Black Creeks, and Honeoye Creek from the east. The other principal streams of the County are Sandy, Little Salmon, Salmon, Button- wood and Long Pond Creeks, west of the Genesee, and Iron- dequoit and Four Mile Creeks east of the river, all flowing into Lake Ontario or some of its bays. Nearly all of these streams, in their passage from the central parts of the County to the lake, flow over the limestone ridge in a succession of falls, forming an abundance of water-power. The principal bodies of water are Lake Ontario, which forms the north boundary of the County, Irondequoit and Braddocks Bays, and Buck, Long and Cranberry Ponds, all indentations from Lake Ontario and connected with it by narrow and shallow straits. Irondequoit Bay is a narrow, deep body of water extending inland about six miles from the lake shore. A deep valley extends south, several miles from its south ex- tremity, forming the deepest ravine along the north border of the State. It is supposed by some that Genesee River formerly flowed through this valley, as there are indications of the action of a more powerful agent than the stream now flowing through the valley, which has been partly filled with drift deposits.
The Medina sandstone, which extends in a broad belt along the lake shore, is the lowest rock in the County. A thin stratum of the Clinton group lies next above this and almost disappears upon the west border of the County. The highest rock is the Niagara group, which forms the abrupt terrace of the Mountain Ridge. This rock is extensively quarried in various parts of the County, and forms an excel- lent building material. The underlying rocks in the south part of the County belong to the Onondaga salt group, which yield salt springs in various localities, at some of which salt was formerly manufactured. Lime is extensively manufac- tured from the Niagara limestone, and from the rocks in the south part large quantities of plaster and water-lime are ob- tained. A large part of the County is covered with drift de- posits, which for the most part assume the character of ridges and rounded hills, many of them rising from fifty to one hun- dred feet in hight, above the general surface. Calcareous tufa and marl are found in several localities, forming inval- uable elements of fertility to the soil. Iron ore in small quantities is found in various places associated with the Clin-
--

MONROE COUNTY.
ton group. The soil of the County is generally fertile. Along the lake shore it consists of a red, clayey and gravelly loam, derived from the disintegration of the Medina sand- stone. Towards the Genesee River the soil contains more sand, and in some places clay, formed from the disintegration of the Clinton and Niagara shales. In the south part lime and gypsum are important elements of the soil, making it valuable for raising wheat.
Agriculture is the leading pursuit. Wheat is raised to some extent, but not as much as formerly, barley, corn and oats being raised more extensively. Fruit is raised extensive- ly in most parts of the County, all the varieties adapted to this latitude flourishing here. In the vicinity of Rochester are some of the most extensive nurseries in the State. Dairy- ing, stock and wool raising are receiving considerable atten- tion. The manufacture of flour, machinery, edge tools, cars and a great variety of other articles of wood and of iron, are carried on extensively in Rochester and vicinity. The ca- nals and railroads centering at Rochester give it facilities for an extensive trade which is carried on with the surrounding country. The river is navigable for about five miles from Lake Ontario, affording water facilities for a limited amount of commerce in that direction.
The County Scat is located at Rochester. The first coun- ty officers were Elisha B. Strong, First Judge ; Timothy Barnard, Judge ; Joseph Spencer, Assistant Justice ; James Seymour, Sheriff; Nathaniel Rochester, Clerk, and Elisha Ely, Surrogate. The first Court House was built in 1821, soon after the organization of the County. It was removed to give place to the present structure in 1852. The present Court House is situated upon Buffalo street, corner of South Fitzhugh, near the center of the city. It is a commodious brick structure with an Ionic portico, supported by four mas- sive pillars. The building is surmounted by a dome 150 feet high. It contains the usual rooms for courts and county officers, and for the city officers. The corner stone of this building was laid with appropriate ceremonies. Among the contents of the stone were deposited copies of the first and last City Directories, copies of each of the newspapers, a bill of each of the banks, samples of United States coin, a phial of the first gold dust found in California, and various articles representing the state of the arts at the time.
