the military security of the French from
tier, not long since commenced negotia-

purchase of the Grand Duchy and its
incorporation with the French Empire,
but as the Fortress of Luxemburg, which
is one of the strongest Notifications in
Europe, was held by a Prussian garrison,
and the Prussian Government was backed
by the whole of Germany, who
firmly object to the transfer OF the
Duchy to France, the King of Hol
land has withdrawn from any
further negotiations on the subject, and
the French Emperor insists that his

has been deeply wounded and wild

two chairs to be placed at opposite

Mrs. Farrell, one of the respondents,

Alexander then turned to the child

1t costs something to be loyal in
Georgia. The reign of terror would
be as great as at any time during the
war, but for the presence orthe militia
ry. If we accept the tone of the
Democratic press as fair indication
of public sentiment, the disposition
prevails to drive out all men who do
not agree with the vhite majority.
Referring TO the white men who voted
on the Convention question, the Au-
gusta Chronicle & Sentinel says:
"a few scalawags were seen to ap-
preach the polls during the day, most
of them throwing furtive glances to
the right and left, to see if their pres
enee in the ebony crowd was noticed.
We are informed that not few pale
faces sought admission to the polls
through the back door, 70 avoid the
observation of those who they were
ashamed should see them commit
themselves to the negro programme.
We have much less contempt for
man who marches openly and boldly
up 10 the dirty work which the Radi-
cal party requires, than for the Inisera-
bic, cowardly sneak who crdwls
through back alleys and by-ways to
accomplish the same purpose"

Miss Leslie on Slang.

'sThere is no wit, :" saws the author Of the
Behavior Book, ''in a lady to speak of TAX
ing a .snOOze,' instead of a nap-in calling
pantalOOns pants or gentlemen 'gents,-
in saving of a man whose dress is getting
old, that he looks 'seedy, and in allud-
ing 10 an amusing auecdOte, or diverting
incident, to say that it is 'rich.' All slang
words are detestabIe from the lips of Ia
dies. We are always sorry to hear a
young lady use such a word as 'pOlking,'
when she tells of having been engaged in
a certain dance too fashionable not long
since; but, happily, now it is fast going
out, and almost banished from the best
society. To her honor, be it remembered,
Queen Victoria has prohibited the polka
being danced in her preseRce. How can IA
genteel girl bring herself to say, LAST
night was polking with Mr.. Bell, or 'Mr.
Cape came and asked me 20 polk with
him. Its coarse and ill-sOunding name is
worthy of the dance. We have little toll
erance for young ladies, who, having i'll
reality neither wit nor hUmor, set up for
both, and, having nothing of the right
stock to 60 upon, substitute cOarseness and
impertinence mot to say impudence), and
try to excite laughter and attract the at
tention of gentlemen, by talking slang
Where do they get it How do they pick
it up? From low newspapers or vulgar
books .? Surely not from low companions?
We have heard one of these ladies, when
her collar CHANGED to be pinned awry, say
that it was put on drunk, also, that her
bonnet was drunk, meaning crooked on
her head. When disconnected, she was
shoored.' When submitting to thing un-
willingly, she was brought to the scratch ,
Sometimes she did things 'on the sly She
talked of a certain great vocalist singing
like BEAST believed it very smart
and piquant to use these vile expressions.
It is true, when at parties she always had
half dozen gentlemen about her, their curl

good qualities and one who boasted of al
ways having 'lived in society,"" ...-..

a LUDICROUs MIsTAKE.--Hans
Caspar Dachstein, who can not talk
English, but can appreciate the pleas
ures Of married life, rushed into the
Office of the Probate Court, recently, in
search of marriage license. UnIuck-
lily, he encountered a clerk who could
not discourse in German. He at
tempted to make himself understood
by signs, but succeeded only. far
enough to convince the clerk that he
wanted to become full-fedged citi-
zen of the United States. His natur-
alizatiOn papers were made out, and,
armed with these, he hastened on the
wings of love (the wheels of an ex-
press wagOn) to the house where the
bride, the minister and the friends
were anxiOusly awaiting him. Rush
ing in to the minister, he triumphant
ly produced the naturalization papers,
wiped the persPiratiOn from his brow,
and was ready to be married. The
puzzled preacher looked at the papers
in establishment, shook his head, and
explained the mistake. Hans succeed

Miscellaneous.
American Cookery.

a CRITICISM BY PIERRE BLOT.
In America, the science of cookery
has been much neglected until of late
years. Now there are many compe-
tent cooks in the country, and in New
York and Boston especially, may be
found many excellent gastrOnomers.
AS I have before sgil, no country in
the world presents a greater abund-
ance and variety of food than Ameri-
ca, and in no country are the means
of obtaining good materials for food
so equally distributed. If the reform
which has commenced in the great
cities, spreads to the country towns
and villages, America will not only
conquer its great enemy, dyspepsia,
but will grow rich out of the savings
which scientific cookery affords. Too
much meat is eaten in America. The
AnglO-Saxon race lOye5. -muscIe,l and
therefore eats most the food that pro-
duces muscle. Beef and mutton being
the most nutritious of animal food,
and the best to supply the waste of
muscular power, are the Unvarying
diet of the majority Of the people.
Many intelligent persons, who are
wise enough on other subjects, are e.
lceedingly. careless about what concerns
their very life. WhenI see men who
never, or very Sc CIdOm use their mus
cles, live entirely on steaks and roast
beef, which is exactly the opposite of
what nature demands, I cannot help
plying I them, and wishing that they
would listen to nature.
The lower animals, with the excep-
ton, perhaps, of two or three species,
such as the boa constructor, &C., are
much wiser than man; they do not
feed contrary to natures demand. A
man who has a sedentary occupation,
whO does not breathe the pure air
more than once a week, should not
eat steaks more than oncea week,
and other meat once every other day.
Instead Of paying thirty live cents a
pound for a too often sole-leather
steak, let the man who wishes to live
natural lifetime, buy occasionally e
good fish for eight, ten or twelve
cents a pound. Ins:eld of becoming
strong on a beef diet, a man of seden-
tary habits withers like a leaf in the
fall, becomes dyspeptic, cOnsumptive,
and dies before having reached half
the age he would have done if he had
paid attention to his food.
By eating too much and too often of
the same article of food, it naturally
becomes difficult of digestion and un-
palatable, and requires stimulants of
some kind along with it, at least, so
nearly everybody thinks. A change
Of diet would be the right course, but
instead of that, strong bottled sauces,
catsups, pickles, ETC., are largely par
taken OF, and together with too much
liquor of one kind or the other, the
food is bolted and our. poor stOmachs
are left to perform their overwOrk. Is
it a wonder that dyspepsia and con-
sumption should set in? ,s-.-

Our FOremOtIlers.

We hear enough about our fOrefathers.
They were very nice old fellows, no doubt.
Good to work, eat, or fight. Very WE'LL
But where are their companions, their
"chums," who, as their helpmates, urged
them along? Who worked and delved for
our fOrefathers, brushed up their old clothes
and patched their bUeeches? Who almost
involved themselves for the cause of iber-
ty? Who nursed our fOrefathers when
sicll-sang Yankee Doodle to their babies?
Who trained up their boys? Our Fore
mothers.
Who landed at James River, and came
over in the Mayhower, and established the
other early settlements? Were there any
women among them? One would think
not. Our Yankee neighbOrs especially
make a wonderful talk about our pilgrim
fIthers who squatted on Plymouth Rock,
and there is a great ado made over it every
time they wish to get mp a little enthusias IN
on liberty, and refresh themselves by
growing for freedom; EU5 with all the
a'blarney' so plentifuIly distributed on all
sides, what do we hear or gather about our
foremOthers? Didn't they land on a rock
too? Didn't they encounter perils and
hardships in the hospitals and on the bat
tie fields? And, after all, didn't they, with
their kind hearts, sustain the tagging
spirits of the male companions?
We have our monuments cOmmemOra-
ting, and our speeches, our songs, our
toasts, and our public dinners, celebrating
the wonderful deeds of our forefathers, but
where are those in honor of our fore
mothers? We talk ourselves hoarse, and
write ourselves rOund-shouldered, while
boiling over with enthusiasm about the
nice things our fOrefathers did, and yet
nothing is said about our fOremOthers, to
whom many a virtuous act and brave deed
may be ascribed, such as any hero would
be proud to own.
We wish not to detract. All hail to the
noble old men, our forefathers, say We
May the glory of their deeds never be less;
but the good Book tells us to ''render unto
Cesar" ETC., and we wish to speak word
in season for women generally, and Cs-
pecially for our noble and self-sacrihcing
fOremOthers, lest time, and the one-sidPd
page Of history, shall blot them forever
from our m memories.
