A Perfect Toilet Soap.

First among the requisites of the toilet Is good
article of Soap but to procure it Is not always an
easy matter. Many Of the most expensive Soaps in
the market made from coarse aud deleteriOus
materials and their delicate colorng and fragrant
perfume too often conceal the most repulsive i'm
purties. The disclosures recently made pubic
regarding this subject are positively startling, and
deserve serious consideration. Scented Soaps are
now known to be extremely Objectionable, especial
ly if applied to the head niuring the hair, irrita
ting the scalp, and inducing severe headaches. The
character of the ingredients may be inferred from
the statement OF a gentlemen who makes the scent.
ing OF Soaps his business he recently declared that
persons engaged in this employment were short
lived; from seven 10 ten years being the longest
period during which the occupation could be fol
lowed.
The difficulty of procuring perfectly pure arti.
Gle of toilet soap Is at last Obviated, however
thanks to the enterprise and chemical skill OF Mr.
B. 7. BRbbitt, of New York, the world-renOwned
Soap Manufacturer, whose immense establishment
is by lar the greatest of the kind In the United
States. The renown Of Mr.. Babbitts various pro
Guctions has for many years been widely dissem-
mated, but this latest Is the appropriate
crown 70 the numerous victories already achieved
After years of patient labor and scientific expert
ment, MI. Bahbitt has succeeded In perfectins the
composition of the irest toilet soap ever intro
0uCed. The principal ingredients are the pures
vegetable oils; the manufacturing processes arc
entirely new and original, and the result is simply
unparalleled IN this department of industry.
."B. T. Rabbits Toilet Soap" is the trade mark
by which this elegant toilet luxury is designated
and for applications to the delicate skin of infants
children and ladies' it Is altogether unequaed in Its
emOlent properties. This Soap is not perfumed
the ingredients being OF such absolute purity
require aid from chemistry to disguise inferior
materials. The most refined taste considers the
absence of artificial perfume the perfection Of
sweetness and this peculiar characteristic of B. T
Rabbits Toilet Soap renders it the most healthfu
and agreeable article of the kind ever manufac
tured.
Though specially desirable for the use of ladies
and children, this Soap Is equally appropriate fol
gentlemen's toilet, and as II makes heavy lathcl
it is also one of the finest soaps for BARRIERS use
II is just being placed upon the market, but tht
demand for it will soon become general.-N.

Protectionists are having a hard time of
it just DOW. They have no desire to
abandon the outlets for American manu-.
features which have just been opened in
European markets, but they find it difficult
to defend high duties in the face of the
unanswerable evidence presented by this
foreign trade, that there is really no harm
to be apprcheuded from free competition
with European cheap labor. The Amer
lean consumer has right to demand that
the American manufacturer shall sell to
him at the same figures he puts on his
wares in foreign markets.

New YORK, June l3th.-Captain
Charles Macloon, of the ship Geneva,
sunk at Huanillos in the great earth
quake on the Pacific coast on the 9th
ult., has arrived He says his ship
became entangled with others near, as
they tossed wildly about, crushing
against each other, sinking almost inn
in fifteen fathoms of water.
On the first alarm he came up from
between decks. 1t was about half
past NJ. There had been several
shocks in the previous twenty days,
but had completed his cargo of guano,
and was expecting to sail the next
morning. Aside from the frightful
sound, his attention was ar
'ested by the extraordinary phenome,
ION of the mountain above being so
much agitated that the great rocks be-
,ame detached and rolled down to the
ea, resembling balls of fire. The wa
er at the anchorage suddenly receded
% that the ships in eight fathoms
ouched bottom. The Geneva, too, |
wung round at the rate of eight or
en- knots an hour in great circles, un-
il she struck against a rock, which
ore out part of her bottom. The ship
Tas then forced violently in an oppo-
lite direction, and went down. Other
essels were as violently driven ashore.
aptain Macloon says it seemed to
i'm, from the sulphurous electrical APP
earance of the mountains, that vol.
ano was bursting out of it's sides.
Jocks were tumbling about with
''ghtful noise, and everything was
GIFTED up. He thinks the damage to
ne shipping was caused not so much

irving the ships repeatedly against
