The New York Sun of the 12th til- |
timo seems to understand our senior
Senator, judging from the following:
Hippie Mitchell, in his speech in
the Senate defending his scheme to se
cure a new land grant for tho benefit
of Jay Gould and the Union Pacific,
admitted that the country was thor
oughly sick of the system of subsidies
to railroads. Hippie also condescend
ingly remarked that the universal pub
lic sentiment was “in a great measure
well founded.” We are truly delight
ed to hear Hippie say this. He is a
statesman of such gigantic stature, ami
up to tho time that Mr. Thompson, at 1
present member of Congress from ■
Pennsylvania, helped him out of that
good old Commonwealth between two I
days, he had earned a character so |
stainless that wo were ror.lly not quite 1
sure that the people of tho United
States were right iu withholding the '
public property from the Goulds and
the Scotts and the Huntingtons until
this welcome sentence had fallen from
the lips of Hippie himself. But doubt
is past now. Hippie has it, and, being (
sure we are right, wo shall still go
ahead.
But, aftpr all, Hippie has a strange
way of showing his faith. The fruits
that he brings forth are meet for any
thing but repentance. He doesn’t be
lieve in subsidies; he thinks that the
public sentiment against the practice
is, “as it were,” just. But the purb
Hippie proposes, iu that very breath,
to confiscate about five million acres i
from lands once granted to the North- 1
ern Pacific, and make a grant of them
to Jay Gould, or to somebody for Jay
Gould, on tiie sorry pretence that they
are to used to build a road from Port
land to Salt Lake. Now, Mr. Hippie,
if he lives weeks longer, muy learn
that, in addition to the sentiment
against subsides, there is also a very
general sentiment against Jay Gould
and all his works. This, like the oth-
tr, is, “as it were,” just; or, in the
phrase which Hippie seems to prefer,
it “is in a measure, well founded.”
He might just as well pause before
he butts against the stone wall. If
Hippie should unfortunately collide
with an immovable body, and knock
his brains out, the enormous quantity
of them flying about would produce
something like the rcjKirted rain ot
uncooked flesh In Kentucky. We re
ally trust that Hippie will be preserved
to us. Since the prostration of the ex
cellent Mr. Patterson of South Carolina
we can Dot possibly spare Hippie. He
is now the only surviving specimen in
good condition ot the Cameron school
of Pennsylvania statesman. We trust
the people of Oregon will perceive the
necessity of returning Hippie to the
Senate, and we earnestly advise Hip
pie himself to see that Mr. Gould pays
cash to cover election expenses as be
goes along. He ought also to !>e more
circumspect as to the manner in w hich
he serves Mr. Gould.
Thompson’s
resolution, looking to the forfeiture of
the whole Northern Pacific grant,
would undoubtedly prove a very effec
tual method of removing all danger of
the Northern line competing with the
Union Pacific. But Hippie ought not
to have got Thompson to offer it.
Thompson is well known as Hippie’s
other self, and if the resolution passes,
and the people of Oregon find them
selves deprived of even the sickly
prospect of a railroad held out by the
Northern Pacific, they may get sure
about it, and remund Hippie to private
life.

to be a good Judge of beverages, of

he felt on reading a New York firm’s
panphlet on adulterations. The au
thors deal iu preparations for making
all kinds of wines and liquors. They
-ay that good French brandy can be
made of forty gallons of alcohol proper I

two ounces of “our brandy oil.” They
add: “To imitate any particular bran

in about the same way with “our whis
ky oil.” This is the receipt for sherry:
“Four ounces sherry oil, thirteen gal
lons pure spirit proof. Mix and twen
ty-seven gallons cider, fine quality;
one gallon white syrup. Three to five
gallons of good foreign sherry added
will improve.” A decoction of malva
flowers is recommended for the color
ing of port. Mr. Beecher gives his
own opinion as follows: “The pur
chaser of pure foreign and imported
liquors ought to understand that it is
simply impossible to buy a pure native
wine outside of the country where it
is made; that in London alono there is
sold every year more Madeira than
the whole island of Madeira produces;
that in one season, In a single city of
this country, there was sold as much
California wine as the whole California
coast produced; that a brisk trade is
driven in chamgpague corks and im
ported bottles, which are required to
do service over and over again year
after year; that the Custom House
mark is no guarantee, for by laws of I
Great Britain the adulteration of liq
uors is allowed iu bond; that the im
porter’» assurance is no guarantee, for
the wines exported to the United
States are doctored with alcohol before
they leave the country where they are

A R emedy for B urns . —At a re
cent meeting of the Massachusetts
Dental Society there was an announce
ment by Dr. G. F. Waters, of Salem,
ui a very simple and easy remedy for
burns and scalds, which seems, to us
worth setting before the public, since
Dr. Waters tested it before the as
sembled meeting. The remedy con
sists simply iu covering the burned
or scalded part with the common bi-
carlronate of soda, found iD almost ev

nary “soda” used in cooking—and then
cover that with a wet cloth. The se
vere pain is said to Ire immediately
relieved, and the burn rapidly heal»
without leaving a sear—urlesa it be
a very bad burn. Dr. Waters subjected
himself to a severe test iu the pres
ence of the meeting; he poured boiling
water upon one of his wrists, till the
flesh near the surface was “cooked,”
—then he applied the soda and the wet
cloth, and the pain ceased as if by
magic, and all appearance of the burn

season of the year for the trouble so of

little avail. We have been told that
thia application of soda immediately
destroys the smarting of “sunburn,”
