official Analysis OF Baking Powders
Authorizations In Sirenm OF Tartar.

Authorizations i'm Cream OF Tartar.
Under the direction of the New York
State Board of Health, eighty four differ
eDt kinds of baking powders, embracing
all the brands that could be found for sale
in the state, were submitted to examina-
ton and analysis by Prof. Z. +. Chandler,
member of the State Board and Presi-
dent of tie New York City Board of
Health, assisted by Prof. Edward G. Love,
the well-known United States Government
chemist.
The official report shows that large
number of the powders examined were
found to contain alum or lime; many of
them to such an extent as to render them
seriously Objectionable for use in the pre-
paration OF human food
Alum was found in twenty nine samples.
This drug is employed in baking powders
to cheaper their cost. The presence OF
lime is attributed to the impure cream of
tartar Of commerce used in their nanufac-
ture. Such cream of tartar was also ana
lyzed and found to contain lime and other
Impurities; in some samples to the extent
of % per cent. Of their entire weight.
All the baking powders of the market,
with the single exception of Royal {not
Including the alum and phosphate pow
ders, which lave not the virtue of even an
impure cream Of tartar), are made from
the aduterated cream of tartar of com
merce, and consequently contain lime to a
corresponding extent.
The only baking powder yet found by
chemical analysis to be entirely free from
lime and absolutely pure is the "Royal."
This perfect purity results from the cx-
elusive use Of cream Of tartar specially re-
fined and prepared by patent processes
which totally remove the tartrate of lime
and other impurities. The cost of this
chemically pure cream of tartar is much
greater than any other, and on account of
this greater cost is used in no baking pow
der but the Royal"
Prof. Love, who made the analysis of
baking powders fol the New York State
Board of Health, as well as for the Gov
eminent, says of the purity and whole
someness of the Royal

posed of pure and wholesome ingredients.

The deadlock which entirely stopped
legislation in the lover branch of Con-
gress last week will be an historical one.
The fiIibustering continued uninterrupt-
eddy for five days roll call following roll
call on alternate motions for adjournment
and recess. Both sides doggedly deter
mined to keep up the fight. Both were in
the worst of tempers over the matter, and
unfortunately, under the present working
rules of the House, q determined minority
has it in its power to prevent Legislation
by dilatory tactics. The issues on which
the House was divided, to the shameful
delay and embarrassment of other import
ant business, were these: The majority
of the Judiciary Committee hold in regard
to the direct tax bill OF 1861 that it should
either be collected 10 full, or abandoned,
and restitution made to those who have
paid. The minority claim that as the
Government in the exercise of constitu
tonal power laid and collected this tax,
and applied it to a constitutional purpose
that of the common defense-those who
paid it, whether States or citizens, have
no claim either in law or equity for the
return Of any part of it. As for those who
have not paid, the Government has con-
clnded to treat all further obligation to
pay as cancelled This is the case in
brief. The bill has not yet even been
touched Tuesday aud Wednesday had
been set apart for the discussion of the bill
but both days were filibustered away and
the remainder of the week went in the
same way. 4 vote of adjournment could
not be reached, and consequently the bill
could not be laid aside. Several times dur
ing the deadlock it was discovered after a
recess that there was not a quorum pres
