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. - T . he Moset QcKSTioN.-The Chicago ' - il( ' niaaes this hit: “Hackett, as alstoff ' was an original inflationist.

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..
