THE ILLINOIS VOTE.

| SPRINGFIELD, Nov. 8.-The Secretary
of State has received an abstract of the
otfcial vote on President from, 81 counties,
not including Cook, and representing less
than halt the vote OF the state. These
| show Republican gains of 5,372. and
Democratic gains of l.498, the net Re.
publican gain being 1874. With the
known gains in Cook and other large
counties, the returns received indicate a
majority of over 5000 for Garfield. Sim
liar returns from 50 counties, being the
same ones with very few exceptions, show
gain of 9.744 by Gov. Cuilom over his
vote IN 1876 and loss ct 302. his net
gain being 9,442 This indicates that
Cuilona's majority over Trun nbull will be
over 50, 600 IT the remaining returns show
the same percentage Of gain. He has lost
in only three OF 50 couuties thus far
returned, while there are many in which
he has gained upwards of 700 votes in
each.
In the Eighth Congressional district,
Payson's majority over Wallace, official,
is 2,732 The next Legislature will con-
vene w ednesday, Jan 5. and the contest
for the speakership of the House will soon
begin TO grow interesting. The House
will be composed very largely of new
members. which renders it im possible to
cake any predictions as to their probable
choice. Gen. II. Ii, Thomas of Chicago
and the Hon. Thomas T. Mitchell, of
Bloomington. are already in the field. and
will undoubtedly be The leading candidates
for the position.

A Chinese Vegetable.

Some experiments recently carried
on by two or three Austrian and
German horticulturists have brought
into notice an almost forgotten plant
which was introduced into Europe
from China, nearly thirty years ago,
but whose existance and whose pro-
ducts have been undeservedly lost
sight OF. This is the SOFA hispidd, a
species of luguminous plant, some
what resembling in habit and appear
ance the we'll known pea. Unlike
the latter, however, it has two dis
tinct uses-industrial as we'll as ali
mentary. 1t is highly priced in
China and Japan, and is said, indeed,
to take it's scientific title from the
Japanese name OF sauce sooJa-
which is made from its seeds. The
seeds are very similar to "rnarrow
fat" pea, but contain large quantity
of oil, which is either pressed out OF
them or boiled out in process OF
cooking the seeds for the table, which
is effected by simply throwing them
into hot water, when the outer skin
bursts and floats to the surface, to
getber with quantity OF oil, both
the oil and the husks being skinned
off together. These may be either
used as cattle food, or the oil may be
separated and employed tor various
purposes, while the husks are still
valuable as feeding stuff or as ma
nure. The peas are boiled tor about
twenty minutes, and furnish dish
which is highly relished, not only by
the Celestials, but by the Europeans
who have tasted it. 1t is said to re-
semble in flavor the green pea, but
lacks lis sweet taste. The boiled
SOFA is also prepared as cake and as
sauce, being termented tor The lat
ter purpose, and salt, pepper, etc,
being added. The sauce has a high
reputation among the Chinese and
japanese, not merely as a condiment,
but as medicinal agent. Chemical
analysis Of the seeds shows them to
be very rich in proteine. The oil is
available for many uses-for burning
in lamps OF even as substitute for
olive OIL Bong somewhat of a sic.
cative nature, it is not adapted for a
lubricant, but it is for that reason
useful as a substitute for linseed oil
in the manufacture OF paints and in
other similar industrial arts. Finally,
to complete the list of virtues of this
Celestial pea, the haulm gives an ex-
cellent fodder for cattle and horses.

Curious Phenomenon in Plant

From the EreniHg Post.
There may be seen at the house OF
Mr.. E. j. LOOMS, of the Nautical
Alminac Office, a curiosity and a
mystery in plant life which is attract
ing the study of some eminent boian-
lists. The gentleman, himself an ex-
cellent botanist, dug up glass dish
tull Of a common fern, Aspleni,tns
arichonaanes, while visiting the
White Sulpher Springs in Virginia,
last autumn, and carried the plants
home to ornament chamber. What
was his astonishment to observe,
after his return, that several fronds ct
the fern maintained steady move.
ment through from twenty to forty
degrees, similar to that made by the
crooking of finger or the swinging
of a pendulum.
This movement continuing he be-
came more and more interested,
searching for information among
books and botanists, and finding no
explanation wrote to Professor Asa
Grey, of Harvard College, for solu-
ton OF the mystery. This eminent
authority not only had none 20 offer
but expressed the greatest desire to
study personally so extraordinary a
phenomenon, and while in Washing
ton recently in connection with the
annual meeting Of the regents of the
Smithsonian Institution he passed
much time in close scientific study
OF the ferns, and mentions the facts In
the March number of the Botanical
Gazette.
The fronds have preserved their
curious movement all winter, showing
greater energy in the sunlight than
when under the influence OF gas-jets,
but never The less maintaining a
steady swaying movement. The
little ternery is exciting attention In
scientific circles quite out OF proper
ton to its tiny area, being constant
ly visited by persons well known for
the highest scholarly attachments.
Perhaps, from my account, 1t seems
no more wonderful than the game of
fifteen; but once within its influence,
it holds the visitor as reslstlessly as
does that fascinating puzzle, or as
did the glittering eye the Ancient
Mariner.

quently to permit flowers and fruit to
amount to anything except on pre-
pared southern exposures, and no
oranges can be grown fit to eat
except under glass. The air of the
Mediterranean is dry and frequently
irritating when it is not damp.
Respirators are very commonly worn.
The statistics of throat and lung
troubles can therefore hardly COM
pare with the table of deaths from
consumption in Florida According
to the United States census OF 1870
the number of deaths from consump-
ton in ten states was as follows In
Massachusetts, person in 283
Maine, 315; New York, 379; Califor-
MIA, $50; Vermont, 463; Ohio, 507 !;
Virginia, 585; Indiana, 500; Illinois,
69S; while Florida which has been
the State chosen by the consump-
tives of the Union for residence,
shows one death in 1 ,433 inhabitants.
Taking all the varied forms of con-
sumption into account, some of
which might be durable in a cold
climate, this showing should satisfy
physician to try Florida for every
one having consumptive tendency,
and to try the country where his pa.
tent can live in the open air, aud
not the cities, like St. Augustine or
Jacksonville, where the hotel life of
winter too closely resembles, the
same life during summer months in
the north. A short residence in
Florida will bring any one in contact
with scores of people who heartily
enjoy healthy exile among fruits,
flowers, and the beauties which
nature lavishes here, and wonder why
they ever hesitated to make it their
home. A large and industrious popu-
lation is now pouring into Florida.
The population of Jacksonville has
increased 10 per cent. since last year.
and the shores of the St. Johns River
show residences to be multiplying.
Some fifteen steamers do business on
this beautiful river, and it is not I'M
likely that Florida will become the
saniarium of the world of consump-
tives-rivaling Egypt in climate,
civilization and soil, and perfectly
healthtul for permanent residence,
certainly for ten months ofthe year. i"

The gist of scientific dissertations
upon manures may be formulated to
this: 'Plants that are grown for
their leaves, as cabbage, rhubarb,
etc., should be fed with an abundance
of heterogeneous manures, such as is
furnished by the barn yard. Plants
grown for their seeds, as peas, beans,
etc., are injured by this class of ma
nures, which causes them to run too
much to vine. They should be sup
piled with mineral manures, such as
