The New York Grocer thus discourses
on the antiquity Of cheese;
Cheese and Curding Of the milk are
mentioned in the Book of Job. David
was sent by his father, Jessie, to carry
I ten cheeses to the camp, and to look
how his brothers fared Cheese Of
kline" formed part of the supplies Of Da-
vid's army at Mahanaim, during the re-
belliOn Of AbsalOm. Homer says that
cheese formed q part Of the ample store
found by Ulysses in the cave of CyclOps.
PoIyhemus, Euripides, TheOCritus, and
other early poets, mention cheese. Lu-
dOlphus saws that. excellent cheese and
butter were made by the ancient EthlO-
plans, and StrabO states that some Of the
ancient Britons were so ignorant that,
though they had an abundance Of milk,
they did not understand the art Of max
ing cheese. There is no evidence that
anv of these ancient nations had d1sCOv-
cred the use of rennet in making cheese.
They appear merely to have allowed the
milk to sour, and subsequently to have
formed the cheese from the casein Of
the milk, after eXpelling serum OrWhey.
As David, when young, was able to run
to the camp with ten Cheeses and an
ephah Of parChed corn, the cheeses
must have been small

THE GARFIELD CLUB.
JUDGE THONPsON's SPEECH FRI
DAY EVENING.

Judge Jas. I'll. Thompson addressed the
Garfield Club, at les regular meeting at the
Court House last Friday evening. The at
tendance was not as large as it should have
been, owing 10 the fact that It was not gen
orally known that She Judge was to speak.
Those Who stayed at home missed an eX-
celleut speech, however, which it would
have done anyone good to hear. He re-
piled 20 Diokeys speech Of the night pre-
viOus, to some extent, proving beyond con-
tradiotiOn that many Of hiE statements
we're false. II Judge Thompson will con-
sent to address the Club again, We are sat
isfed be will draw a crowded house.

The Republicans hung out the picture
of g fine American eagle in front Of their
headquarters last week, mounted on The
Stars and Stripes, and holding a Demo
cratic rooster in his mouth, which is in
the last agonies of death. Il is q good

front of the Democratic headquarters,
and has caused considerable amusement.
It was painted By Mr.. Carey Spargur, and
does credit TO his skill in that line.

Many people look upon the compass
as an intrOduction Of the fifteenth Cen-
turv. but It seems TO have been well
known in a primitive form in the twelfth
and thirteenth centuries In one OF Jh55
popular songs written in the time OF
King John, it is said that the sailors who
90 on long voyages to Eriesland or to the
cast know their wav by observing the
Tramontane or Polar star; but, when
the sky is covered with clouds, and they
could no longer see the stars Of heaven,
they had q cOutrivauce, which was thls.
They took a needle Of iron and put It
through a piece of cork, so that one end
remained out, which they rubbed with
a loadstone, and then they placed 1t IN
vessel full Of water, and, whichever way
the end of the needle pointed, there,
without any doubt, was the Polar star.
This formed a primitive but fairly per.

With calm blue eyes and auburn hair,
The sunshine played upon her face,

Her kindly words oft banished grief;
Her life, her days, to one would seem

Why aching hearts, 50 f1ll Of pain,

While kindred souls their vigHs keep.

A precious one, just gone before.

And led her to the heavenly band

Beyond the distant, purple night,
