Three Living Poet .
St. Loni. Glolie-Dciuocrat.
There are still living the three
greatest poets that this age has
produced—Victor Hugo, Alfred
Tennyson and Henry. W Longfel
low. Of the llirec we claim the
last named, not as the greatest of
the three great s!, but as the young
est and freshest, and therefore the
most long-lived. There is not a
line in his poetry that is not young
and fresh. Tennyson lias already
passed the limits assigned to poet
ry, and like bis friend, Carlyle, fall
en into a state of hopeless misan
thropy. But Victor Hugo ranks
above his two compeers in this,
that while he has under full control
all the skill of versification that
Tenuyson employs, he has besides
Longfellow's great gifts of simplic
ity of utterance, all the ta'enls of a
born dramatist and novelist. Lit
os hope t lat the greatest of the
three will not be struck down by
the death blow till he has sung his
sw ,u song in words of sweetness
to which no other poet of this age
dare ;vpirc.
Debilitated Digestion.
HOW VOLTAIRE CURED THE DECAY OF
UIS STOMACH.
Iu the ‘Memoirs of Count Segur*
there is the /allowing auecdoto:
'My mother, the Countess de Segur,
being asked by Voltairo respecting
her health, told him that the most
painful feelings she had arose from
the decay of her stomach aud the
difficulty of finding any kind of ali
meat that it could boat. Voltaire,
by way of consolation, assured her
that he was once for nearly a year
iu the same state, and believed to
be incurable, but that uevoitbeless,
a very simple remedy bad restored
him. It consisted in taking no
other nourishment than yolks of
oggs beaten up with tho flour of
potatoes and water.* Though this
circumstance took plneo ns far back
us titty years ago, aud respected so
extraordinary a person as Voltaire,
it is astonishing how little is known,
and how rarely the remedy lias
been practiced. Its efficacy, hows
ever, in cases of debility, cuu not
bo questioned, aud tho following is
the mode of preparing this valuas
ble article of food as recommended
by Bir John Sinclair:
‘Beat up an egg,in a bowl and
then add six tablespooufuls of cold
water, mixing tho whole well to
gether, then add two tablespooufuls
of farina of potatoes; let it be mixed
throughly with tlm liquor in the
bowl. Then pour in as much boil
ing water as will convert the whole
into a jelly and mix it well. It may
bo taken alone or with tho addition
of a little milk, in c.tso of stoinsc
ie debility or consumptive disor
ders. This dish is light nnd easily
digested, extremely wholesome and
nourishing. Bread or biscuit may
bo taken with it as tho stoumch
gets stronger.
Bernhardt’s Farewell.
Bernhardt sailed to Fiance Wed
nesday, and said of the United
States, as sho went on the ship:
‘Dining my six months* sojourn iu
this country aud Canada 1 have
travelled over 18,000 miles, and
was much surprised everywhere to
find the same type of man, In
Franco it is vary different, for in
nl cost, each department the races
are different, both in manners and
appearance. Your women are very
pretty. Xo one call gainsay that.
Then, again, tiny know how to
dress to perfection, ami with a chic
that, I did not at all expect to see.
It is quits French. Then your
children—how beautiful they are*
nnd so sweetly dressed, too.*
Her opinion of the country is:
‘No foreigner of any perception
whatever coining here for the lir-t
time can liil to be perf ctly aston -
ished at tlm vnstneas of your coun
try. The comforts ot travelling ex
cel those of any part of Fit rope
But the cooking I cannot endure
No, no, that is horrible. When
ever it wrs practicable I remainid
m my ear and had my dinner pre
pared by my cook, who went, every
where with me. The only meats, i
with a few exceptions, that. I at nil
relished were those prepared by
him.*
The Credit System-
A New York paper says that if
Southern planters and farmers wish
to become more prosperous they
should at onco abandon tire perni
cious credit system. In tho cotton
States, particularly, it is a weighty
drawback. As the system is prac
ticed, tho planter gives tho tnrr
chant a lieu on his crops to he
grown, nnd the merchant, beiug
lolly secured, furnishes tho necess
ary supplies and fixes his own
prices. Hbo planter or fnrmsr is
thus wholly at llio mercy of the
merchant, nnd has no redress
against exorbitant rates. A decis
ion has just been rendered by tire
snpreme court of Mississippi which
will afford the farmers of that State
some relief. A merchant who held
a mortgage on the crops of a far
mer forclosed it. The lower court
ullowed i.ts bid against tbc farmer,
although it was shown that the
prices charged were at least double
the cash rule: The supreme court,
on appeal, reversed the decision
and affirm and that the purchaser was
not in a position to decline the
purchase on account of tho prices
charged, and chut he acquiesced in
the prices from an overruling nes
cessity- His extorted assent to
the prices fixed was without con
sideration,and was therefore void.
