Adventures in Pigtail and Petticoats. An English trader, who essayed to make hisvvay by land from China to Calcutta, and for that purpose assumed the dress of a Chinaman "the sume with intent to deceive" has given to the world the story of his adventures, in a volume which he ealls the "Travels of a Pioneer of Commerce in Pigtail and Petticoats." His name is T. T. Cooper. It appears from his unpretentious narative that lie encouutered every kind of dis comfort during the whole journey.. Once the caual removal of his spectacles brought a mob of Chinamen around hint lie was loudly hooted an J one man. be ing the wur.-e for drink, caught hold ol his i-kirts aud ueaily pulled him back ward. Luckily, Mr. Cooper's assailant happened to be humpbacked and very ugly, so u prolouud bow to liirn and a rcvereutial ese'atnation of "Surely, this a gre:it soldier." tickled tlic keen sense of ridicule which is implanted iu the Chinese, and turned the tables. Mr. Cooper was not quite so pacific when he met a great mandarin on his journey, and was upct into a newly QooJe J p-duy tield by thj great tu:.o's outriders. ' The sol 'iters'" says Mr. Cooper, "ordered my fellows oil the ro;id into a field, and on their naturally objecting, oue of the soldiers, without more a Jo, rode at my chair, knocking chair and coolies head over heels into the tield. Fortunately no great harm was done beyond a wettiug and bespattering with the solt mud, about rtwo feef deep, in which I left my satin boots while struggling to regain the road For a moment Mr. Cooper showed fight, making a rush at the soldier, and in tending to drag him off his pony; but he thought better of it, for the maudariu, who followed with a large escort, would no doubt have takec summary vengeance. Another danger to which Mr. Cooper Was exposed may seem to cast some refiectiou on the system tf competitive ezamina tions in China. One of the towns that he visited was crowded wiih candidate for literary and military honors, and the result of their presence in the place was that all Christian inhabitants had left, and a stranger could not show himself iu public. Hands of riotous ami excited students were constantly going up aud duwu tlic streets ; and Mr. Cooper heard that the jear before a number of tho.e candidates h id wrecked the house of a Christian bishop. Mr. Cooper haJ more than one exper ience of the .superstitious fears of I. is Chinese boatman. lie once happened to spit oter the bow. and was immediately pulled violently back by one of the men. who sai l be had oflende the wind god. It was necessary to propitiate that deity by an offering 1' crackers', and thec were solemr.ly let t fi the same evening Another time, when the boat was iu a narrow and rocky gorge, with perpen dicuhir sides rising fc-U'J feet or DUO feet high, Mr. Cooper gave the Australian cry of "cohee." which was ausweie J by a thousand echoes. AW of a sudden a large mnsa of rock. of t-evcral tons in weight, Jeil with a noi like thunder, crashing first on a projecting crag, 200 feet or li'JO feet above the boat, and then plunging into the river within ten yards of it, deluging it with the spray. Mr. Cooper himselt fhU'JJcrca at toe danger lie had so narrowly escaped ; but his crew were on their kness, aud did not ttir till every echo awakned by the crash and plunge bad died away among the distant hills. They then told Mr Cooper that he had nj:ide the god of the hills very angry, aud had caused him to hurl this great rock at the boat ; they proposed, therefore, to aehor at once and burn some sacred taper A this request was not granted, the boatmen made up for it by burning a greiit quantify of l;ij ers that evening, and letting oil so many crackers that Mr Cooper found sleep almost out of the question. , JJut the most perplexing predicament ia which Mr. Cooper found himself involved was his unconscious marriage to a native maiden. Here is his story : He was just hatting for breakfast, after leaving the Thibetan towu of Uithaiig. whcci a group of girls, gaily dressed aud Jeeted wiih garlands of Howrfrs, came cut of a grove aud surrounded him, eouje of them holding his taule. w hi!e others as sifted him to alight. He wa then led into the grove, where he found a feast being prepared, and after he had eaten and smoked his pipe, the girls came up to him again, pulling along iu their mid-t a pretty girl of sixtceD, attired in a silk dress, aud adorned with rarlan Ji of flowers 'I had already noticed," Mr. Cooper continues, "tins girl sitting apart from the others during the meal, aud was very much astouished when he was reluctantly dragged up to me, and made to seat her self by my side; and my astonishment was considerably heightened when the rest of the girls began to dance arouod us in a circle, singing atid throwing their garlands over myself and my companion." The meaning of this performance was. however, soon made clear to Mr. Cooper. Ne had been married without knowing it. At first he tried to escape the liability entailed upon him, but such an outcry was made by all the people round that he was forced to carry olf his bride. He managed to get rid of her before very long, by transferring her to one of tier re lulicns ; but even that wan not treated as a dissolution of the Biarriie. Oa his way back he was joined by a Thibetan dame, of about thirty five years old, who announced herself as his wife's mother, and said that she had come, with the consent of her husband, to supply her daughter's place. We" can well imagine Mr. Cooper's surprise at meeting with this novel proposal on the part of his mother iu law. Ar. Y. Commercial Ad certiser. Winter Along the Northern Pacific Rail road. -' . Mr. W. Mil nor Roberts, Chief Engineer of the Northern Pacific Railroad, in a let ter. dated February 27, 1873, makes the following authentic statement : Oa the fiuihed line across Minnesota, from Duluth to Fargo, the road has been run all winter with remarkable regularity and freedom from snow difficulties. There lias been lcs necessary delay on the Northern Pacific lload this winter than upon the roads ea?t of it to Chicago and New York Considerable snow has fall cn iu eastern Minnesota this winter, but Mere has not been an unusual amount in the western part of the State and across Dakota. The occasional snow fences op posite the excavations have served their purpose well. In common with the rest of the couu try and with Europe Minesota, Wiscon sin. Iowa and the entire Northwest have had a most unusual winter season. There have been some days of very severe weath er, but it was quite as cold about the same period iu most of the Eastern States In January, at Duluth, the thermome ter ranged as follows during the middle of the day ; average, 12 above zero ; low est on the Dlh when it was 8 below zero; thes highest, 22 above, on the 20th. Absolute lowest, early in the morning of the 28th, 25 below zero. At Duluth. in February, to the 15th, average, 20 above; lowest, 1 below ; highest. 31 above zero; absolute lowest, early in the morming of the 2d 17 below. At Fargo, on t he western border of Minnesota, in the open praire of Red River Valley, the range of the thermome ter iu January was as follows; average. ( above , lowest, 10 below ; highest, 81 above zero; absolute lowest, early in the morning of the Dth, oi) below zero. At Fargt), in February, to the 15th, the average was 11 above; lowest, 10 be low ; highest, 33 above ; absolute lowest, on the 1st. 10 below zero. Iu the Rocky Mountains, east of the main divide, at Rozemati. near tho high est elevation of the Northern Pacific route, from the 5lh to the 25th of January in elusive, the average temperature was 35 above zero ; lowest, 2i above ; highest. 44 above ; absolute lowest, early iu the morning the 23d, Hi3 above zero. It is noticeable bow much milJer the weather has been at Rozemau, uear Fort Ellis, and about 5000 leet above the seat, than in Minnesota aud Wisconsin, near the level of the lakes. The farmers of wes tern Montana began their spring plough ing in the latter part of January, the wiu ter in that section being considered over, and the roads were dry and dusty. Ou the western slope of the. Rocky Mountains, in castcru Washington Tern tory, the IochI papers state that the far mers of Walla Walla valley were plough ing their fields on the 20th of January, though the early part of the winter had beeo, as elsewhere, unusually cold for the region. 'I lie winter climate along the Pacific Division of our road, between the Colum m bia River aud Puget Sound, which is in regular daily operation. m;iy be inferred from the fact that at Portland, Oregon, the averge temperature for January was 45 above zero; highest was 5S and the lowest 34 above Snow fell on one day. the 2nd, to a depth of 21 and a half inches Grass has been green throughout the win ter about Puget. ound, and several varie ties of flowers were in bloom out of doors in January and February. Our experience on the finished line, and authentic reports from the remainder of the route, satisfy me that the Northern Pacifie Road, if completed from Lake Superior to Puget Sound, would have beeu kept in regular operation the entite distance the last wiuter without difficulty. Save the Best Fowls for Breeding. Tt is the worst possible policy to kill - i all the best aud handsomest fowls, ami save only the mean and scraggy oucs to breed from. This is precisely the way to ruu out your stock ; for like tends to breed like: and the result is. that by continually taking away the best birds, and using the eggs of the poorest, your flock will grow poorer aud poorer every succeeding year. It would seem as though this was too plain to be insisted upon, but, iu fact, line unon line" is needed. It is the crying want of the poultry upon the farms the country through, tins careiui aud intelligent selection of the best for breeding. Nothing is lost by a little self denial to start wiih. The extra pound or two ol poultry flesh that you leave on its legs, instead of sending it to the market, is as good seed, and will bring forth ten fold nnd twentv-fold in your luture broods Save your bestatock fur breeding. Foul try World. ' . . One Charles Clarkson, of ilnys City. has killed 3,000 buffaloes ia the last four months. Blasting in a Coal Mine. "Down in a coal mine" is a locality which, although immortalized iu a pop ular air ground out at the rate of some twenty times a day by wheery hand or gans under our wiudows, is not the most inviting place in the. world to eke out one's existence. We descend the shaft with a disagreeable feeling of going, we know not whither, save some where into the depths of a black pit, which yawns beneath us. Once, at the bottom, there is a damp oppressive feeling in the air ; the rock overhead drips dirty water down upon us, and occasionally an icy stream crawls down our back, sending a disagree able shudder . from head to foot Of course we get bewildered ; the lu-ht from the little lamp in our oil skin hat is very dim and smoky, and casts a sort of uncer tain radiance for about three feet in ad vance, throwing great black shadwos which leave us in a kind of unpleasant doubt whether or not we shall suddenly step into some abyss and disapear forever into the bowels of the earth. We trudge through countless leads, now scrambling over timbers, then com pressing ourselves into incredibly small compass in order to crawl through the narrowest of openings. There is a con glomeration of coal dust and mud under foot that sticks to our shoes like glue. We trip over the rails, and bruise every square inch of our bodies against the sharp angles of the rough walls, while our hands and faces, within a very few minutes, partake of the somber hue of our surroundings. Soon we encounter a party of miners, rough, hardy looking men. far healthier thau we should believe would be the case with beings whose labor is carried on away from the light of day They are preparing a blast, or guide tells us, and we draw near to watch the operation, but speedily retire in dismay at the appareut ly careless handling of the powder in elose proximity to the unguarded flames of the lamps. The men manifested oo concern, and are all coolly smoking or chattiog. Now, the charges are ready, and one of the miner's lights the ' fuse from his pipe We scramble precipitely to a safe posiiion in total disregard of either dirt, wet, or bruises ; and then, in a state ol suspense, we stop our eirs and wonder wluth r t lem ikewill leave us entiiely or only an tally suffocated The men lounge lazily outof the way, forming a little group by themselves, aud pulF quietly at their pipes. A fiish then a deew mufileJ exp'to sion, which echoes through the long caverns, and is followed by the the rutcb ling and ctah of the falling dtbri elou Is o! dense sulphurous smoke fill the chamber, rising up to the roof and cur liug away toward the shaft. We get down close to the floor with a handkerchief n very grimy one by this time over our nose and inwardly yearn for onebretth of fresh air. Meanwhile the blasters wait until the smoke dis perses, and the atmosphere becomes less stifling; then they resume work. Some pile the detached bit, of coal iu heaps, and others fill the tubes. Thn the mules are signalled for. and we bear the noise of their hoofs approaching, mingled with thesoundsof blows and an alarming chorus of expletives on the part of the drivers The animals arc attached to the tubs. and. after arguing some time to with their at tendants. mule fashion, by drumming ou the wagons with their heels, refusing to stir, or manifesting an unconquerable disposition to lie down, they are at length persuaded, through the agency of a club or by being banged about the head with a lump of coal, that resistance is useless, when they reluctantly start off no a slow jog trot. U'c follow the to them shaft, leav ing the miners swinging their picks or hammering nt their drills, apparently careless of the dark heavy atmoswhere around them. Exchange. Boys Listen to This. True as the gospel is the following said by Robert Collyer of Chicago. "It is true that the working, success full men today were once poor, indus trious self reliant boys. And the same thing will bo repeated for from the ranks of the hard working, economical temperaate aud persevering boys of to day, will cmenate the progressive promi uent men of the future. "Every man doing any sort of work in Chicago to-day, was raised a poor man's son and had to fight his way to his place. Not one of them, as I can ascertain, whs a rich man's son, and had a good time when he was a boy. All boys should grow as strong ns a steel bar, fighting their way to an education, and then when they are ready, plunge into life with that traditional half dollar and a little bundle tied up in a red handkerchief as I have known great men start. I tell you that iu five aud twen'y years when most of us that are in our middle ages have gone to our rettibuiion. the mnn of mark in their countrv will not be the sons of those whose fathers can give them all they wish for, and ten times more than they ought to have but will be those who are brought up on farms houses and cottages, cutting their way through the thickest hindrance of every sort; ami all the brown stone houses of this metropolis will be as Doth in" to brtDg out the oob'e ilcu. THE VENTRILOQUIST IN THE DOCK. Quite an exciting tin. e, says the Cleve land Herald, occurred at oue of our wharves recently Three hands on one of the steamers were engaged in rolling off a cask, when, to the cousternation and surprise of those engaged in the operatiou, a voice was heard within the cask. "Roll it easy ; the plaguey nails hurt Pd rather pay my passage than stand all this." Holding their hands up, their visuals extended to the size of two saucers, the laborers exclaimed : "That beats the Dickens !" The mite coming up at. this moment and unaware of the cause of delay, com menced cursing them lor their dilatori uess, when from withiu the cask the voice came forth : "You're nobody, let me out of this cask 'What's that said the mate. 'Why, it's me,' said the voice ; I waut to get out ; I won't staud this any long er.' 'Up end the cask said the mate. "O don't ! you'll kill me!' said the voice. 'O, how these nails prick ! Look out don't do it again said the Casked up individual, as they were turning it over. 'Cooper, uiihead that cask, and take out that man. As the adz sundered the hoops and the head was coming out, the voice again broke forth : Re easy now ; is there any one about 1 I don't want to be caught.' Quite a crowd had gathered around the scene of action, then a guttural laugh broke forth, that made our hair staud on end, and the cask was fouuJ filled with bacon. 'What does it mean' ? says one. 'It beats my time,' said the mate. We enjoyed the joke too well to blow as we walked off arm in arm with the ventriloquist and magician. THE LADY'S MAN. Our own private opinion on the "lady's man," sa) Mrs Stephens, is that he is thoroughly contemptible a sort of life hardly worth thinking of a nutshell with the kernel withered up something not altogether upleasant to the fancy, but of no earthy ue. A woman of sense would as soon put to sea in a man of war made ol shiugle-, or take up her residence iu a card house, as dream ot attaching herself to a lady killer Wom'en worth the uatne are seldom de eeived iuto thinking our lady's man the choicest specimen of his sex. Whatever their iguorance may be, womanly intui tiou must tell them that the men who live for a great object, anil whose spirits are so firmly knit together that they are able to encounter the storms of life men whose depth and warmqji of feeling te semble the powerful eurreut of a mighty river, and tnt the bubbles on its surface who, if they love, are never smitten by mere beauty of form or features that these men are more worthy even of oe cupying their thoughts in idle moments, thau the tops and men about town, with whine attentions they amuse themselves f we were to tell him this he would only laugh he has no pride about him, al though full of vauity, and it matters not to htm what we may broadly affirm or quietly insinuate. Soft aud delicate though he is, he is as impervious to ridicule as a hod carrier, aud as regardless of honct contempt as a ciiy alderman. Were you to hand him this article, he would take it to some so cial party aud read it aloud in the most melifluous tone, as an homage to his own attractions. A New Article of Food. Mr. Cleorgc G. Campbell, of Oswego. N. Y., has patented as a new" article ol food an improved mixture of rye and corn uiead, to- be used iu making rye and IndL'Ti bread. It-is claimed that the mixture of the two substances in large qualities, may be made so as to obviite the necessity of scalding t tin corn meal before adding the rye floor, as the usual custom. The rye meal is first sifted through a screen of suitable fineness iu order to remove the coarsest portions ; and it is then combined with about an equal quantity of corn meal. The mixture in theu placed iu suitable packages for market. The inventor claims that by sifting the rye meal to such finenes that its granules will be permeated by the ferment uni formly with the corn meal ; the necessity of fust scalding the meal is obviated aud that this necessity is all that has practical ly prevented the two meals Ikmu being mixed belure they were pat upou the market. A young man in Bean Hill, Conn, was wanted as a witness in a liquor case. He saw the constable coming for him, rushed into a tannery, and hid himsell iu the sweating room, where, the hair is loosened from the skins by steam.

Josie Mansfield was last heard from in the gambling saloons of Monoca, Itafv, where the won 3,000 iu one night. A Three Million Failure for S3.0C0. There is a curious story afloat about th? grcit failure of James Wo3 & S-ois. nf Pittsburgh It seems that since the death of the founder of the hoac. the busiue has beeu in the bands of the soot. t!nr in number On the day of the crash' the two older brothers were absent and in other parts ot the couutty. the yuuug est d all being left iu charge Word came to him !r"in the cashier of the bank with which they did business, that a' note of S3 000 was due. and n'o money in the bank to meet it The cashier would have paid it, if asked to do so, ' or would have been ready to place eeti S5 000 to tin credit ot the firm if they should so de sire. Rut the young man upon whom the res-potisibilily rested expressed no such request, and nothing was lelt lor the ra-h ier to do but to let the note go to protest The fact ol the firm's failure to meet tbisv obligation soon became known animia the" creditors, whose piper begati to pour io with uncomfortable rapidity, so that iu a few days the only course left the firm was to make an assignment in order, it pos sible, to get a lreh start Thus t Was that a firm which had three and a half million assets, and omy two thirds that amount of liabilities, failed for 3.000. Another interesting point iu connece tion with this great failure is the state me tit that the creditors' are said to expects, to be able to make good their claims up on the estate itself, which is rumored to be worth fully S7.000.000 This claim is based upon the fact that there was no notice of dissolution of partnership after the death of James Wood, his sons hav ing continued the business without th' advertisement oi any charge iu the o? gauizatiou of the firm.
