Hire. Burlington In Augusta. If it be that Mrs. Partington gave ex pression to the following sentiment, it is probablo that she must have beeu in our city lately, or has been pierusing some recent numbers of tbe Slangwhanger. “ If there is anybody under the canister of heaven that I have in utter excreconce,’ says tbe old lady, “ it is the slander, going about like a boy constructor, circulating his calomel upon honest folks.” “Dr. N«wtan»Hralrr.” A large number of ladies and gentlemen listened, yesterday noon, to tho explanation of the great gift of Healing possessed by Dr. J. R. Newton. We do not know what to say about this remarkable man. Many persons present, who went upon the stage with divers dis eases and complaints, left it cured or healed, if we may credit their own asser tions. Dr. Newton will bo found at Masonic Hall throughout the day, for a few days, where he invites the lame, the halt, and afflicted persons to come and ho healed, free ot charge. Christmas Krcrgrcctis. As Christmas evergreens are hanging in several churches and many residences, the following instructions, taken from a similar lot of ancient superstitions, should be heeded by those who are not particularly anxious to die this year: “If every* remnant of Christmas decoration is not cleared out of church before Candlemas Day—the Purifi cation, February 2—there will be death that year in the family occupying the pew where a leaf or berry is left.” The above also applies to private houses. *<*.* - - - Item lor TO others. A Scotch protessor, we are very glad to state, condemns in strong terms the prac tice children to go about with out sufficient covering for their legs. He truthfully says that mothers commit child murder, and then wonder how God could be so unkind as to take away their darling. They not only murder their children, but; in his opinion, commit suicide themselves by exposing their necks to the cold air. It is a puzzle to him, that women should cut off the tops of their dresses, and appear with bare bosoms iu refined society, while that part of the dress winch should protect the heart, lungs, and other vital organs, is, trailing in tbe mud. Where Will il End » It is bad enough to introduce partisan ship into trade, into our churches, into literary associations, and into jury rooms— without exhibiting the spirit in the manage ment of the street cars. Persons of all political affinities, and of every shade of color, are supposed to be patrons of this new enterprise—the street cars—and we, therefore, mention that on yesterday the Superintendent gave notice (to the readers of the Chronicle and Constitutionalist) that, “on account of the present condition of the track, the cars will commence running at seven instead of six in the mornings, from this date,” which fact ive announce gratuit ously for the benefit of our city readers. Good Coffee. It is doubted whether one family in a dozen knows what really “ good coffee” is. Never buy your coffee ground, but grind it yourself, immediately before using it; keep your coffee pot, whatever kind you may use, wiped clean and dry inside; a damp tea or coffee pot acquires a musty flavor that spoils the best tea or coffee. The cheapest and perhaps the best coffee pots are those made on tho French plan, called cafetieres. If you have not one of these, adopt the following plan : Put your freshly ground coffee into the coffee pot, previously made warm, and pour upon it water actually boiling ; get the pot by the side of the fire for a few seconds, but do not let it boil up ; then pour a cupful out and return it back again to the pot in order to clear it; having done this lot it stand on the hob or centre to settle, and in less than five minutes a transparent, strong, aromatic cup of coffee may be poured out. The proportions of coffee (which should not be too finely ground) recommended, are an ounce to a pint or pint and a half of water. The milk used with coffee should always be boiled and used as hot as possible ; the boiling of milk imparts a peculiar and exceedingly pleasant flavor to the coffee. White sugar is recommended, as tho rao lassee-like flavor of moist sugar quite over powers the delicate aroma. Contest Between lire Engines. At the Louisiana State Fair recently held in New Orleans, a novel trial of en gines was had. A hand engine was to run half a mile with a horse, with 50 feet of hose and ten men, to run to best advan tage, take suction and throw water through 50 feet of hose in the shortest time. Eight companies entered, the first of which made the half mile in 2:27 and water was thrown in 131 Beconds, making tho time from the start, 2:401. Another mado the time in 2:141, and had water in 2:371. The winner made the half mile in 221 and bad a stream on in 2:34. A heavy rain coming np made tho track difficult and dangerons, and the last company was reluctantly compelled to withdraw. A trial of this kind, remarks the Savan nah Advertiser, is far better adapted to show tho real effectiveness of the engines than the usual stylo of giving the approval to the one that throws tho farthest or highest, for at conflagrations it is prompt ness in reaching tho fire and rapidity in getting to work which makes the services of the eDgine valuable. Increase of BmlffHtUM. Official returns just made thow that the emigration into tins country was larger in 1867 than in any other year aince 1854, and except that year and the three pre ceding it, the largeac in all our sbistory. Many crossed the border from Canada, but of those no record is given. Os those who came to us by sea, the number wns in 1867, 242,371. Iu 1854, the number was as high us 319,223; in 1853, 284.945; iu 1852, 300,992. The number ran down to 78,589 in 1858, and to 65,529 in 1861. It was 233,398 in 1866, and seems to bo again steadily increasing. The larger proportion came from Great Britain and Germany. Thus in 1867, 117,591 were from Germauy; 65,137 from Ireland, and about 40,000 from England, Scotland and Wales ; leaving less than 20,000 for all other countries. ♦ 1 How to Make Coal East. Some housekeepers act upon the suppo sition that an addition of tho fuel will cause increase combustion, and consequently de velop additional warmth. This is an expensive mistake. It is only smothering and retarding tbe fire to put in a thick layer of coal, or as some do, fill the fire-box from a layer of two inches of ignited coal to its utmost capacity with fresh fuel. No more coal should bo put on a fire at one time than will readily ignite and give off a pure white flame—not a blue flame, as that denotes the presence of unconsumed gases. In clearing the grates of coal stoves in the morning, there is always to be found a quantity of unburnt coal which has been externally subjected to combustibles. It is covered with aßhes, and looks like cinders. It is often dumped into the ash-box. The fact is that the lump is only roasted on the outside, not even cooked, and is in a better condition for igniting than the green coal- Never waste it. Attention to these few hints will save many dollars in a winter. The experiment is at least worth tryiug. Tlie Bankrupt Lair, The applications for the benefit of the Bankrupt Act have materially increased of late, a fact mainly due to a clause which provides that insolvents must commence proceedings within the fiiet year of the law, in order to obtain its benefits, unless their estates will pay at least fifty per cent on their indebtedness. The first year expires on the second day of March en suing, after which tbe law will be in operation, unless the fifty per cent, clause shall be repealed—which it is to be hoped Congress will attend to without delay. The policy of a periodical liquidation of all debt upon condition of surrendering in good faith all the property of the debtor, is not doubted in any commercial commu nity. Nor.does the enactment of a law discharging the bankrupt from any ante cedent liabilities imply repudiation, since every contract is made under a notice that the Government may, at any time, by a general bankrupt act, annul the obligation of the debtor. The effect of such an exercise of power is very valuable to society. It ascertaius the responsibility of meu, and teaches the commercial public how far they are to be credited upon the ostensible possession of property. Upon the class of individuals liberated the effect is even more important. Re lieved from a weight of debt which absorbs all their industry—fearing that any acqui sition held as tho basis of more efficient effort may be seized by some impatient creditor, tho best energies of a debtor are lost to himself and to society, and men who are capable of conducting enterprises ot great value are condemned to a Hubor .’i' nate position. Tho liberation of so much enterprise, the stimulus of so much hope, mast add greatly to the resouiees and pro gress of the nation. Tl»c Cotton Tax. The repeal of the cotton tax has been made the subject of so much Congressional wrangling and contradictory efforts at leg islation, that, notwithstanding the vast im portance of the subject to our people, very many persons are in doubt as to the real condition of tho measure at the present time. The facts are briefly these: The bill, as originally passed by the House, simply provided for a repeal of the tax on all cotton grown after last year; the Senate substituted a provision for suspending the tax one year, and also for the importation of cotton this year free of duty. The House refused to agree to this substitute, and the hill accordingly went into a committee of conference, which reported that an agree ment could not he reached. The reason was that the Senate members of the com mittee insisted on the provision levying a tax of one cent per pound on all cotton grown after the present year. Subsequently, Mr. Sherman carried certain instructions through the Senate, and the bill was then sent,to another conference committee,which agreed upon a report providing for the simultaneous repeal of the tax on our own cotton, grown hereafter, and of the tariff on foreign cotton, which, under the existing law, pays a duty of three cents per pound. In this shape tho bill, it was hoped, would have proved acceptable; but upon its pre sentation in the House on Friday, it was summarily rejected, and a third conference committee appointed, in whose hands the measure now rests.

Charleston, January 30.—The Con vention to-day ejected the police sent by order of the post commander to preserve order, and appointed a committee to await on Gen.

Several propositions were introduced petitioning Congress to loan from one to three million dollars to the State for the relief of the people, and to enable planters to recuperate aud pay cash wages. A proposition was also presented to cut lands offered for Sale into small tracts, permitting the poor to purchase on credit from the State. Congressional. Washing; on, January 30. — House: The Secretary oi Treasury called for informa tion relative to the income tax. Schofield, on rising to a question of privilege, offered a resolution that yester day evening’s express contained a state ment that one ot the Supreme Judges had declared in public that a majority of the Supreme Bench declared reconstruction acts unconstitutional, and the Court would so declare, aud directing the Judiciary Committee to inquiro whether the article ho true, and whether the facts constitute such misdemeanor as Justifies the House in presenting articles of impeachment.
