HREAD.

Some old Lexiconist has said that bread
is the "staff OF life" Ii is certain that
what We call bread is the principal sup
port Of life. II is what every one eats
more than any thing else to sustain bis
physical constitution. When properly
made, it is The greatest possible luxury,
but when unskillfully made it is delete
rious in every particular. Bread, whether
Of wheat, corn or rye, is delicious. If it is
good bread, but the practice now almost
universally adopted of putting in alkalies,
auch as salaratus, soda, &c, in such guam
titles that the pure white corn meal and
flour smells with the poisonous compound,
is absolutely criminal. There should be a
law against this, and the cook who SO de-
stroys the nutritive qualities of corn and
wheat, should be punished by fine and i'm
prisonment. To dismiss him as cook, is
not enough-he should be punished for his
audaciiy and want of skill To think fol
one moment that the white pure corn and
wheat, nutritious as it comes from the
earth, warmed into life by bright sun
beams. and ripened by the dews and rains
should be SO poisoned by unskillful cooks
is indeed lamentable.
We write feeliugly on this subject, fol
we have too often had our appetite turned
and our stomach made to pay the penalty

is becoming the rule-the exception is har,

this greatest luxury. and the good old day
when pure, white, delicious bread wa
placed en- the table, is only remembered a
one of the things that were.

u At the Democratic Club meeting on
Friday evening last, the ball was opened
by Mr.. Jenckes. Mr.. Jenckes is young
man-an amiable young man-but unlike
the amiable young men you read about in
the Sunday School books, he has departed
from his fathers faith. His speech remin,

of those pretty, innocent, harmless little
speeches which only young men can write

Mr.. Hanna followed with a regular or
thodox Democratic speech, and our read
ers know what that means. A eulogy OF
Henry Clay. followed up by charging that
Parker and Phillips are the leaders of the
Republican party. His manner of walk
ing into Seward reminded US of the Amer
lean eagle chawing up his cage. We were
glad to know that Seward was not present
to witness the terrific manner in which he
was torn from end to end.
Mr.. Hanna was followed by Mr.. Cooker.

political problem of the age in manner
that would have surprised and taken abacI
all the great statesmen who have laborec
to solve it ever since the formation Of tn,
Government. But we all know that Mr.
Cookery knows how to do these things
and it is only necessary to say that thii
was done in his usual able and statesman
like style. He closed by exhorting th,
