S„rth Carolina will ahown large increnae

that North Carolina ia destined to be
one of the bearieat rot tun producing
States in the Union, and it will bo the
product, in grant part, of white labor and

good and abundant j but where tho .ur-

law been a failure—drowned out by tho
rsrewxive rain*.
It is said there ha. l.-en a filial turpen

and kill enough member, each month to
make a big divvy at the end of a Cantos n
ptiod. Second, n.»w whiaky improve-
and strengthens with age. A lioiTel of
new whiskey will stand four bucket, of
water every month, thim largely increas
ing it* volume. Then the likker U boaght
at flO cents a gallon. which ia e&sqpcr
than hy the r in^le drink. There ia 64
drinka in a (fallen, for which, at Buatard'i
price, 5 centa, you paj £3 00. I fingered
»t this way. (I outfht to hare been con
sulting Aet/joary.) For convenience, we
put the price at $1 00 a ^rallon.
100 m* • m lx? ra, payinc 25 oen ta per
week, iqDgtTtf money enough
in a month t*> buy 1 gallon
each, mrifretfating ..10C|gifla
Add 4 gallons of water a month
to each barrel of 44 gallons... 10 galls.
Total likker on hand os found at
end of Canteen period. .. 110 galls.
There is about 64 average drink* in a
gallon—this 110 gallons makes, there
fore, 7/HO drinks, which, at Bastard's,
would cost $352.
But the advantage don’t end here. It
is safe to estimate that, of the number
who are in originally, one-half of them
will drop out, which redoooc^ the mem
bership to 60; and at the frpirushun of
the first Canteen period, the account
would leave 110 gallons to be divided
among 50 members, who hod paid only
$1 each, giving each one of them nearly
gallons.
For obvious reasons, I didn’t say any
thing about rent uv offices, salaries uv
fficers, committees, and so on, for the
time hodn’t come for that.
The idea took gloriously. We put up
board, which we lettered: “ Dtpkdtoiy
v the Canteen Association,” and before
night we had one hundred members,
of whom had chucked in his quar
ter, and was regularly enrolled as
memfier.
This gives us a fund of $25 to start on,
and we held a meeting to determine as
to our mode uv operation. There wos a
mat deal to do. In the first place, we
hodn’t determined what we was entitled
to for commission on tho policies; then
came a question as to who wos to go to
Cincinnati to buy the liquor, and as to
what brokerage wos to lie paid whoever
wos selected; and then, finally, we hed
to determine what salaries wos to be paid
the officers.
This wo shall do to-morrow. But the
Canteen Association of Bourbonville is a
fixed fact. It is in good runnin order.
U’e shell all start out to get now mem
ber*. so that the flow of money shall be
kept up regular and uninterrupted.

Bor khon vii.t.c, Ta., Aug. 25.1873.
Labor may bo Hoavon’* firet law, but
it ain’t mine, nor my second, neither. I
her tailored in ray ttay, but it was only
when all other means of obtainin one
meal and twenty drink* per diem hod
failed; and those period* have been to
me the bitterest reeollec*hun* of an
eventful life. And with the inemriea of
them dark days still ranklin within tno,
how terrible wo* my feelin* when Am
Bustard, the keeper of the only grosery
at Bourbonville, notified me, in the moat
peremptory manner, that henceforth and
furever. I could hev neither cracker* nor
whisky at hi* bar, without monov, or, at
least, putting up something that ho could
in time turn into money.
But, thank Heaven. Bustard can’t
chain lightnin. nor con hi* fetter intellect,
mind is, and always lias been, superior to
matter. I hev found a way not only to
boat Bustard, but to cTenchouallv rooin
liitu. which I shall retnoreclcwily do. It*
a big thing in the world to do all the
business; its a bigger thing to main and
blast your opponents.
1 got my idea by chance. When Bus
tard declined to give me my regular nip,
I sot pensively on the table in front of
his Iwr, and to calm my perturbed soul
until I could determine on something. I
pickl'd up a life in*hooronce pamphlet,
and mechanically dropped my main
eye* onto its page*. It was an advertise
ment of a skvem railed the Tontine Plan.
I mu! it,and ahrivkod '•Eureka.’* "Now,”
seil 1 to myself, '‘tremble. Bustard.”
It appeared, from this, that a number of
men clubbed together, and put in a pool
so much money each, every year, nnd never
took nothing out, ’oept at stated periods,
m*v every ten year*. Those who died in-
rido of tLat time, and those who, for any
reason, got tired of payin, did not hev
any claim watever on wot was in the
pool, the whole of it beta# divide*! np
aaaong those who held out faithful to the
end.
I said to myself, what can bo done in
New York, in a marble palace, con be
done in Bourbonville, in a slab shanty,
and done on the same equitable system.
And who knows but what, with such a
promising plan; the slab shanty may grow
into a marble palace. This soil is as good
for mushroom* ns that further east. I
determined to start a Tottin# fmaj.
The firet thing was a now; and to the
end that its objects might be understood
by everybody. I called it the Canteen
1 ...liedon three «>f Bustards custo-
rs, who wos in the same fix I vros in.
and developed the skeem to them, to
which they assented, remarking, philoso
phically, that they’d go into it, anyhow,
as they had everything to make, and
nothin to lose.

At
IIekc is something remarkable: A
woman in Now Haven was recently bereft
of her scalp by the idiosyncracios of a
shaft and belt. The doctors saw that to
remedy the evil they would have to re
course to transplanting, and ao they ac
tually succeeded in getting a sufficient
number of pieces from other people’s
heads to give this unfortunate woman a
new scalp. We hope those New Haven
doctors used more discretion than did he
who at tended it man named Finlay, who
met with n similar accident in Oriskany,
N. Y., some thirty years ago. Bits of
scalp from seventeen different persons
were secured by this doctor and adroit
ly stitched to the head of Mr. Finlay.
When it was done, people came miles
to sec Finlay’s head, and Finlay him
self, with his checker-board cranium,
was the happiest man in Oriskany.
But when the capiliary glands got in
working onler, and the luiir commenced
to grow, the top of that man’s head pre
sented the most extraordinary spectacle
on record. Tho doctor, who was about
half the time in liquor, had consulted ex
pediency rather than judgment, and se
cured that now scalp without any refer
ence to future developments. Wo never
saw anything like it. Here was a tuft of
yellow hair, and next to it a bit of black,
and then a flame of red, and a little liko
silk, and more like tow, with brown hair
and gray hair and sandy hair and cream
colored hair scattered over his entire
skull. And what a mail man that Finlay
was, and nobody could blame him. He
would stand up ngain»t the l«im for on
hour at a time and sob and swear. It
was very fortunate that the doctor was
dead. He went off two weeks before with
blue ague, which is a mild sort of disease.
Finlay kept his hair cut short, but tliat
didn’t make any difference.
Then he tried’dyes, but they only made
matter* worse. Then be got a wig, and
this covered np the deformity; but some
times at church ho would get asleep, and
the wig would fall off and make the chil
dren cry. Once at the counter fair he
fell asleep and the wig tlropped off, and
the committee on dome tic goods when
they came around, stood in front of Fin
lay’s head for some five minutes in wrapt
delight. They then decided it was the
most ingenious piece of patch work in
tho list, and never discovered the mistake
until they attempted to pin the premium
card to it. At that Finlay awoke and
knocked down the chairman of the com
mittee and chased the others out of the
building. We hope those New Haven
doctor* have been more particular, os it
is not a subject to trifle with.

How Daniel Drew Spells Door.
The Chicago Post vouches for the fol
lowing story : A good story is told by a
friend of Daniel Drew, which tho news of
his illness calls up. Remaining one even
ing late in the office, and having occasion
to use tho safe, ho permitted the cashier
to go home, remarking tliat he would
close the safe an ! fix tho combination on
tho word "dour.” But when tho cashier
undertook to open tho safe in the morn
ing he found the lock refused to yield to
the magic "door.” Ho tried and tried
again, but without success. Finally,
liappening to remember # that Daniel’s
curly education had been* neglected, be
attributed his ill luck to poor orthogra
phy. Ho therefore tried the lock upon
•dore.” Still no success; nnd then upon
door,” with no better fortune. Finally,
becoming disgusted, he proceeded to the
St. Nicholas, routed “Dan’l” out of his
choicest morning nap, and as he stuck his
nightcap out of the door the colloquy en
sued : "Mr. Drew, I can’t open the safe on
door.* You must hnve concluded to change
the word." "Change tho word! Nothin’
o’ tho kind. I shut it on ‘door* ” "Are
you sure, sirF* "Sure, sir, you taraal
ape; of course I’m sure! Go back to
your work, and don’t come foolin’ roun*
here this time o’ the morning’.” "Well,
perhaps, Mr. Drew, I don’t *q»ell the word
right. How did you spell it ?” "Spell
it! Any fool can spell door. D-o-a-r-e,
dooro, of course, sir. If yon can’t spell
door, sir, you’r no cashier for me. Pick
up your duds and go ont of the "door.* ”
And shutting the ••door” in the cashier’s
Daniel returned to his bed in a pas
sion, and the clerk to his safe. Armed
with the open sesame of "doare,” how
ever. the safe flow open without further
trouble, and when Daniel arrived, molli
fied by a good breakfast and his morning
prayer, he advised his cannier that he
might keep his place provided he would
improve his time and ‘‘go tu spellin’
ikool ia the evenin’.”

Tlie Charleston Strike.
The News and Courier of Monday says *
On Friday and Saturday the strike,
whack bona in the city a week ap\ had
extended to all the phosphate mills on
Ashley river. The hands in the Etiwan
and Pacific mills struck first, and, sul**?-
quently, forced the hands in the Atlantic
mills, to strike. On Friday these hands,
variously armed and equipped, proceeded
to the Stono Phosphate Works to com-
pel a strike among the laborers there.
The superintendent, however, informed
them that they could cot come on the
premises, and after uttering the usual
threats they left- On Saturday morning
they posted themselves on the road lead
ing* to the mills, and when the mill hands
came alon^r in a wagon on their way to
work, the strikers stopped them and
forced them to join the crowd. The
wantons were allowed to go on to the mills
without tho laborers.
On Friday night several negro laborers
were beaten by the strikers, outride the
citv limits. The strikers* did not inter
fere with the white hands at work at the
mills. All the milk were closed on Sat
urday, and will probably be closed for
SK.nie time to come. The owners have
positively refused to give the advanced
wages demanded by the strikers, and will
