It is fact not without interest that of
the tour groups Of statuary forming the
corners of the base of the new monument
to the late prince consort of England, that
representing America IS pretty generally
considered the most striking and satisfac-
tory. It quite subOrdinates Canada and
the British interests on this continent
throdgh the dominating power of the
Union, Though truth does not always pre-
vail over pride in art when employed to
commemorate the dead, it seems to have
done so in this single instance.

A new use has been found for divorce
suits in California. A woman lately brought
a suit against a San Francisco uIan during
his absence at the East and obtained a lib
eral allowance for support during the pen
dency of the suit and for counsel fees and
costs, and when he returned action was
taken to collect the amount. Then it was
shown for the first time that the man had
never been married to the lady, and did not
know her at all; but the allowance, etc.,
had been already decreed by a competent
tribunal. See how we poor men are at the
mercy of designing women.

FIRE AND PowDER.-Early yesterday
morning a man named johnson was enjoy
ing his matutinal pipe Of tobacco. Instead
of concentrating all his time and talent to
that single occupation he made diversion
by engaging in handling gunpowder. Being
somewhat clumsy, he permitted fire to drop
from his pipe into the powder. The mixture
failed to remain entirely calm, and imme-
diately there arose cloud of white smoke
and Mr.. johnson. 1t is undecided which Of
the two raised first, but.the man thinks he
didn't beat the smokes time much His
face and hair are not pretty to look at, and
the furniture in the room is now rated as
sacnnd class.

CuriOsitIes of the Uxbridge Bank Rob-
han.v.
From the Boston 3, July 29I


From the Boston ss July 49,
On Saturday, Messrs. z. B. Hayward and
Jacob Taft both connected with the Tx
bridge Bank, visited the Office of the Chief
of Police, and presented communication
having no signature, and mailed in New
York on the twenty fifth instant, stating
that some articles stolen from the UXbridge
Bank could be found buried in the Back
Bay lands, giving diagram of the locality.
Officers Ham and v God, of the city police,
in company with the gentlemen above
named, Immediately set out to prospect.
Guided by the diagram, they proceeded to
the grounds, borrowed some tools from some
wOrkmen in the neighbOrhOod, and began
operations. After a somewhat prOJracted
search, a copy of a Boston newspaper was
unearthed, containing a gold watch, dia-
mOnd ring, two plain gold rings, a gold
thimble, a pair of hair bracelets, two gold
pencils, two pairs of gOld-b0wed spectacles,
and several other articles which were
kcepsakes, the property of little Mabel
Taft, left to her by her deceased mother,
and which had been placed in the vault of
the bank for safekeeping by her grand
father, the cashier. MI Hayward expresses
great satisfaction at the recovery of the
property, and thinks there is truly honor
among some thieves, believing, as he does,
that the communication was sent by the
burglars in response to his advertisement
stating that these articles belonged to an
orphan child The property was uuearthed
near the junction of Dartmouth and New
bury streets, and bat for the fact that a
plank, the length and location of which the
letter gave, had been removed since the
concea1ment of the property, there would
have been no difficulty in going to the ex-
act spot where it was found. The recovery
of the stolen property inspired confidence
in the statements of another letter received
by the same gentlemen by an anonymous
source, and, following the directions given
in the letter, they went to South Framing
ham Saturday afternoon, and found bag
containing $50 in five cent nickel coins, con-
cealed behind a stone wall near the railroad
depot.

The theatrical business throughout the
country will be revOlutiOnized to great
extent the coming season. A large per-
centage of the stars will travel with com
paRies of their own, exacting their own
terms from local managers. The apparent
excuse for this is the miserably poor stock
kept at most of the inland theatres, though
the new system does not present an absolute
guarantee of anything better.

The male mosquito lives a short, idle life,
doing little harm, and subslsting upon the
sweets gathered from flowers, having
dainty preference for lilies, in whose creamy
petaled bells he pensively swings. The, fe-
male is the noisy, aggressive sex, and makes
life burden to those unfortunate mortals
encountering her. She stings then, and
"boasts1' about it, and not content with her her
own evil career, every month deposits iUO
eggs in some cool, damp place, thus multi
plying and Perpetuating her kind.

Two cases that came under my observa-
ton were so siCkening that can not allow
nv mind to dwell upon or write about
them Many of both sexes were killed, but
the women and children chiefly made cap
tives. n matter how much ivory they OBJ
tanned, these niger M0slems must have
slaves, and they assaulted market people
and villages and made captives chiefly Of
women and children, as it appeared to me,
and because, as men ran off at the report Of
guns, they could do it without danger.

men can be when they can pour out the
blood Of their fellow men in safety; and all

CONCESSIONS To THE ZANZIBAR SULTAN.
All we have conceded the Sultan Of Fan
zihar has been a right which 1t was not ours
to give, OF a certain amount Of slave trad
inc and-tbat amount has been from 1900
to 10000 slaves year, as we have seen.
These are not traded for but murdered for
they are. not slaves, but free people made
captive. A Sultan with a sense OF justice
would, instead: of taking head money, de-
clare that all were frce as soon as they
reached his territory: but Ba1ians have the
customhouse and al the Sultan's revenue
entirely in their hands He can not trust
his Mahommedan subjects, even Of the bet
ter class, to farm the income, because, as
they themselves say, he would get nothing
in return but crop of lies. The Banlans
actually work the custOmhOuse so as to
screen their own slave agents, and so long
as they have power to promote it their
atrocious system of slavery will never
cease for the sake of lawful commerce.
