Canton.

The streets of this city are wider than
those of most other Chinese cities, and
are lined with the most costly goods,
such as silks, embroidery, gold and sill
yer work, precious stones, rich cloths,
of every description, abundantly testify
ing both to the enterprise of the mer-
chants and the wealth of city that can
support SO great number of such es-
adjustments. These streets and shops
are comparatively clean and elegant.
The streets are shaded from the sun by
continuous awning extending from
roof to roof above. and are lighted at
night by huge lanterns, with embroid-
cred silken sides, and chandeliers of
glittering glass, SO that day or night,
they resemble the long halls of an ar
cade, or the corridors of some vast ex-
hibition rather than public streets.
Besides its other ornaments, each shop
is adorned with a gilded shrine in the
most conspicuous place, where incense
If constantly kept burning to the god of
wealth.

Hints to Housewives.

1. The nearest way to your husbands
heart-and pockets through his un-
derstandings. So if you desire a new
frock, never forget to have his slippers
we'll warmed on his return from the
city.
2. Everybody knows how heat affects
the hand. So when you go to church
wear your very oldest gloves to the hot
evening services, and be careful to keep
stiff new ones for the morning devotions
when the plate goes round.
3. How to get new bonnet. Give
your hubby nice little tasty dishes every
day for dinner, and stick to the cold
mutton yourself. When he asks the
reason, shake your head, sigh, and say,
I am Obliged to economize, my dear. J"
Keep on like this for week, then, after
you have given him his second edition
of grog, hint that your "poor old bon
net is getting so shabby"
4. RecoDect that connubial bliss is
like raspberry jam, it will keep long
time if properly preserved.

Epicurean Coffee.

There is such thing as science even
in coffee-making, and the French under
stand it better, perhaps, than any other
people in the world. They can COM
bine different cofees, like the parts of
a fine wine. to produce certain rare
bouquets, or aromas, for the epicure.
Not more than half a pound of coffee
should be roasted at time for domes-
tic use; it should be ground only just
before going into the pot; an ounce
should be allowed for every three cups !;
in its mixture with the white of an egg
to clear it there should be some warmth
before the water is added, and it should
never be allowed to reach boil. OBJ
serve these rules, which are based on
scientific reasons, and you may make
from an inferior coffee-bean a beverage
far superior to what generally goes by
that name. 1t will never be black nor
bitter, and can be kept indefinitely
without stating.
Marshall County Republican. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1856-1878, 1874-03-26
Coffee.

There is really more mental force in
a cup of coffee than the uninitiated
dream. have always had grounds
for respecting the scientist who decided,
after years of testing its efficacy, that
coffee prevented the waste of muscular
tissue. Though do think that Schiller,
with all his philosophy, made mistake
in diluting it with old cognac. A uni
ted aroma of Java and Maracaibo is
sufficient in itself, to say nothing of the
fumes of luscious Mocha. The French
manner of distilling coffee is fine art,
understood in its perfection only by a
native or Swiss expert who has served
an apprenticeship in Partisan cafes.
Those who resort to a boiling process
should never use anything but an earth
en- vessel or porcelaiD-lined coffee-pot.
1t should be carefully cleared and kept
closely covered to preserve the fra
GRANGE, which otherwise goes to waste
with the steam. The rank expression
which coffee oftentimes INDUCES comes
from the tin in which it is boiled and
left standing. If possible, the cups
in which it is served should be heated,
TO prevent stagnatiOn of the delicate
efervescence.
Marshall County Republican. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1856-1878, 1874-03-26
Cotton in the Crescent City.

Mr.. Fulton, writing to the Baltimore
american, says I" One of the greatest
curiosities to the stranger in visiting
New Orleans is the cotton-press, or
rather the immense masses of cotton
deposited at these establishments. The
perss itself is merely to compress the
size of the bales to about one-half the
bulk they occupy when they come from
the plantations, and one minute is about
the time required to pass bale through
and rehoop it, thus enabling ship to
carry twice as much cotton as it could
in former times. But what astonishes
the stranger most is the extent of these
establishments, some of them covering
as much as twenty acres Of ground, sur
rounded by broad, deep sheds, which
are not only piled up with cotton, but
immense piles are everywhere exposed,
which are covered with sailcloth when
it rains. For about two miles along the
river front above New Orleans these
press establishments occupy every spot
Of ground, and many thousands of bales
are even piled outside, along the road.
Trains OF cotton wagons are constantly
bringing loads from the steamers to the
presses, and other wagons are hauling
the compressed bales off to the foreign
shipping, which lines the river front for
about four miles. 1t was but the other
day that the steamer Robert Lee ar
rived at New Orleans with $500 bales
of cotton, and the whole receipts at this
season of the year are about 10000
bales per day. ALI of this cotton must
go to these presses to be inspected and
compressed.

"Bill Arp" writes Gentlemen,
there is one thing about drinking. /
almost wish every man was a reformed
drunkard. No man who has never
drank liquor knows what luxury cold
water is. 1 have got up in the night,
after had been spreeing around, and
gone to the pump burning with thirst,
feeling as if the gallows, and the grave
and internal regions were too good for
my hands, with my eyebrows trembling
like had the shaking ague,. and put
the water to my lips, it was the most
delicious draught that ever went down
my throat.
1 have stood there and drank, until I
could drink no more, and gone back to
bed thanking God for the pure, inno-
cent and cooling beverage, and cursing
myself from the inmost, for ever touch
ing the accursed whisky. In my tor
ment of mind and body, 1 have made
VOWS and promises and broken them
within day. But if you want to know
the luxury of cold water, get drunk and
keep at it until you are on fire, and
then try bucketful at the pump in the
night. You want gourd full--you'll
feel like the bucket amt big enough,
and when you begin to drink an earth
quake couldn't stop you. / know men
who will swear to the truth of what ]
say but you see its thing they don't
mean to talk about it's too humiliating.

Pork and Potatoes.

Landlord" said a transient guest
at crossroads tavern, as he drew near
the end of his dinner, won't you give
me little more meat to eat with this
potato % A moment later he said
"There was more pork than l wanted /;
let me trouble you for a little more
potato to eat with this pork" And
shortly afterward: "Well, I've got some
potato left, and it seems pity to leave
it-just small piece of pork, if you
please" 1t ran on 30 for some time.
At length the landlord stopped short In
front of his guest, and remarked ::
"Look here, stranger, faint no use.
TIM willing to do anything in reason to
make that pork and potato come out
even but I've made up my mind, the
way you eat, it can't be did. You're
bound to lap over one or the otherevery
time. Now jest make up your mind
which you'd rather leave, and leave it
and quit. I've got enough pork and
dotatoes, but if you keep OH you'll
bust"

CLEARLY STATED.

The Ford county (Ill) Journal, in a
most excellent article, thus clearly states
the case now before the people
1.-The farmers ask for no Legislation that
W II not alike benefit the merchant, mechanic.
day lsborer, and farmer. They ask for just
and equitable laws. Laws that will benefit
the greatest numbers and these they have re-
solved to have. They ask for honesty and
integrity in officials, and these they viii have
by electing incorruptible men to fill the
Offices, from the highest to the lowest. They
demand that themselves and all other cissses
shall receive reasonable reward for their
labors, and they do not intend to cease the
warfare until they come OF sictorious."
WHAT THESE CHANGERS ARE DOING.
They are furnishing themselves with
circulating libraries, are cultivating
sociality at their meetings and festivals,
are uniting in deeds of benevolence and
charity, are getting up singing schools
and cultivating music, are in hundred
ways contributing to the refinement,
moral, social, and intellectual elevation
of their members. They are debating
the leading questions of the day; max
ing themselves familiar with the modes
of doing business, and by combinations
are advancing their material interests.
These are some of the things that the
Changers are doing.

THE INEBRIATE.

Not sous had he got, not q guinea note,
And he LOOKED confoundedly Hurried
AS he bolted away without paying his shot;
And the landlady after him hurried
We saw him again at dead of night,
When home from the Club returning;
We twigged the Doctor beneath the light
OF the gas-lamp brilliantly burning.
All bare and exposed to the midnight dews
Reclined in the gutter we found him,
And he looked like gentleman taking a snooze,
With his Marshall cloak around him.
"The Doctors as drunk as the d." we said,
And we managed a shutter to borrow:
We raised him, and sighed at the thought that his
head
Would "consumedy ache on the morrow.
We bore him home, and put him to bed
And we told his wife and his daughter
To give him next morning, couple of red
Herrings, with soda-water.
Loudly they talked of his money that's gone,
And his lady began to upbraid him.
But little he rocked, so they let him snore on
Meath the oounterppe just as we laid him.
We tucked him in and had hardly done,
When beneath the window calling
We heard the rough voice of a son of gun
OF a Waterman % One O'Clock ~ bawling.
Slowly and sadly we all walked down
From his room in the uppermost story;
rushlight We placed on the cold he arthstone,
And We left him alone in his glory

State, the whipping post viii soon be
abolished, and Delaware be counted as
enlightened as its neighboring States.
A recent number of the Milford Ne,os
and Il dvertiser says
"The best class of farmers down this way
seem % be prepared to accept the grange
movement and ss soon as it makes its appear
ance here in an authorized form there is no
question but that they win go almost bodily
into it. They are strongly inspired with the
idea that agriculturists IS a class fare worse In
the trade and commerce of the world than any
other; and that this grows largely out of the
want of properly organized cooperative ef-
fort to support and sustain their own interest
and welfare. The organization Of the Patrons
Of Husbandry 10 this thought crystallized into
action, and, unless this moving idea is ex-
ploded or shown to be erroneous. nothing
will retard or suppress the movement"

Important Supreme Court Decision.

The noted and long pending Barte-
meyer case, from Iowa, which, it was
expected, would overturn the Excise
law of many of the States, has been
disposed of by the United States Su-
preme Court by an opinion of which
the following is the substance
g The usual and ordinary legislation
of States regulating or prohibiting the
sale of intoxicabing liquors, raised no
question under the Constitution Of the
United States prior 70 the Fourteenth
Amendment of that instrument. The
right to sell such liquor is not one of
the privileges and immunities of citi-
zens of the United States, which by
amendment States are forbidden to
abridge, but if case were presented in
which person owning liquor or other
property at the time the law was passed
by q State absolutely prohibiting any
sale OF 1T, 1T would be very grave ques-
ton whether such law would not be
inconsistent with the provision of that
amendment which forbids State to
deprive any person of life, liberty, or
property without due process of law.
While the case before the court at
tempts to present that question, it fails
to do it, because the plea, which is
taken as true, does not state in due
form or positive allegation the time
when the defendant became owner of
the liquor sold, and secondly, because
the record satisfies us that this is a
moot case to obtain the opinion of this
court on grave constitutional question
without the existence of facts necessary
to raise that question in such case.
When the Supreme Court of the State
to which the writ of error is directed
has not considered the question, this
court will not feel at liberty to go out
of its usual course to decide"
Mr.. Justice Miller delivered the
opinion.

Parepa's Last Illness.

Private letters from London give
some further, particulars of the last ILL
ness of Nine. Parepa Rosa. On Christ
mas Eve she passed a long evening
singing the music of Elsa in "Lohen-
grin" She was taken sick the next
day and though at first after the birth
of her dead child she appeared to be
doing well, the symptoms soon became
30 unfavorable that Mr.. Rosa, who had
rejoined his opera company in the prov
inces, returned to London. Several
days before her death Madame Rosa
lost consciousness, and never regained
it, calling constantly ID her delirium
for her ,hild. The physicians express
the opinion that even if her life could
have been spared she would have re-
manned mere wreck, and possibly have
become blind.
