The darkey delegate from Abys-
sinia is in luck. Next to his rela-

cent cause of the late war, and says

Over one hundred negroes have
been appointed to Office. The last

ANIMAL LIFE is full Of corruption and
we can only hope to escape the ills which
flesh is heir TO by q judiciOus use Of the
remedies in natures stOre-house. In all
the time which has past since The world
began, mankind has given great attention
and some of its best talent tn the study
of medicine. While this sacrifice has not
been wholly in vain, the facts elicited are
few and mostly unsatisfactory. Among
the truths which have been ELECTED Is
this, "that il we keep the blood pure we
must be healthy" To purify The blood

MIR. JAMES MAGUIRE,

AN UNPRECEDENTED REcoRD.- II Is an
nounced that in the hrst ten months after
its organization, the "National Life In
surance Company Of the United States Of
America" had issued no less than 5,395
policies, by which the public had insured
to the amount Of over fifteen millions
Such success is unparalleled in the
historoy of life insurance, end there must
be strong influences which have contri-
hutcd to this astonishing result. The
fact that the Company is national in it's
character has been q strong recommenda'
tiOn. twas chartered by Congress with
authority 10 transact business in any and
every part of the country, ann it has
acted upon this authority by seeking the
best inancisrs, and most active and
respective business men throughout the
States and in the Dominion Of Canada,
to act as general or sub-sgeDis. The
public having confidence in the honesty
and sagacity of these agents, have given
special attention to the character OF the
work which they represent: and have
found that the National Life presents
features certain to commend themselves
10 popular favor. And yet notwithstand-
ing all the many manifest advantages
offered il is matter worth special note
that in the first ten months Of its first
year this Company should have issued
insurance to an amount nearly double
that ever issued by and other company In
the world during the entire first year OF
It's existence, and exceeding by nearly
$5. 900 900 the amount insured by any
company previous to 1868, during ANY
full year of it's operations.
This Company has, by widespread and
systematic advertising, invited the full
est investigation into its plans and pur-
poses; how we'll it has borne the most
exacting inquiry is best shown by the
fact witw which this paragraph began
the issuing Of nearly $500 policies, COW
ering over $l5,0OO0OO insurance, in ten
months' time.
The local agents Of this Company
appear, by advertisement, in another
column, and 10 that we.refer our readers
for further information concerning IL.

SPEAKING OF FATHER HYAcISTHE Mrs
Richie, in q late London letter to the
Chronicle says:
His brow is superb, his nose and chin
finely cut, his mouth beautifully curved,
vet every feature bears the impress OF
power and intellect. When he babe
adieu to his friends he had discarded
the sandals, the black gown and the
white cloak of the monastlc order, and
was dressed iu d long overcoat of black
cloth, with white turn-down collar
aad round hat. But he had not lost,
through these changes, the general pc
turesqueness which characterized bis
appearance. Precisely what he means
to do no one seems to know. lie is
strongly urged by his warmest friends
not to abandon the Roman Church, and
there can be DO doubt that while he
can do a great deal inside the Roman
Catholic Church to make Catholicism
liberal, he could do very little, or moth
ing, to effect this out Of it. A distln-
ruished French Protestant, who had
heard one of his liberal sermons, re-
marked that coming from Roman pulpit
such doctrines made him doubt whether
be himself was Protestant, but they
also made him doubt whether Father
Hyacinthe was Catholic. The Arch
bishop of Paris was present when he
illuminated against the sins OF the
priesthood, aDd he uttered no protest.
All Paris was stirred by the great ora
tors startling pictures of vice and
future misery, and flocked to hear him !;
but Rome saw the hold he was gaining
over the hearts of the people and sealed
his lips.

INTERNAL REVENUE DECISIONS.

Following 10 o capital satire upon
those fair and conspicuous marks for
raillery, Internal Revenue Decisions.
We find it in an exchange vaguely
credited to "some wag and give it as
we find it:
"The latest decisions of the Commits
sioner of InHrnal Revenue cover the
following points: Parties using paper
collars must use them from their orig
inal package; that is, from the box in
which they have been purchased; and
a three cent revenue stamp must be
attached to each one when put on.
When the collar becomes soiled and is
turned with the clean side out, it must
receive another three cent stamp, and
must also be conspicuously stamped
with the word turned Boxes when
emptied cannot be used second time,
but must be destroyed in the room
where emptied and the Assessor fur
nisbed with a certificate of the fact II
thrown out of the window or carried
out in the coal-scuttle or wash tub, such
boxes will be subject to export duty.
Bootblacks are required to use their
blacking just as they fiud it when the
box is opened, adding nothing to it
whatever. The act of splitting in the
box and smearing the contents with a
brush constitutes the bootblack mixer,
or rectifer, or manufacturer of black
ing, and be must pay the ordinary man
facturer's license Each boot blacked, ,
for which the sum of FIVE cents is paid
by the wearer, must receive, at the ex
pense Of the bootblsck, four and three
quarter cent stamp"
