CHARLESTONS ENTERPRISES.
1 hi* lrin‘ Inwardm-M oftlii* still- of the (Ml Mill.
Charleston, May 28.—The property of
tho Charleston oil mill compnny was s.jl.i
at auction yesterday for 620.100, whieb
Rids the career of that concern. The mill
was started in 1881 with a capital stock of
s.uk),000 for the purpose of manufacturing
Cotton seed oil. For several years it had
a prosperous business, but the rapid lu
cre .we in tlie number of similar establish-
i,u nts in the south aud the rise in the price
of cotton seed caused losses, and in Jan
uary last the company went to protest.
The suie was made under an
assignment for the benefit of the
creditors, and the proceeds will pay less
than 30 per cent, ol the indebtedness,
which aggregates 806.CKH). Tin mill was
I/lirebased hy a Mr. A. Cl. Klaek, of New
York, representing a New York syndicate
of capitalists who will turn their attention
to the business of controlling the cotton
seed oil manufacture in the south. They
Imd purchased a large tract of land here
some time before the present company had
become embarrassed, and had announced
their intention to erect u cotton seed oil
mill. It is said that they will own a con
trolling interest in most of the oil mills
south and west, and will by that means be
able to control the production and price of
oil and the other material produced by
these mills.
THE NEW TERMINAL FACILITIES.
A new departure in the terminal facilities
of C harleston is announced to-day. The
New York and Charleston warehouse and
steam navigation company, composed of
New York capitalists, have executed a
mortgage to the Central Trust company, of
New York, to secure an issue of 1*1,600,000
li per cent, bonds, the object being to se
cure additional terminal facilities for the
South Carolina railway company, of which
the navigation company is an olf shoot.
The company has a splendid water front
on Cooper river, with magnificent ware
houses, wharves, etc., and owns a controll
ing interest in the New York and Charles
ton and the Florida steamship lines, which
comprise the four steamships, City of Co
lumbia nnd City of Atlanta, ply
ing between here and New
York, and the Palatka and Monti-
cello, running to Florida. The tendency of
the trade centre of the city is toward the
northern limits, and the object of the navi
gation company is to move uptown, to
bring the railway to the water and to build
additional wharves and warehouses. The
city council is disposed to object to the
railway running through the streets, but
the railway company at the last session
of the general assembly secured the passage
of an act giving them authority to run
their track through the city, and is dis
posed to disregard the city’s objections.
The council at its last meeting, however,
decided to fight the matter in the courts,
and the police have been instructed to
prevent any attempt to lay a track through
the streets. The tight promises to be an
interesiiiig and exciting one, with the
chances of winning in favor of the railway
company.
QUEER IDEAS OF AN OLD HERO.
N.mr of the AloilcIs Snl,mittctl for the Lutiuun
Monument.
New York Times.
Hartford, Conn.. May 26.—The com
mission on the Israel Putnam monument,
to be erected in Brooklyn, Conn., at a cost
of §10,000, will meet at the state capital on
Monday to examine the twenty-five models
aud drawings which were not fully looked
over at the first meeting last Monday owing
to tile absence of two members. The com
mission refuses to give the public any in
formation regarding the character of the
designs beyond the announcement that
some of them provide for statues, others
for monumental works, and two or three
for equestrian _ figures. Hut there ure re
ports that, while some of the artists and
architects have displayed creditable works,
some of the statues and figures arc remark
able pieces of invention which excite the
most astounding sensation.
The trouble in the whole matter is that,
as to any idea of the face and figure of Put- j
n.iiii, there is nothing to go by except tra
dition. The familiar face of t he man, as if
has been represented in one painting, made |
from a description furnished many years
ago by a person who had seen him and I
now long since dead, represents him as ot :
coarse features, and knowledge of his hub- j
its, which has been handed down in the
community where he lived, warrants too
belief that he was a very rough person, ;
not at all particular as to style in any di- I
lection, yet possessing just these rugged, I
persistent characteristics which gave prom- j
inence to men in the trying period of the I
revolution. Notwithstanding the popular
and probably correct opinion oft ho gen- j
oral appearance of Put mini, a statute has 1
been put in Bushnell park, in this city, !
which gives him the clean cut facial out- j
lines ol u fascinating cavalier and puts him
in the bodily form of an Adonis. Any art I
portraiture like this placed in Brooklyn
would startle the bones in the old village j
cemetery where he lies buried.
But apparently without any knowledge
of the existing figure, or even of the wood
cuts of the man as they appeared in his- j
torical collections of the last generation, !
which conform very closely to the paint- I
ing referred to, some of the designers who I
have sent models to the commission “have
proceeded entirely upon the broadest kind
of idealism, and if the world is ever per
mitted to see tliese curiosities in art they
will be at once classed umong the wonders
of an ingenious age. There is said to be
one statue in the collection which embel
lishes the frontispiece of the old hero with i
corkscrew-shaped curls on each side of his !
forehead, aud anot her disposal of the figure
gives to the whole design a striking resem- j
blanee to a commonly seen advertising cut ;
of a half Indian, half Quaker apostle of ]
patent medicine. Another model is des- I
cribed as having evidently been made
from a photograph of the jack of clubs.
Btili another, and this equestrian places |
Putnam on an animal whose head and
tail, like church spires, point upward,
and the appearance of which recalls Con
sul General Waller’s stump speech oratory
several years ago, when he predicted a
glorious party triumph and compared it
to a buck emerging trom the woods “with
his antlers and his tail in the air shouting
victory.” But these are the exceptions in
the collection, and being so afford the
only excuse for any reference to them, as
all the rest are considered by the com
mission too good to be seen or described.
Possibly, however, after a choice lias been
made eitheir from the design submitted or
from a combination of several of them the
whole collection will be thrown open to
public inspection.
tin- speaker of the house, respectively,from
dilierent political parties, the secretaries of
war and the navy; two army and two navy
officers appointed by the president; nine
citizens also so appointed, with the con
sent of the senate, and salaried. There is
to lie .a salaried treasurer appointed by the
president and confirmed by the senate,
while senators and representatives whose
terms of office may expire are to continue
to receive their pay as members of con
gress until their successors: on the board
are appointed.
This hoard is to put into actual operation
any plans they may choose for the forts,
floating batteries, torpedoes, guns, ammu
nition. boats, vessels, and any kind and
class of devices and appliances for making
war by land or sea. ft may use the present
government workshops or erect oli ers, or
contract with private companies, provided
these are formed under ouv laws, with the
majority of our citizens as directors, and
with citizens holding the majority of stock,
it may also carry on any sort "of experi
ments and tests, hold its proceedings a s, -
cret. swear its members to secrecy and
puiiis’i other pens us b,v a line nut exceed
ing >10,000, or imprisonment up to two
years, tor unlawfully revolting their .se
crets cr maliciously seeking to induce any
body to reveal them.
Finally, the ooard is to continue in exis
tence three years, making annual reports
through tin, president to congress, divid
ing its work into two groups, one for the
army and the other for the navy, an officer
being detailed tor each by the secretary of
war and navy department respectively.' it
appoints and pays its own officers and em
ployes, and need not disclose to the treasu
ry the purpose of its drafts, and in disputes
with tin* treasury ns to the sufficiency of
vouchers or the legality of expenditures
tlie president of United States in to be tl.<
arbiter, it may also suggest recommenda
tions to the president ns to the use of
money previously appropriated for forts,
ship-;, guns, or munitions and unexpended
al the time this act takes effect; and these
recommendations shall have the force of
law.
Taken as a whole, this bold and compre
hensive measure doubtless excites much
more disfavor than approval among those
who have carefully studied it. Its great
merit is in rising to a full appreciation of
the important subject with which it is con
cerned, demanding for it as liberal appro
priations as are sought for increases of pen
sions, arrears of pensions and equalizations
of bounties. But in the view of many per
sons it lodges too absolute a power for the
disposition of an enormous sum in the
hands of individuals, expressly relieved
from the control of congress, except so far
as that control might be resumed on re
ceiving the annual reports.
Furthermore, its methods read like those
of war time instead of a time of peace, and
I he extra provisions for seeretiveness seem
to belong rather to European needs than
to ours. Again, many of Hie persons thus
selected to constitute the board, however
imposing as figureheads, would be practi
cally without knowledge or experience in
these peculiar duties, and besides would
have a full round of entirely different of
ficial duties to perform. They would either
lend the influence of their names to a few
competent specialists, or lie a drag on the
proceedings. Then the amount of the
work dumped on the board is excessive.
It can better be divided under different
acts, ships constituting a different matter
from forts, and so on.
The truth is that we have had enough
boards and commissions of inquiry and
experiment. The recommendations of
half a dozen of the most recent of them
are practically the same, and what is now
wanted is prompt, thorough and intelli
gent, well-guarded and decisive and liberal
action by congress on these specific rec
ommendations, modified as wise debate
may suggest.
PROPERTIES OF VEGETABLES.

Good Housekeeping.
There is no reason why every house
keeper and cook should not have a knowl
edge of the clieinislry of cooking and of
the healthl'iiliiess of different, articles of
food. At this particular season of the year
nature bountifully supplies us with much
that is cooling in the way of vegetables,
which arc not only delicious articles of
food, biit are really health-preserving, for
often a slight indisposition of children or
elder persons can be readily cured by
the free use of these culinary remedies.
Spinach has a direct effect upon com
plaints of tlie kidneys: tlie common dan
delion, used as greens, is excellent for tiie
same trouble; asparagus purities the blood:
celery acts admirably on the nervous sys
tem, and is a cure for rheumatism and neu
ralgia; tomatoes act upon the liver; beets
and turnips are excellent appetizers, let
tuce and cucumbers are cooling in their
effects upon the system; beans are a very
nutritious and strengthening vegetable,
while onions, garlic, leeks, chives anu
shallots, all of which are similar, possess
medical virtues of a marked
character stimulating the circu
latory system, and the con
sequent increase of the saliva and the gas
tric juice promoting digestion. Red onions
are ail excellent diuretic, and the white
ones are recommended to be eaten raw us
a remedy for insomnia. They arc tonic
and nutritious. A soup made from onions
is regarded by the French as an excellent
restorative in debility of tile digestive
organs. We might go through the entire
lot aud find each vegetable possessing its
special mission of cure, and it will be plain
to every housekeeper that a vegetable diet
should tie partly adopted at this
period of the year, and will prove
of great advantage to the health of the
family. With vegetables, as with every
thing else, much depends upon the cook
ing and tnc care and preparation before
hand. Washing in several waters is ab
solutely necessary to prepare nearly all
kinds of green vegetables for tlie table,
and great care must be given examining
spinach, lettuce, greens and cauliflower,
as often very minute insects arc lurking
in or under the leaves of these, it will
be found a good plan to wash them in
weak salt and water, after which they
should lie put in ice water for a few min
utes to prevent their becoming tough and
wilted.

which will lie able to produce at so much
lower figures than in this state, where the
raw materials are limited long distam.es
and the rates of I'reignt are high, is not
regarded with much favor by those manu
facturers of pig iron in Peiiiisyhania w nose
plants arc not favorably located. They
state that the production must to a great
extent find its way north and force out
of the market considerable of tlie
home production. The projectors
of the new Alabama furnaces, however,
state that the alarm is groundless, as the
demands of tlie south and southwest for
iron in 1687 will be such as to absorb the
production of all the iron that is made in
Alabama. They report that railroads,
bridges and other {enterprises, many of
them of a very extensive character, arc in
contemplation for 1867,and that the amount
of iron which will be absorbed by these
will he enormous. A number of Philadel
phia and New York capitalists will leave
lieie next mouth for Alabama to examine
the situation for locating iron establish
ments, aud to study the advantages this
field has over other to iron producers.

Louisville, Kv., May GO.- A wonderful
freak of nature, in the person of Luther L.
Bloati, of Marengo, Crawford county, Inti.,
was presented yesterday to the students at
the Hospital College i f Medicine, on East
Uin-stnut street. Mr. SJoaii is 24 years of
age. hut is only thirty-one inches tall,
and weighs eighty-two pounds. His
deformity lies entirely in he legs and
feet, which together are not more
than four inches long. Tlit feet lire only
partially developed, and are turned hack
wards ami downwards, cm npeiliiig him to
ivaik on wlint is usually tin- upper .portion
of the pedal extremities, in tr initial
language the deformity is known as .alipe-e

body is perfectly doAi loped, with the ex
ception of I.is fingers, winch have only!
one joint each.
He is the sod of W. IT. 3 -ife:i. n farmer!

classes on the subject of “freaksof nature. 1 ' |
Mr. Sloan will be introduc'd to lin- im-it'
showman, Barnum, to-day, with the hope j
of gelling an engagement.
Mr, Sloan has grown a h a y stac-iie,
and is n bright-looking young man. lie is
w.-ll re.id, and last year graduated at the j
Marengo High school. In tlie winter!
time In- is a great trapper and ininicr. lie
shoots on horseback generally, md says
tlnd he is a dead shot. Short and small as I
he is, it is an easy matter for him to mount
a liorue. This he does by climbing up the |
leg and catching hold of the mane.
Usually Mr. Sloan walks with tin- aid ot j
small crutches, but he is aide to get along j
without their aid. He usually wears a sort '
of short waist dress and moccuasins of ids |
own make. Tile students find him an en-I

“Early in the fourteenth century,” said
Mr. Gus Nunning, “a good king, with a
gn it In-ad, reigned over Bavaria. Being
a monarch of liberal education, he of
course knew wlmt young men’s fancy
lightly turned to ill the spring; but he saw
tlie fathers nnd grandfathers and uncles of
tlie young men yearned for something
stronger and more exhilarating than mere
love. Therefore he set- tlie royal brewer
to work one New Year's day concocting a
beer that would knock an honest Bavarian
away into BellvvartzlmrgBonderliausen,and
not half try. The man of hops took kindly
to tiie task, and when Easter Monday came
in- had ready a score of hogsheads of dark
sweet beer. The royal major domo filled a
beautiful silver growler that held about a
quart and presented it to liis majesty to
sample. The monarch drank the flagon,
set it down, frowned and said the beer was
too sweet and had ".o fire in it. ' J
Before the royal ax swinger could puniMi
the brewer by trimming oil' 11is head tie-
new finer began to get m its tine work and |
have fun with the king. He whooped i
three new and startling whoopsmerformed j
a beautiful song uitdMar.oe'on the throne,
and wound up by clasping the 'brewer In
his heart and calling him brother. When
tin: king was winding wet towels around
his head the first morning, some. ona.asked
him what the beer should be caned. “Bim-
ilii /ilkloin !” he exclaimed, “we will call it
bock beer, for merry, come up, my head
feels as if it had cross'countered a streetcar
barn he goat.”
“Ever since those good old days hock
beer has been broached every Easier Mon
day.” The young map was asked why tin
brew was so much stronger. “Because it
had more hops and malt. That is all t he
secret-. It is a tradition among beer drink-
era that hock should be dark. That is ail
nonsense. It can be light in color and vet
strong enough to suit anybody.- -St. Joseph

! As a territory, Utah is subject tothena-
I tioiial government, its laws and its oltierrs.
I It would be folly for the nation, after con
fessing its inability to suppress polygamy
in Utah by national law, lo transform the
! territory into a .‘■•tale with the expectation
! that a constitutional ann-ndim nt would
, supply a complete remedy for the evils
i which the Jaws have failed to suppress.

This lady had been married thirteen
year.*, and during at least o.*e-half of that,
lime iiad been a sufferer from the effects of
Leucorr/nea or Whites and its many at
tendants. She was m .oh reduced in
strength and flesh, being unable to take
any active exercise. Simmons’ Iron Cor
dial was at last given a careful trial, and an
' improvement was noted from the start.
I She is now a perfectly healthy woman,
and owes her restoration to this remedy.
