LOCAL MATTERS.

THANKSGIVING DAY. - Tomorrow
Thursday is the day set apart by the
President of the United States as day of
thanksgiving. 1t has excited no official ac-
ton on the part of either the Executive OF
Virginia or the Mayor of the city Of Rich
mond. We are glad to observe that the
day will be respected IN many quarters in
the city, and we hope through the State.
The STATE JOURNAL will not be issued
tomorrow. The Postoffice will be closed
the greater part of the day, opening only
from to 10 A. NJ. The carriers will
make their mornings delivery and collec-
tons. On the business or ''star-box"
route collections will be made at $50 A.
NJ. and att P. M. The government offices
in the Custom house will be closed. The
banks of tho city will likewise be closed
throughout the day. We are also
informed that the State officers in the Cap
itol and the city officers in the City Hall
will suspend operations. The Corn and
Flour Exchange will do no business. We
presume many of our general business
houses will observe the day, and that SER
vices appropriate to the occasion will be
held in many of the churches.

The LOUISVILLE "PLANET." -Evi-
dences of the progress of the colored peo-
pie multiply daily. The facility with which
they accommodated themselves to the new
and untried condition of freedom, in which
they were suddenly placed but few years
ago. and the rapidity with which they are
mastering the problems of practical life,
challenge our wonder and admiration, and
furnish hopeful signs of still higher ele-
walton of the race. Among the new enter
prises promising much good to the colored
people, we note the appearance in
Louisville of weekly paper called
the Planet, which is to be devoted exclu-
sively to the mental, moral, and material
interests of the race. The paper is non.
political and non-sectarian. It is edited
with ability by T. F. Cassels and N. X.
Harper, both colored, and the business
management Of the enterprise is entrusted
to A. Froman, also colored. The paper
presents handsome appearance, the print
ing being done at the Free Democrat Office.
We welcome the Planet to our exchange
list. and commend 1t to the support of the
colored people, not only of kentucky, but
Of Virginia, Tennessee, and of other sur.
rounding Stares.

support Of free schools shall be paid by
the taxpayer in coupons, why may It no
direct the payment to be made in wheat
or corn? Coupons are not money. l
humbly submit that the sum to be
raised or received in the treasury of the
State for the support Of free schools must
be paid in money. The large amount an
nually paid by the State on the literary
fund cannot be paid in coupons. The fines
and forfeitures cannot be so paid. In a
word, none OF the sums designated as above
can be raised in anything other than
money. If man owed fine of
$500, could he tender to the collector that
sum in coupons? The answer is plain: he
could not. So far as the act to provide
for the funding and payment of the public
debt, approved March 80, 1871, purports
to authorize the payment of any part of the
sums to be raised for the support of free
schools in coupons, is in direct violation of
the constitutional proyisio ns above cited.

STEAM ON STREET RAILRoAps.-The
epiZoot has not been without its good re-
suits. 1t has directed practical attention
to the adaptability of steam to street cars.
We do not despair of yet seeing the steep
grades of our streets overcome, not by a
ruinous system of digging, but by the APP
plication of a different motive power to that
now in use.
The city council of Louisville, impelled
to action by the disastrous disease among
horses, have passed an ordinance vesting
the various railroad companies of that city
with authority to propel their cars by
steam. The engine to be used is known as
the Baxter engine, which has been in
use on the street cars in Illion,
New York, for some time, and
found to answer the purpose ad.
mirably. 1t mounts grades of four hun
bred feet to the mile with a car containing
thirty passengers, with the greatest ease.
The car can be stopped with almost incred-
fble suddennegs, and there is positively no
Inconvenience to passengers from dust or
smoke, there being nothing to raise the
former but the car-whools, and then the
dust passes to the rear, and the engine is SO
constructed as to consume the smoke.
Ii there is any spirit of enterprise in our
present Street Railway Company, we COM
mend this question to their attention. We
commend it to the attention of the Council
and our citizens generally.

SCARCITY OF DwELLINGs.-The

the following:
'This state of things ought to stimulate
our people, who have the means, to EN-.
bark freely in building next spring. Out
side capitalists, also, should avail them.
selves of the opportunity thus presented
for securing large returns from similar in
vestments. 1t is impossible for Richmond
to grow unless accommodations are fur.

The CONCERT FRIDAY NIaHT.--We
present below, in condensed form,
the brilliant programme of the grand sacred
concert at the Monumental church, from
which it will be seen that it is to be an al
together and unusually delightful musical
treat. The concert will be given by the
Monumental church choir, with the volun-
tary assistance Of the finest amateur talent
of Washington city, and large chorus Of
the best voices in Richmond. The follow
ing is the programme for the occasion
Organ solo, Wagner; duo. tenor and
barytone (Halevy); soprano solo, Verdi !;
barytone solo, (Schumann); chorus, (so-
prano and barytone sol) (Warren); organ
solo, (Wheatl tenor solo, (Bellini) J; trio,
(soprano, tenor and barytone) (Rossini) !;
duo, (tenor and baryt ene) (Flotow); chorus,
soprano, tenor and barytone) (Rossini).
The kind and voluntary assistance of his
amateur friends in Washington city, as well
as the full chorus OF our own local anna
teurs, enables the director, on this occa-
sion, to produce number of the finest
compositions, both of the old and modern
masters, in style which cannot fail prove
an unusually pleasant, as well as highly in
teresting entertainment to all lovers ofgood
music. Tickets and programmes can be
had at West, Johnston & Co.'s, and at the
church door. Those taking part in the
choruses are requested to assemble pune
tually at 8 O'Clock this evening and Thurs

10 the Editor Of the State Journal:
1t is believed that the farmers of this
State would find it to their advantage to
work good heavy oxen much more gene
rally than they now do, for several rea-
sons.
They are docile and tractable for man-
agement by boys and others less capable
of handling horses. They will do more
work and cost less for feed, in proportion
to their market price, than horses and it
costs less to harness and equip them for
work than horses.
Then, if they ore accidentally killed.
their hides and tallow are worth more than
horses also, if they become partially dis
abled or superannuated, they can be readi-
ly converted into beef, and will not be q
dead loss like an old or crippled horse.
Particularly on new farms, before there is
large quantity Of produce raised to be
hauled to market, requiring much travel on
the roads, are they desirable.
For these and many other considerations
it is desirable that our farmers should use
more good, heavy oxen in their general
farm work. Light, scrawny oxen, with
out strength enough to pillow deep furrow,
are not so desirable. 1t is considered by
most persons, who have had large expert
ence, that Devon cattle make the best oxen,
though Durhams and Herefords are pre-
ferred by many. Devons are priced for
their doclljty and spri htly action, being
QUICK walkers but many have found that
either of the above breeds crossed with our
native breeds, producing half-blood grades,
make very valuable oxen. But, Of what
ever sort they should be good size, active,
and kept well fed and in good flesh and
then they will constitute most profitable
teams on most farms; and if generally
used, will be found highly beneficial. They
are less liable to get out of health, and
more easily treated when they do get sick
than horses.
This matter is worthy the consideration
of farmers generally. D. S. @.
