mittee was read, land on motion adopted:
BATON ROUGE, La. July, 1850.
ia the President and Members of the PoliceJury
Of the Parish Of East Baton Rouge:
GeMtlemeR-YOnr committee to whom
was referred for investigation the matter
pertaining to certain warrants 'ssned
against the road fund Of 1872, respect
fully submit:
That on the 9Th Of November lt7l, the
Jury of this parish, in their budget of
expenses for the year le72, set aside as
a special road fund the sum of $1,000.
And on the 18th of June 1872, at the
earnest solicitation of the Board of Trade,
represented by their President James
McVay, appropriated out Of this fund
$25OO for repairs to certain roads OF the
parish. O
Prior to this last mentioned date there
had been issued out of this fund sss2133. Il
principally to Messrs. James & Bynum
leaving q balance to the credit of roaC
account $2O66.30. The appropriation o.
S25OO as mentioned above was therefore
in excess Of the provisions made by tn
iury in the sum of S433.7O. Therefore
tho last 35 warrants and portion OF tn
36th ii. G. part of warrant 1894 and war
rants 1898 to 1899 inclusiye) are invall'
for want of sufficient appropriation t
cover the same.
litter this appropriate" waS MADE 0y IN
jury and prior to the issue Of the ~arrant
the Parish Auditor drew against th
same road fund at different times to tn
amount of $lo12 for other purposes
which added to the amount alread
warranted for, prior to the ordinance
18th of june 1872, say $S52.7o, WI
make $4745.70 or balance to the cred
of this appropriation only Of s254.3o
the time the warrants were issued to tt
amount of $500, under ordinance
above mentioned, page. lo1, minu'

Your committee have found that the
warrants, in their entirely, were TAX
,,p by the citizens of the parish, they
placing the same with cash, which "
expended for work upon our roads. "
will perceive that there was no specul
ton at the expense Of the parish, but
the contrary, the said citizens cash
these warrants at their face value, t
parish generally reaping the benef
thereof. Your committee would, the
fore. submit a favorable report upon t
verbal report Of Mr.. Gardere, ana reco
mend it's adoption, viz: That part
holding warrants of this denomniatl
be allowed to pay them into the par
tax collector for "back taxes" who
hereby instructed to receive them

A NEW REMEDY FOR CONSUMPTION.

EDS. RECORD UNION 1t is well-known
that both fame and fortune awaits the indi-
vidual who shall discover cure for consump-
ton (while it is curable), and remedy for it
when it has reached its most distressing
stages. That there can be certain cure for
it in all stages is too much to expect-no dis
ease in the world is subject to such condi-
tions. And it is the duty of every one who
has any pity for, or interest in, suffering
humanity, to reveal whatever knowledge one
may have upon the subject, which is in the
least likely to result in benefit to those suffer
ing from consumption, and its various forms
and complications. Some time ago the REC
ORD. UNION made an extract from an Eastern
paper concerning the virtues Of crude petro-
leum, as used tor this purpose. The dis
coverer and proprietor was mentioned es
DR.. NJ. M. Griffith, of Irving, Chau-
tauqua county, n. Y, who is said
to have made the subject a special
study for some years. A relative OF the
writer was suffering with severe form Of
chronic bronchitis, and, upon the strength OF
this statement, letter was addressed to DR..
Grifiths, without perhaps much hope of re-
turn, as no money accompanied the order,
merely an explanation of the circumstances
which had led to writing the letter. The re-
port proved to have been well-founded, and
the physician forwarded box Of crude petro-
leuin pills, desiring the invalid to give his
treatment fair trial. 1t was done, with
marked improvement and under most dis
oouraging circumstances. Though the writer
cannot yet record a perfect recovery, it is
owing to complications of the disease over
which the medicine had no control. The pro-
prietor stated that fully IS per cent. of all
cases treated by him with this medicine were
cured. This percentage is remarkable, and
from other circumstances which have come
under the writer's observation, is not over
stated. The merits of crude petroleum as
a cure in the durable stages of consumption
should not be overlooked. From experience
the writer can say that the medicine has q
peculiarly mild and soothing effect. The
principle of its cure seems to be the furnish
ing of more carbon than nature can dispose of,
and lack of carbon in the system is lack of
life. Therefore, supplied in quantity, it
eliminates disease by assisting nature to build
up faster than disease can destroy, 1t is not
extolled as cure-all it is not in fact adapted
for use under other conditions of the system
than those which affect the throat, lungs and
bronchial tubes. Therefore the writer sug-
gests, with faith which recent experiences
have strengthened, to those afflicted with any
form of this disease, to try it, and the sooner
the better. II.

THE NORTH WIND.

We hear some complaint that the late Sc
we're and long-continued north wind has done
come injury to growing grain in some sections
of the State. This was to have been expect
ed but we think that while this may be
true, it is also true that it has done more good
to this grain taan injury. We think it must
have pretty well settled the question of
serious injury from rust, which before
the wind was q threatening danger.
If, in addition to lessening the danger from
rust on the wheat, it will set our farmers to
thinking of the damage a similar wind might
do their grain by Smelling it out in case they al
lowed it to standin the field till dead ripe, it may
be Of great advantage in another respect.
Such a wind, occurring when the largest half
of the wheat now growing shall have become
very ripe, would leave half of it shelled on
the ground. This consideration, together
with others presented in these columns last
week, should not only set wheat-growers to
thinking but should arouse them to action to
secure their grain before the possibility of
such danger arises

Let us seek to Gull from the overlooking
gardens of past experience rich flowers of
light that shall lead Us on TO better national
lite, that shall enable US to avoid the errors
while protiting Sy the examples OF the past.
Justice to the thousands of the dead heroes
of the war that sleep peacefully IN the grave;
justice TO the living heroes that SO often and
many need our care; justice to ourselves
that we may prosper as individuals and COM
munity; justice to the future, that we may

lea that is offered, demands action-constant,
daily, continued action-on our part, that the
unparalleled expenditure of treasure aud blood
by our country in crushing wicked rebellion
may not prove to have been made in vain,
and the victory SO dearly but so completely
won be warped from the legitimate results
and prove barren OF aught save debt and
death. Nations, like individuals, must do
right; must carefully scan and learn from the
past, improve the present and guard the
future More particularly is this true of
America, for here all are sovereigns. Hence
it is that putting aside all thought of ami
mostly, all sympathetic gush, the duty is
plainly incumbent upon US all. whether as
the soldiers, the sailors or the citizens of this
great commonwealth, not to forget the
past, though we may forgive it !; to
heed its warnings and improve its gifts.
We must learn from it, we must be awake to
error and prompt to correct it, obedient to
the Federal Constitution with all its glorious
amendments, faithful to Liberty, to Union,
to Humanity, loyal tc our country and our
God, working hear and hand for true Ma
tional Progress, regarding our Federal Union
not as league of States but as a nstion of
the people. In so doing We may safely rely
for success upon the goodness of that Divine
Providence that guided the Ship of State
through tie wild breakers of civil war, and
as We rapturously clasp the gorgeous en-
sign of the Republic now full high advanced"
to our bosoms we may shout with joyous
pride and truth:

Where breathes the foe but falls before Us
With Freedoms soil beneath r feet,
And Freedoms banner streaming Ger Us.

Boiling.

What was said in q recent article in this
department about the boiling of meat does
not apply to vegetables. For them, with
but few exceptions, quick boiling is neces-
ssry. 1t MAJ be taken as rule that all
green vegetables, such as cabbage, Brus-
sells sprouts, string beans, ETC., should be
boiled quickly in abundance of water.
Cabbage, as usually served, is course,
rank vegetable; while, properly cooked,
fresh cabbage is as delicate and delicious
as caulihower. Cut it into four or six
pieces, put them into large saucepan
with plenty of boiling water, and let them
be brought quickly to the boiling point and
kept rapidly boiling with the cover off,
pushing the leaves down with n spoon
as they rise above the water. Let all
boil tAus until quite tender, but no
longer, as the vegetable then loses
color and flavor. and becomes rank,
yellow and wilted. This method of
allowing abundance of water and space,
together with quick boiling, does not ap-
ply to peas, spinach and asparagus. Peas
only require moderately quick boiling, in
sufficient water to cover them, to which
has been added a spoonful of sugar, not
enough to sweeten, but only to replace the
sweetness the water has taken away. En-
gllsh people always add small bunch of
fresh mint. Asparagus requires special
care, and after it has been scraped and
trimmed (cutting an inch or two, if it is
long, from the root end) it should be tied
in bundles and put 70 stand in deep sauce
pan, with water just reaching to the tops.
1t should then be boiled with moderate
quickness until done, l. e., for about
twenty minutes. You will then find
that you can take 1t up without
losing one of the frail heads, and the
flavor is much fuller than when these
have been soaked by lying down in the
water. Always have a slice OF toast at the
bottom of your vegetable dish for aspsra-
gus or oauliiiower it drains those delicate
vegetables better than you can otherwise
do without injurine them. Serve with
fine white sauce. Spinach is another veg
etable that is rarely well cooked it is of
such watery nature that it should be put
into the pot in which 1T is to be boiled
without water; it will soon make enough
liquid with its own juice; when tender,
take it out chop and season it meanwhile
allow the juice that remains in the sauce
pan to boil down then return the spinach
to it, and stew until the excess of liquid is
evaporated. Put less salt to this vegetable
than to others. 1t is hardly necessary to
say, perhaps, that salt must always be
boiled with vegetables.

SPRING DISEASES. very large amount
of the discomfort, lassitude, depression and
actual sickness which prevails in the spring
can be modified or wholly avoided by the
exercise of a little reflection and self-denial.
One of the main objects of eating in the
winter time is to keep US warm, and to
that end, provident nature gives vigorous
appetite in cold weather, but if, as warm
weather approaches, we eat with the appe-
tite of winter, the system not having time
to adapt the appetite to the temperature,
mischief will follow as inevitably as if a
locomotive is diminished in speed one-half
while the fires are kept burning as fiercely
as when it was moving at the utmost al
lowed rapidity. A prompt diminution at
each meal of one. third of the amount eaten
in winter, beginning before April in the
latitude Of New York, and earlier further
south, would diminish spring diseases to an
incalculable extent. II Exchange.

Says the Georgetown (Ccl.) Miner. The
old prospectors seem to be most anxious to
get on to White River Reservation and
Northwestern Colorado, where rich placers
were known to exist years ago, but the
Utes have carefully guarded the country,
and no white man has dared to do more
than wash pan of dirt and try to fix the
location, so that he could find it when the
opportunity offered.

The Kitchen stove.

For keeping my kitchen stove well pol
ished | use tin cup to hold the backing
in solution, swab Ia cloth fastened on
stick to apply it, and partlyworn broom
to brush off the superfiuous particles and
bring good polish. dissolve bit of
backing the size of half an egg, and a
large teaspoonful of brown sugar, in enough
water to mix as thick as cream. This is
applied to the top and front of the stove
while Just warm. 1t needs little expe-
rience to brush it soon enough to prevent
the formation of Jumps and streaks, and
not too much or too soon, as that would
leave the stove gray as before. Before
being applied to the hearth and sides | add
enough water to make it quite thin it is
easier made smooth, and will give fine
polish. The hearth needs brushing once
and sometimes twice day; the top
needs thorough backing three times
week, while the back and oven doors re-
quire attention once week. The sugar is
quite an important addition, as it gives
decided black that l find impossible to
obtain by any other method. One must
be careful and not add too much, as it will
swell and blister, leaving the stove rough,
and filling the house with the odor of
burnt sugar. My stove is a new one, and
all the knobs are bright steel-colored,
They were really ornamental when first set
up, but l find considerable difficulty in
keeping those at the front bright. They
turn blue, then gray, with heat, which
color they retain unless secured two or
three times week. Whiting is good to
rub them with, also water lime, coal or
wood ashes, or fine sand. The latter 1 find
quite effective; still, if was choosing
again, would get a stove without these
spots of brightness, as prefer black rather
than dingy knobs Country Gentleman.
