public health from the effects of food adul-

its the manufacture of oleomargarine under
heavy fine. II this bill passes, and be-
comes law as it doubtless will, the legisla-
ture will have done good work in abolish

enters SO largely into family use, and is so
extensively undermining the public health,
producing disease and death.

New York has taken the initiative in the
right direction, and it is to be hoped, and
indeed, expected that other states will fol-
low this wholesome and proper example, till
this wide spread form of food adulteration
shall come to a positive end.

1t may be remem bered that Mr.. Joseph
Wharton, of Philadelphia, after snowfall on
JAM 20, away from the possibility of accum-
ulating terrene dust, found in the snow dust
of pumice stone, tending to show that it fell
with the snow from the atmosphere, and
helping the theory that the peculiar sunsets
are attributable to volcanic dust. The ship
Ridgeway, which was about 500 miles from
Java at the time of the CONFUSION there, and
had her decks covered with pumice stone,
arrived in New York few days ago. Mr..
Wharton has procured some of the pumice
and finds it identical with that found in the
snow at Philadelphia. He regards the fact
conclusive as to the cause Of the rudy twi
light.

THE HAPPY F4IMILY.

Republicans in view of the possible nomi-
conspicuousy the appearance of harmoni-
GUS, happy family. The Utica Herald, a
prominent Republican paper, published at
the home of Ex-senator Conkling, with sug-
gestive inquiry in regard to Mr.. Arthur has
the following:
1T is desirable to know whether George Bliss
was paid an extravagant sum for insuring the
miscarriage of justice in the star route cases.
His personal relations to President Arthur make
this enquiry delicate one; but at the same time
they add to its Importance. II there was, as ap-
pears, conspiracy to defeat justice, it is import
ant to KIN ow whether President Arthur was u
silent partner in it. 1t looks, at present, as if
such was the unwelcome fact
Here is insinuated what is elsewhere open
ly charged and believed, that the govern
ment conspired to defeat the Star route
prosecutions, and that Arthur, himself, was
privy to the conspiracy. This is a serious
charge, but is not without the support of
very strong circumstantial, if not direct evil
dence. The Buffalo Express, another infiuen-
tial Republican journal is in full sympathy
with the Utica Herald in its position in re-
gard to the animus of the administration in
the Star route cases, and score or more of
other Republican papers in the state of New
York, are imbued with the same sentiments,
making it uphill work to raise an Arthur
boom in the Empire state.
Republican journals in o Their states are mer-
cilessly nagging Mr.. Arthur, and among them
the Philadelphia Press sneers athim as the
"Acting President" The New York city pa
pers, the Tribune, the Times, the Eyeaing Post
joins in slurs upon thepretentions of Mr.. Ar
thur, and that gentleman is finding the polite
al Jordan of his own state hard road to travel.
OF course the Democrats wish this ''happy
family" much joy in their contentious.

CURRENT COMMENT,

THE peanut is popular American institution,
and probably no one item Of popular luxury has
SO extensive consumption. In the south, how
ver,where it is most successfully produced, is it
turned to the greatest account. south
ern pader says the Virginians are beginning to
turn the peanuts into flour, and say that it makes
palatable biscuit. In Georgia, there is Gus
tom. now growing old, Of grinding or pounding
the shelled peanuts, and turning them into pastry
which has resemblance both in looks and taste
to that of cocoanut, but the peanut pastry is
more oily and richer, and we think, healthier
and better every way. If, as some people be-
lieve, Africa sent curse to America in slavery,
she certainly conferred upon her blessing in the
universally popular peanut, which grows SO we'll
throughout the southern regions that we shall
soon be able to cut off the now large importation
altogether.

The Ont 4sEed En-

CHICAGO, March 25.-It is stated the Balt-
more & Ohio road to-day applied to Commits
sioner Fink for a reduction of ten cents per
hundred in the pig lead rates from Chicago
to the seaboard, on the ground that cut to
that amount has been made at st. Louis, and
met by some of the Chicago lines. This cut
derives significance from the fact that the
pig lead shippers had an agreement with the
trunk lines, by which the rates should remain
unchanged throughout the year, regardless Of
fluctuations in other rates.

THE Albany Evening Journal, Thurlow
Weeds old paper, after he left it, was put
into the role of independent journalism, and
struck out vigorously for "free trade.n 1t
has recently been sold to parties who repudi-
ate free trade and independent journalism at
one blow. They say:
We believe that our best interests are secured
by protective tariff that will shelter American
industry, encourage it to healthy competition
with itself and broaden it until it can contribute
proper share in supplying the markets of the
world. We believe in the thorough advocacy of
Civil Service reform stripped of some of its
shortcomings md impracticabilities. We believe
in free and Independent discussion of all party
questions within the partys lines and in holding
an unbroken and aggressive front when its policy
is settled.
Thus this old, widely known and infuen-
tial paper again becomes party "organ"
pure and simple.
