In the course of his spazch Logan asserted that the English supported and sympathized with the confederazes in the late civil war, be- cause of the free trade section of the erate constitution, which provided that 5o tax or tariff should b+ lovied to foster any ury. He charged that the demccrats had put in their platform of to- e i cal lunguage of the c: and this had been done under southern d tion.

This company set out somo time ago to expose the character, and as far as possible to break up the sale, of adultetated baking pow- ders. Having found from an examina- tion of & number of speaimens procured from grocers that they “were gonerally of an inferior character, some devoid of - ail leavening properties, snd many of them sctually poisonous, it bronght the matter before the publie, denounced the makers by name in the press andto the health authorities. The aflsic was socedily taken up by physicians, Boards of Health and Legislatures throughout the country chemists ero em- vloyed to make scicntific tests of the various powders in the market, and the government itself directed analyses to be made before it would purchase the supplies needed for army, navy and Indi- an uses, The result more than justified the charges so boldly made by the Royal ompany. Not only were the majority of baking powders in the market found to «bo largely adulterated, but many cf them were ascortained to contain alum and other poisonons ingredients to such an extent as to render them positively unsafe for use in human food. The in- formation spread throughout the country and created o profound sensation, As i result many of thess injurious mixtures were driven out of the market, and thoe sule of all of thom eeriously interfered with. No ocou o of recent date hag been 80 far reaching as this in its benefi- ciul influence upon the public health and the boldness of the Royal Dak- ing Powder Comp:ny in the in- auguration of such a warfare, and their energy is carrying [it forward with such important results, were uni- veraally commented upon and apprecia- ted. In making the chavges they did not hesitate to enter into competition with every other baking powder in the country, and it is a public satisfaction that inall the tests and analyses made the Royal Baking Powder was placed st the head of the list and declared by Boards of Health andby the Government chemists Drs. Mott and Love, to be su perior to all others in strength, and abso- lutely pure and free from all inferior substances, In continuing this warfare against the adulterated food, more particularly the alum and otherwise impure and inferior baking powders which unscrupulous man- ufacturers are endeavoring to force upon the market in this locality, the Royal will undoubtedly meet with the old-time opposition and aouse Weare confident, however, that the public will also appre- ciate, as heretofore, both the object of the **alum men” and the sotfon of the Royal Company, and award full justice to the compsny thar has so fearlessly stood up for its protection from all such adventurers, e Meeting of (he Congregational Uni Loxnoy, October 8.—At & meeting of the Congregatioual Union of England, heid lagt night Dr. Bradford, of New Jersey and D Little, of Chicage o wddresses and wes warmly welcomed by the ubion, i Sad Accident Noury Avaws, October 7.—A earrlags con- taining George and Alice Hall of Stamford, Vermont, was struck by an express train at Greylock crogsing last night and both were instantly killed.
