THE French expedition Around the

Societe des Voyages d'Etudes of Paris,
was 10 have started from Marseilles in
June Of last year, under the leadership Of
Lieutenant George Biard, of the French
Navy, but was postponed on account Of
the Rrsso-Turkish war. Now that the
war seems to have ended, the project has
been resumed, AMI Saturday last was the
da'e that was fixed upon some time asc
fr It's sailing from Marseillea. The tril
will last less than year, and two-third
of tbe time will be devoted to land expe
ditions, differing theirin from mere purel.

AFRICAN EXPLORATION has received a
fresh stimulus from the recent successes OF
Stanley. The German Parliament has
contributed SIS, ,0oe to the German Asso
citation for African Exploration, which
provides the means for carrying on an ex-
tensive expedition under Herr Roblis
This is intended TO traverse the Eastern
Sahara by way Of the oases of kufara and
wsjanga, and then to explore the water
shed between the rivers Shari, Benue, md
Ogawai. An important element in The e1-
petition will consist of conveyances capa-
Bile of being used either as carts or boats.
and an escort of twenty well-armed Euro
pesns. Another expedition under the su.
spices of the German Association is also
about starting from Loanodo in different
direction. DIR. Fisher is also about pro-
oeeding inward from Zanzibar, which is
the favorite starting point. The Belgian
expedition will leave the eastern coast OF
Africa for the Tanganyika. The Pcrtu-
guese expedition which left the coast on
the 25,h of October has not been heard
from. Missionaries, both Catholic and
Protestant, are also makiag earnest efforts
70 introduce their respective faiths into the
Inferior of the African continent, and their
warm srdor has received no apparent
check from the recent murder oftwop pros
ely ting adventurers at Ukareme,

One of those foolhardy projects with
which this country is occasionally startled
is now being carried out. Two men who
seek notoriety have started in a mere
cockle-shell 10 cross the ocean, and when
they land they will We able to say they
crossed in the smallest vessel that ever
made the trip. Such senseless endanger'
ins of life ought to be stopped by law. The
last time the project was tried it was by {
man and woman. She was very nearly
killed from exposure. The English news
papers very Significantly said that if th'
woman had died her husband would hav'
been arrested for manslaughter.

A BILL of the expenses Of the Louisiana
Commission in 1877 has been presented
l. foots up the neat little sum Of SS,95l y
This, when considered in connection with
the millions annually paid out by the gov.
eminent, may seem trihing, but when it is
analyzed the charges are enormous. They
serve TO show that men who travel at pub
lic expenre are always much more extra.
VACANT than when their expenses are ex.

DEATH ON THE RAIL.
The Sad Fate Of Billy Hammer.

Billy Hammer, . brakeman on the
third section of train No. l6 was kill
ed near the depot in Colfax about
one o'clock this morning. The en-
gine had been uncoupled from the
train in order to take water and " when
it backed down Billy was at his post
ready to couple the engine onto the
train when In some way he missed
his hold and was dragged about 100
feet. He was carried to the City Ho-
tel. DR.. Sanders and Ryan were CALI
ed but he was so horribly mangled as
to make it impossible to render any
aid and in about 2 hours, surrounded
by friends and relatives of this city,
his spirit was called unto Him who
gave 1t. His parents were summoned
by telegram aud arrived on q special
train at 5 o'clock.
Billy Hammer was about 2l years
Of age and was the son Of Dc. and
Mrs. Hammer, of Des Moines, and q
nephew Of Mr.. w. L. West, Of this
place, and formerly resided in Col.
fax. One week from to-day he was
to have been married to Miss Belle
Baker, of this city. He had rented q
house in Des MOines and his father
had made arrangements whereby
this was to have been his last week
on the railroad--but, alas, cold and
cruel Death has laid its icy hands
upon him and those who loved him
so fondly must now part with him
till that great day shall dawn. The
grief-stricken parents and friends
have the sympathy of the entire
community In this their sad bereave-
ment. a#
The remains will be taken to Des
Moines to-day. The funeral occurs
