Gen. ellison, Col. w. A. Henderson
and Gen. Lolgstreet.
His Speech
In the course of his speech. Gen.
Longstreat said that he told President
Davis after the battle of Chickamauga
that the Confederacy was doomed. He
says that he came to Knoxville and
made despe ate assault on Fort Sand
ers, but his heart was not in it, as he
was convinced it was lost cause. He
says OF the attack on the fort, that he
alone bears the undivided respo 'sibility
of that ald the death of 700 Of his brave
men. He says that it may be some
comfort TO know that whatever might
have been the result Of the little battle
it could no5 have affected the result Of
the war; the south was to be defeated.
He seems to agree with the general idea
that the city conll have been taken hal
he assaulted tha fort when he first
reached it.
Gen LonGstrcet says that the speech
IN all Trobab l,ty is the last public ut
terance he would give in such rublic
way. Ex-Federal and Confederates
alike shed tears during its delivery.
Gen. Gibson, of Ohio, followed Gen.

He Happens Along in Time to Make Him
self Serviceable.
The Echo de Paris tells an amusing
story of an event which, it says, oc-
Cured day or two ago. Two gentle
men-a journalist and an artist-were
about to leave small hotel in one of
the avenues radiating from the Arc de
Triomphe, where they had spent the
evening. Unfortunately, the concierges
Gordon was broken, and he could not find
the key. 1t was impossible for the Wis
itors to get out, or for the tenants of the
house to get in. It was about eleven
o'clock, and there were but a few passers-
by. Our two gentlemen, who knew
tenant on the ground floor, got out by
one of his windows, and promised to
find locksmith. All the shops were
shut, however, and none of the lock-
smiths in the quarter would take the
trouble to answer when the bell was
rung. Never sergeant de vile could
be found. Failing to find an officer,
they asked where was the nearest police
station. The one in the Ternes had
been shut up for a couple of hours, the
one at the Batignolies the same, and at
the third they were sent about their
business. Meanwhile it was one clock,
and long line of benighted tenants was
drawn up before the fast-closed door.
Their would-be deliverers were begin
ming to lose courage, when very
notwithstanding individual stumbled
against them.
The artist, who had all his wits about
him, stopped the man quietly, and TAX
ing off his hat said: 81 beg your par
don, sir, but you don't happen to have a
Jimmy and a SGT of false keys in your
pocket?" The man looked at them sus-
piciously for moment, and then whisp-
cred: rs it TO crack crib?" ALAS"
replied the journalist, ''we know OF no
one whom we can rob at present; our
friends are all at the seaside" and then
the artist explained to the night wan
derer what was the service they re-
uuired of him. 'All right. But get
the inquisitive people out of the way.
| don't want to give free lessons. They
returned to the house, and our friends
announced that locksmith had been
found, and begged the benighted ones to
make way for him. They let him pass,
and the burglar opened the door in the
twinkling of an eye, amid perfect
chores of thanks. The two gentlemen
wanted to give the honest burglar a
couple of francs, but, drawing himself
up with dignity, he exclaimed: "Sir,
among pals!'' And tn at is how it came
to pass that in one of the best quarters
of Paris citizens in distress, to whom
the police refused help, were able to get
into their house, thanks to the admira-
BILE institution of the corps of burglars,
the true night guardians of society.

INCOMES OF LAWYERS.
Limited Number Earn Large Sums
While the Majority Barely Exist.

A Limited Number Earn Large Sums
While the Majority Barely Exist.
The much mooted question of the av-
erage income of lawyers, as compared
with those of other pursuits, can never
be determined with accuracy, because
the principle of the success applying
with greater aptness to the legal career
than to any other, lawyers are the most
reluctant of any class to admit the
meagerness of their individual incomes
and perhaps the most disposed to exag-
gerate them. Every body knows that
certain lawyers in New York have great
incomes. Some are even mentioned as
making 100000 year from their prac-
tice. While is is doubtless true that
more than that sum of money has been
made in a single year by several of the
great legal lights yet it is doubtful
whether any of them ever continued to
average so much from his practice sew
eral years in succession. The men who
have made 100000 in legal practice
within any twelve months in New York
could probably be counted on ones
fingers, and their ordinary income would
be from SD, 600 to 500, 900.
In the next class is much larger
number of first-class lawyers, whose in
come ranges from $4,000 to SIS, 900.
Common report would include 200 to 800
in this category. The most of them are
over forty years old, and, generally
speaking, there will be a general in
crease in income from the fortieth to
the sixtieth year. Many Of them are
men whose names seldom or never APP
pear in the newspapers, and who are
comparatively unknown to the public.
They are known as 'office lawyers
often the best trained legal minds that
furnish the law for the use of their
partners with the more snowy talents
of the advocate. Some of them are gen
eral counsel for one or more great cor
porations, to which they devote all
their time and energies under general
retainer, which precludes the accept
ance of other clientage. The noteworthy
point in the present connection is that
nearly all of them will admit that until
they verged close upon forty years Of
age their incomes were small.

These vacuum pans are for condensing
the milk, and are similar to those for
condensing the beet root, having
double bottom and spiral pans,

water contained in the milk is removed
in the form of vapor by means of jet,
which is connected with the top of the
vacuum pan, and which is operated by
means of a pneumatic pump. When the
milk has been sufficiently condensed, it
is removed from tho vacuum pans and

now to pack the milk into tin boxes.

In the preparation of the condensed
milk, it may be observed that the milk,
as taken directly from the COW, has on
the one hand simply been deprived of
tho water it contained, while on tho
other hand the only addition consisted
of pure sugar, which is designed to pre-
serve the milk better. 1t contains all
the elements of the fresh milk, which
has practically undergone no modifica-

affirmed. therefore, that the condensed
milk possesses all the nutritive quail
