A Plea for the Kitchen.
The great ieonSistencYin;Mithology lay
in the unnecelsary grossness of its persons
ages:. It is quite unaccountable . that so ctile
tivated and msthetio a nation as the Greeks,
while •peopline theirforests with graceful
and airy hamadryads and fauns, imagined
the chief gods at Olyinpus to' be the gor
mandising, guzzling wretches they were.
Those offsprings of Grecian and Roman
imagination were insufferably worse than
the imaginations that sculptors of that day
put into 'Marble: Their own eating the
Greeks and Romans conductedon principles
-somewhat .T.sthetic,reclining at table,divert
ing themselves with games, songs, and the
plashing of fountains; and this not so much
because they were Sybaritic, as that they
wanted to relieve eating of its - animal cha
racter. Why, then, did they figure their,
gods as eating at all? We have not received
- the formula for ambrosia, although it must
have been "home-brewed;" and the gods
I nay have been genuine hippophagi for
aught we know, for the door of the celestial
kitchen was never left ajar. There it stands,
however 9 the unexplained Contradiction for
scholars to smooth away—the fact that an
resthetic people not only failed to see that
eating and drinking are essentially undevine
habits, but went further aid made gods of
wine.bibbing wretches vastly worse than
themselves, as if Circe had been their
god-mother-in-chief.
Howe much ^ better are we American
moderns of this century towards ourselves?
Unquestionably, the highest -tribute ever
paid the human race, in profane literature,
is in Hamlet's words- to Guildenstern—
"What a piece of work is man! how noble
in reason! how infinite in faculties! in form
and motion, how express and admirable! in
-action, how like an angle! in apprehension,
howhke a god! the beauty of the world! the
paragon of animals!" But our rapacious
bodies compel us to a great descent from
this. The -dining-table is the confessional
to which, three times a day, we must repair
and admit that we are weak and miserable.
Newton come dOwn from the stars, and
- Shakepeare leaves Hamlet standing with
Yorick's skull in his hand while each fills
up the machine he carries. to wit, his own
body. Man is lord of the fowl and the brute;
but thrice a day he bows to their level,
with only this difference, that they
craunch their bones raw, while he takes his
cooked. The hand that holds the reins of
empire picks up a fork or a spoon, grasping
it with equal eagerness; the tongue that
came to bury Caesar goes home and rolls
itself around :baked meats. Nothing but
the repetition and universality of eating
saves it from being counted a shame. If
one man alone bore this necessity,he would
feel himself an outcast, branded worse than
Cain. Little Jack Horner, who sat in a
corner eating his Christmas pie, did not do
so altogether because he feared some other
boy would be after the pie, nor vet for the
sake of the rhyme,but because he had an in
ner shame at proving himself aweak, hungry
little boy, and so wanted to be secret at it.
And when the age is prepared to allow that
animals have souls, it will say that puss
slinking under the dresser with her mouse,
and the tiger, carrying an ox into the jun
gle, do so because they are ashamed to be
seen; that the secret instinct proclaims
eating weakness, which only convention
alism can tolerate openly done.
The two extremes are exalting, the art of
dining to the height of a supreme object, and
on the other hand, yielding to the necessity
for food with ungracious reluctance. Vast
is the distance between the two, and the
former is the more honorable, if one must
choose. So the Greeks and Romans cer
tainly thought; and the French now-a-days
sin in the same direction, if at all; but
Americans have squarely jumped to the
other evil extreme. We do not carry out
instinct, and seek our caves when we dine,
because that is not convenient, and because
we are all in the same bondage to hunger;
but we do not submit gracefully, rather ag
gravating and proclaiming our subjection
by chafing at it. The fable of Ventrum et
lifembra is acted out, and the members are
all against thebelly. We throw it food with
an it natured jerk, which means: There,
take that, and that, and that, and stop your
detestable whining! We make it do what
the brain cannot—recotacile and assimilate
contradictions and absurdities,
Wretched cooking is supplemented in
flavor by an overdose of spice, as though a
dish should not be its own seasoning; and
as thpugh, if the spice is good in itself, it
were not folly to spoil it by adding the dish.
As a nation, we own one universal liquor,
which is gravy. It is a distinct entity, not
existing in the plural number; it is a com
pelling swash which drowns everything, an
American garlic which refuses to be buried.
The genuine American is sallow and lean,
discovering at thirty that he has an infirm
stomach, and thereupon resigning hope and
going into the hands of the doctors. Dys
pepsia sits at the head of every American
table, and . certainly keeps all our restau
rants, suggesting that the wicked could not
have a more material punishment in the
future life than a perpetual dinner at one of
them. Bad cooking is our national intem
perance. Pastry is our universal drug, and
a monosyllabic epitaph—truthful at least—
might be cut on many headstones, thus :
Here I lie,
Slain by pie.
This is not all fanciful exaggeration. In
an old number of Harper—so old that it is
new—the facetious Bess Browne makes one
of his heroes declaim thus: "What, sir! do
you undertake to tell me that because our
:friend Mr. Fry, for example, has just break
fasted on a pound of bacon,
two pounds of
venison, the leg of a rabbit, the breast of a
quail, half a dozen mountain trout, and a
can of sardines, he is to that extent hog,
deer, rabbit,
.quall, trout and sardine?"
*Candidly, one would say not ; and yet, re
member that we are only what we have
eaten ! The work of assimilation is not
carried on remotely from ourselves, as in
the South cooking used to be done in an
•outhouse removed from the main building;
but the laboratory and real kitchen are within
•ourselves. What we eat determines largely
the beating of our hearts, the evolutions of
.our brains, the movements of our affections.
The cerebrum' must have good blood, the
-constituents of which enter the mouth or
not at all. Your liver, upon brandy and
water, accomplishes nothing. Great workers
have been great eaters, if not gormandizers.
Handel, in the year of his most prolific com
position, ate the dinner of six., declaring
himself the company. The blue devils of
:gloomy Theology may quite likely came
out of the kitchen-fire; the man who wrote
the hideous saying that hell is paved with
the skulls of infants may have been writhing
,at the time under the torment of under
baked bread, mistaking pain of the body
—as many before him and after him have
-done--for veritable agony of the soul.
Dyspepsia is unnecessarily an American
-disease. It is so because Americans persist
in owning ingloriously their human subjec
tion to appetite; because theit dealings with
the stomach are in a spirit of ill-nature, h as
though its plaints were unreasonable. The
body receives all thought for its raiment, the
mind for its culture, the senses for their
„satisfaction; but the stomach can get along
with anything. The kitchen is held to be no
place for the mistress; and so it is turned
over to Biddy, who slaughters us all with
her ignorance; and so it will be as long
as cooking is esteemed a work of.: dis
honor. In reality, literature, general
work, happiness, and even
.Christianity,
- itself; may le said, without violence,
to begin in the kitchen, for they all
have root in bodily health. Sana mess can
riot be dissevered .from sanum corpus, and,
neither from the kitchen. Besides the con
nection of cookery with our own lives,
-chemistrY, which comprehends everything,
waits to be its handmaid, and is that corn

vant? A Frenchman has come to us, and to

THE CLEVELAND MURDERER.—Dr. John
W. Hughes was convicted at Cleveland,
Ohio, last Friday, of murder in the first
degree, for shooting Miss Tamzen Parsons,
at Bedford (a few miles from Cleveland), on
the 9th of August, 1865. The circumstances
of the crime were peculiar. Dr. Hughes, a
married man with one child, had settled in
Bedford, where ho gained the affections of
Miss Parsons, a girl of seventeen, and
effected her ruin. They fled to Pitts
burgh, in December, 1864, where a forged
divorce was exhibited, and a form of mar
riage gone through, and where Hughes was
arrested for bigamy.
He was sentenced to the Penitentiary, in
Pennsylvania, in January, but soon par
doned through the agency of his deserted
wife. The infatuation for Tamzen Parsons
still strong upon him, he sent his wife and
child to England, their native country, and
continued his illicit suit; meeting, however,
the opposition of Miss Parsons and of her
family. Baffled, disgraced, and stung to
madness, he took to drink, and ended the
complication in a murder committed in
open day upon the main street of the village.
Dr. Hughes is a man of thirty-nine years,
of superior education and refined manners,
and has borne himself through the trial
with a firmness that was not shaken even
by the dread sentence.
MAGNIFICENT DONATION AND ENTER•
PRISE.—One of the noblest and most judi
cious acts of liberality and enterprise which
has occurred in the present era, is the loan
by the Adams Express Co. of $2,000,000 of
its accumulated capital to several of the
Southern railroads, to enable them to re
sume operation. This company, by such
donations, attests its great wisdom, and
establishes new claims to the support and
patronage of the people of the South. A
like liberality on the part of other large
capitalists, who are interested in our pros
perity, would soon restore, nay, give a new
and greater impulse to our progress and
prosperity, and make the South what we
believe it is destined in not many years to
become, the most flourishing portion of this
continent.—N. 0. Picappze. •

MINING COMPANIES.
PAQISPECTUS
11F TEE
CARSON GOLD MINING COMPANY,
NORTH CAROLINA.
The Land of this Company consists of 120 ACHES
in Mecklanberg county, North Carolina, 8.16 miles from
the town of Charlotte, on:a branch of Sugar Creek,
which stream furnishes gook water power for grinding
the ores. This Mine was first opened In 1826 by amen
named Carton. who worked it successfUlly for a num
ber of years. He died In the town of Charlotte, In
1846, worth over half a million dollars.
Two shafts have been stink on this property, one 0
them 00 feet, the other 60 feet, on different veins
averaging from two to three feet in thickness, which
veins still continue on down increasing in width and
richness. These shafts are in good order, and ore can
greedily taken out at any time. Other veins have been
discovered on this property, and tested and proved to
be very rich in gold. The ores of this mine are known
as the brown ore, and very rich, yielding readily $l9
per bushel. This is believed to be one of the best and
most certain mines in the State, on account of the
abundance and quality of the ore, and ease in which
it is obtained and reduced. This property has been
worked by Major Z. A. Grier from 1040 to the breaking
out of the war. This Company have purchased this
property, and intend to erect machinery and put the
mines in immediate operation. The many advantages
of this mine over the mines of Colorado and Nevada
can hardly be estimated. It is more readily reached,
and Das abundance of fuel. with cheap labor. It can
be worked all the year, and not, as in the case of Cola
redo and Nevada, be compelled to lie idle for three or
four months in consequence of the severity of the
winter.
This mine having been worked for a long time.
proved to be a rich paying one. We do not, therefore
have to incur the risk there is in an undeveloped pru
perty, but can count on large and immediate returns
on the investments. Having an ore that readily yielde
Vo per bushel, some estimate can be made of the
value of this property. With the present inapeffecc
system of mining in this locality. and absence of pro.
per machinery, ten tons of this ore can be taken out
daily it orn every shaft opened. Estimating. say 15
bushels to the ton, the daily yield will be I.ri , ya front
one shaft, allowing ;szuer per day tar expenses. The net
product will be t I.L'ou per day; count ng W 5 working
days to the year, the y early proceeds will be $.1,:0 eeb.
a blob yield can be largeiy increas,d by extending the
