THE ACTUAL CosT OF STOVES
Persons familiar with the cost of iron
castings in general business have often
doubtless wondered what there was in
stoves over similar fabrics of iron to
make them so expensive to users of them.
Compared to beds, tables, chairs, carpets,
and other articles of prime necessity in
household use they are exorbitantly
high. They last no longer than domestic
wares generally; and it would seem
ought to approximate in price to other
utensils. The life of good stove is
from five to ten years, according as it is
used, which is no longer than bedsteads,
chairs, tables, and other furniture of
similar quality endure. The Iron
Moulders' Journal gives some facts as to
the cost of making stoves, which are OF
general interest Mr.. John s. Perry, OF
Albany, calculates that a gross ton Of
iron will make 2,120 pounds of clean
castings: which would furnish seven
stoves of 800 pounds each. He further
calculates that the cost of moulding per
100 pounds, is 81 374, which would
make the work on a stove cost $4 12i
for moulding. No. foundry iron was
quoted in New York, September 10, at
$50 per ton, which at Mr.. Perry's figures
would make the iron in 800 pound
stove cost 81 %; the net cost for the
stove in question being Ss 40. Such
stoves are sold by dealers without any
furniture or fixtures at S28 and $3S ac-
cording to finish.

The recent failure of several CO.
operative societies and Grange es-
tablishments in different parts OF
the country is seized upon and her
aided by certain papers in the east
as conclusive evidence of the i'm
practicability of allsuch enterprises.
The old saying "what is every
body's business is nobody's business
is quoted by them as applicable tc
the cases of those societies which
have met with failure; but the real
cause of the failures is studiously
ignored, and ficticious ones are in.
geniously assigned. Doubtless
the patrons of those societies and
establishments entrusted their af
fairs in the hands of dishonest OF
incompetent agents, as many private
individuals and firms have frequent
ly done, and are continually doing,
1t is everybody's business that the
affairs of this Government shall be
properly managed; but as every
body can not directly take a hand in
framing and executing its laws, and
therefore must delegate and EN-.
power certain limited number tc
do so, it by no means follows that
because these agents fail to perform
their duty, that the theory of the
Government may be set down as q
failure. Just why the affairs of CO.
operative societies and Grange stores
may not be managed as successfully
as those of railroad, mining and
other corporations, is not made
plain, by the organs of the monop.
olists and grinders of the east.

A Relic of Daniel Boone.


4 correspondent of the Nashville In
ion and American writes from Wash
ington county, Tenn: Near Mr.. Faw's
farm, on the lands 5. E. Edwards, is the
famous Boone tree which contains the
earliest record of civilization in Ten
nessee. II stands on the northwestern
slope Of h:il which rises up from Sink
ing creek, near the Blountsville and
Jonesboro stage road. The hill is thick
ly set with beech, maple and oak, and
the whole earth is ramifed with gnarled
roots, which cover the surface like an
inextricable mat The dense woods, the
roar of the little creek as it leaps in cas-
cades over the tinted limestone, and the
deep gloom of the forest gave wildness
to the surrounding not unlike what one
may imagine it was ia years ago when
Daniel Boone, the bold pioneer, resting
his rife against the tree, carved in indie,
lible characters the reSplt of the days
work in this way

FAILURE OF COOPERATIVE SoCIE-
TIEs.-Co-operatIve societies are expos
ed to one great evil. Everybody's busi-
ness is nobody's business. Confusion
would result from all the proprietors
taking an active share in the manage
ment. A manager or board of direc-
tors, or something of that sort, has to
take executive control. The direction
has to be paid and nobody looks after
it. The consequence is, says the New
York Republic, that in large percen-
tage of cases, as soon as the profits be-
gin to accumulate, they vanish, "at one
fell swoop," to parts unknown, accom-
panied by the honest man in charge
Some Western Grangers have just been
afflicted this way. Where honesty pre-
walls, it seems fore-ordained that COM
mon sense should not. The California
Grangers, who were to do such wonders
crush the railroads, annihilate middle
men, and wax fat on the margins those
greedy people were supposed to have
absorbed, managed the other day to fine
themselves at the little end of the horn
and to drag down with them one of oul
| largest mercantile houses.

society, and the ''Little Sisters ofthe
Poor" a Catholic organization
each body getting s25,00O- As
neither OF them had any claims up
on Congress, and as it is so contra
ry to the spirit of the Government
to extend financial aid to religious
sects, it is remarkable that the
measure should have received the
sanction of the peoples servants
It was claimed by the friends of the
associations that the money asked
for was to be used tor the erection
of buildings in that city. Speak
ing of the matter, an eastern daily
says:
''It now transpires that the Ro-
man Catholics are using their S25,-
900 for the erection of chapel on
their grounds, while the other soci-
ETY., finding the sum too small for
its purposes, is waiting to make lar
ger demands on Congress, before
putting up its building. The pre-
cedent set by these appropriations
furnishes every religious society and
charitable organization in the Dis
trict of Columbia with an argu.
ment for Congressional aid. 1t is
the first instance of the devotion Of
the peoples money by Congress tc
distinct sectarian purposes and
should be cut short at once"

At that time he was % years of age
and doubtless was more than 100 miles
from any human habitatiOn, relying
alone upon his own brave heart, strong
arm and trusty rife. The tree is just two
feet in diameter and leans about three
degrees from perpendicularity. 1t has
been greatly defaced by seekers after
Immortality, who have inscribed their
names, otherwise unknown, all over it,
for ten feet, or nearly 50, above the sur
face of the ground. For several hundred
yards southwest, and Immediately around
the tree, is large number of mounds,
with corresponding depressions, which
have led many to believe that it was ori-
ginally mining region of the Indians,
and some have been led to think that
beds of pure silver, as rich as those OF
Potosi, might be found by digging. But
l am satisfied that the mounds have
been produced by uprooted trees, whose
roots decaying have left the cherry beds
high above the general surface.

JOHN BRIGHT AND VACCINATIoN.-
Mr.. John Bright's opinions, says the
Tribune, are of that immensely liberal
sart that he cannot endure even compul-
sorry vaccination. He publicly declares
that he has always felt that the law
which inficis any penalty On parent
who is unwilling to have his child
vaccinated is monstrous and ought to be
repealed. Anti-vaccination has never
won so notable a champion since the
days when the first unreasoning prejud-
ice against the treatment was overcome.
At present it is compulsory in England,
and rightly SO, we think. The citizen
certainly has right to be protected
from those who, resisting vaccinatian,
may become centers of smallpox infec-
ton. But the more imperative a vaccin-
alton law is made, the more strict should
be the care taken to procure vaccine
matter

SHINING EXAMPLES OF PoLITENEss.
The Washington correspondent of the
New Yoak Times, speaking of General
Sherman says he is sight which it does
one good to see, always in good humor,
always ready to speak to you, always
kind hearted, cordial, and everlastingly
jolly. l have seen him give up his seat
in the horse cars to poor negro woman
with as much courtesy as if she had
been a princess" Precisely like true
gentleman, reminding one of General
Washington's return of a negro's pro-
found salute by graceful bow with lift
ed hat responding to a staff officer who
chided him for such condescension with
the observation that he "could not per-
nit a negao to. surpass him in polite
ness" Excellent examples for smaller
men to follow.
