MEMPHIS' GOVERNMENT.
Bow the Metropolis of Tennessee Ceucd
w jue u municipality.
Charles Dudley Warner, writing in Bar-
r ' - . ..--ny..... 1K;r prin
cipal troubles, explains: Under these cir-
uuuisuiuws tuo city resorted to a novel ex
pedient. It surrendered its charter to the
State, and ceased to exist as a municipality.
The leaders of this movement gave two
reasons for it the wish not to repudiate
the city debt, but to gain breathing-time,
and that municipal government in this
country is a failure. The Legislature erect
ed the former Memphis into the taxing dis
trict of Shelby County, and provided a
government for it. This govornment con
sists of a legislative council of eight
members, made up of the Board of Fire and
Police Commissioners, consisting of three,
and the Board of Public Works, consisting
of five. These are all elected by popular
vote to serve a term of four years, but the
elections are hold every two years, so that
the council always contains members who
have had experience. The Board of Fire
and Police Commissioners elects a presi
dent, who is the executive ofllcer of the
taxing district, and has the power and
duties of a mayor; he has a salary of two
thousand dollars, inclusive of his fees as
police magistrate, and the other members
of his board have salaries of five hundred
dollars. The members of the Board of
Public Works serve without compensation.
No man can bo eligible to either board who
has not been a resident of the
district for five years. In addition,
there is a Board of Health, appointed
by the council. This government has
the ordinary powers of a city govern
ment, deiinea carefully in the act, but it
can not run the city in debt, and it can not
appropriate the taxes collected except for
the specific purposes named by the Btate
Legislature, .which specific appropriations
are voted annually by the Legislature on
the recommendation of the council. Thus
tho government of the city is committed to
eight men, and the execution of its laws to
one man, the president the taxing dis
trict, who has extraordinary power. The
ilnal ouccess of this scheme will be watched
with a great deal of interest by other cities.
On the surface it can be seen that it de
pends upon securing a non-partisan council,
and an honest, conscientious president of
tho taxing district that is to say, upon
the choice by popular vote of the best eieht
men to rule tho city. Up to this time, with
only slight hitches, it has worked exceed
ingly well, as will appear in a consideration
of the condition of the city. Tho slight
hitch mentioned was that tho presidont
was accused of using temporarily the sum
appropriated for ono city purpose for an
other. , ,
The Supreme Court of the United States
oecidod that Memphis had not evaded its
ligations by a change of name and form
"I government. The result was a settle
ment with the creditors at fifty cents on
ttasioUar; and then tho city gathered itself
for a courageous effort and a new
aof prosperity.
AN ARRANT HUMBUG.
Idea That Age Lends Great Value to
AVinee Without Foundation.
Now, what are the real facts about old
wines? asks the Mirror. After fermenta
tion, which is a process of decay, wine will
netenorate unless preventive measures
are 'taken, such as keeping the wine in a
wo'or even temperature, the addition of
uconol, boiling (tho vinum cottum of the
ocans and tho vino cotto of modern Ital
ians), and the complete exclusion of the or
dinary atmosphere by good corks, by sealing-wax
or by oil. Tho most common
method for preserving wine in modorn
fines is by adding alcohol and by corking
and sealing. The alcohol in wines prepared
tw tugland ls olton in 8UCD proportions
mat the wina ceases to be any thing like the
juice of tho grape, and too often is as
na!J"-elass of brandy and water. But
witn. all these precautions there is a time

When I first went to reside in Portugal a
Present was made me of a few bottles of
port wine, of the famous vintage of 1820.
fort wine, having naturally more sugar,
has consequently more alcohol, and thus
more of resistance to decay and deteriora
tion. This port, when I drank it, was in its
wtieth year, and It had become the color of
auterne, and was more like a liqueur, and
whiter than the port of the vintage of 1847.
ipout the same time I also tasted some port
mo that was nearly seventy years old. It
was nearly white, aud seemed to have no
P81 wine character. InlSTlMr. Rabello,
we Brazilian Consul at Oporto, made me a
present of several bottles of port wine of

century it was not the custom in any part
of Europe to put a lot of fiery alcohol into
any kind of wine, and when they diil add
spirit to port wino it was a little of that
which had been distilled from port This
1793 wine had probably been thus treated,
but with all the sealing wax and a once
good cork, tho beverage was as unvinous
and tasteless as if it had been water dipped
up from a pond and bottled. Therefore I
doubt if tho Bavarian wines so sedulously
advertised in England as those of 1510,
1640 and 1731 have any virtue in them, even
if they bo genuine wines of those dates.
They are really insipid stuff not worth a
ponny a gallon.

Down in Florida not long ago a family lost
a child which they supposed had strayed

the parents upon going to tho door tho next

them back their darling child; they sold the

How to Restore Colors.
It is customary, says tho Scientific a mar
can, to use ammonia for tho purpsso of neu
tralizing acids that have accidentally or
otherwise destroyed tho color of fabrics.
This must be applied immediately, or tho
color is usually imperfectly rottored. After
careful use, an application of chloroform
will bring out the colors as bright Qo'ovor.
Plush goods and all articles dyed with ani
line colors, faded from exposure to ligbt,
will look as bright as ever after s;:,ra Tin?
with chloroform. Tho commercial chloro
form will answer the purpose very vvoU.
