The trouble on the Chceves plantation,
South Carolina, SAYS the New York Trib-
uoe, between the negroes and United States
troops, was the result of long mismanage-
rlent. A little common sense would have
prevented it. The business relations OF
the freedmen to the planters in the South
do not need to be determined by military
power. and especially that power. should
not he always used against the negroes, as
it has been. We should nave no difficult
ties of this kind were we just TO the freed
men. AT the end of the war they expected
kindness; disappointed in that, they de-
mand justice, aud justice is all they need;
and we shall be satisfied if they get justice
and nothing more.

\ COpperheal editor in Indiana who gets
tigh; on mean whisky IS often as he can
get money enough TO send or so off for a
lug full, for none of the saloon keepers in
the town he lives will sell him drop, his
wife having notified them not TO do so, has
the bad taste to publish an extract giving
an exaggerated account OF the intemper-
ate habits of certain Republican Congress
men. Perhaps his object was to show that
others are a. depraved as himself. Misc
" loves company, and it is some graliti
cation, we suppose, to the depraved and
brutal sot to point TO those in high places
who are slowly but surely descending 10
liz level, and where they viii surely land
If they do not reform their habits in this
respect. We should think if the tears and
entreaties of their wives, children and
friends would not arrest them in their
downward course, and induce them to
forswear the maddening and DESTROYING
cup, the rebuke of such degraded wretch
certainly would. Could we believe that
he was actuated by az noble motive as
the rich man who died and lifted MP his
eyes in hell, in requesting father Abraham
10 notify his brethren not 10 como TO that
horrible place, we might honor him for the
spsrk of philanthrophy that still shoulder
ed in his breast, and even entertain slight
hope that the smouldering spark might yet
10 tlaxr-v, into hlaro ShorIl1 the IppiSla-
ture remove the temptation by iorbidding
the traffic in intoxicating liquors, but We
have no reason To infer that motive or
desire so honorable and philanthropic
could find Judgement in his whisky soak

Ons.-Oil boring, strange to say, has
been run into the ground. The quantity
thrown upon the market, together with the
diminished exportation, has reduced the
price so low that the smaller wells will not
pay for working and are in many cases
abandoned. Others are shutting off to
await better times and help work up the
price. Still others are storing away on the
ground for an advance. 1t is proper that
light should be the cheapest article We
buy.

ECONOMY IN DeoR SHUTTING.-Are all our readers aware how much they may save Tn one of our long winters, by simply shut ting the door? In many families where wood IS worth $5 a cord-in cities it costs double that prepared for the fre-twenty- five or even fifty dollars, to say nothing of the comfort, may be saved a year, which is enough to purchase five cords of wood. The Country Gentleman" hits the matter oH well Especially do we commend what he has to say to those very polite. women who reserve their long adieus till they can stand in the open outside door in cold day: s.
 ."Some persons when they make calls, seem never to have their tongues fairly lo0sened till on leaving they get precisely in the doorway-there they stand rolling out long and easy sentences, each one promising to be the last, for some two, three, five or ten minutes
 Now, for very brief calculation of the waste by this conduct. Hold lighted can de in the door-the current sweeps the flame as rapidly as walking three feet per second two miles per hour, consequent ly, through a door 8 yard wide and two yards high, a cubic yard of warm air pass es out per second through the upper half of the opening, and a cubic yard of cold damp, and chilling air comes in through the lower half All this will be proved by holding 1t at the sill and then at the top One cubic yard of warm air thus lost every second, is sixty cubic yards every minute the door is left open by the visitor or Bet ty. This is positive robbery-we leave it to our readers whether 1t should not be in- dicted by the Grand Jury. We prefer ven- dlation in some other way, and would echo our friends injunction.

PEikE UodRzR's BoNEs.-Abont twenty five thousand oxen are killed each week to supply the city of New York with meat.
 The bone known as the ..sshin bone, 1" and all the leg kofn. the knee to the hoof, falls into the hands of Mir. Peter Cooper. He contracts with the butchers and market menzto supply him, and in. this way about one hundred thousand shin bones per week find their way to his establishment. All the muscles are taken from them, the glu-
 ten is sextracted, and the clean white bone is kept to be worked up into parasol ham, dlessssw TsTaf sd5 so fsstial %1a dssR hsosa s4
 In this way Mir. Cooper has made an i'm mense fortune, and many ladies who sup posed they were admiring beautifully carved iEogy handle to their sunshades, IT. ding whips, etc, have only been gazing upon the shinbone of an OK, the very ami nal, perhaps, that supplied them with their mornings beefsteak!y Messrs. Har- vey & Ford use large quantities of ''Peter CoOper's bones;" they also manufacture box~ood iewelry, having over hundred different patterns for ear-drops alone! Bri- arwood and ivory pipes are made with a water-b bowl attachment to catch the oil and water which are always found in tobacco.
 This is claimed to be great improvement,
 and no doubt adds much to the comfort of thelsmokeE, Ivory in its raw state varies from two to five dollars per pound, accord ing to the quality.-N. r. Fee. Gaz.
