ges% The New York Sun. in

gsg~ The New York Sun, intense
Radical, is very severe in its structures
upon the Admins tration for postponing
the elections in Mississippi and Texas
till the close of November. The Sun
argues that "this postponement, coming
right upon the heels of the Virginia
election, shows timidity in meeting
the issues involved in the reconstruction
policy, which does not augur we'll for
the Administration" 1t says that the
people had "rather follow the audacious
red flag than the pusilanimous white
feather, for the former evinces that
courage which of itself often secures
victory, while the latter betrays that
cowardice which always invites defeat;"
and it assures Gen. Grant that the
sooner he abandons this cowardly and
unprincipled line Of policy, the better
it will be for his Administration.

REMOVAL OF GENERAL CANDY.

REMOVAL OF GENERAL CANDY.
A rumor was prevalent in this city
yesterday that President Grant had re-
moved General Candy from command
in this District, and appointed General
Mcdowell in his place. 1t is sup
posed that this movement has been
brought about through the influence
of Horace Greeley, who insists that
the Republican party shall keep
faith with the people of Virginia
in their election, and as Gen. Candy had
manifesteda disposition to intefere rather
much in political matters by commit
ting himselfin favor Of the test.oath to
the legislators, it was deemed expedient
to remove him and fill his position by
one who will do his duty regardless of
political sympa thies.

OUR TRUCKING INTERESTS.

y U IL lhO ChlNG lin In Id l =.
Do the citizens of Norfolk know how
much damage has been done them this
season by the operations of "rlngs,'
combinations, and "middle men" in
Baltimore, Philadelphia, and New York
If they do not, we think they had bet
ter be making some inquiry in regard
to the matter. The money received in
this community ordinarily for trucks,
far exceeds all other amounts, probably
combined and if this is not an object
worthy of their attention, we would like
to know what is. We are in possession
of some few items of loss sustained by
our truckers this season, which we do
not care to make public for prudential
reasons but would state one instance
only as sample, which is that one of
our prominent truckers has sunk $16,-
600 this season on his opera tons. That
ought to be an eye-opener for us.
1t may be thought by some that our
losses this season in the trucking busl-
ness we're principally owing to the

nsa. Secretary Boutwell,, has written
letter to Mr., Stokes, the Radi cal can
dldate for Governor Of Tennessee,
which has been published in the State
Journal at Nashville. In his letter
Mr. Boutwell, says he is greatly inter-
ested in Stokes success, believing that
the future political character and gen.
oral prosperity Of Tennessee depend
largely upon the continuance of the
Republican party in power. He re-
CARDS the supporters of Stokes as the
true Republican party OF Tennessee,
and condemns the Republican supper
tiers of Senter, because they are allied
with the enemies Of the Republican
party.

The Qualifications for a Son in Law.

Men in Vanity Fair are classed
either as eligible or detrimental. In
taking the measure and noticing the
desirable points in her future son-in-
law, the model mother-in-law, will
be more apt to think of his abilities
to provide an establishment for her
angel child than in his sterling quail
ties either of mind or heart. In this
age OF materialism and positivism. the
bill-paying capacity is the irst thing
to be considered, and that being sat
isfactory, manners, education, habits
and integrity may be desirable but
not necessary. The days when wo
men throw themselves away by mar
rying poor men or fellows with a
mere competence have gone by, al
though now aud then there are some
cases of rashness of this kind. The
Eligible part, then, is the man of
money. Now for the Detrimental
lie Is generally very agreeable, we'll
informed, has seen great deal of
society and life, which has rendered
him careless of the observance of
many of those habits and assumed
virtues which pass with unsophisti-
Gated old folks for morality. He is
frank, generous, warm-hearted, free
with his money, never thinks of
that "rainy day" to be provided
against, fond of society and the Ia
dies. As a society man no is charm
ing, as a travelling companion kind
and delightful No affair is complete
without him, for his dress and ad-
dress are stylish and pleasing. He
knows that he is Detrimental, and
that papa's politeness, and mammals
cordially. and Celestina's warmth
are of very different quality to the
Eligible when he makes his appear
ance. He sees that with money he
too would be an Eligible, and al
though it may cost him a pang, still
he would not change places with an
Eligible, who was an ass and had
nothing but his money. The Detri-
mental makes society delightful for
what society returns in the way of
entertainment; but the Eligible is a
bone Of contention and social Nor
decai.

be soft if hard throw in some ashes
some prefer pine tar or resin.
Throw a bucket of cold water yer
the hog as soon as scalded-it closes
the pores and whitens the skin.
When hung up, wash, scrape up

cloth; should be thoroughly washed,
scraped and wiped heart or liver
should never be cut in the hog take
entrails out to jugular vein, then take
the vein, heart and liver out.
The pork should be slightly salted
for Two or three days, skin down
and then turned and covered With

medium sized ham brine should be
preserved, old brine the best but
should be boiled and skinned before
