Commerce IN Bones.

The question what becomes of the bones is al
most as mysterious to many as what becomes of
the pins. The New York Express throws some
light upon the question so far New York is
concerned. 1t Is in that city considerable arti-
Gle of taffc. One boiling and cacining establish
ment alone in New York, employs eight men,
eight horses and four carts to collect bones from
the ehffoniers. Thigh bones of bullocks are OF
most value, they the only ones fit for a
turner's use; they are for tooth brushes, the
of the bone, giving the desired shape to that nds
pensible article for the toilet. They worth
from ten to twelve cents each. The jaw bones
rank next, and are worth SIS thousand. The
':short" bones, as they are termed, such as leave
the family table, are worth from 40 to so cents a
basket. This ono house pays for bones alone an
average of 800 day. The fore leg and hoof are
usually bought by manufacturers of glue, and
when they are done with, they are sold to the
dealers at two cents pound The hoofs are dis
posed of at the rate of forty dollars ton and are
afterwards made into horn buttons and Prussan
blue. Horse hoofs and sheep hoefs and horns are
sold for fifteen dollars ton. On the arrival OF
the bones at the factory, the thigh and jaw bones
are sawed so as to admit the removal OF the mar
row. They are then thrown into a vast canldron
aud boiled until all the marrow and fatty sub,
stances attached to them thoroughly extracted
The fat is then SKINNED off and placed in coolers
and the bones deposited in heaps for assert
ment. The thigh bones are placed in one heap for
the turner's; the jaw and other bones suitable for
buttons are placed in second pile; the bones
suitable for "bone black" comes No 3; the re-
mander are ground up for phosphates and ma
nures. "Bone black" is used by sugar refners.
and is worth from 212 to 81 cents pound. Stu
arts, and the "Grocers'" refneries pay annually
in the neighborhood of $4,000 a year each for
"bone blacks" No. 2 is used in the manufacture
of phosphates. No. 8 is made into manure, and
is sold at prices ranging from IS to SIS cents bush
ell, according to quality, but generally averaging
about fifty cents delivered at the factory. Of the
amount of soap-fat produced from bone boiling,
the sales OF soap fat from oen factory from June,
1856, to June, 1857, amounted to $4,000. OF
his amount $4,000 was paid by one house This is
but a mciety ofthe amount the house annually pur-
chased.

The Outrage on Board the George
Page.

The Petersburg Express, referring to the savage
assault made on a passenger upon the George Page,
Alexandria steamer to Washington, by Latham,
agent of the omnibus line, says that il Latham In
retained in the service of the Orange and Alexsn-
d-ia Railroad after such an inhuman outrage, that
road will forfeit all claim to the patronage of the
community.
1t appears that another person. Mr.. James A,
Evans, is now engaged, whether permanently or
temporarily We do not know, in experimenting the
transportation of passengers and mails. As our
readers are aware, passengers by the Orange Rail
road to Washington are taken from the Alexandra
depot TO the boat in Latham's line Of omnibuses,
and from the boat again in WashingtoRby the same
limo to the Washington depot of the Baltimore
Railroad. 1t is a tedious process at best, and one
which diminishes the comfort and adds to the ex-
pense of the travelling community. There ought
to DO an uninterrupted line of railroad to the
Northern cities. At all events those who sub
sct, to the inconvenience of ths present arrange
ment, should be protected from personal violence
by its agents

The Arrest of Prominent Citizen OF
Rochester for an Alleged Attempt
at Poisoning.

at FOlSOn1hSs
1t was briefly announced by telegraph few
days ago that John B. Robertson, cashier of the
Eagle Bank, Rochester, had been arreseed,
charged with an attempt to poison his wife. The
Rochester Union of Wednesday, has che following
particulars
He was arrested this afternoon, on a warrant is
sued by Chief Justice Bardwell, ON the application
Of District Attorney Huson. The warrant charges
Mr.. Robertson with attempting to produce the
death Of his wife by administering certain medi-
cines--drugs or compounds procured by him for
that purpose. From what information we have
gathered from the District Attorney, may state
the facts briefly to be these:
Some days since Mr.. Robertson applied to DR..
Joseph Begler, his family physician, to admins
ter to Mrs Robertson some medicine which would
tend to hasten her death, by Increasing the labil
ity to certain diseases with which she was aflict-
ed. We understand that the diseases to which
she was deemed liable and strongly predisposed,
are apoplexy and disease of the heart. Hence,
medicines which would increase the circulation, it
is supposed would produce one or the other OF
those diseases.
Dr.. Beigler WAS surprised that such PROPOSE
ton bad been made to him, and at once consulted
certain citizens whom he regarded frienely to
him, and they went with him to the District At
torney. Under the direction OF that officer steps
were taken TO confirm the statement of DIR. Beigler
and the District Attorney states that they were
fully confirmed In every particular. DIR. B. gave
MIR. Robertson certain compounds from time to
time, which he, Robertson, supposed well designed
to produce the effect, and 1t Is believed that these
compounds were administered.
The arrest was made while MIR. r. was at his
piace behind the counter of the Eagle Bank and
must nave overwhelmed him, whether guilty or
innocent. lie was taken to the police Office to
await the arrival of the District Attorney who had
0one 10 dinner.

caught In such trap. Setting aside all considers
sions of the impudence Of the thing, for the evi'
den, reason that impotence is inseIaIable from
philanthropy, they must bid q good deal higher,
and give some assurance Of their pecuniary respon
sibiity, before they have the ghost of chance OF
buying half dozen of the "humsn chsttels."-

for this valuable negro! Couldn't begin, gentle
men to sell curl OF his hair for that amount
Suppose you start with average OF $500, instead
Of hundred and Fifty, and plank down the money

whole Cleveland Convention could purchase one
well stocked plantation, such as John Mitchell
sighed for in Alabama. Yet. from them and those
they represent must come the cash TO buy up three
millions; for the proposition that the Southern
States shall join the Northern in buying their own
property too preposterous to be thought of for
