PROPERTIES OF WHITE SUGAR.

In many cases white sugar has been en-
ployed as eficaciously in remedying drunk
enhesss as aliitionia. No rationale of a very
satisfactory thatnetet Has yet been adduc-
ed for the action Of SO simple a substance
as sr-a- under these circumstances, except
shat it serves to bring on a different fer
mentation than The existing one in the
stomach, and to nettraliie, by the fornia
tior of new compounds, the action of the
liquors. A curious fact has long been observ-
ed, namely; that the life OF anirttals which
breathe in water is incompatible with the
presence therein Of ever an ircomsiderabls
quantity of sugar. In some parts Of
Europe one of the methods pursued in the
preservation of fish Consists in removing
the viscera and sprinkling sugar oveI tie
interior, keeping the 6-h 10 a horizontal
position so that the sugar may penetrate
as much as possible. 1t is said that fish
prepared In this way can be kept complete
ly fresh for a long time, the SAW being as
perfect as if recently caught from the wat
er; aud salmon, especially, treated in this
manner before being sailed and smoked "a
tablespoonful of sugar to FIVE -pouBd fish
possesses a much more agreeable taste.

The Southern Republican Convention
-Oufrn.es Mnnfesl


From Washington press dispatch
of the 10th inst. we learn that a call
for a convention of Republicans of the
reconstructed States, to be held at
Chattanooga, Tenn, on the 18th OF
October, is being widely signed by
prominent Republicans. The call
says:
"All Republicans, whether of these
or other States, who will earnest seek
to maintain the principles on which
the Union was defended, to inaUgurate
which in the South reconstruction was
begun, and who feel an interest in the
preservation of law and order and the
rights Of citizenship, are invited to at
tend this consultation. All should
become possessed of the facts as to the
true condition in their respective local
tiles, so that an authoritative state
ment may be made to the country.
The Republicans of the South, equally
with good citizens of other sections, de
mand peace and security, that pros
perity may follow. Why these are
not enjoyed by them should be mani
tested by this convention. If there
are those anywhere who doubt us to
the purposes or capacity Of Southern
Republicans, or who believe the OPP
prcssions under which they are labor
ing have been magnilied, let them
come and see, and hear for them

While in a fit of ragged-edged de.
Spair over the riots in Kentucky and
Tennessee the Louisville CourierJour
nal threw up its hands and shrieked
that all hopes Of a Democratic victory
in the Northern States this autumn
were gone. Now that our contcmpO-
rary has regained its equanimity' il
will be mortified to see its extrava-
rance travelling the rounds Of the
Radical Press as Radical campaign
material. The truth Is that the Cour-
ier-Journal has been badly informed
as TO Northern sentiment on the
Southern riots question. 1t Is under
stood here that, though there has been
some uniustiiable lynching-similar
to that at Seymore, Ind, a few years
ago the majority of the riots in the
South this summer have been trivial
affairs and that nearly all of them
have been artfully magnified TO suit
the election purposes of the Radical
party. The Radicals have played
the Outrage" business once to often.

the Radical carpet-bag williams in the
South, are not going to have their
attention diverted again 10y the regu-

The citizens Of Louisiana

The citizens Of Louisiana, after
years of rapine and lawlessness upon
the part of the Kellogg government,
have taken the matter of their criev-
ances in their own hands and crushed
out the usurpers for the time being.
The people of Louisiana have endured
insult, robbery and every species OF
outrage known TO carpet-baggery until
forbearance had ceased to be virtue;
and now they assert their right to be
ruled by the men of their choice.
Those elected by the votes of the
people should rule the States, as well
in the South as in the North.
The shameless misrule in Louisiana,
the expressions and petty tyrannies
heaped upon her people, are bearing
legitimate fruit. 1t is the natural
result of reconstruction and its attend
ant evils in the South.

Condition of the Cotton CroD.

WASHINGTON, September Sep
TENDER returns of the department OF
agriculture show very heavy decline

all the States except Virginia, where
it about holds its own. The State
averages are as follows: Virginia, 9S;
North Carolina, 81, decline of - du-

decline of -; Georgia, II, decline
of II; Florida, II, a decline of %;

decline Of q; Texas, "a, d decline of
Al; Arkansas "A, decline Of 70; and
Tennessee, As decline of Sd. The
leading cause Of the decline is the
prevalence over large sections of the
cotton area of severe drought, accom-
panied by intense heat.
