MONDAY MORNING. NOVEMBER Is, 1854.
Winter the Price of Fuel aud the Way to save 1t.


Winter is upon US, and no mistake. The
thermometer on Saturday morning indicated
only sixteen above zero at sunrise, and there
was no material moderation during the day. be-
yond that which clouded sun, far now be-
You'd the equator, was enabled to shed at bis
present angle oflcss than thirty degrees.
Dry wood, such as we are forced now to use
until the streams are bridged by ice, and the
Shedding becomes good from the country, is
selling in our streets at five dollars per cord
The general character of the dwellings in St.
Paul heretofore erected appears to have been
formed upon studied plans by their construc-
tors to build them with view to consuming
as much fuel as possible. As a case in point, Il
very particular friend Of ours resides in a
small rented tenement, of two stories. with
parlor, dining room and kitchen on the first
floor, and sleeping departments above. Had
the house been properly constrGctedone stove.
aside from the cook sestablishment,wouldh have
been amply sufficient to make comfortable, in
the coolest of weather, the entire house. A
good large stove, that would cost not over fif-
teen dollars. could have been placed in the
parlor, with pipe passing through into the
dining room, where a large drum might be
placed and from thence pass the pipe with
another drum up through the second floor into
the family apartments, and thus saving OF
wood for two fires might enter into the house
hold economy. But the partitions, stairways
and fue. are so constructed, that this saving
of fuel to our frend-which would also be a
saving to the community at targets out OF
the question. He has necessarily been to the
expense of purchasing three stoves. where
one would have answered must burn three
cords Of wood the winter instead of one, and
send through his chimney tops into space above
his roof, twothirds of the heat, which he pays
dearly for, that might. under other circum,
stances. be economised within his walls.
There are many houses in st. Paul that
may be heated with much more economy than
they are, by providing for the greatest extent
of iron surface, III the shape of drums
and pipes, that the construction Of the apart
mcnts will, with safety. allow : and citizens, Ill
view of the duration of our winters aid the
high price of fuel. should take all these points
into consideration in arranging for the cold
weather. But hereafter we must look more to
these points in the construction OF our dwell
ings. Fuel is bound to appreciate in price III
this country as the country becomes more
thickiy populated, and the man WHO persists
! in the old plan Of building q house that Will re-
qure more wood to keep it in operation than
is needed to run an average sized steamboat
must in the end pay dearly fer his folly.

The Power Of the Pence.
A TRUE MANCHESTER STORY.

The Rev. J. b. Owen, NJ. A., of Blston, in
the course Of lecture delivered in the Liver
pool Concert Hall, in connection with the
Church Of England institution, upon Popular
Insurance." related an anecdOte strikingly il
Illustrative of the power which lies in the hand
of the working men to promote their own COM
fort and independence, if they would only ex-
ert it.
\ Manchester calico printer was, on his we'd
ding day, persuaded by his wife to allow her
two half pints of ale IL day as her share. He
rather WINGED under the bargain; for, though
a drinker himself he would have preferred a
perfectly sober wife. They both worked hard.
and he, poor man, was seldom out of the pub
lie house as soon as the factory was closed
The wife and husband saw but very little of
each other except at breakfast but. as she
kept things tidy about her, and made her sim
ted and even selfish allowance for housckeep-
ing meet the demands upon her, he never com
planned. She had her daily pint and he per-
haps had his two or three quarts: and neither
interfered with the other. except when at odd
times she succeeded, by dint OF one or two lit
tie gentle artifce or another, to win him home
an hour or two earlier at night, and now and
then 10 spend an entire evening in his own
house. But these were rare occasions. They
had been married year and, on the morning
of their wedding anniversary. the husband

DECIDEDLY FEENCH.-The following decided
ly Frenchiiied affair at law. We find in one of
the recent Paris letters OF the regular CORES
pondent ofthe New York Times:
Mr. Paris, keeper of Cafe Concert. has had
lawsuit with one of his artstes Mrs Cara
cappa, Spanish lady, who was engaged to
sing boleros, ballads. with the accompaniment
of castagnettes. and with the additi ON of grace
full pastures and easy attitudes. She was not
to quit the platform till half past ten in the
evening" on week days and eleven on Sunday.
She had nine dollars week, and in short was
the principal attraction. All at once the man
ager perceived certain ncgli gcnce to cllarac-
teriZe her performances, aggravated by an alb
sencc of tab!eau and of castagnc1te lie cx-
pressed to the lady his op!nion that she was
abandoning her duty. lie even got some fire.
quenters of his cate TO sign a remonstrance
against the diminishing attractions of the fair
Spaniard. This was to the effect that she pre-
sented herself upon the platform stiflly, and
without that elegance of demeanor which was
won't to pervade her gait and action They
thought this negligence highly culpable and
regretted it, as they no longer found the same
pleasure IN her performances as formerly-
This affidavit was read to the CONT. and the
manager asked for damages. The other side of
the question was then heard. The lady's law
yer averred that his client. if she had exhibited
discomfort would not be Ilamed by an cnlight-
ened Court, inaSmuch As her mana ger had re-
fused to furnish her between her songs, the U.s.
ual quantity of a mug of beer and Il demitasse
of coffee. This transaction on the part of The
manager entirely changed the feeling of the
Court against him. They were on the point Of
awarding damages, but. upon reflection, de-
livered 4 verdict TO the following effect -
Whereas. it is evident that Madame Caracappa,
10y wllful negligence ofposturc and the bland
shments OF attitude. has done injury to an es-
Establishment which she contracted to serve
but whereas. the manager has 10y certain pro-
c:sses, needlessly c>tranged the good will of

ties. condemning them to share the costs. Mr..
