Mesrs. George r Hee6er e. Co.:
GENTLEMEN have had occasion to
make analyses of your Self-Raising Flour
and Buckwheat and Griddle Cake Flour on
number of occasions, not only for you,
but for others who wished to know what
were the materials contained in these srti-
cles, and have for many years used them in
my own family, and can testify most en-
phatically that they are agreeable, nutri-
tious and perfectly wholesome. The ingre-
dients employed in their preparation are
not only entirely harmless as so used, but
have been recommended by the highest
authorities IN medical and physiological
science, SIS the most wholesome, and in all
respects desirable preparations now known
for the purpose of raising bread, cakes, etc.
Yours, ETC., HENRY MORTON.

that Mitchell is determined to lead.-Adv.

The Boston Post notes the fact that in
recent years there has been a decrease in
the arrivals fcura Ireland to this country,
both absolutely and as compared with
the immigration from other foreign coun-
tries. In 1851 the Irish immigration
reached its highest point, 221 1858 per-
sons. Thirty years later, IN 1881, when
the greatest number of immigrants that
ever came to this country in a single
year arrived, the number from Ireland
was only 70, 900, decrease of two thirds,
and in 1877, an ordinary year, the mum
her was only 10, 791. During the same
thirty years immigration from England
has steadily increased until now it is
5000 larger than the Irish, whereas in
1851 the latter was $50 times as great as
tine former. Thirty years ago Irish i'm
migration surpassed that from all cOun-
tries combined; last year it was less than
one-tenth of the whole, being smaller
even than that from Norway and
Sweden.

The Medical Times and Gazette gives
the following relating to the consump-
ton of opium in China, taken from the
report of the Inspector General of
Customs; "Only two-thirds of l per
cent. or 1000, 900 of the population of
800, 900, 600 choose to consume opium.
The annual importation of the drug into
the country amounts to 100, 900 chests
of 1873 pounds each, about ne-third of
which is, however, lost in its conversion
into prepared opium. The home produc-
ton amounts to as much as that i'm
ported, and together with it costs about
eos, Oe0, 900 annually. Five drachms is
the calculated average amount used by
each smoker daily, and sd. TO lid. its
cost. 1t is claimed that the drug pre-
vents the waste of tissue, and is to the
poor Chinaman what tea is to the same
class in the United Kingdom; while a
protest is made against its being
bracketed with alcohol in one sweeping
condemnation, as the latter is only a
temporary stimulant, while opium may,
in time of famine, take the place of
food"

The course of the Southern Demo
Gratis in voting to pass the river and
harbor bill over the Presidents veto,
can readily be accounted for. The
items for the South were all honest, and
when her Representatives in Congress
saw that she was in danger of losing
what were her just dues, they felt that
their duty demanded that she should not
suffer. The stealage items of this bill
were placed therein by Republican rep
resentatives of the Northern people for
political purposes. This the South
could not help, and her representatives
did not feel like depr1ving her of what
was honestly for her benefit so as to
force the Northern Republican members
to be virtuous. That was asking little
too much fortitude, especially as expert
ence has proven that it would be like
throwing pearls before swine.

The defeat of young Scudder, of Mis-
sissippi, by young Cook, of Rhode
Island-albeit that the former was the
older and larger of the two-at the re-
cent prize fight between them at West
Point, can not be taken as evidence that
Southern manhood is deteriorating.
Cook had been at the Point a year and
was therefore hardened by its training
and discipline, while scudder was a
new cadet fresh from home. Notwith-
standing this, however, we believe that
if young Scudder had have pitched into
his opponent in rough and tumble style,
instead of according to the prize ring
rules, Ia Marquis of Queensbury, OF
which he knew nothing, he would have
sent his Rhode Island antagonist to the
hospital instead of gong there himself.

Crop prospects in the South are re-
ported from all quarters as unprece-
dentedly fine. A Washington dispatch
states that last week $50, 1000 bushels of
wheat were received at Baltimore from
the South, and that Georgia and South
Carolina, which have always heretofore
bought wheat, shipped last week 100, 900
bushels to grain dealers in that city and
New York. The cotton crop is also re-
ported excellent, and with the prospect
Of the cotton production abroad being
reduced by war, it is believed that the
financial prospects of the South are unu-
sually good.

Iudge Henry K. McCay.

The NEWS does not as rule take sides
in personal controversies, though on
matters of public concern to Georgia
its views are always expressed in no I'M
cert ain tone. 1t has, therefore, taken no
part in the contest between Col. Atkins
and Judge McCay, for the ermine Of the
newly created United States Northern
Judicial district of Georgia, but now
that it has been decided by the President
and confirmed by the Senate, we con-
graduate our fellow-citizens upon the
appointment made AS the incumbent
had to be Republican, according to the
restrictive policy o. the party in power.
there could have been no better selec-
ton for the Office than Judge McCay,
who for many years before the civil war
was an honored citizen of Georgia, iden-
tilted with her institutions and her well
fare, and who did his duty faithfully to
her, in and out of active service, during
the war
Whatever his opinions upon the ne
cessity for the war, he adopted decided
line of policy at its close. as the best for
the State to pursue to retrieve promptly
the loss she had suffered from fire and
sword; and that was to accept the posi-
tons to be offered by the cOnquering
party. AT the time 1860, be it remem-
bered, Georgia was in political chaos
with no defined organization or existing
affiliations; while the cayOtes of the
Radical wing of the victorious army
were prowling among the ruins
of secession to plumber the living
prisoners and to fatten upon the
remains of the slain. Our political flu
ture was shrouded in darkness. Under
these disheartening surroundings Judge
McCay saw but one avenue of escape,
and he argued for it openly, and. we be
lieve, with no selfish ends, but on the
broad basis of benefit to the State. His
views were not so sound as he thought
them to be, when Georgia, like young
giant, reused from her stupor and re-
gained her natural vigOr and clearness
of intellect, but the Judge was honest,
thouOh not politically sagacious, and
has pursued the tenor of his Republican
way with consistency and honor, retain
ing the respect and good will of his old
friends and associates. Such Republi-
can appointments as that of Judge Nc
Cay would, if usual, give good cause for
uneasiness and vigilance in the ranks of
the Democracy, but they are ''few and
far between" and when by chance
one is made, we have reason to rejoice
that decency and dignity fill seat
that might otherwise be filed by car
petbagger or a scalawag.

A Chicago house which deals largely In
dressed beef has opened branch in Balti7
more, and the first consignment OF thirty
eight carcasses Of beeyes has been received
there in a refrigerato or car from the West.
In their warehouse the firm have built re-
frigerator room 81 bv "a feet, kept at a tenn
perature of 80 to 30 degrees, by seventy
tons of ice, in compartments walled on
from the room, which latter is always dry.
Here the carcasses are suspended on hooks,
and are run out, when sold, by sliding them
along the iron beams to scales for weignin g,
whence they are put into the wagons OF the
dealers. The meat showed that it had been
carefully slaughtered, and was in prime
condition after the trip Of three days from
Chicago in the icy temperature kept up in
the refrigerator car.
