tive Foster Called upon tue President
today aud had long interview with
him. Tho main object 81 bis call, il
is understood, was to discnSs Ohio pol
tiles. Poster says that the President is
certainly in favor Of the reconciliation
Of silver. Upon boing asked il tho Sec.
retnry OF tho Treasury did not disagree
Will the president Oh this point mud
upon the methods OF resumption, Eos.
ter replied: '!Not necessarily, for tho
reason that he did not understand that
Sherman had reached any dpRuito con-
clusion for the remoRetizatioH Of sill
ver." Foster thinks Sherman is lit.
tle in doubt rs 10 What policy ogglt to
be pprsuel in this regard. and that he
might DO inclined to favor making tho
silver lullnr legal tender for limited
amount, soy $50. It is the opinion Of
several persons who hove talkca with
the President on tho subject within the
past few days that he will recommend
to Congress that the silver dollar be
mnde legal tender OH equal terms with
gold or for some limited amount.
Tho 7HiJuHe's Washington special
says: Tho President is pleased with
Mvrton's letter. TO hnve undertaken
the support of Packard with tho army
would have been futile, aud its failure
disnsterous. At tho same time, the
President did not ngree with Morton us
to the position ana purposes OF the
Southern people. he did not share
Morton's distruGt OF Southern leaders;
bAt he DECLARES TINT whatever may hap
pen IN tho South now, tho Republican
party cannot DO held responsible for it.
Tho South is in the hands OF tho DEM
ocrRts, and that party alonp must be
held responsible fer tho conduct OF
public nffnira, The President snys he
has always boon Republican aud Is
ono now, nnd that The Republican par.
ty was never moro necessary to the ma
lion than II Is to-day. Tho language OF
tho President showed very clearly that
he did not favor now party organiza-
ton. and would not DO likely to give
any such mnv0nent his aid.

A Ronne.BOnche.

A skillful free luncher in Syracuse has
been in the habit for some time past of
walking into certain saloon and helping
himself to q particular choice bit Of
turkey exposed to view on the meat table,
twisting it off the body of the fowl and
examining it into his mouth whole. A
day or two since one of the attendants
there doctored this coveted morsel by
splitting it open on the under side and
inserting teaspoonful of cayenne
pepper. The fellow came in rs expected,
and on going out pounced upon his
customary game and made a single
mouthful of it. The result may well be
imagined; it was fearful scene all round,
though more painful to the chief actor
than to the spectators.

Eggs as an Article of Diet,

There is no article of food more whole
some and nutritious than that supplied
by eggs. There is a difference in their
flavor and quality, owing to the differ
ence i'll the diet of the birds; yet there
are no eggs of winged creatures which
are unfit for nourishing the human body.
Their chemical composition is nearly the
same, for the white and yolk are almost
invariably present; and these consist, in
the first case, of albumen and water.
Eggs require for digestion about as
much time as mutton-that is, from
three to four hours. They are most
readily digested when boiled until the
white becomes partially consolidated.
An ordinary hens egg weighs from
one and half to two ounces; ducks
egg from two to three ounces, the egg
OF the sea gull and the turkey from three
to four ounces, and the egg of the goose
from four to six ounces. The solid mat
ter and the oil in the ducks egg exceed
those in n hens egg by about one-fourth.
According to DR.. Edward Smith, in his
treatise on "Foods," an egg, weighing
an ounce and three-quarters, consists of
100 grains of carbon and eighteen and
three-fourths grains of nitrogen, or
10. 25 per cent. of carbon, and two per
cent. of nitrogen.
A writer in the Scientific Farmer e.
Inmates that the value of one pound of
eggs as food Tor sustaining the active
forces of the body is to the value of one
pound of lean beef as 1594 to 900. As
flesh producer, one pounl of eggs is
about equal to one pound of beef.
A hen may be calculated to consume
one bushel of corn yearly, and to lay
twelve dozen or eighteen pounds of eggs.
This is equivalent to saying that three
and one-tenth pounds of corn Will pro-
duce, when fed to n hen, one pound of
eggs. 4 pound of pork, on the con-
trary, requires about five and one-third
pounds OF corn for its production. When
eggs are twelty-four cents dozen, and
pork ten cents pound, we have bushel
OF corn feed producing 81 SO worth of
eggs and $l.05 of pork.
Judging from these facts eggs must be
economical in their production and in
their eating, and especially fitted for the
laboring man in replacing meat.

Prof. Tyndall's Warning.

In concluding an address to the students of
University college Oondon), Prof. Tyndal who
is unquestionably one of the most indefatigabe
brain workers of our century, said "fTake
care of your health. Imagine Hercules as oars
man in rotten boat what can he do there but
by the very force of his stroke expedite the ruin
Of his craft. Take care of the timbers of your
boat The distinguished scientists advice is
equally valuable to all workers. We are apt to
devote all our energies To welding tho oars our
strokes fall firm and fast. but few of us examine
or oven think of the condition of our boats until
tho broken or rotten timbors suddenly give way

The National Life Insurance Company ol
the United States of Americn.

In marked contrast with the unpleasant developments
that have appeared recently concerning certain
MES we are glad to note the results of official eKami
nation OF this Company. Although having a charter
direct from Congress- it does attempt disavow it's
responsibility to State insurance laws.
BY mutual agreement, behalf of the State depart
ments of New York, Massachusetts,, Pennsylvania and
Michigan, the Hon Samuel H. Rowe of the latter State
commenced on January sth rigid examination of the
books, assets and liabilities of this Company. Commits
sioner Rowe assisted by Prof. Watson the we'll
known actuary and V. H. Lott, Esq.
The detailed examination continued without interrup-
tion until the 10th of February The results highly
gratifying to the friends of the Company and the public
from Commissioner Rowe renewal Of its authority to do
business in Michigan, together with his written
ance that he found the Company able to comply fully
with the string laws of his State The entire
invested in United States bonds and first mortgages
On the 3st OF December, 1876 it had grand surplus
above all liabilities of 81 335 Its receipts in 1876
exceeded its disbursements by 800 900, although it
paid in death claims nearly quarter of million dollars
More perfect security could not be offered to insurers

Communists in Russia.

The London Posts st. Petersburg
letter says The condemnation of the
youthful demonstrators before the Kasan
cathedral has been followed bay suit
against $50 persons of both sexes for
secret brotherhood, the circulation of
reasonable writings, and preparatory
steps for commmistic revolution. In
vestigations by a special committee of
the Senate, which create great sensa-
ton, prove that well-organized plan
existed, based on the principles of the
International Social Democrats. As an
instance of the significance attached to
the trial, Prince Gorchakoff despite his
ailments and laborious duties, has a.
ready appeared twice in court to watch

for murder in Paris, were 30 exceedingly
deferential to the prisoner, that the
Charicayf pays its respects to them as
follows: 80, my good friend, you nc
knowledge having killed your wife ?"
"Yes, judge" Permit me to observe
that you were perhaps a little too rough
in opening her throat with razor" II
was, judge" II would suggest, then,
il you marry again, that it will be better
not to have razor in the house." 81
will promise you, judge" "Do my
questions fatigue you? If so, we can
postpone the case until tomorrow. "
They do not, judge. / would prefer
having verdict to-day. I am very un-
comfortable in prison" "You are un-
comfortable Why did you not let me
know :? L could have sent You to coun-
try house L have near Paris, and every
Sunday we could have gone fishing to-
gether."
