Washed and UnWaShed Butter.

The difference between washed and
unwasned butter is analogous to the
difference between clarified and un-
clarified sugar. The former consists
of pure saccharine matter, while the
latter, though less sweet, has Il flavor
in addition to that of the pure sugar.
When unwashed there is always little
buttermilk adhering to the butter that
gives it peculiar flavor in addition to
that of pure butter, which many people
like when it is new. Washing removes
all of this foreign matter and leaves the
taste OF the butter pure and simple
Those who prefer the taste of the but
ter to that of the former ingredients
mixed with it, like the washed butter
best. The flavor of butter consists of
fItty matters which do not combine
with water at all, and therefore cannot
be washed away by it. The effect of
washing upon the keeping qualities of
the butter depends on the purity of the
water used. If the water contains no
foreign matter that VII bffect the butter
1t keeps the better for having the but
termilk washed out instead of worked
out Evidently the grain of the butter
WILDE more perfectly preserved if the
buttermilk be removed by careful wash
ing. The grain Is such an important
factor IN the makeup OF fine butter,
that it is necessary we should de very

ARABI PASHA'S DEFIANCE.

Arab Pasha wrote the following let.
ter to Gladstone 4 few DAYS before the
bombardment, but Gladstone did not
receive ii until after the bombardment:
"The Koran commands us 20 resist

England may rest assured that the first
gun. shot fired in Egypt Will absolve the
Egyptians from all treaties. The con
troll will cease. Property of Europeans
Will be contiscated, the canals DESTROYED
and Fehad be preached in Syria, Ara
bla and India. The first blow with
which England strikes Egypt will cause
blood to flow through Asia and Africa,
the responsibility OF which will be on
the head of England. Egypt is still
ready to be friends with England and
keep herroad to India, but she must
keep within the limits of her jurisdict-

In these times of tlmld time serving

freshing to meet with public man who
has independence" enough to stand
up for his convictions of right, and
Justice, even at the risk of defeat, or a
difference with his party leaders. The
following has the genuine ring of the
true republican metal, and reminds US
ofthe ''independent republicanism," of
the early leaders of the party. 1t is
pretty evident that Mr.. Browne has no
''ring" in his nose. In accepting the
republican nomination for reelection
to Congress, General Thomas NJ.
Browne, of Indiana, says: In few
instances | have differed from the ma
jority of the Representatives of my
party, but l did SO from a conviction
of duty. Believing the Anti-Chinese
bill was an attack on the most sacred
rights of human nature, l opposed it.
When the race prejudice, which is the
spawn of ignorance and hate, gives
place, as it must, to an enlightened re-
publican civilization, my vote will stand
approved That the really navlgable
waterways of the United States-those
great arteries of nations commerce

atoms are sought for streams purely
local-many of them without commerce
and almost without water-I will refuse
