ALETrER TO GARFIELD.

Dom Piatt in his paper. The Capitol
publishes an open letter addressed to the
Hon. James a. Garfield, which, owing to
the friendly relations known to exist
between these two gentlemen. has pro-
duced decided sensation at Washington.
The letter is quite lengthy. The following
are brief extracts therefrom:
MY DEAR GENERAL: Now that this
senseless political row is over, and you are
the president-elect, venture. before you
are buried in that mansion, through the
thick walls and plate glass of which no
word of truth ever reaches the incumbent,
to write you few words in the same init
mate and friendly spirit that marked our
intercourse when both occupied cheap
boarding house; when carried my fortune
on the slender nib of my pen as O newspa-
per correspondent, and you sought to sup
port yourself and family on the meagre
pay of congressman. / 60 back to the
time when you would gladly accapt my
aid and sympathy in your troubles: and
my heartfelt congratulations in your tri -
umphs; and I yours. / feel more anxiety
about you, my friend. now that you are
fortunate. than in the darkest hour oil
your lite, when life itself seemed SO hor-
rible that an escape from it was tempta-
ton. You have passed from the hands oil
friends to the keeping of enemies to play
the part Of executive for four years.

an infamv as that upon which he was
elected. 1--WE have among ia certain per-
sons who are bent on changing the form
of our present government. They seek to
make the presidency e life tenure. and

You know the man who is TO serve the
purpose in the treasonable scheme. They

posed popularity"
Mr.. Piatt warns Mr.. Garfield against
the politicians, who are determined. as he
has indicated, to change the form of the
government, and hopes thatahe will have
nothing to do with them, except looking to
breaking their power. He uses the follow
ing language, which has attracted more
attention than any other part of the letter
1t was your committee that inVestiga~
ted that national shame called Black
Friday. wherein Fisk, Gould, and Grant
sought, through use of the national
treasury, to enrich themselves at the ex
pense of thousands of honest men. 1t

lDfamy. The chief criminal was traced to the
threshold ofthe executive mansion, and Jour

the president to appear before the com.

ator. The night of the day that ths
resolution was passed you called with /
upon the president, 1t was-after midnigh
before you left the white house, amazed
and sick at heart, and at your suggestior
that very day the resolution was revoked
| need not say that you and l know why
that resolution was so suddenly abandoned
The fact that under the circumstances it,
was revoked. tells the whole story. The
very Democrats of the committee shrank
from the threatened exposure"
The letter closes as follows:
But you are not great man. You
read in your library of heroic achievement
Your soul swells over the poetic expires
sions. You are full of thought and
impulse, and all ends in support of men
you despise and party with which you

About Boiling Eggs.

There is an objection to the common
way of boiling eggs which people do not
understand: 1t is this: The white, under
three minutes rapid cooking becomes
tough and iudipestible. while the yoke is
left ut-Wben properly cooked, eggs are
done evenly through like soy other food
This result may be obtained by putting
the eggs into a dish with cover. as tlu
pail, aud then pouring upon them boiling
bot water, two quarts or more to dozen
eggs. and cover and set them away from
the stove for fifteen minutes. The heat
Of the water cooks the eggs ssowly, evenly
and sufficiently. and to jolly Ike eonsis
tency, leaving the centre, or yolk harder
hau the white. and the egg tastes as much
richer and nicer as fresh egg in nicer
than a stale egg. No person will want 10

The Minnesota Holocaust.

The frightful loss OF life blythe FIRE at the
warning that better means should be
provided for the escape in such cases OF
the poor helpless patients. It appears. from
the reports at hand, which are complete
enough as to loss of life. but very inacur
ate as to cause of fire, that there were
absolutely no means of protection against
a great fire; that the avenues of escape
were few and difficult; that the patients
were over crowded, and that no sort OF
system was in force to save the poor fellowe
who were confined within the wall of the
asylum. IF the telegraph reports are
reliable, there was but one passage way on
each floor. and that elevators. ladders. and
fire escapes were not in use. the only
means of rescuing patients being by i'm
provised ways at the time of the FIRE
This is not the first FIRE where human be-
Jugs have been roasted alive through i'm
perfect accommodations, and it is about
time that more rigid laws were enacted TO
guard against such criminal negligence
and severely punish those who fail to obey
the law. 1t is to be hoped for humanity
sake that the present accounts OF the FIRE
are not authentic-that later reports may
show different condition of things, but at
present there can be nothing but censure
for those whose business it was to guard
against such accidents as this. and whose
failure to do so, must be olassed as crimi~
nal negligence. and on them rests the
responsibility for the literal murder of q
