iHE DISGUSTING MODE OF ITS PREPARATION FOR
MARKET.
The Offering for sale OF blown meat In the mar
kets this winter Is not confined to this city, but
has been pretty extensively practicei thro ughout
the country by spectators In dressed meats. eSpe-
cialiy mutton and veal The purpose of the
"blowing" butchers is To deceive the purchaser OF
these meats by making it look plump and round.
The Cincinnati Enquirer OF the 10th inst. de-
the butchers in that city:-''Ihe LIMB being killed.
an fnciSiOn Is made in the lett hind leg, and the
butcher, placing his mouth thereto blows with all
his might The Lamb is blown out like balloon.
The wind thus forced into the carcass is diStrib-
uted all through Ii by the butcher, who vigorously
kneadS il with his hands for that purpose. 1t too
often Is the case that the very one who thus
blows into a lamb is a man who is soaked with
vile whisky, and may be half deyOured by the
rayageS OF disease. Therefore, what must be the
OF such filthy wretch Whit may not result
from eating meat thus contaminated? After the
animal has been blown the skin is removed The
object OF thus blowing n animal Is TO make the
meat LOOK nice and plump BY this means IL is
rendered exceedingly inviting 10 the unintiated.
The wind blown into the animal finds its Way
clear to the bones. and puffS cut the meat most
beautifully, to look at Persons familiar with the
Trick can readily detect meat thus dOctOred; but
there are thousands OF purchasers who never
heard OF such a thing, and consequently know
nothing OF 1t; therefore they cannot be expected
TO recognize blown meat when they see it, Veal Is
also treated IN the same way"
The meat Inspectors should be on the watch for
this poisoned meat There is a law against the
sale or Offering for sale of Such poisonous stuff,
and the man who would be guilty OF the deviliSh
feat OF blowing mutton, veal or any other kind OF
dealt with, as meat so prepared Is not lit for vul-
tUre TO eat.

The committee on the District of Columbia to
which were referred Senate bills 100 and 446
and an amendment to the latter. the first being
"a bill to provide for the completion of the dam

That Washington and Georgetown are sup
piled with water from the Potomac above the
treat Falls, by means of the Washington Ague-
duct, which Is circular in section and nine feet
In diameter, and extending from Great Falls
TO ,Ss2 feet to the distributing reservoir near
Georgetown. The water is conducted from the
gate-hOuse at the distributing reservoir to
Washington and Georgetown by three mains,
respectively r. 30 and So inches in diameter
The average daily delivery from the reservoir
has been as follows:

Original Estimate.
Total cost Of reservoir

Total cost of reservoir 466, 523 IS
II the dam is completed and the conduit ex-
tended to either of the points above suggested,
we may confidently expect daily delivery of
EIGHTY MILLION GALLONS OF WATER
in the new reservoir at level of 40 feet
The adoption of the plan suggested by Colonel
Casey will secure the additional daily delivery
of q, 600 600 gallons, which will double the pre-
sent supply, but this is the maximum to be ex-
pected from the main suggested, and at level
of 115 feet above datum. While the plan sug-
gested by General Meigs. and recommended by
Major Twning. will! deliver a quantity equal to
OF the maximum above given and at much
higher levels.
The cost of the respective plans will be as fol-

Now came another trying time. The boat
scenes OF, the steamer Arctic had made deep
Impression upon Herndons mind: they now
crowded into remembrance. Who of this crew
should be selected to man his boats? Would
they desert him when they got off from the
ship! There were some who he knew would
not.
1t was not an occasion when the word might
be passed for volunteers; for it was the post of
safety. not OF danger, but nevertheless of great
trust, that was to be filed The captain wanted
trusty men, that he knew well from long asso-
citation, and the crew Of such vessels is not very
permanent as to its personnel. Therefore he
felt at loss, for there was still man wanted
for Blacks, the boatswain's, boat. sailor,
and modestly offered to CO. He had not, it may
be supposed, been long in the ship, for Herndon
evidently did not know him well, and replied,
in his mild and gentle way, Il wonder il can
trust you?" The sailor instinctively understood
this call for q shibboleth, and simply said, 81
have hands that are hard to row, and heart
that's soft to feel" This was enough; he went
and was true. Not boat deserted that ship
All the women and children were first sent to
the brig, and every one arrived there in safety.
Each boat made two loads to the brig carrying
all one hundred persons.
By this time night was setting In. The brig
had drifted to leeward several miles away from
the steamer, and was SO crippled that she could
not beat up to her again. Blacks (the boat

and with little or no food. The boat itself had
been badly stove while alongside with the last
load Of passengers. She was SO much knocked
to pieces as to be really unserviceabe; nor could
she have held another person. Still those brave
seamen, true to the trust reposed In them by
their captain, did not hesitate to leave the brig
in her again and pull back through thndark for
mites across an angry sea, that they might Join
him in his sinking ship and take their chances

He does not revise the estimates of 1879 for
the iron pipe but says. as prices have advanced
since that time, he refers to Col. Casey for accu-
rate information as to the cost of iron at this
time
Col. Casey and Major Twining agree that there
will be no considerable difference in the cost of
boiler-iron and cast-rOn pipes and that the cast
iron is better and much more durable They
therefore recommend the use of cast-iron mains,

Heavy Responsibility.

Several years ago the express CON-
pany refused to carry the currency be-
tween Washington and New York on
terms which Secretary Bristow deemed
reasonable. The company, thinking that
he could not get any other reliable means
OF transporting the currency, were OBJ
stinate. He, therefore, took away the
contract and for long time provided
other means which they could never dis
cover. They finally came 10 his terms
The secretary selected for the trust
Thomas Cavanaugh, a special agent of
thetreasury, tall, broad-shouldered, deep
chested, who used to set out from the
office of the secretary of the treasury
after night with yalise stuffed with
government currency. One night he had
in his bag S75O, 900 IN greenbacks. The
secretary had absolutely no protection
beyond Cavanaugh's individual honor.
If lie had run away with an odd million
he could not have been prosecuted for
more than a breach Of trust. II 1t was
even suspected that he was carrying such
sums, he would have been attacked. ii
he had been robbed-nothing but his
death in defending his trust could have
saved him from being classeG as guilty
participant. Toward the last Cava-
naugh became very nervous. A close
coupe took him down the avenue. In
the sleepipgc car he slept but little. Some
one always seemed reaching across his
gashed throat for the money placed in
his trust. 1t was great relief when the
dreadful responsibility came to an end
and he was able to go back to his orii-
nary duties

Georae {, Prentice's Advice.

To young man away from home,
frieudless and forlorn in great city, the
hours of peril are those between sunset
and bedtime; for the moon aud stars see
more evil III a single hour than the sun
in Its whole days circuit. The poets
visions of evening are all composed OF
tender and soothing images. 1t brings
the wanderer to his home, the child to
his mothers arms, the OK TO his stall and
the weary labOrer to his rest. But TO
the gentle hearted youth who is thrown
upon the rocks of the pitlless city, and
stands homeless amid thousand homes,
the approaching evening brings with 1t
an aching sense of loneliness and desOla-
tion which comes down upon the spirit like
darkness upon the earth. In this mood
his best impulse becomes snare to him;
aud he is led astray because he Is social,
affectionate, sympathetic and warm
hearted. If there he young man thus
circumstanced within the sound of my
voice, let me say to him that books are
the friends Of the friendless, and libra
ry Is home Of the homeless. A taste for
reading will alway carry you to converse
with men who will Influence you with their
wisdom and charm You by their wit, who
will soothe You when fretted, refresh you
when weary, counsel you when perplexed,
and dsympatbize you at all times. Evil spir-
its in the middle ages were exercised and
driven away by bell, book and candle,
and you want but two of these agents,
the book and the candle.
