EDITOR OF THE HERALD.
Dear Sir:

We I'M
derstand your beaming coantenance
Illuminated the streets ofcur busy little
town last week. | also learned You
had been invited to dine with me, had |
known of your visit should certainly
haye insisted on your coming, for more
reasons than one, but one in particular
was, had just made large cake, from
a receipt in your paper, and such cake.
1t was so described by you that l took
it to be something above the average
cake, something we could enjoy and
send around to our nei.hbers, and If
possible you should have tried it. l
would have had it boiled parbolled'
stewed, fried, scslleped or scrambled.
and if afterwards you had returned to
the town Of your nativity alive and well
we would have said Editors are certain
Iva set Of cast iron men whs come from
the race Of Anak, by their recipes they
are trying to destroy the people OF
weaker constitutions that they may
have this fair valley all to themselves,
but we are Of fsrgiying disposition 50
the next time you pass through stop
and see US, some OF the cake may be
left and like winter apples 1t may i'm
prove toscards spring. 1t Is the best
cake for keeper we have ever seen.
Don't fail 10 call,
Shenandoah herald. [volume] (Woodstock, Va.) 1865-1974, 1878-11-06

We would have been happy TO have
accepted the kind invitation, had the
time at our disposal permitted. As We
are not practical cake bakers, ne are
compelled 10 depend on the ladies for
receipts. As every lady has her own
peculiar way Of doing things, we are net
surprised that receipt for choice cake
prepared by one, Should prove in the
hands Of another nsthing better than
iron clad, or as the soldiers were wont
to term it, floating battery" Try The
next one we publish and if it does not
succeed, expose the Domestic and Ari-
cultural Editor OF the HERALD, Is Il
fraud. AS ne is not yet married he wll-
be very cautious about inrud.ns lis

what IL a Gentleman ?

1t Is not birth, position, profession,
or even education, that constitutes
the gentleman. Unless there be a
substratum of noble manhood, there
can be no real gentlemanship. One
must be thoroughly manly man Ia
order TO be thorough gentleman I;
and thoroughly manly men are not
found exclusively Ia fine houses
and fine clothes. ii Is quite posi-
bic to have "the blood Of the How
ards" In your veins, the culture OF
all the schools in your head, the
meney Of all the ROthschilds Ia youF
pockets, the actsOlade of all the kings
on your shoulder, the graces Of All
the Chesterfields in your depOrt-
ment, and fall very far short OF be-
Ing an unimpeachable gentleman.
1t Is quite possible 20 come from
plebean stock, TO be deficient Va
learning and in cash, to have neither
the hOnOrs nor tho manners Of
courts, and yet to be one Of Gods
own gentlemen. OF that man only
who has faithfully tried-however
often he may have failed--tO live
up 10 the golden rule; who has val
ued his self-reslSect more than sue
cess, his honesty more than wealth,
his pride more than vanity, his 10.
dependence more than ease, hls con-
victiOns more than ease, his cOnvic-
tIOns more than comfort, his duty
more than happiness-H that man
only can II be said :
And 40 he bore, sans blight or ban
The grand obi name of eenueman.

THE Equities"
Athens Post.


A writer in the Nashville Ban
ner wants the "sensible and patri.
Otic portion of the press to express
their views fully in regard to what
they conceive to be the equity of the
State debt question" Now, it
might be "equity" TO pay the whole
debt, dollar for dollar, according to
the face or letter of the "bond," as
in the case Of the original Shylock.
To pay half Of it, or fifty cents on
the dollar, might be semi-equlty,
which Is so per centum better than
nosequity at all. Equity, in some
respecta, seems to be a convertible
or f1exible term. Literally, we be-
lieve, 1t means justice-right, the
impartial distribution Of Justice, or
the doing that to another which tho
laws of God and man, and Of rea-
son, give him a right to claim. II
Is not equity to borrow your neigh
boris money, expend it, say in i'm
provements which add 10 your
comforts, and refuse TO pay either
principal or interest, and then
ask him "what he is going to
do about it?n Whether the Ilegis-
lature which will have TO deal with
the question will base its action on
equity or semi-equity, is problem
for future solution, We shall be
glad If the sequel shows that the
members had the moral courage TO
mount even 10 the latter, repeating
our former remark that an adjust
ment cannot be longer delayed
without the most hurtful and
ruinOns consequences.
We venture TO assume that a
majority of the bondholders will be
willing to accept "A compr0mise at
so cents; and more, that a majority
of taxpayers Of the State would
gladly agree TO compromise Of
the debt on that basis.

The telephone inverted by VIII
lard and Cheney, OF Charlotte.
Mich, Is attracting Considerable at
tention. special superiority over
all Others consists in its faithful re-
production of every articu late sound.
1t Is claimed to be the best short
line 'talking-machine" Ia the
world. IL is as loud aud distinct M
ordinary conversation, and voice,
are readily recognized. The ticking
of "A watch or the tread OF a fly over
the tympanum Of the instrument

tance. It ls neither an "electric'

All are more or less familiar with
the peculiar acoustic properties Of

licking Of watch or the artIculate
sounds OF the voice can be distinctly
heard throughout the longest stick
Of timber but these properties have
never before been utilized In the
construction Of an acoustic tele.

The trouble with acoustic teIe.
phones heretofore has been that the
reverberations drowned the artIcu-
late sounds, or rendered them too
indlstlnet for practical use. This
difficulty Is now completely over
come by the invention or discover
Of the wooden telephone, which Il

The Printer aud His Types.

Perhaps there is no department
of enterprise whose details are less
understood, by intelligent people,
than the "art preSerVative," the
achievements of the types.
Every day, their life long, peo-
pie are accustomed to read the news
paper and find fault with its state
ments; its arrangements its looks |;
to plume themselves upon the dis
covery of some roguish acrobatic
type that gets into q frOiic and
stands upon its head; or of some
waste letter or two In 1t; but of the
process by which the newspaper is
made or the myriads of mills and
the thousand of pieces necessary to
its composition, they know little
and generally think less.
They imagine they discourse of a
wonder indeed, when they speak
of the fair white carpet, woven for
thought to walk on the rags that
fiuttered on the back of the beggar
yesterday.
But there is something more
wonderful still. When we look at
the hundred and fifty-two little
boxes, somewhat shaded with the
touch of inky figures, that compose
the printers "case," nOiseless, Gx-
cept the click of the types, as one
by one they take their places in the
growing line-we think we have
found the marvel of art.
We think how many fancies in
fragments they are in boxes how
many atoms OfpOetry and elOquence
the printer can make here and there,
If he had only little chart to work
by; how many facts in small
"handful )" how much truth in
chaos.
How he picks up the scattered
elements, until he holds In his
hand stanZa of "Gray's Elegy,"
or a monody upon Grimes, "All
Buttened Up Before" Now sets
Puppy Missing" and now "Para-
disc Lost !" he arrays a bridge In
"small caps" and a sonnet In non
pareil he announces the languish-
ing olive" in one sentence-tTans-
poses the work and deplores the
days that are few and "eVil'' in the
next.
a poor jest ticks its way slowly
into the printers hand, like the
clock just running down, and its
strain of eloquencc marches into
line letter by letter. We fancy VIC
can tell the difference by the ear,
but perhaps not,
The types that told q wedding
yesterday announces burial to-
morrow-perhaps the same letters.
They are the elements to make a
world. Those typesare world with
in il as beautiful as
spring, as summer, and as imper-
as autumn flowers frost cam
not wilt-fruit that shall ripen for
all time.

as if it were more than he cared to
think about, and then he said:
sBut that man was the only single
