nnoned Alessandro Gavazzi to assist in the care of
the military hospitals in Italy. These two dis

tions. They were together on the walls of Rome

BEER VS.. WNE.-An American now travelling in
Germany writes as follows to western paper:
In Southern Germany, where wine is not at all
uear, beer has almost entirely supplanted it in
popular favor, and in Switzerland It is rapidly
doing 30. The d&nand for beer is not easily met
e Even IN bavara Where it is made in altogether
the price at the breweries is two cents glass,
while at railway stations, and indeed in almost ali
pupnS P.aces, IL is three cents glass In North
Prussia the Bavarian beer is in such repute as to
command six cents the glass, and to sell freely at
quart bottle costing more than a franc The de-
mand is rapidly increasing, and while the vine
yards are good scource of income, the breweries

1T fact that in all the countries with which t
nave any acquaintance, there is tho came rapid
increase IN the demand for beer, which we have
witnessed during the past few years in America
Before 1t wine seems to stand no chance; almost
every one prefers the slight bitterness, the
imagined nourishment and real STRENGTH OF the
Bayarian beer to the thinness and sourness of the
native wines OF this country.

DINNERS AT THE TULERIEs.-For some time past
(writes Paris correspondent) there have fre-
auently been seen at the imperial dinner table at
the Tuileries high provincial functionaries, such
as projects, presidents Of courts of law, procu-
reurs-general, &c. This is custom recently in
inuEuEsted by their Majesties,, who desire to know
oiais OF the departments. Thus, as soon as one
OF them arrives in Paris. as he ordinarily goes
hce is Immediately given to the Emperor, VINO
soon invites the parsonage to dine at the Tuleries
At the table the latter is usually placed by the
side OF the Empress, and presented to the Prince
Imperial, who, since the return from Oompiegne,
has always dined with their Msjesties. The EN-

CHAMPAGNE STATISTICS. Statistics recently pub
lished show that thirty million of bottles Of cham
pagne are annually produced in France, and are
Portugal, 100000; Italy. 4OO,O 900; Belgium, $780,
'UUU; Holland, 5UU,OUO; Germany, 1,600,00 Rus
sia, 1900 600; France 500 00O England, O00 900;
India, 5,O00,00O; North America, 10, 000, ,0O0 This
calculation leaves 100000 bottles unaccounted
for, and takes note Of the billions Of inferior
wines which foisted the unwary as veritable
champagne.
The English are fond of abusing the people Of
Che United States for not preserving the Indian
stribes from becoming extinct before the advance
of our civilization. But the same thing is taking
place in New Zealand. The natives are fast dis
appearing. DR.. Featherstone says that twenty
years ago their numbers were estimated at one
hundred thousand; now they do not number forty
thousand souls and in twenty years they will be
reduced to mere handful. It is not that their
longevity is abridged, but that from some unde-
fined cause, whenever placed side by eide with
Europeans, "the hearths Of the natives, like the
wigwams of the American Indane, retreat or dis
appear before the torrent OF immigration"
M. Gaillard has just brought to the notice OF
the French Academy method by which all dan
ger from lucifer matches is obviated. It consists
in simply dipping matches into eulphur. after
having plunged them into phosphorous; !; the sui
phur being insoluble in water. prevents the phos-
phorus from dissolving in alimentary liquid mat
Ter so that all danger Of poison is avoided while
the moro powerful friction necessary to cause
combustion will be the surest guarantee against
fire.
