Bat as to carrying Samnda'e vessels in their heavy sections without carta and camels, you might aa well move 8t.Paul\u2019a Cathedral in wheeL barrowa.Tbe Englishmen have constructed the 108 ton steamer here aa tbe only class of steamer that can pass the Bahir Giraffe.This is a great credit to them and to ktessrs.Samuda and Penn.The other steamers must wait until camels shall be sent up from Khar, toom.There must be a general reform in the Soudan before any great work can be accomplished ; their are no boats fit for the.long river voyage, and everything becomes ruined from exposure to tbe weather befoie it arrives b< re.There are large quantities of ivory here that we cannot ship for want of vessels.When I see the Viceroy I shall be able to manage mattera for the future.1 I have laid good foundations, and I have fongbt against many enemies with an absurdly »maU force, resulting in annexation of all countries, inolodfug Unyoro, which extends to the Equator.!'\t\\ .\t- Not only have I had to contend with the natives, but the so-cal led traders broke into open rebellion, and attacked the govenunent troops treacherously, in force, when in the interior.These I routed with the loss of half their party.My entire party was in danger of destruction by poison when in Unyoro.This diabolical attempt waa made by the King, who attacked us with immense forces on the following morning at daybreak.I bad only 105 men, but we gained the battle of Masindi and annexed the cour try.I have established stations and forte, and the countries are in the hands of tbe government.The natives pay their taxes cheerfully throughout large districts.The officers and troops are in good health and spirits.Tbe slave trade of tne White Nile is suppressed and my work is oven.: .Lady Baker has accompanied me throughout the Journey, with great fatigue, having had to march on foot for great distance», amid constant fighting for sevea consecutive days.We have, thank God, ! been always in good health, end the troops have not suffered much loss of life, considering tbe exposure.In fifteen months I only lost one man from sickness out of 212.V ! The Englishmen are all pretty well, but I have to lament the Ion of poor Mr.Higgen-bothom, who was my able assistant.: We are now waiting for a rise in the Nile for tbe start to Kbartoom, where I shall poet this letter, with many kind regards from my wife wife 4c., very sincerely yonrs, Sajsusl Baku.i ty Circumventing a Swindler, The other day a young man called at the union Pacific general ticket office in Omaha, and requested a strictly private and confidential interview with the gentleman in charge.This being accorded him, he mysteriously folded back the lappel of his vest and showed a small metallic shield with the word \u201cDetective\u201d on it \u2019,n raised letters.Then he gravely pointed to a paie ol handcuffs which be carried in bis inside pocket.He explain-pd that he was in the employ of the Government Secret Service, and had started for a Western city on the line of tfie road.He had lost his wallet containing bis money and hi?ticket.What should he do t Clearly there was but one way.The Company must pass him, for justice could not be defrauded of her right.The man be was going for was \u201cshoving the queer\u201d up the road, and must be stopped.After consultation and some delay it was decided to issue the detective a pass, provided he would sign an order on the Secret Service Department for its pay.Of course he would, and he did.Then he took bis pass and departed in a happy frame of mind.He had only left tbe office a few minutes when a message went over the wires to Washington, and presently an answer came that no man of tbe name given was In the employ of the Secret Service.He was then on a westward-bound train, happy witb his pass in bis pocket, but a telegram was sent ahead to tbe next station, directing the conductor to take up that pats and collect full fare, whith waa done.New» is scarce in Minnesota; in the effort to present something fresh, a Laoesboro paper Las found it nect-ssary to publish the Ten Commandments.The editor of the Elmira, N T Gasette went to Csllfornia [to recover his health, and came home so fat that he has to sit on the sidew alk to write his editorials.The retiring editor of the Ida County.Iowa., Pioneer wrote his valedictory in two words, \u201cGood night.\u201d His successor's salu-tory conoisted of \u2018 Good morning.\u201d\u2014JfcraM A merchant who has a Jclaas in Sunday school,asked, \u201cWhat is solitude?\u201d and wa» visibly disturbed when a miserable boy answered: \u201cTbe store that don't advertise.\u201d At Oakland, Col,, there has jdst been captured a newspaper thieving dog.Over one hundred papers were found behind a large oile ot rubbish, where the dog bad secreted them.Truly, advertisers are becoming bright or wo bave the authority of auTxcbaSge\u2019 that the papers In a certain part ot the country are \u2022\u2022 fairly sparkling with advertisements.\u201d Afire-eating resident at Bangor, Me., has challenged the reporter of a local paper foi Q uitting his name from a social paragraph, nd now has the satisfaction of seeing himself in print.\u201cWere you guarded in your conduct while in New York ?\u201d a»k» d a father of his son, who liml jut-t relumed fiom a vinit to that rity.\u2022\u2018Ye».-ir : part of tl.e time by two p linemen.\u201d Tombs of tbe CUlneMC T'xu-perors.These are the tombs of Üie Ming Emperors, one of the moet brilliant dynastiesof Chinese history.They lie in a circular valley which opens out from agn;atplaio,&ud ia surrounded by limestone peaks and granite domes, forming a barren an4- waste amphUheatre.The grandeur of its dimensions and the awful barrenness of its disol«Uon make It a fit resting p,Iacc|(i£c>r the imperial ddtd of tbe last native dvnaaty.At the foot ol the sqfround-ing heights thirteen gigantic iombs, encircled with gbeen tree*, are arranged Tfl a semicirdo.Five majestic portât», about eight hundred yards apart, form the éntranée to the tom os.From the portico giving entra Doe to the valley to the tomb of fhe first Emperor is more than a league, and the long avenue ia marked first by winged cokimus of white marble, and next by two rows of animals, carved in gigantic proportion.Of these there are, on either aide, two lions standing, two lions sitting ; one camel «tending, one kneeling ; one elephant stendieg, one kneeling ; one dragon steading, one xiUug, two horses standing p six warriors, courtiers, Ac.The lions ara\" fifteen feet; high, and the others cquAlly colossal, while each of the figures is catVed from a single block of granite.At tbe end of the avenue are tbe tombs witb groups of trees about them.Each tomb is really a teuiple in which white and pink marble, porphyry and carved teak-wood are combined, not indeed in good taste, but, what is rare in China, with lines of great purity and severity.One of the halls of opit-lation it was\u2014and not so very long ago^ customary for men, not precisely to sell their wives, but to transfer them for a money consideration to the keeping of other men as lo^r and as ignorant as themselves.The practice dated very probably from the remotest Saxon times, when punlsEmënt for every offence save treason and coining could be commuted by a fine ; and, although in modern times the parties mast have been aware that the act of sale was illégal, or, rather, a nullity in the eyes of the law, tbe passing of tfcje money was accepted in the light of a guarantee that the husband would take proceedings for adultery against his wife and the paramour to whom1 he banded her.Just the faintest phantom of his savage usage may be traced in the case of Robert Earle, a laborer, fifty-three years of age, who has been convicted before Mr.Baron Cleasby of aiding anid abetting bis wife, Mary Ann Earle, a woman of forty-two, in the commission of the crime of bigamy.In September, last year, Mts Earle went tbVough the form of marriage with one John Farrow, at the Registrarfs office in Norwich, and the prisoner was pro-sent on the occasion, and actually gave away his wife.Farrow almost immediately afterwards absconded.Mrs.Earle being apprehended on a charge of bigamy, got liberated on bail, and then, witb great alacrity, ran away to join, as it was conjectured, her second\u2014though spurious-\u2014husband, Farrow.There remained, then, left in the lurch, the wretched, spiritless, good-for-nothing, boor, Robert Earle, who has been sentenced to two months' imprisonment with hard labor.The exquisite scrupulosity of Mrs.Earle in pre-fen ing bigamy to rtmeubinage excites aa much admiration as the abject and craven meanness of Robert Earle excites contempt : but, wbat, may we ask, moved Farrow incontinently to 44 abscond V Has be, too, got another wife besides his \u201cbogus\u201d helpmate ?and as there been bigamy all round ?uê ^To see how eagerly a human being will catch a straw, it is not necessary to witness a drowning.The phenomenon is now manifest chiefly within saloons, where one end of tbe straw is immersed in a tumbler.The use of tobacco should certainly be taught in the public schools.It bas been proved so many times over and over again that it is not only not Injurious but positively healthy, that its use should not be neglected.The body of Patrick Lawler, a passenger of the schooner Memento, was picked up in St.John\u2019s, Nfid., harbour last week.The Memento left St.John\u2019s on the 19th of June last, bound to Rose Blanche for a cargo of fish.It Is supposed that she most bave struck cn Renews Rock that night and sank in deep water,witb all hands ou board\u2014seven in number.A novel kind rf types has been invented by a gentleman in California, U.8., for which English letters patent have been granted.The invention consists in a mould for casting type with a double body\u2014that is, making the portion of tbe body nearest the letter narrower than the remainder by cutting away one side.A notch is made at the lower end of this narrow portion, so tbit when the types are set up there will be a narrow channel loading down between each line of type, and by means of a small hook, which can be introduced and catch on to the notch, any particular type or part of a line can be easily withdrawn withont disturbing the remaining ones or marring the type withdrawn.A Brooklyn gentleman means, within the next few days, to put on exhibition wbat he claims to be the only genome specimen of man-fish ever caught.Private views of the monstrosity have already been given, and naturalists have theorised the legitimate amount upon it.It is four feet long, aqd weighs nearly fifty pounds It has a broad, toad-like head, full eyes, the semblance of a nose, broad mouth, and sharp, regular teeth.Below the neck are two arm-like fins, twenty-one inches long.From a well-shaped waist and ribs there project two fins that bear « somewhat close resemblance to attenuated human legs without joints.A round strong tail behind the legs completes the mermanfs personnel.Witb the exception of the semi-' tin», the tail is the only feature that gives him a valid claim to be classed among the finny tribe, for he has no scales nor anjy otte r resemblance to a fish.He was caught some two weeks ago at tbe fishing banks by a New York fisherman.After the enriosify of the general public has been satisfied, the naruntliids promise to give their explanation of the designs of Providence in constru< ting thii singular specimen of marine phenomena This is a good chance for a Darwin ot the dosp.Nay i UK» aud Doings.I » Ma.Be a vs Fu«aAi*r-The day Mr.Ruby across tho way, was to be barfed, Mrs l o! rmrty told her daughter Clarinda she guessed she would attend, as she wasn't feeling very well, and a ride would do her gcod.She knew there would be several covered carriages fnr-nished at the expense of the family, and she would occupy a portion of one of them She was among the first at the house, and occupied a prominent position.As the other friends arrived, she took occasion to recall reminiscences of the late Ruby that brought tears to their eyes; and when the sendees were over, as the first carriage drove up for ita load the distress of Mrs.Moriarty at the death of Mr.Ruby was so marked as to excite ihe liveliest sympathy.Then the second coach came up.Mrs.Moriarty bad got down to tho gate by this time, and as the door of the second coach w as opened, and a call made for the occupants, it seemea extremely doubtful if she could bold up another testant.She leaned against tbe post, and stared into the coach and over its rich upholstering, and said the late Ruby seemed more dike a mm to her than a neighbor.Whereupon the usher looked appropriately sad, and called up the third and last coach.This bad yellow cushions and pink straps, and Mrs.Moriarty didn\u2019t hesitate to protest that iu the death of Mr Ruby tbe community had met a loss It was not possible to recover from, and that sho would follow him to bis last resting-place if she had to do it on her knees, and would feel grateful for the opportunity.Then the third and last coach filled and drove off to take its place in the line, and Mrs.Moriarty dried her tears, choked back tbe sorrow of her heart with one mighty gulp, and strode into her own house, shutting the front door without the aid of the knob.She told Clarinda that it was the scaliest affair she ever went to, and bad it not been for tho body there would have been no funeral at all.\u2014Danbury Mews.Tho following dialogue occurred in the Faubourg tit.Honore, Parts, between a patriarchal gentleman «nd bis granddaughter \u2022 \u201c What makes your hair so white, grandpapa inquiry tho maiden.VI am very old, my ?-ar \u2019\t}* the say» grandpapa, homorouriy, bat with a reckless regard for truth, which does not prenoesess us ia the odd man's favor.\u201cOfal\u201d «ays the child, re-gardiug.her relative with a fresh interest \u201care yon Noah ?\" \u201cNo, I am not Noah \u201d \u201cAre yon Bbem, then ?\" \u201cNo, I am not Sbem.\u201d \u2022 Are yon Ha® ?\u201d \u201cNo, I am not even Ham \u201d \u201cThen you must be Japhet,\u201d says mademoiselle, at the end of her historical tether, and growing rather impatient of the difficulty that surrounded her aged relative\u2019s identification.\u201cNo, 1 am not Japhet/\u2019 \u201cThen, grandpapa, you\u2019re a beast !\u201d The Congregationaliet says : Tho late venerable and beloved Rev.Matthew Brown, D !>., was in tbe habit of saying that religion» interest and octicity could only be expected in Pittsburg when the water was out of the Pennsylvania Canal, and the Ohio River frozen over.¦'»\t1 \u2022\t: ;

finally escaping, he took up a stone to throw at bis pursuing persecutors, who would give him no peace, and just us be did so a policeman hove in sight, who arrested and conveyed him to the calaooose.He had to appear jn the Re-corder's Court yesterday, and had to stand the costs, while the blackguardly carter* went scot free.Sailor Killed.\u2014A sailor named Sinclair Manson, aged 46, a native of Scotland, of the ship \u201cNewfoundland,\u201d was admitted to the Marine Hospital some two weeks ago, and discharged as cured.He left and proceeded to Champlain street, where he got on the spree in the tavern of one Kennedy, and was picked up on the street one moruing last week, and Uken again to tbe Hospital.It was found that his skull was fractured.He died on Saturday last, having been insensible all the time from the time he was brought in.An inquest waa held yesterday, and * Verdict rendered.It i* tbe opinion of those who saw tbe state the man was in, that bis death was caused by violence of some person or persons unknown.UMiiry l.MMH.Mr.N.Capon, of New Hampshire, has addressed the following letter to the Hon.Mr.Burke, of the same State.This subject will soon have to be bandied by the people of this country, otherwise the ten and fourteen per cent, shark* will leave them nothing :\u2014 I have received numerous letters from distinguished gentlemen since tl^e publication of mine to Mr.Gillet, and It may be Intereating and useful to give extracts from a portion of them.The Hon.Charles O'Conor, the eminent jurist and statesman of New York says : \u201cI am decidedly of opinion that the interest chargeable for tbe use of money ought to be regulated aud limited, by law.But caqnot approve the practice of imposing for feitures for making contract* for more than the laws allow.Perhaps a penalty payable into the public treasury by the lender, as in other cases of offence against public law might be proper.\u201d The Hon.Samuel Nelson, of Cooperstown N.Y., the late distinguished Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States, says \u201c'fh® Usury {jaws l|avo \\jeen in (ofpe in this State, In some form, ever since its organisation, and I have participated, more or leas, in the execution of them, as a member ot the Judiciary of the State, or of the United Htatcs for nearly the last half century, and have never entertained but one opinion concerning them, and that in favor of their salutary and conservative influence in the business operations of society.\u201d The venerable peter Cooper of New York says: \u201cI agree with you fully as to the unmeasured importance of wise Usury Laws.The grasping avarice of mankind is always ready to taka improper advantages of the pe?cessities of tbe weak and unsuspecting part of tbe community.Ex-Gov.Wise, of Virginia, says : \"Usury has added tenfold disadvantages to tbe disasters of war iu the privation of capital aud labor.It has tied Anteus down to the earth, would not let him rise up after touching his mother, and Is now seliiiig his mother &ith from under him\u2014hopelessly prostrate.Write on aud on ; you have enabled me in thi* State to fight and conquer.\u201d The Hon.T.J.Randolph, of Virginia, the only surviving grandson of Thomas Jefferson, says: I have read and re-read your letter to Mr.Gillett with pleasure and instruction.I had always felt that the reasoning ofRentbanl and bis follower* had been founded on delusive analogy.\" Ex-Governor English of Connecticut, says: \u201cIt was my fortune to be a member of our General Assembly last year, when fhe subject 01 the repeal of thft U8i|ry l*iw'wus under consideration.A letter from the Treasurer of Massachusetts to the Treasurer of Connecticut stated, that the repeal in Massachusetts bad not raised the rate of interest.The effect of thi* statement was to influence many to vote for repeal.The operation here ha* been a disappointment to it* friends.I am clearly of opinion that onr people are now in favor of the re-establishment of a modified Usury law aud that one will be enacted by bar next Lpgislatüré.\u2019t The letter alluded to by Gov.English was signed by the Hon.State Treasurer and by tbe Commissioner of the Savings Banks of Massachusetts.It acknowledged the fact that the rate of interest in the savings banks was increased from six to seven per cent., but it* language was of a congratulatory char&c ter, conveying the idea that tbe experiment was a success, aud that the example was worthy to be followed.These officials employed the language of traders, not of statesmen.Docs a State Treasurer congratulate the people when he ha* occasion to increase the State Tax Y Is a Savings Bank Commissioner justified in encouraging high rates of Interest, that the depositors may be favored on the small sums which they deposit,\u2014 when such a system is the means of raising the prices of everything they eat and drink ?fn England, savings hanks ace not permitted to pay more than five per cent, pur annum dividend.High rates of interest, it was found by experience, were not consistent with safety.Gov.English is entitled to thanks and honor for bis prompt acknowledgment of error, Pi bis desire to »ee it (ffirrepted forthwith.The Hon.Henry C.Carey, of Philadelphia, has just delivered an able speech on this subject, iu the Constitutional Convention of Pennsylvania.It has been printed, and I en close a copy of it, and commend It a* worthy of your attention.Hon.Isaac Davis of Worcester, Mass., adopts the motto of \u201cLive and let live.\" He says : \" I have read with great interest your letter addressed to Hon.R.H.Gillett.You take the right view of the subject.Immediately upon repeal of tbe Usury Laws iu Massachusetts all (be sayings institutions of this city raisea the rate of interest from six to seven per cent, those out of the city to seven and a half and eight per cent., there was no limit too high for the greedy.The consequence has been disastrous to industrial pursuits.Our farming towns in the county, more than one quarter of them have diminished in population.\u201d I could add much more and give other quotations, but I bave said enough.It is indeed strange that so much is deemed necessary, when it is considered that the experience of the world, during all time, on this subject, bas been uniformly in favor of Usury Laws.Whenever aud wherever people have attempted to do without them, ruin to industry and legitimate commerce has been tbe consequence._l kntfeunf no exception, and ip the nature of >bings, jj c*nqct be otherwise.\t^ I remain, my dear sir, - Ever and faithfully Yonr servant and friend, Nahum Capbn.Hon.Edmund Burks, Newport.N.H.It is satisfactory to think that our lifera-leur» have not been remiss in their attentions towards tbe illustrious Historian.Mr.Park-man has met several of them.It was to him our fellow townsman, Mr.Le Moine, dedicated his last extrusive historical work, \u201c L'Album du Touriite,\" which has just received, lu the columns of the Atlantic Monthly Magazine, a flattering notice, (which we subjoin), from the editor, W.H.Howells, also a Boston litterateur of note :\u2014 \" \u2014 We are doing a favor to the summer tourist who visits the famous city of Quebec, in calling his attention to M.Le Moine\u2019* very agreeable guide to the many point* of interest in the place.The best preparation for a visit to Quebec is an acquaintance with Mr.Parkman\u2019g histories.The Pioneer* of France in the New World and the Jesuit* in North America, which will put the reader in exactly the right mood lor appreciating and enjoying that ancient centre ol a system utterly passed away ; but for that minuter local Knowledge which thn sojoqrner will desire, Mr.LeMoine\u2019s\tdu 7V>uri«/# is iudisuensalde.Hawkin\u2019* Picture of Quebec \u2014which wa* one of the best guide-books ever written\u2014is now quite out of print ; but its p.ace is fairly supplied by the work of Mr.LeMoine, which also has some advantages over the older gnlde in using the result* of the most recent historical inquiries, aqd iu coming from the pep of a Quebecer singularly qualified, by race, education, and predilection, to write of his native city.His name will readily recur to the reader of his Maple-Leaves;\u2014a succession of little sketches, in which the picturesque scenes and romantic episod* of the history of Quebec are treated with au antiquarian diligence and sincerity very happily united to the lightness of a sympathetic confeur.The same spirit characterises tfic Album du Touriste, which differs chiefly from the author's pleasant English sketches In being more systematised, and in covering more ground.It opens with an historical notice of Quebec, to which succeeded an account of the churches and the pictures and some interesting arcbirologi-cal studies of divers cqrious facta.Then unspe gossiping essay* on widely various topics, such as Nelson\u2019s sojourn in Quebec ; the place where Montcalm died ; the charming and storied neighbourhood of the city the different battle-fields ; the object* of interest and tfio nMunri wonder* fa reach of the excursionist, with fall and entertaining notes.Not to be 'wanting in anything, the book give* us some agreeable causeries on the local game, birds, fish, and beasts; and second part of the Album is devoted to the itinerary of a voyage from Quebec to Gaspe.Tbe style is lively, and the material 13 thqt of a tboroqgh Inquirer, whose historical nmdtès anq whose works, in French and English, on the fisheries and ornithology of Canada have made him an authority on tho points which he treats.Thu Album would be the better, however, for a more complete index.It is very gracetullyand, appropriately dedicated \"Au touriste, plme, qui chaque flpnutemps nous revient kvéc les hirondelle* \"au brillant et sympathique historien, qui a \"su entourer d\u2019une aureole notre vieux Que-\"bec.a Francis Parkman.\u201d up my formation.Thanking you Mr.Editor for affotding me the space to exhonorate myself from the charge of stating a falsehood or of \u201cwriting on a subject of which I knew nothing/\u2019 I remain Sir, Your very much obliged Servant.B.F.H.Quebec, 1st September, 1873.key steady at 1,03.Provisions quiet and nn-chunKed, nothing done except the Kale of 200,-OOU pounds of bellies packed at 85c Freights In fair demand;

distribution to subscribers may be expected to commence early the coming winter.To such as have not seen the prospecta*, or 1 ad an opportunity of ordering the work, It may be interesting to know that this will differ lu many Important respects from any of the publisher's previous maps of Canada.Owing to the vast extent of territory now composing the Dominion, tbe Atlas form has been adopted as being more convenient and In fact the only form by which tbe townships and counties can be shown on a scale saffl-clently large to be of practical ntlllty, while kept within a reasonable sise, and in «on-veulent form for reference.The pages will be about 14 x 18 laches In size, and the counties In Ontario and Quebec will be shown on the scale of six miles to an Inch, a county on a p*gn at tbe
