The Horrors of Famine.

An article on the famine in Persia, in
the New York Herald, has the follow.
ing "The writer was in India in 1868,
and witnessed some of the horrors of
the terrible famine which prevailed in
Ajmere, and which, according to official
statistics, caused two millions of deaths.
No sight on earth can be pictured more
terrible than a crowd of miserable crea.
lures frenzied by hunger. Spectral
forms stretch forth long, thin arms,
with the elbow joint standing out in
bold relief, like huge ball, and the
hands spreading like the roots of tree,
and demand in shrill accents the means
of life. And such eyes and faces as
glare at you Years hence they haunt
you in dreams, like some hideous pic
ture of madhouse, or battlefield, or
an execution. And if you have courage
to examine in all their minuti@ these
revolving forms of misery, the most cal
lous heart may well turn sick with
disgust which is strangely mingled with
terror. In many cases the victim Of
starvation takes a peculiar form of fever
the famine fever. His body breaks
out in ulcers from head to foot, and his
blood burns in the fortunes of a living
fire. Better far the quick though re-
pulsive horrors Of the plague than the
prolonged torments that hang in the
wake of great famine"

The Pope.

A letter to the New York Herald from
Rome, contains the information that
the Pope has selected the island Of
Corsica as the place of his future retreat.
though any determination on his part
to leave Rome has not yet been made
apparent; and that Cardinal Antonelli
has had the chateau at Cotri placed at
the disposal of the Holy Father by NJ.
Vallery, of Marseilles, which is being
extensively fitted up for his reception.
The publication of the Pope's letter
against the revolutionary journals has
diminished the sale of these sheets
about one-half, and their, total dis
appearance at this rate will be wit
messed in short time; but, not
outstanding this result, the revolu
tionists are at work with newspa per
organs, and new journal, entitled
Luther, has been projected, which is
aimed at his destruction.
The Pope, replying to the deputation
of Roman citizens who presented him
contributions of Peters pence, said that
while relying little on the prophecies
contained in the books, yet it was writ
ten that the time would come when the
Holy See would be forced to live on the
charities of the world, but would never
be wanting money.

In January, 1867, bill was passed
declaring that within no Territory Of
the United States should suffrage be de-
MED on account of race, color, or form.
er condition.
In February, 1867, the fifteenth
amendment, securing to colored men
hibiting its withdrawal, passed both
branches of Congress.
In March, 1869, law was passed
striking the word white from all the
ordinances of this district, destroying all
discrimination against colored men in
such laws or ordinances.
In May, 1870, the bill known as the
enforcement act became law, its object
being to protect colored men in all
the rights to which other citizens are
entitled.
In April, 1871, Congress passed what
is known as the Ku Klux act, giving
the President power to protect the
loyal people of the South against or
ganized bands of assassins, and render
ing the people Of a county or city, un
der certain conditions, responsible for
the damages done therein by these out
laws.
During the same time, what was the
record of the Democratic party? What
did it do, except play into the hands of
traitors, raising its hands in holy horror
at the idea of giving the ballot to all
citizens of the country alike? Let every
one Judge for himself which party is to
be trusted in the future.

The Amsterdam Ship Canal.

The Amsterdam Ship Canal was
commenced in 1866. 1t runs through
two shallow lakes, and enbankments
are built on each side of the line Of the
canal, and the bed is then dredged out
to the required depth. The lakes are
cut off from the North Sea by sand
hills, through which the canal will have
to be excavated. Piers formed of large
blocks of concrete are to be built out
for the distance of a mile to deep water,
and will enclose harbor with surface
area of 200 acres, and a depth of "a feet
below the surface of the water. The
width of the canal will be "a feet at the
bottom, and 1875 feet at the top, with a
depth of % feet. The locks will admit
ships of the largest size. The CONNER.
cal prosperity Of Amsterdam will be
greatly promoted on the completion of
this grand ship canal.

Fishing For Bass-A Strange, but True
Story.

A strange story is told on board of the
steamer City of Hartford, which runs
up the Connecticut river from her land
ing at Peck Slip, New York. While
she was lyingat Pratt's Feary, few days
ago, waiting for a messenger from Hart
ford, (says the Hartford Times, the
second mate thought he would improve
the time by fishing for bass. So he got
out his lines and hook, and bait. and
made everything ready-lighted a CT
gar, and, casting his line into the water,
sat down patiently to wait the result.
On board the boat is young colored
boy, one of those amphibious Kanakas
who came to San Francisco from the
Sandwich Islands, and eventually turned
up as boat hand, on the City of Hart
ford. Like all of his amphibious race,
he can remain long time under water.
He took it into his head to play a joke
upon the mate; and, divesting himself
of his clothes, he jumped into the wa
ter on the opposite side of the boat
from where the mate sat, hopefully but
dreamily awaiting bite"
Presently that official was startled by
I" a strong pull and long pulp at his
line. His slumbering eyes opened wide,
his breath came fast and thick, for he
thought he had captured one of the
biggest of the big" bass which abound
in the river. He attempted to pull in
his hook, but it resisted all his-efforts
Then he thought he would "play" the
fish for little while; and so he would
let out few fathoms Of line, and then
draw in again This was repeated sew
eral times, until finally the boy think.
ing he had carried the joke far enough,
held on to the line and came to the sur
face with it, just at the time the mate,
with bigger eyes than he ever exhibited
in all his life before, expected to land a
big fish, and so shouted to the men on
deck The astonishment of that of
fish-al can be better imagined than ex-
pressed when he saw the woolly cocoa
nut-head and rolling eyes of the Kan.
aka emerge from the waves At first
he thought he had caught the
cd fish" that Victor Hugo wrote
about then he didn't know what it
was; but finally, as the boy, blubber-
ing and blowing like porpoise. struck
out for the boat, ana the laughter of
some ofthe hands who were in the joke
rang in his ears, he acknowledged
himself "sold," and treated all round.
This good story is in every particular a
true one.

New SOURCE OF ALBUMEN.-The Manu-
factarer's ReUiew gives an account of
Grune's process for obtaining albumen
from new source namely, the roes OF
fishes, which, like the eggs of birds, are
rich in this important compound. The
roe is cut open and the eggs squeezed
out; when sufficient number of the
latter have accumulated, they are
thrown upon wire sieve, and rubbed
down with hard brush. The liquid al
bumen runs through the sieve, while
the cellular tissue remains behind. The
latter is washed slightly with water, to
which O.3 per cent. of ammonia has
been added The coagulated solution is
permitted to stand few days in tall
vessels. which are provided with wooden
stop-cocks at different heights; by that
time the solution will have settled,whe
it is poured into shallow pans and evap-
grated in W i ventilated specially con.
structed drying chambers. Sometimes
the solution will have to be filtered
through coarse sand or powdered glass
in order to clear it. Albumen obtained
i'm this manner from fresh water fish, is
very fine, clear, and devoid of smell, if
prepared with due care; but saltwater
fish must be worked up when still fresh,
as otherwise it will have slightly dis.
agreeable odor.

AN AMATEUR EDIToR.-The trick of
John Phoenix, in California, some years
ago, by which, in the absence of the ed
itor of a newspaper, he changed its pol
itics, to the CONSERVATION Of its readers,
has parallel in Massachusetts,. The
Lawrence Eagle printed the following
notice few days ago: "The editor of
this paper has gone into the country on
his annual vacation, and has left us in
charge editorial. He is for Loring, first,
last, and all the time, and, if betting
man, would go his bottom dollar that
Loring will be the next Governor of
Massachusetts,. Now, as he gave no in
structions, except to furnish sufficient
copy leaving all else to our judgment,
consequently for the next two weeks we
shall shout out for Butler. When Mr..
