Friday Morning', August 3, 1877.
CAREY W. STYLES Editor.
[“BUT A LITTLE LOT.
‘Yes, that’s very pretty, on paper,
especialy with another line added, for
instance:
And on it bnild a little cot,
and going a little further in the realm
of fancy, we may add:
And to it bring your little Dot,
And in it rock year little Trot.
Jiut when you come down to business
and ask mechanics and workingmen to
‘buy your little lots,’ they’ll answer
sometlAng after this style:
I rather guess not,
and if you ask them why, they will tell
you:
Odco I had a little lot.
Well, John, what’s the reason you
haven't got it now ? Have you sold
your lot? And he will reply:
The Sheriff, he has got
My little cot and lot.
Inquiry into the mechanic’s history
will unfold a tale about as follows:
‘When I came out of the war and
got settled down at home, I found
plenty of work and good wages, so that
I could save something every week.
This money I put in the savings bank
with that I saved during the war, and
in a little while I found there was
enough to
“Buy a little lot.
‘I was very happy to think I could
buy a lot. I selected a pretty spot,
and as soon as I got that and paid the
money down for it, I said, now I have
the lot, and on it I will try to
Build a little cot.
‘I went to my work every day happy
as a king, thinking all the time about
my little house, and what a pretty
home Mary and I would have for the
children—our own,home, too.
‘Pretty soon I had some more money
in the savings bank, and a gentleman
who knew me, came and offered to
build a house and take a mortgage on
it. I said, ‘I can pay you something
that I have in the bank, and then you
can build me a little house and take
your mortgage ’ I was getting good
wages, and every week Mary and I
saved all we could to pay on the house,
so that pretty soon we should own it
all ourselves.
‘I was never so happy and Mary
never was so kind and loving to me
before, and our children were growing
up in school through the week and
went to church on Sunday, and every
body said, ‘What nice children you
have, John;’ and I said ‘yes, they are
very good children; as fine as any man
has.’
‘The house was furnished and we
got moved in and settled down, and it
was our home, all paid for but a thou
sand dollars, and it would take just
three years to pay that off, if no great
trouble should overtake us. I was get
ting three dollars and a half a day then
at my trade, and working six days in
the week. I saved live dollars every
week of tho world, and lived well, too,
and all of us were nicely clothed and
could go on an excursion for a day
once in a while.£ I was getting along
splendidly. I had paid two thousand
on my house and lot which I agreed to
pay three thousand for.
‘Then business got dull and we had
work only half the time, and theu our
wages were cut down, and work and
wages have both gone down ever since
1874, until now 1 havo but little of
either. Ido well to get six dollars for
a whole week’s work; and with meat,
Hour and potatoes higher than when
I got twenty-live dollars a week, God
help us, for I dont know wbat to do.
One year ago the Sheriff sold my
house, and it brought only the mort
gage, so that I lost the two thousand
I had paid, besides half as mueh more
for interest and taxes. Now I have
no home: I am ragged and discouraged,
and Mary is ragged, and so are the
children. They can’t go to school on
week days or Sunday, and last night
the boss said the factory would close
next week.
‘I kuow of no way to live except I
go to the poor house, and they tell me
that was tilled long ago. I will have
to starve or beg. I can’t beg at home,
and I’ll start on a tramp. It’s very
hard, and I’d like to know why a man
who has earned money and saved it,
aud has been a sober, industrious man,
can neither keep what he has got, nor
find work to keep his family from star
ving.
‘That’s why I don’t want any little
lot, I’ve had one once, and they took
it from me. I want no more, and
there are dozens of my neighbors and
shopmates who will tell you just such
a story, and give you the same answer
that I give you.
‘No, I (lou’t want any little lot.’
Next week we will continue this sub
ject and tell John and Mary how they
were robbed of their house, and who
did it. John is right—he wants no
little lot.
Georgia and the Race.
Ex-Governor Jenkins knew the feel
ing and the purpose of his people when
he spoke the following sentence, at the
opening of the Convention, and would
not question either by a ‘caution
against class legislation or discrimina
tion against our citizens of African de
scent.’ We commend his remarks and
the action of the Convention to the
people of the North who have waved
the ensanguined garment, and who
have preached the doctrine of death to
the negro in the supremacy of the
Democracy. Said Mr. Jenkins:
‘I utter no caution against class leg
islation or discrimination against our
citizens of African descent. I feel a
perfect assurance that there is no
member of this body who would pro
pose such action, and if there was, he
would soon find himself without a fol
lowing. That portion of our popula
tion are coming to see, and will soon
realize, that those who once occupied
a different relation to them, fully rec
ognize the change that has elevated
their civil status, and are in truth their
best friends.’ [Applause.]
*■♦
A man of genius never seeks ap
plause; while the little minds of those
who have but a small portion of intel
lect, try by their vanity and conceited
boastings to build upon the mental
resources of others their own fame
aud reputation. However, it is for
the best, for they soon fall to their
proper level—once they reach it, they
never rise.
EGGS.
Their Value as an Article or Diet.
There is no article of food more
wholesome and nutrious than that
supplied by eggs. There is a differ
ence iu their flavor and quality owing
to the difference of the diet of the
birds; yet there are no eggs of winged
creatures which are unfit for nourish
ing the human body. Their chemical
composition is the same, for the
white and yelk are almost invariably
present; and these consist, in the first
place, of albumen and water. Eggs
require for digestion as much time as
mutton that is, from three to four
hours. They are most readily diges
ted when boiled until the white be
comes partially consolidated.
An ordinary hen’s egg weighs from
one and a half to two ounces; a dock’s
egg from two to throe ounces; the
egg from the sea-gull and the turkey
from three to four ounces, and the egg
of the goose from four to six ounces
The solid matter and the oil in the
duck's egg exceed those in a hen’s egg
by about one fourth. According to
Dr. Edward Smith, in his treatise on
‘Foods,’ an egg weighing an ounce
and three quarsters consists of 120
grains of carborn and 18| grains of
nitrogen, or 15.25 per cent, of carbon
and 2 per cent, of nitrogen.
A writer in the Scientific Farmer
estimates that the value of one pound
of eggs as food for sustaining the act
ive forces of the body is to the value of
one pound of lean beef as 1,584 to BGO.
Asa flesh producer one pound of eggs
is about equal to a pound of beef.
A hen may be calculated to consume
one bushel of corn yearly, and to lay
twelve dozen or eighteen pounds of
eggs. This is equivalent to saying
that three and one-tenth pounds of
corn will produce, when fed to a hen
one pound of eggs. A pound of pork,
on the contrary, requires about five
and one-third pounds of corn for its
production. When eggs are twenty
four cents a dozen and pork at ten
cents a pound, we have a bushel of
corn fed producing two dollars and
eighty-eight cents worth of eggs and
one dollar and five cents of pork.
Judging from these facts, eggs must
be economical in their production and
in their eating, and especially fitted
for the laboring man in replacing
meat.
PISCICULTURE IN GEORGIA.
The Savannah News has compiled
valuable information on this subject.
It says. The stocking of the different
streams of the country with shad is
likely to prove of great benefit to the
inhabitants of those localities where
this delicious fish has heretofore been
comparatively unknown, and we are
glad to see that Georgia is not beiDg
neglected in the general distribution.
Mr. Charles D. Griswold, in the em
employ of the United States Fish
Commit sion, with his assistant, Mr.
Carl Sherman, has recently visited
Columbus, and placed fifty thousand
young shad in the Chattahoochee river
at the place, and also deposited the
same number in that stream at West
Point.
These gentlemen loft Holyoke, Mas
sachusetts, on the Connecticut river,
on Friday last, at which place the Fish
Commission are engaged in hatching
out shad for tho purpose designated.
The process of this hatching will prove
interesting to sportsmen generally,and
lovers of this favorite species of the
finny tribe in particular. It is thus
described:
The spawn from five female shad,
averaging about twenty thousand eggs
each, is placed in a pan about one
fourth lilled with water. The eggs are
then impregnated by artificial means,
and in about twenty minutes swell
from the size of a grass Beed to that of
a small pea; they are then placed in
another vessel containing pure water
aud washed, when they become quite
hard. When brought to this condition,
they are placed in hatching boxes,
where they are kept from three to six
days, according to the temperature of
the water. About seventy degrees will
hatch the eggs out in three days, and
this is the temperature usually desired.
Upon being hatched the young fish are
provided with a natural supply of
nourishment which lasts about three
days, after whiah time they are left to
take care of themselves.
It is a curious fact that in this mat
ter of hatching shad, science has prov
en superior to nature. Nature hatches
only about one fish in a thousand that
livts more than three days, while
science produces ninety per cent,
which live long enough to be planted.
This may be accounted for by the the
ory that eels and other fish follow the
parent shad as it goes to its spawning
place, aud devour a greater proportion
of the eggs which are deposited.
It has never been ascertained upon
what to feed the youug shad, and un
less they are deposited in large bodies
of water, within eight days after being
hatched, they will starve to death.
When so deposited, however they feed
on something yet undiscovered by
science.
In transporting the shad recently
placed in the Chattahoochee to their
points of destiflation, they were put in
eighteen gallon cans, and the water in
these had to be changed every two
hours. It is calculated that in about
three years that stream will be plenti
fully stocked with the fish, aud the
people living in its vicinity can then
enjoy bountiful feasts uponfre-ih shad,
a luxury they have, to great extent
heretofore, been uufamiliar with. We
hope the experiment of pisciculture in
Georgia will there, and everywhere it
is attempted, prove a decided success.
A Cleveland sportsman shot seven
times at a decoy in Detroit river be
fore he could kill it. Some of these
wooden ducks are hard birds to lay
out.

Its effects are as wonderful and
as satisfactory as ever.
It restores gray or faded hair to
its youthful color.
It removes all eruptions, itching
and dandruff. It gives the head a
cooling, soothing sensation of great
comfort, and the scalp by its use
becomes white and clean.
By its tonic properties it restores
the capillary glands to their normal
