THE FEELING FOR NAPOLEON IN FRANCE

THE FEELING FOR NAPOLEON IN FRANCE
-Parsian correspondence throws more light
upon the popular reaction in favor oil Napo-
leon. The result of the recent election was
surprise to many sanguine and shorl-sighted
Republicans. The Bonapartist vote was not
as large as that party expected, but at the
same time it was twice as large as anybody
else expected. The most striking point IN
these elections is that the Legitmist vote was
very small, and the Orleanist vote not counted
at all. One of the main results, therefore, IS
that the field is narrowed down TO the contest
between the Imperialiss and the Republicans
The former gain adherents every day. A
correspondent relates an occurrence which
illustrates the present state of public senti-
ment A party of women were making pur-
chases in shop. "Aiter all" said one, ''if

talk has a great effect upon the French, and
Immediately every one in the shop was eager
to say good word for the Emperor. The
onerous taxes levied by the Republicans

UTILIZATION OF SURPLUS PoTAToEs.-ln
cases where the potato crop is so large as not
to be readily marketable, and more or less IN
danger of decaying through the winter, the
surplus can be so treated as to furnish a
valuable article of food, capable of preserya-
ton for a long time. For this purpose the
potatoes are to be washed clean, steamed,
peeled while still hot, and finally pressed
through a fine sieve. The potatoes thus COM
pressed are to be laid while still hot upon graf
| ings and dried as quickly as possible, say in
ten or twelve hours, in order to avoid any
souring or putrefaction; this being generally
the result OF drying too slowly, or with an in
sufficient heat. The potatoes dried In this
way are of an excellent flavor, and can be
packed and kept for years in a dry place, and
are serviceable for provisioning ships, armies
in the field, &c. About 900 pounds of fresh
potatoes will make 100 pounds Of the dry
article, which, when properly prepared, viii
have precisely the flavor and appearance o
freshly boiled potatOes.-PUblic Document

ouences Of the sudden depression Of tempera-
ture which is coneomitant Of early winter
Flannel next the skin preserves the animal
heat, but it does not ia part animal vigor.
That property is the special prerogative Of
Hostetter's Stomach BitterS, which is there
fore a specific protection against majority
of the complaints which are most common at
this season. For example, course Of the
great vegetable invigorant. commenced now,
will be almost sure TO preclude ehills and
fever. bilious collie. disorders Of the stomach,
constipation. and many other complaints
which are often the direct or indirect effect

toned and regulated by this means is much
more likely to resist pulmonary disease than

searching medicine peryades all the organs,

sons whose vital powers are weak, especially
invalid ladies and the aged, are earnestly
