FUN AND FANCY
BUFFERS MEDICINE.


Buffer was lawyer, Of Lincoln |
county, Maine. Once upon time
Buffer took the steamer at Portland
en- route for Boston. I won't say
that the steamer was the Estate Of
jfaine," nor that the season was in
the summer OF 1860, because people
might then look back and hunt up
my steward, and demand of him If
he had q medical diploma. But Buff
fer told me the story himself and
as Buffer was there, and as Buffer
is truthful, the same may be relied
upon.
The steamer had cleared the
capes aad the islands, a9RHas well
ont at sea, when Buffer, kpany
with three legal friends, approached
thessewart, in his retired apartment,
for thsspurpose, ifpossible, Of OBJ
tanning something stimulating and
exhilarating in the shape of beve-
rage. The Prohibitory Law was
stringent, and its officers were vigil
ant. But Buffer was hopeful.
Steward! Steward" hegroaned,
pressing bis hands upon his dia-
phragm. and exhibiting signs Of
pain, "can you not let me have a
drop of brandy? 1 arr suffering"
"Ah-yah. Is dat Won, Mister
Buffer?" The steward had seen
him before.
"Yes-and Ira in a bad way, too,
Steward. / think it must have been
the lobster salad we eat at the Pre-
BILE House for supper. My friends
here are taken in the same way. A
drop of brandy would relieve u.s."
"But-bress yer souls! I CAM
sell brandy for bev'rage. IT.
agin the law. The Cap'n won't al
low it.
"Ah-well-if dat's de case, III
see what l can do"
And presently the Steward sum
moned the party to bis room, anG
set before them black bottle anG
J and four small glasses. The adven
turers INDUCED.
, "And now. Steward" demanded
: Buffer, when he had smacked hi
lips and wiped his moustache,
whats to pay?'
: 9TH be Jest four dollars and for
ty cents, gentlemen"
, -Four dollars and-Bah You ar
) joking" "No, Mister Buffer,
: mean jes' 'zactly what say.
charge you ten cents apiece for d
: med cine,a and one dollar for de Phys
, Clans fee" =.
+ Buffer paid the bill, but conclude
a that his next medical practitione
: should be consulted in Boston

The ConI TronhIr.

The employers in Schuylkill, Northumber-
land, and Columbia counties, Pa, have made a
proposition to the working miners, which ought
to be successful. They propose to pay the
miners fixed wages, without regard to what is
called "a basis" that is to say, they offer to dis
card the sliding SCALE" and pay wages that
shall not change with the price of coal. This
method of paying wages would do more than
anything else to prevent such troubles as now
exist. No other system should have been
adopted in the mining regions. The "basis
system" is, naturally, constant source of con-
troversy. What would happen in our shops, if
wages were regulated by sliding scale which
should be made to vary with every variation in
the prices paid manufacturers for their goods?
There would be constant dispute in regard to
these variations, and the workmen would be
constantly influenced by a fear of being cheated.
The system of fixed wages prevents trouble,
and much will be gained in the coal regions, if
it can be established there.
1t has not been shown clearly whether the
miners or their employers are chiefly response
bic for the sliding scale system; but it can now
be said in favor of the employers, in the cour-
ties named, that they have proposed to set it
aside. They appear, however, to doubt whether
the miners will consent to have it set aside; for
they suggest the possibility of rejection of
their offer, and propose an alternative. If the
miners insist on retaining the "basis system, .
the employers will agree to this; and they pro-
pose to reach an agreement concerning wages
under this system, by asking Judge Elwell to
decide between the $3.50 basis offered by the
employers, and the So basis claimed by the
miners. 1t is hoped that this negotiation will
lead to a satisfactory arrangement for the re-
sumption of work.

MISCELLANEOUS Dispatches.
Domestic Notes.

ITEMS FROM NEW YORK.
New YORK, April A.-Superntendent Van
Horne, of the Western Union telegraph COM
pany, reports that the danger to the New Or
leans and Jackson railroad and telegraph lines
by the crevasse at Bonnet Point is very serious.
English papers report the death Of Schamyl
recently at Media.
The failure of the Buffalo iron works, owned
by Charles Wadsworth, was the result of the
coal strike. Wadsworth had stock enough on
hand of miners coal to run for eight months,
and had plenty of good contracts, but he had
only coal for one furnace in place of two for the
last three months, and was compelled to suffer
loss on his operations. The capital invested is
81 100000. The liabilities are said to be $780,
900. 1t is thought thar arrangements will be
made to continue the concern under a new
management AT present 800 men are out of
employment.
THE GREAT CREvAssE.
NEW ORLEANS, April 24-Assistant State
Engineer Hatch, writing yesterday from Bonnet
Care crevasse, says: at is now from 900 to $50
feet wide, and vast volume Of water PUSHES
through with a roar like thunder, piling itself
up in the middle in the form of an arch, of which
the centre is five orsiX feet higher than the sides
The torrent has cut its channel through the front
battuse fifty feet, while steadily, foot by foot, the
great levee crumbes into its boiling waters"
The closing of this crevasse is beyond the range
of possibilities, so the next best thing is to pre-
vent, if possible, the widening of the breach. A
continuous body of water extends from here to
Lake Pouchartrain, and for many miles above
and below. The disaster is great and dcplorable,
and is beyond the reach Of remedy, as every one
who has seen it admits.
