A rough-looking specimen of humanity
was recently promenading up Chatham
street, New York, when he came plumply
upon Jew, a specimen of his race, about
whom there is no mistake.
Without word of warning, the rough
knocked him sprawling into the gutter.
Picking himself up, and taking his bleeding
nose between his finger and thumb, he de-
manded an explanation.
"Shutup; I'll bust yon agin' p shouted
the aggressor, approaching him again.
II have never done notings init you, and
what for you mash me in de nose?" asked
Abraham.
s.Yes, yer hev; yer jews crucified Jesus
Christ, and have mind to go for you
again."
"But, mine Colt, dat wash eighteen hun
dred years ago." said the Jew.
"Well, don't care if it was; only heard
of it last night, replied the unwashed; and
he went for him again.

Growth of the Petroleum Trade.

According to the annual report of the
New York Chamber Of Commerce, Just is
sued, the exports of petroleum in 1870 were
thirty-seven per cent greater than those of
the previous year. and that nearly all this
increase, or thirty-three per. cent, is ac-
counted for by the shipment from the port
of New York. The total export from the
United States in 1870 was 14l, 208, 155 gal
Ions, against 500, 900 in 1860, and SO, 281 700
gallons in 1868, showing an increase of
nearly 42,000,000 gallons in two years. The
first sale noticed for export was in May,
1861, when 100000 gallons were sent to
foreign markets. Antwerp, which has
since led all other ports in the importation
OF petroleum, took in that year 567l gal
Ions, increasing the amount in the follow
ing year more than 100000 gallons. Great
Britain 579, 900 in 1861, and in 1862 increased
her importation to {, 23S 900 gallons The
continued growth of this trade for ten
years-from 100000 gallons in 1860 to
l4l ,000, 900 in lS70-is wonderful exhibit,
not only on the account OF the rapid devel-
opment of the oil interest, but also because
the yearly increase has been steady. The
daily average product of the Pennsylvania
oil district in December, 1867, was 1Q,400
gallons; In the same month of 1870 itswas
1924 gallons-a fact which shows the mex
haustibllity of the wells in that region. In
regard to the home consumption, it is esti-
mated that it is equal to one-half the guam
tity exported, making in round numbers an
aggregate consumption of 2ll 100000 gal
Ions annually. This enormous amount,
reckoning the price at an average of twenty
cents per gallon, represents value of more
than $42, DOC. 900 for single year-certainly
a. remarkable return for aproduct unknown
to commerce ten years ago.

DENECHAUD's PAVILION BUREED.-Mil-
neburg had a warm sensation last night in
the burning of Denechaud's pavilion. 1t
was owned by the Pom tchertrain Railroad
Company, and was probably worth about
three Thousand dollars; uninsured. Mr..
Denechaud had lease. His loss is not
great; no insurance. The fire commenced
in the oil room, but it is not known how.
Tonight, the lessee intended giving ball,
the last of the season, in the building. This
will be bad news to the frequenters of that
locality, as the place had gained some favor
in the estimation of visitors to that section.
