I purchased in this city package Of Prof.

and ind that the same is composed of pure
and nOn-pOisOnOus chemicals.
The idea OF Prof. HOrsford was indeed a
grand one in suppanting the indigestiblC tar
tnrate of soda, which is always the end result
of all Baking Powders composed of Cream of
Tartar and Soda, by the soluble phosphate of
lime and soda, the very nutritive value of
bread. and the bOne-prOducing elements of
nature.
1t is certainly the best and most healthy
bread raising preparation ever offered TO the
public, and every mother that has the health
of her children at heart should use no other.

the late celebrated chemist, Prof Baron V.
Liebig, to this preparation in saying: 81 CON

MORAvIAN CUSTOMS.

Institutions Peculiar to the Prosperous
Settlements of the Herrnhuters.
The Moravians have settlements not
only in Germany, but also in England,
Switzerland and America. They hold
nearly all the doctrines of Luther. Their
largest settlement, called Herrnhut, is in
Saxony, and the Moravians in many
parts of Germany bear the name of
Herrnhuter. In each community there
are two houses set apart-one for the
unmarried men, called the Brothers s
house," and the other for all unmarried
sisters or widows who wish to enter
them. The Moravians can not marry
without the consent of the elders of
their church, and in some cases the
bridegroom has been chosen for the
bride. They seldom marry outside the
community, and their engagements are
nearly as solemn as the marriage. The
weddings are very simple, the sister
wearing but black dress with white
lace handkerchief, and her pretty cap
with its pale pink ribbon, which is
changed afterwards for pale blue rib
bon when the ceremony is finished.
There are always two rings at wedding
IN Germany, as there married man al
ways wears one, which he receives from
his bride in exchange for his. The
Moravians wear no Grape nor mourning
for their dead, and they speak of them
as blessed, and of death as .going
home" They call the graveyard ..God s
acre." and they take the greatest care
of their graves. But there also is the
division, rs in the church, for the men
are buried on one side of the cemetery
and the women on the other. The
Moravians are all well educated, and
the poorer brethren amongst them en-
joy the same privileges in their excel
lent schools as do the richer brethren.
Life amongst the United Brethren is
simple and unartifcial, love to God and
man being their first principle; and
many who have lived amongst them
bear in their hearts loving memory of
their goodness, and of the pretty little
village of Nuedietendorf. Interior.

Republican criticism of the Demo-
critic Administration is essentially
mean and contemplate. The organs
of the opposition have been driven to
small business. So successfully have
the heads of the Executive Department
met the responsibilities of Office and so
faithfully have they acquitted them
selves, as rule, that those who. out of
their desire to restore the Republican
ascendency, must needs find some fault
in the present order of things, are
forced to make mountains of
scandal out of the most inconse-
quential mole-hills of error. These
censors convict themselves of envy,
malice, prejudice and venality. Hav-
ing gone cunning for big game and
finding none, they, in excess of their
disappointment, expend their powder
recklessly and viciously upon the land
scape at large, or seek to knock over
that which was despised in the ardor
and high expectation of tho start. The
small fault of a small clerk gives oc-
casion for columns of editorial mock
indignation, and individual exhibition
of common human weakness on the
part of the humblest employe of a
great department raises an awful din
among the conspiring magpies.-Iasd-
