social converse, supper and chit-chat. Ameri-
can fashion and beauty presented quite an en-
livening, unrestrained and cheering feature
even in the very highest circles of French
society.
From London we have special fashions

Bull were about to bestir himself and show
that he can ''do the thing handsomely" just
as he pleases and when he pleases. John

the celebrated Celtic convict be discharged

to much dancing, had some very fine balls,
and a ''good time" with few aristocratic

We thus present the two great European
capitals to the readers of the HERALD side

ballroom and domestic enjoyment, and in

THE CASE OF PIERRE BoNAPARTE.-The
correction of the former despatch in regard to
the trial Of Prince Bonaparte puts the matter
in quite a different light. The Prince is to be
tried under articles of the Criminal Code that
involve the death penalty If the prisoner is
found guilty, but leave it in the discretion Of
the court to modify this penalty If there are
extenuating circumstances The least possi-
BILE punishment, in case Of verdict of guilty,
will be long term of imprisonment or depor-
tauon.

Church Services To-Day.

Our readers will have only to glance over
our list Of church services to-day to pick Out
almost any variety of sermon, denomination
or creed that they WISH ''The religious
world is all before them where to choose"
Be they Jews or Gentiles, they will find bill
of fare served up to suit their taste. They
can pay their money and take their choice,
and, in some instances, they can take their
choice without paying their money. They can
hear good music, instrumental, choral Or con-
gregational, Scan leading fashions, eminently
temporal, and receive religion, purely doc
trinal, ifthey like. In the matter of fashions
and music their choice may be little limited,
but in point Of doctrine they can sit under any
kind of teaching that they wish,
political, social, ,spiritualstic or religious.

wisdom uttered by one who comprehends
that the Almighty has an ear for elocution
and is not aversc to an innocent joke. At
other places in the city he can hear the pro-

Livingstone's Explorations.

The Bombay Gazette of October 30 con-
tains further particulars of the explora-
tions and discoveries of Dr. Livingstone.
The British Consul at Zanzibar, under
the date of September Z, 1869, forwards
to the Government Secretary at Bombay
extracts from letter that day received
from DIR. Livingstone. The Doctor says
have had no news from anywhere for
two years and upward. For Captain
Frazer and our friends at Zanzibar I may
say that have found what believe to
be the source of the Nile, between ten
degrees and twelve degrees south, or
nearly in the position assigned to it by
Ptolemy.
1t is not one source fiom a lake, but
upward Of twenty of them. Lake LIEN
ba, which is possibly an arm of the
Tanganyika, has four rivers flowing into
| it. One I measured, and found it to be
294 feet say 100 yards wide, and waist
deep, and flowing fast in September. No
rain had fallen since the 18th Of May /;
elsewhere it almost requires canoes This
has eleven good sized "buons flowing
into it. Taking these four rivers as one
line of drainage Ga fifth from Marengo
must be added then the Chambezi flows
from the sind into one centre of the great
valley, and receives these streams as large
as the Isis at Oxford or the Avon at Ham
ilton. Chambezi enters Bangweolo Lake
and receives two streams, then changes its
name to Luapula, and flowing north, re-
ceives two streams of about fifty yards
EACH Luapula receives one, and enters
Moore Lake to receive five streams; one
is eighty yards broad, and always re-
quires canoes on leaving Moore 1t is
called Luababa, which receives two good
sized streams and it forms Ulenge, either
lake with many islands or division
with many streams, which are taken up by
the Lufra, a large river, which by five
large streams drains the west side Of the
great valley, which probably is that of
the Nile. 9&Es@
I have still to follow down the Luaba-
ba and see whether, as the natives assert,
it passes Tanganyika to the west, or enters
it and finds an. exit by the river called
Locinda in lake Chowambe, which I con-
lecture to be that discovered by Mr..
Baker.
shall not follow the Luababa by ca
noes, as we did the Zambesi, from near
the Victoria Falls to the Kebrabassa.
That was insanity, and 1 am not going
to do any more mad things merely to
please geographers who are mostly in
sane My positions have been altered
for the most idiotic reason at places
where no one else observed or will OBJ
serve in our day; and after all our care IN
laying down Lake Nyassa, 200 miles are
| tackled on TO ifs n northwest end the which
200 miles of water are perched up on a
height of 5000 feet above the rest.
Yours, &C., DAVID LIVINGSTONE.

Telegraphers' Strike.

Nearly every paper we take up con-
tains an account of the strike of the OPP
orators of the Western Union Telegraph
Company in various parts of the country.
The strike, we believe, originated in
the discharge of two operators in Cal
ifornia, who refused to accede to reduc-
tion in their wages. Since then the strike
has become general throughout the United
States, and operators have left their in.
struments by the wholesale, in all the
large cities north and south.
AS a general thing the operators union
is upheld in this case by the Topographic
cal unions in the eastern cities, and meet
ings have been held at which appropria-
atoms have been made by the typograph-
ical union to sustain the operators in the
course they have adopted. The typo
graphical union of Washington passed a
resolution asking the president of the
National union to call meeting of the
unions in different parts of the country,
to take action in the matter.
The w. U. Telegraph company are
confident of their abb lily to carry on the
war, and that it will result, in the end,
in their favor while the Lightning
League" are equally confident of the sue
cess of their operations Operators, like
printers, are thick as flies in warm
weather, and, while this is the
case, it will be hard to overreach
an organization that can command the
amount of capital at the disposal of the
Western Union.

THE KENOSHA TELEGRAPH,
I THURSDAY. JAN 10, 1870.
A Word to our Subscribers.

As we said few weeks ago, we are
sending bills to our subscribers delin-
quent subscribers-as fast as we can make
them out. We aim to send all to one
Post Office at the same time. In going
over the subscription list we find many
delinquents-some for one, some for two,
and tsome for three years. The number
of delinquents-especially of delinquents
for three years-is astonishingly great.
These delinquents have excused them
selves by saying that the TELEGRAPH of
flee has heretofore sent collector around,
and that they were waiting to be called
upon We have tried sending collector
around and find that it costs too great a
proportion of the demands collected to
Justify doing business in that way. The
only way is to require subscribers to pay
without expense to the Office.
Only few to whom bills have been
sent have responded. One, in neigh
boring state, wrote, saying his bill for
three years was all right, but he wanted
to be informed how he could send the
money The reply was that if he could
not find an opportunity to send it, he
could inclose it in a letter in presence of
the Post Master at our risk. He did So
inclose it and enough more with it to pay
for paper, envelopes and postage of two
} letters, and all came safely He has our
thanks. and all delinquents shall have
thanks when they do as we'll 5
- No one need remain delinquent on ac-
I, count of not knowing now to send money.
Every Post Master is under obligations
to register Money Letters flor fee of Is.
{ cents each, and it is found by the Post
Office that registration is a virtual assu-
rance of the safe conveyance of the
money. s3e
We would say to our subscribers that
if they want good paper they must pay
for it. Delinquent subscribers must pay
up what is due, and all must pay in &C
cordancs with our advertised terms, $500
in advance. Then we can save the time
we now give to making collections and
devote it to making the TELEGRAPH
what we desire it to be. And we trust
we shall be able to make it an ADLER,
better, and more desirable paper than it
has ever yet been. ra
We will not neglect to give credit
where credit is due. Some are always
prompt to pay in advance, and sometimes
some have paid for another year before
the time for which they had already paid
had expired. All these subscribers have
many thanks for their payments, and for
the example which they set for others.
New subscribers now generally pay in
advance, and to them we make acknowl-
edgdments, and we tender in advance
acknowledgements and thanks to all who
will make advance payments.
On the reception of money sent to us
in payment for subscriptions we will in
close in the next paper a receipt therefor.
We have right to inclose bills for sub
scriptions and receipts for payments of
subscriptions in the TELEGRAPH sent to
the subscribers. r
