The Revenue Bond Scrip Swim
die.

The decree Of the Circuit Court of the
United States published to-day affrms the
7aIidity of what is known as the Revenue
Bond Scrip, which, to tho amount of
81 800 0U0 was issued under the Act of
Assem- bIy Of March 2, 1872, in exchange
for 81 OOO 900 of bonds Of the Blue Ridge
Railroad, guaranteed by the State under
the Act OF September Is, 1868. The ex-
change WIS affected, and the bonds were
surrendered and ouncelled. The release
of the Blue Ridge Rairoad bonds
from hyputhecation, 80 as to effeot the
exchange. was accomplished mainly by
E b Wesley, of Now York, who then
received $l,005 600 Of tho Revenue Bond
Scrip as collateral security. Mr.. Amos D.
Williams surrendered to the enmpsny
SALT .00O OF bones and received $l65 900
of the scrip. Proceedings wore taken in
the State Supreme Court which brought
up the whole question of the constitution
ality of the Act Of March, 1879. The
Supreme Court decided that the Revenue
Bond Scrip, being certificates of indebted-
ness payable TO bearer, issued by the State
in its sovereign capacity, with the faith OF
the State pledged for their ultimate 70
denptioo, aud intended to circulate as
money, are bills of credit, which, By the
Constitution of the United States, a State
is Inhibited from issuing, and are, there
fore, null and void The litigation oon-
tinued, and the Supreme Court of the
United States rendered decision against
the holders of the scrip. The decision,
however, did not touch the merits of the
case and fresh proceedings were begun in
the United States Circuit Court with tho
result now announced.
The CONCLUSIONS of law reached by the
Circuit Court will be reviewed by the
Supreme Court Of the United States, 90 VIC
take it for granted that the State officers
will appeal from the Circuit Courts decision.
There is 90 improperly, therefore, 10
stating the grounds Of opposition to what
is asked for by the holders Of the scrip.
Acknowledgement Youmans and Mr.. Mem.
minger, who represent tho defendants,
contended that the suit was really against
the State Of South Carolina, as the State is
incontestably the principal party affected.
This would take from the Uuited States
Court all further jurisdiction, as a State
cannot be sued by individuals without the
States consent. The next point was se to

MY CHILD's MISSION.

"Msmmal do see this pretty rose,
With all its ugly thorna about;
think III sit me down aud try
To pull tho prickly things all out"
And then her skill right eagerly
The little lsborer csssy'd,
CIapping her haud in childish glee,
At every clearance that che made.
But presently, with fearful eyes, :.
Back with her prise my darling came
"TIere ia one thorn 30 6x'd, muuua,
Do what will, remains the same"
/ took the mourner on my knee,
And pressed her closely to my heart;
Then wiped her tiny tears away,
Aud tried o lesson to impart:
told her life Yves like that rose,
As bright the beauties it revealed;
But, lurking underneath is sweets,
Sharp poiuted thorns oft lie concealed;
urged her, az she journeyd on,
Still to pursue her sweet employ,
Reduce the mass of human woe,
Aud seek to leighten human joy:
But as she generously strove
The balm Of comfort to supply,
To pour the oil Of gludness in,
Aud bid the moui uers tear be dry,
She oft would meet with hidden woe,
Which, like that fixed and stubborn
thorn,
Deies tho reach of human power,
Repcls its puny touch with scorn.
For there arc erefs too deep for words,
Which mock tho balm which mortus try,
And, reuohing to the iumost core,
They only leuvo us when we din.
Full many heart grave cnshrines-
Keeps g.een and fresh with secret tears,
An armaranthine cypress waves
Where sleeps the love of early years!
Aud then told of Him who left
A heavenly throne to suffer here,
Aud, by an ignominious deuth,
Purchased crown for us to wear;
Whose rover the deepest wounds con heal
The heaviest sorrow can assuage,
Give joy for mourning, and illume
Our path from infancy to age.
show'd her how her mornings task
Was Kindred to her Saviour's love;
Aud pray'd her thus to spend her life,
That she might reign with him above.
NJ little one looked up and smiled,
A tear-drop eIisteued 10 her eye:
"Oh! what blessed work, msmma-
should 80 like ut ouce to try!
"And when find thorn too firm
For mo to move I'll not despair,
But striaght TO Jesus will go,
And leave it safely in His care" &c.

What Came Of Having the Roof
Tarred.

A Boston man, go says paper published
;n the. city, had the fiat roof of the L. of
his house tarred the other day, and when
six or seven oats got on it the following
night, they would yell and arch their backs
and try to get pull on all four feet at
once, but couldn't lift themselves free and
their sghing was frightful and the people
in the ncghborhood begin to chunk thiogs
at them ana the owner of the house forgot
about the tar, aud went barefoot aud 10 his
robe de mutt upon tho roof to chase them
of, and soon found that he couldn't stir
and began to whoop and swear, and
policeman got ladder and climbed on the
roof aud when he came up over the edge
on his hands end knees, he had to remain
in that posture and he used very emphatic
language. Meantime tho Lootjacks were
falling Ia shower about and around thom
and the man's mother-ia,aw, in looking
out an upper window that overlooked the l.
roof to ask if they we're not ashamed to be
out on roof playing cat at that time of
night, knocked her wig off and it fell iuto
the tar, and she rushed down fight and
wont out on the roof to get it and couldn't
let 90 of it anl Of course her position and
bald head made dead give away, as ID was
quito light, when some one finally came
with boards for them to be got on to whom
they were eut loose from tho tar, and the
old lady did not feel bit worse than tho
policeman who had to walk through the
streets with the knees of his trousers 1T
cut and left stuck on the roof aud grcat
hunk Of tar stuck to each hand, aud got
reprimand when he reached the station.
And the house owner himself blistered his
feet trying to melt the tar Off of them by
holding them up to hot stove, and when
the oats we're out loose from the roof and
put on the ground they triod to guaw the
tar from their claws aud got their paws
stuck 10 their mouths and rolled about and
yawled and carried on so that folks thought
they were mad and killed them. And the
househoIder's mother-in law hasn't got over
jawipg him about that tar roof yet.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.

Light, brown biscuit for tea are made of
Graham -four, one pint of sour cream, one
teaspoonful of bicarbonate of soda; roll
them out as for any biscuit, and bake in a
moderate oven.
To fry smelts Wash and scrape them
cut off the fins, dip them in beaten egg and
cracker crumbs, or simply roll them in
-four, fry in boiling fat garnish with fried
parsley or with fresh watercress.
A nourishing and pleasant drink for a
sick person is made of parched rice. Brown
the rice the same as you do coffee; then
pour boiling water with little salt in it
over the rice. Let it boil until it is tender
then add sugar or cream to it. 1t may be
strained or not, according to taste.
A good way to prepare apples when they
are almost tasteless, is to pare them, cut
them in quarters, and steam until they are
tender then put them in an earthen dish
and pour over the sauce a little weak vine
gar, Just enough to favor them a trife. In
this put some unground allspice and little
sugar.
Milk porridge can be varied so that an
invalid will not tire of it soon. Put a
dozen raisins in about two cups of milk,
boil for five minutes they will flavor it
agreeably, though they are not intended to
be eaten. A little nutmeg can be added,
or the white of an egg beaten light might
be stirred in just after the milk is taken
from the stove.
The following is an excellent recipe for
a cheap fruit cake One egg, one cup of
sugar, one and half cups of flour, half a
cup Of butter, two thirds of cup of cur
rants, one cup of raisins, half teaspoonful
of baking powder, three tablespoonfuls of
| sour cream or milk, one teaspoonful each
of cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg; in place
of baking powder and sour milk, you may
use, if you chose, two tablespoonfuls of
yeast in this case it will need to stand in
the tin to rise for an hour.
An economical way to prepare beefsteak
for breakfast is this : Buy your sirloin
steak for next days dinner, then cut OH
the ends which when cooked on a gridiron
shriyel up and are the same as wasted.
| Chop them very fine, season with pepper
and salt, and very little sifted sage, il
YOU like that favor. After they are
chopped form them in fiat cakes, and few
minutes before breakfast melt lump OF
butter in saucepan and fry till brown.
By adding little more butter and sour
milk and flour you can make nice gravy
to pour over the meat.
Lemon sherbet, which is 80 refreshing
to the fever patient, and which is not de-
spised by the we'll man, is made in the
proportion of two pounds of white sugar
and six lemons, to two quarts of water
| Cut the lemons in two parts squeeze
every drop OF the juice ont /; stir the sugar
water and lemon juice together, and strain
through wire sieve. Freeze just as yor
do ice cream. Orange sherbet can be made
in the some way by substituting oranges
for lemons, and some people think it very
agreeable if half lemons and half oranges
are used. This is pleasant ice to serve
at the close of weighty dinner.
