The resent Premier of the Dominion i the Honorable Alexander ,'Mackenzie. e WAS called by the Governor-Geuerah Lord Dufferin, itt 18'73, to form a Cab- inet on the downfall of Sir John A. Mac- donald''s Ministry, the latter having been eonvioted of selling the charter of the Canada Pacific Railway to Sir Haigh ea Ilan for about $300,000, which money was expended in. 1872in carrying the elections to sustain Sir John's Govern- ment. Ile was unanimously -chosen by the Reform party to theleadership in the Government, ache had been -the chief of that party in Parliament for some time. He dissolved Paeliameixt° in Dec., 1873, and is general election was held in Janu- ary, 18-74, The election resulted in the Reformers returning 154 members, and the Opposition -had barely fifty seats. With each an enormous ous, majority a party leader might readily have become intoxi- cated with the power in his hands, but Mr. aekenzie's ;administration has been marked with economy and success, and he has steadily pursued the policy he has always advocated during a long Par- liainentary careen:, favoring internal im provd meats, and the extension, of com- mercial relations ; and he has- the satin faction to know that he is now more popniar in the country than when he as- sumed the reins of Government, having demcnistrated the possessionof rare executive abilitiea and statesmanlike views. He is really a Reformer and Liberal in his ideas. As a Parliamenta- rian, during fifteen years of public ser- viee, he disclosed rare powers as a ready mild formidable debater. Hehas been an advocate of temperance, and his per - utiles o market, getting f oto_ 1Q aton; all of which was saved, since lig c;ar led his victuals hi a round box, and bell clothes, so that be 'Could sleep in the wagon. `len years ago he was 60 years old, and he was so crippled in various ways with' hard work, laving varibose vents 'and rapture, e,am some other little things; that their farm, which had become the best in the county, was sold, bringing over $12,0U0, and this,;.

His style is easy but direct, his speech .slightly tinged with a Scottish accent. He is tall; erect aaad spare, his hair and beard tinged with gray. He is always stare of an attentive audience wherever he speaks. He is probably the most practical statesman the Dominion pos.- sesses, his ideas being plain and utili- tarian. We have given this sketch in detail to show what brains, backed by energy, temperance and thrift- w 1 ac- complish. when directed aright. Here. was a mechanic, poor, unlettered and friendless, who, by self -culture, integ- rity, perseverance and noble aims, draws about bine the confidence and admira- tion of a numerous constituency, and finally places hien in the highest position in the gift of a people numbering four and a half millions. A people,also, whose traditions are averse to the eleva- tion of the plebian to the highest honors, and where fancily influence, and posi- tion, too, often have more weight in the advancement of men than the possession • of character or intellect.—Rockeste}- t E'ue-nig E.rlrresss of Jan. 18th. is 4, Boys on t Thus takes away the animal taste, so of- fensive to some, and does pot so. harden the white or yolk •as to make them hard to digest. . An egg if cooked very hard is difficult of digestion, except by those with stoat stomachs.; such eggs should be eaten with bread :and masticated very finely. " An excellent sandwich can ``be made with eggs and brown bread. 'An egg spread on toast is food fit for a king, if kings deserve any better food than anybody else, which is doubtful. Fried eggs are less wholesome than boiled ones. An egg dropped into hot water is not only a clean and handsome, but; a deli- cious morsel. Most people veil, the. taste -of their eggs by adding pepper and salt. A little sweet butter is the best - dressing. Eggs contain much phos- phorus, which is supposed to be useful to those who use their brains much. • THE �.. age OLD ESTABLISH ED- ACRICULTURAL IMPLEMENT EMPORIUM, ie Farm.
