Small Pcarches en water souchet. Cut four small fishes in halves, having previously taken off all the scales, and proceed precisely as for Flounders en water souchet. Small Pearches frits au heurre. Scale and well dry six Pearches, and make incisions here and there on each side of them ; then put a quarter of a pound of butter into a saut^-pan, season your fishes with pepper and salt, put them in t'.ie saut^-pan and fry them gently, turning them carefully; when done, dress them on a napkin, garnish with parsley, and serve without sauce. In my opinion, they are much better cooked in this way than boiled or stewed ; large fish may also be done this way, but they require more butter, and must cook very slowly. HOW TO COOK CARP.

Then pour upon your Carp as much claret wine as will only cover him , and season your claret well with salt,
