The Value Of Boiled Water.

In an article in Knoriedge on scientific
cookery Mr. W. Mattieu Williams called
attention to the danger of using drinking
water full Of organic impurities. Such water,
he says, supplies nutriment to those micro
sc1pic denominations. the micTOcoeci, bdciUi,
Jacte5ia. ETC., which are now shown TO be
connected with blood poisoning possibly do
tn whole of the poisoning business. These
little pests are harmless, and probably nu-
tritious. when cooked, but in their raw and
wriggIing state are horribly prolific in the
blood Of people who are in certain states of
what is called ''receptiyity." They (the
bacteria. etc.) appear TO be poisoned or
somehow killed off BY the digestive secre-
ti1us OF the blood Of some people, and nour-
ished luxuriantly in the blood of others.
As nobody can be quite sure to which class
he belongs, or may presently belong, or
whether the water supplied to his house
hold is free from blood poisoning organisms,
cooked water is safer beverage than raw
water.
'.Rzfecting on this subject" says Mr.
Williams, IL have been struck with curious
fact that has hitherto escaped notice. viz,
that in the country which over all others
combines very large population with very
small allowance of cleanliness, the ordinary
drink Of the people is boiled water favored
BY an infusion of leaves. These people, the
Chinese, seem, in fact. to have been the in
veutors of boiled water beverages. Judging
from travellers accounts Of the state of the
rivers. rIvulets, and general drainage and ir-
rigation arrangements Of China, its popula-
ton could scarcely have reached its present
density If Cinnamon were drinkers of raw
instead of cooked water.

In pursuing this inquiry he has made
some very startling discoveries, and
among Others, that the people in this
country have no conception Of the
vsstness OF the monopolies in Eng
land, and as an instance ne mentions
the iron district OF Cleveiand. Con-
sidering that England easily competes
In iron production with nations where !
labor is much cheaper this monopoly |
cannot be very grasping, for by slight
incrsase in price they could. impose q
burdensome tax upon industry unless
importations prevented. Herein lies
q great advantage in flee commercial
policy; that industrial monopolies are
so easily shorne of their power of
working mischief. The iron ''monop-
oily" Of the Cleveland district is
harmless one because it cannot act up
on prices. Il Mr.. Porter were only
sincere he could have easily found
worse monopolies in this country, and
which have been created and fostered
by the protection tariff. The copper
mines or Lake Superior form such a
monopoly, but are so poverty stricken
that they are enabled to sell copper to
foreigners at lower price than to do
mestic consumers. The mining Of
nickel is controlled by one man, who
works or closes his mines as best suits
his own interests. There is but one
mandatory of the important salt of
bichromate of potash, which is so ex-
tensively used as a mordant in the
dyeing of cotton and woolen fabrics,
and the list might be greatly extended.
In industries that are SO situated al
most the full pound of flesh may be
taken, and as a rule there is very little
margin between the domestic selling
price and the price of the imported
commodity. Thus, in the chemical
just named, an excellent authority
states that it may be manufactured for
ten cents per pound, but the selling
price has averaged from fourteen to
sixteen cents per pound. The foreign
article could be imported for ten or
thirteen cents per pound, but the duty
of four cents per pound prevents large
quantities from being brought in, al
though nearly one-fourth of the total
consumption of the country is impor-
ted, as the domestic production is not
sufficient to supply the demand. AS
the deposit of chrome ore is limited
and is controlled chiefly by this one
great extension of the industry, so
that all who use materials dyed with
this salt are placed under tribute to
this one establishment. In all these
instances where the market is practi-
cally controlled by few firms or in
dividaals combination is rendered
easier and sudden fluctuations in price
made more frequent. 1t is such mo-
nopolies that do injury to the indus
try of the country. The new tariff
dealt kindly with these favored few
The duty on copper is reduced from
five cents to four cents per pound, on
nickel from twenty cents to fifteen
cents per pound and bichromate Of
potash from four to three cents per
pound, at which rate it stood previous
to 1874 when for some unexplained
cause it was increasd to four cents.
The margin for speculation is thus
lessened, but the monopoly features
are retained. New York Herald.

To the Public .

The Grand Jury, in their General Pre-
sentiments at the last time of Cobb Superior
Court, thought proper to present the county
academy in Marietta as nuisance, and re-
commended that it be sold and the proceeds
be put into the county treasury.
The undersigned, Trustees Of said institu-
ton, would most respectfully represent to
the public, that instead of it being nui-
sance, said institution has, for the last
thirty or forty years, been public benefit,
constantly occupied and used, from year 10
year as a school house, by good and efficient
teachers, and for the last six years bya most
| estimable young lady, well qualified tC
teach, as is evidenced from the continued
large number of pupils constantly in at
tendance. For the use of the house the
teachers have been required to keep the
same in good repair and good fence around
the lot, which requirement has been fulfill
ed all the time. The building is securely
locked and bolted at night and during
vacations.
We would further State that the title t.
said lot only rest in the county so long as i
is used for school purposes. 1t was granted
to the county, for that purpose, by the late
Hon Geo. d. Anderson, in his life time
with conditions that when it ceased to b.
used for educational purposes, then ii wa
to revert to the estate of the grantor, will
| its appurtenances. Under these conditions
no legal sale or title can be made. Wher
schoolrooms are in such great demand in
Marietta, and teachers have to resort Il
private dwellings with their schools, it i:
passing strange that the Grand Jury of thu
county should recommend the discontin
uance of the only public school in town, il
total disregard of the noble purpose of thu
distinguished donor, whose sole object wa
for the public good.
