RaisIns.

SPAIN is the greatest producer of raj
sins. Those styled Valencia raisins find
great favor with all classes of English
people. A few years ago crop of II 900
tons, for the supply of the world, was con-
sidered large; now London receives 12 900
tons out of a total of 10000 tons that are
grown. These raisins also find large
market in the United States and Canada.
The improvement in the article most OBJ
seTvable of late years is that of removing
the stalk before shipment. AS no useful
purpose has been found as yet for the
stalks, they are generally burned. Mus
catel or table raisins from Malaga vary
widely in quality. They are known as
"layers," "bunch" and "loose" raisins,
the best being picked from the stalk.
This sort is largely used in America. The
finest growths of Muscatels come to this
country in decorated boxes, with colOrcd
paper and lace edgings, increasing the
expense of packing to the extent of $125
per ton.
The Sultana raisins produced in Turkey
are cured in the sun, a slight sprinkling
of oil being employed to prevent the too
great evaporation of the moisture, and
also to assist in the preservation of the
fruit when packed and shipped. The Ger
mans are also large consumers of these
raisins, and they constitute an article of
considerable traffic between Trieste and
Smyrna. The Eleme raisins are also pro-
duced in Turkey, and are used chiefly for
export to distant colonies and for ships
stores. AS their name implies, they are
picked raisins, and are packed specially
for ship use from the vines of the Cara
bOurna and VOurla districts in Asia Mi
nor. The greater portion of the raisins
from Smyrna are known as Chesme,"
the name of an island near the main land
These are the Turkey grapes, pure and
simple, without selection, picking OF
stalks, or any manipulation whatever
They find ready market in Eastern
countries, but are the special feature OF
fruit trading between Turkey and German
ports. There are vast districts In Persia
where raisins are cultivated, but the diff
Guilty of getting them TO market Is SC
great that it does not pay to export, con
sequently they are used for distilling and
for local purposes. AT the Cape of Good
| Hope raisins are produced which find &
market chiefly in Australia. DistillatioI
from fruit is annually increasing, and the
supply for this purpose is the black raisin!
of THrkey. These are small grapes cult
vated without much care, but full of sac
charine. They are much valued by wine
makers, and form the stock on whicl
much of that agreeable beverage i
| founded. Much also is used in the manu-
facture of spirituous drinks at the plac
of growth. This raisin has of late year
been used in the wine districts of Franc
and in Paris.

TO Pickle Beef for Winter or Present
Use, and for Drying.-Cut the beef
into suitable pieces, sprinkle a little
salt upon the bottom of the barrel; pack
the beef without adding salt, and when
nicely packed, pour over it a brine made
100 pounds of beef in sufficient cold water
to cover it. In three weeks such pieces as
are designed for drying will be ready to
hang up by soaking them over night TO
remove the salt from the outside. This
pickle will keep beef just right for boiling
or even frying by slightly freshening it;

must be repacked and new and stronger
brine added TO it.-Hedrth and Home.

Bismarck Congratul q ted.

The lucky Chancellor Of the German En-
pire, in response to the Fluctuations of the
good people of Kissingen, stated that ''the
attempt on his life was not aimed at his per-
son but at the cause he represented" A little
consideration might have convinced him that
the blow was directed against both But even
in so simple matter as this the Chancellor
wants to make the most capital off his
enemies. He has been very lucky and may
well congratulate himself and his friends on
his escape This is the second time his life
has been attempted, and there is great prob
ability that it may not be tho last. Men like
Bismarck make lasting enemies. His open
war on Catholicism places him in q very
dangerous position, for religious fanaticism
will carry man to greater lengths than
even political hate. The arrest of .
priest at Schweinfurt seems to point to
connection between the assassin and the
Church. Even if there were no real con-
nection it would be to the interest of the Chan
cellor to lay the crime at the door of church.
men in order to excite against them the
strong. national feeling of the German
nation. Under these circumstances the allie
cation that churchmen were at the bottom of
the plot to kill Bismarck should be received
with caution.

The Works OF Public Improvement IN
tho City.

The Works Of Public Improvement IN
tho City.
The report called forth by . resolution a
the Board Of Aldermen in relation to Gus
works OF public improvement shows that in
this direction, at least, we have benefited by
o reform in the administration. The cost Of
the maintenance of streets, roads, avenues,
aqueducts, reservoirs, Croton pipes sewers
and public buildings, and for gas and sup
plies, in which the great leakaRes generally
occur, has been largely reduced since the over
throw Of the old Ring. The expenditure I'M.
der this head in 1871. under Tweed manage
ment, was over three million dollars, while in
1872 it was only one million eight hundred
thousand dollars. and in 1873 four hundred
thousand dollars less than in 1872. The az.
penditure under the assessment fund debt waa
also one million dollars less in 1873 than in
1871, and under the permanent debt for con-
struction one million three hundred thousand
less. At the same time the fact that the SER
vice is more efficiently rendered under thu
present regime is shown by the increased re-
ceipts for water rents penalties, 30, which
are nearly two hundred and fifty thousand
dollars more in 1873 than they were in 1871.
We have always condemned the false econ
omy of stopping necessary public improve
ments and thus blocking the progress and
prosperity Of the city. The investments w
make in we'll considered and needful works
have always been and will always be found re-
munerative in the end The Central Park,

ture that was certain to run the city into ruin.
Gus debt, yet the increased value it has given
to property has more than repaid all it's cost.
The splendid boulevards and avenues in the
upper part Of the city will have the same effect
in the end, and it is false economy to embar.
rass and delay their completion. It is little
singular to find that the principal uptown inn
provements, which are now almost daily do
nounced by Comptroller Green as extravaganza
and unnecessary sources of expenditure, ener-
mously increasing the public debt were in
fact mostly projected and commenced by him.

! probably hundred per cent to the contractor,
thousand dollars q work which should
have cost three times that sum. The Middle
field dam, which was swept away on Saturday,
! is another example of similar recklessness and
folly. All our enterprises are characterized
by like disregard of security and endurance,
and it is not impossible that for century the
imperfections of the present epoch will
avenge themselves by long series of ever re-
curing calamities.
Before We turn away from subject, the
burden Of which will to-day astound the
American people, holding up TO them as does
this second Chicago calamity another terrible
vision of their own recklessness and the in
stability of all their works, we cannot but
rebuke the spirit that belittles the conse-
quences of this conAagration- 1t is grin in
the face of Death to say that Chicago will be
better off in the end for this second
visitation. Such utterances are only born Of
madness and despair and We fear for the
gloom that will settle down upon a city SO
fair to the eye and yet SO sadly and terribly
unfortunate. As we 60 to press we know not
what fate is still in store for unhappy Chicago,
and we can only trust that our fears, which
seem only too well founded, may not be re-
allied.

The city Debt and the Expenses OF

A"e wy Debt and the Expenses OF
the Municipal Government.
The rapidity with which we have been
pihng up the city debt during the past three
years. despite the stagnation in public i'm
provements and the largely increased amounts
raised annually by taxation, is sufficient to
excite the serious alarm of property owners
and taxpayers. Three years ago, when the
people became satisfied that they were being
robbed by almost every city and county
Official, they supposed they had discovered
the secret of their large public expenditures,
and when they applied tho remedy by electing
reform government they believed that the
burden of debt and taxation would thenceforth
be lightened A glance at our financial con-
dition for the past twelve or thirteen years will
best illustrate how far these expectations have
been realized Our yearly appropriations for

SCHOOL CHILDREN FErED. William
Butler Duncan, the we'll known banker, has
set an example in throwing open his beautiful
grounds to the school children for one day,
which we hope will have many imitators.

Mr.. Duncan 1t is worthy of notice that not
single instance Of misconduct occurred on the

70 appropriate some of the beautiful flowers
by which they were surrounded must have
been pretty strong. Acts of kindness of this
nature leave pleasant impressions on the
young people and exert an elevating in

The BEEcHER- TnToN SCANDAL.-This IN
happy affair drags on its way in the columns
OF the newspapers. 1t is still all vagueness
and conjecture, though the Investigating Com
mittee are taking evidence which will enable
them to deal with the scandal so far, at least, as
Plymouth church is concerned. 1t is evident
that the efforts to explain away the charges
that have been limited rather than made will
not be successful Before the present contro-
versy comes to an end the whole story will
certainly be made known 1t would be better,
therefore. to face the issue at once whatever it
may be, and SO put end to the very un-
pleasant discussion going on from one end to
the other OF the country on this most regret

In accordance with his previously expressed
intention of returning to Ireland without the
permission of the British authorities, Mr.. John
Mitchell sailed for England yesterday on board
the Idaho. Although there was large assem-
blage of his friends and political associates
no formal demonstration was attempted.
Some apprehension was expressed lest the
British authorities should arrest Mr. Mitche |
on his arrival It would not be diff
and it is questionable whether the conserva-
tive government will be able to refrain from
seeking vengeance on man who, ut one
time, was certainly o dangerous insurrectionary
leader. More than twenty-fv years have,
however, passed since then, and though Mr..
Mitchell has never abandoned his position of
hostility to the English connection the gen.
Grafton of Irishmen that acknowledged his
leadership has passed away. Mr.. Mitchell re-
turns to his country broken in health, though
still defiant It is understood that he will not
Immediately enter the political field, but will
take counsel with other prominent Irishmen
before venturing on the troubled sea Of Irish
politics. We have little doubt that the British
government, with that profound wisdom which
distinguishes it, will allow Mr.. Mitchell to land
without interference, and that SO long as he
conducts his political campaign within the
law he will be allowed to enjoy the fullest
liberty. In view Of the amnesty granted to
other leaders of the '48 movement the gov
eminent cannot well arrest him, and, even if it
could. it would not be wise course to adopt.
Prosecuted, Mr.. Mitchell would be regarded as
martyr, and his power for annoyance would
be largely increased.

DEFEAT OF THE FRENCH MINISTRY
French government has been again defeated
in the Assembly. This time majority of
one hundred and six was rolled up against
the Ministry. This significant check was
caused by the proposition to increase the tax
on salt which was rejected by an over
whelming majority. During the debate
Rouher, the leader Of the imperialist
party. attempted to speak, but was hooted
down by the Left. This rather cavalier treat
ment was due to the discovery of the Bona
partist plot, which fortunately never came to
anything. The government investigation is
gradually duplicating all the prominent Bona
partists and considerable uneasiness is
felt among that faction. So far
the Minister of Justice has not yet taken any
proceedings against the persons implicated in
the conspiracy, but there is reason 70 believe
that they will be brought to trial. Judging
from the temper of the Left, the prosecutions
are not likely to be allowed to flag. 1t is
kind of poetic justice to see the Bonapartists
punished with their own weapons.
