THUR8DAY, APRIL 19, 1877. A MORAL FOR THE 1 EAGI.E." a Soui8 years ago Jacob leading member of the Berks County Bar, while arguing an important cane before the Court of this county, was pointedly interrupted by the Judge in regard to an adroit misquotation of the law, which he (the attorney) used to prejudice the verdict in favor of his client. Mr. H. was told that the very opposite was the spirit and letter of the Jaw.

The lawyer, not a bit discomfited by the Judge's interjectory reproof, took up the thread of his argument by continuing in a spirited manner "Yes, gentlemen of the jury, you will observe that the Judge and I entirely agree upon this subject. It's just as I said, but only stated dif ferently that's all," or words of similar import. From this, perhaps, almost forgotten local incideat, we would draw a moral for the benefit of our neighbor across the way, who don't like to admit to his own complete discomfiture in a recent contro versy. It will be remembered that some days ago, one of the proprietors of this paper was charged with having asked for regular night reports from the National Press Association for use in this paper. This we denied in a few carefully chosen words of no uncertain meaning.

After a few days' waiting, the Eagle of yesterday produced a copy of the letter written from this office to the Atlantic and Pacific Telegraph Company containing these words "Is there any daily paper in Reading now re "oeiving telegraphic service from so 'to what extent How do your rates coin. "pare with those of the Associated Press for 'regular night report?" The parts in paren theses, though of no peculiar significance, are an apparent interpolation the original copy of the letter now before us containing no such words. As in the case of the attorney's distortion of the law, the Eagle, though its charge fall to the ground from its own showing, yet li; the audacity to say in face, of convincing documentary proof to the contrary. "It's just as we said the Times' folks did ask for regu' lar press reports' That is one way of pre senting a esse, but the jury the great un prejudiced public in adjudging the case, will tear aside the flimsy veil of sophistry which would conceal the real question at issue, and make up its veidict upon the true merits of the case. In conclusion, one thing must not be lost sight of by the public.

It is this. In making its charge against the Times and Dispatch, the Eagle seeks to create the impression that we "asked for" and desire the reports of the National Press Association If that were so, what should prevent us from getting these re ports, especially, as the Manager of the Atlan tic and Pacific Telegraph Co. has written us that they "would like to have you (us) as a customer." The Associated Press reports are published in Reading only in the Times and Dispatch. It is the same news that is served to the Herald, Times, Tribune and World of New Terms for the paper, 12 cents per week, delivered by carriers to all parts of the city and along all the stations of the lines of rail way. LOCAL NEWS.

Miller Murder Risser's Hearing To Day, Our Lebanon correspondent says: "The hearing in the Miller murder case will be di nosed of to dav before Coroner Weber. A Drominent official, intimately connected with the prosecution, states that, so far, there is not siifhcient evidence against zra David Kisser, now in tail, for his detention or conviction, Should the bearing not lead to his discharge and no further evidence be submitted, Kisser will be discharged before his trial can take place at August Sessions in order to avoid an acquittal. The attorney says he is confident of his guilt, but the crime has not been brought to him sufficiently to justify an indict ment to be presented against him. The Coroner 1 1 1.... 18 euueavoring avuiu iiearuig, uut uiay not be able to retain Ins prisoner any longer.

The charge is made that Detective Lyon has mismanaged the case. Detective luayer has not done any better. The truth Is the murder is still a mystery and so far beyond human power to solve. The counsel lor Common wealth will have a final consultation before the hearing and decide what course to pur sue. The City's Health this Week.

THE REAL. How the IMneoverv ot Artificial Batter Wim Made Its Introduction Into tola Country Ita Effect on tbe Market. "All that glitters is not gold," and what appears as golden butter is not in every case that luscious article. When Solomon lifted up his voice, and said there was nothing new under the sun, he showed that, vise as he was, he was not versed in the tricks of the butter trade. As far as history extends this produce of the cow was known, for Father Abraham, according to Biblical history, set "butter and milk" before the three miraculous guests who visited him while he sojourned on the plains of Mamre by the brook of Hebron in Palestine.

That was about 4,000 years ago, and from that time down butter has been frequently mentioned as an esteemed article of diet So much so that one of the punishments Inflicted npon the wicked is, to use the words of Jophar in the time of Job, that "he" (the wicked) "shall not see" the brooks of honey and butter. HOW IT IS MADE. In olden times, when Abraham set the butter before his mysterious guests and for centuries after, the manner of making butter was to put the cream in a leather bottle, such as was used for carrying wine or water, and by a pro cess of shaking it up until the buttery particles formed. Then the modern process of churning in wooden churns became general and the process of making it was one that tended to give strong arms and a full expansion of the chest to the sturdy country girl. Up to within a very few years the old upright churn was universally used, with its plain up and down dasher, the weight sometimes counterbalanced by a spring above, to which it was attached by a cord.

But although in the interior, and even in the thickly settled part of the country, these old fashioned churns are used yet, Yankee ingenuity has bent itself to the task of making labor saving churns that, bring the butter from the cream with less labor and in quicker time than ever. But while Yankee iugenuity has thus lessened the butter maker's labor, French science has also been at work and pro duced AH ARTIFICIAL BUTTER itself. The discovery arose out of some chemical experiments that were, at the instance of the French Government, made by M. Hippo lyte Mege with a view to find some article to be used as butter, to have the same general qualities, and at the same time to be cheaper in price and capable of being kept without spoiling. These experiments were conducted at the Government farm at Vincennes.

By placing several milch cows on a strict diet of non fat producing food he found that, although the animals decreased in weight and gave less milk, the milk itself always contained butter. From this M. Mege was convinced that the fatty particles of the milk from which the butter was obtained was a direct contribution from the fat of the animal itself, which being absorbed and carried into the circulation, was deprived of its stearine by natural combustion in the lungs and then furnished as oleo mar garine to the mammary glands, and there by contact with the butyric acid developed in them changed to butter. Reasoning upon this he was induced to try by experiment the tie ductions of reason and procuring some cow's fat and beef suet he succeeded by the use of a small quantity of milk in addition in making a good sample of butter. i HOW ARTIFICIAL BUTTER 18 The first step in making it is to separate the at from the tissues.

To do this it is necessary to be extremely careful not to allow the temperature to exceed 120 although 103 is sufficient. When melted at a higher temper ature the fat acquires a disagreeable taste, that cannot be removed by any process. The first step is toseparate or mince the fat into small particles, aud then thoroughly cleanse it by washing in pure water. This is repeated until it is thoroughly cleansed, end it is then rendered or separated from its membranous tissues. The latter operation occupies about three hours, and is done in large kettles having hollow sides, in which condensed steam gives a temperature ot about Izlr.

irom these large kettles it is run off into smaller ones and kept at the same temperature until the floating particles of tissue are deposited. It is then run oft into other vessels and allowed to cool to about 80 temperature. After it has become tolerably firm it is moulded iuto small Cakes, wrapped in cloth and subjected to an pressure (sometimes over 200 tons) Which presses OIt Hie oleo marganne and leaves the stearine. The former is then free hum, aur ui wiu nilU rail un iuu i i. i and is used for culinary purposes, and is called cooking grease.

Jt is composed ot THE SAME ELEMENTS AS BUTTER. and is the same substance that passing into the mammary glands of the cow is by their action converted iuto butter. To do this artificially uii)ill portion of pure milk or cream is added, ainj lien by working it tugether genuine butter is formed. The cooking grease is a very valuable addition to the cuisine, and is especially so for using on trips either at sea or on the land, as it keeps perfectly clear and sweet for a long time. In a report made by M.

Felix Bendee to the Board of Health of the Department of the Seine, he says, after speaking in high terms of the first product "The second, possessed of properties which alloy of its close comparison with butter in a chemical point view as regards its take the place of the latter in many instances; and, in consequence of the small expense at which it can be made, it has been put in competition with milk butter, which will lower necesjjsrily the price of the latter to the bene 1 tit of 1 lie consumer, render the consumption of I it less considerable, and allox the breeders to devote a much greater quantity of milk to. thp raising of calves, a great advantage to their industry. INTRODUCTION INTO HH COUNTRY. In 1873, shortly after M. had made is discovery, in the course of hia reseaichpc he obtained a patent in then seeing what an immense field lay before him in the great territory of the Lrniled States, he started to get a patent in this country.

But there was one ahead of him, a parly from Alsatia, by the nameol Paraps who, learning through the report of the method of making the artificial butter, applied 1 ir a patent as his own discov ery, and obtained it. Al. Mege, however, by the presentation of proof of his prior discovery, and also of the fact that Paraps has obtained is knowledge trom current publications in Francs, succeeded in ousting the latter and having his patent annulled, and got one himself. He immediately started a large company, called the United Slates Dairy Company, assigning the patent to them. This company established others in New York and New jersey and also in this State.

The factory in Neiir York is on a large scale, having a capac ity of rendering 5.0,0,000 pounds of caul fat per week. This produces 100 barrels of the oleo margarine, 01 which the butter is miide, ten hogsheads of stearine, and ten of tallow. Everything is utilized, and even the water is straineil before being run off, and the reluse is ttli) la the soap makers, i here are three steam ch.ii 110, each of the capacity of 200 pounds of the oleomargarine. About eight qnaris of milk are added to each pf flip churns, and. alter being thoroughly worked, is laid out 011 large flat trays, inspected, rechurned until the milk is all worked out, and then packed )iki)(j (or the wholesale Irade, or stamped one pound and half pound lumps.

It is then ready fur the market, and is of a clear. liiiht yellow color, and in taste aud smell not be distinguished from good cream butter, but is said by the dealers not to keep, but soon gets rancid. ITS EFFECT ON THE MARKET, even fairly taking a foothold, can easily lie seen, The piices of butter range all the way froin JfO ceim 0 $1 retail. The latter is a fancy price, and by countrymen who come to the j.ily in their ntd sail heir produce to regular customers. Those of the wealthier class make regular coniracu) to lake what butter thev want at a certain fixed is to at mi price all the year round.

Thus the producer will sell to one party at $1, or even higher, and sell from the same tub at prices ranging much lower to people whose purses are not so long. At the time of the Centennial there were many who were supplied by contracts at prices as high as 1.50 per pound. One hotel, the Globe, near the Centennial grounds, was supplied with butter to tbe value of $18, 000 during the six months it was open, and that only shows the immense amount that it takes to supply the hetelB with this luxury. THE STRIKE GROWS HOT. mation that tbe Brotherhood contemplated any overt act against the company.

I was one of the committee who wailed upon Mr. Gowen when he cut our wages down ten per cent, last September, when we run more miles on a complicated road than any set of men in the State. We went to Philadelphia and requested him to put the ten per cent, on again. He said the financial condition of the road would not allow it. We reported the result of the interview to the Brotherhood, and they willingly accepted the situation.

EXPECTATIONS OP THE BROTHERHOOD. My candid opinion is that we will beat tbe company in this "stand off." We are bound to beat them, for it is a stab at the Brotherhood, and our brethren all over tbe country will stand by us in this fight for freedom. It will only cost them about two or three cents a day which will be levied and paid cheerfully. Concerning the "pilots" on the engines they will stop for the same cause as the firemen. They will be "shamed" off.

The reason we did not desert our trains was because we saw the folly of discommoding the traveling pub lic. The Reading road paid us for 26 days $71.50. The Brotherhood pays us IbO, while we are at home and have no board to pay at the other end. OPINIONS OF THE PRESS, The strike on the Reading Railroad is still the theme of newspaper discussion. We give both sides.

The Philadelphia Tl'mmsays: Capital in its severe misfortune must seek safety in severe even heartless economy, if the language is preferred, and labor is not in position to be master of the situation as it was when there was a va cant place for every dissatisfied workman These are unwelcome truths, but they are truths which, after all the theorizing on the question, will govern railroads, engineers, con ductois and miners, and to their logic all must bow. If one thousand laborers strike, however just may be their complaint, there are twice or thrice the number of breadless men ready to take their places, and thus it will be until prosper oils capital and labor make a prosperous coun try again The Lancaster Examiner and Express says: "It is becoming prettv evident that Mr. a Gowen, President of the Reading Railroad, has a bigger 10b on hand than he calculated. The Bethlehem Times says: "There is no immediate prospect of a settlement of the dim culty, aud both the company and its late employees, therefore, are making ample prepara tions tor a long continued tight. The Scranton Republican says: "If the com pany Is merely actuated by a desire to reduce the men to dependence by breaking up the Brotherhood it would hardly seem to be gov erned by a spirit worthy of commendation, es pecially in view ot its own willingness to combine with other companies for mutual pro tection and advantage." The Lancaster Intelligencer says "There should be no restraint put upon the natural laws which enable every man to buy wherever he can buy best and cheapest, whether he wants to buy coal or locomotive drivers.

There should be an open market for every commodi tv, if public interests are to be truly subserved. But so long as this is not secured to the pub lic by their lawmakers, so long will it be as lustihable tor locomotive drivers to loin to gether in a Brotherhood, as it is for railroad and coal companies to combine in an associa tion." The Pottsville CAromce says: Perhaps Mr, Wootten can give some better reason for the company's action than the order issued to the engineers contains. XI he can, and cares any thing for public opinion, we advise him to speak out, because, so far as the people are now concerned, the engineers have their heart felt sympathy. The Boston Qlobe says "This is another case in which it seems to us that the Railroad company placed itsell in the wrong. It re quired all its engineers to leave the Brother hood, which was an unjustifiable attempt to interiere with personal liberty.

At the same time the assumed authority of the Brother hood over the men was an interference with Dersonal liberty eauallv renrehenslhle." The Philadelphia Evening Bulletin says: "At the very worst the action of the striking train bands can only cause momentary embar rassment, and as they have no such provoca tion lor withdrawal as the engineers have in the demand that they shall surrender the Brotherhood, the chances of re employment yhen the loss is over will be painfully small." 1 lnladelphia tree): The existing contest wlU be conducted under comparatively novel renditions, andifthe RrnthprhnnH trinmnh it will be mainly because theannerinr Irnnwledva and experience gained by the old engineers of the peculiarities ot the railroad, its tranic, and its engiues, rentier their services so useful that the withdrawal ol the circular will be deemed preferable to a prolongation of the strife.
