CANNED FRUITs.-The impression
prevails among those who use freely
fruits which are put up Ia tin cans, that
they are injured thereby, and this i'm
preston is In many cases correct. We
have long contended that all preserved
fruits and vegetables should be stored
In glass, and that no metal of any kind
should be brought In contact ctwit h them.
All fruits contain more or less vegetable
acids, and others that are highly corro.
sive are often formed by fermentation.
and the metallic vessels are considerably
acted upon. Tin cans are held together
by solder, an alloy into which lead en-.
ters largely. This metal Is easily cor.
roded by vegetable acids, and poisonous
salts are formed. Undoubtedly many
persons are greatly II jured by eating
tomatoes, peaches, etc which have been
placed in tin cans. and we advise oil
our friends who contemplate putting up
fruits the present summer to use only
gl .ss jars for the purpose Boston Jour
nolof Chemistry.

HOG LAw.--"Nisi Prius." through
the Columbian furnished a digest of the
law relating to swine running at large
in Columbia, Co. Pa, the gist Of which
seems to be, that swine have no rights
In the highways of said county unless
they have rings in their noses and
yokes on their necks, as described by
the Act of Assembly Thank you "Nisi
Prius." for the seasonable, reasonable
and careful bit OF hoggish information.
Will "Nisi Prius" inform the public
la the county paper If hogs running at
large without rings and yokes are sub
jected to the general laws regulating
strays? A ''little learning Is dam

give additional proof that the "Holly
system" depends for its adoption upon
bribery rather than merit. We have al
ready stated the offer to certain Dan
vile editor of 800, for the influence of
his paper, and that he at once became
the advocate of this plan. We have also
stated the offer of 800 to the Repub
'ican of this place, and its columns show
how warmly it has advocated it.
We now give additional proof in the
shape of a quotation from the Spring
field Republican, one of the best and
most influential of eastern papers.
