Rice -four added to wheat -four, ena
blcs it to take up an increased quantity
Of water. Boiled and mashed potatoes
mixed with the dough, cause the bread to
retain moisture, and prevent it from dry
ing and crumbling. Rye makes u dark
colored bread but 1t is capable Of being
fermented and raised in the same man
ner US wheat. 1t retains its freshness
and moisture longer than wheat. An
adnixture Of rye -four with that Of wheat
decidedly improvee the latter in this
respect Indian corn bread is much used
in this country. Mixed with wheat and
rye o dough is produced capable Of fer
mentation; but pure maize meal cannot
be iermented so as to form light bread.
Its gluten lacks the tenacious quality
to produce the regular cell structure. 1t
is most commonly used in tho form Of
cakes, made to a certain degree light BY
eggs or sour milk and saeratus, and is
generally eaten warm. Indian corn is
ground into meal of various degrees o.
coarseness, but is never made SO fine as
wheaton -four. Bread or cakes made of
maize require considerably longer time
to be aced upon by heat in the baking
process, than wheat or rye. If ground
wheat be unbolted, that is, if its bran be
not separated, wheat meal or Graham
-four results, from which Graham or dys.
pep,ic bread is produced. 1t is made in
tho same general way as other wheaton
bread, but requires little peculiar man.
agement Upon this point Mr.. Graham
remarks:


"The wheat meal, and especially if it
is ground eoarsely, swells considerably in
the dough, and therefore the dough
should not at irst be made quite SO stiff
as that Of superfne -four and when it is
raised, if it is found too soft to mould
we'll, little more meal may be added
1t should be remarked that dough made
Of wheat meal will take on the acetous
fermentation, or become sour sooner than
that made of fine -four. 1t requires q
hotter oven, and to be baked longer. but
must not stand SO long after benig mixed

THE GERMAN VOTE ALL RIcaT-MANLy
UTTERANCE OF THE ANzEIGER-THE GER

NoMINEEs.-The subjoined translation of an
editorial article which appeared in the Rich
mona Anze'ger German newspaper) yes
tcrday shows that the rumors started by

pendent in politics seems now to be taking
bold Conservative stand.


" Evil-disposed persons have lately been
industriously circulating reports about the
Germans of Richmond which are likely to
injure their reputation for patriotism and
to bring them into disrepute with many of
the people of their adopted State. 1t is said
that the Germans will not support this or
that man iC he is nominated by the Conser-
vatve party. We repeat that these things
are doing our nationality harm. The Ger
mans are as true as the Irish, or the native
born, and when they become members of a
party they are with it in earnest, and they
will not be frightened away from the sup
port Of Conservative principles by the name
Of any one man who may be the Standard
bearer of their party. 1t is said that they
will not support Mr.. Ellyson if he receives
the nomination for Mayor. This is untrue.
Mr.. Ellyson has frequently carried the city
of Richmond by the aid of the German
vote and if he is nominated next Thurs
day, by their aid he will carry it again. We
belong to no one mans party. and the Ger
mans of Richmond are slaves Of no ring !;
but our interests are the interests Of the
whole white people of Virginia, and who
ever may be the choice OF the people tho
Germans will rally to his support"

Gross Violation Of tho Health Laws.


Nothing more shocking has occurred iu this
vicinity since the fearful days Of 1S49, when
pestilence swept over the city, than the dis
covery made by the revenue officers in the
lower bay, on board brig from Havana, of
the putrid corpse of the captain slowed away
In the cargo of sugar. It appears that the
chief officer Of the ship had died of Asiatic
cholera. and his remains were actually detained
on board as found, in contact with cargo, for
several days, while the vessel was lying in
this port, waiting an opportunity to evade
Quarantine, and possibly, also, watching
chance to cheat the government by smuggling
her goods into Perth Amboy. What sort of
monsters the mate and crew of this vessel are
1t would be hard to divine but we see in their
outrageous and unnatural conduct some of the
fruits of bad example set by certain merchants
who for the sake Of paltry saving of Quaran-

the law by running vessels from infected ports
into Perth Amboy, regardless whether conta-
gious diseases were carried into the heart of the
city, perchance to desolate thousand homes.

Territorial TricIxery.


piece OF sharp territorial practice has come to
the knowledge OF the Interior Department. BY act
OF Congress all the laws passed each session by the
Territorial Legislatures published at the expense
OF the United States government. The Legislature
OF Montana desiring to have all its enactments pub
lished from the formation OF the Territory up to the
present day, hit upon the novel expedent OF re-
enacting at Its last session all the past and present
laws In this way the publication OF the whole batch
oflaws was procured without costing the Territory
one cent, and the general government has had TO
foot the modest little bill of $1,000 in consequence.
The authorities OF the Treasury aud Interior Depart
ments regard the trick as very clever; indeed,
worthy of the cutest Philadelphia lawyer.
