The net loss is considerably more than a hundred thousand dollars, and all be cause the church had bought an expensive musical instrument before it had the money to pay for it.

AT last General Grant has been heard from on the Presidency question. A friend of the General's—name not given—met him at the Governor's reception in Nevada and asked what fie thought concerning his nomina tion. General Grant answered without hesita tion and with emphasis, "I sincerely hope no necessity will arise calling for my nomination." Come to look at it, forward anil backward, from above and below, standing up and lying down, and finally ending it up to take a more thorough view, tfiere is a sort of indefinitness. as it were, about this answer when considered as a refusal. — Ex. We d > not believe that Grant ever made the conceited answer here credited to him, for he must well knoar that it is impossible for any contingency to arise in this country necessitating the calling of any one particular citizen to the Presidential chair.

SINCE the addition has been built to the Carbon Black factory at the station on the Branch road, B,(MM) gas jets have been burning day and night. The gas is conducted from the well to a large tank or meter and from it in parallel lengths, of 2 inch g;is pipe, through the building. Along the sides of these are fitted short branches of A gas pipe, terminating in a slight upward curve and tip|>ed with or dinary gas burners of 0 foot per hour capacity. Above these burners, at a distance of 10 inches, are placed a series of (Mist iron plates, contigu ous and forming a smooth surface whereon the carbon black is deposited. A small car travel ing on rails laid between burners and plates, and furnished with a scraping device, plies forward and back every ten minutes during the twenty-four hours. This earrage is pro pelled by steam power, operating through wire rope and suitable gearing, drums, etc. The smoke or carbon black is scraped into pans hung upon the car, and these are dumped at each end of the route into receptacles, which are in turn emptied and deposited in tne puri fying and packing house. After limply re moving cinders, etc., by passing through sieves, the soot is ready for the market. It is then packed in bust-wood barrels mode*especi ally for the purpose, ami then shipped to New V'ork. Two qualities of the black arc made, the finest for use in manufacturing job ink, and the other for news Ink. We do not know what the production of the works is, though we see it stated in the Scientific Ami-riant, that each burner will produce 4 pound daily. What (he black is worth also, we do not know, and we can sec no quotations in our daily ex changes, but if the price of the finer article correspond* in any degree with that of job ink for which we pay from $1 to $2 per pound, the manufacture of Carbon Black is undoubtedly a very profitable business. A new works is be ing built at Murravsville, Westmoreland county ( and Captain llazlett's works at Den ny's mills will soon be in operation. Wkent I Wheat!

[From the Pittsburgh Sunday Leader, Nov .'so.] Thanksgiving day was so bright and beautiful that many persons hav ing leisure took advantage of it and came to the Studio of Sperber, in Allegheny, in such numbers that all the resources of this model establishment were not able to meet the demands and many had to go away without having their Photographs taken. This could not be prevented, though partly foreseen and supposed to he provided for; but when patrons come so fast that it is impossible to serve then all, it is to be hoped that this explanation will show how sorry .Mr. Sperber is that some were disappointed in not being served. Hut he wishes us to state that lie will treat all alike, and invite those who have been at his Studio and those who have never been there, to call on him and examine his work, and, if he is thronged with work, to make engage ments for sittings, which will be faith fully adhered to. .Mr. Sperber is ac knowledged by all artists to be a first class workman, and t he best test of all is that his pictures always please and are much sought for.
