Ii is a question that is asked 500 tunes
a year in every household in tue
country. There is nothiag gives the
average housekeeper so much reai
bother of brain and more rasping OF the
nervous system than this matter OF eat
ing and drinking, especially if she be
limited either in purse or in capacity.
1t is no small matter to study the mar
kets, sec what ;s i'll season, and adapt
the various articles to the capricious and
various appetites. For this Is the season
of the year when most appetites are ca
priciods and various, and it is not an
easy matter to suit either the individual
or the general palate. Before giving the
bill of fare for simple family dinner, it
is perhaps we'll to say that fruit is al
ways assumed to be served when 1t ID IN
season. 1t IS served first at breakfast,
follows the more solid dessert at d1nper,
and is used in place of preserved or
canned flnit for tea or luncheon. So
fruit is taken for granted, and there is
certainly now an abundant choice OF
variety. With which divertissenaent
let us take up Mrs. Lincoln's bill OF

SHOULD a Convention be called to

SHOULD a Convention be called to rid
our State of the present Constitution,
which was not framed by the real citi-
zens of the State, but was adopted by
them under duress, the following pro-
visions of the Constitution of Illinois
will be worthy of consideration:
"No railroad corporation shall consol-
idate its stock, property or franchises
with any other railroad corporation own
ing a parallel, or competing line. A
majority of the directors of any railroad
corporation, now incorporated, or here
after to be incorporated, by the laws of
the State, shall be citizens and residents
of this State.
Railways heretofore constructed, or
that may hereafter be constructed, in
this State, are hereby declared public
highways, and shall be free to all per-
sons for the transportation Of their per-
sons and property thereon, under such
regulations as may be prescribed by
law. And the General Assembly shall
from time to time pass laws establishing
reasonable maximum rates of charges
for the transportation of passengers and
freight on the different roads in the
State"
That corporations which have devoted
their property to public use, are pub
lie highwaysS and must submit to be
controlled by the Legislative authority,
is well settled principle binding upon
corporations, whether written in the
organic law or not. If they are private
enterprises they have no right to exer-
else the States right of eminent domain,
taking the property of private individ-
uals on the ground of public use. If
they are public enterprises, they are
subject to the control of the State.

Press Comments on the National
Colored Convention Resolutions.

Montgomery Gala Advertiser: Many
of the most sensible negroes in the coun-
try opposed the holding of the Fred
Douglass Convention. Whatever their
reasons were the result demonstrates that
they were wise in the opposition they
expressed, for the speeches made, the
resolutions discussed and the address
adopted are calculated to do the negroes
as q race an immense amount of harm /;
but they did in effect srraign the whole
body of white people of this country.
On that issue they will as surely be
driven to the wall as the Indian has been
driven before the irresistible march of
the white men. II now they are taken
at their word, and the race question is
brought to the front, North and South
alike will be brought against them,
Fred Douglass and the negroes can no
more work on terms of equality with
white people in the North than thev
can in the South.
Macon (Ga-) Telegraph: The white
men of the South are not likely to be
kindly influenced towards race which
retards their progress, which threatens
their civilization, which menaces their
social peace and which has declared to
the world that the fathers of these white
men were traitors TO their country be
cause they were forced to take up arms
to defend their birthrights We can
gather from it nothing that tends to
wards the solution of the negro problem,
which towers a mountain of darkness
against the horizon of the future. The
one stubborn fact that stands vet in bold
outline.
