FOREIGN NOTES.

The German government has or
dered the expulsion of Mormon mis-
siOnaries who have been endeavor-
ing to make prOselytes.
The correspondent of the Paris
Int1'anStgednt in st. Petersburg, who
processes to be equally we'll inform
ed as to the movements |. in the pal
aces and the plans OF. the Nihilists,
writes that the Empress recently
discovered between the leaves of
her prayer-book, q sheet of paper
with pen-and-ink drawing on each
side. Each sketch presented q glib
bet, on one of which Hessy Hoffman
was seen hanging, and on the other
her majesty. Beneath were writ
ten the words, can eye for an eye.
Your child will meet the same fate
as mine" The Empress is said to
have tainted on reading this 'lugu-
brious threat.
"A great procession, such one
as Europe has not seen for some
years, is now ON the march. 1t is
not SO gay and picturesque process
sion as that which recently entered
the city of Venice amidst the BOOM
ing of cannon, the ringing of count
less bells and the plaudits of the
multitude, but is nevertheless a
great procession, worthy of some
notice. Riding ahead is company
of cossacks heavily armed. Behind
them are twelve regiments of human
beings, one thousand to each regi
ment, men, women and children,
broken-hearted and forlorn Most
of this wretched army wear heavy
manacles on their ankles and are
destined for the dungeons of
far-off Siberia, sometimes known as
the lead and silver mines. Their
crime consists in their loving liberty
more than slavery. On all sides OF
this mournful thrOng are Cossacks,
and doubtless another company OF
them is in the rear to see that no one
of the poor unfortunates, weighted
with chains, shall perchance escape.
No country but Russia would per-
nit itself to be disgraced by the
passage of such procession.

The internal revenue receipts for
the ten months of the current fiscal
year ending April 80, amounted in
round numbers to sos, zoo, 900, which
was an increase ofSS, 100000 over the
receipts for the corresponding pc
Rod of the last fiscal year. 1t is es-
timated that the collections during
the two remaining months, May and
June of the current year will be
about $26, 100000, making the total
receipts about $134, 100000 for the
entire year, a gain of $4,000, 900 over
the receipts of last year. The in
crease thus far has occurred chiefly
in the collectors on cigarettes. The
outlook now is that the customs re-
ceipts for the current fiscal year will
be aboutnthe same as for last year.

Sour Stomach.

II the food taken into the stomach is not
digested it decomposes. In the latter case u
pungent gas is developed which causes sour
eructations, or else the stomach itself secrets
an acid, which rising upward at intervals
stings the gullet sharply. These extreme
disagreeable sensations are attributable to
impaired digestion. To get rid of them,
or prevent their reoccurrence, it is only
necessary to tone and regulate the gastric
organs with Hostetters Bitters. 1t will
not answer to postpone the great cor
receive with the idea that the unpleasant
symptoms will disappear of themselves
So far from that being the case, they almost
invariably eliminate if neglected, in
chronic dyspepsia, with its concomitants OF
gnawing in the stomach, dizziness, per-
verted vision, headache, and slecpessness.
1t is true that all these disagrecables may
be obviated by course of the Bitters; but
how much wiser to anticipate their arrival
with one or two doses OF that sure proven
tive of indigestion and strengthened of the
alimentary organs.

THE GRAY Mare is the Better Horse"

Notes ana Queries.
The proverbial saying. instead Of be-
inc Flemish, Is more likely of British
origin. and may have taken its rise
from the following circumstances; A
gentleman having married a lady Of
considerable beauty and fortune, whose
domineering temper and disregard of
material authority on all occasions
made his home wretched, entreated her
father to take back his daughter, and
her dowry into the bargain. 'Pooh,
poohp' said the old gentleman, "you
know not the world. All women gov
ern their husbands, and 1t is easily
proved. Harness the five horses in my
stable to cart in which l will place a
basket containing 100 eggs; leave a
horse in every house where the husband
is master, and an egg only where the
wife governs. If you should find your
eggs gone before the horses, you will
think your case Is not uncommon; but
if the horses are disposed of first will
take my daughter home again and you
may take her fortune" At the first
house the son-in-law came to, he heard
the wife. in shrill and angry voice,
bid her husband answer the door; here
he left an egg without any inquiry.
He visited second and third house
with the same result. The eggs were
nearly all gone when he alsived at the
seat of q gentleman of position in the
county. Having asked for the master,
who happened not to be yet stirring,
he was ushered into the presence of the
lady. Humbly apologizng for the in
trusion, no put the question of obedi-
ence; and on the lady replying she was
proud to obey her husband in all things,
the husband entered the room and con-
firmed his wife's words; upon which he
was requested to choose which horse
he liked. A black gelding struck his
fancy, but the lady desired he would
choose the gray mare as more fit for
sde-saddle. Notwithstanding the SUBJ
stantial reasons given why the black
horse would be more useful, the wife
persisted in her claim for the gray
mare. "Whatr' said she, "and will
you not take her thenp But say you
shall; for am sure the gray mare is
much the better horse" "Well, well,
my DEAR" replied the husband; 'just
as you please, if it must be So" "Oh,"
quoth the gentleman-carter, "you must
now take an egg, and l must take all
my horses back again, and endeavor to
i've happily with my wife"

Eggs vs.. Meat.

Poultry Review.
Would ii not be wise to substitute
more eggs for meat in our daily dietP
About one-third of the weight OF an egg
is solid nutriment. This is more than
can be said of meat. There are no
bones, no tough pieces that have to be
laid aside. A good egg is made up OF
ten parts shell, sixty parts white and
thirty parts yolk. The white of an egg
contains sixty-six per cent. water, the
yolk iifty-two per cent. Practically an
egg is animal food, and yet there is
none of the disagrceable work OF the
butcher necessary TO obtain it. The
yegetarians Of England use eggs freely,
and many Of these men are eighty and
ninety years old, and have been re-
markably free from illness. Eggs are
best when cooked four minutes This
takes away the animal taste that is Of
fensive to some, but does not harden
the white or yolk so as to make them
hard to digest. An egg, If cooked very
hard, is difficult of digestion except by
those of stout stomachs. Such eggs
should be eaten with bread and masti-
Gated very finely. An egg spread on
toast is fit food for king, If kings de-
serve any better food than anybody
else, which is doubtful. Fried eggs are
less wholesome than boiled ones. An
egg dropped into hot water is not only
clean and handsome, but delicious
morsel. Most people spoil the taste of
their eggs by adding pepper and salt.
little sweet buttor is the best dress ing.
Eggs contain much phosphorus, which
is supposed to be useful to those who
use their brains much

Garden Labels,

1t is laid down as an axiom that the
mere saving by growing ones own veg
etables is not all the profit. The pleas
ure of seeing things grow, and the
comparisons which one Is able to make
between one variety and another, has a
good deal to do with the satisfaction
which well-kept vegetable garden
gives. Yet this latter pleasure is often
lost on account of indifference or care
lessness in labelling the varieties when
the seeds are sown. 1t is extremely
Notifying to take friend through the
garden, and when he admires a par
ticular bean or pea to be unable TO
remember what they are, and so on all
through. Sometimes we find that a
piece of chip has been stuck in and
penciled with the name, but that is long
since illegible; or perhaps twig has
been cut and split, and the paper label
folded and stuck in, but now widowed
or rotten. For garden labels there is
nothing yet discovered superior to pine
sticks cut into lengths of say ten or
twelve inches, split thin, one side
shaved with pocketknife, and then
very lightly painted with white lead,
and firmly written on with a pencil.
Every garden should be provided with
about hundred of these against
the spring-sowing season, and they
should BIO kept conveniently at hand,
so as to be just within reach when
wanted. This is q hint which may
seem to many to be of the over-prac-
teal kind. No doubt everybody feels
that he "knows this already" Perhaps
he does, but from the number whom we
see neglect 1t, we feel sure that the
hint will not be wholly thrown away

A Losing Joke.

said jokingly to lady patent who was
complaining Of her continued i'll health,
and of his inability to cure her, "try Hop
Bitters!" The lady took it In earnest and
used the Bitters, from which she obtained
permanent health. She now laughs at the
doctor for his joke, but he is not so well
pleased with it, as it cost him good

THE RESULT IN CECIL.

Throughout this entire campaign we
have urged upon the Republicans of Cecil
county the necessity of organization and
effort rs only being required to place the
county where she properly belongs-in
the ranks of the Republican counties OF
the State. The results of Tuesdays
election show by what a slight tenure the
Democrats hold control of the counties
Of the State; and there was no sufficient
reason why Cecil county should not have
been added to the victorious column
There is not an intelligent voter in Cecil
county, who has any knowledge of its
politics, that did not know that the di-
vi,ied condition and general dissatistac-
tion that existed in the Democratic racks
placed success within reach of the Re
publicans. 1t is true that we were con-
fronted with Democratic majority of
about three hundred and fifty. that the
election of a Democratic State Senator
from this county was an essential factor
in the future plans of prominent Demo-
cratic leaders, but still we believe that
success was within our reach had the
Republican voters of the county fully
appreciated their opportunity and thrown
into the campaign the vigor that charac-
terized them when they were in ma
.iority.

DAKOTA AT THE DOOR.

Another Territory knocks at the door
of the Federal Union, and her rappihg is
likely to be SO vigorous, it is said. that
the Congressman who are to assemble in
Washington four weeks from next Mon
day vii! be compelled to hear it. The
inhabitants of the Territory certainly
present an array of forciblc arguments
i'll favor of admission as State Da-
kota had 135, $50 inhabitants when Gen.
Walker took the census Of 1880, and il
is believed that the number las Increased
to 1G5, 600 or 40 600 at the present time.
The Territory IS twice as large as Ne
braska, and it is proposed to make 4
State Of the southern half. which CON
tains nearly thrcc-fourtif of the whole
population, or 10, 600 to l20. 600 inhabi-
tauts. AS Arkansas. Florida, California
Oregon and Nevada had less than 100000
inhabitants when admitted as States, the
people of Southern Dakota would have
reason to feel themselves wronged if eX-
cluded from the Union on account of
their small number. But their best
claim to admission is founded on the
rapid development of the agricultural
mineral and timber resources Of the
Territory. With 900 miles of railway
in operation and more in process of con-
struction, Southern Dakota is making
rapid progress in wealth, and Il heathful
climate is attracting rapid immigration.
Her right to admission to the l'ui0u can
not long be disputed.
