SURRENDERED AS was intimated
last week, Paris has surrendered. An
armistice, for three weeks, on sea and
land, was signed on Saturday night last.
The forts OF the city are ia the hands of
the Germans, and the city remains in
vested. Its garrison force is held as
prisoners OF war within the city. All
arms, except those Of the National
Guard and one iii, ision OF the regular
army arc to be surrendered the National
Guard are to undertake the maintenance
"f order. The armistice extends to the
whole of France; all the armies in the
field will retain their respective positions
tie ground betw cen opposing lines to
be considered Seutral. Upon the sur
render of the arms OF the army of Paris,
communcation--not unroslrictcd-is TO
be opened with the b-lengured city, and
40 obstacle viii be Otf.red To the rupply
ofiood. a Tribune dispatch says tha, ,he
demand upon the city OF Paris is 200.
100000 of francs. The Constituent AS
sembly is TO be called to meet at Bor-
deaux within fortnight. This surren-
der aud arnistice, does not amount to
anything lake a proclamation of peace,
but that peace will follow, there is
ground tor reasonable confidence. Ev-
erything tends TO such a conclusion, as
all France, as well AS the world, recog-
mixes the hOpelessness of her situation,
and the madness that lies in the way of
. refusal. The Assembly will meet iul.
ly authorized by public sentiment To
conclude peace ON any terms which the
Germans will grant. Tie German Elm
peTOr prays for peace the German ma
tion, too, desires IL ardenily; and it will
be the fault Of the Assembly IL the wal
is not concluded with the tall Oi Paris.
With regard to the question Of the re.

The late DR.. Wm. Wisner, of Ithica,
N. Y, whose death was reported recent
ly, at one time during his ministry,
had very strong convictions of the i'm
.prOpriety Of the marriage of protesting
Christians with non-professors. He was
for carrying out literally the Apostolic
injunction, "Be ye not unequally yoked
with unbelievers." He wrote upon the
subject, and was generally known as
strongly holding to the idea. In spite
of this, however, one Of the prominent
young men in his church married gay
and attractive young lady who was not
christian, and aa kind Of argument
for himself, and as against his pastor, he
said to some one, "Well, l don't care,
she's one Of satan's most beautiful daugh.
ters." This saying was commonly re.
ported through the social circles of the
place, little at the Dr.'s expense. The
next time he mt the young man IN com.
pany, he said to him in clear voice,

The ANTI-ToBAcCo CRUSADE BEGUN
We assume that the resolution present.
ed in the State House of Representa-.
tives by Mn Bogardus to prevent the
smoking and chewing of tobacco in the
hall of the House, is regarded by that
gentleman as a movement in tho direct
line OF a. higher civiliaatioR As the
resolution, if passed, would amount TO
nothing more than merat declaration,
il was inevitable that some practical
minded me enaber would add a proviso re-
quiring somebody to enforce it. This
was done By Mr.. Marshall, and the duty
Of suppressing ,he smokers and chcwers
was put upon the already hardened
shoulders Of tho Scngeant-atarms and
his helpless assistants. In this shape
the resolution passed, by 2s yeas to le
nays, but under sSch suspicious cEeum-
stances that it is doHbtlul whether the
action of the House is iaiI test OF the
sentinents of a majority of the members.

some boggling between the House and Senate
on some matters of mere legislative punctilio,
Iit is pretty apparent that the income feature Of
the Internal Rey law, is doomed. There
is strong current-somewhat unjustly, we
think-setting against il, and If II does not go
by the board, probabilities would seem TO be
Mt fault. With such a result, there would be
little left 10 warrant the machinery now in
operation to secure the inadequate results
and avails Of the system. The stamp feature,
and that of spicial taxes upon liquor, tobacco,
&C., will be all that is left, and it would seem
as If some other provision should be hit upon
10 carry these out. The Tribune, In allusion
10 the matter, expresses the trust that
IL will be abolished at this session, and urges
against this Income feature, that-"It Is in
quisitorial, unequal, oppressive If 1t were
faithfully enforced, II would cost in blanks
and their service a large portion of its pro-
cecds. II is q discouragement to thrift. II
tempts to coneealment and evnsion. 1t ena-
blcs A. to poke his nose unwarrantaby into BIS
private affairs. 1t was revived last year In de-
fance Of distinct pledge that there should be
no more of It," Some of these are strong
points and very well put, but that II is IA dis
couragement 10 thrift, !" or that ut teEnpts to
cencealments and evasion" any more than
other tax laws, is not very apparent. They
however. help to swell the catalogue Of objec-
tons. and with those who jump conclusions,
may carry some weight
Nextto the Income matter, and sur
passing il in show one parade, last
week, at the Capitol, was the unveiing
of Winnie Ream's statue of Lincoln in
the Capitol Rotunia. The nations best
! orators were present as was also the
President, Vice-President, Supreme Court
Judges, Cabinet Ministers, Senators, and
Members. Mr.. Lneoln's best and most
intimate friends became eloquent, and
even lacbrymese over the chisscled
marble, aud indeed all who have seen it.,
pronounce it a triumph of the sculptor's
art. That this fragile ''ittle girl" as
she is sometimes called, fred by an en-
thusiasm so irrepressible that she has
been willing to brave all sorts OF un-
friendly criticisms from the caustic pens
of her sisters, only-shonh eclipse the
masterpieces OF old and prac,iced artists,
goes to prove again that genius is born
rather than acquired. She seems, indeed
TO have been an "Adam at her birth" in
sculpture, and it IL grateful so see the
purrst and noblest men in Congress, and
The most cultivated critics in art, thS in
teresting themselves to give her this we'll
deserved popular recognition Of her truly

Salt Petre.

We often see recipes for the
curing of meats in which this
salt forms a component part.
1t is undoubtedly one CT the
best of antiseptics. 1t is
thought to have been the prin-
cipal article used by the ancient
Egyptians in embalming; by
which process the mummies
have been preserved three thou
sand years But being so ex-
ceilent for mummyficatior does
not make it fit to preserve
meats. Indeed, we think it
should never be used for that
purpose at all, for tile reason
that it utterly ruins meat as
an article of food. We have
purchased what purported to
be sugar cured hams that could
not be eaten, although, to all
appearance, they were in excel
lent condition, from the fact
that they were preserved by
salt petre, that had converted
them into an entirely different
substance from bacon.
A very small portion of salt
petre is often used, and j:
much liked by some, because il
gives a fine red color. But the
smallest portion is injurious il
some degree, as it unites chem
ically with the meat, making i
/ it an entirely different sub
stance, a substance that is no
edible.
On the other hand you can
spoil meat with common salt
put as much on as you please
: Sugar may also be beneficial il
some degree. Smoke is bene
fetal in the preservation 0
meat, by its drying effect. Blu
; so far asit penetrates bacon i
] ruins it for food.
