Il wood Pavement a Fatlur..

This the question now being actively dis
cUssec ia the papers, and il is answered affirma-
lively ct negatively according to the success or
failure - the experiment in the localities fror,
vtcTre the answers come. In the western
cities where the wood pavement has been used
toT Yeas On an extensive scale the verdict Is in
its E'r, IL i probable that through large
experience with various kinds of wood pave
Hsnt they have settled upon the most useful,
ard have at the same time acc uired the requisite
experience 10 eIsure its being laid in the best
manner.
In The eastern cities the Use of wood pave
men e has been 50 slight ard desultory that the
data hss rot been obtained to institute com
parsons between different kinds; and the
manner OF laying them, either through haste or
ineSPerience has not been at all satis!ac,orv in
most instances.
In this city the experiment IL being tried IN
Pennsylvania Avenue. That street from heinz
the most exeera6le of carriage ways is now. with
Its wood pavement, one of the most sunerb
drives in the country, OF the world Yet tbers ia
great inequality in the diferen. kinds of
wood pavement used on the Avenue. and
some OF them are palpable failures. The
mistake was in using any but approved kinds
that have stood the test of experience elsewhere;
bnt the experiment on the Avenue will, at least
be useful in showing by comparison which is the
most servieesble pavement or the four varieties
used IL Is very desirable that Washington, as
Ihs metropolitan city, shall be made attr active
by is pleasant drives inviting people OF wealth,
leisure and cultivation to reside here, or spend
a considerable portion Of the year here; and no
Pavement vet invented seems so well adapted for
this particular end As the wood pavement. 1t is
Tot necessary that all the streets should be
paved with this material, but enough of the
leading streets to make q circuit of drives of
several miles that may be used through the year
and in all weathers. Bnt the wood pavement ex-
pertinent cannot stand the load OF any more
botch-work jobbery. Hereafter the interests of
the tax psyers must be protected, and some Sc
eurity afforded that proper pavements shall be
selected, and properly laid.

Conference of RaIIroaders.

The engineers employed on the Louis
vile aud Nashville failrosd and IFS
branches, lately appointed delegation to
visit Louisville and confer with the Presi-
dent, Superintendent and Assistant Super-
intendent Of that road, touching matters of
interest to themselves, and also to
the railroad company. Yesterday was
the time appointed for this confer
ence, and in the morning several engineers
left this end of the line for the purpose Of
being present. We ere not fully apprised
as to the purpose Of the engineers, but
suppose it has some reference to the regu-
lations of the company, requiring that
engineers be mads responsible for the
incidental breakage of machinery in their
charge. We also hear it said that they
will, at their conference, endeavor to have
the c6ious death warrant" which brake
meE and fremen are required to sign, either
entirely rescinded or materially modified.
Engineers, conductors and passengers are
interested in this matter, for the tendency
of such requirement as that implied in
this ghostly death warrant" will inevita-
bly, be to pIevent the employment of COM
petent.and trustworthy men.

DRIED FRUIT.


T;s Importance ss an Article of
Produce.
We are induced at the present time to
offer q few suggestions TO our country
friends with reference to the fruit crop.
The SEASON is about e open, and there is
every reason to believe that a rich harvest
is in store for those who will properly cut
and prepare their fruit for marke'. In
wears past. dried fruit has been source of
considerable revenue, and its importance
as a product of our country is becoming
greater each year, and is likely the APP
preaching season to be more extensive as
business than ever before experienced in
this market. Our information, well
founded, from different sections of our
State, is that the peach crop especially, is
much larger this ysar than for arly pre-
vious year since the war, and 1t is natural
to suppose that foreign capital will be as
ready as usual to be vested therein. Our
produce men here, always wide awake,
nave hitherto paid good prices for fruit for
shipment north, aud are doubtless now
ready to take hold Of any and all that II ay
be brought to our market. The fruit grow
er should remember that the prodGct Of
one acre, we'll cultivated in fruit, will pay
his dry goods bill for year, and II the
fruit is only taken care of aud offered to
tie country merchant, he will accept it as
readily in payment Of bill as hs would
cotton, com, wheat, or any other staple
product Of the country. Two years ago
the peach crop was estimated in value to
our State one and a half million of dollars,
This year, if it is handled with that care
which its importance demands, it
will probably exceed two million
and a half, so that a large amount
of the money lost to the State by the
failure of wheat, MAY be recovered by the
nroper attention bestowed on fruit, and
the necessary care in its preparation and
dr;ing. We therefore advise f;u:t growers,
however small may be the extent Of their
Drops, 10 save every pound. 1t will put
money in the haacS of the producer snd
the merchant, iue. at season when it il
most needed.

GLASS WORKS.
Champion Bottle Thrower-His
Triumphs and Troubles.

TriumphS and Troubles.
Mr. Loui Pietro, foreign gentleman.
who has not long resided in this highly
civilized locality, has lately established his
headquarters In a small apartment above a
little boot and shoe shop on College street,
north Of the Square. In this place Mons.
Pietro has quietly and industriously piled
his vocation, which seemed to be that of
restoring dilapidated umbrellas to their
former symmetry of proportions, and con-
dition of usefulness. By way of change,
he would also, now and then, give to
knives and scissors their wonted sharpness
of edge in order to mako such articles cut
''better as never was" But, unfortu-
nately for the expert artizan, these pleasant
occupations were not sufficiently extensive
to keep him constantly employed, and he
devoted his leisure moments to alcoholic
experiments upon physical and financial
economy. These experiments yesterday
morning eliminated in getting him into
almost serious trouble. Under their IN
huence, he suddenly conceived the errone-
GUS idea that he was the champion bottle
thrower of the age, and could with i'm
puDity toss such harmless missiles st the
heads and bodies of numerous citizens
who had occasion to be at the time walk
ing along the street From his shop door
in the second story, which was abundantiy
supplied with empty bottles, Mont.
Piet1o was favored with most excellent
glsss-throwipg facilities, of which he very
freely availed himself The first few ei-
forts were failures, resulting in no damage
to anything but the bottle. This fact in
duced him to take more deliberate aim,
and he made center shot at market bas-
ket on a negro's head, ard also succeeded
in knocking off a gentleman's hat without
in the least putting the gentleman. A
couple of policemen, who were not aware
that this kind of sport was very frequent
in Paris and Berlin, protested against its
further continuance in this particular in
stance. Mons. Pietro demonstrated against
this interference with his personal liber-
ties, and the representatives Of the law
therefore concluded to give him the privi-
lege of throwing bottles out of the work.
house into the river. The bottle thrower
did not much like the favor, but finally
went down because he could not possibly
do otherwise
