five; butter, two ounces; flour, ten
spoonsfui. Bakein cups. Sauce.
FISH CAKEs.-Take cold boiled cod,
either fresh or salt: add two-thirds as
much hot mashed potatoes as fsn, q

smooth paste; season with pepper;
make into nice round cakes, and fry
brown in sweet beef drippings or very
clear sweet lard.

To RESTORE THE HAIR AFTER ILLNESS.
Equal parts of best brandy and strong
black tea, shaken we'll together and
rubbed well into the roots of the hair
once daily, will usually restore the hair
after long illness. B. careful not to
scratch or irritate the scalp with rough
comb hing and brushing. The mixture
should be made at least once in three
days, even in cool weather.
Down EAST BREAD.-One and one
half pints sweet and very fresh milk,
lukeWarm; three tablespoonful yeast
in the milk, q scant teaspoonful soda

if it is at all sour, and little salt; add
flour while it stirs easily, and a little
-four on top at last, to prevent the
cloth from sticking; cover. and set it
in a moderately warm place to rise
over night. One pint of milk makes a
large loaf and q half pint makes q
dozen biscuit. In the morning roll
your biscuit and cut them, then place
before the fire to rise half an hour be.
fore baking. Allow your loaf, after il
is in the pan, to rise from one half an
hour to an hour, turning it round, sc
that it may rise evenly. This receipt
is equally good for Graham bread.

tices of se-caIed official patronage which have
to the sanction of usage in the several depart
ments of government, but change of the
system of appointment itsef-a reform that shall
be thorough, radical and com pete-a return to the
priu cples and practices of the founders of the
government They neither expected nor desired
from public officers any partisan service; they
meant that public officers should owe their service
to the government, and to the people; they meant
that the officer should be secure in his tenure as
| long his personal character remained untar-
nshed and the performance of his duties satisfac-
tory. They held that appointments to once were
not to be made nor expected merely as rewards for
partisan services, nor merely on nomination OF
members Of Congress, as being entitled In any re-
| spect to control of such appointment. The fact
| that both political parties of the country, in de-
carng their principles, prior to the election, gave
prominent place to the subject of the reform OF our
civil service, cognzing and strongly urging Its
n cessity i'll terms almost identical in their specific
| import with those have here employed, must be
acce pied conclusive argument IN DehaH OF these
measures. 1t must be regarded as the expression
of the united voice and will Of the whole country
upon this subject; and DO political parties are
virtually pledged to give it their unreseryed sup
| port.
| The President Of the United States of necessity
owes his election to office to suffrage and jealous
| labors of political party, the members OF wnlcn
cherish with ardor and regard as OF essential I'M
portance the principles OF their party
but he should strive to be always mlndfui OF the
fact that he serves his party best VINO serves MS

A YOUNG Bridgeport dry goods clerk
out Of 3 job got a situation in q meat
market. The other morning he stood
thinking DREAMY about his girl when q
lady entered and said, care these steaks
good?" "Splendid mum, wear you like
India rubber. Nothing slazy about our
goods, mum, last you long time, in
fact you can't make any impress :"
The recommendation of the absent
minded young man, who had got his
| two callings mixed in his abstraction,
was cut short by the hasty departure of
| the customer, who was not In board
ing house business, and therefore didn't
REQUIRE so much durability In her
steaks.-Bridgeport Standard.
The Turks have strange idea of

gendarme, enraged with the Christian
Mayor of the village of Brankortsi, Bull
garia, gave him severe beating, sad
died, and bridled him, and compelled
the poor wretch to carry him up and
down the street. He finally drove him
to the village inn, and throwing the
reins to the hostler ordered him to
walk the horse up and down. The
landlord ventured to interfere, but was
knocked down for his pains. The
soldier then ordered hay to be fed to
his steed, and the municipal Nebuchad
nezzar had to swallow it. The Turkish
officers considered this most excel
lent joke.

a sound was heard but the tramp of the
men as they moved in their places, or
the dull noise made by wagon or artillery
wheels. The orders were given in sub
dued tones, ,and as few lights as possible
were visible. It was a night of deep
suspense and oil eager hope for the SOL
diers who on the morrow were to be face
to face with the hated NJ Moslem. At dawn
on Wednesday morning the order to
move was given. Every man fell into
his place, and the WORK of crossing the
river in the face of the enemy was be-
gun.
A number OF boats had been collected,
and into these the first detachment
stepped, alter few encouraging words
from their officers. The boats were
pulled briskly out into the stream, and
made straight tor the Bulgarian snore,
| followed by the eager eyes Of their CON-
rades-in-arms. The troops composing
| this advanced guard were all picked
men, and finer or more soldierly set OF
fellows could not be seen. Their move
ment was observed from the Bulgarian
side. A heavy fire was opened on the
boats from the Turkish artillery. The
boats pushed gallantly on, however, and
as they neared the other shore the
Turkish infantry commenced vigorous
fusilade. Detachment after detachment
followed from the Russian side in boats,
and as they ran in toward the enemy's
position they returned the musketry fire
with good effect. The Russian batteries
meanwhile kept up a terrific cannonade
to cover the landing.
| AS the first boats dashed into the bank
the men leaped ashore with ringing
cheer. and Immediately formed a strong
skirmlsh line, to protect the landing
Boat after boat pushed in, and company
after company disembarked, and soon a
sufficient force was assembled to justify
an attack on the nearest Turkish posi-.
tion. The Turkish infantry were v!gor'
ously charged, and after brief but des.
perate struggle were driven from the
Landing place at the point OF the bayo
net. BY O'clock a whole brigade was
across, and the movement was kept uL
without a moment's interruption or de-
lay. Everything has been provided for
| with wonderful foresight, and the orders
of the commanders were executed will
the greatest promptness and precision
