The Vienna Exposition.

A letter from Vienna gives some en-
couraging details regarding the pros
pcct of the Universal Exhibition of
1873 in the Austrian capital. The
building makes rapid progress great

OF the four transverse galleries. of the
l.! palace OF Industry, being covered in.
The last day for the reception of exhib-
TORS demands for admission was the
lst OF July. The result SURPRISES all
previous precedent. More than 15. 900
Austrian exhibitors have announced
their intention of taking part in the ex-
hlbltl0n, and from Hungary alone have
come !, DOC requests for admission. Al
the first Lone n Exhibition, in 1851.
there were 1881 English exhibitors
and ct the second, in 1862, 1887. al
the first Paris Exhibition, in 1s55
there were 1908 French exhibitors
and at the second. II
1867, there were 1900; q
that the number of Austrian exhibitor,
is considerably higher than the high
es, at any similar show of the kind
The German Empire will be represent
ed by 8, 900 exhibitors, Belgium by 500
while Italy. Switzerland and other Eu
ropean countries will send their prod

Egypt, have taken the requisite step
to. ensure the participation of the Eas
IN the universal competition. Larg'
enclosures are being prepared in til

products. There is every prospect
therefore, that the Vienna Exhibition

have personally proved to be efficient in
restoring h salthy growth Of hair on the

hair is thin with warm water and soap,
then rub dry with u linen cloth, and i'm
mediately after rub in some of the above
liniment. If the hair has been rubbed of
by the animate own endeavors to allay
cutsneous irritation, then dress with the
following ointment: Ono ounce of fine
flour sulphur, ona ounce of pulverizel
saltpetre, made into soft ointment with
fresh butter or fresh rendered hogs lard !;
rub in ut night and wasl. in the morning
with warm water and soap; repeat three
or four times. If the hair is scant from

Railway Inventions.

There would seem to be a veritable
epidemie of railroad inventions Just

though perhaps sufficient for passenger

immense progress in the confidence Of

The Russian Press Again Muzzled.

The st. Petersburg correspondent of
the Cross Gazette furnishes an explana-
ton on good authority of the latest
Imperial ukase, which places the Rus
sian press once more under police COR
troll. For seven years, since 1866, it
has, at all events in the two capitals,
St. Petersburg and Moscow, been
practically free. All censorship and
administrative interference have been
abolished, and redress has been prac-
ticable only through the judgment of a
law court. The Government has, how.
ever, found the common law very in
adequate means for keeping tho press
in order, and to add to its disappoint-
ment it has been repeatedly nonsuited in
charges against opposition papers,
thereby stimulating the latter to great.
er vigor and energy in their attacks,
instead of Furnishing them. The law
courts are entitled to condemn only
the open avowal of reasonable and
otherwise punishable principles, where
as attacks by implication and 1rsinua-
ton at present pass uncensured. The
authorities, the correspondent says,
naturally feel CALLED ut their frequent
dlsappointncnts, and consider, more
over, that it is prejudicial to their Dig
nifty and power to be constantly de-
Gated.

Miners Wives and the Best limits.

The Newcastle (England) Chronicle
states that the miners wives living ut
Burnhope lately formed themselves in
to co: operative society for the pur-
pose of killing their own meat. Mr..
Grey, the viewer of the colliery, placed
at their disposal oh clubhouse, which
was whitewashed and put in repair for
a slaughter house. The women hav-
ing taken shares of IS. and 1Os., a
beast was brought and killed, and on
Saturday night the women proceeded
to the shop to buy their meat, which
was sold at 91d. per pound. Unfor-
tunately, too many of the women were
of the aame mind as to the particular
joints they wanted, and this led to Il
disturbance, which resulted in many of
the women demanding back their mon
ey. This demand, however, was not
complied with, and good many of the
intending purchasers neither got meat
nor money.

An Old Mystery.

An old London mystery seems to
have been partly unravelled. Nearly
10 years have elapsed since two lads
rowing up the Thames discovered, on
one of the abutments of Waterloo
Bridge, q carpet-bag, locked and cord
ed, which on being opened was found
to contain the mutilated fragments of
human body, and nothing further had
been discovered till the last news of the
- mystery" came from Lucknow. The
Pioneer reports that Walter Higgins, a
private of the second battalion First
Royal Regiment, in the military prison,
Lucknow, has made statement to the
effect that Mt II p M. on November 9,
1857: he was stopped in street in Lon
don by two men who asked him if he
wanted to earn few pounds. A car
pet-bag was given into his hands, and
he was told to throw it over the bridge,
which he did without looking inside it.
Higgins fixes the date of the occurrence
on the 18th of November, 1857, whereas
the carpet-bag was disvered on Water.
loo Bridge four days earlier, md it il
suggested that he has invented the
story in the hope of being sent over to
England to depose to it before a police
magistrate.

price Of turning is based on the price Of

the price has SO materially advanced, the

many brilliant tenors of the opera

agreeable. When a visitor gives him
piece of bread he takes it and asks
for more, expressing himself in loud
