the minds of all dairymen is that uD-
der all circumstances, the only chance
OF profit in 4 dairy must be from Iiber-
al feeling, to produce a uniform and
abundant flow Of milk and when .
dairyman makes up his mind that he
cannot afford to feed literally. he had
better sell his cows at once. and oct
out OF q losing business. We know a
man with twenty cows, who watches
the condition of the pasture, and the
thrift and the yield OF his COWS. and
adds extra feed in barn. at once on
any appearance Of falling off in milk !.
ana the consequence is that his animal

than many Of his neighbors. while the

COOKING BY TIE SUN-A very old
friend IA "a new dress appears at Tie
Paris Exposition IN She form Of ar ap-
paratas for cooking, IN which neither
gas, coal, wood, nor other fuel. and
not even electricity, is employed for
the purpose. The only agency used
IS the heat of the sun, the solar ravs
hoiGg concentrated by means of cou-
denseTs, reflected by means of radia-
tors until sufficient heat is engendered
to boil an egg, and even to cook a
small loaf OF piece Of meat. The idea
OF thus utilizing the solar rays is as
old as tue sun ITSELF but it has not
hitherto been brought to such practi-
cal perfection as to place this source
Of heat within reach of the public at
large. Whether the story Of the de
struction by Archimedes of the Roman
fleet anchored in the harbor Of Syra-
cuse by means Of the heat reflected
from a mum Der of mirrors be true or
false, the very fact of the story having
been circulated is proof Of the exist
ence Of desire to make use Of such
method of focusing the heat of the
SUMS rays on any particular object.
only few years ago the proposal was
revived by Fronchman, who offered
his government q plan for destroying
an enemy's feet by means OF burning
mirrors at distance ola mile. These
are instances Of the destructive efforts
of mans genius Less ambitious. but
more useful, have been the attempts Of
Professor Ericsson to drive steam
engine by vapOr produced entirely by
concentration of the suns rays on q
boiler Of water and now there is ex-
posed to view at the Paris Exhibition
an apparatus for cooking by the same
agency. Experiments on small scale
have been made with perfect success.
but the duration of sunshine even in
tG belle Fiauce is so uncertain as to
prevent the hopes Of any practical
benefit being derived from the clever
invention. In England, where a week
OF unclOudcd sunshine is an unheard-
Of phenomenon, the apparatus would
be still more useless. But in tropical
England, in those portions Of the
British empire which lie under the
equator, in the West Indies, in Fiji. in
India, in parts OF Australia. and in
Africa, the intense heat Of the SUMS
perpendicular rays might be turned to
practical account IS a substitute for
the undesirable consumption of fuel.
adding It's heat and smoke to the over
laden atmosphere.

doctrine OF throwing everything into

waste Of good material which We SO
often see.
Even where there is likely to be
much objection from weed seeds in a
manure heap, provided the vegetable
refuse is likely TO be valuable, the
seeds may be destroyed by compost

the whole mass is turned over once or

1t will be observed, however, that when one
member is taken from each of these nine
counties, it leaves their Sos, 200 population to
be represented by only fourteen members, or
an average Of 10000 for each member. 1t
cannot be claimed that New York and Kings
should have a greater relative representation
than these important agricultural counties,
with Their extensive territory and varied local
interests On the contrary, it will be admit
ted on all hands that if any prefer
ence has to be shown, it should be
in favor of the rural counties. Therefore, in
order to equalize the representation on just
basis. as between the Counties of New-YOrk
and Kings and the counties from which the
representation must be taken, it will be neces-
sary to use 40, 600 as the representative ratio
instead of "a, 145.
With 10000 as the ratio, New-York is enti-
tied to twenty two and Kings to eleven mem
bers, an increase of one and two respectively,
or three in ALL
So far as relates to the Assembly apportiOn-
ment, the question is confined to the few coun-
ties above named. The other counties of the
State are, by the terms of the Constitution, en-
titled to their present Representations and,
on the present enumeration, it cannot be
changed. The only questions to be determined
are the fair and equitable rights of the coun-
ties interested. If it be admitted as we have
assumed, that the metropolitan counties should
not have a greater representation than the
rural counties, whose interests are affected,
then the conclusion we have reached above is
irresistible.
In regard to the Senatorial apportiOnment. we
do not apprehend that there Is any difference

the coroner it is added, has been denied ad-
mission to the prison..
These charges being publicly made and sus-
tanned at least by prima facie evidence, the
Legislature must look into the matter, II only
to satisfy the public mind. We shall be glad
to hear that the accusations are merely bottom
less gossip. People are suspicious OF the man
agement of prisons as they are OF that OF lu-
natic asylums, and for the same reason. Both
are places to which the community has not
free access, and the managers of which have
necessarily an almost unlimited power over
the persons of those committed to their charge.
To certain extent wardens are irresponsible
because the evidence of prisoners and lunatics
is always received with doubt, while the sub
Ordinates who share in the oversight are often
as much interested in maintaining secrecy as
their principals. Every way, it is best that
nothing should be hidden from the public.
Those who would not be unjustly suspected
should court the largest publicity and the
fullest investigation. In this case, as we have
seen, the statute regulations for preventing
abuses are excelent and if anywhere the
laws should be rigidly and punctiiously OBJ
served. it is in State Prison. We have had
trouble enough with our own institutions OF
the kind in the State of New-YOrk to know
that prison officials WILL occasionally, bear look
ing after, and that prisoners are, sometimes,
most inhumanly treated.

EVERYBODY has heard of Jersey justice, and
of the pIOmptncss with which criminals are
punished in that State. The story of the
treatment of cOnvicts in the jersey State
Prison Is so painful that we may well hope
in a communication addressed to the Grand
Jury of Mercer County, says, upon the
authority of DR.. u. w. l.. Phillips. physician
Of the prison, that gags and paddles are
freely used there, while n fearful instrument
of torture, called ga stretchcr," is also en-
ployed that DR.. Phillips admitted that on
one occasion, when he thought that prisoner
was "shamming," he poured alcohol upon the
mans back, and set fire to it and it is
said to DO customary to throw cold water
through a hose upon the naked bodies
of the inmates. Why DR.. Phillips should
talk freely about these erueties, in which
he is himself said to have participated, we
are not informed. Men are not accustomed
to boast of such performances. The Grand
Jury having paid no attention to Dr. Cor
sens communication, the matter will be
brought TO the attention of the Legislature.
In justice to the State, it should be understood
that the statute against such inhuman methods
of discipline is very explicit, all corporal pun
islment in the prison being expressly prohib-
tied. The alleged abuse, 1t appears, was
brought before the last Democratic State con-
vention, and a resolution on the subject Of
fered and sent to n committee. which made no
report upon it. OF course, there are rumOrs,
which may or may not be well founded, of
the death of convicts unaccounted for; and

IEGISL1TIVE APPORTIONNEk

BY the neglect of its.predecessors for two
years past, the present Legislature finds de-
volved upon it the duty of Reproducing the
Senate and Assembly districts, pursuant to
the requirements of the State Constitution.
The census of 1875 fixes the total repre-
sentative population of the State at 4,37O,-
$40, which divided by 128, the whole num-
Der of Assembly districts, gives 31,l15 as the
representative ratio for members of Assem-

would be entitled to representation as fol-
lows:

This would give an increase of five members

rural counties. The counties having the least
claim to their present representation, from
which the nine members could be taken, are

of opinion as to the propriety of giving New
York and Kings each one additional Senator.
Although New-YOrk has an excess OF about
10000 above the representative ratio for SIX
Senators, it is proper that this excess should
be divided among the six districts, thus max
ing small fraction for each.
