4 correspondent of tie Courier, writing
from he Crimea, gives the following picture
of society in that famous locality:
There are many, PERHAPS, who suppose,
from what they have read o! Russia, that the
manners, customs and sCciai society Of the
Russians would be far from agreeable to an
American; bot such is not ti fact; for in no
country that have ever visited have | seen
more politeuess and refinement tban exists
in the respectable circles Of Sebastopol. Al
though there are many points where etiquette
differs from ours, yet, rather than diminish
ing, it adds to the scciability OF the com rany.
For instance it might possibly shock the
sensihiliries Of an American lady to be told
that. during the recess Of a ball, the ladies' re-
tire to their apartment, (wherc no gentleman
dares enter, J light their paper cigars, smoke
away, and chat merriiY. Also, atthe dinner
table, after the dessert, Gdl.s, as we'll as gen
tlemen, smoke their cigars aud take their
glass Of wine, and while the smoke is curling
up, their beautiful black eyes shine with ad.
dltional lustre"

Coal Trade.

During the past year, as we see by the Cum
befand Telegraph, j7I 1875 tons OF coal were
shipped from the mines OF that county, includ-
ing l34, 1872 from jennings Run Valley, 1874, 44q
from Braddock's Run, and 305,OU2 from the
George. Creek region These shipments show
a decrease as compared with the shipments OF
1886 of l42,l4 tons, OF which 32,5s7 tons oc-
CURED in the shipments from Jennings run,
100, 1865 tons from Braddock's run and $3.50 tons
from the Georges Creek region. There should
be added, however, the amount sent TO market
by the Hoffman and .Etna Companies, reports
from which have not been received. They will
run up the total annual shipments by the Cum
berland Company's road TO somewhere in the
neigh borhood OF 10000, and make the aggregate
shipment from tine whole coal region for the
year about 6O0,O0O tons, or 10000 tons less
than the year previous. Since the first ship
ment of coal in 1912 there has been shipped
from the whole coal region 4,2Sl, $50 tons.

the late Naval Retiring Board, requests Us to
correct nisapprcheusion in his case that
would otherwise grow out of our announce

On what is man? He's but at best
The simple being OF day,
He fingers here little while,
And then is ta'en for eer away.
His time on earth indeed is short
His life is but feeting shade,
a little fow'r, that buddeth forth,
1t blooms, and then-tis sure 10 fade.
And what are all life's pleasures, too,
An! what is honor, riches, fame!
When time with us shall be no more,
Or rich, or poor, It's all the same
There is treasure all can gain,
But not Of the "earth earthly given,
Twill take us thro this vale OF tears,
And then will land US safe IL Heaven.
Il comes from God, alone, on high,
Who over earth hath full control,
Thro His Astounding, powerful, grace,
It's religion in the soul,
Ithelps us thro these worldly scenes,
Nor ends it with our dying day;

DELIBERATE AND MELANCHOLY SUICIDE -
A young man named VIM. IL. Cloves, a
native of Amherst county, Va, committed
suicide in Richmond on Thursday morning.,
by taking lau 1arum. From the attending
circumstances, it appears 10 have been a
long premedtated act and he was OF 20
trouble 10 conceal his purpose from his &C
quaiutanccs. For some time past, be has
been engaged in writing for the Board of
Public Works, but recently has had no emu
pl0yment His spirits were often much
depressed, and he frequently gaee utteranCe
to despeiring thoughts, conveying the I'm
preston that he had nothing worth living
for. Yesterday afternoon, he went I" the
room Of friend, opposite the Board Street
Hotel, and there wrote several letters an
nouncing his deliberate Intention to destroy
himself, a determination arrived at after
years Of reflection On the subject. Daring
the evening. three or four gentleman came
in, and he stated that he had taken an ounce
aud half of laudanum. They, however,
seem to have discredted this assertion, for
no effort was made to save bis lie. About
i O'Clock, when Mr.. Shay the occupant OF
the room, was preparing u retire, he went
TO the bed wherein Gloves was lying, and
found him cold in death.
Cloves, was in Kansas during the former
troubles there H. afterwards served un-
der Gen. Walker in Nicaragua; and was
