r,&y1T4TJ,

ENGINE CO1IPANP-
This splendid and intelligent
colored Fire Company have succeed
ed in getting their building upon the
Jail lot, whore they will hereafter
have an excellent location for their
Engine. They return speacial thanks
to citizens for furnishing provisions
during the progress Of the removal of
their building. Mr.. Riggs furnished
rollers and bars; Mr.. Strauss lumber;
Mr.. 4. NJ. Smith two days labor; and
with the assistance of members Of the
Commet got the building there with
out any expense.
In word, the citizens all acted
nobly in helping tho Independents,
and we trust that they will show
their appreciation Of this kindness by
their good conduct. Mayor Boliver
contributed largely to the success Of
the Independents.
While MI the members of the
Company did their whole duty we
can not help to especially notice the
untiring emery and will of their
President Mr.. Charles Thorn, who
never left the wheel until the build
ing was 10 the spot. May this organiza-
tion be SO fortunate rs to ever have a
resident like Thorn.

Russian Villages.

The houses of the villages are in
general dilapidated and without windows,
and only little trap-door to peep
through, which is shut in cold weather.
The peasants live as they lived for centu-
ries before the time of Peter the Great
The dwellings,, fronted by birch trees,
stand along the post road. At the en-
trance of the village is signboard, on
which the number of men and COWS III it
is painted. The women and children are
not thought worth the trouble of enume-
ration. The men wear loose red or blue
shirts, gathered at the waist. A few have
boots, but the rest only leggings bound
with thongs, the shoes being of kind
of basket-work, made from strips of
birch. The women have a coarse che
mise. with full sleeves, over which is the
national dress, the sarafane of blue or
red cotton, without bodice, and kept on
the shoulder by a band. Those who are
married have handkerchief tied round
the head. The girls wear their hair in
one long plat down the back. The chill
dren, in summer, have only II short shirt
with open sleeves. In front of every
house is bench upon which the tenants
and their visitors sit in the summer to
chat or perhaps to sing The provincial
towns are much alike throughout the
empire.

Greasing Axles.

On the authority of the Carriage
Monthly, more injury is done to car
riages and wagons by greasing too much
than the reverse. Tallow is the best
lubricant for wood axles, and castor oil
for iron. Lard and common grease are
apt to penetrate the hub, and work their
way out around the lemons of the spokes
and spoil the Wheel For common wood
axles, just enough grease should be ap-
piled to the spindle to give it light
coating. To oil an iron axle, first wipe
clean with cloth wet with turpentine,
and then apply a few drops of castor oil
near the shoulder and end. One tea
spoonful is enough for the four wheels.
Carriages are sometimes oiled 80 much
that their appearance is spoiled by hav-
ing the grease spattered upon their var
nished surfaces. When they are washed
in that condition, the grease is sure to
be transferred to the channels from the
wheel, and from thence on to the panels.

Galveston.

The great fire which recently de-
stroyed a portion of the business part of
Galveston, Texas, turns attention to a
city where enterprise has placed large
commercial interests, notwithstanding it
seems to have most dangerous loca-
ton. Galveston is on the eastern ex-
tremity of Galveston island-a low strip
of land only mile wide at the city. 1t
is separated from the mainland by a
navigable channel two miles wide. In
ordinary weather this channel is safe for
shipping but when large tidal waves
roll in, as they often do, almost certain
destruction overtakes vessels that have
not escaped into the bay. Great dam
age has been done during equinoctial
storms, as was the case in 1867 and
1875. The city is partially built upon
piles, as the island Mt that point is only
seven feet above the sea-level. There
are no wells, the city depending for it's
water supply upon cisterns erected on
scaffolds. Yet Galveston is an impor-
tant commercial city, exporting large
quantities of cotton, wool, hides, etc.
The coast trade is extensive and the
island. notwithstanding its exposed
situation, produces excellent tropical
fl11its
