t ail the wild, weird, unearthly
beverages which are supposed to have a
cooling effect and make a man feel as
though lie is located on a cake office
with angels fanning his ferercd brow,
lemonade boars the jialm. That is,
homemade lemonade. There is scarcely
a family of any note or respectability in,
the whole of this broad land that hasn't
some time or other compounded this
decoction. About midday the girls all
get thirsty. They don't know exactly
what they want, so after trying various
things they decide to have this awe
inspiring mixture. Of course at this
time there are no lemons in the house,
and the boy of the establishment meets
with an untimely yank from a base ball
match to go for some. lie comes into
the house weeping, and threatens to
smash his sister's doll into a thousand
bits for satisfaction. After being repri
manded for what his mother terms
Hector-liko conduct, he starts for the
store, but he doesn't whistle on the way.
Not an air of Pinafore is rendered in
in the sanguinary manner peculiar to the
small bov. He finallv returns with the
lemons, and is told he inuy resume his
base ball duties, but he doesn't do it, he
wants somo lemonade nrsL

She comes back with the pitcherand

After she has squeezed the juice into
the pitcher it is discovered there is no Ico

perspiration, is dispatched for some.
"When he gets back with a cake,
which has almost frozen his fingers off,

This is all stirred up with a large iron
spoon and slushed around and shaken
up and looked and contemplated for
a few moments more. It loots like a

The Industrial Crisis in England.
In Burnley 5,795 looms arc idle out of
33,000, andJ307,870ypindIesoutof 900,
000. In the Blackburn district 11,300
looms are idle out of 52,000, and 84,000
spindles uie working on short time, and
s4 8,000 are 'stopped altogether. In the
Chorley district 1,600 looms, owned by
two firms, are working on .short time.
Nearly twenty other firms are running
part of their machinery on short time:
several have stopped theirs entirely. In
the isury district both the woolen and
cotton trades are very depressed. The
average time of working in the woolen
manufactories is only -about four days
outot the week, and 406,000 spindles
and 3,720 looms are working on short
time. In Stockport the prospect, cs
jtecially in the weaving department, is
mid to be almost hopeless. It is com
puted that now only 500,000 spindles
and 300 looms are working, against 1,
195,000 spindles and 7,900 looms five
years ago. In Kochdale, it is said, only
five mills are working full time; 500
houses there are ten&ntless. The Man
chester Guardian gives statistics to show
that the condition of trade in the Ros
aendale district, where the machinery of
the factories is adapted for Indian cotton,
in even worse. Out of 100 mills only 6
(and these are comparatively lBwetufi
cant) are working fall time; thirty-five
are entirely stopped, and the remainder
are only rsimiug on an average 3
days out of the week. An agent of the
UauadttR gevernmeat at Manchester will
start or Manitoba shortly with a party

Sz&gedin.
After rowing through an immense
amount of floating debris, which imped
ed our progress at every moment, we ar
rived at the long black strip of earth,
and found it crowded with thossands of
people in a state of unresting activity.
Men, women and children were busied
bringing up earth as fart as hands and
feet could work. We moored our boats
to the long white piles that have been
driven in to strengthen the embankment,
and stepped aihore with the utmost care,
in order not to displace the loose earth
on that weak construction. On landing,
we found to our astonishment that the
fall on the inner side of the dike
was from 15 to 20 feet, and the greater
part of Szeged in itself was standing on a
level as low, or nearly so. Tbe situa
tion of affairs was appalling. My first
thought vmls the utter hoplessnesa of
keeping back such a sea of waters by
thk narrow strip of earth. The wind
had been steadily rising since the morn
ing, and the waves were already beating
with considerable force against tbe outer
aicte of tie dyke the flood, I must ob
serve, was already five feet above the
original level of the railway embank
ment. The defense that the inhabitants
of Szegedin were now making n in
reality, a second dike, raised on the
substructure of the railway, extending
about four mile in length. It was
touching in the extreme to see these
hundreds of busy workers; such & mot
ley group as are not often found
aide by sidf. master and servant, the
well-dressed citizen, the scantily-clothed
Slav, the poor (woman, and even the
little children all plying to and fro
with their burdens. The men wheeling
loaded banows up the steep incline, the
women struggling up with their market
baskets filled with earth; the strong, the
weak, all alike bent on the ouc object
this struggle for dear life against tboao
whelming water. It wanted but a few
inches, and the overmastering flood
would have its way; still tbe poor people
were not without hope. For 24 hours
the water had not risen; this was a
good sign, and the brave multi
tude took heart of grace, and
hour after hour, day and night, the
steady work went on. I was greatly
impressed by the quietness and order
which was maintained throughout; a
state of things which reflects infinite
credit on the townspeople generally.

Display of Diamond at Saratoga
The most elegant drtsslng at Saratoga
is always sesn at the Saratoga Hotel. At
the other hotels, where less attention is
paid to conventionality, a delightful inde
pendence in the matter of dress is prac
ticed. Ne'crtheless, the most valuable
diamonds seen as yet this season have
been worn by a lady at the Union. I
have heard it cstimat-.'d tint those she has
been seen to wear at one time must be
worth 8 1 co ,000. Apropos of diamonds,
if the young wife of Commodore Garrison
continues to add to her collection, she
will be the Diamond Queen of America."
As I wrote the Herald, she and her hus
band and her sister. Miss Randall, sailed
for Europe a fe weeks ago. At litest
accounts they were in Parts, and Mrs
Garrison and her suter were asking where
the finest diamonds cuold be "purchued.
Last Winter Commodore Girrtson bousbt
for his wife a diamond which I amasscrcd
Tiffiny had said is the largest ever im
ported into this country that is to say,
the largest of the first water. There i an
importer of fine diamonds wto has a
branch of his New Voik store here for
the Summer. He purchased Irom Till
any the sett.ng af the pendmt oat of which
Mrs. Garrison's diamond was taken, and
the smaller of the two stones originally
i$l together. Tbe smaller one weighs
Ii ci its, and the dealer tells me the
larger is about tine iIek the size. One
of Mrs. Garrison's friend?," who by held
it in hi hand, says it weighs 12 carats.

I wrote to the Herald last Summer, was
then believed by thoe who owned dia
rnonds to have cost neailr 85.000 Com
modore Garrison and wife will spend the
Summer at Moulins, whose bth hive
been recommended to him as a restora
tive to his ankles, which are partially par

are also in Europe. As a contrast to tbe
taste for the collection of rare jewel', I

The Balance of Trade
The balance sheet of foreign trade for
the fiscal year ending June 301b, 1S79, is
presented to the public It shows a con
ditioa cf foreign trade a trifle more favor
able than that of tie preceding year.
The exports in 1 S7S were valued at 6So,
70Q.sS6; in 1S79, at oSS1- "T"06
increase is $17,625,665. The im
ports for 1S7S were valued at 438.051,
53 2 ; in 1 S79 imports were valued at $41 5,
792,141. Increase in imports, $S,40,
609. Xtt increase of exports ovr im
ports, $3,885,056. This increase is not
large, bat with so large an excess of ex
ports over imports we are fortunate to
maintain the proportion pi ths preceding
year. It will be seen that our expons
for last year exceeded importi by tbe
large amount cf $252,542,810 This is
exclufire ot ex ports of foreign merchan
dise in either year. Tbe co n move
me l nearly correspond with the racr
chandic In 1S7S we exported coin in
excess of imports to the amount S3.9 X S.
St in 1S79 tbe excess was 54.703.64t.
We thus snld merchandise in excess cf
purchases to the amount of $252,542 SiQ.
and yet fat oat alnvit fire millions of
golJ. The inlerr nee is that ws i at J debts
to the aaiount of tbe excess of export
wiihtbe exceu of coin ci ports added.
There is no mean; cf ascertaining at
present precisely what our present forego
indebtedness is, as it includes not only
naf'onal bond?, but State, municipal,
county and corporation bonds. All these
forms of indebtedness which have a mar
ket value are subject to use in Europe in
pajmtnt of balances due American mer
chants. When this indebtedness is paid,
or neai:y so. expons will fall off Europe
will cease to buy so liberally as at present,
simply for Lack of means to par, it for no
other cause. When bullion most come
in liquidation of balances, three or four
years lite the last would riratn all Europe
of her precious metals. Accident has
favo ed us in the past four years. Oar
crops have been beautiful, while tome in
Europe especially England have been
under the average. But accident cannot
be relied on. These conditions may be
reversed. It is exceedingly fortunate,
however, that we have liad four such years,
in which we have paid neatlv a thousind
n.illions rf foreign indeh'ednets.
Bank .Notes.
Every one who thinks about the mat
ter knows that bank notes arc very care
fully made, but very few are aware of
how much time and labor is spent ujion
them with the purpose of preventing
imitation and forgery. For nearly two
hundred years the Bank of England
notes have been made at one factory, at
Lavcratroke, in Hampshire, and by tho
same family. The pulp is made from
white linen cuttings alone, no rags that
have been worn being permitted to be
used; and even the number of dips into
the pulp tank made by each workman is
registered by a machine, and each sheet
as it is finished k carefully numbered,
and booked to the person to whom it is
passed The notes are printed at the
Bank of England, and by very cleverly
arranged machinery, every note has
some slight diference from ill that have
been printed before, so that no two
Bank of England note ean bo alike,
except by forgery. The number of paid
notes in seven yearn was 94,000,000,
and they fill about 18,000 boxes. If
they were pkced in a pile, one upon an
other, they would make a column one
mile high; and if joined end to end,
would form a ribbon 15,000 milea long.
The value k $15,000,000,000, and
they weigh more than 112 tons. .

The Cabbage.
Joii sjcak to a fine yoang liiy about
cabbages and sac will think that you have
mentioned one of the Iocit things on
earth. Madam, yon are wrong, it it one
of tbe raoit tuefnl articles ot food. Those
ancient nations did not kno food science,
bat they know tbe valae of gooi and
noomhicR things, and thty gave tbern tbe
place of honor which they deserved.
Cabbages were thought of highly by
ancient nilions, and the Egyptians gave
the cabbage tbe honor of letting it pre
cede ail their other dishes; they called a
divine dish. The Greeks and -Romans
bad a great affection for cabbage, and
conceived the idea which I hare myself,
that the rue of cabbage keeps people from
diankenness. I in penoided that the
constant eating of certain vegetables kills
the desire for alrobsltc beverages.
The Greek doctors ascribed all kinds
of virtnet to the cabbage. It was thoajht
to care even paralysu. Books were com
posed to celebrate the virtnes cf the cab
bage, and ladies pirtook oi it soon after
child-birth.
The Romans thought even more of the
cabbage than the Greeks. Tney ascribe
to it the fact that they coald for 6oo years
to do without decors, and Cato actually
maintained that cabbage cnreJ all dis
eases. The ancients knew several iinds ct cab
bage tbe long-leaved green cabbage, the
hard white, so much nsed in Germany (or
"sauerkraut" or fermented cabbage, the
curly snd the red This last seems to
have held the place of honor, and was
first introduced by the Romans, into Ganl,
or France, and then broaght to Great
Britain. Later the green-leaved cabbage
was introduced.
Tbe Greeks were fond of aromatic
seasoning! cf oil, raisin wine, and
almonds. They boiled or stewed tbe
cabbage, and seasoned it with cimmin,
comader seeds, with oil, wine and gravy,
making rich dishes of a vegetable, which
we now boil in water, and reckon among
the plainest food. Something like a re
membrance of cooking cabbage among
tbe old Greeks hu come down to. the
modern Greeks, for they staff cabbage
leaves with dainty mince meat, and then
strew them with gravy. Mrs. Lewis ia
