Death in Cooking Utensils.

The Boston Journal Of Chenbt,y warns
housekeepers against tin vessels where
an alloy OF lead and tin has been used
by scampish makers to coat the sheet
iron plate. The alloy is readily acted
upon by acids, and salts of lead are thus
introduced into food. In Michigan sew
eral cases of paralysis ogitaas have been
traced to this sort of poisoning, and it
has been discovered that children have
died of meningitis, fits and paralytic
affections caused by drinking milk kept
in such vessels. Analysis CT a large
number of specimens of tin plate used
in culinary articles showed the presence
of an alloy with lead in almost every
instance, and often in large quantities,
and it is asserted that large proper
ton of the timed wares in the market
are unfit for use on this account.

Young Trees.
Kansas Farmer,

1t is not, perhaps, known by a great
many how easily young tree is de.
stroyed by cattle rubbing against it, or
by being twisted about by stock. |
recolect particularly of having lost
three fine apple trees six years old, by
COWS rubbing against them only one
time, and then only long enough for the
writer of this to walk forty yards to
drive them away. These trees did not
appear damaged much at the time, but
upon examination the bark was found
to be loosened on Il great portion OF one
side of each tree and eventually, the
next spring, all died.
| have seen cattle walking through a
grove of soft maple of one years growth
and full of frost, which would break oil
as quick as SO many lclcles. | cite
these instances to show what an I'M
mense amount of damage can be
done by cattle in very short time.
The only safe rule is not to allow stock
of any kind in It young grove or timber
belt.

THE emigration to Liberia by negroes
from the southern states has ended, as was
inevitable that it should,--in hunger, dis
ease, and death for the misguided enthusi-
asts who pictured The African republic as
the lattcr-day land Of promise. 1t was a
cruel and a swindling scheme by which the
Libcrian fever was worked up among the
Carolina negroes, in some cases by their
own preachers, in the pay OF dozen
hcartless wrctches who saw fortune in the
transportation of such of the negroes as
had means to make their way to the land
flowing with milk and honey. No warning

The following memorial and accompanying
lature yesterday morning:
and House Of Representatives Of the State of
Minnesota.
The memorial Of the chamber of commerce
OF the city of st. Paul respectfully represents
That action in the settlement of the State rail
road bonds upon fair and equitable basis, is
indispensable to a restoration of the credit of
Minnesota inasmuch as the charge Of repudia-
ton Is daily made against her at home and
abroad. Your memorialists, leaving out entire
~ the question of morals, and viewing the sub
ject from a financial and business standpoint
are firmly convinced that the prosperity of the
State will be greatly promoted by speedy adj
Justment of all differences connected with the
outstanding obligations referred to. As their
only hope that this consummation can be
reached within q reasonable time, your memo
riallsts beg leave to submit for your consider
alton the draft of a bill providing for the pay
ment of the bonds with the 100000 acres of
internal improvement lands almost identical
with that passed in 1870, which received
the approval at the subsequent election of the
voters of the State, and only failed in conse-
quence of a provision that 1900 of the 2,275
noHus snoulu De ueposleeo py DAY speclhed,
thus placing it in thepower of a comparatively
small number of bondholders to defeat the set
Element by withholding from the surrender
contemplated by the law. Your memorialists
believe that the people OF the State are yet
prepared forl settlement on like terms, and
that the bondholders, who have been so long
kept in suspense, will accept them as their only
hope of receiving anything, and your memorial
lists would deem any adjustment Of the matter
at issue as far preferable to further inaction
and delay. Your memorialists respectfully
pray for the passage Of the bill presented here
with, and It's submission to the popular vote,
and as IN duty bouna will ever pray, etc.
