The Spiritual Register has recently pubs
lished some statistics. wherein the total nunibes
Of Spiritualsts in the United States is esiini,
ated at 1884 900, and the whole world at J..
100000. Maine is credited with 10000; New
Hampshire with 10000; Vermont %, 90 Mass
acAusetts 100000: Rhode Island $1,000 Con.

The Register gives the names Of $40 public
speakers, and 23s professional mediums. The
literature Of the profession comprises 500 book.
and pamphlets, six weeklies, three semi.week-
lies, and four monthlies. These figures are not,
probably, exaggerated. and that Splriiualism
prevails to an almost incredible extent in this
country is beyond all question. Among the
other rnonstresities which have grown ont Of
this superstition, is the spiritual wife system

Ruterpris,na IlxpIorer of Africn

EultlpflhtuB Explorer Of AIriCu.
Paul B. Du Chaillu, by birth Freuchman,
and by adoption an American, who, nearly four
years since went out to Africa, partly under the
patronage Of the Philadelphia National History
Society, but chiefly at his own charges has re-
turned to New York. The Tribune gives some
account of his travels in those equatorial re
gions of Africa which are upon no map, and are
without a name known to white men. He
went inland from point near the mouth Of the
Gaboon river, whence, in the course of three
years made five expeditions penetrating to
chain of mountains which preeluded further
progress, and traversing a distance OF several
thousand miles, through an unbrOken forest
wherein are no beasts of burden, only hostile
tribes of Africans who had never seen white
man, whose institutions are slavery, witchcraft
cannibalism savage beasts, venomous reptiles
and rich tropical vegetation - on foot or in
canoe.
This young man, slight in frame, not thirty
years old, made these journeys, one of them
keeping him fifteen months in the bush He
has shipped from time to time many natural
cuTiosities, aud brings home variety of curl
Gus manufactures, utensils, arms, musical in
struments and idols. The Africans, though
cannibals, are ingenious and intelligent have
fine beautiful grass cloths, pottery, which would
take if called Etruscan, knives aud spear heads
made of iron melted by themselves. He brings
home several specimens of the gigantic and fe
rocious monkey called the Troglodites Gorilla
and has settled all questions about him and OF
the Konlon Kamba, new species between tn,
Gorilla and Chimpanz en- Duehailu He ha.
written three letters which have been published
in the Tribune, and will furnish that journa
with further details

which the. Mayor presided Mr.. WortIey, Chair
man of the Atlantic Telegraph Company, ex.
pained the present position and future pros

resolved that this great international project is
worthy of the most general and generous sup
port. Subscriptions TO a number of shares
were taKen.
The Russian Government has begun the
construction of a telegraph line on a grand
scale 1t iS to run from Moscow right across
the North of Asia to the mouth ofthe Amor on
the Pacific Ocean. The whole length will ex-
coed 900 leagues.
A project has been drawn up for continuing
the line to the coast of America, which would
afford great facilities for laying the cable ia
connect the two Continents.

Importnnt FROM Jnnnn

The Rotterdam Courant Of July 10th has
letter from Japan, stating that in conseq quence
of a Misunderstanding with Consul General
Harris, the japanese Government now refuses
to send Commissioners to Washington to ex.
change the ratification Of it's treaty with the
United States. The N. Y. Times says the lets
ter from a reliable source, and It's facts not to
be disputed.
The trouble grows out of four American
merchantmen having landed at Kanagawa, near
Yedo, the Capital, for the purpose Of tlade, al
though that port according to the treaty, was
not to be opened before the 4th Of July, the
present year. The letter says:
Mr. Harris, the American Consul General al
5imoda, on receipt of this information left inn.
mediately for YedO with two American steam.
ers, then on avisit 70 Simoda, and instead Of
ordering those merchant vessels TO leave that
| port, as was his duty, hc applied TO the Coun-
oll OF State for permission TO allow those mer-
chant ships to trade in anticipation of the trea-
! Y-eYen strongly insisting upon compliance az
ter the request had been refused bv the Council
OF State. The Council, however, persisted in
It's refusal, and desired Mr. Harris 20 Immediate
y order those merchant ships away.
The Japanese Government felt much dis
pleased with this act Of the Consul General.
the more so, as be had promised that no Amer
] ieRR ship, not even a man-Of-war. should visit
the Bay Of YedO before the treaty goes into ef.

eminent has changed its mind IN regard to send
ing Commissioners to Washington TO exchanq,

Every Republican voter should attend these

Ward Meetings for the appointment Of Dele.
2 rates are to be held on Thursday, September

Under this arrangement, it would seem prop
o. that Chairman, Secretaries, and Tellers
should be appointed at the time named for The
o1ening Of the meetings, and then proceed to
vote for six Delegates, by ballot.
After the meetings are opened, persona can
utin their ballots, and not be under the ne
essIty Of staying after they Lave voted; and
persons coming at any time during the hour and
half can vote, without being detained This
Is a decided improvement on the old plan
Q living, as it does ample opportunity for all tC
get to the meetings, and the voting by ballot
ifording to every one the privilege Of voting
or just such delegates as they may see fit with
out giving offence to any one, as no one else
San know for what persons the vote is given.
The name Of each person voting should ht
written .own by the Secretaries, and none but
liepublicans should be allowed to vote at these
meetings. There may be Democrats who, irou
