Another reason for satisfaction is found
in JACKsoNs superiority to SLAvN socially.

How Americans and Europeans are Fed.

In an article entitled. What the Com
ing Man Will Eat" contributed by Mr.. W. o.
ATwATER to the last number OF the Forum.
there are some interesting comparisons be-
tween the inhabitants OF Europe and those
of our own country as regards the nourish-
ing quality of their food. The author thinks
that We eat too much; but. however that
may be. there seems to be no doubt that we
eat more food and more expensive food
than any other people In the world.
Mr.. ATwATER prefaces the results OF his
inquiries by reminding US that food nour-
ishes our bodies In two ways. first, by
building and repairing the tissues. and,
secondly. by furnishing fuel to keep the
body warm and give 1t strength to do Its
work. The protein or heterogeneous COM
pounds. such as tho myosln, which forms
the basis OF lean meat. the albumen of eggs,
the casein Of milk. and the gluten Of wheat.
are sometimes called fesh-formers. because
flesh. or. In other words muscle and sinew,
is formed from them. though thoy make
blood and bone as well. The fuel ingre-
dents are the fats and carbohydrates, such
as butter. olive oil. and the oils OF corn and
other vegetable foods. 1t is custom
airy for chemists to compute the fuel
value OF nutrients In heat units
or calories. one calore being the
amount of heat needed to raise one pound
OF water about four degrees Fahrenheit. A
pound OF potatoes. which are three-quarters
water. contains about $40 calories: pound
OF rather fat sirloin Of beef 900. pound of
wheat flour 1000. and pound Of butter
$500 calories. Mr.. ATwATER Is. of course.
right In saying that diet should be SO ad-
justed as to provide at once enough protein
for the building and repair Of tissue. and
enough fuel to keep 1t warm so as to do its
work. Enough. but not too much; for. &C.

Some OF the BLAINE enthusiasts have
reached the point OF declaring that delegates
instructed for HARRISON are absolved from
all obligation to vote for him. This dissolution
is to be given upon the theory that MIR. BLAINE
was not known to be candidate when the
instructions were made. and that the instruc-
hons would have been for him II tho conven-
dons had understood what tho game was.
This is q convenient theory for the purposes
OF the gentlemen who are manifesting so much
eagerness to beat Gen. HARRISON; but 1t is
far from creditable to their idea OF good faith
An instructed delegate cannot honorably dis
obey his instructions. at least as long Us thore
is any reasonable chance Of the success OF the
candidate for whom he has been instructed.
II Mr.. BLAINE consents to allow his name to
go before the Convention. tho uninstructed
delegates will have perfect right to vote for
him II they choose: but the obligation OF the
HARRIsoN delegates to vote for Gen. HARRISON
will not be impaired. tn desire to go in when 1t
rains is natural. but sentry is obliged to keep
walking UP and down Just the same. Tho
frenzied zeal Of some Of Gen. HARRIsoN's foes
to prevent his denomination ought not to
deaden their sense Of political morality to the
extent OF advising delegates to sacrifice honor
10 enthusiasm.

Such is the New York Democratic cleo
toral ticket for President and Vice-Presi-
dent OF the United States. duly nominated
by the State Convention assembled in the
city Of Albany on Feb. "a. in response to the
call OF the Democratic State Committee
issued pursuant to the call Of the Demo-
cratic National Committee. That State Con-
vention declared the preference OF the De-
mocracy Of New York for DAVID BENNETT
HILL. 1t is the hope and expectation OF the
100000 Democratic voters Of the State Of
New York that these thirty-six Democratic
electors will be called upon to cast the votes
that will determine the next Presidential
election In favor OF the nominees Of the
Chicago Convention.
This is plain enough. and yet handful
OF discredited and disowned former Federal
officeholders. deprived of their posts by the
unwise and suicidal nomination Of the Pres
idential candidate whom they are again en-
deavoring to put in the field. held a farcical
Convention of boilers in Syracuse yester-
day, under the lead Of some miscellaneous
Mugwumps. This Mugwump gathering was
called to impute irregularity to the Con-
vention which nominated the Democratic
electoral ticket. and IL possible. to embarrass
the acts OF the State Committee upon which
the candidates OF the Chicago Convention
must depend for success in New York.
Though long engaged in endeavoring to dis
organize and distract the Democracy. these
Mugwumps are now sounding the depths Of
political folly beyond the measurement OF
any gauge OF vacuity yet discovered. The
parallel OF their foollshness Is only to be
found in their own previous proceedings.
1t will. however. occasion no damage to the
Democracy. The Democratic electors nom
mated at Albany will carry the State. and
will vote in December for the next Presi-
dent and Vice-President OF the United
States.
