For thirty wears our MARYLAND chef
has increasingly proclaimed, in season
and out of season, that Republican
hens laid bad egg, that the hens
were a mongrel breed aud would not

ot the SIN imagined that by adding
fifty thousand African eggs and
fifty thousand Nray eggs. five or ten
thousand genuine reform eggs. il
could get up an omelet that would
satisfy the most fasgdious taste Of crab
and ierrapin eating Marylanders. It
evidently imagined that the sound eggs
though few in number, would leaven
the whole basket full Of bad eggs aud
cover up both the taste and the odor.
