The Democrats Of he fifth Congressional District
Of Missouri have nominated Judge John F. Ryland
in Favor Of Fas Meat.
DR.. DlxOS, in a afe number Of the Ssasbsl. in an
article on ''Diet," assumes that the use Of oil
would decrease ths victims Of consumption nine
tenths, and this Is the whole secret Of the use Of
cod-liver oiln The following is a summary Of Oh
ssrvstiOns On this subject made By Dr. HooKaR:
/ OF all the persons between the ages Of fifteen
and twenty-five years, more than one-ffth cannot
eat fat meat
, Of persons at the age Of forty five, all except
ing less than one in ffty hsbitually use fat meat
OF persons who. betWeen the ages Of fifteen
and tWenty-iEo, avoid fat meat, q few acquire an
appetite fer il, and live q good old age, while the
greater portion die with phh sis before thrty FIVE.
OF persons dying with phtbisis between the
ages Of twelve and forty five, nine-teuths at least
have never used fat meat.
Most individuals who avoid fat meat also use little
this want, in part st least BY free use Of those
articles, and also milk, eggs and saoehsrine sub
stances Butthey constitute an imperfect substitute
for fat meat without which, sooner or later, the
body is almost sure to show the effects Of deficient
oalori6oation.

We find in our Louisville exchanges the following
dispatch from Washington under date Of the 18th

The British aggressions resolution, adopted by
the Senate, conclude that the recent Outrages re-
quire, in the judgment Of the Senate such unequiv

sending naval force into the infested seas, with
orders protect all vessels Of the United States on

additional legislation should be supplied in aid Of
the Executive power viii make such protection
