Editor Patriot Democrat.

Edi,o, Patriot Democrat.
The New Orleans Democrat has he
come the "Fourth Department of Gov
crlmcnt,' and has authoritativcly as
srlnch the control of the country press.
II has issued it's manifesto, that there
shall be no criticism Of the present state

II says Of Senator MaBton that he
lives i'll Il jungle, that bis diet at home
is Hap, jacks and buttcrmlk,' and says
this in answer to the criticisms Of Scna-
tor MarSton, wherein he says he was III,
ardent Wilt man before the nomina-
ton, as against Ogden or anyone else,
bnt that his observations during the
late session of the Senate changed his
mind entirely. That Governor Witt
had failed to exercise that influence and
control IN tn" interest of economy and
reform that was expected Of him
We take it that the New Orleans
Democrat has said the hardest things
it could about Senator Marston, which
amounts to this: That he is an ignor-

given such an incorrect report of their

In u matter of such Importance to the

feel so much interest it is to be regretted
! that ypn did not request TO be present at
tho meetings of the Commissioners or
obtain correct information from Il per
sonal interview viii, them, any one OF
whom would have taken. pleasure IN
giving you an accurate and full account
Of their transactions.
lit behalf Of the commissioners, and
for your better information, | will say
they have employed competent Ar
chitcct, u well known citizen Of the
State, to plan and construct the state
House, Il native of Louisiana and II gen
tIcmam who takes tho greatest pride in
being the Architect of his State Capitol,
and when il is completed the citizens OF
Baton Rouge will be pleased, not only
with its beautiful appearance, with Jts
old style preserved and improved, but,
also, satisfied with tho manner Of it's
construction.
Tho duties assigned to Mr.. Bird lo not
require him to he an ArchHcct or % me
chxnic, but that he should be an honest,
energetic, capable business man, all of
which qualifications You admit he pos

Az your statement, that the state
House will DO built hy incompetent per

calculated to mislcal the public, ! hope
you will hasten to make the correction.
AS to tho salary given I" Mr.. Bird,
there might he an honest difference Of
opinion. The Commissioners thought,
~ his duties would necessarily consume
all his time, involve him in considerable
expense, and was It position, also, OF
great responsibility, that two hundred
dollars per month was not too much,
The late Judge Avery, when the State
House was originally built, received for
the same services five per cent. on the
amount expended,

Governor Wilt is above rcproof and con.
lemnation. Never was u greater mis-.
take made; we will teach him and the
Democrat that he is Governor by our
allowance; we demand economy and re-
form instead Of the reckless cxtraya-
gatcc and corruption, and promise that
the unseem|y blackguar|ism Of gentle
men who condemn his administration by
his partners Ot the Democrat shall not
save him from that overwhelming de-.
nunciation, which will inevitably result
from the painful disappointment Of our
just expectations. Qunlicrmnstcr Burke
OF t|'c Democrat, will bo taught that
his blackgnarl clown, who puns his
checks at $40 per month, is not sufficient
for tho cxtinguishmcnt Of that gallant
true soldier and Senator B. W. Marston.
The best blood in The land flows in his
veins. Az soldier or SENATOR he is with
out rcproach. AS u soldier hc was al-

iownsr,an, was in to see us on Monday.
He had splendid report to give about
matters around his ncighborhood. At
first VIC thought that he was bent on
trouble, as he called for the fighting cdi-
tor, first thing, Upon hearing that he
was out, Shanks grew amiablc: the Cap
'tol'o" had styled him bachelor. Never
had he bccu so vilely slandcrcd. He was
well married and the proof was, that he
is the father Of n full grown young lady.
VIC apoiogizinyIy stated that his youth
fui appearance and good looks had caus.
ed our mistake. To make things pleas
ant he told lis that Union Fire Company
was making preparations to give Fair,
Grand Ball and ThcatricalS, on the 10th!
Eth, 18th and 10Th of June, to which
our fircmrh would be invited. In this
CONNECTION, We would venture to suggest
that Il very plcasurcablc excursion

which would be but Il partial recognition
Ivy our citizens, of the generosity that
our nelghbors have displayed towards
them Whenever any public object called

BLANc-MANGE FOR INvALIDs. One
ounce of gelatine, one quart OF mlk, ana
sweeten with white sugar; put on flre
and stir it until the gelatine is dissolved;
then pour into bowl and stir until 1T is
cold; flavor with vanilla; put into cold
place to stiffen.
EXCELLENT WHITE CAKE.-Two cups
of granulated sugar beaten to cream
with a scant cup Of butter, then add a
third of cup of sweet milk, the whites
of eight eggs beaten to a stiff froth, and
three and half teacupsful of sifted flour,
with two teaspoonsful of yeast powder
mixed with it. Flavor and bake in
moderate oven.
EGGS FOR WINTER UsE.-To two and
half gallons of soft water add twopounds
of salt and two ounces of saltpeter. Boil
fifteen minutes and, when almost cold,
stir in four tablespoonsful of quicklime.
Let stand two or three days, then pack
the eggs, small end down, into q stone
,.r and cover with the mixture. Keep
where it is cool and do not move the jar
REAL ANGELS FooD.-The whites of
IL eggs, one tumbler of powdered sugar,
one tumbler of flour, one teaspoopful of
baking powder; flavor to taste with bit
ter almond or orange; a pinch of salt;
sift the -four five times, the fifth time
sitting in the baking powder; sift the SUI
gar three times; beat the eggs to stiff
froth; in mixing beat as little os posi-
BILE; bake 20 minutes in a moderate oven.
FISH SoUP.-Fish soups can be made
of delicate taste, but there is no space
to enter much upon them. Take half
pound of beef or lean ham, chop it fine,
add flavoring, simmer for half an hour,
add to it one pound of fresh fish and
little vegetable, including half finely
chopped onion or parsley; simmer an
other half hour; have either steamed rice
prepared or toast cut in very small
squares; pour the soup through sieve,
either on rice or toast or two eggs beaten
up, and this soup will invigorate you.
FISH PIE-The idea should be dis
carded that fish is only an adjunct to
meat. Fish can very well stand alone
and make meal. Fish pies, covered
with suet-crust, make good meal. The
fish requires, however, little bacon put
to it, or little finely choppod-up beef or
sausage-meat, say quarter of pound,
onions finely chopped, and parsley, with
the favoring of pepper and salt and
spoonful of catsup. Well-arranged fish
pies are very relishing. Suet crust is
lighter than lard crust, but the suet must
be chopped very fine and the crust be
made with warm water.
