TIE CALIFORNIA AND OREGON GRANT.

The Msrysville Appeal, after reviewing
the whole debate, declares that nearly
every journal in that Congressional district
advocates the Letting alone" of the land
grant to the California and Oregon Rail
road. It adds "This fact should not be
without influence upon Congressman Hen
ley. The reason for this advocacy is not
because these journals are railroad
organs IL the common parlance of the day,
but because they know that the people Of
this section of the State will be great gain.
els by the early completion Of this road
and the close connection made with the
Northern Pacific overland railroad"

WHAT IS TO BE Dove WITH THEM

In the pest-house at San Francisco there
are now no less than twenty Chinese lepers.
The one most recently sent to the hospital
was taken from factory where his scsly
hands were employed ia rolling cigars. 1t
is only about twenty years ago since
leprosy first appeared in the Sandwich
Islands, and to-day the Hawaiian Govern
ment has no problem more difficult of So
luton than the question &c How shall the
spread of leprosy be checked" 1t has be-
come the one disease there from half
dozen lepers in twenty years there have
arisen thousands, and leper colonies are
now OF necessity maintained. The climatic
conditions are less favorable to its spread in
California, but it is bad enough to know
that within single year even in the
climate of San Francisco the lepers have
grown from two or three to twenty. Where
is this thing to stop? To what extent is it
liable TO grow? How great public
charge are lepers to become in California
These are questions that may well begin to
engage public attention.

was higher in the American river than in such an

Sam Ward as q Poet.
Lines in Which He Hints at the Poetry Of
Dining and Gives Some Good
Recipes.

The late Mr.. Sam Ward, the well-known bon
ucant is responsible for the following lines which
are probably new to the majority of our readers
Always have lobster sauce with salmon,
And put.mint sauce your roasted lamb on.
Veal outlets dip in egg and bread crumb,
Fry till you see broEnish red come.
Crate Gruyere cheese on maccaroni,
Make the top crisp but not to bony.
In venison gravy, currant jelly
Mix with old PortHsee Francatelli.
In dressing salad mind this Law:
With two hard eggs use one that's raw.
Roast veal with rich stock gravy serve
And picked mushrooms, too, observe
Roast pork sans apple sauce, past doubt,
Is Hamlet with the Prince left out.
Your mutton chops with paper cover,
And make them amber brown all over.
Broil lightly your beefsteak-to fry it 90
Argues contempt ofSChnstian diet.
Kidneys, fine favor gain,
By stewing them in good champagne.
Buy stall fed pigeons; when you've got them,
The way to cook them is to pot them.
Wood grouse are dry-when grumps have narred
'em,
Before you roast 'em always lard 'em.
To roast spring chickens is to spoil em-
Just split 'em down the back and broil 'em.
1t gives true epicures the vapors
To see boiled mutton minus capers.
Boiled turkey, gourmonds know, of course,
Is exquisite with celery sauce.
The cook deserves hearty cutting
Who serves roast fowl with tasteless stuf6ng.
SmeIts require egg and biscuit powder
Don't put fat pork in your clam chowder.
Egg sauce-few make it right alas )
Is good with bluefsh OF with bass.
Nice oyster sauce gives zest to cod
fish when fresh, to feast god.
Shad stuffed and baked is most delicious,
Would have electrified Apicius.
Roasted in paste haunch of mutton,
Might make ascetics play the glutton.
But one might rhyme for weeks this way
And still have lots of things to say,
And so I'll close, for reader mine,
This is about the time dine.
