that worry day in the House Of Represen-

Whereas. on the 81 day of April, 1866,
by the authority and direction of the Pre-
sident of the United States, agricultural
college scrip covering nearly 270. 600 acres,
was issued and delivered to the State of
North Carolina under the act Of Congress
OF July 5, 1862. providing for agricultu-
raj colleges; and whereas by the same au-
thority the General Lan' Office is now pre-
pairing to issue scrip in like manner to the
States of Virginia, Georgia. and Missis-
sippl; and whereas said action of the Pres
ident takes for granted that said States are
restored to their proper constitutional re-
latons to the Union, and are to be rccog-
niz"d in all respects as entitled to the rights
OF the other States of the Union, which
Congress alone can rightfu|Iy determine

Flesh and Vegetable Eating.

To consider man Anatomically, ne Is
decidedly a vegetable eating animal.
He is constructed like no flesh eating ami
nal, but Ike all vegetable eating animals
He has not any claws like the Iion' the
tiger, or the cat, but bis teeth are short
and smooth, like those Of the horse, the
COW, and the fruit eating animals and
hi, hand is evidently intended to pluck
the fruit, and not to seize lis fellsw ami
mails. What animal does man most re-
semble in every respect? The ape tribe;
frnoiferous animals, Doves and sheep,
by being fed On animal food, land they
NAV be, as has been fully proved will
come to refuse their natural food thus 1t
has been with man. On the contrary,
even cats may be brough, up to live OH
vegetable food, SO lhatthey will not touch
animal food, and be quite vigorous and
sleek Such cats will kill their natural
prey JUS. as other cats. but will refuse
them as food.
Man is naturally vegetable es,ing
animal how then could be possibly be
injured by abstinence from flesh? A
man, by way Of experiment, was made 'c
live entirely on animal food after having
oersevered ten days, symptoms Of inclPl
