PRISCELY IlIMI;I'G IN GERMANY.

Nine ont of ten intelligent Americans

They believe, because the names of these

that they were the real directors of the

is no such delusion in Germany, writes a
newspaper CORES spondcut. If the German
armies had been left to the guidance of
these perSonagcS, the sum total of the cam
paign would have been vastly different.
They never directed movement, not the
dcployiug of Il corporals guard. Moltke
and his staff conceived and executed every
detail of every movement, the princes not
being trusted with the most inconScquent
point. The chief Of the staff Of each army
was its actual commander, the royal princes
serving merely as tigme-hcads to impress
the people with their depend nee upon

This includes the black labor of the South, where from SS to $1O.7j is paid, South Carolina paying the least In Mas sachusetts S20.25 is obtained, in Maine $l5.94, in Vermont Sl9.37, in Penn sylvania Sl6.lO, in the prairie States from l6to r., in the old "border States" SIP to Sl4, in California 2S,6O, and in Wyoming $32.jO.

Best Water for Household Uses.

Dr. Voelcker of England, according
 to one of our exchanges, Is the author of the following, and as the quality of water is important to every person,
 We give it:
 Water, suitable for all domestic purposes. should not contain an excess of saline and earthly matters, and, generally speaking, not more than about 25 grains of solid substances in the imperial gallon. The less lime and magnesia salts it contains the better it Is for washing or cooking, or the generation of steam in boilers. A moderate amount of mineral matter, or even a, sufficient amount os earthly carbonates to render water decidedly hard. does not interfere with its use as 8 beverage, for 1t may be safely stated that no sufficient grounds exist for believing that the mineral contents of ordinary hard spring waters are injurious to health. The amount of lime and magnetism salts in chalk springs, and in waters having their origin in calcsreous strata, must be greatly exceeded in general by the quantity of the same salts which enters the system in solid food; and it is notorious fact that chalk springs, which seldom contain less than 15 or Is grains of carbonate of lime, are universally considered to furnish perfectly whol,som and. indeed, the choicest drinking water.

 leading American race horses won
 prizes during tbe season of 1875, to amount of $372, 5S3- The winning horses numbered 273 and their win nings averaged little over sl,364 per horse. The highest eleven won as follows: McGrsth' coltt Aristides named in honor of Aristides Welch) } SIG. zoo; Chawberlin's colt, Tom OchiItree, sl1,OOO; Relmont's lilly.
