They Want Their Theodore.
The gentleman who originated the report
that Mr.. Theodore Thomas will conduct
the rehearsals and concerts of the Brooklyn
Philharmonic Society, this winter, said to a
reporter yesterday that he must have been
misunderstood, as he did not mean to con-
vey heimpression that Mr.. Thomas will
come on to this city from Cincinnati to con-
duct the concerts, as he knew that would
be altogether impracticable. There were
several gentlemen in both New York and
Brooklyn who thought it was shame to al
low Mr.. Thomas to be taken away from us
through lack of support by the public.
These gentlemen, aided by the New York
and Brooklyn Philharmonic Societies, are
endeavoring to raise a fund which would
be sufficient to induce Mr.. Thomas to re-
main in this city, provided the citizens of
Cincinnati would release him from his en-
gagement with them. If they are success
full they will be amply rewarded for their
trouble Whether these negotiations will
be successful or not will soon be known.

Wedding Cake.

Three-fourths pound butter; one pound
Drown sugar; eight eggs; one pound flour;
tWo pounds currants; three pounds rails
ms; one pound citron; one teaspoonful
each Of ground cinnamon, cloves, and
nutmeg; half teacupful Of molasscs; half
teacuptul of brandy; one tablespoonful OF
thick sour milk; one tablespoon even full
Of soda dissolved in the milk.
To make: Soften tn butter, and stir
to cream; add the sugar, and beat till
light; then the eggs without beating;
next the molasses, brandy and spices !;
then the fruit, which must first be rub
bed with -four, to prevent settling: tea
cupful of flour extra, or more, will be
needed for the purpose. Work IN the
pound Of flour, and, st, the soda and
milk. Mix we'll, but quickly, after the
soda is added, and place Immediately in
the oven. Bake in a tin milk-pan, hold
ing six or eight quarts. The sides of the
pan should be huttered, and the bottom
OF 1t covered with thick white paper, well
buttered. 1t is best TO put a tin cake
tube in the center Of the pan. Any tin
ner can make one; it is only scroll of
tin, scanned ct the sides with solder, and
about SIX or seven inches long, and two
inches in diameter at one end, and one
inch at the other. BY making an OBJ
liQue cutting at the small end, the tube
will answer to core apples with. II q
/ tube cannot be obtained, il will be best
to bake in two basins holding three or
+ four quarts each. Have very little fire
when the cake is put in the oven. 1t will
require an hour for it to melt and rise.
/ It then begins to bake, which will take
about two hours more. The heat may be
+ increased after the first hour, but must
not be quick, at any time. If the cake
+ becomes brown before it is done, cover
with paper, or put a dripping-pan on up
/ per crate, directly over the cake. 1t Is
well for the housekeeper to make all
necessary preparations for fruit-cake the
dav before it is TO be made, as it saves
time and fatigue at the time of baking.
Even week before wanted, the raisins
/ ean be seeded, the ciuon finely sliced,
md the currants washed and dried. In
that case, turn the brandy-one-half cup
over the fruit and cover closely.

Domestic EmigTaiion.

From an official statement of the sales
Of public lands, during the past year, in
Minnesota, Dakota, Nebraska and Kan
sas, we learn, says an Eastern paper, that
the amounts Of money received have been
so large as to indicate movement of
population on very large scale. The re-
gions thus settled are in the range Of
wheat, corn and stock farming, and show
that the domestic emigration is rolling
westward in a dense volume, carrying for
ward the organized forms of American
civilization as seen in the fourishing set
Elements Of Iowa, Kansas and Minnesota,
Emigrants do not now sprawl over the
whole vast wilderness Of tie New West, as
had been the case ten years ago. The
terror caused by the Tavages Of the Indian
wars must be held responsible Tor COM
pachng the settlers thus in organized
masses. The products Of agriculture in
these border regions are now available fog
markets to an extent that was formerly
impossible, as ali the new railroads are
equipped in good running order and form
parts Of great systems Of transit and trade.
The chances favor an immense progress in
Minnesota, Nebraska and Kansas. 1t
seems TO be the prevalent belief now that
the hopes Of the Nation must rest chiefly
on the progress of its agriculture. The
western border advances at the rate Of
about fifty miles q year.

Poultry Flesh.

The value 0fpoultry flesh, comparative
ly, that is to say when spoken OF simply
as table food, is not so various in ditfereE
breeds of fowls as some Of the books and
certain partial writers on the subject aim
to make it out.
We not infrequently see it gravely stat
ed that the meat Of the Chinese or Asialc
breeds is ''sHingy and tough" or that
smaller variety of fowl isvery tender and
Juicy" compared with that of some other
kind Of poultry. This Is all iallaclouS,
and a groundess theory. We have eaten
of the flesh of every description of dOmes-
tic fowl, from the Bantam to the Brahma
old and young good and inferior. And
we know that it is altogether more in the
feeding of poultry, to render their meat
toothsome when slaughtered, than it is III
the sort or size Of the fowl thus eaten.
An immature chicken of the slowly ma
turing sort is, of course, lacking in rotun-
dity and plumpness, if unseasonably kill
ed for the table. But any variety otfowl,
either young or old, that is badly or neg
Hgently fed and cared for. is naturally
poor in flesh, "stringy,' and unpalatable.
Wei fed fowls of any breed, and such as
have all they need for their comfort and
thrift, from cHckeuhood upward, make
excellent poultry for market, or for the
private table And there is no perceptible
difference in the taste OF the flesh OF any
sort of domestic bird, so far as We could
ever distingUish.-Pou!try World.

/ Loss TG California.

Chinese immigration is said to have
ceased in consequence Of the prosecutions
to which the race has been subjected III
California, under the influence OF rutdans,
demago2ues and labor organizations. Ag-
ricuIture in that rich and tiourishlng
State thus loses n resource for cheap labor
which it will be difficult to replace. Few
races are more usefu. i'll all departments
of labor than the Chinese, and the cheap
ness OF their work is less an inducement
than their industry, patience and docIle
obedience To orders. These AslauCs could
be utilized in California not only III all
the established agricultural arts OF grain,
fruit, and stock farming, but in the cul-
ture OF coffee, silk. tea, rattan, and spices,
drugs and dyes. They are so used in the
East-India islands in great numbers, and
also in the West Indies on the coffee and
sugar plantations. The Chinese have been
widely and steadily diffused all over the
settled portions of the United States, and
California is the only region where they
have been prosecuted, says the German
town Telegraph. The reason, probably,
of this exception is the amazing persever-
ance and success Of this race, which seem
ell to render it certain that, if the influx
was unchecked the race would eventually
fill all the lower branches Of labor in the
State. Labor-saying machinery affords
the only means OF relief for the farmers OF
California, for 10 other race Of toilers Is
likely TO fill the vacuum created by the
stoppage of the Chinese influx. The ex-
orhiiant rates of fare on the Pacific Rail-
road prevent the emigration thither OF
/ European labor from our Atlantic States.
