LOSS OR GAIN

An old gentleman, leaning forward
with his hands clasped over a gold
headed cane, was seated in a summer
house situated upon the grounds of a
hotel at a fashionable watering-place.
He was in a corner hidden by dropping
vines, and his face expressed deep and
apparently painful thought. The re-
frain of his sad musing was "Only one
person in the whole world to love me,
and l shall lose even that love now!"
On the other side of the summer
house, divided from the side the old
gentleman occupied by a rustic parti-
ton, two ladies, young and fair, rustled
in, and taking out some fancy work set
tied down for a chat.
One was tall and dressed in a pretty
costume that was at one youthful and
matronly; the other was petite, blonde,

BEEF TEA.-Chop l pound Of lean

boil; boil from Is to so minutes, as time
will permit, and then strain it. Season
it with a little salt and pepper, IL the
doctor allows it, and use it. The longer
the meat stays in cold water, the more
of its nutriment will be extracted. Chop
l pound of lean beef fine, put it in a
a covered earthen jar without water,
and set it in a a moderate oven for four
hours then STRAIN off the liquid, season
it slightly. and serve. This preparation
contains every nutritious element of the
beef.
CAssELL PUDDING WITH HARD
SAUCE.-Mix 4 ounces each Of butter
and sugar to a cream and crate the rind
Of a lemon into them. Beat the whites
of 2 eggs to a stiff froth, and the yelks
to a cream. Add the yelks to the butter
and sugar, and stir in 4 ounces OF flour,
then add the whites in lightly put the
pudding into 6 buttered cups or tins,
making them two-thirds full, and bake
in n moderate oven about so minutes,
testing at the end Of 90 minutes with a
broom-splint. When they are done,
turn out of cups, and serve with a sauce
made Of 2 unc Of butter, 1 ounces Of
sugar, and the juice Of half a lemon.
ToAsr.-The reason why we want
stale bread to make good toast is be-
cause we want it dry. After the moist
ure has e~vaporated from bread it is less
tough and solid, and consequently more
easily digested, and the heat of the fire
more readily changes the bread into
pure wheat farina, which is not as like
ly % sour in the stomach as fresh, moist
bread. Cut two even slices Of stale
bread about l an inch thick, taking care
to have them smooth and Of even size
Put the bread on a toasting-furk and
expose it to the heat of a moderate fire,
holding it so that it will turn golden
brown all over, and being careful not TO
burn it; turn the slice, and toast the
other side in the same way. This makes
dry toast, which should be eaten a.
once. Buttered toastis prepared in the
same way spread very thinly and
evenly with a little nice butter, and set
it in the oven for 5 minutes to make it
crisp, and to mingle the butter thor
oughly with il, so that it viii digest
equally, and then serve hot.

THE NATIONAL TURNPIKE
Question for Lawyers.

Mr.. Editor Section 3 of the Act
transferring the National Turnpike
to the custody Of Allegany and Gar
rett counties, upon the subject of toll
gates, reads as follows:
That said county commissioners are here
by authorized to establish and maintain
such number of toll-gates upon said road
as they deem necessary or expedient, etc
Suppose the commissioners "deem
1t necessary or expedient" to have no
gates at all, would such conclusion be
a proper constr uction of the law?
This question is propounded to the
lawyer-rsaders of your paper with the
hope that, as this ie matter Of public
interest, they will read the Act fully,
and answer explicitly, cheerfully and
gratuitously.
And, Mr.. Editor, we bespeak space
in your columns for their replies.
CALMus.
Frostburg mining journal. [volume] (Frostburg, Md.) 1871-1913, 1879-03-08
Canno. be Made a Free Road.

Mr.. Ea'to, Referring to the
question asked by "Calmus,' q full
reading of the Act leads me to con-
clude that the commissioners have no
power to make the National road free
of toll. The section subsequent to
the one quoted provides for the arpli-
cation of the money collected from
tolls, and should such sum be made
quate to the proper repair Of said
read" the commissioners are empower
ed to levy such additional sum as may
be deemed necessary, etc.
Aside from the legal question in.
volved I do not think it would be
good policy for the commissioners to
make it free road. The people Of
Allegany should make it matter OF
great pride to keep this thoroughfare
in creditable condition, and derive
therefrom all the aid practicable for
such purpose growing out of the use
by those most closely interested.
Frostburg mining journal. [volume] (Frostburg, Md.) 1871-1913, 1879-03-08
May be Made a Free Road.

Mr.. Editor 1t must be admitted
that some dou BIT exists as to the prop
er construction of the Act of 1878,
Chapter l5S, ira nsferring the Nation
al road to the counties By the first
and second sections of the Act the
road is transferred to and placed
under the custody, care and control of
the commissioners, and they are re-
quired to assume custody and control
thereof. By section three they are
authorized to establish and maintain
such number of toll gates as they may
deem necessary or expedient; to col
lect tolls, appoint toll gatherers and
supervisors, etc. Ely section four
they are req Tired 10 apply all such
tolls to Tic repair Of the road, end Ly
section five they are authorized to
levy such additional sum as may be
deemed necessary.
Like all acts drawn with a view to
cover various and possible contingent
cies, this one contains language rem
derlng its meaning little obscure.
Our opinion however is that sections
one and two transfer to the counties
an entire and unqualified control of
the road with the right to remove all
toll gates. Sections three, four and
five are applicable only in the event
that the commissioners decide to make
it toll road, IN which event these
sections regulate tho manner of COL
lecting and applying tolls and form
system for so doing. The language
Of the third section would hardly be
construed by the courts as mandatory.
Iii true that where duty is imposed
upon a public body words of power
or authority are held equivalent to
words of command. But in this case
the authority is rot to do an act
necessarily beneficial to the public,
hence authorized should be con-
strued as permissive and not as i'm
perative. Mors especially could this
view be entertained in contemplation
of the fact that it is the policy of
our State to have free roads, and con-
trary to the genius Of our institutions
to burden the travelling public with
toll charges.

Especial correspondence of the JOURNAL.
BALTIMORE, Feb. 5, 1879.
One of the most rio iculous perform
ances ever witnessed here for one that
was advertised to be serious and IN
COOL faith, was that given by Mr.
and Mrs. Mansfield last Monday
evening, They represented them
selves to be great mediums and capa-
bic of calling up the spirits of any de-
parted friends. The hall was crowd
ed at the time appointed with skep-
tics and believers, the former in the
majority. These were SO clamorous
and made such sport of the perform
ancs that it led Mr.. Mansfield to re-
mark that it was to the interest of
the audience to remain silent in order
to witness the wonderful things going
on around them, for, as far as they
(the mediums) were concerned they
could leave the building Immediately
as they had their interest in their
pockets. The show was carried on
amid shouts of derision and express
sions of humor from the audience,
which was DESTROYS of seeing some
thing new and not quite so easv OF
discovery. At last it was terminal
ed by an exposure by newspaper re-
porter who had been invited into
the cabinet, and on his release reveal
ed "the secrets of his prison house.
Never has there been more disap-
pointed and disguised set of people
than those who attended this seance.
The Art Loan Exhibition, which
has proved SO successful in most OF
our large cities, is being tried here.
1t opened on Tuesday evening and
such beautiful and rare collection
of paintings, statuary, antique vases,
etc, etc., has never been seen in this
place. All are loaned by citizens
an admission fee is charged and
three-fourths of the proceeds of the
exhibition will be applied to the pur-
chase of paintings for a permanent
collection TO be placed in the Peabody
Institute, where the present exhibit
bition is being held. In the selec-
ton OF these pieces of art preference
will be given to works by American
artists. The remaining fourth of the
proceeds viii lie appropriated to plac-
ing upon u more permanent founda.
ton the Decorative Art Society, &"
which has latel y been organized in
this city as school for instruction
in the branch of art indicated by its
name. The Trustees of the Peabody
Institute have appropriated to art
uses suite OF rooms admirably adapt
ed to the purpose, which will not on
ly be frequently in the future filled
by exhibitions like that which is now
opened, but also become the perma-
nent depository Of works of art, to be
purchased from the proceeds of the
exhibitions or contributed by the lib
erality Of our citizens. The rooms
will also contain a collection of casts
from the most celebrated works of
Grecian Art, afording the most val
liable and important models for in
struction known to the art student.
During the present exhibition rare
flowers are used to brighten the effect
of the scenes and one apartment is
devoted exclusively to them where
they may be purchased.
