DRINK IN CASES OF FEvER.-There is
no more refreshing drink in cases of
fever than weak green tea, with lemon
juice added instead of milk. 1t may be
taken either cold or hot, but the latter is
preferable.

fat from the kitchen that can be turned
to good account by feeding it to the
hens. OF course where soap is made it
will be used in that way; but it is ques-

A CORRESPONDENT of the Country
Gentleman says: s'To have good pas
ture, sow three pecks to bushel of win
ter rye to the acre when the corn is
plowed the last time. Sow later if it is
not wanted knee high when the corn is
harvested. This will give splendid fall
feed. prefer it to tame grass. If a
crop is wanted take off the stock before
it thaws out in the spring, SO that they
will not tramp it. If a crop of grain is
not wanted, pillow it under in the spring
and it will make the land richer. 1t
makes good feed for all kinds of stock.
The reason that mention it now is that
farmers can secure seed and have it
ready when they need it. The rye and
corn will make splendid feed.
MARYLAND BIsCUIT.-Rub one table
spoonful each of butter and lard into one
quart of sifted flour, with one teaspoon
full of salt; gradually add milk enough
to make stiff dough, mixing it with the
hand. When the dough is mixed lay it
on Toured bread-board and beat it
with the rolling-pin, turning it continu-
ally, until it blisters and cracks loudly.
1t will require to be beaten about half
an hour. When the blisters are abund-
ant tear off pieces of the dough as large
as an egg, mold them in the form of
biscuits, prick the tops with fork, and
bake the biscuits in a rather quick oven.

A Living Death.

A REPORTER of the Courier found Ru<
dolph Meyer, a German of 48, bolstered
up in large arm chair at his home, a
comfortable looking house, No. 1879
Lock Street, yesterday afternoon. When
| IN health he was an Industrious cigar
maker, but for seven years he has not
put his hand to work. His case is pc
culiar one. In 1873 he was attacked
| with spinal sclerosis or locomotor ataxia,
which in common terms is hardening
of the posterior columns of the spinal
chord. This disease is not rare, but it
is seldom that it takes the course that it
has in this instance. Mr.. Meyer is per-
fectly helpless. 1t is only by the great
est effort that he can move his arm. He
speaks with difficulty, as his tongue and
lips seem paralyzed. But the strangest
phase of his affliction is the condition of
his body. Every part of the man ex-
cept in his head and in the region of the
heart is cold. His limbs, hands and
arms look bloodless, and no sign of life
can be detected by person unskilled in
anatomy. One seeing him asleep would
suppose him dead, with his pallid face
and motionless form. Before Mr.. Meyer
was afflicted he weighed nearly one
hundred and sixty pounds. Now he does
not weigh over sixty. He is, in fact, q
living skeleton. There is scarcely flesh
enough on his bones to cover them, and
his leg can be encircled at almost any
point with the thumb and finger. He
has no control over his lower extremi-
ties, and it is necessary to tie them to-
gether with band of cloth. He of
course has to be carried to and from his
bed. He can eat almost any kind of
food, but only the smallest quantities.
His diet is barely sufficient to keep body
and soul together. He seems to have no
control over his voice. In speaking a
word it may increase to the highest
pitch and the next instant drop to a
whisper. The man does not appear to
suffer much pain, and takes his lot in a
philosophical manner. His features are
wan and pinched, but his eye is clear.
There is no help for Mr.. Meyer, and
death will be his only relief. 1t was not
expected that he would live half as long
as he has, and the tenacity with which
he clings to life is wonderful. Doctors
gave him up long ago, and no physician
has attended him for year or more.
Mr.. Meyer came to this country some
forty years ago. He has wife and five
children, the eldest of whom is girl of
fifteen. A ball is to be given at Turn
Hall on Monday evening next, the re-
porter learned yesterday, for the benefit
of Mr.. Meyer. The man is certainly
worthy of charity, as lie is perfectly
helpless.-Syracuse (N.Y.) Courier.

Our Navy.

Some of the De Lesseps organs sneer at
the idea of the Monroe Doctrine being
enforced against European powers, be-
cause we have SO weak navy. This is
an ignoble thought. This mighty people
must not assert in its present condition
what it ought to be in condition to
maintain! That is the substance of it.
When our nationality was assailed in
1861 why did not the same policy prevail?
Why did we not wait until we had learned
the art of war and levied armies which
nothing could subdue? Where would
have been our flag, and where the bound
ary line of our pent-up nationality if such
miserable counsels had prevailed? If, as
is probable, we can never prepare for war
in time of peace, then let Us do as we have
done before: prepare for peace in time
of war. e., make ourselves strong
enough during the war to conquer a
peace. We shall never have navy until
we need one. If the Panama Canal is
commenced under our noses it will be
only question of time as to when the
United States shall deem it menace to
our commercial interests in peace,
and an interference with our rightful IA
cilitieS for defe nse in war. If at
late day we should attempt to locate
and defend naval stations on the Isthmus,
and find ourselves cuffed and kicked by
intruders from over the sea, it would be
but the hopeful beginning of the end.
We are a very spirited people after we
have received given amount of kicking.
Our weakness invites attack, our patience
under wrongs makes our assailants lash
us into wakefulness, and, as before re-
marked, we are liable after long time
to show much spirit. Whenever. we
get tired Of being the weakest we
shall make ourselves the strongest naval
power in the world. We have iron, coal,
timber, muscle, and brains adequate to
the work of building navy, and we
don't think it makes much difference by
what nation or under what pretext we
get flogged into its construction. We hope
our Congress will not hesitate to plant
this country squarely on the Monroe

Virginia RenuhIicanS-


A Washington dispatch to Virginia
paper says:
Prominent Virginia Republicans, in public
conversation in the Office of the Secretary of the
Senate this morning, stated that the proposed call
for straight-out Republican convention in Rich
mond the 10th of March. is for the express pur-
pose Ofheading General Malone off with the Gar
field administration.
Are the prominent Virginia Republi-
cans" who publicly converse in Secretary
Burch's office as to the desirability of
straight Republican tender to the Bour-
bon Funder machine in Virginia, afraid
that they would lose ground by waiting?
Is their case SO desperate that they must
rush frantically into the field and try to
carry the State Central Committee of
the Republican party by storm ?
Does the faction which is just now
being petted by the Bourbons and
holding seances in Democratic offices ex-
pect to appear as numerous as it can be
noisy?
The State Central Committee of the Re-
publican party of Virginia consists of
twenty-seven members. Its chairman is
eX-United States Senator John F. Lewis
There is a subcommittee of nine, of which
General Wickham is chairman. This COM
mittee has met, and some members, and
others who were not members, have ex-
pressed themselves in favor of a Republi-
can State convention, to be held March 10.
Thisis sincerely suggestion to the State Cen
trail Committee, and being clearly move
ment to take snap judgment on the party
at a time when the utmost prudence and
deliberation are required, we do not be-
heve the suggestion will be needed.
There is no reason why party conven-
tion should be held in March to nomi-
nate ticket to be voted for more than
half year afterward. We hope the State
committee will quietly suppress the un-
wise proposition.
We think three-fourths of the white
Republicans, and nearly all the blacks,
are in favor of aiding the Readjusters on
liberal law-and-order platform, and that
they will give an unmistakable expression
to that effect in any Republican State
convention that may be held in Virginia
this year We believe that in pursuing
such course they will have the approval
and support of the body Of the party
throughout the country.

1t may be said that if the longtime
threes should 60 to premium the four and
four and half would 60 so high as to
yield less than three per cent. to the pur-
chaser. This is not q danger to be much
feared, in view of the quotations of Eng
lish three per cent. consols. They will as
often be below as above par, and in COM
pensating degree in both cases. There is
no danger but that we can purchase Our
Indebtedness at any time to come at a
rate to net the Government three per
cent. or more.
If short loani made, all the revenues
being devoted to its redemption would
perhaps keep it at par but this would
make it impossible to buy other bonds at
more advantageous rates.
If ffifty-year three per cent. bonds were
to be authorized, they could be bought
for the sinking fund if cheaper than 9TH
ers. Why not have the whole market
of our Indebtedness ,700,000,0 ,000-in
which to be buyers at best rates, instead
of tying ourselves down ineXorably to the
redemption of our latest loan of S700,000,-
600? Our surplus revenues ought to be
invested to the Nations best advantage.
Who will say that our best policy is to
cut ourselves off from this, in order TO
have the privilege of redeeming the loan
which is to be the lightest burden of all
we are to bear? And yet We pursue that
policy if we issue a loan now at three per
cent. and make it the first to mature.
