Abolition or the Franking
Privilege. A prominent official in
Washington tas made an estimate of the
cost of abolishing the franking privilege
on the 1st of next month, which de
monstrates the fact that between seven
hundred thousand and a million dollars
will be expended in supplying Federal
officials with scales on which to weigh
their mail matter, and for printing cir
culars of instruction, and engraving,
printing and forwarding, postage stamps,
&c, to officers at distant points. It is
calculated that at most the abuse of the
franking piivilcgo involved an expmdi
ture by the Government of Dot exceed
ing three hundred thousand dollars per
year, and that, after supplying the wants
of the various Federal departments and
such individuals as may be entitled to
postago stamps at Government expense,
it will bo found that there will be no
saving to the Government by tho aboli
tion of the privilege. On the other
hand, there will be a loss, especially dur
ing the first year, of from four hundred
thousand to seven hundred thousand
dollars. Great stress will be laid upon
the above facts at the next session of
Congress, when an cfiort to revive the
franking privilege is to be made.

Pleasant for Tea Tipplers. It
may be of interest to those addicted to
the use of tea, to kuow that poisonous
adulteration of the article are becoming
common, and care should be exercised
in purchasing tbeherb. Some samples,
lately examined, showed a presence of
40 to 43 per cent, of iron filings and 19
per cent, silica. The sand had been
added to the leaves before curling for
the purpose of increasing the weight.
The leaves, on close inspection, were
also found to be coated with green pig
ment, and altogether the article was
found to be little less than deadly poison,
It has also been discovered that coperas
is freely used to give the article that pe
culiar flavor which regular tea-drinkers
so much relish.
Cheap Disinfectants. One pound
ot green copperas, costing seven cents,
dissolved in one quart of water, and
poured down a water closet will effec
tually destroy the foulest smell. About
hotels and other places, there is nothing
so nice to purify the air. Simple green
copperas dissolved undor the bed iu
anything that will hold water will reuder
a place for the sick, free from unpleasant
smells. For butcher's stalls, slaughter
houses, sinks, and wherever there are
offensive putrid gasses, dissolve copperas
and sprinkle it about, and in a low days
the smell will pass away. If a eat, rat
or mouse dies about the house and sends
forth an offensive gas, place sumo dis
solved copperas iu an open vessel near
the place where the nuisance is, and it
will soon purify the atmosphere.
Remedy for tue Caudate Worm-
A correspondent of the New York
Times, replies to a man who wants to
know how to free his cabbage from the
cabbage worm. "Thirty year's experi
ence ennbles me to tell him. Get what
is culled here ship-stuff, or hhorts such
as we feed to stock wheat bran will do
as good as shorts; examine the cabbage
before they head; if you see the web of
a caterpiller, or holes iu the leaves of
the bud, put a tablcspoonful of the
shorts in the head. If heavy rains fol
low, you may have to repeat. The cure
is effectual. The worms become mired
in the shorts made wet with the dew.
The worms seldom attack the cabbage
after they are headed.
Fatal Accident neaii North
Point. A young man named Warren
Green, in the employ of Messis, Mensch
& Loweustine, lumbermen, at j North
Point, was so seriously injured while en
gaged coupling cars, on last Tuesday a
week, that he died on the following
morning. Messrs. Mensch & Loweu
stine, in order to facilitate their busiuess,
havo built a narrow gauge railway some
three luiles in length from their mill
into the mountains, which they use for
hauling saw-logs. As usual and pre
vious to this sad accident, the logs were
placed on tho cars, and preparations
made to eouple them together, but not,
observing the length which the logs ex
tended over the cars the unfortunate
man's head was caught between tbeai
as they came together, aud crushed and
injured so horribly that death soon en
sued. We understaud that be was a
resident of Beech Creek, where he has
a wife now living. Renovo Record,
