Snd you, who probably never saw the m
,, J gc hool-house) what we want? Wo
mr l h'raneaise worth a cent. If we
attempt it and get some of those apostro-
Sed words tangled up in our nose,
you’ll laugh at us. So we are compelled to
Joint our finger at the word and say.
“H fiiTp waiter bring us some of this, lhe
Frenchman from Kentucky follows the
lino of our finger and reads: Cotelettes
LMruce J Agneau a U Ihxree de Navels.
“V a Ur ies so. boss, responds the waiter
if he’read French on the run. Then
here’s another French dish: “Waiter bring
„s some of this Rogniona de veau au Madere);
and someof this (Crevellea de veau au beam
' , r and a small quantity of this (Amou
r(m d’ Agneau a' la Mattre d’hotel), and
while you are out jtst bring us a bit of this
, RawJlU de veau, mu Petit Oignona), and,
waiter don’t you forget this (Groa doble).
Awav aues the waiter kitchenward, while
we settle down to await his return with
strange misgivings at heart. As you didn t
see what we pointed to, you suppose, of
course, that our intentions aro to surprise
you. You aro right-you are very right. It
is a surprise to you—and also to us. That
long-sounding, double-headed French dish
is simply fried mutton and turnips. Wah !
Take this cotellettea de Portruce d’Agneau a
la Puree de Navels away. Great guns of
Gibraltar, whence arises that odor of
onions? The Pdita Oignona is It? The
devil take the Petita Oignona. Here! Waiter!
You! What is this? Gras Doble? Gras
jh be ! It’s tripe and onions. Take
it away! Take it away! Take everything
away, and bring us some food in English.
Now, we do not altogether approve
the apparent tnltag with. profanity
which permeates the above extract
but we do most cordially endorse its
bottom facts. And here are other re
flections, from the same source, which
bring the case down to hard-pan, with
a sincerity at once humorous and
veracious: “The steward who writes
these Frencheries does not understand
what they mean. Neither does the
printer who prints them. Much less
does the cook who cooks by them.
Nor does the waiter who brings them
to you. And we are positive that no
sensible man who eats them would ia
quire a second time what they were.
Nobody would guess that Cotelettes de
Portruce d’ Agneau ala Puree de Navets
meant mutton and turnips, or that
Gras do lie was the scientific term for
tripe aud onions. Even though you
are a graduate of a French university,
we'll wager our best house and lot
against one of Eli Perkins’ worst jokes
that you wouldn’t recognize Gras doble
on sight were you to meet him on the
street. And if Gras doble were to visit
Franco to-morrow, we venture to say
there would not be one man in Paris
who would know him. Then why
should we be so persecuted by our
American cooks ? Why be compelled
to carry a French dictionary in one’s
pocket simply to translate what one
eats at hotels and make it intelligible
to the stomach ?”
For the benefit, then, of the landlord
and his numerous guests, and in the
interest of true reform, let Mr. Chat
field, Mr. Brown and all other field
marshals of our soon-to-be-reopened
grand hotel, command that nothing
but pure American lingo shall adorn
their “Williams de Faro,” so-called.
We venture to say that our circum
jacent neighbors in Georgia and South
Carolina will rejoice thereat; so will
the hosts of Northern men and women
who are about to visit this region; and
so will the dexterous Ethiopian wait
ers. Here is a chance to inaugurate a
sweeping aud consummate reform, and
we hope to herald it as another triumph
of American genius.
Broken Heart.— According to Miss
Kate 1 ield, Robertson, the dramatic
author, died of critics. In other words,
he was, like Keats, “snuffed out by an
article. Poor fellow! He ought to
have become a “trained journalist” be
fore essaying dramatic authorship.
hen Charles Lamb failed as a play
wright, he consoled himself thus:
“Hang the world! I’ll write for an
tiquitij!" Probably if Robertson had
had a tough heart he would have sur
vived to be spoiled by too much flat
tery. But the mind is a “flery par
ticle,’ 1 and some men, when abused
die, while others, like Byron, develop
into giants. It is the solid-hearted
pine that resists the storm for cerftu
nes. The weak-hearted tree falls prone
before the first serious blast.

The Business Outlook—Cheer Up.
The financial ordeal of November
4th, in Augusta, has been passed with
extraordinary good fortune, consider
ing the abnormal condition of the
times. There have been but few
lapses, and those of no great conse
quence. Even the bank officers are
surprised at the promptitude of mer
chants and planters in meeting their
obligations. This is a source of great
pride for our city and congratulation
for our mercantile community. It
should, and doubtless will, have the
effect of cheering the despondeut and
encouraging the prosperous to greater
efforts. There should be a braver
tone established in all circles. Confi
dence may now take the place of ap
prehension, and the wheels of indus
try, lagging up to this time in many
departments, should be put in motion.
Certainly no branch of commerce
has had a more unpromising look, of
late, than manufactures. But, even in
this branch of business, the skies have
brightened, and we are told, by an ex
pert, that the prospect is most flatter
ing. Take the Augusta Factory, for
example. Very recently this great in
stitution has filled a large order of
goods for thelAfrican market, amount
ing to $125,000, and has just received
another from South America. It is
true the profit is small, but it is a pro
fit, and not, like so many operations
of Northern mills, a loss. This mill,
too, instead of having idle hands, or
unsold stocks on hand, has been worked
close up, and the demands from abroad,
as well as at home, are ahead of its
production. We understand from one
of the head men of the factory that
the prospect in this respect is the best
he has known for two years; and we
are fain to believe that all other kinds
of business will henceforth become
more brisk and lucrative.
From all we can gather, no North
ern cotton factory can make the same
showing, and it would seem that the
South, all things considered, is really
meeting the crisis in finance infinitely
better than the East or West.
There is another Important item con
nected with the recent operations of
the Augusta Factory, and that is the
drawing of money from abroad. This
is a stupendous advance upon our re
cent policy, and, when generally in
augurated, will make this section one
of the richest and most desirable, as it
is naturally the most favored.
Asa collateral issue, It may be re
marked that the enlargement of the
canal has contributed wonderfully to
the success of our factory. Had it not
been increased in power and capacity,
there would not have been water
enough to run the half of one mill.
We think the day is not distant when
the larger part of the mill sites on the
canal will be occupied or sought for.
Attention has been drawn here, and the
advantages of the South as a manufac
turing country, over the East, are well
known. Our city has now a celebrity
in the States beyond us and, before
many years, either from New England,
the Border, or Europe, capital will flow
hither in abundance. Where this capi
tal shall come from we have little care,
but it Is a matter of rejoicing for us to
know that the future need not be
dark unless we morbidly chooso to
make it so.
We know for certain that the money
lenders of Great Britain have cast long
ing eyes on the Mississippi Valley for
investment, and it will not require a
great deal of enterprise on our part to
fix their attention upon Augusta. Col.
John W. Forney, who is now in Eu
rope, declares that the directors of va3t
moneyed corporations “have fixed upon
the United States as, after all, the
safest place in which to invest British
capital, and the explosion in regard to
Turkish securities has given extraordi
nary emphasis to their mission. It is
estimated that at a moderate calcula
tion there are now in London from
§600,000,000 to $800,000,000 in gold
upon which literally no interest is paid,
and which needs only assurance of se
curity to induce its investment at mod
erate rates. Deputations are to be sent
out by the society to examine and re
port upon the resources of the entire
Mississippi Valley duriDg the summer
and autumn of 1876.” Our city au
thorities and merchants should en
deavor to make it worth the while of
such deputations to understand that
the Mississippi Valley is not the only
possible El Dorado in the South. We
believe that Augusta is quite as attract
ive, if not more so. We believe that we
can offer ah interest on their idle capi
tal greater than the far Southwest. To
this end, we have striven to advance
the credit of this community and not
beat it down. For this reason we strive,
with pluck and some enthusiasm, to
Inspire confidence and not despair.
Let our people then cultivate a cheer
ful spirit, practice economy, if neces
sary, but not parsimony. Let them
have faith in their city, its government
and its future. Let us all, as one man,
past differences forgotten or held in
abeyance, work unceasingly for our
common good,and,above all, hold to the
belief, which we think well established,
that our prospects are not gloomy, but
bright, and that, if we are worthy of a
happy destiny and equal to its de
mands upon our fortitude, patience and
just pride, we shall ere long reap an
abundant harvest.
The Backbone of France. —The
French vintage is of enormous value.
No lees than 3,000,000 of acres are
planted in vines, yielding 12,000,000
tons of grapes, and affording employ
ment to 6,000,000 persons. The money
product of the wine crop will astonish
cotton planters. It is 8100,000,000. The
difference in profit also, as compared
with cotton, is enormously on the side
of the French. A correspondent of
the London Times, writing of this wine
region, aptly says that France has in
her vineyards treasures far more vast
and enduring than the gold mines of
California or Australia—treasures be
side the value of which the five mil
liards of the German indemnity sink
into insignificance. m
A Good Slap.— Noting the steady de
cline of the Radical tidal-wave, the
World chuckles thus : “We regret to
say that the enthusiasm of some of the
Republican telegraph operators got the
better of their duty and led them to
make statements for which they are
severely punished this morning. As
for the Republican newspapers, they
should put on sack-cloth and omit their
publications for one calendar week.”
Poos Singer.— A gentleman writes to the
Cincinnati Gazeete that the late I. M. Sing
er was not a model of everything that is
honorable, generous and just. He charges
Mr. Singer with embezzlement and fraud
in the early days when he was a peddler.
Principles and potatoes, you know.
When he was poor and hungry, the
meanness of his nature cropped out.
When his breakfast was secured, and
dipner, too, he became possibly honest.
Prospective Policy. —The reliable
Washington correspondent of the Bal
timore Sun says : “Measures have al
ready been inaugurated looking to a
bold aggressive policy immediately on
the assembling of Congress. The Presi
dent will take such ground in his mes
sage as regards'the currency and other
important questions as will call for an
expression of opinion from the House.
The Kepublican majority in the Senate,
led by such astute politicians as Ed
munds, Conklinq and others, will be
continually sending bills and resolu
tions to the House designed to entrap
it into the declaration of principles and
policies repugnant to the people at
large. The changed prospect of the
Democratic party will, however, have
the effect to put the House on its good
behavior, and the Conservative, cool
headed men among the Democrats will
come to the front and shape the policy
of that body. The Bepublicans and the
Democrats will now confront each
other in the national arena with forces
and advantages pretty nearly equal.
Upon the wisdom and discretion which
mark the action of the House now de
pends, to a great degree, Democratic
success or failure twelve months hence.
The battle between the two Houses of
Congress will rage with vigor and a
tenacity which could not have been ex
cited had the Republicans again met
the defeats of last year.”
Guibord. — The Courier-Journal makes
this remark: “It is said that the show
man, Barnum, has purchased the bones
of Guibord from the Institut Canadien
for SIOO,OOO, with the design of exhib
iting them to a curious public. If so,
the Institut has made a good bargain,
and better drop the burial of the
fictitious bones which they are alleged
to have placed in the coffin.”
Too Thin. —The Radical papers are
trying to make it appear that Jeffer
son Davis will be sent to the United
States Senate from Mississippi. This
is mere bosh. Mr. Davis is not eligi
ble, by reason of disfranchisement, and
besides, has had his residence in Ten
nessee for a number of years past.
Mississippi will be represented in the
Senate by L. Q. C. Lamar.
Walker.— lt is said that Amasa Wal
ker, who died recently, was encourag
ed and helped by his wife, a woman
of great strength and sweetness of
character, to whom much of the good
work he did so well is due. Her death
hastened his. It is very pleasant to
read of such perfect unions, in this
world of matrimonial discord.
Victoria. —The British Queen has
now 27 grand-children, 24 of whom are
alive. The only child of Queen Vic
toria who does not keep up the reputa
tion of the family fecundity is Princess
Louise, who married the Marquis of
Lorne.
That Mare. —Some son of Belial
has stolen Grant’s Vicksburg mare.
The negro purchaser sold her to a man
named Hatch for exhibition, and now
she has gone no one but the thief knows
whither..
