THE GAS OF THE AGE.
The New Orleans Hydro-Carbon Gas
3u light Company.

This company have just completed a series of
scientific experiments in the production of Hydro
Carbon Gas by "Sloper's patents, and can strongly
recommend these machines as the simplest
cheapest and most substantial gas machines ever
offered TO the public, producing gas five times
the Illuminating power of city gas, and at much
less cost. For churches, halls, sugar houses and
country towns this machine not be surpassed.
Orders for machines left at the company's office,
No. Carondelet street, New Orleans, with
Mtssrs Jocquish Co., bankers, Galveston. Texas,
will meet with prompt attention.

Internal Revenue Collections.

The amount of the internal revenue col.
lected thus far during the present fiscal
year is almost $I3l,OOo,O00, and the commits
sioner estimates that it will amount to about
$l46,000,0OO by the first of next month.
This is S20,0O0,000 more than Mr.. Delano es-
timated in his report last December, and
shows an increase of over sixteen per cent
in the business of the country from which
internal revenue is derived. As the pro
duction of whisky has greatly fallen off.
the increase in other branches must have
been considerable. 0 .t U

The last brute in the form of a school
teacher has turned up in Buffalo. He has
succeeded in getting into the papers and in
being the object of public meeting. He
pulled pupils ears, beat him, kicked him
till he was insensible and till the blood ran
from him, jerked him around the room by
the ears, and INDUCED in other wild brrl-
talities. When he had reduced the boy to
insensibility, he became alarmed and tried
to restore him. The boy went home and
has been very sick. The provocation for
this mild administration of punishment was
the failure of the boy to get into school at
bell ringing with perfect promptness. The
teacher showed himself a coward and
brute. and he deserves severe punishment
Parents generally do not like to delegate to
others the inhiction of ordinary punish
ment upon their children, and they certain
ly will demand the abolition of all such
measures in schools, unless they can be sure
that their children will be entirely exempt
from any danger of such proceeding as
that engaged in by this rampant Buffalo
bull.

There is peace again in the church family
of Shakers, the two clippers who went out
and were married having, in twenty four
short hours, become weary of the world and
its sinful ways, and returned to the shelter
ing fold again, where they were received
forgiveness. Ira, they say, was sInot snc6
a bad man, after all; he only cot a cal
notion" AS to the money matter fha
rumors were entirely groundless.

Watering Horses.

Horses should be watcred from a
brook, pond or river, and not wells OF
springs, asthc wen water is hard and
colder, while the running stream is soft
and rather warm. The preference of
horses is for soft, oven though it be
muddy water, to that which is hard.
Horses should be allowed in summer
time ut least four watcrings n day, and
Il half bucket nj Il time, and in winter
a pailful may he allowed morning and
evening, which is sufficient to asSuagc
their thirst without causing them to
bIoat or puff up. Care, however, should
be taken that the horse is not put to
work Immediately after drink ing u full
bucket of water, especially If they are
required to go fast, because digestion
and severe eXcrtiOn can never go to-
gethcr, and moreover pGrGing is apt to
ensue. In some cases, broken wind or
heaves is thus produced. Avoid Civ
ing warm or tcpu water to horses that
| are often driven from. home, because
cold or well water will then be given
them, which will be liable to produce
a congcstive chill, followed by lung
| fever, and in some eases collie. When
horses are thus carefully watcrcd, if
one or more OF them should refuse
their accustomed feed, something is
wrong, and they should not be taken
out of the stable TO work, or driven
further that day; but an examination
should be made as to the cause, with n
view to its rcnovai.-N. ". ft1U'cr.

Polished Shirts.

Put u little common wax in your
starch, say two ounces. to tho pound;
then if you use any thin patent starch,
be sure you use it warm, otherwise the
wax will get cold and gritty, and spot
your linen, giving il the appearance Of
being stained with grease. 1t is differ
cnt with collar starcl--it can be used
quite cold; however, oftirntanon. Now,
then, about polishing shirts; starch the
front and Wristbands rs stiff as you can.
Always starch, twice, that is, starch ANA
dry, then starch again. Iron your
shirt in the usual way, making the
linen nice and firm, but without any
attempt at 4 good finish; don't lift the
plcats; your shirt Is now ready for pol
ishinG, but you ought to have 4 board
the same size u common shirt board,
made of hard wool, and covered with
only one ply OF plain cotton cloth. Put
this board into the breast of your shirt,
then take q polishing iron, which is fiat
and bcvclcd ut one cni-poiish gently
with the hcvcird part, taking care not
to drive the linen into WuVc-iikc hfi%t-
ers; of course, this requires Il little t,rac-
tee, bat If you are careful and pcrStverc,
in u short tim" you vii! be able To give
that rnanlrl-lilic finish which &c"nS to

The Erie Dispatch says: We are
not able to give detailed particulars,
but can announce that the very thing
which the citizens of Erie have been
struggling so hard for to no purpose
direct road to the oil region will
soon be an accomplished fact, and
that without trouble or difficulty. 1t
is well known that the Oil Greek and
Allegheny River Railway (lessees of
the Pennsylvania CENTRALLY have Sc
cured perpetual lease of the Union
and Titusville Road. At meeting
of the directors Of the Oil Creek Road
it was decided to at once put down a
third rail, making 4 foot 81 inch
track, to correspond with the Phila-
delphia and Erie track, and freight
from Erie will run direct to Ttusville.
1t is further stated that there will be
no discrimination as against Erie in
the matter of oil and other freight.
Our information is from such source
that we have every reason to believe
its general correctness, and if it is rs
stated, it is the most important news
Erie has had for many year.

What it Means.

The North Carolina and Kentucky
elections possess real significance, for
an Interpretation of which no one, es-
pecially no Democrat of ordinary iu.
telligence, will be at a loss. In the
first place, the negro vote, on which
confessedly much depends, has not
gone nor is it going over to the Demo
cratic party. 1t remains the firm sup
port OF the Republican party, and in
the ensuing Presidential contest will
prove safe reliance to carry not only
North Carolina for the Republican
candidate, but so large a proportion
of the Southern States as at once to
destroy the expectations of the Demo
cratic leaders. For surely, if having
lost North Carolina this year, what
right has that party to expect to carry
the State next or South Carolina, or
Mississippi, or Louisiana, or Florida !?
And, having met with such heavy loss
es in Kentucky, with what reason can
it hope to hold on to Alabama or Ten.
nessee, or Virginia event These elec-
tion returns all at once change the
prospect as the Democratic leaders
have been picturing it to themselves,
