Flour FROM GRowN WHEAr-We
have seen a receipt for making bread
from -four manufactured from grown
wheat. The sproutiDg is said to de-
stroy the alchoholic quality of the grain,
so that its life is gone, while the nu tri-
tious quality remains. 1t is affirmed,
therefore, that if q gill of alchohol is
added to the dough in kneading that il
will make excellent bread. This sounds
hollow, but there may be something In
it.-Craaoford Democrat
We have been informed by lady who
has tried the above that it works to
charm. The bread was made from
from -four manufactured from grown
wheat, and when kneading the dough,
It presented a soft, sticky appearance,
and could not be worked. On adding
4 gill of pure alchohol, it was easily
worked, and made as good bread as one
would wish to eat. We have eaten of
the bread for some days, and think it
excellent. This recipe will be found
invaluable to housckeepers, especially
Turing this w Gyeenvilzc Re
rieac.

Mllstellaneous.
T II e D q e L.

From the commencement of our Revo-
luton to the year 1915, period of for,
ty years, England was engaged in war
without any intermission. These wars
| were with the thirteen colonies, or Uni
ted States, France, Spain, Holland, the
French Republic, Buonaparete, and
again with the United States some
times singly, sometimes with several of
these nations at once.
The battle of Waterloo was fought
on the 18th of June, 1915. That year
the army of England amounted to three
hundred thousand men, and in lS45, al
though she had enjoyed thirty years of
peace, her standing army was still one
hundred thousand strong.
In the time of peace one would think
that such host of soldiers could not be
required for any purpose; and they prob
ably are not; but it is the policy of
governments as that of England to keep
as many men in the services as possible.
To say nothing of other purposes, it is
easy, in an army of hundred thousand
soldiers, to have four or five thousand
commissioned officers, who generally be-
long to the class of gentlemen-n class
that is found to furnish tie most useful
and the most submissive slaves to those
who feed them. The most useful, be-
cause, being well born, well educated,
AMI well connected, they are very capa-
BILE in themselves, and very influential
in others; and most submissive because
they are so well paid, and have no other
service than pnblic Office which it suits
them to except.
The army of England is crowded with
officers, who enter it merely as trade
or profession, by which they may get
living. A horrid business it is, indeed,
to undertake to do any killing of men
anywhere the government may command
without asking any questions, nor know
ing or caring whether it is right or
wrong! But SO It Is, when rlgntiy ur-
derstood and yet we must not be sur
prised if we find, once in while, a man
too good for such trade, engaged in it,
for it is generally thought honorable,
even the most honorable of all profes-
sions, and but few stop to enquire if it
is also right
My story will introduce the sort Of
man that is an exception to the rule.
To be perfectly candid with my read
ers, must inform them that have for
gotten the names of the persons am to
tell about. The precise place where it
has also escaped me, but I
am sure it was somewhere in ireland
and the exact date is gone, too-but
know it was after 1915, and before the
year 1885, for that was the time
heard it,

Yellow Fever at Norfolk.

The accounts from this afflicted CITY
continue to be of the saddcst character.
There is no abatement of the terrible
disease, and if the number of cases d.
miuish, it is only from lack of victims
In Norfolk, since the sickness and death
of the Mayor, the city government has
been at an end. The stores are all
closed, the market houses deserted, and
out Of population of 10000, there are
only about 5000 left, of which number
there are only 5000 whites. All work
being suspended, the negroes hold relig-
ious meetings at their churches every
day. It is also stated that malaria is
such that all the people, even those who
are apparently healthy, look sallow. and
their eyes partake of a yellow hue. In
burying the dead there is no ceremony.
Before the poor sufferer has breathed his
last his coffin is spoken for, and arrange
ments are made for his interment.-
Within an hour or two after the breath
has left the body, It is placed in a rude
stained coffin, deposited in the hcarse
and driven off by negro to the grave
yard, frequently without single rela-
tive or friend to see it deposited in the
grave. In some cases the hearses take
three cofins piled on each other to the
Potter's field.
Several eminent physicians from
abroad are doing what they can in Nor
folk to arrest the pestilence. A few
physicians and nurses have arrived from
New Orleans. Several have gone from
Baltimore, and from Philadelphia four
male nurses, three Sisters of Charity,
three physicians and three apothecaries. |
So thoroughly have Norfolk and |
Portsmouth become infected with the
disease, that there is little hope Of ar
resting its ravages until frost comes.

The Poor and the Rich.

The honest, hard working part of our
community, however much they must
excel them in intelligence and refine
ment, are looked upon by some purse
proud would be aristocrats, as entirely
beneath their notice, but these are only
mere exceptions. Ifa person shows
himself but worthy, he is here welcomed
by the good and the great, whatever be
his origin; and if his birth be alluded
to, it is not with scorn and contempt,
but with admiration and respect, for
having surmounted the obstacles in his
pathway, We oftentimes see the poor
mans son rising early, before the labors
of the day can call him forth, while 9TH
ers are eagerly pursuing pleasure or are
reposing in the arms of Morpheus. The
flashed cheek and fire in his eye shows
the firm resolve and high purpose
Those intellectual powers which he has
cultivated SO long and faithfully, have
well repaid his care and pains. Wealth
and influence are his. He may fill a
commanding place in the pulpit, or per-
haps charm with his eloquence the null
titude that throng the hall of our Nation
al Congress. If his voice is on the
right he may exert an influence which
will be left by his country long after
'' life's battle has been fought" and he
has rested from his labors.

An Ill USED MAN.--Smithers was
telling us of some of his trials. He had
been shipwrecked once, was burned out
twice, and had to pay the notes Of three
of his friends for whom he had endorsed,
fell through a man-trap in the sidewalk
and broke leg, was arrested by the
Sheriff of his marriage for a debt he
didn't owe, but all these evils he bore
without murmuring. The great trial of
his life was that his wife wouldn't let
him smoke in the parlor.
