ROYAL Havana Lottery.

The ROYAL HAVANA LOTTERY of Cuba is conduct

Arciic EXnInraiinns-

A Washington special Of the 7th says:
The question OF sending another expedi-
ton into the Arctic regions has taken a new
and unexpected turn. Captain Hall has
been here two months explaining his views
and plans. He asks nothing for himself
but wants the government to furnish q yes
sci and pay the men who will 90 with Kim,
and has made arrangements with the Coast
Survey and Smithsonian Institute to take
two or three scientific gentlemen. His
seven years experience IN the Arctic re-
gions and the success which has attended
his labors, put him in the front rank ofe ex-
plorers, and point him out as the man TO
take charge of an expedition, if one Is sent.
The Senate Foreign Relations Committee
fully considered the matter. and agreed
unanimously to the passage of the bill in-
troduced by Dir. Sherman. The House Ap-
preparation Committee had also considered
it formally and favorably. At this moment
DIR. Hayes drops down here and proposesto to
avail himself of what Captain Hall has
done. He asked hearing before the SEN
ate committee to-day. ana, of course, got
it. He made speech, in which he set up
that he was the original Jacobs of Arctic
and that he, and not Captain
Hall, ought to be put in command of the
expedition. He has had three
years experience in that kind of work. He
has begged the appropriation committee to
hear him, and Monday next is set as the
time. How things viii come out no one
can guess, but there is good deal Of COM
ment on the manner in which DR. Hayes
has thrust himself into the matter.

The Erasnre of Inks

One OF our mercantile exchanges refers
to the nervousness which is felt by the
business public relative to the alteration OF
checks and drafts by the erasure of inks
1t observes:
1t has been demonstrated by actual ex-
pertinent that even the blue inks (which
have been thought proof against any chem
lcal that would not stain paper) can be re-
moved, leaving not the slightest stain upon
the paper, and we have been made ac.
qualnted with some facts which go to prove
that any writing Ink, Of any color, and OF
any composition, can be removed by the
proper chemical application, and still leave
no stain upon the paper. In view of this,
banks In some parts of the country have ex-
perlmented with paper (for drafts, the
writing surface of which had been brought
to uniform tint by being printed with a
network of fine lines, and these lines
printed IN soluble ink, which, it was sup
posed, would show the effects Of any appli-
cation OF chemicals TO the letter written
over it. But, as has been proved in the
case of the blue ink and the black. there
are chemicals that will entirely remove the
one and leave the lines of the other. which
may have intersected it, untouched. The
paper thus tinted has, the1 efore, been proved
to be no safeguard against alteration. The
American Bank-note Company, in view OF
these facts, endeavored to get prepared
paper which, by its chemical propensities.
should render all ink marks placed upon it
lndehble, and for time supposed they
had succeeded; but it was found that the
application of the proper chemical agents
would remove the ink from even this pa
per, and still leave no stain. Some expert
ments have also been made with the paper
rendered sensitive to any chemical appIica-
tion, so that it would show the mark of
having been tampered with. We have,
however, not much faith in this, because il
the paper is rendered so sensitive for or
dinary use, and as almost anything We
touch and use is TO some extent a chemical
agent, such paper would be continually
giving false alarms. People would be
reluctant to purchase drafts made on such
paper for fear it should. in the course OF
transmission by mail or otherwise come in
accidental contact with some chemical
agent that would leave mark, and cause
refusal of its payment We believe that
simple means of protection against altered
drafts and checks will be found as effective
as any. No method has been discovered
for applying the chemical in anyother than
the liquid form, and this invariably leaves
upon the surface of highly finished paper
a dim dark, the same as is made by pure
water By holding the paper so that the
light falls obliquely upon 1t, and comes oh
liquely to the eye, it may always be discoy-
cred whether any liquid application has
been made to the spot where the amount of
money in a draft is written.

him, the food he ate. everything was
charged for, but most cheerfully paid.
1t is, however, great pleasure to relate
that, after the bill was paid, the Indians
threw III the execution of the murderer In
the bargain. The avengers of blood found
him in his lodge, comfortably awaiting the
death of Black by starvation or cold,
either of which he, no doubt, thought
would save him all trouble. He seemed
rather to exult when chars with shoot
ing the white man; but the Bella Coola
warriors took different view of matters,
and with summary justice, which would
have done credit TO California vigilance
committee, they shot him where he sas.
As for poor Black, saw him dancing at
Christmas party not very long ago; but
terrible limp, which caused his partner to
afterwards style him an awkward sort of
colonial fellow" told me another tale.

JehiaI Slabs Advice Concerning How
to Act in Case Of FIRE.

1st. If it is night, and you in bed, a mile
or two away, jump out sprily at the first
alarm, grab pants with one hand, boots
with the other, and run, and tell every one
you meet to run too.
I'd. If the alarm bell keeps ringing, you
keep running.
Sd. If the fire begins to redden up well,
and engines 60 laundering by, women
SCREEN, men yell, pigs squeal, dogs bark,
and little bare-headed BOYS, with dirty
white handkerchiefs hanging out little
a-stern, mix in, run the harder-run like
the d-ickins.
4th. If you get out of breath. as you un-
doubtedly will, sit down or lie down, as
happens to suit YOU best, and consider for
five or SIX minutes what a right smart
chance of fool material appears in man
when he gets it all heaped together.
9th. Put on your pants and boots, if you
haven't thought of il before. Then con-
clude that the next best thing you can do
for the fire, seeing you are not fireman, is
to let 'er burn.
IF YOU HAPPEN To BE CLOSE By.
1st. Select the best position you can get,
ad then stand and cape at the fire till it
gts well under way.
I'd. Rush up to the foreman of one of
the fire companies The has the biggest
hoip OF any one in the company, and
makes noise like mad bull in q siaught-
er yard, take him by pinch of his red
shirt sleeve, lead him to one side and ask
in confidential tone.if he don't think he
can stop it by throwing handful of salt
in the stove.
Sd. He will shake you off indignantly -
perhaps swear a ittle-maybe knock you
down. Submit heroically, and then 60 up
to the upper story of the adjoining house
and pitch all the chamber crockery you can
find out on the heads of the multitude be-
low.
4th. If you can get hold of two or three
babies up there, save their precious little
lives from the fiery element by sending them
along too.
5th. After the last baby has been gone
about half minute, stick your head out of
the window aud tell the people below to
look out.
9th. As soon as the fire begins to 90
down, run to the hen coop in the back
yard as quick as possible, get good fat
pullet under each arm, then hunt up the
owner of the property and ask where you
can pat theIn
7th. After the fire is all out, present
yourself again to the proprietor, all be-
grimed with dirt and smoke and conpratu-
late him on your daring effoas to extin-
guish his property, and ask him if he won't
take you out and treat himself to glass eff
beer and few pretzels NIT you.

The Lady Jurors Saying Their Prayers.
From the Laramie Sentinel

A little circumstance connected with the
late term of Court cones to our knowledge,
which we are inclined 10 make public, even
at the risk of betraying confidence. During
the long and tedious Howie murder trial,
the jury (of whom one-half were ladies)
were not permitted to separate and go to
their homes, but were, under the charge of
bailifs Zone lady and one gentleman), taken
to the hotel for their meals. and Lodging
was provided for them in the adjoining
parlors, each under the charge Of their
bailiff And here, every morning during
the trial. upon arising from their beds,
these ladies kneeled together, and, like the
child Solomon, asked wisdom of God to
enable them to properly and wisely dis
charge their new and arduous duties. While
their male associates were engaged in
boisterous mirth and trifiing levity, they,
with the full consciousness of the responsi-
bility resting upon them, were seeking aid
at the throne of the All-wise.

Bore witness to thy cruel wrong;

With w0ful look and weary hands,
And back all SCARED with scars and blood,
A proud enfranchised sovereign stands
Where heavy lash and CALLING chain
Henceforth shall hiss and clank in vatnl
Sweet spirit of the olden time,
When honor, wealth and battle-blade,
With devotion all sublime,
Against oppression's curse were weighed,
Give welcome to the march of Truth,
With laurels Ger her pathway cast:
The prize that nerved the nations youth
Securely in her hands at lastl
Her heralds shouting to the morn,

Sad streaks of gore the rosy bars,
