The ToRPEDO.-Under the auspices of the
Navy Department, Captain John Ericsson
and NJ, Asa Weeks are now maturing their
particular experiments which are, it is be-
lieved, destined to outdo all past achieve
ments IN the torpedo line, and the time is
probably not far distant when a perfection in
tin. construction and of thfs instrument t
shall render the pracsibility of further naval
warfare out OF the question.
This will, of necessity, reyolutionize the
present system of warfare between civilized
Powers; and we may, therefore, at an early
day, learn Of the beginning Of necessarily i'm
proved methods in national economy, and,
let us hope, better international policies than
have hitherto been mutually exercised, as C.
rule, by the nations of the world.

magic. The place dc Ia Concorde
and all along the Champs-Elysees es
and the boulevards were crowded
with a good natured multitude.
There was some faint attempts at
illumination, and the shops on the
various boulevards were glittering
with their precious wares as usual,
and so ended the opening day of
the Exposition of 1878.
Though thousands were disap-
pointed in the pageant the import
ance of this days work upon the
permanent welfare of mankind
throughout the world no living man
can estimate. Its influence reaches
away into the ages to CONS affect
ing the destiny ct millions yet un-
born, in whose experiences may be
realized the golden dreams of the
prophet and the sage when the
children of men in every land shall
join in the anthem sung by the
morning star.
OF the tremendous magnitude of
the building, I have not yet had
time to speak, or of the splendid
collections of art; the wonderful
creations OF mechanism, the gorge
Gus beauty of the grounds, and the
untold marvels that enmesh your
steps like the net of tabled enchan-
tress, of these at the present time,
| can only make passing mention.
Its immensely no mortal mind can
grasp as whole. So weary and
worn tonight, l lay down my pen,
but tomorrow | shall take it up
again, and proceed to the fulfill
ment of the task which / laid out
for myself two years ago at the
opening OF the Centennial Expos
itior in Philadelphia aud which, if
| can fulfill to the satisfaction of my
readers, / shall esteem no sacrifice
too great. For the next six months,
day by day, / shall wander over
these wondorous halls, and en-
deavor to tell as best l may the
story of the marvels that | have
seen. To me it will be no less a
duty than a continuous labor of love,
and trusting that the satisfaction
which | experience in seeing may be
shared by those who shall follow

Investigation discloses the fact that the
lady reported in the associated press dis
patches about August 10, to have died in
Chicago, after two weeks use of some re-
puted remedy for corpulency, had not taken
Allsn's Anti-Fat, but had used a prepare
ton put up by regular physician in Luz
zerne, Pa. Allan's Anti-Fat is manufactured
In Buffalo, N. Y, by the undersigned. We
have already sold over 100000 bottles of it.
1t has therefore been taken by thousands,
and we challenge proof that it has ever
harmed anybody, unless the reduction of
obese persons from 20 to 60 pounds, leaving
them healthy and strong, is considered a
misfortune. Furthermore, we hereby offer
So, 600 reward for evidence showing that it
contains poisonous or injurious ingredients.
We also offer So, 600 if we can not prove that
it has reduced numbers of persons as stated
herein, and always without injury. 1t is
said lie will out travel the truth any time;
but we trust that those newspapers that have
misled the public by saying that physicians
attributed the lady's death to the use OF
AntI-Fat (which is only put up by us, the
term Anti Fat being our trade mark J. will
correct the false impression they have con-
veyed by publishing this refutation.
