Respecting Ones Dinner.

Barmecide feasts appear very nice as We
look over the bill of fare laid before the guests
at the famous dinner reported in the "Arabian
Nights but windy repasts on cold winter days
are not tempting, or at all satisfactory. Pyra-
mids Of smoking pillGa and charming claret,
as seen on tinted paper, are all very nice, but
they feel grest deal better when wrestling
with the gastric grip Of the inner man. 1t is
said that two thirds OF the world eat more
than they should, while the other third do not
tickle the palate with enough to nourish the
system properly. This makes it bad for the
whole three thirds, and makes an equalization
in the eating affairs of life quite necessary for
the sanitary relief OF the human race. Every
man should respect, idolize and enjoy his din
ner. To respect ones dinner is far more neces-
ssry for human enjoyment than are the other
two. There is far greater knack in respect
ing ones dinner than there is in idolizng 1t as
it is spread in sumptuous array before ole on
the festal board, or in enjoying it as the morsels
tickle the palate in their transit to the abode
of the inner man. To respect dinner requires
prudence in mastication and selection. The
selection is always to be made in accord
ance with the temperament and physical
condition of the person making the choice.
While mince pie and fried gudgeons meet
and associate with the digestive organs of Mr..
German in sweet harmony and good feelings,
they will pick nightmare up By the nspe of
the neck and set him down on the bosom of
Mr.. Uneasy and make his night pass in rest
less and broken sleep. A great many more
die of surfeit of good, but indigestible food,
than they who lack food to digest, But few
can be found, however, who would rather die
for the want of food than for the reason of
too much OF it. Better die of feasting and
good company than of slow starvation. There
is really more satisfaction of being one of the
jovial sort, who indulge in too much practice
on the cup and platter and die from the course,
than to gradually waste away on sour misan-
thropy and much milk and water. Eminent
physicians tell us that the want of respect for
ones dinner has killed more men, and is kill
ing more to day, than all the other causes of
death combined. This statement is no dodge
in the interests of the inner man, but a posi-
tive fact, and one which the mince-pie and
fried potato-eating public. of America should
learn to respect.

Who Shall Couut the Vote:

James P. Root, in an able article written
for the Chicago Tribune, on the subject of
counting the electoral vote, says: SIT evidently
was not the intention of the trainers of the
Constitution to give Congress the power to
count President in or count him out. They
wisely kept this power away from Congress.
They never intended to turn Congress into can
wasting board, or give itpower to act as legis-
lGtorS in the premises. The words, 'R The pres
ence Of are all that expresses any idea with
reference to the power, position or status of
the two Houses. There is not a verb in the
sentence relating to Congress. a verb is a
word which signifies to be, to do or to suffer-
l have no doubt but that the House TiU suffer;
but, without predicate in the sentence relat-
ing Congress, lrdt is tito do? fail to discover
how the words, in the presence Of confer any
power or authority upon the two Houses, either
of a legislative or ministerial character.
The President Of the Senate is a constitu-
tional officer, performing constitutional duty.
He does not act as a mere presiding officer.
The two Houses can do nothing as a joint
body. As joint body they can have no pre-
siding Officer; they can have no clerk, and
consequently can make no record. Having no
officers in common there can be no certificate
of their joint proceedings. Who would GER
tify to the election of President in a case
where the joint session undertook to do the
canvassing: Where would the result be en-
tered. and by whom and who would declare
it? Is it TO be presumed that the President of
the Senate, who ordinarily is the Vice Pres-
dent, the second highest officer in the country,
and sometimes the SUCCESSOR to the President
is there simply to slit open the envelopes with
pair CT shears, or pen-knife, and pass them
over to-nobody knows who: Is he there
simply to hand things to somebody-to act as
a janitor, or waiter, whose only function is to
bring in something, sweep out, and draw
corlis ~

CousDfrators I'm Iouisfaua,

The Republicans of Louisiana mean bust
ness. They propose TO protect themselves in
the exercise of the rights which they secured
at the last election Militia is being rapidly
formed, and is under the command of General
Longstreet. An order has been issued holding
all the present funds in reserve for defensive
purposes. The Inauguration of Nichols will
not be mGlested with, but the State Offices will
be protected from occupation by the revolu-
tionists. If Mr.. Tilden's friends desire to
open the ball by inaugurating revolution in
Louisiana, it is theirs to choose, and theirs
will be the consequence. The firing of one
revolutionary gun, one act of violence, may
plunge Louisiana into civil strife such as
would chill the nation. This dual local State
government is simply the first step in the
great schemes OF the Democratic conspirators
to establish = dual National Government.
These things, as there is loyalty on earth and
justice in heaven, will be nipped in the bud at
the proper time by the strong hand of national
power. Conspirators, mark you we'll Grant

SnmafhinRA bOuf War.

While the boisterous Bourbon braggarts of
the North are talking war they should re-
member that war is exceedingly expensive.
If they inaugurate hostilities where are they
going 10 get their money from: They Ger
tainly cannot expect to draw It from the Ma
ticnal Treasury: neither can they get the
sanction or support of the Government in
making foreign loans. Capitalists in this
country are not such blind fools as to sub
scribe to Democratic war fund, when all
the fighting Democrats are Southern men,
and are throwing their influence on the side
of peace. The peace Democrats are the North
ern Democratic; at least whenever grim-visaged
war appears in an earnest and threatening at
titude they become very scarce and hard to
find. When we take all these things into con-
eideration the war cloud grows very small. 1t
is not even as large as lady's hand.

POLITICAL NOTES.

Mr.. Julian is too modest to say much about the
wounds Of Eliza Pinkston.
Ben Hill says: ~ am brave enough to want
peace and he is willing to let the fiery Fer
nando hear him say it.
II Cronin received o., coo for organizing himself,
how much did Governor Grover get for giving
him chance to organize?
Mr.. Blaine is unanimously renominsted, with
such demonstration OF goodwill as no son of
Maine has ever received before. Garry the news
to DIulligan.
The question, If there is any, is between Cover
nor Hayes and the President of the Senate. TIL
den is dead issue. His hackers know that
we'll as anybody, and only keep up the talk
about his claims for the purpose of selling out on
better terms.
The Democratic ardor for private dispatches
will be apt to cool now that the search has found
a trail leading directly to the Tilden barrel of
money. The Oregon operator Will have the sup
port OF every reformer In the land in his refusal
TO divulge the secrets Of his office.
These Democratic authorities leave the Democ-
racy only one acknowledgements election. But
jected by a people already taxed to death and
worn out in all their business relations In conse-
quence Of q Democratic rebellion.
The men who are making themselves hoarse by
shouting .sTilden is elected" and demanding his
Inauguration without further question, offering
as the only alternative bloody civil war, are
practically without followers. They have no
character and little influence, and their number
is comparatively Insignificant.
What the American people now ask and de-
mand OF Congress is that 1t dispose Of this Ques-
tion promptly and conclusively; that 1t be dis
posed Of in q constitutional way and at the con-
stitutional time; and that the energies of the
Hayes, to expend themselves in the legitimate
channels of business, trade and commerce.

Rull.DGzing.

Some of the fiery zealots Of Democracy are
daily heard to complain of the Returning
Board of Louisiana casting out the votes of
parishes and precincts because of "intimlda-
ton and violence" though this has been un-
deniably done under a law of that State, and
a law, TOO, of Democratic origin. The law,
too, has been denounced as unwise and oppres-
sive. Now we doubt whether ''bull-dozing"
will ever be effectually put down in that IN
fortunate Commonwealth except by just
such law. What would our complain
ing demagogues of the present day have
said in the days of the incompatible
Alfred OF England, had they then been liv-
ing and portion of his subjects, in reference
to the famous edict of that most wise and
benefcent monarch which made every hun
drcd in England corporately responsible for all
crimes of a certain character committed
within its limits7 This very edict has been
much praised both by historians and lawyers,
and its effect was unaeniably most salutary,
for It is recorded that its restraining influence
over the Commuters of larceny was such that
in a short period after the issue of the edict
robbery on the highway became unknown in
the English realm, and a purse might be hung
up at any cross-road in England for an in
definite period without any mans desiring to
lay dishonest hands upon it.

they were not divided in death. They died the

which she had written and he had composed bios
