Carriage Blocks.

Mr.. Richardson the patentee of Rich
ardson's carboBized stone and pipe called
on us to-day. He says he is meeting with
fine success with his stone and pipe. He
called our attention to some very fine
carriage blocks which he furnished the
+. w. & b. X. X, The Company have
placed them in front of their depot on
Walnut street they certainly have a
very tne appearance. This cold weather
will be good test for them The artit fetal
stoue that we have seen heretofore would
not resist tile ac'iou of the frost during
the c)ld weather we have been having
for the past few days. But from Mr.. KS
certificate and what we see OF these car
riage blocks we think they will prove all
BE claims. Thi. being he case we can I
see any reason whv some of our enter
ptisiug men should not secure the right
for this state and 60 into the manufac.
turing The goods can be made as cheap
here as they can in Chester and save the
transportation. beside adding another Ell
torprlse TO our city which will give en-
ploym.nt to some of our idle lahorer,
who are willing to work AT most an,
price. We understand that Evans PEN

TIE American exports of paper in
1869 were valued at only $3,777, and the
imports at Sj27 ,4G5. For SIS the exports
amounted to Sl,GOS,3lS, the imports
reaching only Sl35,4s7. The manufac-
ture of paper is one Of the few American
industries that have not langu shed dur
ing the recent period of depression. Tie
country is supplied with an abundance
of material suited for the production of
paper. Rags are now used principally
for the finest kinds. Wood, straw and
vegetable fibre in general are used, TO a
large extent, for the coarsAr grades. The
foreign importations consist mainly of
writing paper and paper hangings. which
derive their value from being fashionable
and a. tistic.

A Texas DesperadO's Adventure With
Plucky Boy.
Globe Democrat Letter

An incident is related of the West
Texas desperate, bully and murderer,
whom the people of South Texas last
year very properly hung. Bowen had
long been the terror, and you might say,
really small dictator of the town of
Gonzales, and it is astonishing te know
how one murderous rascal can "cow" a
whole community. People at last hardly
dared to whisper about him, and as to
offending, why that was not to be thought
of any more than making the Emperor
of Austria mad st you. Bowen did what
he pleased, insulted whom he pleased,
went where he pleased. He was sort
of "king," conscious of the fesr his PRES
ence inspired. On one occasion, how
ever, the desperate met his match.
There came to Gonzales fourteeu-year-
old lad-s boy in years and in looks. In
fact, he was a s&llOw-faced, dirtSeating
little fellow much resembling Georgia
urchin, who occasionally breakfasts off
the contents of the old ''clsy roots" OF
his native pine forests. The lad was
from the country, and knew nobody in
Gonzales, and nobody knew him. He
came with his father, and, after selling
out their little wagon-load of cotton and
potatoes, the lad proceeded to peram-
bulate the town and see the sights. He
finally fell into ten pin-sllty, with bar
attached. Bowen, the bully, happened
in, and stood at the counter drinking.
He eyed the boy with look of contempt,
and out of sport began cursing and damn
ing the lad. The boy knew nothing
about the supposed dangerous character
into whose company he had fallen, and
he replied in the same language as the
desperate, who was az usual, well armed
with couple OF six-shooters around his
waist. What is that you sayH said
the murderer, with LOOK Of surprise as
we'll as contempt.
"Your a scoundrel, On you" said
the boy.
The bystsnders who knew Bowen were
amazed. and stood aghast.
Their establishment was increased when
the officiating little fellow pulled out
of a big pocket of his maple.dyed trowsers
an old fashioned pistol ard, pointing it at
the head OF Bowen, fred, the ball missing
him but few inches. This did for the
desperate, who, taking TO his heels, fed,
pursued by the boy for some distance
with the empty pistol, amid the shouts
and LAUGHTER of the crowd. The lad was
the most popular person in Gonzales that
day. Texas murderers and assassins are
in nine casns out of ten towards and Glow
down" scamps.

Mary GLENN washington Letter.
There is always an inevitable token
that you have arrived at Washington.
Your bosom friend may not know OF
your coming, bat the ne'er do well has
found it out. There are more ne'er do
wells to an acre in Washington than you
can fin6 in the same space in any other
city on this continent. Here they mus
ter and concentrate. 1t is not strange.
Here only are the granaries of the gOv~
eminent, at whose OVERLOOKING cribs they
hope for a chance to feed. The people
who have nearly but never succeeded, and
hope for the one more final chance; the
paople who have failed utterly and are
seeking a last covert; the people whose
featherly brains culver with mighty
schmes, which, in their judgement, deeds
nothing but Influence and an appro-
priation to set them sHote for the whole
worlds benefit, and they all come here,
and soon or late they come to you. At
the end of six months you suddenly ask
yeur befogged brain what is the matter.
1t is tired with study, with taking a
mental treasure, with giving out intel
lectual stories to replentish mankind ?
Nothing of the sort. You have not
added one iota to the worlds riches, nor
are YOU likely to, till you can breath in
a clear and higher atmosphere. You are
simply worn out listening to miserable
peoples miserable wants-wsnts that you
can, in the final jam, neither help nor
hinder. The one verse of scripture that
you never forget il "The whole creation
groaneth and travaileth together until
now" You are sure Of that because you
live in Washington.
