The action Of the Pennsylvania Repub-
licans in instructing their delegates to the
National Convention 70 vote for General
Grant. has not had the effect upon the
country that the managers expected It
was intended that the action Of Pennsyl-
vania, BY reason Of its central position and
powerful vote, would create such an en-
thusiasm throughout tho UuiOn that other
Republican State conventions would speed
ily follow her example. But instead OF
enthusiasm, notes Of discomfort are heard.
The step is almost universally regarded as
improper, and the Republican press OF
Peunsylvania Is nearly a unit in condemn
ing the action Of the convention, while one
Of the delegates, e least, has ayowed his
determination to disregard his instructions

Of the r. :ablican press, 50 caDdidly ex'

Gen. Grant would be the weakest candi-
date the Republicans could select, and il
would seem that Mr.. Blaine is the greatest
favOrite with the party. Unless there Is
vast change in Republican sentiment he
will be nominated on the first ballot a

The January number Of the British Quar-
terly Reriew is before US. During recent
years we hare noticed IN il not a few papers
by Edward A. Freeman, the historian, and
the leading article in the presens number,
eThe Lords Of Ardres,n is from his pen, and
will be very interesting to the student Of
medieval history.
"Glimpses of New Gold and Silver Mines
gives brief sketch Of the various processes
adopted in mining, with some account of the
present and probable future production Of
these metals Modern Greece, paper by
DR.. Sandwich, comments on the history of
Greece since the battle Of Navarino, aud es-
peeially condemns the policy Of England with
respect to the Greek cause.
Other articles are 'sPraetical Aesthetics,
'sThe Christian Idea Of God,'i which deals
especially with the doctrine Of incarnation;
early Noneoaformist Psalmody,'' an anus
ing account of the troubles attending the in.
PRODUCTION Of singing in pebble worship; "Why
is Scotland Radicalf'' "Mr Gladstone and the
Nation;n and Contemporary Literature
The reprint Of the Edinburgh Rsrier for
January has been received Itisihe practice
of this and the other Quarterly Reviews to
give careful consideration to the principal
topics which are attracting public attention,
and hence we have in this number two arti-
cles which are worth reading. That entitled
Agricultural Depression" admits that the ag-
ricalture of England is passing through Crisis
Of unprecedented severity, and discusses its
causes and effect under the heads Of foreign
competition, the land laws, and the relations
Of landlords and tenants The other article
70 which we refer ''Ireland her Present and
her Future calmy discusses the schemes
which have been proposed to remedy the
present condition Of ireland, and indicates
the chief means by which her progressis like
ly 10 be assured.

Warm weather Diet.

The first warm days are fruitful OF
about the failure of appetite.
Breakfasts are no longer relished; din
ners afford but languid interest, and
suppers seem superfluous. Only vigor-
GUS workers out of doors, or young peo-
pie who are so blessed as not yet 10 have
made the acquaintance OF their stomacns,
come to the table with real zest Tor
food. And it is no wonder, considering
how few people have yet learned the art
of altering their diet to suit their own
conditions and the state OF the season.
The spring appetite fails and ought to
fail, before ham and eggs or a great
piece of steak, on these enervating hrst
warm mornings of the year. Rich soups,
heavy meats and all stimulating and
blood making articles Of diet, that met a
real want in the nipping and eager air OF
winter, are as much out of place now as
the furs and ulsters. And yet many a
person who would think it a sign of
lunacy TO dress in the December style in
May, does not appear to see T.ny incon-
gruity in eating in the December fashion
Food. and coal create heat, and thick
clothing and tight houses preserve 1t for
the comfort of the body in winter. Iet
men who know enough TO dump their
furnaces, open the windows and lay OIL
are stupid enough to keep on stoking
their stomach at full blast and consider
themselves "out-of- sorts and Ill II
nature resents the abuse.
1t is time to let up on the cold weather
diet-especially for persons doomed TO
live indoors. A mold of well-cooked
oatmeal, served cold VITA cream and
sugar, with two or three oranges and a
! cup of coffee, makes an adequate ana
appetizing breakfast. All traits and
vegetables attainable fit in well at this
season. The many preparations OF the
small grains afford a variety which 1t
is well 10 study. Milk and eggs and hsh
contain all the needed food-eiements for
a diet of month or two, with such
sugar and starch as the housewife COM
bines in toothsome light puddings or
other desserts. Whether we eat to live
or live to eat, we ought to be rational
enough to dispense wiCh food when not
hungry and to tempt rather than force
the appetite. Golden Rule.
