Value Of Eggs as Food.

Eggs are most invaluable food, for
they contain all that is required for
building up and maintaining the body.
The white of an egg is almost pure
albumen and water. while the yeIk, the
richer part, consists Of albumen with
minute particles of oil In it, and small
amount of salts. AIbumen, which is
81. 3 carbon, IL hydrogen, 1873 nitro
gen, 21.O oxygen and Is sulphur, az
lists in the blood in the proportion of
seventy-fve parts to 1000, in less
quantities in the lymph and chyIe,
juices formed in the process of digestion,
and in trifing amounts in other juices
of the body. To supply this albumen
in the body 1t Is necessary to use ali
ments that contain it. That group of
foods, of which eggs are the foremost,
are called aIbuminOids. The charac-
teristic common to all is that they con-
tain nitrogen, an important element in
the body. Eggs, which are easy of
digestion, both when raw and properly
cooked, are never too costly a food per
Sc. The pure nutriment in them is
One-third of their entire bulk, while
that in beef is ouly one-quaTter, and
that of oysters One~eighth their respec-
tive buIks. So that, with eggs at
twenty-five cents a dozen, round steak
at sixteen cents and mutton chops at
twenty cents a pound, both food and
money are saved by eating the eggs

agree with Grant on this question, being
free in asserting their belief that "SambO"
could not be transformed into a soldier un-
der from one to two years drilling, and
even then he would be Of doubtful quality.
But Gen. Chetlain's belief in the capacity
o. the negro conceded with that OF Grants,
and ne at once entered heartily upon the
WOrk OF recruiting. At the end OIL eight
months he had in his command seventeen
full regiments of infantry two regiments Of
heavy and two companies Of light artillery.
These and all subsequent1cOi ored troops
were Differed by white men from the Union
army, chosen by examining boards com
posed usually OF seven army officers
before whom candidates had to present
themselves properly vOuched for as to good
moral character and sOldIerly qualities.
After rigid examination, the board would
give them such rank as their merits de-
served.
Under this merit system it frequently
happened that a private from the ranks
would receive q commission as Captain or
Major, while some Lieutenant, who owed
his present position to a political pull, was
rejected. Hence the cOlOred troops were.
as q rule better oG1cered than the majority
OF white volunteers and any Union veteran

the war may justly feel proud of the fact

Chet2ain.
A large delegation Of prominent Kentuck-
1ans fastened to Washington and with the
members Of Congress from that State
waited upons or, rather rushed upon Pres
ident Lincoln with such an array Of ap-
him to rescind the order for enlistAg col
Ored troops in their domain.
General Chetiain thereupon returned to
his former post at Memphis, and cOntin-
ued operations in Tennessee and Western
Kentucky.
Wherever the coIored troops were tested
In battle they were found to be at least up
10 the average as to efficiency and bravery,
and. in not few instances. proved
themselves second to none. One
OF many instances IN proof Of this
was shown at the battle Of Nashville,
where a brigade of four regiments under
command Of Col L. j. Morgan. who for
several years after the war was a professor
in the Baptist Theological Seminary at
Morgan Park, near Chicago, held the ex-
IRENE LETT Of the Union lines, forming a
part of General Steedm8n's command. and
earthWOrks and capturing them. with
several pieces OF artillery, meeting with
great loss to themselves in killed and
wounded.
In this charge one regiment lost no less
than four color bearers; one after another
OF the color guard CALAMITY snatched up the
nag when his predecessor fell, the fourth
man falling mOrtally wounded as he planted
the cOlOrs on theIenemy's works. After this
1eaG Gen. SCeedmans who had been sk6p-
teal as to the fighting qualities of the black
men, was Tree to confess that he regarded
them as brave and efficient in battle as the
average white troops.
1t will be remembered that the coIOred
regiment raised in Illinois in 1868 and COM
manded by Colonel BrOss did some gallant
work at Petersburg when the mines were
exploded, at which time Colonel BrOss was
killed while CALAMITY leading the regiment.
The negro soldier had one popularity,
differing from his white brother in that he
seldom. If ever, when routed by the enemy,
threw away gun or knapsack in his retreat.
In the retreat after the battle Of GuntOwn,
in the summer of 1864. when Forrest com
pletely routed the troops under General
SturgiS, who retreated peu- nell in sadly
demoralized condition to Memphis, sixty
miles away, the white soldiers threw away
guns and knapsacks, while the darky
invariably chung to his. In fact, not a
few Of them came into Memphis car

she stole a pair of shoes from

read in the Bible that no uncIean
thing could enter the kingdom of

A RAT story comes from ST Louis.
which has no moral at all, but is most
astonishing. A policeman, having
nothing else to do, watched the man
euvers of a gray old rat In an alley.
Emerging from a hole she moved can
tiOusly to pan Of water standing near.
Presently FIVE young ones rushed out,
and raced to see which would reach the
water first. The mother rat seemed
much alarmed, and, with bound,
reached the edge of the pan, raised her
self on her launches, and bit and
scratched, and otherwise chastised her
offspring whenever they attempted to
drink. After she had succeeded In
chasing the young ones back into their
hole, she vet her Whiskers IN the water,
looked rather suspiciously about, and
slipped the water very cautiously, as If
to learn whether or not 1t contained
poisonous matter. Then, after 8 sat
isfied glance around, she gave squeak,
and the i've young rats came running
out. and all drank their ill.
