The Dining Table.

mustKing Satan have an especial
. spite againstthisp people, Judging
from the character of his culin-
airy emissaries among us. We
fear 1t must be concluded that
we are not a cooking people, in
any worthy sense of the word.
That we are eminently an eat
ing people, is obvious from the
continuous demand for beef,
mutton and pork. Look at Lin
coin county! The cattle and
hogs from her thousand hills are
collected, it would appear,to fill
our voracious nav.
Excellence in cooking is a
high test Of refinement, and the
time may perhaps arrive, as we
advance in the fine arts, when it
will be held in a high esteem;
when science shall save the
muscles of our jaws, by teach
ing us how to subdue the obdu-
rate "sirloin" and impenetrable
"rump" to tenderness; and the
man Tor woman) who confers a
new gustatory delight upon
their species, or saves the gen
eral stomach (seat of the mod
ern soulD an indigestive pang,
shall be held worthy Of public
honors, as benefactor of the
race.
Meantime, while hoping and
praying for the advent of such
gastronomical millennium, it be-
hooves every citizen to contrib
ate what assistance ne may,
were it only by a grumbiing pro-
test against the general spelling
of viands, towards reGo,m in
cooking. The fortunate class
who luxutiate through life have
perhaps little to complain of.
But, alas! others, defiant of in
digestion, desperately dine at
home, on the culinary failures
of Dinah.
To commence at the rudi-
'ments Of the art, where is the
lucky man who has his daily po-
tato properly boiled? It is SIM
pie operation, one would think;
yet how seldom isitrightIy done!
1t were curious to inquire how
many indigcstions are attributa-
bic to this cause; how many fits
Of spleen and blue-devils re-
suit from the under-done tuber;
and, may we not add, how many
deleterious drinks are imbibed
under pretext Of stimulating the
digestive functions, to get rid
of the "perilous stuff that
weighs, half boiled upon them.
Ascending from this''root Of the
NATTER" we find that the rude
popular idea Of cookery, as
practised among us, consists in
the plentiful application and
combination of grease with hui
man food.' What garlic is to
the Italian, grease is to the A
mercantile main stay, the
soul of every culinary prepare
ton. Our pies and confection-
airy are over-greased-too often
with bad butter; our fish, flesh
and fowl dripping IN rank unc-
tuousness; the simple steak and
unpretending chop are presented
greasily to their lovers; and
even our vegetables are served
up in an unnatural oily state.
Is it that we have not time for
mastication, that our victuals
are thus prepared ready creased,
to slip down without further
trouble? Then, why should
our meat be "bolled to rags, or
baked to a cinder, before it is
considered fit for mortal food?
all its juices evaporated, and
little but the carbonised remains
of the once stately joint be left
for the nutriment of man. A
las! is not our beet tough and
impermeable enough as a gen
eral thing, without being har-
dened-like tempered STEEL

Greeley's Attempt ut Gamin On.

Horace Greeley tried exceedingly hard at
Louisville to make the colored people believe
that his (Greeley's) party were their friends.
But the colored people Of Kentucky have
seen no change in the manner of their treat
nlent ON railroads, in hotels, in schools, and
on jures since the people of that State be-
came converted to Greeleyism. Hence they
look upon the Liberal movement as mere
sham and blind to give to rebel sympathizing
and negro-hating Democracy full control of
the National Government. Greeley's low
estimate of the motive impelling colored men
to support the true and tried Republican
party is sufficient to drive every colored man
with a spark of self-respect, into stronger
support of the party opposing the false pre-
lenses of Greeley and followers.
Why does Greeley at this stage of the
game attempt to CANNON the colored voters
OF the South unless it be that he feels that
his chances are on the decline All along
the Greeleyites have affected not to desire a
colored vote; in the columns of the Greeley
music-box (the 7'ibuae) the negro has been
held up to ridicule and the choice epithets Of
pro-slavery Democracy have been hurled at
him, not surpassed By the old time viiifica-
tons Of such papers as the New York Day
Book and the Herala. Now, when defeat is
staring poor Horace in the face he is ready to
cry Justify to Pompey for help, and even
takes a TIP into the late slave States to
CANNON colored people into believing that
the Liberals love them. But we are happy
to be able to say that the negro is too INTEL
ligent to he ganmoned into supporting the
step-ladder for the Democracy, with all its
negro hate, 10 climb into power upon.

OF the neutrality laws, and insisted that there
was not the least cause Of complaint; how
we were insulted and assailcd again on the
occasion Of Mr.. Summers speech on the
Seward-Clarendon treaty, and all prospects
for an amicable settlement seemed to be
farther removed than ever, we may well feel
gratiied with this result, and satisfied with
the labors of those who achieved it.
The malcontents here as well as in Eng
this light. They are thoroughly dissatisfied
and disguised, and scold everything and
everybody. The opposition press in Eng
land rave about the national humiliation that,
as they pretend, has been inflicted on them,
the injustice they have met with at the hands
Of the arbitrators, and the Democratic papers
in this country scream just as loudly and
abuse the Administration for not having OBJ
tanned higher damages-say the round little
sum Of a thousand million; for not insisting
on indirect damages; in short, for not lay
ing England in letters down at the feet of
the United States. If they could be sup
posed to be sincere in their indignation, one
might remind them that only conqueror,
by the right of the stronger one, may die
tate terms fully satisfactory to his own party,
but that an amicable understanding in a case
involving so many old differences and conflict
ing interests can never be reached unless rea-
sonable concessions are made on either side !;
but it is generally understood that far from
being moved even by mistaken patriotic zeal,
they are merely working for their own party
purposes. The Tories would have been de-
lighted the damages had been laid to double
the amount, in order to have handle by
which to attack and GUST the Liberal Cabinet,
and the Greeleyites of all shades ardently
wished to see the treaty fail altogether for
the sake of laying the whole blame on the
Administration, and reserving the final set
Element to themselves. On both sides they
have tried their worst in vain, and their de-
nunciations and the Immature to which they
give vent, will not disturb the Joy with which
all fair-minded people will hail the restora-
ton of friendship and mutual understanding
between two kindred nations.

Judge staIlo GA Horace Greeley

We call the attention OF our readers 10 the
remarkable speech of Judge Stallo, delivered
recently in st. Louis, which will be found in
another column. 1t is s;ngularly striking in
its characterization of Horace Greeley and
in the exposition Of his career and OF the
political situation. Mr.. Stallo, it will be re-
membered, was one of the earliest and most
earnest promoters of the Cincinnati move
ment, who entered upon it trusting in the
good faith of the originators, and little
dreaming that the cry Of reform was to be
made the cloak with which to cover the in
trigues of a gang of perfdious political trick
sters and demagogues. Disappointed and
indignant he, like so many other good and
able men, has left their ranks, and since he
is prominent representative of the best
German element, his Reputation of Greeley
ism will by far outweigh the pron'nciamento
CT Mr.. Hassaureck in favor of Horace Gree
ley, which the Tribune is trumpeting out so
triumphantly, and will even considerably
neutralize the pernicious influence of Carl
Schurz. Thus far, we have vanly looked
into the Tribune for line concerning.Mr.
Stallo's action. The private organ, so prompt
and exact in announcing arrivals, is rather
reluctant concerning departures unless
they coincide with its own new departure.

the,,2ith instant, WILLIAM WATSON SYTHE,
in the 18th year Of his age.
These lines will carry sadness and grief to
many hearts, not only in Baltimore, but here
in Washington, and especially at Howard
University, at which institution he was q
student in the Law Department. He was
the youngest student connected with either
OF the professional departments Of the Uni
versty, and, by his upright and manly con-
duet, had made a host OF friends, not only
with Prof. Langston, in whose household he
lived during torn time, but with the stu
dents, with whom he was n great favorite,
and most active in all the college sports !;
he was good student, and possessed
the strong characteristic of good, active,
honest lad. He died of typhoid fever, after
q brief illness of three weeks. Willie Sythe
was the cousin of our friend Mr.. William E..
Matthews.

IT is one Of the natural consequences OF
the Liberal Democratic alliance that the pri-
waite organ Of Mr.. Greeley should pander a
little 10 Democratic prejudice Of color, in
order to show that it lis by no means fanatical
on the subject. In the list of Liberal Re-
publican and Democratic meetings. we find
among the speakers "Rev. Chas. b. Ray,
(colored.)" This would be quite in order, if
we should likewise read, "Hon. Carl Schurz,
Germany" or '.Hon. What's-his.N Name,
Qong-earedD" but nothing of tho kind is
done, "Rev. Chas. B. Ray, (colored, y alone
is singled out for this questionable distinc-
ton. though he is jealous supporter of Mr..
Greeley, duly grateful for past and present
services. To be sure, If ''Rev. Chas. B.
Ray (colored)" does not take ofisnss 1t is no
business Of ours, though we should think that
he must feel somewhat awkward. 1t is the
old yellow badge, and he who Is willing to
wear it, win always be accommodated.

Grant Women 10 the Front.

Rochester, New York, was boiling over
with enthusiasm at the mass meeting held
under tho auspices of the ladies who favor
the reelection Of General Grant, on Friday
night last. The. largest and most fashion
able ball in that city Of intelligence, thrift,
and general enterprise, was crowded and
damned to overlooking, to listen to and rap
turously applaud tho arguments of Mrs. f
Cady Stanton, Mrs. Gage, and Miss Olympia
Brown, in behalf Of tho Republican party,
and against the duplicity and false pretenses
of the Grceleyites. This is, indeed, revo-
luton in which women arc allowed to ex-
press on the stump their preferences for this
or that candidate, and have the support, as
in Rochester, of some of the best men aud
women in the community.

The Geneva Award.

The Cec:sion OF the Geneva Tribunal will
doubtless be received with Joy and satisfac.
tion by the great majority Of the American
PEOPLE. 1t is favorable to this country, and
being entirely the result of arbitration, it is
to be hailed as one Of the great manifesto
tons Of the civilization Of our century, which
substitutes the means of intellect for those
Of material force, the only ones which in
former times would have been appealed to in
such case, and might possibly have decided
it contrary to the dictates of reason and
justice. II viii put an end to the feelings OF
uncasiness and dissatisfaction here as well as
in England, to the apprehension of new COM
plications in case Of European war, which
were hanging ON the horizon like Il darl,
cloud, as long as this question remained un-
settled, without any reasonable hope of an
early solution.
Fifteen millions of dollars are awarded by
the Tribunal as an naturalization for the
depredations of the rebel cruisers, a suf-
ficiently large sum, 1t would seem, to cover
most Of tho direct losses sustained. A point
BY no means inferior in consequence, how
ever, has been gained in the long-denied
concession on the part Of the English Gov
eminent, to have the question settled by the
rules Of international law laid down by the
American Government. when we remem-
Der how obstinately just this point was con-
tested by England; when further we look
