only be defeated by fraudulent count. The
ONLY gains shown by the Republican party, or
claimed by them, are in Democratic counties,
inaccessible by telegraph and away from lines

AdulteratiOn Of Groceries.

THE Massachusetts, Board of Health
reports that authorizations of staple gro
ceries are not as common as the public
have been led to suppose. For the pur-
pose of test, the expert of the Board
took samples of flour, sugar, bread
soda, cream of tartar and baking pow
ders, obtained in stores in forty cities
and towns. The flour was found in all
instances to be wholly free from foreign
substances, and, with the exception of
one or two coarse varieties of brown
sugar, no adulteration was perceptible
in that article; and in these isolated
cases there was reason for thinking that
the defects were due to imperfections
in the process of manufacture. The
soda examined, although sold under a
variety of names, such as saleratus, BIZ
carbonate, supercarbonate and cooking
soda, was all found to be much the same
article, and nearly all of it good. The
poor soda was that which had not been
properly purified of the crude soda ash,
but this sulphate is not injurious to
health. Baking powders were found to
be pure in twenty-four instances out of
thirty-three. The adulteration con-
sisted in an excess of -four or starch
over that needed for mixing the soda
and cream or tartar. There was also
some alum found. In cream of tartar
considerable amount of adulteration
was detected.

AT Barnes. Surry, England, is a
church, on the south side of which,

trees. They are cultivated in pur-
suance of the will of Mr.. Edward Rose,

chase of an acre of land, the income of
which was applied to the cultivation of

WORD comes down from Garrett
county that a debating society has
been organized up there. A fellow
named Bulkins was the moving spirit
and continues to be the sweet bulbul
of discussion. He lays over EN- all
in big words and the ruralists have
to yield without knowing what they
have surrendered to. He Aanked
them the other night richly. The
question was:
as ROSTERS knowledge of day-break
the result of instinct or observation:
To head off Bulkins schoolmast er
was imported from Preston county
who stated that he once knew Of a
rooster who in the line Of his profess
sion as chanticleer crowed SO loudly
one morning that he "busled his cur
vilinear cantcgas photobia. This
lucid remark was greeted with a
storm of applause from the dsspisers
Of Bulkins.
The imperturable Bulkins took the
floor and replied
Mr.. President While largely coincide
with the gentleman who has iist sot down
/ must observe that the most impregnable
obstacle III the way of unitarian ornitho-
logical intelligence is the Interchangeable
bias of the species toward hysteria larynx-
ia pologolomen cauphemia
The Bulkins haters were parslyzed
knocked off their pins-Aoored.
The debate was lost again in spite of
West Virginia learning, and Eulkins,
summoning a constable for body"
guard, gathered up his documents and
stalked home grinning like water
melon with Icing slice out.
