People will eat hot buttered toast, and
give it to children and invalids, who will
tell you that they are quite careful about
diet, and never think of touching pastry.
The difference between tbe two articles
is as follows: Pastry Is flour and water
baked after butter has been rubbed into
it. Buttered toast la flour and water
baked first, and then rubbed thoroughly
with hotter. The difference between
p as try and weO buttered toast Is appar¬
ently the difference between the pro¬
verbial “tweedledum and tweediedee."

the articles of diet which people consider
comparatively freely.—Boston simple Transcript. and indulge In

An Opportunity Chared for Every City
to Advertise Itself,
Americus Recorder.
Maj. W. L. Glessner, editor of the
Recorder, and Commissioner of the
Georgia Bureau of Immigration, is
at present in Ohio,perfecting arrange
mentswitb various fair associations
to make au exhibit of Georgia pro
ducts which he will take North this
fall in his special car, furnished by
the Central of Georgia.
From present indications it would
seem that the scheme promises to be
a good one, and beneficial in many
ways. Therejis no doubt but a good
and judicious display of Georgia pro
ducts, made and-put in an attractive
way, will attract great attention from
tbe farming classes of the North, and
do more, possibly, than anything
else to draw their attention towaid
the Sontb. After they have become
interested by seeing wbat wo can
raise, aDd by n judicious distribution
of paper and pamphlets, it will be
time to get up various home seekers
excursions to Georgia. These ex*
enrsions will be so timed as to give
the visitors an opportunity of visiting
tbe various Expositions and Fairs to
be held this fall, about October 10th.
To make a success of this under¬
taking Maj. Glessner needs the assis
tanco of tho people of tbe whole
State, and thousands of papers and
pamphlets descriptive of different
portions of tbe State. Every promi
nent town and county iu tho State
should have thousands of copies of
papers, descriptive of its town or
county, in ti e car going North. AN
ready several have gotten papers and
pamphlets ready, but nothing like
tbe rmnber necessary have been re¬
ceived. Since this project is costing
the people nothing, the Central Rail
road defraying all its expenses, tbe
different towns and counties should
at least provide the printing neeessa
rj-
Every paper of any importance in
Georgi i should get up au immigra-.
tion issue this fall, and make tho citi
zsns of the town pay for it, and Mr.
Glessner should be provided with a
good number of each, for a better
opportunity to advertise the different
sections of our State will never be
had, as Mr. Glessner will come, per
sonally, into contact with the people
whom we want to come South-
Another thing. Every Agrieul
tural Society in Georgia sbonld hold
itself iD readiness to provide any
particular product that Mr. Glessner
may need from any certain part of the
State. Ibis idea of a society think-,
iag it can get its own particular dig
play carried in the car, is erroneous,
as one display would fill the car, thus
leaving all the balance of tbe Slate
out A strong effort will be made
to get a neat sample of everything
raised, made or dug in Georgsa.
What a noble array it will make
when it is all put together, and how
astonished oar own people will bo at
its magnitude and breadth.
Work has already commenced on

Geu. Grant was noted for horseback
riding, and posed more than mace for an
equestrian statue. Hia favorite horse was
Cincinnati, and was a very noted horse,
chiefly because the president rode him.
President Grant had a large number of
hones in his stable, but, in tbe interest
of truth, it must bo said that any com] unpe-
tent judge of horseflesh would not point
to them with pride. Candor compels me
to say that they were of all sizes, shapes
and conditions, excepting such as tbe
president of the United States should
own. In this connection it might be re¬
marked that tbe horses the sultan of
Turkey presented to Gen. Grant, as well
as those made a gift to James Gordon
Bennett, Arabians.—Washington were anything but a creditable
lot of Letter,
Siberia a Snow Warmed Laud.
Mr. W. M. Williams finds tbe benefi-
cenc^of snow fully manifested in such a
climate as that of Siberia, where a tem¬
perature of 70 or 80 dogs, lie low zero—
or 82 or 40 degs. below the freezing point
of mercury—was recorded last October.
The snow, coming early in tho season
and being an almost absolute non-con¬ effective
ductor of heat, serves as an
clothing for tho soil, which is thus pro¬
tected from so low a minimum tempera¬
ture as it occasionally reaches in England
with tho air at 15 or 20 dogs, over naked
ground. Hence the paradox of Siberian
vegetation, which is so luxuriant in the
summer, when the heat of the toug days
is very intense.—Arkansaw Traveler.
