COJfCERXISG PIES.

A writer in All the Year Hound prattles of pies: Two pies loom large out of the dimness of our past experience. They were, and will always be, historical pies to us. The first of these was a goose pie it came either from Yorkshire or Durham. It was a Titanic pic. It was beautiful to look at, and its seasoning was inspiration. It was a huge tomb of a pie, with brown figures exquisite in design (so ran our

pied a little fellow with a red shirt boyish mind) as the frieze of^ the Eland old straw hat, dangling a line gin marbles. On the raised lid baked

over the side of a boat. "Hello, boy," said one of them, "what are you doing?" "FishinV came back the answer. "Well, of course," said the gentleman, "but what do you centric folds, lay catch?" Here the boy became inndignaut at so much questioning, and replied, "Fish, you fool, what do you suppose "Did you ever see an elephant's skin?" inquired a teacher of an infant class. "I have," shouted a

the class. "Where?" asked the teacher. "On the elephant,'/s^aid the boy, laughing.

Sometimes this sort of wit degenerates or rises, as the case may be, into punning, as when Flora pointed pensively to the heavy masses of louds in the sky, saying, "I wonder here those clouds are going," and her brother replied, "I think they arc with a going to thunder." Also in the fol

sailor who had suffered shipwreck dialogue "Hello there, how and, as she took great pleasure in the yQ^ sell wood V" "®y the cord." analyzation of feelings and emotions, ujioW Jong has it been cut "Four asked him compasionatcly, "IIow did ceet"

llowers and fruit were displayed, and the brownest liower of the nosegay served as a handle to open the pie. Within, coiled up and sleeping in conall the eatable animals of Noalfs ark so it seemed to our hungry and excited vision. Dataller day we came upon fresh strata, differing in tint and taste, yet all imbedded in a transparent jell}', which only ironius could have fused into

year old from the foot of such a mould. hat a conglomcrate it was. The mere catalogue of the contents of that pie would be a small volume. It was an edible Chinese puzzle. There were, first and foremost, two young twin green geese (removed in the very April time of their sweet youth,) one innocent tucked inside the other—folded, as it were, in the arms of his bigger brother—and both embalmed in salt, pepper, mace, allspice, and an ambery agglutination of jelly. They were boneless for so the learned embalmers had illed it. Then, in a snug and stately corncr lay a savory turkey, brooding over a duck, afoMi, and a small covey of patridges, mingling and interchanging flavors. After a whole month's devotion to this pie, breaking into a bin of forcemeat with fine flavor of fresh herbs, we dug out (after much labor and research) the rosy tongue of some unknown animal. Somewhat later, a hare reward ed our exertions, hidden in a retired nook where it had secreted itself with the well-known cunning of that timid but delicious creature. That pie was as full of plesant and strange surprises as California's island M'as full of "sweet sounds" that gave delight and harmed not.

Tlie South and the Colored Vote. The desperation with which the Southern Democracy is trying to secure the negro A'ote is shown by a catechism published in the Richmond inlit/. The following are a few of the questions and ansAvers ,j

Who gave tho negroes the"right of suffrage in NCAV

York? The Demo

cratic party. Who presided over the Convention Avliich gave this privilege to negroes Martin VanBuren, a Democrat.

Who afterward elected Martin Van Buren President of the United States The Democratic party.

Who elected Richard M. Johnson

A lady no ticed a boy sprinkling salt on the sidewalk to take off the ice, and remarked to a friend, pointing to the salt, "NOAV that is true benevolence." "No it ain't," said the boy, someAvhat indignantly, "it's salt." So Avhen a lady asked her servant girl if the hired man had cleared off the snow from the steps with alacrity, she replied, "No, ma'am, housed a shovel."

The second pie M'as a pigeon-pic-mere tartlet to the Yorkshire and Durham giant. It was an innocent, little, simple pie of pigeons, with three still' legs sticking up in the cen tre of the outre crust in a combined, suicidal manner, or like the stalks of an extinct bouquet. It was a quiet, sombre London Sunday morning when the pie began to be cooked in the oven of the nearest baker. We were just through the dark lane of a long fever, and we were weak, faint, nervous, restless. The family went to church. The hells ceased. The

There is an old Avcst country proATerb that "the devil never ventures west of the Tamar, for fear he should be put into a pie." There is, indeed, some Avar rant for this quaint proverb, for Devonshire people, either from an innate fondness for pie, or from a stolid and reckless English dislike to put everything under crust. Ling, conger, shrimps, lobster, rocks, pilchard, leeks, oysters, .turnips, parsley, potatoes—they are all iuuriied under the same roof of crust, and are all indiscriminately devoured. Of all the vest country pies, squab pie is, in our humble estimation, the most incongruous and the most detestable. The odious composition is made of fat clumsy mutton chops, imbedded in layers of sliced apples, shredded onions, and 0 temporal O mores'— brown sugar! The result is nausea, unsociabilitj', and, in course of time, hatred of the whole human race. The greasy, sugary, oniony taste is associated, in our mind, AA'ith the detested name of Bideford.

Of the fish pies of Cornwall and Devon, what can Ave say that is encouraging or satisfactory Ling is a sickly, unwholesome-looking fish, like a consumptive cod, and can neArer thrive—-in or out of a pie. Cod is too dry and tasteless for a pie. Pilchard pie, mixed with leeks and filled up with scalded cream, announces its own horrors. Oyster pie, however, intermingled with slices of SAveetbread, and the faintest and most ethereal seasoning of salt, pepper and mace, is a dish lor the gods, painful to dwell upon Avhen not on hand to refer to. Eel pie needs no eulogium. To us the eel pie is like the May

It recalls

green truffles and a little delicate cutting of basil, thyme and knotted niajoram—rarest herbs of the garden. To these you add woodcock's liver, a little fat bacon, a few currants, the flesh of a wild fowl, some pepper and some salt. Then lard with spikes of bacon, the breasts of two pheasants, tAvo partridges, two woodcocks and some moor game divide the backs, sever the legs and wings, and place a whole pheasant, boned, in the centre. These are to be seasoned with white pepper, a little Jamaica pepper, salt and mace. To receiA'e these spoils of earth and air, construct a sarcophagus, of classic form and of thick aised crust.

Line this soft chest with slices of fine fat bacon. Pave it with stuffing, and on this pleasant bed lay the game Avith a light and loving hand, intermingled Avith whole green truflles fresh from the cool earth and lately routed out by the sagacious truffle hunter's dog. If you crowd and squeeze them, too greedy for mere quantity, remember Perigord will boast one good pie the less. Spread over all soft carpets of white unctions bacon, and inurn the Avhole under a thick crust. It must be baked with calmness and deliberation, for it takes a long time ripening in the oven.

Let us turn to pies of a more feminine character—the pics of the orchard and the garden. Our first recollection of fruit tarts is associated Avith our first visit to. the country, when, as boys,

AVC

were pressed into

the housekeeper's service and sent out into a long, green thicket of a garden. There, first seeing fruit alive upon the tree, blooming and gloAving with the life blood in its veins, we remember fancying ourselves in the garden of Eden, the housekeeper's very little daughter (aetat tAvelve) our incomparable Eve. There, forgetful of the hours and careless of the hot Avidening sunshine, singing lik© twin, wrens on the same bough of apple blossoms flowers at our feet, floAvcrs around us, flowers aboA'e our heads, we sat on three-leg-ged stools under the currant trees and stripped off the little beads of ruby and garnet, of white coral and of black blood color, chattering all sorts of nonsense from fairy books. How Avhite and vaporing the clouds when they every moment changed their shapes! How green and tender the grass on the lawn, with the daisies and gold cups floating up to the surface like the fragments of gold leaf in Dantzic Avater.

We remember, with the keenness of yesterday, our first impressions of the various'flavors, the soft negative Avhite currant, the sharp or more acid red, and that indescribable quality of the black, the dry stems and leaves of which are impregnated with the smell of the fruit.

Then Ave had again (under supervision) to diA'est the fruit of their barren stalks, and our croAvning delight was to sec them piled round the tea cup and rooted in from our gaze under a dome of paste. The blended flavor of the red currant and velvety raspberry struck our boyish fancy as superlatively happy, the warm raspberry striking perfume through the jucier currants, while a libation of mellow cream over the whole made a dish fit for Olympus. The black currant tart, too, had a rougher charm of its own. The fruit, swollen in the baking, yielded so generous a flood of crimson black juice that we children dyed ourselves AA'ith it, lips and hands, into the semblance of ensanguined blackamoors.

If Montepulciano be the king of Italian wines, as Redi has laid doAvn in his jovial bacchanalian poem, the glorious pie of Perigord, the treasure-house of good things, is the potentate of all possible pies, as the haggis, according to Burns, is "the great chieftain of all the pudding race." Into it are crowded all the choicest things of the sky, earth and ocean. The very making of it is a pleasure. We revel over every item of the recipe. What an amusement for a wet day in the country!

Delightful way of recording the changes of a year. Almost as good as an epicurean wine tour once planned by our friend Professor Dreikopt. We were to begin with Rome, and march straight from there on Monte pulciauo thence we were to take ship for Sicily, and examine the sites of the old Roman vintages. Ger-many-would come next, we touching at each Rhenish toAvn to taste its varieties of hock. Then came the claret, and the Burgundy, a delicious episode in champaigne. Spain followed Greece, and we were to Avincl up with a bottle of Lacryme Christi on the edge of the crater of Vesuvius.

Why the Bonds Cannot be Taxed. A correspondent of Clinton, Ohio, asks us to answer the question Why Government bonds should not and cannot be rightfully taxed. We answer By three successive decisions of the United States Supreme Court, it has been decided that for a State, city, or other local authority to tax national bonds is inconsistent with those clauses of the Constitution Avhicli make the national goArernment, within the scope of its delegated powers, supreme over all State or local laAvs. The power to borroAv money is a national power, vested by the Constitution in the national government, The power to tax, being in its nature unlimited save by the will of the State leA-ying the tax, Avould enable the State to tax federal bonds 100 per cent, as easily as 1 per cent.— in short, it Avould place the power of the nation to borroAv in subjection to the power of the State to tax. The States could, therefore, by the exercise of this power destroy the nation al Government. This has been the argument of .the Supreme Court as delivered by Chief Justice Marshall and others. This is a sufficient reason why the bonds cannot be taxed by any State or local authority.

The taxation of bonds by Congress would, moreover, be a direct tax on property. Whether the tax is levied on principal or interest, this holds true. The National debt is not an industry or a business like banking and other taxable branches of business. It is property merely. The interest is nothing till it is due, and then it is property like the principal. Congress is forbidden by the Constitution to lay any direct tax whatever, except in proportion to numbers, and in a manner which would not be practicable, and has not been proposed, in relation to the National debt. The propositions heretofore made to lay a direct tax on the national bonds are, therefore 1, if laid before the bonds are issued, nugatory, resulting in no revenue 2, if laid after the bonds are issued, repndiatory, resulting in a swindle 3, in either case uncontitutional, because Congress cannot lay a direct tax on property, unless it be levied through the State Government, and in proportion to population, and fall on all kinds of property alike.

The Atlantic Cable.

From'the reports of English electricians it appears that the tests applied to the inefficient Atlantic cable shoAv that the fault lies about eighty miles from Newfoundland, in water not exceeding, if it reaches, one hundred fathoms in depth, and that the interruption of communication is so complete as to put it almost beyond doubt that the injury has been caused by the grounding of an iceberg. Communication will, it is expected, be restored in less than a month, but it is asserted that the other cable is fully equal to the work required of it.

them Avith the impression on minds of purchasers that they would not be taxed, and then, after the purchaser has bought them at the price they Avould be worth if not taxed, the Government repudiates the faith on which lie bought them, and taxes them. In this way the Government would realize a temporary profit equal to the amount of the tax, i. e., it will succeed in swindling the lender out of so much of his bargain. The act of the Government is like selling a house subject to a concealed mortgage, or a horse afflicted Avith a latent disease. It is a fraud. It may be answered that the lender knew that the Government could tax its bonds, and therefore took them subject to any excrcisc ot the power the Go\ eminent might sec fit to put foith. This proves too much. For the Government might choose to tax the principal 100 per cent., or the interest 6 per cent, annually, either of which destroys the Avhole Aralue of the bond. Can it be pretended that it Avould not be total repudiation for Congress to tax the principal 100 percent? course not! Then is repudiation pro tan to to tax it any portion of 100 per cent. Whatever argument avails to justify taxing the bonds one per cent, justifies taxing them who 11a* out of existence.
