turned or changed may be
swcctened and rendered fit for
use again, by stirring in little.
5. The salt will curdle new
milk; hence in preparing milk
poriidge, gfayies, etc, the salt

ginning to sour, will swccten if

Senator Jones, Of Nevada, said in
a talk with a reporter Of the Cold
Hill News, Of the Southern policy
of President Hayes:
The election Of President HAYES
was all that prevented General
Grant from pursuing the same
course. | know that six months
before the inauguration Of Hayes.
Grant had determined that the coli
ered voters Of the United States
could not be protected by United
States troops. Our government is
a peculiar one. 1t is founded on
the principle that the majority will
rule, and that the fact that it Is a
majority invests IL with power to
protect itself. In such a govern.
ment, il the majority cannot or
will not protect itself, it is almost
impossible 10 protect ii by any
agency OUTSIDE Of itself.

doing away with the army chaplain
as q regular staff officer, employing
ministers if the soldier when at

Of vessels are petitioning for their
removal on the ground that their
example is pernicious to discipline.

mean any Of it or remember any
of it."
