unwarrantably as d candidate for the NOM

CONCERNING the mean schemings and paltry
3ichers of the Secretary Of the Treasury the
Iureka Leader of Friday last expresses itself
III the following pungent vein:
The Treasury is still feeding out its dis
parchss about the Hurculean difficulty of
setting silver into circulation and keeping it
there. and what, pray, asks the Cincinnati
Fine, is the particular hurry of getting it
into circuIanonl 1t is Of equal value with
goEd, aud should be treated III like fashion.
Wh:n specie payments are resumed it can be
paid oUC in coin or certificates for all Govern
ment dues and will circulate well enough
then. Meanwhile stop flooding the country
With trade dollars, and prepare for making
subsidiary coin redeemable SO that tho surplus
cal 10 worked off the market. In other
words, let the Treasury Department exercise
half tho ingenuity to make bi-rnetalism
success that it is now exercising to make it a
failure, and there will be- no more trouble
with it. in this country

An Ice CAVE. The Eureka Lealer OF July
2G describes curious natural formation as
follows:
There is a small cave situated IN the range
Of mountains about seven miles west of the
Mountain Boy mine, running into the hillside
from one of the canyons, that promises some
novelty from the fact that it is natural ice
house. 1t only extends some 50 feet, and is
not very rooIny, but at all times of the year
it is partially filled with ice, which forms
both winter and summer At different places
on the mountain above cold air issues from
crevises and the stones are az cold as in mid
winter, The ice in the cave does not form to
any great thickness, and the freezing and
thawing processes seem to keep the quantity
at an even standard. 1t is a pity that it is not
nearer Eureka. In the heated term now pre-
vaiIimg it would be a most popular retreat and
a profitable one. An enterprising person could
make fortune by taking it up and moving it
to st. Louis. The denizens of that sun atflic-
ted city would beStow liberal patronage On

adopted 10 my family, and incomparably better
than any mode have ever tasted. BY this
mode they orc very desirable for supper or for

sons, take six eggs, boil four of them hard I,
dissolve the yolk with vinegar sufficient, and
about three teaspoons of mustard, and mash as
smooth as possible: then add tho two remain
log cges, raw yolk and white, stir well; then
add oil to make altogether ssuoo sufficient to
cover the tomatoes WE'LL and pleaty of salt and
cayenne pepper, and beat thoroughly until it
frosts. Skin and cut the tomatoes full
fourth Of an inch thick, and pour the sauce
over, and you have dish it for a President.
Though little troublesome to prepare. yet if
once eaten by people who are blossad with pal.
ates to enjoy good things. they will be pronounc-
ed 10 be far superior to any other mode of
preparation. We use them constantly in this
way for these meals. For dinner they are best
slowed. but they should always DO strained be-
