THE ISLE OF BoNEs.-In the interes.

in the chapter devoted to the post plio-
Gene period occurs the following remark
able statement: New Siberia and Isle of
Lachoh are for the most part only an ag-

plants teeth. At every tempest the sea
casts ashore new quantities of mamonths'
tusks, aud the inhabitants of Siberia car
ry on profitable commerce in the fossil
ivory Every year during the summer
innumerablc fshermen's barks direct
their course towards this isle Of bones, aud,
during winter, immense caravans take the
same route, all tho conveys drawn by dogs,
returning charged with the tusks of the
mammoth, weighing each from $50 to
200 pounds. The fossil ivory thus with
drawn from the frozen north is imported
into China and Europe, where it is en-
ployed for the same purposes as ordinary
ivory, which is furnished, as we know, by
the elephant and hippopotamus of Africa
and Asia. The Isle of Bones has served
as quarry of this valuable material for
export to China for five hundred years,
and it has been exported to Europe for
upwards of hundred years. But the
supply from these strange mines remains
undiminished. What number of accu-
mulated generations of these bones and
tusks does not this profusion imply !!

To YOUNG MEN.-Don't rely upon
friends. Don't rely upon the name OF
your ancestors. Thousands hayespoilt the
prime of life in the vain hope Of those
whom they called friends; and thousands
have starved because they had rich
father. Rely upon good name which
is made by your own exertions; and know
that better than the best friend you can
have is unquestionable determination,
united with decision of chracter.

Monthly Subscriptions to the New York
Herald.


We give notice to the public that hereafter
monthly subscriptions will be received for the
NEW YORK HERALD. The subscription will be
one dollar month. Many complaints have
been made from purchasers of the HERALD
outside of New York that the price charged
by newspaper dealers and venders is too high,
varying from five to twenty-five cents copy,
according to distance from the city. AT even
short distance ten cents copy is charged.
In fact there is no rule Of charges by news
men, who, taking advantage of the eager
demand for the HERALD, ask all sorts Of
prices for it. To remedy this evil and to
accommodate the public, therefore, the price
will be one dollar a month--about the same
for country subscribers, at whatever distance,
as for those in the city. The postage being
only thirty-fve cents a quarter, the cost con-
sequently to monthly subscribers in the country
will be little more than four cents copy,
which is the retail price in New York city.
Monthly subscriptions will be received from
this date

foreshadowing Of . general line of action on
his part looking to something broader and
higher in his execution Of the duties Of the
Mayor than the mere signing Of the bills and

Mayors message. Let him take his time, but
let him remember that we consent to this delay
only because we expect q message that will
bear good fruit

Libels and Libel suiss.

A Chicago paper some time ago published
report of q police case in which situation
.aagrants delicto was alleged against certain
parties. The latter brought suit for libel, and
the case has just been brought to close in y
verdict of seven thousand five hundred dollars
damages against the defendants. The editors
and proprietors OF the paper showed that the
publication was made against their express
directions; that it appeared through the negli-
gence of the reporter and foreman of the office,
and that every retraction possible was made
after its publication. These pleas ought to
have had some effect upon jury, and no
doubt they would had the paper in question
reporting the trial. 1t was there motive was
shown, If not in the original publication. But
the whole thing shows that the law Of libel Is
wrong in many particulars. In some cases it
is too stringent, in others too lenient. The
proprietor Of newspaper should not in justice
and equity be held responsible for every line
thatappears in his paper. He has to trust to
the vigilance and fidelity Of subordinates; and
where it is clear no malice is shown, and, in
fact, where it is proven that an alleged libel
lous report has appeared against his express
orders, it certainly seems that common sense
should exonerate him from blame. The Chi
cago case, we see, is to be carried to higher
court, and we suggest that the proprietors of
the paper allow it to be tested upon its merits
alone, without bringing extraneous influences
to bear one way or the other, right or wrong,
upon the judgment of the jury.
While on the subject of libels and libel suits
we may state that we understand a dozen or
more suits have been brought against those
Bohemians who have recently been busiiy
engaged in this city in calumniating the char
acter Of some of our most worthy grocers and
dealers. The developments on these trials
will be curious and interesting And, further
more, we understand that Hon. Reuben e.
Fenton, late Governor of this State, will bring
suit against Thurlow Weed for the publica-
ton in his paper in this city of one Of the most
atrocious libes that the soured brain Of dis
appointed lobby manager ever conceived. The
disclosures IN this case when brought to trial
will be highly refreshing, and no doubt illu-
inmate the entire tricks, lies. intrignes, back
bitings, double dealings and the myriads of
other rascalities which have won for the
Albany lobby an unenviable notoriety all over
the country.
