A petition has been forwarded to the
President of the Now Orleans, Alexan-
dria aud Pine Bluff Railroad urging
some attention to be directed to a route
which will relieve the survey recently
made, via Monroe, of many of its
obstacles and will be infinitely more
feasible in every particular. This route
lies Immediately north of Trenton and
nearly within her corporate limits.
The basis upon which this route is re-
garded AS being preferable, is that
New Orleans would obtain a more
direct line and one avoiding the over
flow of the Cheniere and the DETECTION,
nine miles necessary to reach Monroe.
Alexandria is IS miles west Of Trenton,
upon Il longitudinal line, and n route
from that place upon an air line to
Pine Bluff would avoid entirely the
swamps of the Cheniere and the brakes
contiguous to this side the river, below
this point.
This is no idle speculation, bat a
demonstrable fact, to be tested when
ever the president shall order this sur
vey to be made. Again, it is matter of
incontestible proof that there is no
better point to bridge the Ouachita
from its source to its mouth than Just
above Trenton, for there is, besides a
bend that weakens the force of the cur
rent, firm rock bottom, and distance
to he SPAWNED Of only 1875 or 400 feet
We have every reason to believe that
this survey will be found to be as re-
presented and as the petition indicates.

The Proposed Watering of Central
stock,

If the movement to stock the Ocean
Steamship Company and divide such
stock cut among the stockholders of the
Central Railroad succeeds, we believe it
will be a serious blow 10 the future
value of that stock aud to the future
prosperity of the road. Last year the
stock was virtually watered 40 per cent.
by means of six per cent. scrip divl-
dends, and now it is proposed to water
it 50 per cent. more. Thus the original
stock will be nearly doubled, and a
tremendous additional obligation will
be placed upon the road-so
tremendous that we do not
believe the road will be able
to stagger under it and make future
dividends And when it is remembered
that there may come another panic, and
that in less than six months there will
certainly be a formidable rival to the
Central in the Macon and Brunswick
Railroad, the extreme unwisdOm OF thus
knocking the props from under GeOrgia's
great railway system becomes more and
more apparent In brief, the proposed
plan will emphatically be killing the
goose which lays the golden egg, and, in
the end, no one will be benefited by it
but spectators.

Issuss Enough.

The St. Louis Republican thinks that
the talk we are now hearing about
tissues" between the two great parties
in the country is all balderdash. 1t is OF
the opinion that there are issues enough
in the attitude of leading Republicans
before the country and the world at
this time, which may well awaken the
anxiety of the people. For instance, it
cites the fact that James G. Blaine, ex-
Secretary of State, and the most con-
spicuous figure in the Republican party,
is arraigned by Republican journals as
betrayer of high official trusts, and as
using his powerful official position to
aid schemes of speculation and oppres-
sion in foreign lands. John Sherman,
now a Senator of the United States,
and lately Secretary of the Treasury,
is at this moment the subject of an in-
vestigation which implies the most
disreputable practices in office,
and this at the instance OF
his own party, and with the strongest
suggestions from that quarter of his
guilt The President of the United
States was lately the Collector of the
port of New York From that place he
was driven with the official stigma. fixed
on him by the administration he served,
that his removal was necessary to secure
the honest discharge of the duties which
his Office imposed. The late President
Hayes is known to have been the hypo'
critical tool of corporations and indi-
viduals, who set themselves above the
law, and is shown to have approved
plundering laws, which took hundreds
of millions from the public Treasury,
only because he feared that to interpose
his veto would be detrimental to his
party.
"These are the men and this the stan
dard of public morality" says our West
ern contemporary (which prevail in the
Republican party. 1t would seem that
the people would fad reason enough in
these facts to sweep from power the
ruling party Wehedr much of issues,
or rather the want of issues. If there
were nothing else the issue between de
moralization and corruption on the one
hand, and decency and good reputation
on the other, there would be no lack of
reason for change of administration.

HOW AUSTRIAN LADIES LEARN TO
COOK.
Hotel NALL

- & I'll 'HE.4 ."" r
The Austrian lady of station who
does not know how to cook, one may
almost say does not exist. Every de.
with. A story is told by! Austrian
ladies of another who, having neg.
lected her education, allowed, at q
great dinner party she gave. two
dishes Of the same color to be served
wac hardly to be forgiven. The prin-
cesses Of the royal households attend
q course of lectures from a chef en-
ttrely' upon the order OF serving.
Young ladies do not learn the art Of
cooking at cooking Cube, or from
public lessons as here in A merica, and
they rarely learn In their. own kitch-
ems. 1t is the custom to go to some
great house, the house OF q princess
OF at . very. rich bankers, where
there are famous chefs, feom whom
they learn. When a chef engages to
cook for Q great house he stipulates
that he is to have the privilege OF
teaching as many young ladies as he
chooses. These young ladies need
not even know the mistress of the
house aud they make their arrange
ments with the cook only. For a
course Of lessons lasting through the
winter each pupil pays the cook 80
gulden, about $15. This includes in
struction in every particular. If a
banquet is to be given,a grand break
fast or an elaborate supper, the young
ladies are notified and are. there to
see the dishes decorated and to learn
the order of serving. They watch
every process. Were you to descend
to'a Kitchen at such q time you would
no doubt find these girls suffusedi with
bushes ; for those lessons always fore
tell marriage and are the last and
finishing touches of amaiden's educa-
ton. But it would be 4 breach OF
etiquette for any member of the
household to trespass in that depart
ment, which belongs to the cook and
his. noble young pupils. This is very
much as ii the cooks of the Astors
and Vaqderbilts were permitted to
q half.dozen young ladies
from Fifth avenue ON the occasion of
very grand dinner-psfty and ex-
plain to them the mysteries of each
dish as it left their hands. Since
young ladies must be in the dining
room themselves on such occasions in
their own households, it follows that
these processes they cannot watch at
home never mind OH how grand q
scale thugs are. And SO in Austria
all noble young ladies learn these
III another Kitchen than their
