PERMANENT WHITEwAsH.-W With
the return of spring comes the usual
inquiries for good whitewash. We
have only to repeat the following
directions given below, as follows:
Take half a bushel of unslacked
lime, slake it with boiling water,
covering it during the process to
keep in the steam; strain the liquid
through a fine sieve or strainer, and
add to it a peck of salt previously
we'll dissolved in water; three
pounds of ground rice boiled to a
thin paste, and stirred in boiling
hot; half a pound of Spanish whit
ing, aud pound OF clean glue
which has been previously dis
solved by soaking it first, and
then hanging over a slow fre
in small kettle inside a large
one filled with water; add five gal
Ions of hot water to the mixture,
stir we'll, and let stand few days
covered from dirt. 1t should be
put on quite, hot; for this it can be
kept in a kettle on furnace. A
pint of this mixture will cover a yard
square of the outside of house, If
applied with large paint-brush.

whether 1t be q recent attack. or n

will cure a cough In onc.half the time
necessary to cure 1t with any other

It up. but by removing the cause, sub

HOME INVESTMENTS.

[From the Nashville Commercial Reporterl
Referring to several articles pub.
lished by us in regard to home in
vestments several months ago, when
we urged our readers to invest in
our State bonds, they were then
quoted in New York at 20 to rs
cents, and are now strong at so to
81 cents. Outside of the profit that
might be made in buying and hold
ing these bonds as an investment, it
would be an incentive to our honesty
and integrity as a State to come for
ward and pay our obligations, as we
as State, are amply able to do.
The State debt of Tennessee is small
and very easily managed, and is in
no way bnrdensome and if the bonds
were held by our own people. the
little one-hOrse lawyers, and self
opinionated little politicians who are
in the habit of representing US in the
Legislature, would not dare to get
up and talk repudiation and dishon-
esty, as they would then touch the
pockets of their masters. Tennes-
see bonds. that are now worth so to
81 cents in New York, have $500 in
past due interest attached to the
bond. so that you really get 81 800
for 5000 There is nothing that adds
more to the individual credit of the
citizens Of a State, than for the
state they live in 10 promptly and
honestly meet her obligations. We
believe that Tennessee will in the
future continue to do what she has
commenced-pay the interest on her
bonded debt-and for this reason
we recommend them to our readers
as safe and good investment.

GOING TO UNLOAD.
[From the N. Y. SUM-

LETOIn bu0 NJ L. Ouusl
A strange report reaches us from
Washington. It is to the following
effect:
President Grant has become terri
fed at the effect of the Sanborn
swindles and the meiety exposures
upon his own standing and prospects.
He thinks Butler is a good append
age to part with, aud Senator Conk-
ling he loves no longer. He has re-
solved upon dismissing Richardson,
Sawyer, and Banfeld all at once.
He is likewise looking forward to
other changes in the Administration,
but these will first be made. At the
same time lie has made friends with
Morton and Logan and the Southern
men, and sees that imitation is popu-
lar.
Richardson is to be succeeded by
Columbus Delano as Secretary of
the Treasury, while j. w. Douglass,
now Commissioner of Internal Reve-
nue., expects to be Assistant Secre-
tary in place of Sawyer. Mr.. Ban
field will doubtless be succeeded by
some one among the members or re-
lations of the Delano family.
Whether this programme will real
ly be carried into effect or not is un-
certain, for what mind he has Gen.
Grant changes often.
