A PLEASANT note of the late Wis.,
its of Congressman to California is
the frank and hearty way in which
they proclaim themselves in favor
of fostering that most essential in
terest of California, our wine and
brandy manufacture. The Messrs.
Mckenzie and Stevenson, Demo-
cratic Congressman from Kentucky
and and Illinois respectively,
avowed themselves to US, while in
Los Angeles, in the most demon
strative way, as devoted to o pres
ervation of the present status with
regard to the tariffon French wines
and brandies. A preservation of the
present tariff is the great desider-
alum OF our vignerons. The tricks
of the foreign wine trade are with
out number. First they had the
tariff advanced to high figure.
When it was universally under
stood that such an advance would
be made, our wine importers
strained every nerve to get at least
two years. cargo of cheap French
wines into this country. tits owing
to this circumstance that the Cali
fornia wine interest dropped for full
vi two years anterior to the present
season. The importers of foreign
wines, having accomplished their
unpatriotic purpose, now face
about and ask Congress to lower
the tariff they themselves raised.
No Harlequin of the stage ever
changed his position with more
suddenness than do these worthless.
They first bilked the native wine
producer by raising the tariff; they
now seek to blk him by lowering
it. We recognize, with thanks, the
attitude that the San Francisco
Alta, and its energetic attache, Mr..
G. w. Wetmore, have taken in
this matter. That journal, which
has always done everything in its
power to further the distinctive in
terests of California, has done
much that merits the gratitude o
our vignerons.

antee of purity of administration
from Gov. Tilden. He was sue
ceeded in his two terms by his
staunch personal and political
friend, Lucius Robinson.
The results accomplished by
these two honest men are simply
incredible. The State debt OF New
York has fallen from $50, 1000, 900 I'M
der Gov. Dix to SS,O00,000 under
Gov. Robinson. The state tax has
fallen from Sl6,O00,0O0 to $1,000, OOC
annually. The canal expenditures
fell from SIS, $4,000 to S9OS,000. The
whole of the expense of running
the canals was paid, under both Of
these Democratic administrations,
from it's tolls, and, at the same
time, the tolls were lower and the
service conspicuously better. Gov.
Robinson vetoed, during his term,
81, 500, 900 of projected State Prison
expenditures, and yet the State
Prisons were never run more eff
GENTLY than under his adminlstra'
ton. OF bic 15Svetoes not one was
nassed over his head, although
more than two-thirds OF eacn
House were composed Of Republi'
cans and Tammapyites. He erect
ed himself like stone wall,
against the prodigal OUTLAWS upon
the new State Capitol at Albany,
projected to cost S4,000,000, but
upon which already more than
$40, 900, 900 have been spent.
We present this series of facts
as evidence that the Democratic
party, with all the demagogic and
partizan rant raised against it, still
appears in its old and traditional
role of champions of honest and
economical administration and of
the accountability of public SER
wants to the people. In our own
State the parallel holds good. The
retiring Democratic administra-
ito of California has been a cred
liable one, and its record of re-
tren chment Of public expenditures
admits of mathematics demonstra-
ton. Without much pretense, the
party has valid claims upon the
good will of the voters.
The November election in New
York will show whether the people
really love retrenchment and re-
form, or whether they are, at heart,
more debauched than the leaders
they have followed so long.

A Life saved by story-Tellinx,

There is tale told by London CORES
pondent of Progress, of q sea captain who,
in distant corner of the southern seas,
visited an undiscovered OF unexplored
group of beautiful islands. After landing
and trading with the gentle natives, he
was astonished by the visit of white man,
evidently person of means and cOnse-
|quence, who, after making himself very
agreeable, implored the captain to give
him story book, if he had such a thing
in his possession. The captain had, and,
deeply touched by the pigs and cOcoanuts
which the white exile had given, bestow-
ed on him a copy of the arabian. Nights

Fish as Brain Food.

Since during the acts of sensation and
intellection phosphorus is consumed in
the brain and neverOus system, there
arises necessity to restore the portions so
consumed, or, as the popular expression is,
to use brain food. Now, as every one
knows, it is the property of phosphorus to
shine in the dark and as fish in a certain
stage of putrefactive decay often emit
light, or become phosphorescent, it has
been thought this is due to the abundance
of phosphorus their flesh contains, and
hence that they are eminently suitable for
the nourishment of the nervous system,
and are an invaluable brain food. Under
that idea many persons resort to
a dict of fish and persuade themselves that
they derive advantage from it an in
creased vividncss of thought signal i'm
provcment in the reasoning powers. But
the flesh of fish contains no excess of
phosphorus, nor does its shining depend ON
that element. Decaying willow wood
shines even more brilliantly than decaying
fish; it may sometimes be discerned afar
off at night. The shining in the two cases
is due to the same cause.-The oxidation of
carbon, not of phosphorus, in organic sub
stances containing perhaps, not a percepti-
BILE trace of the latter. element. Yet surely
no one found himself rising to a poetical
fervor by tasting decaying willow wood,
though it ought, on these principles, to be
better brain food than a much larger
quantity of fish, Harper's Magazine.
