Production Of Amber.

The little fishing village of Schwarzot, situ>
ated on the shore of the Baltic, between Memel
and Dantzc. about two leagues to the south of
the former place, has within the last three
years acquired certain importance owing to
the discovery of 3 large bed of amber. This
bed is situated near the Cape Korning, and is
believed to be extensive. Four steam dredges
are employed for the collection Of amber, as
we'll as . considerable number of dredges
worked by hand. The amber is found almost
uniformly in separate nodules, with Ignite.
disseminated in the sands at depth of from
10 feet to IL feet. The dredging is carried on
day and night. by shifts Of eight hours each.
About four hundred persons are employed at
this work, and their wages are on an an aver
age thirty-two. silver groschen (2s. I'd per
shift. The quantity Of amber collected is con.
siderable, amounting to some 286 lbs. per
Shift and for six days work 5,IS4 lbs. The
sand is sent en- shore. when it is washed, in or
der to find the amber. aa@
june is one Of the best months of the sums
mer. to lay down q tub or jar of good butter.
If those persons who make inferior butter
could spend few weeks among the butter
dealers Of our large cities, they would per-
ceive how much CLEAN CASH they lose, by not
performing every thing just as it should be
done. 1t requires just as much milk, labor,
and everything else, to make one hundred
pounds Of poor butter, as to produce the same
amount Of : delicious flavor. One Kind will
sell for fifty cents per pound, while the other
will not sell for twenty cents. Surely, . but
ter~maker can afford to perform more brushing
up, washing, scrubbing and careful neatness
than was ever exercised before, for the sake of
The extra thirty cents on every pound. The
most scsupulous nestness from beginning to
end is absolutely essential, il you would make
good butter. -
The English Government is faithfully
: executing fts promises with regard to
Abyssinias The liberation OF the cab
tives being effected, they hasten to evac.
uate the country. Already two reai-
ments have embarked for Bombay, and
the remainder Of the troops were to be
shipped % rapidly a. possible. The
campaign has undoubtedly been a grand
success, and cannot fail immensely TO
strengstsn the rule Of England In India
and other foreign colonies, and her pres.
tIgs with oil the still independent mon.
archs Of Asia and Afrioa, especially
With the new ruler Of Abyssinis.

Never In the history of this country mas
there been prosecution 50 unfoundea ana
dIisrracef,ll outside of mayors court courts. as
that now progressing at Washington against
Mr.. JOHNSON. The opening speech Of the
prosecution, made by Mr.. BUTLER, Was not
above the dignity Of the defamation Of
the shysters Of the Tombs. There never
was so complete breakdown of any
prosecution. It was disgusting to all men
of ordinary perceptions, and must have
been notifying to the relentless Judges.
Yet It Is more than probable that the
President Is to be removed. The event
will be the most painful indication Of the
decline, Il not the death, of public virtue,
and the extinction Of right and justice In
this land. There could be no clearer proof
of the utter failure Of the Republic, and
the entire preparedness Of the body-politic
to submit to the imperial authority which
should, as natural result, be at once
stretched over the land.

Hunnicuttana,

peration of the Prophet Of Hunnicutt Hail.
His piety and pathoS are admirable. he
continues to demand justice, which he will
assuredly get some day or other!
PEsTIFERoUs AND SELFISH SET.
"There are, however, in our humble
opinion, q class of men in our State who
are not seeking the welfare of the State,
and who care nothing for the people fur
Their than that they hope to get hoisted in
to office by the vote Of the people,"
This is true. HUNNIcUTT Is their chief
"FoR THE LOVE OF GOD !! " AS BANDITS SAT-!
evil the Union men of Richmond be

Offices which do not pay, and others be ap-
pointed to lucrative Offices 7"

Mr.. Glenn Censured.


As We predicted, the unfortunate Mr..
GLENN, who charged corruption upon GER
tain members of the New York Legisla-
ture, has himself been the victim and it
is not so extravagant conclusion after all
that he may thank bis stars that the &C
cused didn't hang him. BE charged rdi-
rectly one Mr.. FREAR "a member) with at
tempting to bride him. Mr.. FEAR was.
after investigation, unanimously acquitted.
This investigation took such turn that
poor GLENN must have been completely
bewildered. All the little hints and sug-
gestions about brides for votes, the wit
nesses said, were only "jokes." But they
went on to show by concurrence of state
ments that G1.ENN's desire for share OF
the brides was sharply whetted. He de-
clared he "wanted to see the elephant
HE, most assuredly, was gratiied.] The
jokers averred that they sent him to one
LEWIS, a Jew, whom they called
Dutchman." LEWIS testified that ne
too; was joking, as we're they all. HI
told G. that the Central was giving $500
for a vote, but Erie gave $500 cash, ant
promised another $500 after the vote wa
given. This was joke; but he repre-
sented Mr.. GLENN as appearing to wan
money very badly. The upshot of tn
whole was, that it was no joke with Mr.
GLENN, and he, the accuser, comes GU
the convict. "The thieves have boun'
the true man." There'll be no more &C
cusations of bribery in the New York lie

The Southern Murders-The Radicals.
The New York Tribune invoked the
wrath of all the Radical gods upon the
South on account Of the murder of one
AsHBURN, negro-worshipper, In Georgia.
This deed it charged upon the Z. K. KS.
The very next day after the publication
of the account of this murder in that fell
paper, and It's infamous comment there
upon, it published as part Of the news OF
the associated press, which it could not
exclude, the intelligence that five white
asouthern" men had been murdered in
Alabama, among them JOHN P. HOWARD,
a one-armed Confederate soldier, who was
shot from his horse about four miles from
Selma. This news the Tribune gives with
out comment. 1t cannot consistently
charge the murders to the (. 4. KS, and
will not charge them to negro clubs, for
those it is bound, as a party necessity, to
defend There is no appeal to General
MEADE to put them down, and General
MEADE does not himselfsee the necessity,
notwithstanding the patent villainy and
brutality of those clubs, one Of which, on
March goth, paraded through the streets OF
Macon, Ca, with the efigy of negro
dangling from gibbet, and this inscription
under it: "Every man that don't vote the
"Radical ticket, this is the way we want to
"do him."
The K. K. KS are outlawed because
AsHBURN is dead. Nobody is outlawed
because of the assassination of HOWARD
and his four Confederate associates-in-
death at the hands of black assassins.
Nor are there any arrests.
Well does the New York Times ask :
"Has impartial justice anything to do with
"the pacifcation Of disturbed land, or
:" is impartial suffrage supposed to be all
1" Sufficient ?'

Negro Congressman

DR.. BAYNB NEGRO dentistl. is out for
Congress in the Norfolk district, and Nor
TON {mulatto) has proclaimed himself a
candidate for the Williamsburg district.
Colonel PLATTE, Of Petersburg, (whose
name he would like, probably, to change
to Plattsburg!) has his ambition to get
into the House of Representatives at WASH
ington greatly excited, and will vigorously
dispute the claims of the black dentist.
They are in the same district, and their
jealousy has been manifested In several
bouts Of personal character during the
hundred days of the Convention. PLATTE
has denounced BAYNE as scoundrel, and
BAYNE has promised to prove the Colonel
another" The war will be bitter be-
tween them unless the caucus retires one
or both.
In NoRToy's district, convention is to
be held at Williamsburg next Friday.
Rev. Mr.. WHITE, l,ohitd, of New York;
who challenged BUTLER (sept the chsl-
lenge by Q negro), and who came near
having his head cracked by the negroes at
williamsburg for scandslous attack upon
NORTON, is very anxious to 60 to Congress,
and Will try and juggle NORTON out of the
nomination. The blacks, who have warmed
the adder into life, will probably feel the
sting YETI The Williamsburg tactics-or
Z ssteks--as exhibited on the occasion of the
wsf between WHITE and NORTON, may be
again called In to aid in the great work of
y self gogernnent.'
'+ " Is $ fearful time with these hungry
vnltures. The white condors will not let
tho black ynltures have a great deal, if
they can manage matters to suit them
selves. The game Is one that can excite
nothing but disgust and contempt outside
OF the dsprayed faction in which it is
played. i ~ -.

Election Of State officers.

will there be an election for State
officers at the time the vote is taken upon
the ratification of the Constitution The
newest reconstruction act empowers the
various State Conventions to decide this
question for themselves. Our Convention
has not yet decided 1t either way; but
from the fact that the Radicals hold con.
vention early in May to nominate candi-
dates, We Judge that there will be an ordi-
nance passed providing for the election OF
all State officers at least.

that the registration lists, which, as cur
readers are aware, the law. requires to be
re5pened fourteen days previous to every
election, soia be opened only at the uarious
oos,nty-seats or court-houses. This is an
unfortunate decision for the white voters,
large numbers Of whom. neglected to re-
gister their names last fall. They must,
however, make the necessary sacrifice Of
time and money, and have their names
registered. This is en- important matter,
