appears at first sight, for the parched substance
would not be liable 10 ferment or "heat" like or
binary corn meal and the removal OF the oil from
the corn would increase its digestibility, while the
nutritious nature OF such food would seem to be
proved by the practice in Mexico, where parched
corn Ia largely used in various forms as an article

REMOVAL OF THE NATIONAL CAPITAL TO THE WEST.

population they are capable OF supporting, the
wealth and population will ne 80 preponderant here

THE PRESERVATION or FOOD.
Recent Modes Of Desiccating and Preparing
PcrIshablc Articles Of Food.

-
The preservation OF articles OF food, whether TO In
crease their nutritious properties or their preserva
ton when OF perishable nature, or their more
venicnt carriage and transportation, constitutes 4
subject OF extended importance and one that at the
present time Is exciting considerable attention
among practically scientific men. Most or the
efforts made in this direction OF late years have how
ever been directed toward the discovery OF some
cheap and efficient means OF preserving animal
rather than vegetable substances owing TO the we'll
known cheapncss OF the former In many countries
and the wealth and celebrity that would be almost
certain to accrue to whoever could produce q means
whereby they could be brought intact and at small
sure and steady markets. Some Of these Efforts oil.
though founded on principles theoretically correct,
have achieved only temporary notoriety In practice
and then fallen out OF recollection, while others have
Teen successful In their immediate object but failed,
either from being too costly or from some other
reason quite apart from their intrinsic nature TO win
complete confidence or come into extended CONNER
cial notice. Among the latter may be mentioned
the meat-Dscuit celebrated for many years past,
and made by simply mixing strong beef-tea with fine
four and moling IL into masses of proper size
and shape, and which was so nutritive that four
ounces per day was Sufficient for soldier on active
duty. Some considerable attention has also been de-
voted to the preparation OF vegetables by different
experimenters, whose processes In most instances
have been quite simple and frequently embraced but
little novelty. These have, however been often Of
decided interest Is indicating means by which cheap
and rapidly decaying materials may be converted
into substantial articles OF food not liable to decay

tai antagonism. The most perfect
peace reigns among the various fac
ulties of his mind. lie can not be
odd, singular, eccentric or erratic; his
mind will not allow him to dy of in

useful in whatever he undertakes.
Politically. he is of the old Wing

has brought all the enthusiasm of his

from the stand point Of philosophy.
Mr.. Colfax is much moro than poli'

Religiously, Mr.. Colfax belongs to
