Shanghai-ing Emigrants,

Dressing Up Emigrants as Sailors and
shipping Them as Regular SheIIbaelxs.
The public will learn with surprise at
the present moment that the Shanghai
ing" of emigrants for sailors is being
carried on TO a large extent in New York
city, says a local paper The opening
of navigation in the lakes has had the
effect of draining from the port a large
number Of men, who prefer engaging in
that trade to embarking in long sea voy-
ages. This, combined with the incon-
venienses produced by the open war
between United States Commissioner
Duncan and the sailors boarding house
masters, has created an almost unprece-
dented demand for the services of
''Poor Jack, and ruses and receptions
of all kinds have been practiced to put
sailors, real or affected in character,
upon outgoing American vessels, and
to obtain their advanced notes. Within
the last few weeks wholesale system
of fraud has been carried on by a large
number of the sailors' boarding house
proprietors, who shanghai" men in the
following fashionable great hunting
ground for the embryo sailor is Castle
Garden, where any amount of unem-
ploYed labor can be daily seen, strolling
round the place, and listlessly watching
the passing shipping. The boarding
house man will probably introduce him
self to some recently arrived emigraut,
and after wishing him "good day" will
inquire if he (the victim) would like to
work his passage out to San Francisco.
Naturally the man replies Eyes" and
the pair go off to q boarding house,
generally situated in the Cherry stree t
slums. On their way there it is explain
ed to him that his duties on board the
ship will be quite nominal, merely to
attend to the captains table-but that
it is necessary he should be dressed as
a sailor before he is shipped. Accord
ingly sailors overalls is obtained,

name of the emigrant is being signed
at tie Office of the United States Ship.

capable of proceeding on voyage tc
-, on board the vessel, and to sun
up in word his name is affixed to the
shipping articles by some authorized
forger, who has not the remotest inten
ton of shipping. When the hour comes
for the departure of the vessel, news is
sent round among the boarding houses
and few hours afterwards the emf
grants find themselves installed as
sailors on board an outgoing vessel. II
is no stretch of imagination to say that
these men are shanghaied. AS soon as
their useless character is discovered the
men are very often beaten as frauds by
the Infatuated master or officers, who
find that they are saddled with "greer
hands, perfectly useless for the naviga
ton of the vessel. The emigrant finds
himself bound, perhaps, for Liverpool
on elmer, instead of the Pacific slope
In addition to himself, he often finds
other "green hands" who are defraud

SUMMER EVENING DRESSES. -Evening
dresses for summer balls and hops are
made of two shades of gossamer tulle,
or else of tarlatan. For instance, two
shades of rose-colored tulle appear in
one dress. The low Josephine waist is
of the darkest shade, covered with
lengthwise puffs of lighter rose. The
skirt has three front breadths covered
with lengthwise puffs of the two shades
alternating. The back breadths have
five or else seven founces of double
tulle laid in side pleats, and are of al
ternating tints. A tulled sash is draped
loosely about the hips, crossing high on
the right side, and being caught togeth-
er low down on the left with a cluster of
roses of variegated hues-pink, red,
deep crimson and pale buff.

EDITORIAL NOTICES are so common
that it is almost impossible for an edi-
tor to express his honest opinion of the
merits of any article without being sus-
pected of interested motives. This
TACT, however, shall not deter us from
saving what we think of q new addition

tention has been recently directed. We

VINEGAR BITTERs, a remedy which is
making its way into more families just
now than all the other advertised medi-
cines put together. Its popularity, as
Tar as we can judge, is not based on
empty pretention. There seems to be
no question about the potency of its
tonic and Alternative properties, while it
possesses the great negative recommen-
lation of containing neither alcohol nor
mineral poison. That it is a specific
for Indigestion, Bilousness, Constipa-
ton, and r.any complaints of nervous
origin, we have reason to know and
we are assured on good authority that
as general invigorant, regulating and
purifying medicine, it has no equal. II
is stated that its ingredients, obtained
from the wilds of California are new
to the medical world and it's extraor,
binary effects certainly warrant the con
clusion that it is a compound of agents
hitherto unknown. If popularity is
any criterion, there can be no doubt o.
the efficiency of the VINEGAR BITTERs
for the sale of the article is immense
and continually increasing. Com.

1t is maintained that the inferior
quality of certain kinds of wheat and
rye flour is frequently due to the action
of sunlight on the fonr even when in
bags or barrels the gluten experiences q
change similar to that occasioned by
heating in the mill. The tendency
thus impaired to it, to become lumpy,
and to form dough without toughness,
is similar to that of flour from moist
grain, or flour when it is too fresh, OF
made from grain ground too early, OF
when adulterated with cheaper barley
meal. Such flour can be improved by
keeping for some weeks.
