mends eggs for food. 1t says:
Excellent sandwiches may be
made of hard-boiled eggs and
brown bread and butter; eggs
spread on toast are fit food for
kings; a poached egg-that is
one dropped from the shell ill.,
to hot water-is not only clean
and handsome but a delicious
morsel; eggs are better favored
without salt or pepper, a little
sweet butter being the best
dressing; persons who eat eggs
freelymay live to the ofeighty
or ninety; and lastly eggs con,
tain much phosphorus, and are
the best food for those person:
who are deficient in brains.
The last idea is Of the utmOs

Louis Merchants Exchange. recon-
mending the formation of a ''Missis-
sippi Valley and Brazil Steamship
Company" in anticipation of the
early Improvement of Mississippi nav
lgation. He gives it as his opinion
that direct trade with Brazil would
be an immense benefit to the Valley
States, and that the establishment of
such line of steamers would at once
lead to vast interchange of products.
All the reasons urged in favor of the
proposed line of steamers apply
equally to Wilmington and Brazil line.
We, too, want an interchange of lead
ing products.

A PROPOSITION has been made by
Theo. Hamilton, of Baltimore, and a
member of Longstreet's old corps, to
Gen. Jos. E. Johnston, as president Of
the Survivors Association, says the
Savannah NeaOs, which is of interest to
our readers generally. The PROPOSE
ton of Mr.. Hamilton is to give thirty
five dramatic performances, by q COM
pany composed of the highest order
of talent, to be selected in New York,
six nights in each of the cities of Sa-
vannah, Augusta, Atlanta, Macon and
Columbus. A certain number of tick
cts are to be sold, at one admittance
to a performance, a fine engraving and
chance at prize of $4,000. The
plan was suggested to Mr.. Hamilton
by gentleman of Macon as an excel
lent method by which funds could be
raised for the children and widows of
Confederate soldiers. A general meet
ing of the subordinate organizations
OF the Survivors Association of Con-
federate Soldiers and Sailors " will be
held IN Macon during the State fair,
when, it is probable, the details of the
proposition will be accepted and the
plans perfected.

A correspondent OF the Columbus
(Ga.) Enquirer advocates the tstab
lishment of number Of small cotton
mills by the meanes Of the working
people of the South He suggests
that a given number of working peo-
pie subscribe SO much per month, say
five dollars, until fifty thousand dol
lars is reached, sum sufficient to
equip factory Of very respectable ca
pacity. such as would add many thous
and dollars to the permanent wealth
and resources Of the neighborhood in
which it might be located, and afford
to the working owners assured en-
ployment and support. OF course all
OF that number Of stockholders could
not be workers in a mill of that size,
bnt the ownership Of it would not COM
pei any one to give up employment
elsewhere. Neither do we mean to
say that only workers in factories
could protitably take stock It would
b q good invest ment for all working
men. The ownership of a large inter
est IL 1T by factory operatives would
be an assurance to other stockholders
that it would be intelligently and
economically managed. The establish
ment Of one snch mill by people of
slender means, and by payments SO
easily made. would surely lead to the
establishment of other. The idea
that only men of large capital can
build and own cotton factories
Is retarding their establishment
in the South. Let it be shown
by successful experiment that the
monthly savings of Woodworking peo-
pie will soon enable them, by their as
ISOLATED means, to build and operate
very respectable factories, and to make
money by it, and we would see others
exerting themselves to do likewise
The Indictment to saving which It
would afford would also be beneficial.
This Is the way that the business has
been started IN other manufacturing
communities growing from small De-
glnniDgs to 6 gantic proportions-and
IN this way we can soon add to the
business of the South vast industry
which by many natural advantages
rightfully belongs to our section.

A Washington dispatch says: " The
clerks of the interior department have
been assessed one per cent. on their
salaries for fund which is now be-
ing raised here to be used in the Ohio
campaign. AS the names of the higher
officials of the department appear on
the list as subscribers, the clerks who
have been called upon lack the cour-
age to refuse. All this is in direct
violation of the order of the President
prohibiting political assessments upon
the department employees. A person
al friend of the President stated to-
day that he should call his attention to
this matter, and inquire whether it
had received his sanction. It is not
probable, however, that the President
will interfere"
