COAL TAR AND WooD.-We take from the
Rural Carolinlan aparagraph from letter writ
ten.by Mr.. 7. S. Dabney, OF Burblgh, Miss, show
ing the preservative properties OF coal tar. Mr..
Dabney says:
Fifteen years ago had two very rough gates
made Of timber wet from the mill, without an at.
tempt at planning, the heart and sap being worked
up lndnerently. They were put together oy
workman; but, instead OF mortlce, the Stats were
let into the two vertical pieces and secured there
by mailing stats over ttem. These gates were
hung to trees sixteen to twenty inches diameter.
and then were thoroughly drenched-saturated
with coal tar as an experiment. / have never
made second application Of the tar, and yet, to.
day, cannot distinguish the sap from the heart.
1t Is all equally solid, without the slightest evil
.dence Of decay, or OF wear from the weather.
Why may not these rough, sappy gates ltnger to
rejoice, not ON their thlrtieth, but on their hum
dredth anniversary They have not changed per.
ceptably in fifteen years. They come up to their
posts as softly and as lraly as on their first day.
and they maintain precisely their original dis
tances from the ground, and do they not 60 far
to establish the preservauve properties OF coal
tarp They establish 1t, think.
All the experiments made BY the English eu-
gineers with coal tar agree In their results with
the experience Of Mr.. Dabney.

The ADELAIDE Phillips CoNCERT.-This
concert, which took place last night In the fine
hall OF the Freundscllaftsbund, was handsomely
attended; and we ore satisfied, from the express
sons OF satisfaction heard all sIdes that II the
company had remained another day their second
concert wond have been crowded to something
unpleasautly like surocaton.
Miss Phillips has deep contraito voice, fully
under command. There Is, moreover: o bon
honamte Qf the word may be applied to LADY, In
her singing, which places her In sympathy with
her audience, and enables her to sway them as
she pleases This was especially noticeable In the
Laughing Song, which was delivered with an un-
affected ease and jolty which brought an entnu-
siastic eucore. Miss Phillips then sang touch.
ing ballad (The Years Glide By,) which was the
gem OF the evening. This style OF song, itseems
TO US, displays the volume and richness OF Miss
Philpps's voice far better than the nerld music OF
Rosslni. Maria Dolores" a Cuban sung, was
given with fascinating archnes' aud was loudly
applauded.
Mr.. Jules Hasler sang "Sei Veniicata Assai,n
from Dinorah, and Largo al Factotum," from
II BarbIere, with splendid effect. The style OF the
Two arIas Is essentially different, but Mr.. Hasler
was as much at home In the passionate strains OF
the former as In the rattling phrases OF the i'm
mortalFlgaro Weregret that we have not had
she,opportunity Of hearing Mr.: ;Hasler upon the
lyric stage.

clear and velvety, kept himself In the background,
and declined an encore, which he richly deserved

A DRUMMER CAPTURED AND FENED.-SeVeral
days ago l.. Maybaum arrived In this city from
the North, with large lot OF goods, which by
agreement he consigned to well-known auc
tloneer and commission merchant OF this city.
The merchant tcld the consIgnor that If he had to
sell The goods by himself he would charge ten per
cent. on the sales; but If the conslgnor chose to
60 around the city, soliciting orders and selling
the goods, he could do SO under the merchants
license who would In this case charge but i've per
cent The drummer went to work and was cap.
tured on Tuesday afternoon with o carpetbag,
on King street, where lie had visited many stores
and done thriving bu.lness. Upon depositing q
check for slC0 he was released for the night, and
next morning appeared before the Mayer and de-.
Tended himself under the above agreement. The
Mayor decided that II the conslguor had staid
North, the goods could have been sold here under
the commission merchants license; but that The
consignor could nos accompany the goods and
drum them OF underthe merchants license, as
this would open the door to a vast amount OF
fraud, and enable drumners to protect them
selves under any other mans license. The pris-
oner was sentenced to pay o dne Of $25.

A MIDNIGHT INCLUSION AND A Hot RECEP-
TIeN.-0n Tuesday night, a short time before IL
O'Clock, the residents in King, just above George
street, were startled by rapid succession Of pis-
tol shots, brought forth by the daring attempt on
the part OF somevilIain to rob the house Of Mr..
David No. 3SI King street. The first floor Of tie
house, occupied by the dry goods establishment
OF Messrs. RI. David u Co., had been shut up
for over an hour, and the family were in the
upper part Of the house. Near IL. O'Clock they all
retired, leaving the lights burning for the time
young mau of the family had occasion to 60 down
to the store for something, and he was returning
up a narrow stairway, when amln leaped from O
dark corner, where he lay concealed, and made
or carrying several bundles. The young man,
suspectIng ihe truth, drew his pistol and fired at
the fugitive, whereupon the latter dropped two
silver fruit baskets and an oyercoat, which he
had got from the dlning-rohm, and continued his
hight to the back part OF the yard, closely pur-
sued by the young man. Upon reaching the end
or the piazza the robber jumped upon small shed,
when second shot was fred at him, and, as he
leaped from this iuto the next yard, he received
farewell salute. 1t is thought that the last took
effect, Us the fugitive was heard Immediately to
cry out az II In pain. The neighborhood was
speedily alarmed by the firing, but the roooer ef'
fected his escape by crossing several lots, and dis
appearing 10 the darkness. The premises OF Mr..
David were entered In the short time that the
young man went down stairs, and 1t Is evident
that the robber was watching for and chose this
opportunity Of efrecting his purpose. He had
barely entered the dining-room, which opened on
the piazza and snatched up the fruit basket and
overcoat, when the footsteps ascending the stairs
! made him beat a retreat, and hide himself In
dark corner next small partition. The attempt
| Is one OF the most daring Of the numerous ones
lately chronicled. There were numerous articles

SAFETY OF THE BARK TEMPLAR.-The Baltl-
more Gazette OF Tuesday, the 3lst ult., says, In
relation to this vessel which was supposed to have
been sunk by colidlng with the steamer KensiDg-
ton, that the Templar was towed into Fortress
Monroe, on Monday, the Sott, By the steamer Va.
ZOO, from New Orleans for Philadelphia. The
Templar had lost ilbboom and fore rigging, and
hal her stern stove In. The Sun OF the same date
says:
Later In the day the owners Of the Templar In
this city were relieved By receiving dispatch
announcing that the steamship Yazoo from New
orleans for Philadelphia, had arrived In Hampton
Roads. having the bark in tow;., The captain OF
the Templar reports that on Friday night about
afty miles from Cape Henry, he was run into by
propeller steamship, carrying away his jib6oUm
and lorerlggng. and stoving the stern. From
the tenor OF the dispatch from Fortress Monroe,
1t seams evident that the captain OF the Templar
was not aware Of the name OF the vesseI that ran
into him. The Templar had on board q cargo
consisting OF $3.50 barrels -four 400 kegs lard, 23
packages furniture, 10000 gallons refined oil,
cases manufactured tobacco, and % packages
