The writer has eaten enjoy- ably of over one hundred, and confidently expects to add many more to the list. The late Dr. Curtis, of North Carolina, cata- logues one hundred and twelve man called the large audience, which densely packed the court- room, to order, and in one of the neatest and most interesting intro- ductory speeches presented the » | degree of intelligence who has not Hon. Jno. M. Langston as the ora- tor of the occasion. The Senator said: “While it has never been my pleasure to have met this dis- tinguished gentleman before, still I, like each one of you present, knew him because of his fame which had reacned us many years ago. There is nota man of any read one or more of his speeches. Now without further wearying your patience, for I know that you like myself are anxious to hear him, | I take great pleasure iv welcoming him here and introducing him to you, the most eloquent and talent- ed man of his race, Hon. Jno. M. Laugston.” As Prof. Langston arose to speak to the large audience, which was composed almost equally of) white and colored men, applauded him most cordially. Mr. Langston, in opening his speech, said he felt under many obligations for the flattering manner in which the most excellent chairman had seen fit to present iim, and he assured that gentleman and the -anudience | that he heartily thanked them for | the kina words used in bis intro- duction and their cordial recep- tion. Continuing, Mr. Langston said: ‘The two parties have Cios- en their leaders and announced their ylatforms. It now remains with you to decide Whether you will espouse the cause of free trade under the Banuer of Cleveland, or that of the American system under { Harrison. The democrats com- plain of the large surplus in the treasury, and because of their de- sire to lessen that surplus, they would adopt free trade. It they are houest, and want to reduce the | sarplus, and do it in a way to bene-) fit the country, why not pass the} |and even worse; for, if believed edible kinds found by him in that State. Every day mycuphagists are adding to their cuisine species not heretofore tes'ed to the sufety- pointin eating, snd even those which have long borne a bad reputation, The mycophagist selects from wood and field a specimen of toadstoo! which by its external appearance extends an invitation to try it. Hard, dry, leathery, fetid, slimy, or decomposing ones are left rigidly alone,—as they should be. Curefully removing the fun- gus from its nabitation, and after noting its botanical characteristics, a effiall piece is tasted raw: if it is nauseous, it is thrown away and branded as non-edible; if it is hot, acrid, or bitter, a smail piece is cooked without seasoning; if it re- tains any disagreeable qualities over the coals, it is branded in lke manner; if it loses them all, larger pieces are cooked and eaten until the kind either gives signs of noxious qualities or proves to be harmless, Ifthe specimen is mild and pleasant to the taste (a small piece) both raw and cooked, the same care is observed until a full meal is eaten; and it is very necessary that it should be; for in one family of gillbearing toad- stools—the Amanitme--no sign either cooked or raw is given of its deadly properties, This is the only tamily to which deaths have been traced; and the botanical characteristics of its members must be thoroughly mastered, There is no other method of tes~ ting that is safe.

Govern stands as high with base ball man agers as the best of them, The Legislature of this State is now in session, being called by the Governor on accountof the lack of means to keep the prisoners at work in the various penal Inustitu- tions in the State. The colored men residing in the 11th District, have some hot work on their hands. There is a split among the Republican bosses. The new leaders seem to have the ears of moguls and the old timers are all atsea. A.H. Johnson has offered to take all of the malcontents into a new Cleveland club now being formed. Harry Hill hasgone to Albany to the session of the legislature of which he is an officer. Old Tom Brown objects to the statement that Hill and Ralpb Langston have shut him’out of his own District. Heclaims that he still has a list of the voters in the Banner District, in bis inside poe:- et. The governor had better try and get the job of carrying the banner of the Harry Hill clubs or he may get shut out altogether.
