Power Of Cooperation In Animals.

An energetic scientific gentleman in
England recently gave lecture to n pro-
vincial audience on the power Of coop
Grafton IN animals. He took rs his ex-
amplcs the bee, the beaver, and the
buffalo. His audience were much
pleased, and the elderly country clergy
mau with whom he was staying seemed
especially delighted. But it is not easy
to realize to the mind the horror which
came into the breast of the scientific
gentleman when, sitting in the counts y
church to listen to sermon from his
host, he heard that good man illustrate
the wonderful wisdom of Providence by
representing the bee, the beaver and the
buffalo as all three working tog, ther in
some foreign land in harmonious and
systematic combination.

A Great Blast.

Gen. Newton says that the blasting
ont of the bottom of the He'll Gate ex-
cavatious in New York harbor will prob
ably take place about the middle of Sep
tember. 1t will require about $4,000
Pounds OF explosives to do the work.
The materials used will be nitro glycer-
Inc, rend rock and dynamite, according
to the nature OF the rock to be blasted.
Instead of placing the explosives in sew
eral large masses, it is to be scattered
over the rock in small charges. Holes
have been drilled in the rock columns
that support the roof, the number vary
ing according to the height Of the col
umn. These arc to be charged with the
explosives, and then it is to be exploded
by means of electricity. The blowing
up Is to be done in thrce sections, and
the effect will bo to crumble the pillars
and allow the roof to sink in.
The great opinion that the whole mass
is to be hurled into the air Mt one grand
blast is erroneous. Beyond few beau
tlful jets Of water shot into the air. ard
perhaps a few pieces Of rock hurled
above the surface of tho water, nothing
will he seen. When all il prepared, the
water is to be let III and the chambers
flied, thus forming what is called in eu-
gineering parlance "a wet tamp."
The water will confne the force of the
numerous blasts, and enable them to act
with greater force. After the explosion
1T will be necessary to do considerable
dredging in tho way OF hauling out
pieces of rock. This will take several
months, but will probably be completed
by next spring. The persons operating
the blast will occupy position 800 or
400 feet away.
The improvements will deepen the
channel about thirty feet, and allow of
the passage of the largest vessels. where
before only crafts of high draft could
go. 1t is expected that the ocean steam
ers will take this route, as it is shorter
than the Sandy Hook route by about
eighteen hours.

African Superstition.

The king of Dahomy has invoked the
doing SO is somewhat curious, it may
throw some light on the character Of
the African native in its pristine purity
to describe the process. An imitation
Of ship in wood, executed in the most
elementary ideas of naval architecture,
has been placed on mound, and about
eight hundred or nine hundred natives
have been paraded before it. A drink
was then administered TO each man, and,
according to his attitude after imbibing,
the chief priest decided whether he was
to be sold as slave or offered up Is .
sac,idce to appease the gods.
The tribune. [volume] (Beaufort, S.C.) 1874-1876, 1876-08-30

John Mangovan, farmer of North
Easthope, Canada, came home from
market and going to his room cut his
throat with razor. He then went to
another room where his father was and
slapped him on the back, when the old
man turned around and was Mortified to
sec his son with frightful cash in his
neck. A neighbor who was there thrust
handful Of feathers into the cut and
stanched the flow of blood.

How GIRL Cor INTO THE HAREM.-A
few years ago an English woman named
Tompkins, who kept shop ut Pera, sum-
moned from England, to aid her in her bust
ness, young niece, who proved to be ex-
tremely pretty and no less intelligent. Soon
after her arrival she took it into her head to
study Turkish, representing to her aunt
that such knowledge would be of great adj
vantage to their trade, as the Turkish iadies
would naturally prefer to make theif pur,
chases where they could be understood
without the aid Of an interpreter. AS the
young girl was at once clever, ambitious, and
industrious, she soon succeeded in acquir-
ing the language, and numbers OF the
female members of the noblest Turkish IA
miles came to the English shop. One day
the pretty niece went to the harem Of Prince
Mnrad to take home some article ordered
by his principal wife. She never returned,
and when her aunt sent in search Of her she
received cool message OF farewell from the
young lady herself, who had become the
fourth vile OF the heir to the throne, who

The Nas.,e Negro.

This term is derived from the Latin word
ssniger," signifying black or dusky. Ihe
word 6 negro y seems to have been adopted
into the English language from the Spanish
TO denote the African tribes from winch
slaves were introduced into the West lndles
and the American colonies. 1t was not
originally term Of rcproach. AS, however,
1t was chiefly used to signify persons IN
state OF slavery, it gradually came to con-
yey the reproach attached 10 that condl-
ton. Then persons OF kind feelings to-
wards the negroes employed other terms
to describe them. Some called them
e Africans.'' This name is manifcstly mac
curatc. The negroes Of this country and OF
the West Indies are descendants OF African
tribes, but are no more Africans than the Vir-
ginians are English. BY writers the negroes
are sometimes styled Philippians" This
is clearly a misnomer. Ethiopia was on the
eastern part OF the continent OF Africa, and
the negroes of the western coast might
rs properly be called Egyptians or Abys-
sinians as Philippians. The name "colored
people" has been generally used, for
want OF better, in Difference to their
feelings. 1t is singular, however, that
they are the only people in the world who
are not "colored." According to the teach
ing OF naturalists, black is not color, but
the absence OF IL. Inc mOucFn titie VI
"freedmen" can be properly applied only
to that portion OF the race that was einanci-
pated. and it must always imply their pre-
yious slavery. The word 'nigger" is a
corruption OF the term negro-a vulgarism,
and used only by the illiterate or the rude.
All persons OF consideration and refinement
will carefully avoid employing any term to
denote the race that would wound their sem
sibilities. These remarks have been prefa-
tory.
We need some common, inofienSive term
to denote the sable race among us. In our
Judgment "negro" is the most suitable
word for the purpose. 1t carries in itself
no reproach. and is descriptive Of the race.
We do not ordinarily use it because it CRATES
on their feelings; but we frequently feel
the need OF it, and can find no adequate sub
stitutc for it. What we wish to suggest is that
the colored people shall adopt the name one
gro" for their race. Let their writers and
public speakers use it. In their large rep
resentative meetings for religious or other
purposes let them pass resolutions approx
ing its use. This course will free the term
from all the opprobrium supposed to be at
tached to it, and put their friends ut liberty
to use it in speaking or writing OF them.
Such course would be credtable to the
race and u positive gain to our language
