OF the daguerrcotype that glimpse had

OF the term, Miss Harriet announced
that she would not attend school any

not Are you going away? But she
shook her head. laughed, and kept her
own counsel, and in few weeks was

accompanied her husband once or

distinguished for exquisite coloring.-
Nothing could surpass .be chesnut

too much embonpoi't for Symmetry
but she moved with grace and dignity.
Althou h there was great disparity

,.alse IVORY Trade.

The New York journal of Com.
mcrcc has an article on "I'he Ivory
Trade" from which we quote:
Nine tcmihs Of all the ivory
brought directly to the United States
comes from Ialnbar, in Africa, to The
port ofSaIcm. 1t has been coniccturcd
that eventually the supply would be
stopped, on account Of the cxtin, ton
OF the elephant, but this, we arc in.
formed by those convcrs;nt with the
subject, is not probable, large ouanti
ties being brought from the unex.
piorcd interior of Africa by the traders
on the coasts, Of which II part is oh.
tanned from animals who have died
naturally; the elcphat being TOO large
game TO be seriously affected by the
weapons Of savagcs. The dealer can
readily discern by the appearance Of
the tooth whether it is taken from Il
freshly Slain animal or not. Some of
them, broken and muliIalcl, give
evidence Of deadly cncoun. crs their
proprictors have had in their native
.Iunslc,, while others arc gnawcd by
African rats probably, for the teeth
marks are large and deep incisions.
The English traders, owing to their
superior facilities, have The monopoly
of The markc: in India and in Africa,
and the choicest articles can only be
obtained from them.
IN price it varies from 75c. to sl.75
per pound nett, which are the extremes
for corresponding qualities. Within
i've years past, owing to its extended
appropriation 10 purposes of art and
luxury, it has increased twenty per
cent. in cost, and great economy is
requisite to work UP the scraps and
clippings to advantage, as its curved
form will not admit Of Strengthening,
without destroying the texture, which
would be fatal to its usefulness and
beauty. Nothing, however, is per.
mitlcd to go to waste. The refuse is
carefully calcincd, and, when carefully
ground upon marble slab, yields q

artists topaint Uncle Toms, broadcloth

a FACT FOR THE KNOW NoTHINes.--
The late census shows that the number
of Irishmen in the United States is less
than one million, and our Federal
State aud Municipal "Blue Books, =
we believe, will show that a majority
of the public Offices in the United
States. are filled by Irishmcn. Is il
strange that Americanism is waking
up?
