LOOK TO IT.

II il were known that any Of our butchers
openly, and with scarce any attempt at dis
euise. offered for sale meat which was OF
character calculated to breed disease, or if
anv of our bakers make regular habit OF
selling bread made from sour Or unhealthy
-four, there would be immediate and prompt
action taken by some one to arrest the
offender. It is, however, matter OF public
notoriety, that nearly every milkman In the
citv sells for milk deleterious compound,
which is apt to engender the most danger
GUS disease. Everybody knows this, and yet
no effort is made to put q stop to it.
People wonder how it is that, despite their
careful habits, they often have reason to COM
plain of the most unpleasant ailments, with
out ever thinking that they are drinking
something called milk, which is the source OF
half if not all of their trouble. Impure milk
will produce typhoid fever quicker than any
other cause, and will feed number Of other
equally dangerous complaints. Now that
summer is with US, it would be well to look
into this matter, lest it may be one of several
causes which will result in an unhealthy sea-
son for us. We earnestly invite the attention
of the authorities to this matter.

Christian bearing and his unsurpassed intsg-
Yity have endeared him to the people Of the
South, but the thought has never arisen,
either in their minds or in that or that of Mr..
Davis, Of presenting him As candidate for
the Presidency.
It is q fancy original to the Inter- Ocean and
papers Of that ilk, which are continually
searching about to find occasion to malign the
people of the South and the men they delight
to honor.
The manner in which the people OF Texas
treated Mr.. Davis is deemed by the Inter-
Ocean as conclusive evidence Of the still I'M
quenched hatred Of our people for the Union
and it's flag. We submit that the greatest de-
sire to provoke bitter feeling between the
two sections Of this country is to be found in
lust such articles as that in the Inter- Ocean.
This constant abuse heaped upon the names
of Southern men is indicative of spirit Of
relentless enmity worthy only of such organs
as the Inter- Ocean, and is as indecent as it is
unmerited and unprovokedL
We reserve the right in the South to enter
tain and to honor all great and good men as
we like, and when we like, even if they did
hold positions in the Confederacy, and shall
be pleased to welcome and extend hospitali-
ties to all such men, whether be they from the
North or South.

ANOTHER GOOD EXAMPLE.

Hon. N. Holmes Odeu, UemOcfaCc mem-
Der of Congress from the Twelfth District Of
New York, having been invited by the Secre-
tary of War to nominate cadet for the
United States Military Academy, has put up
the appointment for competition, and selected
a board of examiners. He believes that the
appointment should not be used by him for
personal objects, but that he should try to
carry out the intentions of the founders of
the academy by giving all the youths of his
district an equal chance for the prize of
frst-class military education. tits thought
full, just and public spirited action, which re-
fleets credit upon the member who, accord
ing to the usual bad custom, might have ap-
pointed relative without fitness or merit.
The more these good examples of Mr.. Odell,
Gen. Gibson and other worthy Democratic
Congressman are followed, the higher will
become the educational and moral standard
Of the academy, and eventually of the army.
annually stolen from the Treasury, Congress
might maintain National Civil Service Uni
versity, where d fi-st-class literary, scientific
and practical education should be given, free
of all expense, to pupils thousand or more
in number, selected by competition uniformly
and at stated periods from all sections of the
Republic, on the sole condition that, after
being duly graduated, they should be ready
to serve the government in any labor to which
they might be appointed. The yearly distri-
button by competition among all the boys in
the United States of hundred military,
hundred naval, and three hundred civil ca
detships, each guaranteeing to the aspirant
very complete education free of cost, would
give impulse and vitality to every school in
the country. Graduates not needed for pub
lie, CIVIL military or naval service would
readily find the work for which they would be
prepared.
The boy whose merit and hard study had
secured civil cadetship wonld feel for all his
lifetime the benefit of his early labor and
good conduct Perhaps the unhappiest youth
alive is the boy who feels that he has talent,
but is debarred by poverty from getting
suitable education. He is to be found in
every ward, village and neighborhood. It
would be great benefaction to all such if
allowed from time to time to compete for the
lordly prize Of free education.
A national free college would be of mo-
mentous benefit to the cause of education by
perfecting, shortening and cheapening text
books for schools in all branches; to science,
by gathering specimens, pursuing expert
ments and diffdsing the knowledge of dis
coveries; to the civil service, by furnishing
trained and trusty employees and
in many ways elevating the standard Of official
morality and capacity.

JEFFERSON DAVIS AND THE INTER
OCEAN.

The Chicago Inter- Ocean noticing the fact
that Mr.. jefferson Davis delivered the address
before the Texas State Fair, lately held at
Houston, and that he afterwards visited the
principal cities in that State, takes occasion
to search over the record Of every thing that
was said by Mr.. Davis, or his hosts, in order
to find some opportunity for INDUCING in its
fondness for disappearing the people Of
the South. It seems so strange to this paper
that we should entertain any respect for great
and good men of our own section, that the
least exhibition of our feeling causes it to
dilate its nostrils and scent afar off the "old
leaven Of rebellion"
If the people Of Texas choose to give pub
lilo receptions to Mr.. Davis, for whose nobility
of character and intellectual attainments they
entertain so high respect, it does not per-
force follow that they have concluded to
make him q party leader or place him on
their ticket for the Presidency. Yet the In
ter. Ocean concludes that Mr.. Davis is the
choice Of the Southern people as the success
sor of Grant. As proof of the correctness
Of their supposition they say that "neither
Allen, Thurman, nor Hendricks would re-
ceive any such attention from the Southern
Democracy"
Why will they endeavor to ring politics into
this matter? Nh. Davis's visit was of char
acter totally foreign to politics. He went to
Houston simply and solely for the purpose of
delivering the customary address at the an
nual Agricultural Fair. Yet the Inter- Ocean
deems this is fit occasion for it to indulge
in scurrilous remarks of his war conduct, as
it appears to them. Again, it says that "if
the people of Brennan focked to see Jeffer.
son Davis, they gathered to do honor to him
as public man, and as public man he rep
resents only the Confederacy-'the lost
cause"
The Inter- Ocean forgets, or possibly never
knew, that Mr.. Davis represented the State OF
Mississippi in the Senate Of the United States
ct time when it was an honor to be there,
and that he was universally regarded as one
of the ablest men in that body. So it does
not follow that if the reception at Brennan
was rendered him as . public man, it must
have been Is President Of the Confederacy.
Mr.. D,vis's service in the Senate was marked
by nobility Of purpose and strict adherence
to the principles of honor. and he never was
even accused of swerving from the strict line
Of truth and justice.
As q United States Senator Mr.. Davis won
the love Of every Southern gentleman, and If
his conduct Is President of the Confederacy
comes at all into the matter, it is that part Of
Il which served to develop the true diameter
II the man, and not the chieftain. His

MATERIAL FOR THE JETTIEs.

The steamer Bastrop, which arrived Monday
night from the Ouachita River, brought down
several samples Of rock from the Catahoula
Shoals. The idea is to invite the attention of
Capt. Eads to the value Of this rock as mate
rial with which to construct his jetties. The
shoals are few miles above Harrisonburg on
the Ouachita River and just about three hun
dred miles from our CITY,
The rock is in regular hills, extending fully
Eve miles, and in close proximity to the
waters edge. The river will at all times ad-
NIT of barges, no matter how heavily laden,
reaching these hills without difficulty.
The stone is a hard, and, apparently, very
endurable substance, and is said by many to
be just the thing for the jetties. We trust
Capt. Eads will give this matter the closest
attention, and if it is at all suitable to his
purpose, we submit thatth very little trouble
or expense necessary to ship it from the hills
to the mouth Of the river is great advantage
possessed by it over any stone yet offered. If
the necessary material can be procured 50
very near the point it is needed, the benefit
will not only be great to the builder, but Of
the greatest importance to US, and we trust
Capt Eads may ind it to his advantage to
use this home production in his works.

We have been questioned as to the retrench-

some specified time. We should be pleased
to ses such statements drawn up for, say
the month Of April last, and comparison
made between the expenditures of each de-
partment under the present and the last or

We believe such comparison will show
greatly to the advantage of the present gov
