TESTING Tea.

II is we'll known that the quality OF tea
il Judged by experts who taste IL aittr
infusion. In an Office intended Tor the
purpose there nre large tables with
round revolving tops A circle OF tea.
CUBS il placed along the edge OF these.
The tca.taster sits down before the dlS-
play of crockery and tastes one cup after
another, moving the tabletop around.
In the center of the table Is par OF
scales with silver hali-dme IN one OF
the balances. One or two large kettles
are kept constantly with boiling water
in them. When n sample Of tea is to be
tasted, as much is weighed out MS Will
balance the half-dimc. This liz put into
II tca-cup and the boiling water poured
on. The tcn-tastcr then stlrs up the
leaves, lifts them ON his spoon, and IN
hnlrs the aroma At the same time he
generally takes sip of the Infusion,
holds it in his mouth for short time,
and then spits it out. Enormous brass
cusyNdors, holding two or three @nl-
Ions. receive the tca thus tasted and the
contents of the cups that have been eX-
nmincL One some occasions, when II
large amount of tea Of certain KIND is
to he balght, many samples OF tins are
brought in from different houses. The
buyers an.l sellers sit around the reyolV-
ING table with the samples made into IN
fusions III the cups before them. These
are tasted nil around, the "body,
"hneness," "toastiness,' etc, are
lcarncdly discussed, and the poorer
specimens discarded. Then those that
are left are tasted again aud the number
further reduced. Soft goes on until the
article which unites the desired price
and quality IL obtained. So delicate IL
the taste of an experienced tea-tastcr
| that he will detect not only the quality
of the ten rs regards age, strength, fiat
yor. finrness, etc, but he can tell III
which of the numerous districts IN ChIn@
the tea was grown. The facts rcgnr, ing
| the different samples are sometimes nut
| ON the bottom Of the cups, where they
cannot be seen. The cups are then
mixed up, and the infusions tasted
again, and sorted out simply by their
havors. That the occupation is an ex-
cecdingly unhealthy one need hardly be
stated, as the entire system IL llipr'S-
mated with tea.

1t is said that the sentiment OF Re
publican leaders in the Westera part OF
the State is divided ON the oaestion of
appointing Or eiecting delegates to the
Chicago Convention. The Grant men
favor the appointment OF delegates by
the State Central Committee, while the
Blaine men, who believe they are in a
majority in the State, are in favor Of
e,ecting the delegates The Reno Jour
Eal believes that Blaine is the choice Of
large majority of the Republicans OF
Nevada, but adds that j. W. Mackey
is for Grant, and he wants to be dele
gate to the National Convention The
Journal says Mackey has rendered i'm
portant service to the party in Nevada,
using his influence and money to pro-
mote this cause, AID now the question
is "What are the Republicans going to
do about it.
1t is not right that a pronounced
Grant man should be sent to represent
Nevada in the Chicago Convention, if
majority Of the Republicans Of the State
are in favor OF Blaine. yet the party to
which Mr.. Mackey has rendered such
important services in Influence and
money" cannot well afford to refuse to
elect him delegate to q nominating
convention. This difficulty will prob
ably be surmountea by sending an un-
pledged delegation, of which pro-
nounced Grant man viii be member,

From numerous experiments made in
the great hospital at Posen, Prussia, it
appears that ice is most effectual rem
edy against smallpox. One of the
patients, in fit Of delirinrn, escaped to
the garden, where the snow lay two
feet deep. There he remained the
whole night, with no covering but his
sairt. On the following morning the
fever had subsidized and the pustulcs

attracted the physicians attention, and,
after consultation, they determined to
keep the temperature OF the smallpox
