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."

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.

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.

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.
