Wellington has been censured for
want Of Judgment in selecting the plains
of Waterloo, as his battle ground,
French military critics contending that
the Duke fought the battle in a posi-
ton full of difficulty. This charge he
indignantly repealed, and, after thor
oughly generating himself, concluded
by saying: my plan was to keep my
ground till the Prussians appeared, and
then to attack the French position, and
I executed my plan"
Wellington was ever just to ward those
who opposed him. When asked what
he really thought of the Emperor Ma
poleon as great general, he said: st
have always considered the presence Of
Napoleon with an army equal to an ad
ditional force Of 10000 men, from his
superior talent and from the enthusl-
asm which his name and presence in
spired in the troops" On another
occasion the Duke also said
that he thought Napoleon supe-
rior to Turenne, Tallard, or
any of the old generals of former times;
but Napoleon had this advantage
over every other General, himself in
particular, that his power was unlimi-
ted. He could order everything on the
spot as he pleased. If he wanted rein
forcements; they were sent; if to change
the plan of campaign, it was changed;
if to reward services, he could confer
honors on the field of battle; whereas
he, the Duke, anu other Generals,
were obliged to write home to Minis
tiers, and wait their decision, perhaps
that of Parliament; and he himself had
never had the power of comforting the
slightest reward on any of his followers,
however deserving.

Turned Up.

About ten years ago Mr.. Thomas
O'Brien and his wife and seven-year old
child we're about to sail for Cuba, when
in the confusion consequent on embark
alton the youngster wandered away and
was lost. The other day fine looking
young man called at the house of Mr..
O'Brien-whe meantime had returned
to Jersey City-and greeted him as
father. The young fellow was immedi-
ately recognized and welcomed by both
father and mother. According to his
story, just as the vessel was about to
sail he had been enticed off by strange
man, who promised him some candy,
and carried him off to a farm in Ohio,
where he has since been working. There
would seem grounds to hope that Char
ley Ross will yet turn up all right, de-
spite the many disappointments expert
enced by the parents of the missing
boy.

A DOg.Eating Pauper.

The Pittsburg Gazette says that one
of the inmates of the Allegheny county
poor farm has developed mania for
dog flesh, and at every opportunity he
kills and eats the unfortunate dogs that
come in his way. He seems to delight
in this kind of food, though his lido
syncrasy was not discovered until he had
gratifed his remarkable taste, on the
sly, on several occasions. Quite recent
", when it was supposed he had out
grown this liking, and was contented
with such food as satisfies ordinary NOR
tails, it was discovered by Superintend-
ent Grubbs that he had been at his old
tricks. A farmer in the neighbo-hood
missed large and valuable Newfound-
land dog. No trace of the missing dog
could be found until day or two ago,
in an out Of the way place, the hide and
some other parts of the missing animal
were discovered. This man who has
such strong love for dogs-and whose
name, by the way, is Exler-was sus-
pected, and little probing induced
him to confess that he had caught the
dog and killed him, and used some parts
of the flesh for food.

Papers and Churches in Salt Lake

The editor of one of the Salt Lake
papers, writing to Rowell's Newspaper
Reporter, says: '"The citizens of Salt
Lake City do not appear to lack educa-
tional, commercial or religious facilities
to enable them to compete with other
cities, and, SO far as newspapers are
conce rned, there are few cities of 80, :
COO inhabitants which can boast of a
larger number. There are now pub
lished here two morning and three
evening dailies, two semi week lies, three
weeklies, four semi-monthlies and two
mon thlies-sixteen in all. We have
twenty seven places of worship, divided
among six or seven religious sects, with
sittings for nearly $4,000 people, and
there IS as much business actually done
here as.in many Eastern cities of 80, 900

latter carrying stock of merchandise.

The Usage Orange in Wagon Manufac
tire.

From the Stockton (Cal.) Independent.
We have been shown at the carriage
mandatory of William P. Miller set
of buggy wheels, the spokes of which
were made of Usage Grange wood. The
timber was cut from Captain Weber's
premises on the peninsula and the
place formerly owned by Smith Whiting,
corner of American and Lindsay streets,
and has been seasoning for about three
years. A specimen of the wood shown
us was trunk six inches in diameter
and showing sixteen concentric circles.
The wood is susceptible of high pol
ish; and while it is not probably as
tough as hickory, it is not SO liable to
shrink i'll dry weather or swell in wet
weather. This latter quality makes it
peculiarly adapted to our climate, al
though there is not yet enough grown
here to manufacture extensively. In
Arkansas and Texas. where this wood
is plentiful, it is commonly used in the
manufacture of wagons.

not seriously entertained by such a

creasing between >Biskra, Ain ell Quad

rising in proportion as one goes further
South. Then there are the sudden
changes of temperature at night.
Whilst at Biskra the night temperature
is proportionate to that during the day
time, it is notorious that more to the
South, the thermometer very frequent
~ falls below zero at sunset. Apart
from these excessive changes of tenn
perature, the climate of the desert is
considered perfectly healthy.

What to Eat.

An American lady. medically edu-
Gated abroad, and we'll acquainted with
the habits of the Scotch, English and
Germans, recently declared that she
thought the three curses of America,
and the primary causes OF its physical
deterioration. were eggs, butter and
sugar, in the form of cake.
In no country is the poisonous stuff
used to the same extent as with us. H.
fants lay the foundations Of future dys-
pepsia with it before they. leave their
mothers breasts; children are fed upon
it between their meals, to the destruc-
ton of all natural appetite; while
among schoolgirls it Stays more than
all the studies in the world.
The case of hundreds of Scotch stu
dents was cited, now becoming eminent
divines, who left home with barely
money enough to pay the rent of poor
room, and with bag of oat meal ON
their backs, returning vigorous, strong
men, remarkable for their powers of
endurance, mental and physical, their
food during their years Of probation
being oatmeal only, cooked by them
selves, the bag being replenished from
home as often as it gave out.
We use too much food in this coun-
try; we mix our oatmeal in the morn
ing with beef-steak, fried potatoes,
eggs, chops, fish. corn bread, hot bis
cult, and other convertibles in way
which deprives it of all it's virtue. Cat
meal must be made the principal dish
at breakfast, if it is to have any po-
tency, especially for children, for if
there are other and nore tempt
ing luxuries, they will not of
curse choose that; and to eat
little under protest, when the stomach
is already full of ill-assorted food, it is
to add insult to injury already inflicted
upon it.
"Crushed" wheat is winning golden
opinions as fine and healtbful article
of food, and as it requires three or four
hours cooking, it is particularly adapt
ed as warm dish for tea for children,
and adults also, in families where the
city custom of late dinners is not OBJ
served. 1t is usually made the consist.
ency of oatmeal, or Indian meal mush
with water and little salt, and left 50
simmer at the back of the stove or the
range, between the hours of mid day
dinner and tea, then eaten with new
milk only, exactly the same as oatmeal.
