Gen. Rosecrans, Democratic Con-
gresham fiom California, may have
his faults, as we think it highly proba-
BILE he has, but an excess of modesty ia
not one of them. His letter to his con-
s%tituents is a curiosity in political liter
ature. In 1t he recites his achievements
in Congress, and the places ON commit
tees with which his party has honored
him, and then says: "Not to renomi-
nate and re-elect me would be to do
these noble friends and the Democratic
party a grievous wrong, an i~rreparable
damage" IL certainly would be a pity
to remit to private life a gentleman
who has so amiable an opinion of his
own abilities; and when his constitu-
ency realize that the future of the
Democratic party is tied up with Gen.
Rosecrans' nomination. they will GER
tainly make haste to crafty him.

How To Cook RIcE.-Rice Is becom.
Ing q much more popular article of food
than heretofore. 1t 10 frequently sub
stituted for potatoes at the chief meal
of the day, being more nutritious and
much more readily digested. At lis
present cost, 1t il relatively cheaper
than potatoes, oatmeal or grain-grits of
any kind. In preparing it, only just
enough cold water should be poured on
to prevent the rice from burning at the
bottom Of the pot, which should have q
close-ftting cover, and with q moderate
Dire the rice is steamed rather than
boiled until 1t is nearly done; then the
cover Is taken OIL, the surplus steam and
moisture allowed to escape, and the
rice turns ont q mass of snow-whlte
kernels, each separate from the other,
aud az much superior to the usual
soggy mass as q fine mealy potato is
superior to the water-soaked article.

A Job Of the Bosses.

We might add right here that at the
state convention there is but little for
people to do except to register their
names, pay their bills AND confirm The
the ticket for governor, lieut.. ex-governor
and treasurer made by the bosses long
ago, with possibly the exception of the
treasurer. But the bosses claim that 80
long as they, give the state good officers
the people should not find faplt with
tneif uctIou nor raisc u questIon. 1Ihey
forget that the Declaration of 1ndepen-
dence at its very outset says that tall
men are born free and equal and are
endowed with certain inalienable rights,
among which are life, liberty and the
pursuits of happiness"
Now in their manipulations of the
nomination of state, district, or county
officers, and their control of primary
meetings through their satellites, are
they not depriving tho people of their
rights by forestalling their action in
this matter2 But with equal truth, the
people are to blame for all this, and so
long as they will quietly submit, 80
long will DO found those who are
willing to take the responsibility into
their own hands, and for their share OF
the loaves and fishes do all the dirty
work that may be asked of them. 1t
is no secret now, nor has it been among
the masses even, for several months
who is to be the next governor.
Why is this SO? Simply because il is
a part of a bargain made long ago by
certain men VINO we may say control
me people OF this state as completely
\ DIRK City, so far as the elections are
concerned. Whether the controllers
of our state politics are good or bad
men, their power is the same, and the
only remedy, whenever we come to
the conclusion that We need a remedy
lies with the people. -[Poulmey Jour.

~A worse enemy to the Republic

fastened itself upon the party orgsniza-

upon the fear of loss of the fruits of

might entail. But II bossism can only
be overthrown at the expense of Demo-

The envy of our gorgeous young men
may we'll be excited by the beatifc
condition of O cadet now at West Point,
who Is the possessor of no less than one
hundred and twenty pairs of white
trousers. OF course he does not wesr
them all at once-nothing less than a
centipede could do that but he can put
on as many as any other man, and II
must be a great satisfaction TO him to
know that he can appear In a fresh pair
every six minutes during the entire day
IL he sees fit to do SO. 1t is this sublime
consciousness, no doubt, that makes
him blest above his fellows, rather than
the abstract and wholly material fact of
the possession of so many pairs of mex.
pressibles. Indeed, the influence of
trousers upon the mind of man Is a sub
ject whose calculation Is still reserved
for the gigantic intellect of some sarto-
rial Newton.

A QUEER SMAsBUP.-The Burlington
Free Press gives the following account
of O wreck on the railroad In that city
last Friday afternoon: About $3.50
p. m. Yesterday there occurred, Just
north of tie drawbridge 10 this city one
of the most peculiar and extensive
smashups that we have been called upon
TO chronicle for some time. Seven freight
cars lay piled on top ofeach other in the
widest confusion, Invested of their
trucks, and forming q barrier which
extended across the entire road bed at
that place and down the bank the other
side. The trucks were beaped up to-
! gether on the rails, tho under ones
being sunken nearly out of sight in the
loose earth. The accident, It seems,
happened IN this way: About n hum
dred and fifty empty freight cars were
being removed from the main and La.
noble tracks by two Vermont Central
engines. There is a heavy down grade
from the Lamoille track to the draw.
bridge, and a corresponding up grade
on the other side. A number of these
empty freight cars-about 40, the for.
ward n of which was an open fat car
had Just crossed the drawbridge,
when, the locomotives Stacking speed
the immense pressure of the cars in the
rear forced the fiat car sidewise from
the rails, when the others heaped them
selves upon it and upon each other will
terrible force. Conductor Freeman
Saltus was upon one of the forward boz
cars at the time of the accident, ant
leaped of in the very midst of the crash
ing debris, with cars and trucks pilinl
themselves up on every side of him
The wonder is that he escaped with hi
life. Although bruised too severely t
that his injuries arc not dangerous
The switch-house, which stood nea
the track, was swept away bodily, an,
converted into a mass of kindlings be
meath one of the freight cars"
