cogent and reasonable. In the old churoh days, when the Lenten fast was serious matter, the ohuroh bell summoned the people to shrove, shrift, or confession on the) day before Ash Wednesday, as a preparative to Lent. And either the same bell, or another ringing on the same day, set the housewives busily to work, to use np all the dripping, lard, and grease in the house; pancakes wero made in store, nd a jollification ensued, to mark the transition from feasting to fasting. Such, it seems, was the origin of the pancake bell. And who invented HOT OBOSS BUNS Here is another query, another crotohet, relating to dainty bread.

Ootgrave, one of our old lexicographers, spoke of "a kind of hard crusted bread, whose loaves do somewhat resemble the Dutch bunnes of our Rhenish wine house." Now this is a noteworthy point; for the hard crusted bread, taken with wine, more resembles wino biscuits or wine rusks than soft buns. There are Scotch bnns, made and eaten chiefly at Christmas, with a very hard orost, something like those apparently here adverted to a soft English bun would be rather called a cookie, or cooky in the north. Some buns, containing coriander seeds, and eaten with honey, resemble (though larger) the altar bread used in some countries in former ages. The hot cross bun, however, is admittedly associated with the most solemn day in the Church calendar. There was at one time a superstition that bread baked on GOOD FEIDAY possessed special virtues: some of it was kept all through the year, under a belief that a few gratings of it in water would be a remedy for many bodily diseases.

In England the purchase of buns hot from the' oven is one of tho recognised modes of observing Good Friday. The Dun is somewhat spicy inside, and has a sugary glaze on the top, with a cross marked or stamped thereon. Whether it is eaten hot or cold, with butter or without, toasted or untoasted, each family decides according to circumstances; but the itinerant venders (not so numerous now as of yore) aU AMERICAN INSTITUTE FAIR NEW YORK, Brooklyn Invention EDSON'S RECORDING STEAM GAUGE, now for tho first time on exhibition, the OBJECT OF ATTRACTION asriskB to life and proporty will bo greatly reduoed when these IuBtrumonts are used on our Ferry boats and other passenger carrying steamers. no4 21 OOTH'S THEATRE.

JaMly Who first invented muffins, and who gave them that name? There is no subject so trifling that men need despair of getting something curious out of it in the way of information, if they only seriously set themselves to work. If we find that muffin is not in the early editions of Johnson's Dictionary, there is a sort of negative evidence which may induce us to search further. Technologically speaking AN ENGLISH MUFFIN is made of flour, yeast, salt and water, without any sugary or buttery addition; separate portions of the dough made with these ingredients are allowed to rise, or ferment, and are baked on a heated iron plate, being turned to allow each surface a fair share of heat. A muffin in, therefore, a small loaf of leavened bread, dainty or fancy bread. Now, in every corner of the civilized world cakes or flat loaves of some such character are to be met with; therefore, the first origin of the thing itself is hopeless to search for.

Given, the meal, the water, the hot iron plate, and you may make your cake in numberless ways by varying the kind of corn, by using or omitting yeast, and by adding any among a multitude of other ingredients. One form of SCOTCH BOON or scone, we ore told, is made out of oat grains steeped in water till they ferment, then boiled to a paste, and then poured on a griddle to bake. In Holland there is a kind of cake sold at booths in fair time, made of flour and water, fermented for three hours, poured on heated tongues grooved with deep furrows, clasped in the iongs, and kepta short time until bakedj they come out shaped something like the portcullis of an ancient castle, and are eaten with, sugar or honey. The foolish method of cutting open muffins, toasting and buttering them, is not everywhere orthodox; in America they are eaten hot from the oven, without toasting or buttering. MOBOCCO MUFFINS.

Mr. Urquhart, when traveling in Morocco about twenty years ago, was surprised to find something like our very laminar mumn, ana even thefamilier muffin bell. "Tho day we landed at Kabat," said Mr. Urquhart, "we heard a little tinkling bell through the street, just like the four o'clook muffin bell in London. One of the party asked if it was tea time among the Moors and the others laughed, thinking it a good joke.

There was no joke in the case, These cakes are just as common there as within the sound of Bow bells ihey were served for breakfast in Bar bary when Queen Elizabeth's maids of honor had for their beefsteaks and ale, or herring and bread and eheese. It is immersed in butter (by the Moors), or in oil (by tho Jews), and then dipped in honey wo presume after the baking. As to the ORIGIN OF THE NAME, one theory is that mou pain, soft bread in old French, has become gradually changed to muffin. But Mr. Urquhart would not accept so simple an explanation as this.

He went back to very ancient days indeed, and found that Athenxus made mention of the Phoenician maphula, a kind of cake baked on a hear or griddle from whence come other deriva tives, somewhat in this order: Muphula, mu fula, mufun, muffin. Then there were mun phius and the Hebrew moph, both brought into requisition. Moreover, Mr. Ui'quhartranged over the whole scope of the anoient wodd, and of oriental countries in modern times, in search of cakeB that could with any degree of reasonableness be compared with muffins. He met with the sfen, the lackmar, the bckmaringox, the diebroddapson, the gassi cadaef, tho del cadaef, the youfka, tho kuladj, the khebes, and the ntidah; and he discoursed about them all in a manner that would gratify any murEii uiau v.

minu. THE CETJMFET, 08 Vhe slim and slender sister of the muffin, is always associated with it by the bakers and dealeis; though differing somewhat in character, seeing that, while muffins are made of dough, crumpets are made of batter. The batter consists of fine flour, yeast, and milk, or (in inferior kinds) water; it is poured into a shallow, circular, heated iron pan of suitable dimensions, and baked. S8me authorities opine that orunipet; comes from the French crumpate, a pa3te made of fine flour, slightly baked; ond that the first syllable, crum, may possibly have something to do with the crinkled or crumped appearance of the surface. Indeed, crum is nearly the form of anAnglo Saxonwordforcrinkled.

Tne Spaniards have crumpets, but call them by a very different name, bonueloa. Who first made PANCAKES, and what is the pan cake bell? Here is another dainty bread question, which leads up to results quite as curious as those relating to muffins. An English pancake is not bread, it parta'ies rather of the nature of pastry. Some say that the first pancakes were made before the invention of ovens, and that they simply belong to the general family of flat cakes, baked on hot iron plates, or in iron shallow pans. Very nearly five hundred years ago, there were pancakes, made in England under the name of coma dores, which must have been toothsome aud tempting tie flour was mixed with fig3, raisins and wine, and the cakes were fried in oil.

But the specialty of punoakes in England is the celebration; and. sW ft iSg beU els in tne loreoon of thaj. Therfl meaning here, no doubt, if wo Poll fl rml fofl.m it. Two enturies and a half ago, or thereabouts, there vu.T .1.1.1...... was a quaint writer known as Taylor the Water poet, who had his little biting satire against everything and everybody.

Pancakes, as well as pancake makers and eaters, came in for a share of his notice. He says that on Shrove Tuesday, "when the clock strikes elever which (by the help of a knavish sexton) is eorjisionly before nine, there is a bell rung balled the pancake bell, the sou2 whereof makes thousands of people distractoa, SC? forgetful of either manners or humanity, fhen there is a thing called wheaten flour, which the cooks do mingle with water, eggs, spice, and other tragicul, magical enchantments; and then they put it by little and little into a frying pan of boiling suet, where it makes a confused dinned hissing (like the Lernean snakes in the reeds of Acheron), until at last, by the skill of the cook, it is transformed into the form of a slao jack, called a pancake, which ominous incantation tho ignorant people do devour most greedily." Certainly the people did, and do, devour the pancakes willingly, if Uoi greedily thoy by no means them as ominous incantations. Eleven o'clock, too, has still something to do with this matter. In many part3 of the centre and north of England, the ohurcJl bell rings out at eleven o'clock on Shrove TueJay Such was the case at Doncaster old church, beforo it was burned in 1853, and such may possibly he the case in the new church. In oil these instances it is called THE PANCAKE BELIi.

In some towns it rings in a holiday for the apprentices, in others for inhabitants. There is one parish in the north where all the apprentices whose indentures have recently oxpired assemble in the belfry steeple, and in turn ring the bell the sexton receiving a small foe from eaoh lad; and at the sound of the bell, all the housewives in the parish begin to fry pancakes. Thoro aro schools in which the master, at eleven o'clook on the eventful morning, will say to tho youngsters, "Now, boys, the pancake bell is ringing go home audholp your mothers to make tho pancakes." Nay, even at the dignified WESTMINSTEB SCHOOL, there is a pancake ceremonial on this day. At eleven o'clock on Shrove Tuesday, we are told, one of the vergfers of the Abboy goes into the sohool kitchen, and presently emerges with the head cook, tho latter carrying a thick substantial pancake in a frying pau. Entering the schoolroom, the verger announces "The cook!" Studies are suspended, and all eyes are turned upon the cook, conspicuous by his white apron, jacket and cap.

Advancing to tho centre of tho room, ho approaches tho elevated bar which separates the. upper school from the lower. Twirling the fryiug dextrously round, he aims to throw the pancake over the bar; if he f.H the boys pelt him with books; if ho succeeds, ho Obtains two guineas from tho Abbey fund therefore he mokes a point of succeeding. Then comes a struggle. If tho pancake is broken into fragments during tho scramble "or it, no rowara ensues; out one ooy can 1 rry it off safely to the deanery, the dean him a guinea.

Wo may safely surmise givt pancake is purposely made thick, tha' and strong, to bear this strange or thougli, how about the origin of aU this? deal. Hi. A DANISH LBQEND. popular theory in Mansfield There is a ForeHt, connecting the pan and Sherwood old daya whon the pan6S cakes with the of England.

Every woman Shrove to do this was to bake a pancake on her Tuesday, as a kind of a pledge to fulh. lv vow. Everything took place aooordinft tho pancakes were made on the Tuesday an. the DaniBh tyrants put to death on th hr nesday.

Who these venders are, whence they come, and what is their occupation on the other three hundred and sixty four days of the year, are questions left somewhat in mystery; for the people are evidently not all connected with the baking trade. That the buns are all hot, that they are crossed, that they are "ONE A PENNY, TWO A PENNY," are facts asserted in a very determined and unanimous way by the vendors. There is abundant evidence that the hot cross bun, the Good Friday bun, had a religious origin. In very remote Greek days, sacred cross bread was offered up to the heathen deities as a sacerdotal ceremony the bread was made of fine floor and honey. The bun was usually purchased by the worshippers at the entrance of the temple, taken in by them, and eaten during the sacrificial oere monies.

In timoB somewhat later, but still ancient, a cross was substituted for the bullhorns on the bun and we are told AtHercu laneum were found two small loaves about fivo incheB in diameter, marked with a cross, within which were four other lines. Sometimes the bread had only four lines altogether, and then it was called quadra. The bread had rarely any other mark than a cross, which was on puijCbse to divide and eat it more easily. Similar loaves were discovered in a bakehouse at Pompeii." When the Christian Ohnrch gradually supplanted heathen usages, buns were retained they were made from the same dough as the host or consecrated wafer, but were not themselves oonseoiated they were distributed by the pilest to the people after mass, just be oro dismissal. Less solemn than the wafer or host, they had sail a sacraficial character about them the cross marked on each bun having a new symbolic meaning imparted to it.

And so, by an intelligible process, thoy became specially associated with one particular day in the year. There is still to be seen, in some of our peasants' houses, a bun which hangs from the ceiling from one Good Friday to the next it is regarded as a preservative against evils. mSCIILIiANEOUS ITEMS.
