Bishop HAVEN OF the Methodist
Church South, has been creating quite
a sensation by taking dinner with a
colored dentist 10 Atlanta, Ga, and
going out TO ride with him after dinner.
The Atlanta papers, instead OF abusing
the Bishop, congratulate the co!ored
tooth puller upon having live white
Bishop to dine with him, aud taunt the
Bishops Of the Methodist Church North
with the fact that Bishop Haven is far
ahead of them in social equality, and has
shown his faith by his works, while
they preach civil rights but do not prac-
tice them.
The above, from the Chicago Tribune,
contains very amusing blunder which
is the more surprising because of the
TriJuns's usual accuracy. Bishop
HAVEN belongs to the Meth odist Church
North, and is the most intense and Of
fensive advocate Of negro equality on
the whole board OF Bishops. He takes
a prominent part in political affaira,
aud in the last Presidential campaign,
both by pen and tongue, publicly urged
the re election OF President GRANT. 1t
is not surprising that he dined with
colored dentist at Atlanta; possibly he
could not dine anywhere else.

bloom were very materially blasted BY
the late cold weather and frosts. We
would like if these localists who give
such good and interesting accounts OF
the fruit crop, would examine the ap-
pie trees, as that is the staple fruit OF
this section. There will not be a full

not an entire failure OF any,"

ing REGISTER. II We remember right
it is not many weeks eince we copied an
editorial from the REGISTER, advocating
the determination OF dogs in order
that sheep raising might be en-
couraged in our State. 1t is
folly TO handy words on a matter
OF such vital importance to West
Virginia as this. Let the Wheeling
RRelsEER suggest any plan. we care not
whether it be aristocratic or Demo-
cratic, By which wool growing may be
encouraged, and we will favor ii. I'm
til we can have fewer dogs and more
sheep, we are certain to be lett behind

State Journal.
Certainly, Brother STEVENSON we are
in favor of more sheep and fewer dogs,
aud we think the Monroe county au-
thorities did very sensible thing when
they levied per capita tax on dogs, the
proceeds OF which will be applied to re-
muuerate the owners of sheep for the
losses Inflicted by the CANNES. But our
namesake Of that county has denounc-
ed this action of the County Court,
and has labored to make OF it
political capital for the Repub-
licsn party. The "aristocratic" Demo-
Gratis who compose q majority Of the
court in Monroe county are bitterly de-
nounced by Mr.. BURKE and the Re-
publican dog-owners are exhorted to
drive from power the men who have
dared to impose this hateful tax. We
trust that he will hereafter include
among the objects OF his vituperstion
his Republican allies Of the State Jour-
nal and the Fairmont West Virginian.
That is all.

1T will probably be found that those
qualities which come under the head of
foibles, rather than of vices, render PEG.
pie most insolerable as companions and
coadjutors. For example, it may be OBJ
served that those persons have a more
worn, jaded and dispirited look than any
others who have to live with people who
make difficulties on every occasion, great
or small. 1t is astonishing to see how
this practice of making difficulties grows
into confirmed habit of mind, and
what DISAGREEMENT it occasions. The
SAVIOR of life is taken out of it when YOU
know that nothing you propose to do OF
suggest, hope for or endeavor, will meet
with any response but an enumeration
OF the difficulties that lie in the path YOU
wish to travel. The difficulty monger is
to be met with not only in domestic and
social life but also in business. 1t no,
unfrequently occurs in business rela.
tons that the chief will never by any
chance, without many objections and
much bringing forward of possible diff
culties, approve of anything that is
brought to him by his subordinates.
They at last cease to take pains, knowing
that no amount of pains will prevent
their work being dealt with in a spirit OF
ingenious effectiveness. At last they
say to themselves: 1.-THE better the
thing we present the more opportunity
he will have for developing his unpleas-
ant task of effectiveness and his imagi-
native power of inventing difficulties

The subject of furs brings to my mind
the Empress of Russia's visit to Paris
on her way to the south from England,
which she visited on the occasion of her
daughters (the Duchess of Edinburgh
confinement. The cloak the majesty of
the north wore on her arrival is said to
be of the value of 100000 francs, con.
sisting of the richest Siberian zhibelline.
No less than 22S skins were employed in
the cloak, each skin being estimated at
300 francs. But this is far from coming
up to the value of the fur trimming of
coat Of the Emperor of Russia,
which, consisting of blue fox, most
rare and valuable fur, is worth upward
OF 12O, 900 francs. Nine Adelina Patti,
the Marquise De Caux, received as pres
ent from the Emperor Alexander, during
the late visit to St. Petersburg, set of
furs of the value of $4,000
francs. This may be said to sing to
some purpose. The equipage Of the
Marqvise when she arrived in Paris Gre
ated no little sensation-black horses,
bells, furs and even coachmen were all
got up in true Russian style! Nothing
