enyoys> delivered letter from the Emperor OF
China to the President OF the United States,
which Was translated for the edi6cation of the
Secretary of State by Mr.. McLeary Browne,
first secretary to Mr.. BlrEngame. The docu-
ment vas brought in walnut box some two

ty-fve feet in length, is written in Chinese
from beginning to end. and contains enough Of
parchment to furnish dozen drums. Mr.
Tung, one of the mandarins of the embassy
speaks English with remarkable clearness. and
Mr.. Burlingame is said to be quite fluent in
the Chinese tongue. Tung has Mongolian
face of high patrician cast, and is said to be
the handsomest man Of the embassy.
An egg tester has recently been patented
in England. 1t consists of cubical box, with
central funnel-shaped openings in two contigu-
ous sides, opposite which a mirror is placed
at an angle Of forty-fve degrees. On looking
into the box through either hole the image
of the other hole, reflected by the mirror, ap-
pears directly opposite. To test eggs the box
is placed with one of the holes uppermost, in
which the egg is placed. The light then trans
mitted through the egg forms sharply de-
fined disc. If the egg be fresh, the illumi-
mated circle will be clear; if stale, the disk
will be cloudy, and if bad, the image will be
dark and unsightly. The apparatus, it is sta
ted, may be used by daylight or candlelight.
The light reflected BY the mirror to the eye
passes entirely through the Substance of the
egg, and consequently every change from per-
feet translucency to thorough opacity can be
observed.

IT IS SAFE to say That in the city, during
the election. of county officers, not one-half
of the white vote was polled for any candi-
didate. There was no enthusiasm, and no
manifestation of that spirit which makes
each citizen feel that he has not done his
duty unless he has deposited his ballot. In
spite of this, the Conservative candidate
polled more than three thousand votes, the
great majority of which were given by col
ored men. This proves, conclusively, that
a moderate man-not q partisan-can, if
supported by the white vote, obtain suti-
cient negro vote to enable him to beat the
Radicals in the Charleston city elections.

The resolutions of the Democratic State
Convention show that the members possess
ed both intelligence and moderation of spirit,
and it is hoped that their suggestions will
be followed by all the Southern delegates to
National Convention. 1t is the North and
West, and not the South, that must win the
fight. The South has no electoral power,
and should not, therefore, presume to de-
termine who the nominee shall be. South
ern delegates may, with propriety, advise
and confer freely with their colleagues,
but they should not cast vote, and should
pledge themselves to work with all their
might and main for whoever may be the
candidates of the National Democratic party.

Nonsense too Much.

A great deal of nonsense with refer
ence to how young girls should be
brought up, and what their abilities
should consist of when they are young
women, is ahoat in the papers and mag
azines. It is very agreeable, perhaps, to
a certain class, to be told that the kit
chen is n girls place, and that the acts
of washing, ironing and mending old
clothes, make female look more espe-
cially attractive than any other perform
ance of which she may avail herself.
TO certain extent, this may verge upon
truth. But in their advocacy OF this
style of life for the rising generation OF
future mothers, the advocates invariably
stop to heave long and strong fling at
certain accomplishments, which women
noW-a- -days are anxious to acquire, and
pardonably desirous of exhibiting after
!. they have acquired them. Among these
are drawing, speaking the languages cur
rent in society. dancing, playing musical
i instruments, etc. The kitchen admirers
speak of these requirements as II they
were totally depraving, demorallzIng,
and useless. Now. a LADY" may make
bread and speak French, too. she may
darn q stocking and paint landscape, as
well. There is no law, human or DIVINE,
that we know of, to prevent her from
washing garment, and being qualified
to draw speaking music from the piano.
There need be no very great dividing
line between the harp and the sewing
machine. il things are skilfully organ
lied. The Accomplishments are quite
as useful to make woman a good wife anu
mother as the needful knowledge oi
household economies. A woman is none
the better ironer for being totally igno-
rant of everything that makes her com
panionship something above that OF 9
