is certainly tho older, and therefore tho

I bare noticed that tho JJiblo, with that
plain, blunt honesty which is such a con*
ipiciioua characteristic of tho Scriptures,
it always particular to never refer to even
the illustrious mother of all mankind
krrsclf ns a "lady,” but speaks of her ns
a woman. [Laughter.] It is odd, bnt
you will find it so. I am peculiarly
proud of this honor, because I think that
ilis toast to women is one which, by
right and by every rulo of gallantry,
! should take proee<lonco of all others—of
the army, of tho navy, of oven royalty it

tbs reason thnt, tacitly, yon do drink a
broad, general health to all good women
when you drink tho health of tho Quoon
of Kufland, and tho Princess of Wales.
Loud cheers.] I have in mind a poem
just now, which is familiar to you all—
familiar to overybody. And what an in
spiration thnt was (and how instantly tho
jnsent toast recalls tho verses to our

[laughter ]—however, you remember tho

how daintily, how almost imperceptibly
the verses rise up before you, feature by

woman; and how, as you contemplate
the finished marvel, your homage grows
into worship of the intellect that could
mate ao fair a thing out of more breath,

Eofaula Ccrmpondence,
EUtori Pshyrqph Urol Mcstmggr: About
IS o’clock last night, 2Sth, the family
residence of Col. R. A. McTyer, on Bar
bour (tract, in this city, waa totally de
stroyed by fire, together with a consider
able portion of the furniture in the sec
ond story. The fire evidently caught in
the roof from aome defect of the chim
ney. and before it was discovered the en
tire roof was in flames. But for the
scarcity of water, the fire engines would
have saved the building. The firemen,
however, did nobis work in preventing a
spread of the flames to the now and
handsome residence of Mr. Tom Evoiritt,
about eighty feet distant on the adjoin
ing lot. Col. McTyei’s residence was the
largest frame building in'the city, and it
made a very large and hot fire. It was
insured In the "Sow York "Home” Insur
ance Company for $ 1,000—scarcely a half
of the original cost of the building.
Notwithstanding the tightness of the
times, we had a moderately lively Clirist-
hare, but the weather was cxceed-
ingly inclement for outdoor frolics. But
one accident worth noting occurred dur
ing the festivities, and that was the acci
dental killing of a negro boy, by a shot
gun in tho hands of a little white boy
named John Britt. The lads, with sev
eral others, were out hunting, and got to
playing with each other with their guns,
when Britt's gun was accidentally dis
charged—tho load of shot taking effect
in tho side of the negro hoy, and horribly
mangling hi* ribs, lungs and stomach.
He died in a few hours.
Yesterday and to-day tho weather has
been the coldest of tho season. The
mercury at 6 o'clock yesterday morning
was down to 24 degrees, plus zero, and
tliis morning at tho same hour, it stood
at 22. B. L>. S.
ErvAUts, Dec. 20,1873.
Baltimore and Ohio Itailroad.
Reviewing tho status and operations of
the Baltimore and Ohio railroad, which
has just re-elected Col. John W. Garrett
President for the fifteenth time, tho
Nashville Union says this road was the
first to essay crossing the mountains, and
has more curves, heavier grades and a
larger mileage of tunneling than any
other road in the country. And yet its
freight tariff has always been lower than
any of its trans-Alleghany rivals. That
its low rates have given ample compen
sation is shown in tho last annual report
of its president. The gross earnings of
the road and branches for tho year were
fifteen and a half millions, while its ex
penses wero only ten millions. The two
semi-annual dividends of fiva percent,
upon tho capital stock wero made and
paid in cosh, and the balance of not earn
ings of thG year carried to the surplus rev
enue capital account, which now amounts
to upwards of twenty-nino millions,
composed entirely of undivided not
comings. This creditable showing is
unparalleled in the history of oar mil-
roads, and explains why this company
lias not been effectod in the least by
tho panic. It has found no occasion to
discharge workmen or curtail salaries,
becauso it has always been run on a
sound business basis. Appreciating tho
fact that this road afforded tho shortest
and quickest transit from the Ohio basin
to tho coast, Col. Garrett first oxtended
his lines to Pittsburg, Cincinnati, St.
Louis and Chicago, and then established
a lino of Clyde steamers to Liverpool, to
carry furthor tho products of West and
South which his road brought to tho At
lantic. Already six first-class steamers
roceivo all tho traffic they can handle,
and this is but the beginning of better
things. With the disappearance of po
litical asperities, and tno riddance of
Western debts contracted in tho East
when gold was 2-10, and not all paid off
yet in greenbacks worth twice os much,
wo mny expect Western produco to seek
this short route to tho seaboard, until ten
or twenty times os many vessels will be
needed to carry it off.
Hartz’a Illusions.
A perfectly self-possessed and
lection* man, slight of stature,
slightly bald, appeared before the assem
bly in Robinson Hall lost evening to per
form his feats of sleight-of-hand. It was
Hartz, the Iruflmn box " With
ingenious smile he asked the ladies for
three finger rings. These be slipped on
the fingers of a white kid glove, which
he neatly rolled into a wad and put into
the barrel of a large pistol, and one of
the company was directed to fire at
small glass pedestal on a table. Simul
taneously with the discharge the glove
actually sprang up from the top of the
glass with the fingers extending into the
air, having the rings on them.
Three small flower pots filled with earth
were next examined by the spectators,
and nothing unusual could be found about
them or in the earth. Bat when the ma
gician placed a paper cone over them and
instantly removed it, flowering plants a
foot high appeared in full bloom. A silk
hat won borrowed, and so far as one could
see nothing was put into it. Hr. Hartz
rapped in it with his hand and held it up
for examination, and it seemed empty.
Then amid applause and amazement the
Professor drew oat a pile of handker
chiefs of all size*, colors and shapes;
also twenty-five tin cones, four of which
would more than fill the hat, ten square
quart boxes, twenty-five additional tin
cones, a pair of baby’s shoes, a canary
bird in a wooden engo as large os the hat,
a pack of playing cards, a large doll a foot
high, and a full-sized hoop skirt. Many
other wonderful feats were as artistically
performed. Last was the Indian box
trick, which proved tho marvel exhibition
of tho evening. A man was locked in a
tall bosket, placed on the box, which waa
enclosed in canvas and securely tied with
double ropes. In just two minutes the
man was in the box, and none of the
knots were disturbed nor tho seals broken,
and tho basket remained locked. The
Professor challenged Spiritualists to ex
plain the trick or to perform it.—Kew
Tori Sun, 24th.
CHRISTMAS GOODS I
NEW YEAR’S GOODS!
Connecticut Tobacco.
The culture of tobacco in the Connec
ticut Volley has been so profitable that
formers have coma to rely upon it os
their dependence. The result is that
they now find themselves with two crops
on hand, with littlo prospect of obtaining
any market for it, and a possibility of
utimately obtaining very low prices.
More than this, the tobacco is ruining
the soil for other crops. Perhaps 25.0UU
cases, containing from 325 to 375 pounds
each, would bo a tolerably correct esti
mate of tho amount of 1872 tobacco in
the possession of tho farmers of New
England, in addition to the considerably
larger quantity, including tho tobacco on
hand of previous years' crops, in tho
hands of local speculators. On top of
this rebundant crop of 1872 is piled the
abundant ono of this year.

Speaker Blaine on the Frnnk-
lng Privilege.
From the New York Times.J
The following letter from Speaker
Blaino to a gsntlomau in this city was
not written for publication, but as it re
fers sololy to a matter of public interest,
wo violate no propriety in giving it in
print:
WAsinsiaTOjr, D. C., Dec. 17, 1373.
Mr Deau Sib—Your note of inquiry is
at hand. You are in error in regard to
tho Post-office Committed of tho House
having prepared a hill for tho restoration
of the franking privilege to members of
Congress. The committee have, I under
stand, agreed upon a bill providing for
some method of supplying stamps for
the transmission of public documents
which wo print in such needless find ex
travagant profusion. It seems to me the
wiser and better way would bo to dis
pense with the documents. I never
could soo the justice or the propriety of
paying from the public treasury for the
printing of books for gratuitous distribu
tion among a small fraction of tho peo
ple. The enormous edition of tho agri
cultural report, for instance, though cost
ing so much, only affords 000 copies to
each Congr-isional district, where the
total population is 130,000, and the aver
age number of voters 25,000.
And then while members of Congress
can not be expected to pay the poatago
on a vast mass of public documents,
amounting in the aggregate to several
hundred dollars, it is quite safe to say
that the persons to whom tho documents
are addressed, would, in a largo majority
of coses, decline to take them from the
post-office if they had themselves to pay
the postage. The Government, there
fore. not only furnishes the book gratui
tously, but pays for tho transportation
besides. In order to induce people to ac
cept them. I think it wise to stop a
business of this kind, and thereby save
nearly or quite $2,000,000 annually to the
public purse.
As to restoring tho franking privilege
for the individual correspondence of
members, I can hardly conceive any ono
desiring it. There would be no possible
convenience resulting from the revival
that would compensate for the general
injustice and odium of the act, especially
at this time, when there has been no fair
trial of the new system. The personal
and official correspondence of any one
member is not large enough to be pecu
niarily burdensome. J ust remember that
$300 will pay the postage on 10,000 let
ters, and then find the Congressman that
writes half that number in a single year.
We have the cheapest postage, ell things
considered, of any people in the world,
and about the fairest thing I know of is
for every citizen, public and private, to
pay Bi* own shore of it. If I would vote
for any possible exception to the rale of
uniform and universal payment, it would
be in favor of newspaper exchanges and
the free circulation of county papers
within their own bailiwicks. Very sin
cerely yours, J. G. Blaixe.
Go ite a Fmnernl and a Dinner
Pnrty.
From the Chicago Tribone.]
Sr. Louts, December 22.—An incident
connected with President Grant’s recent
visit here is exciting some comment. He
came on Saturday with his family to at
tend the funeral of his father-in-law,
whose remains ore laid is Bellefontaine
Cemetery. The funeral took place on
Saturday, immediately after the arrival
of the party. Yesterday (Sunday) Gen.
William S. Harney, one of the pall
bearers. invited the President to a dinner
party at his residence in Lucas place.
The repast is said to bare been formal
and elegant, and about twenty of the
President's friends sat down to it. The
dinner will serve in history os a com
panion piece to the banquet given the
first gentleman of the nation by Poet-
tti Riley in the house over which
the red flag of a United States official
turned auctioneer waa flying-
Laivd.xui.et 'Williams is his name. It
came about in this wise: One of the accu
sations against Attorney General Wil
liams in the investigation now making
by the Senate Judiciary Committee, is
that tiro Government has been made to
pay for tho carriage used by Mrs. Wil
liams. Inquiry was made by the com
mittee, or some of its members, at the
Treasury Department, and tho following
voucher discovered:
Washihotom, D. C., Jan. 19,1872.
“Tie V. S. lu A. J. Joyce, Dr.:
“To one landaulet for Department of
Justice, $1,000. Ecceired payment.
A. J. Jotck.”
This carriage, it is said, was ordered
by Mrs. Williams for her own use, in ac
cordance with a custom which has ob
tained among a majority of the Cabinet
officers, and os there was no authority of
law for such an expenditure, the fact is
used now as an argument against the
confirmation of Hr. Williams to be Chief
Justico.
Pbouidition a Failure.—Boston, De
cember 24.—George B. Richmond of New
Bedford lias been nominated for one of
tho State Police Commissioners in place
of Martin Griffin, resigned. In connec
tion with his resignation Mr. Griffin says:
“I am now fully convinced that the pro
hibitory law as it now stands on tho
statute books is detrimental te tho cause
of temperance, and that it leads to cor
ruption and inefficiency.”

MANUFACTURED BY
Langdale’s Chemical Manure
(LIMITED.)
NEWCASTLE-ON-TYNE, ENGLAND.
Has the followins; Powerful Kecommendations for
Company
Planters
It is a genuine Englisli made Manure, the only ono in tho market, and manu
factured bytt. company having a capital of $1,250,000, which sells 40,000 tons annu
ally, and has the meet exteusivo works of the kind in Great Britain, which iiave
been in operation 24 years. The Longdale, therefore, lias a good pedigree and is no
experiment.
It contains a larger proportion of chemical elements suited for the promotion
of vegetable life, and especially of cotton, than any other fertilizer offered in the
South. It is tho best and safiist Cotton Manuro in tho market.
The analysis given with the Manuro when sold will be guaranteed. There shall
be no mistake about tho genuineness of the article, nor tho good faith of the vendors.
It is the cheapest Manure offered, as it coutoins nothing but what is of use in
becoming plant-food, or by chemical action on the soil, producing tho same. The
test of cheapness is not the price, but tho actual 'worth of tho article purchased.
Low-priced Manure cannot contain efficient quantities of pure and valuable chemi
cals, which can alone give worth to a fertilizer, and bring satisfactory results. The
Langdale is as low in prico as is consistent with the use of tho best ingredients, and
a fair commercial profit on its cost.
Tho employment of powerful machinery in mixing and pulverizing the ingre
dients prepares every particle for service, and prevents trouble in using. The Lang
dale is unequalled in this respect, and impresses every one who sees it os a perfectly
manipulated Manure.
In its composition and preparation it is tho result of careful scientific research
and experiment, confirmed by practical application for a quarter of a century. It
will be maintained at it3 present high standard, and is thus what planters have
long wanted-a thoroughly reliable and safe Manure.
