The Wool Trade.

Our exchanges in New York and Boston
note decided improvement in the wool
trade. In New York, the manufacturers
are feeling around, with the view of replen-
ishing their stocks, and the market conse-
quenty, says the Economist, has been more
active the past week, and prices are deci-
dedly firmer. The demand is chiefly from
Eastern manufacturers, and Philadelphians,
some Of whom are buying quite freely. The
inquiry is principally for Low and Medium
Domestic Fleeces, at 81 per fb,, and the
stock of these has become so much reduced,
that holders now demand ST. Us to 81 10 for
Wool in good condition, and many sellers
are not anxious to realize at the advance, in
anticipation of still higher rates ere the close
of the season, Nearly, if not all, the stay
lots in the hands of the outsiders have been
bought; SO that what trade is now doing is
FROM regular parties. The near approach
of the election will no doubt eurtail business
to some extent, but after the result is known,
lively times are anticipated, AS nearly all
the spectators are scared oil, business for
the balance Of the year will be with the reg
ular dealers, and good trade and good pli-
ces, as heretofore predicted, will le the re-
suit. Heavy ,woolen goods are selling more
freely, and the tone OF the wool and wooden
goods market is decidedly better. rs
In Boston, says the Bulletin, there is
mach better feeling for domestic wool, and a
much larger number of buyers have made
thclr appearance than for some weeks pre-
yious. The sales show considerable in

Captain Speke's Adventure with
q BOA Constructor.

Atthe earliest possible moment after our
camp had been pitched, hunt was set a.
doet and Captain Grant, myself and some
attendants were soon making our way to
the path. There were no animals there
when we arrived, except few hippopotami
and we were, therefore, obliged to. await the
coming of some more palatable game. Our
patience, however, was severly taxed; and
, after long, delay, we were about to bag"
0 hippopotamus, when one Of our atten
dants, perched in tree about half a mile
distant began waving his blanket. This was
a signal that game was approaching. We
Immediately drew into cover, and awaited
the coming OF the latter. .-'D5
We we're not delayed long for presently a

AN ExTRAoRp1NARY CASE. A soldier in
Sherman S army, with throat cut from ear
to ear, YVES thought to be mortally wound
ed by a council of surgeons; but the one un-
der whose immediate care he was thought
he was justified in making an experiment
for the good of others. at the same time
having great hopes of saving the man. He
first commenced his task by cutting through
where the two upper ribs meet the sternum,
and through this oriiice for forty days he
has been fed FIVE gallons of milk per week,
and sometimes his appetite required five per
day. He is fat and hearty and the surgeon
thinks in two weeks he will have him able,
and the inside of his throat so nearly healed
as to allow him to swallow by the natural
passage. He at first introduced stomach
pump, and thus fed his patient, and after a
few hours would clear his stomach in the
same manner, thus producing artificial di-
gestien, till it was no longer necessary. A
silver tube is now used to feed him.

A Negro Runs Away with the
Wife of a White EIan.

Several days since, gentleman arrived in
this city from Alliance, Ohio, in quest OF
his wife and little girl about five years Of
age, who, he thought, had eopcd with a
oolored man named Henry Sucke S. Sew
of our most expet fenced detectives were in
formed Of the affair, and at once ct about
ferreting out the woman refened to. Not
withstanding tn fact that they worked dill
gently, they could not for time discover
the least clue to the whereabol is Of the flu
gitiN es, and the unhappy hui band was; bout
to give up the chase in despair. So far as
his wife was concerned, he cared but little,
since she had left him to take up one cf a
different color, and had cohabited with the
guilty invader of his domestic happiness. -
His chief object was to secure the bright
eyed little girl.
The latter fact alone gave him additional
strength and he resolved to push his search
further. He called upon officer Port of
Windsor, who undertook to do the best he
could. His efforts proved successful, and on
Friday he found the woman and her dusky
paramour at a negro boarding house at
Windsor. The husband upon being inform
ed of the facts, accompanied the officer to
the house referred to, and there beheld his
worse than guilty wife in rather mixed COM
pany. She claimed his forgiveness, but of
course was refused. The fsth,r took his
child, but the mother entreaiies to take
her home worked so hard upon his wound
ed feelings, that he offered to take her home
TO her parents provided she would remain
there This she promised, and on Friday
night they all started to Ohio together.
Suckers, as soon as he learned of the sue
cessful pursuit of the husband, made haste
to get out of the way, which alone saved
his life The outraged husband, had he
got hold of him, would have shct him on
the spot. Suckers did not care to risk his
worthless life in the encounter, and thus
prevented the enactment Of tragedy. u.

The Horrors of the Draft-Sepa-
ration Of Husband and Wife.

Some affecting scenes in connection with
the draft occur in our streets every day,
but yesterday the parting between hus-
band and wife was the most affecting and
hea t-rcnding exhibition we have yet wit
messed. She was delicate woman, seem
ingly not long for this world, md as the
thought OF parting from her husband, per-
haps never more to meet on earth, flashed
across her mind, she gave way the most
Departing and agonizing bursts of grief
And yet there were some in the adjoining
crowd, who we've very eloquent about the
evils Of slavery in separating fam lies, who
stood by and laughed at the scene. Such
creatures are not human--they are worse
than brltes even--fends whom it would be
a vile libel ON the human race 10 eall men,
AS the poor heart broken women hung
with passionate and fearful agony to her
husband, perhaps her sole support, we could
not help feeling in our inmost heart the
wickedness Of the policy that has rendered
this thing necessary. Those who are veal
thy enough to escape the burdens which
this harsh and infamous law imposes upon
the poor may laugh now, but they may see
the day when tho laugh will come out of the
other side of their mouths. There is a God
in Heaven, and his vengeance will not slum-
ber forever,

Red Kgair the Fashion.

The Paris correspondent of London pa
per says that now red-haired ladies alone are
admired in that city of ia, hiou, and that all
the ladies are coloring their hair to doubt
full golden" hue. The writer remarks:
think may say a few words about this
singular practice of doing something, | pre-
sume, chemical to the human hair which
tulns certain dear ladies of natural and var
led complexions into a series of uniform
blondes, approaching what Yorkshire man
would call "a rcd haired lass. Poets and
painters, we know, prefer this color. Shake
speare, Dante. TaSso and Goethe, and all
the old Italian and Spanish painters, go in
for reddish lair hair, All the people Of the
sunny South like that color by instinct -
But until the present day, lovely women gen
orally contented themselves with the tint ma
ture bestowed We have all read about the
period of patches and powder, and we have
seen the hair in drawings at different epochs
Of civilized history turned into every con-
ceiyable conceit from the cIassicaily beauti-
full, when the ringlets were at the back Of
the haad, to later days, when they hung in
corkscrew lu1uriance about the ears. At
what period in he world S history did la
dy whose hair was naturally brown or black,
deliberately 90 to the hair artist and request
that co51eur to turn It into light red?--
That is what some ladies of Paris are now
doing It is the fashion. Yet more won
dertul things still are done to make ladies
beautiful Masses of hair, ever augment
ing in size, are stuck where natures hand
work ends. These bosses commenced with
us modestly enough; they are now about the
circumference of sonp plate, As much as
one hundred francs is paid for one of these
hairy deceptions, which are generally impri-
soncd in network, occasionally studded with
diamonds, and often half-circled with a
broad golden comb. Do you think inven-
ton ends here? Not bit Of it. The front
hair is a curious nest o! floral and other con-
ceits, reminding us of on old poet lines:
Her hair was rolled in many curious fret,
Much like rich and curious coronet;
Upon whose arches twenty cupids lay.
