our reporter was in error in relation to

this sum seems to us far below the re.

THE DANGERS OF PIES.
The Ruin and Death they have Brought
on Many Households.

DR.. Fl. V. Redfeld, who has been travelling
through the South, says: ga physician in
North Alabama, having a large practice in
the rural districts, and Of necessity stopping
among his patients, tells me that nineteen
out of twenty of the meals he sits down to
are of fried meat and hot bread; yet dyspep-
STA does not follow to the extent one would
suppose. He thinks they escape the disease
which such diet would seem to invite by the
outdoor life they live This physician says
that dyspepsia would be an unknown disease
in the Southern States If it was not for hot
bread and the frying pan.
"Army life during The late war cured more
dyspeptics than bullets killed. | asked this
physician why it was that in the Eastern
States, where hot bread as a steady diet is
almost unknown, dyspepsia was even more
prevalent than in the Southern States He
said that it was pie and cake which played the
mischief in that quarter Pie and cake worked
the same injury to the stomachs of the East
ern people that hot bread and the frying pan
did for the Southerners. If anything, It was
worse. He thought he would rather risk his
digestion upon Southern biscuit than New
England pie. The pie was the greater curse,
and annually killed more people by slowly
breaking down their digestive powers

ROUMANIAN JEWS.
why the Poorer Glasses of Rounania
- Dislike Them.


The Israelites of Spanish descent who in
habit the great towns are not in bad odor
with the population in general; but the same
cannot be said of those who, coming from
Poland, Galicia and Hungary, are in constant
intercourse with the poorer classes as inn
keepers or petty brokers. These are uni
yersally detested; but, as has been Incorrect
ly stated, on account of their religion, for the
Roumain, although an orthodox" is not
a fanatic, but, on the contrary. the most toll
Grant of men, but because of their wonderful
skill in swindling everybody with whom they
have any business relations. All sorts of inn
aginary crimes are imputed to them. and fire.
uuently the world Is shocked by the recital Of
some massacre of the Jews, perpetrated to
avenge the pretended murder of little chill
dren, sacrificed in the place of lambs at the
Feast of the Passover.
Still the Roumains can not do without
the Jews and hate them as they will, they
strengthen each day their commercial mo-
nopoly, at the same time that the Roumanian
code interdicts their acquisition of real estate
In this condition of affairs exist grave ele-
ments of future discord all the more redoubt-
able that they may afford a pretext to foreign
intervention. Already, If their valuation has
not been exaggerated the ubiquity OF
the Jews makes them out to be more numer-
Gus than they really are-the Israelites con-
stitute fifth part OF the entire population in
Moldavia. Their dialect is a German jargOn
mixed up with multitude of words borrowed
from every language in the East and this
very fact contributes not little to the detes-
tation in which they are held, as they are
looked upon as a species of forerunners of an
other invasion, in which the political indie
pendence of the country would be DESTROYED
