Hints On Eating.

Rapid eating is slow suicide.
Plenty of time should be taken.
Dinper should be of a lighter
nature in summer than in winter.
Mere grat;6cation Of the appetite
is very likely to shorten life.
It is not good to dine when in a
state of mental or physical weakness.
Two pounds of potatoes contain as
much nutriment as thirteen pounds
of turnips.
Light soups, light desserts, and
light meats should have the prefer
erence in warm weather.
Fi>h and oysters are easily digest
ed. An hour or two of rest should
be taken after the meal.
Abuse Of the stomach at dinner
will be repaid sooner or later by that
punishment which comes to the
glutton.
Vegetables and fruits are to be
used most generally at that season OF
the year in which they naturally
mature.

DENIES HER GUILT.

Special Correspondent to The Dispatch:
Washington, D. G, March 3.
This week witnessed the close of
the greatest political debate ever
known in this country. Wednesday
and Thursday the oratorical storm
clouds which had been gathering,
and whose approaching thunders
had been heard for ten days past,
burst forth is such grandeur and
brilliancy as has never before been
equalled in the history of Congress.
sional combats. The immediate
cause of 30 much and such lurid
pyrotechinics was the consideration
of the Porto Rican Tariff about
which the Republican leaders have
within the last fifteen days cut a
complete somersault, and even the
President has modified his views to
meet the pressue of partisan politics
and protected pets, who contribute
literally to the Republican campaign
fund.
The bill as passed, and every one
is familiar with it's provisions, places
the Republican in favor Of a colonial
evstem, and in direct antagonism to
the expressed, implied ard applied
provisions of the Constitution, which
is now spelled with small sc" by the
Republicans who disregard its sacred
principles.
South Carolina played no small
part in this momentous legislation
and contributed her full share to the
volume of Democratic law and logic
as gathered from the expressed
meaning of the Constitution and
from the unbroken line of decisions
by the Supreme Court of the land,
all of which sustain beyond caVil the
contentious of the Democrats. Wed
nesday night Congressman Stokes
and Talbert joined the lists and ex-
cellent protests against the danger
GUS departure from the spirit and
letter of the guide book OF American
legislation.
| Congressman Stokes said in part,
I feel the deepest sympathy for these
unfortunate people, yet I cannot see
my way clear to help them by the
method proposed by this bill. [ be-
lieve that it is my duty in consider
ing this, or any other bill, to measure
it by the Constitution, and in casting
my vote, I feel that l should be
guided by the result of that meas
urement. I am bound by my oath
to stay within the Constitutional
boundaries, and 1 believe that the
American interest and liberty demand
that the Constitution remain intact.
But aside from the Constitution
obstacles, which seem insurmount,
able we are not shut in to this one
: source of help as is claimed by gen,
tlemen on the other side of the
House. But whether we are shut IN
to this method of relief or not, this
particular road to relief is effectually
blocked by the Constitution, and fol

: of it.
