have made and eaten omelet when they
have not. Anything that is made OF
eggs and milk, and solidified over the
fire, is called an omelet. Some people
put flour in, which takes fifteen to
twenty minutes to cook, while an ONE
let is cooked in one minute. The true
omelet is light, fiaky and delicious,
and an ornament to any table. In the
first place be sure your eggs are fresh,
or you will fail; break them into an
earthen dish, and beat Just enough 10

Peabody Educational Fnnd.

New YORK, Oct. 2-The annual meeting of
tho Peabody educational fund took place to-
day and was attended by the President and
Secretary of State Evarts Robert E. Winthrop,
president of the board, made short address
congratulating the members upon the presence
of President Hayes who had broken away from
his official duties to show his interest in educa-
tional matters. Notwithstanding the serious
shrinkage of their income, he said the cause
of free public schools at the South had made
most encouraging progress the past year, and
while they could do nothing board to aid
or relieve the hufferings of their Southern
brethren while the plague is raging. they could
do and had done and were doing not little to
promote that intellectual and moral i'm
provement which must sustain them in
every trial and be the basis of their future
prosperity and welfare. The year just closed
has been one of unusual pecuniary embarrass-
ment to all the schools of the South. and while
every department of education has been affect
ed, that relating to the employment of teach
ers and public officers has suffered most.
Cheapening the labors of men whom the vi
tality of the system depends is a more danger
Gus experiment than is generally supposed.
The scholarships established last year have had
excellent effect. In the Peabody Normal SEM
mary of Louisiana one-fourth of all the female
teachers of New Orleans, during many years,
have been educated. The following figures
show the distribution of the income fund dur
ing the year: Virginia, $15,350; North Caro-
lima, $4,000; South Carolina, So 900; Georgia,
Sc, 900; Florida $50. 700; Alabama, So 900; Texas,
So, $50; Arkansas, 6,O00 Tennessee, $14, 900;
West Virginia, 1850.

PORTER'S BULL RUN.

The Judge Advocate Opens the Case for the
Government, Severely Criticizes Porter,
and Promises to Destroy His Evidence.
New YORK, Oct. "A session of the court
in the case of Fitz John Porter was held to-day
at Governors Island. The judge advocate
opened the governments side of the case with
a long and exhaustive address. He reviewed
the original trial, and was very severe on Gen.
Porter, saying that his defense had always
been a series of afterthought, and that he had
adopted the theory to which he had attempted
to fit the facts. He maintained Porter's new
evidence had really not thrown any
light on the question, and that there
were several discrepancies and contradictions
in his testimony. He dwelt at some length on
the subject of McDowell's connection with the
events in question, and claimed Porter alone
was responsible for the action Of the Fifth
corps, and that he would so prove by his wit
nesses and by the documentary evidence he
would submit. He also claimed that the wit
nesses he would bring forward would give a
different view of Porter's conduct than has thus
far been received through the evidence of ac-
cused, and that his conviction by the court
martial was proper and the sentence merciful.
The address occupied the greater part Of the
