From NJ du Chlllu's Explorations and Adventures"
1t happened that Niogoni, a good friend of
NV own. was elected. The choice fell on him
in part because he came OF good family, but
chiefly because he was favorte of the people
and could get the most votes. do not know
that Niogoni had the slightest suspicion OF his
elevation. AT any rate, il he had, he slammed
ignorance very we'll AS he was walking on
the shore. on The morning Of the seventh day,
he was suddenly set upon by the entire popu
lace, who proceeded TO a ceremony which is
preliminary to the GROWING, and winch must
deter any but the most ambitious men from
aspiring to the crown. They surrounded nm
in a. dense crowd, and then began to heap upon
him every manner Of abuse that the worst of
mobs could imagine Some spat in his face;
some beat him with their fists some kicked
him. others threw disgusting objects at him
while those unlucky ones who stood on the
outside, and could reach the poor fellow only
with their voices, assiduously cursed him, his
father, his mother, his sisters and brothers,
and all his ancestors to thesremotest genera.
ton. stranger would not have given a cent
for the life of him who was presently to be
crowned. Amid all the noise and struggle,
caught the words which explained all this to
me- for every few minutes some fellow,
administering an especially severe blow or
kick, would shout out, you are not our king
vet; for little while we will do what we
please with you. Byandby we shall have to
do your will"
Niogoni bore himself like man, and pro-
spective king. He kept his temper, and took
all the abuse with smiling face, When 1t
had lasted about half an hour, they took him
to the house of the old king. Here he was
seated and became again for little while the
victim of his peoples curses. Then all be-
came silent; and the elders of the people rose
and said, soemnly 1.-THE people repeating after
them) "Now we choose you for our king we
engage TO listen to you and to obey You"
silence followed, and presently the SILK hat,
which is the emblem of Mpongwe's royalty,
was brought in and placed on NjogOnl's head
He was then dressed in a red gown, and re
ceived the greatest marks of respect from al
who had now just now abused him. Now fol
lowed SIX days festival, during which the
poor king, who had taken with the Office alst
the name OF his predecessor, was obliged Il
receive his subjects in his own house, and wa
not allowed to stir ont; six days of indescrib
able gorging of food and bad rum-of beastl,
drunkenness and uproarious festivity. Mum
bers OF strangers came in from surrounding
villages to pay their respects and all brough

The Tidtn Tribune says that the Hon. Cooper X.
Watson, of that city returned from Washington On
Monday, after an absence of several weeks, and
was warmly greeted by his friends. He was wit
ness of the stirring events that have transprcd at
the Federal Capital, and during the darkest hour
when mob law ruled Baltimore and communication
was temporarily cut Oft he enlisted and served as
a "high private " in Gen. Lanes company, which
guarded the White House. AT Marnsbmg, Va,
on his return, Col. Watson barely escaped seizure
and detention by the rebels who marked him as a
suspected spy. One ruflian assailcd him, and
threatened to take him off the train and conduct him
back to Harpers Ferry, but friendly interposition
prevented it. Had he been taken back, Cooper "
thinks he would now have been dangling from a
tree. He says the troops in and about Harper's
Ferry the dirtiest meanest and raggedcst spec
linens of humanity he ever saw, They have no
uniforms, are armed with all kinds of mscellane-
weapons, and have little or nothing to eat ex-
cept as they steal it in the country around. The
Tribune says it is a treat to hear Cooper" relate
his experience.

There is an advertisement in this number Of our pa
per to which we wish to rail- your special attention.
We do so, not because are paid for doing it--toI
the proprietor has not so much as requested us II
do sobut from the fact that sincerely believe il
deeply interests you and your children to know what
is there communicated. We refer to thirty years
experience of female physician in the shape OF
.Wnslows Soothing syrup for children teething.
Tens Of thousands of children die yearly during
the process of CUTTING teeth; and hundreds o!
thousands barely escape death, to PASS life OF
suffering, diseased in body and enfccbcd in mind
all of which results from disorganzation Of tic
system during the process of teething. Mrs Win
slow in her profession, had an opportunity to wit
ness much of this suffering and has prepared q
medicine to meet the case-simplc, vet perfectly ct'
fective and sure. JUST THE REMEDY NEEDED.
WE KNOW tacts like magic, giving almost instant
relief to the little sutercr-having Witnessed the
most pleasing results from the use Of it in great
number of eases. No discovery in medicine fol
the last hundred years will compare with it in It's
benefits to the race, in opinion and the naml
of one female physician, at least, will be immortal
Ted by this medicine. 6wi

We find in our exchanges notices of the appear
ance of the army worm in various places through
out the South and West. They make their appear
ance in our country, not periodically, as the ocusts
arc said to do, but in immense numbers at no regu-
lar period, destroying first the grass, then The blades
of the smaller grain and corn commencing at the
ends of the blades and eating down to the stalk
They similar in appearance to the catepillar,of
a grcenish gray color, and exist a month or six
weeks, passing over, probably, twenty miles dis
tance during that time, and are as destructive as
the locust Their progress is stopped by poughing
a deep concave furrow in their course into which
they march but are not able to pass. When the
furrow is filled, anothers made, burying the worms
already captured.
