We present, in the above, table made ont
by a very competent and reliable gentleman.
The table necessary leaves out great deal
which not being concentrated. but done
diffusely and by first hands, could not he OBJ
tanned. So We may safely say that The *
ports very nearly reach iOur millions per an
NUN. aud all occur during the period OF navi-
CATION.
The above, which we clip from the Clarks-
vile Chronicle gives a favorable account of
the trade of that place. We have Observed
with pleasure the rising Importance Of Clarks-
Vile. If it had manufactures proporlioDate
to its farm products and shipping interests,
IL would take it's place at once among the
large cities. II is surrounded by a soil fer.
tile and peculiarly adopted to the production
Of the rich, heavy tobaccos so much sought
for in the English markets in the form Of
strips. II has twelve factories employ ed in
extracting the stem from the leaf, and six
warehouses al each OF which there is during
the selling season, weekly inspection and
sale. These sales are well attended by
board of buyers. both local and foreign; and
prices frequently rule higher there than in
New Orleans, and this for the reason that
the tobacco is more uniformly superior and
because 1t is often purchased for direct ship
ment to Europe.

ONEDOLLAR 1t is too much, exclaims
the person desiring cheap articles for the res
toration of the hair! We have however
in our experience found that articles which
command seemingly exorbitant prices, are in
the end cheapest to the purchaser. Precari-
Gus articles are always put up in small pack
ages, and eficacious medicines are not con-
sidered dear at any price. One doller being
the prices of Professor Hoods Hdjr Restora-
tire, for the smallest size or trial bottle, is a
sufficient guarantee that the trial bottle con-
tains more precious ingredients, in proof of
which its sale has increased one hundred fold
within the past year.

what Kge Might Have Reen.

Holland. the funny editor Of the Spring
fed (Mas.) Republican, has been up to
Vermont, where he came from, and thus
sketches what he should have been if he had
Nc, left home and become an editor:
Your correspondent would have grown
s.alwart and strong, with horny hands and
iaca as black as the ace of spades He would
have taught school winters. worked on
farm summers, and gone out haying fifteen
days in July, and taken for pay the iron
work and running gear of a wagon. At two
and twenty, or there-abouts, he would have
begun to pay attentions to girl with fa-
tter worth two thousand dollars; and a spit
cuh on her forehead-a girl who always
ven: to singing school, and sat in the seats
aOd sung without opening her mouth, a pretty
girl anyway. Well, after seeing her home
from singing two or three years, taking her
to Fourth Of July celebration, and getting
about a hundred dollars together, he would
marry her and settle down. Years would
pass away, and that girl with the spit curl
would have eleven children-just as sure as
you live-seven boys and four girls. We
should have a time in bringing them up,
but they would soon be able to do the milk
Ing and help their mother Oh wash days, and
getting little independent at last and feel
1g little stiff in the joints, would be elected
member of the Legislature, having been an
assessor and on the school committee for
!aar8 In the evenings of my days, with
ny pipe in my mouth, thirteen barrels OF
eder in The cellar, and a newspaper in my
hands, I should sit and look over the markets
trough pair of gold-mounted spectacles,
aad wonder why such a strange silly piece as
tbs should be published"

TERRIBLE Explosion at Columbus.

The Ohio Statesman of Thursday gives an |
account of the terrible explosion aud loss of
life in that eity:-Yesterday afternoon, about
half past four o'clock fire was discovered in
the extensive dry house attached to the Tub
and Bucket Factory of Messrs. Crary, Hughes
& Beebe, on the west side of the river. The
building, which is three story brick, was
full of cut timber in the process of drying,
and for some time after it was discovered, no
flames were seen, but an immense cloud of
smoke ascended from the roof When the
first engine reached the spot. men aud boys
were passing water in buckets to door in
the second story, which is reached by fight
Of steps, ,and is surrounded by an open plat
form thirty feet high. This platform was
crowded with men forty or fifty in number.
For few minuts after the first stream of
water was thrown, the mass ofgas aud smoke
seemed to increase In volume an6 density
when suddenly it ignited--the flames burst
out in all directions, with an xplosion like
that of gunpowder, which swept the platform
clean, pitching those who stood upon it to
J the ground in a mass, distance of some
thirty feet The scene at this point was al
| together the most frightfnl we ever beheld,
but by miracle no person killed, though all
were somewhat injured. The burning ap-
peared to be the worst part of it Seven or
eight persons, who were standing close to the
wall, were terribly burned. Among these
was one young man connected with the Neil
