THE CONFEDERATE SO ED IE IS

The address before the Army of
Northern Virginia, by. Gen. D.v H.
Hill, at Richmond, last Wednesday
night, -concludes with the fol
lowing eloquent tribute ; to :., the sol
diers of the ranks: " y
And what shall be said of those
unselfish patriots who were true ; to
their colors to toe last, when the rav
ges of armies had desolated their
country and the torches of bummers
had left blackened chimneys as mon
uments over the buried treasures of
a husband's and father's love? How
can we sufficiently honor, those men
who; knowing that their families
without food and without shelter.
were starving to death; or were living
on the olial of the enemy 's camps
who, knowing even this, yet answer
to roll call, yet still filled their places
in the ranks, yet still ''faced death
again and again, putting duty , to
country abovo duty : to wife and
children ? Aye, how many of i them
poured out their hearts' blood in that
last despairing? struggle, leaving
those they loved more than . life to
the cold charities of a forgetful world 1
Hard must be the heart of that foe
man which does not warm with a
generous glow at this simple tale of
sublime' devotion to . principle.
And how. should ,this story: affect us,
their comrades in' danger, and their
partners in the same buoyant hopes
and the same deep despair? May

ACIDIIf IHIEK.
A Persecuted Dealer Turns Upon
Bis Brethren , and Divulges
Some Professional Secrels.rt
The, milk dealers in the western
section of 'Philadelphia: are fighting
among themselves, and the result Of
the quarrel will be that the consum
ers, tor a time at least,will have less
chalk and water in their coffee than
usual., ' - -
Most of the milk consumed in that
city is of rather doubtful composi
tion, but the revelations made by
the witness who has turned State's
evidence and thrown himself upon
the mercy of the court are simply
appalling. He started in business
for himself recently, and prospered
to such an extent that his former
employer became jealous, it is said,
and brought a criminal charge
against him. By way of retaliation
the young dealer divulged some pro
fessional secrets, declaring that large
dealers, 'among them' his old employ
er, Useu boracic acid in milk. They
used it, as a preservative, and he
claims ti at by its use milk can be
kept for a week. . , When large deal
era have a quantity of milk left over
they use the acid, which keeps it
from souring. The acid powder costs
tbirfcysfive cents a pound, and is,us
ed in the proportion of four ounces
to forty quarts of milk. The acid can
only be used with pure milk ; for if
the milk has already been diluted,
or is on the point of turning sour,
the acid will hasten the decomposi
tion.' v
The dealer says that more than
half -of tho so called 4 "pure Alderney
milk" sold in that city is common
stuff diluted with hot water and doc
tored with boracic acid. The acid is
made from a mineral found in Neva
da, and is used chiefly in lotions and
washes.
Druggists say that it ought
tafefm intfirnall v hut th a
not to be taken internally, but the
milk-dealers probably know better.

the keeper. There is no conceivable
shape known to a contortionist that
the posture maniac of the Suffolk
county alms-house cannot be made
to assume by moving and manipulate

I resembles ; the native politicians of
the county, who are prone to assume

is strictly temperate. Not a word or
