The Pail Mall Gazette states that a
recent number of a leading Icelandic news
paper contains an advertisement which to
ladies will be not little alarming. 1t runs
as follows: Two Russian merchants,
Messrs. Johannesburg and Welensky, have
arrived in this country, who are DESTROYS of
buying wOmen's hair. They pay we'll"
The full significance of this annOunc ement
viii be at once apparent. Russia, which
up to this time has supplied chignOns with
liberal hand to the "cOiffeurs" of London
and Paris, has at length given in, and the
dealers have been obliged to seek in
the uttermost parts Of the earth for
the necessary material for their trade,
and to ''pay well' for it. Pro-
baby the inducement thus held out will
have the desired effect, bat when all the
available tresses of poverty-stricken Ice
landic women have fallen under the scis-
sors of Messrs. Johannesburg and Welen-
sky, where are those enterprising gentle
men to look for a further supply? Unless
the leaders of feminine fashion can introduce
a taste for the woody curls of Africa, or the
coarse black hair of the Tartar races, we
fear that they will some day be compelled
to content themselves with the plaits and
twists with which nature has supplied them.

Music and MethOdism.

A curious contest attracts public atten-
ton in New York. The Seventh-strcet
Methodist church unfortunately adjoins
the lager-beer and music garden of Paul
Falk, and Paul gives music free on Sun
day to customers who buy their lager of
him. The trombones and trumpets so
disturbed the worshippers that application
was made to the courts to suppress the
garden and its amusements. The result
was that Paul prevailed, and continues to
dispense his refreshment for the thirsty
curious suit
The lively fight between Paul Falk. the
owner of a lager-beer garden, and the
Seventh-street Methodist Church, ended
to-day, it will be observed, in victory
for the defendant. In court to-day the
trumpets in Reinzi, the trombones in Gil
Ugonotti, the waltzes of Strauss, and the
polkas OF Labitsky were forgotten for
time, but in their stead Rhine wine and
cider, varied with the fumes of Timber
ger and Wourst, were ''the troubles"
What steps our friends, the Methodists,
will next take to rid themselves of this
so-called 'obnoxious individually it is diff
hcult to say. AS disinterested observers
we see no help for them unless they pro-
Vlde more attractive entertainment than
the beer garden. Beer as all we'll know,
Is good. Music is still better. Combine
the two, and they are irresistible. Conse-
quently, the church must institute a coun-
ter-attraction to retain its would.be stray
ing sheep, or else it must apply a more
stringent discipline. The sheep must be
supplied with better fodder than hereto
fore, or else their tethers must be made
shorter and stronger. The odds are against
the church, but what can they do about
it, unless they act as we have suggested

The Kankakee Company's Enterprise.

We extract the following article from
the Wilmington Oll) Advocate of the Sd
instant, indicating the prompt and extern
sive use of their navigation, twenty-one
miles OF which is now in successful opera
ton, and in which II. O. Alden, of this
city, is largely interested. AT the same
rate of progress a large revenue will
accrue therefrom alone, assuring the
company already of an income more than
equivalent to the interest on the cost of
all their words thus far. The first cargoes
transported on the works were stone and
ice, articles never counted upon us sources
of revenue at the time this enterprise WAS
started:
