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. Sak’l Sharkey. LOOK HERE! V. i JUHAN & 60 an arcriviyo KEW FALL CALICOES.

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. Wm. D. C. —FKinhury .Vein. 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’.” WHITE, RED AMD OPERA FLANNELS.

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.
