CARD

Having become satisfied after thorough invosti-
cation that Elastic Sponge, as now and lately man
ulactured, is of the best of a the substitutes
for curled hair, for many If net most uses in up
holstery, we have accepted the Agency of it, and
intend to make it hereafter n speciality in our
business. The objections which have been made
to it and which it is well known ourselves have
thought were well founded, wo have ascertained
cannot be urged against the article perfect
ed. The process Of manufacture has been entirely
remodeled under the advice atd stpefihtendencs
Of one of the most eminont chethists Of New Eng
land. New chemical ana Mechanical appliances
have been introduced in cleaning crude Sponge,
and it with glycerine with such entire success,
that Elastic Sponge may now be said to / G chcmie
ally pure. There is absolutely nothing in it but
the clean fibre # Sponge and chemically pure
glyeerine.
The objections to Elastic Sponge being thus 70.
moved there remain Its undisputed merits which
certainly entities it te be considered ofe CT the
most valuable as it is one of the most curious and
interesting of late discoveries. Chief among these
merits is, that it is proof against NOTES.-The great
scourge Of the business Against al other insects.
Then its elasticity Is permanent, based and IL ID
upon the non-evaporable property Of slyccrne
and the indestructlhility OF sponge Of fibre. We
have alAays been satisfied upon these two points
which are the essential requisites in sneh material.
The evidence is equal clear that II il wholp-

The Country of the Niam.Niams.

The African traveller, DIR. G. Schweinfurth
gives an interesting account in the Cologne Ga
zette OF an expedition in the country of the Nj
ams-Niams, which, he says, had never been
visited by scientific traveller before. He per-
formed the journey as the guest of Mohammed
Abu Sammat, trader in ivory, and the party
consisted of 300 PERSONS The climate of the
country is Extremely healthy" but travelling
Is difficult on account of the numerous rivers
and marshes in the southern districts the cara
van often had TO cross a river or bog, the
crossing sometimes occupying several hours.
The general character of the land is that of a
steppe, except on the banks of the rivers, which
are thickly wooded and provided with-narrow
footpaths. In crossing river the travellers
usually sank to their hips in black mud, land
huge leeches stuck to their legs. They suffered
good deal for want of food; and all they could
get was corn occasionally, and some dubious
roots (cassave, colocasia, bananas and excellent
yamsl, but no meat except fowls.
On the return journey they killed some large
antelopes, without which they would have been
almost starved. They passed through the do
minions of the chief Serbia Sabbi and Nganye
Uaudo, (the latter Of whom presented DIR.
Schweinfurth with a large jar full of scorched
elephants tripe, taken from an animal hun
drcd years old,) and finally reached the residence
of Munsa, the king of Mombuttu. This place
lies at about three degrees north latitude, south
of the great Uele river, which Dr. Schweinfurth
(atfluent Of Lake Tchad,) and joins the Blue Nile
at Khartoum. Munsa is "reddish-brown
savage, covered all over with shining copper
ornaments, like awell-kept Kitchen" his wives
are painted in all sorts of colors, and the rooms
in his palace are as large as railway stations;
that in which the travellers were received was
one hundred feet long, fifty feet wide, and forty
feet high
Cannibalism is prevalent both among the
Mombuttu and the Niam-Niams. MunSa eats
human flesh daily, and the Mombuttu go regu-
larry on hunting expeditions among the wild
negro races in the south; the dead and wounded
are either eaten on the spot or their flesh dried
for future consumption, and the prisoners are
carried away to be eaten at leisure. AS for the
Maintains, they make war on the Nubians
out of sheer cannibaism. "Flesh, feshp is
their war cry, and any slave that comes in their
way is at once sacrificed to their ruling passion.
On the return journey the travellers were repeat
eddy attacked by Niam-Niams with lances and
boomerangs, but their only casualties were two
wounded, one of whom was the leader Of the
caravan, Mohammed Abu Sammat. Beth soon
recovered.

ITALY.
ROME, Jan, 4.-Atter the arrival of the
prince and princess OF Piedmont there were i'm
mense crowds at the station and the Quirinal
palace. The weather was horrible. The troops
of the garrison and four legions of the national
guard paraded. The prince and princess, with
Gen. La Alarmora and Prince Dorea, drove to
the palace in an open carriage, where they were
received with enthusiastic demonstrations. Both
were called out to the balcony again and again
with tremendous applause. The Princess Mar
guerite wore a blue velvet mantle and white
satin embroidered scarf with the colors of the
house of Savoy. There was perfect order and
the illuminatiOus were general.
The ambassadors of Austria and North Ger
many, in compliance with instructions from
their various governments, enqulred of Anto-
nell what guarantees the pope would regard
sufficient on the part of the Italian government
TO remove his dissent TO the civil and religious
authorities. Antonelli replied that by order of
the pope he had intimated TO the court of Rome
that his holiness wished no guarantees but their
pure and simple restitution of the territories of
the church and the Neapolitan frontier of the
Pc. He would accept no arrangement not based
on these conditions.
The pope's health is good. He occupies his
time in receiving visitors. A Belgium deputa-
ton presented him with an offering from the
Catholics of Belgium and an address. The pope
replied: 81 thank you for having come to COM
fort me in these painful circumstances. Doubt
less Tod, our pflnclpal support, hath sent you;
but it is natural that the affection Of children
should keep up the courage of the father. Con-
tinue in the way you are walking. Do not
allow yourselves to be cast down. What is hap
pening to-day Is only a trial of the church. The
church was born amidst trials, has always lived
amidst trials, and will close its career on earth
amidst trials"
MADAM LYNCH.
LONDON, Jan. 24.-Lord Penzance, head of
the probate court of England, has granted to
Madam Lynch letters of administration upon
the will of eX-President Lopez of Paraguay. The
execution of the original will by Lopez was
proved by the affidavit of Gen. Mcmahon, for
merly minister of the United States to Para
quay.

FRIGHTFUL CRDiEs.-News comes to us from
England that Dorsetshire is in disgrace. There
is murder in the air Of that county. Not mere
vulgar patricide, matricide or fratricide but
"vulpicide" Some monsters of farmers, vulgar
wretches who prefer the good condition of their
crops to the pleasure of the fox hunter, have
positively been poisoning his precious prey.
These appalling atrocities have been committed
on the estate Of Lady Theodore Grosvenor,
young lady who inherits large property in the
county-where, by the way, the condition of the
peasantryis more miserable than in any other
from her father, the millionaire marquis of
Westminster. Here is her spirited protest:
"Several foxes have lately been poisoned-one
on the very day that Mr.. Potman's hounds were
at Kings court. Poisoning foxes is a dastardly
action, and one which brings a very bad name
on county, and is also dangerous to the
hounds; certainly no master would care to risk
bringing his hounds into a county where it is
made practice Of This poisoning must not
go on. | reckon confidently on the cordial
assistance of the farmers in our endeavor to dis
cover where the foul play is going on, and
trust they will all worA together, and do their
utmost to bring to light tie authors Of practice
which has, am vexed TO sAt, already brought
our part of the country into IND repute." Such
a manifesto is no doubt admirably calculated to
bring the erring back to the paths of virtue, and
make them view with delight the hoofs of Lady
Theodora's horse, and those of III friends, plow
ing up their fields, and her fayok,es feeding off
their fowls. a.

An APOSTLE OF TEMPERANCE.-The follow
ing good temperance story is told by the New
York Evening Post:
"About year since gentleman in business
in this city, and largely interested in the cause
of temperance, had occasion TO visit England in
one Of the steamers Of the Cunard line, and no.
ticed the first day out the midday distribution of
grog to the forecastle hands. The same evening
he visited the forecaste, and found that but two
Of the seamen were temperance men. With
their aid he instituted evening meetings. and
every night stad late with the men, telling tenn
perance anecdotes, singing songs of like char
acter, &c. Towards the end of the voyage he
prepared pledge sheet, which twenty-four of
the steamers hands signed, including cooks,
stewards, coal-passers, &c.
On reaching the dock, entirely TO the surprise
oil the slgners, he presented each of them with a
sovereign, which he requested they would de-
post IN savings bank, that il might be a nu-
eleus for future savings, and received a promise
from eacn mat they would write once year to

The committee of the Kentucky legislature, to
which was referred that portion of the gov
ernor's message relating to recent outrages in
the state, have reported most stringent bill,
giving the governor authority to employ secret
detective police to ferret out the midnight muir
derers and bring them to justice. The bill en-
trusts the governor with a secret service fund,
to be used for this purpose. Without admitting
negro testimony, however, which is now ex-
cluded from the courts of that state, it win be
found impossible to convict the ruffians in most
cases, and the governor viii need more power
than the laws of that state give him, and more
energy and frmness to make use of it than he
has shown any evidence that he possesses, to

A HEROIC ENGINEER.-The name of Enos
B. Hopes, engineer on the Pennsylvania Cen
trial railroad, deserves immortality as that of
hero, for the manner in which he recently met
his death. car attached to a freight train,
bound west, had lost wheel, and was being
carried down a grade by the momentum of the
train, pitching and jumping over cross ties, and
making the fire fly out of the stones and iron,
Mr.. Hopes was coming eastward on train
with fast freight, and as he neared the wrecked
train he thought he saw something wrong. 1t
was dark, and to see more plainly he stepped to
the hreman's side, which is next the other track
Just then the wrecked car struck his engine
breaking his leg in four places, crushing his hip,
tearing away half of one of his feet, and knock
ing him, in company with the fireman and
brakeman, back into the tank. Every man upon
Hoopess engine was injured. The fireman and
brakeman lay senseess on the floor of the tank.
The conductor of the train and the other brake
men were on rear car and knew nothing of the
disaster. The train was not so much injured as
to delay its progress, and Mr.. Hopes knew that
if it was not promptly stopped it must run into
the hind end of the one next ahead which
would stop at a station less than three miles off
for water. Mr.. Hopes, crushed and bleeding,
dragged himself slowly and painfully over the
PROSTATE bodies of his comrades TO the throttle
valve of his engine, shut off the steam wills tied
down brakes, sounded the summons for the con-
ductor and fell back exhausted. When the
train stopped and the conductor came forward
Mr.. Hopes was trying to stop the flow OF blood
from his wounds by tying up his shattered leg,
aud said, at is all up with me; do the best you
can for me-" He fingered until next day in great
agony, which he bore with his usual bravery,
and then died, lamented by all who knew him
