Thar NEW KNK.-We noticed sometime ago
the wonderful discovery by Mr.. Thomas
Hodgins, of process of taking the kinks out Of
the hair of African niggcrs, and other niggers
who have African blood in their veins and Afri-
can twists in their hair. Hodgins delivered a
lecture short time ago, explaining the pro-
cess. The following is from the ". Y Times:
"Mr. Hodgins looked at the contents of the
tin-pan-the tin-pan having been over the gas
Jet all this time-and finding that it had warmed
up considerably, took it off and straightway pro.
posed to commence the unkinking process il
any lady would come up. But the ladies were
bashfulin the presence of SO large an audience,
and there was danger that the Great African
Unkinker in the tin-pan would get chilled be-
fore subject could be found. Finally male
subject was induced to go forward, who agreed
to let him experiment upon fifty strands. Mr..
Hodgins went at him, and before the females
had finished their second giGgle, that which in
Its natural state did not appear to be more than
two inches long, was shown to the audience
straight as a looms leg-as glossy as i. beavers
back, after splurge, and near twelve inches in
length. There was certainly great improve
ment, but the ladies insisted that there was q
little wool and little kirk there yet, remark
which caused cOlored gentleman to express
the opinion that there was no satisfying some
people.

DIED RETURNING FROM BALL.-Miss Laura +.
Strntton, second daughter of Mr.. Robert STRAIT
ton, No. 800 North Eutaw street, near Hoffman,
died suddenly yesterday morning, under the fol-
lowing distressing and terrible circumstances
Miss Stratton, who was most estImable young
lady of 10 years, had attended the ball Of the
Independent Grays, ut the Maryland Institute,
in company with several companions. After
ENJOYING the occasion until between and o.
clock she left the scene with her companions to
return to her home. At the corner Of Baltimore
and Liberty streets she said she felt strange and
unwell, but walked on until the corner Of How
ard and Monument streets was reached, when
her illness greatly increased. attended with q
gurgling in the throat and sense of suif0ea-
! ton She was laid upon the steps of a
dwelling, supported in the arms Of herklady
companion, while her male escort fastened to
the nearest physicians Office. When he re-
turned with DIR. McSheTTy, it was found that
Miss Stratton was corpse in the arms Of her
friend. Her only exclamation was, "Lord, have
mercy ON me-" The body was taken to the
apothecary store of DIR. j. K b. Emory, south
cast corner of Howard and Madison streets, and
everything that could promote resuscitntion was
applied in vain. messenger was dispatched
TO the dwelling Of her parents in advance OF the
body, and this announcement OF her sudden de-
cease fell like thunderbOt on the hearts of the
household, who were now momentaTily expect
| ing her return from the happy scene she had
helped to grace and enlivcn. II is supposed hct
death was caused by disease OF the heart, to
which she was thought TO be subject. -Batti-
