The Future of the Negro Race.—
Du Chaillu, the African traveller,
in one of his lectures, says :
“ I believe firmly in the extinc-
tion of the races of men, with the
exception of the progressive Cau-
casian race. I not only believe in
that distinction, but I see it. We
all see it. Hence the Hottentot
Bushman, being the lowest type of
the negro, will disappear first.”
In reference to the cause of this
disappearance, he says :
“ I am amazed when I hear men
asserting that the white man is the
cause of the extinction of the abo-
rigines, wherever he comes in con-
many times before, I mourn not ;
for in this order of things I see a
wise law of Providence—a law by

we may believe he had never loved
any one, but gave all his affection
to those ideal characters that he
could represent so finely on the
stage. One day as he was walking
leisurely along the streets of Paris,
he came upon a cobbler’s stall, and
his eye was attracted by a dainty
little shoe which lay there waiting
for repairs. His imagination be-
gan immediatly to form the little
foot that must fit such a little shoe.
'He examined it well, but only to ad-
mire it more and more.
On going to his house he seemed
haunted by the little shoe. He fan
cied it tripping over his floors ; he
could hear the music of its tread—
in fact, there was nothing among
‘all his rich, elegant treasures that
‘seemed half so beautiful.
He went to the stall of the cob-
bler again, but could learn nothing
more in regard to the owner of the
shoe. This only increased his eag-
erness, and made him more determ
ined to know to whom it belonged.
Day by day he was disappointed,
but he was not discouraged.
At last the little foot needed the
little shoe, and Thevenard met the
owner, a poor little girl whose par-

It is no longer a secret of the
chemist’s laboratory that clear, gol-
den syrups can be made from
starch and sulphuric acid ; that de-
licious wines and brandies can be
made from beet root, with others
for flavor ; that a barrel of peanuts
can be transformed into excellent
coffee ; that lard can absorb an
enormous quantity of water in cer
tain conditions ; that, it^’act, there
seems no limit to the adulterations
that an intelligent and dishonest
chemist can practice upon his fel-
low-men. All these marvels of
chemical science have in these
latter days become degraded into
mere tricks of trade, and their chief
beauty is in their capacity to en-
able unscrupulous dealers to light
en the pockets and destroy the
stomachs of the confiding and con-
suming public. Concerning the
article of champagne, a writer tells
us that it is made from a thousand
different su stances—even refined
petroleum. Yes, from the fiery ben-
zoles' a sparkling, bubling cham
pagne can be produced, which will
delight the eye, tickle the palate,
gladden the heart momentarily—
but quicken our paces toward the
graveyard. This is a new use for
petroleum, which those who have
been experimenting with it as an
agency for generating steam have
little dreamed of
Who can say that the Pennsylva-
nia oil territory, now considered
mostly worthless, may not some
day be regenerated into the great-
est champagne-producing country
in the world.

sheep ever seen in America, it is
claimed, was sent by Mr. John

The sheep was of the Leicester

weighed alive 458 pounds, dressed
358 pounds, and $100 paid for the
carcass, the hind quarters to be
sold at 50 cents a pound, and the
