Attempts upon Queen yictOria's Tiff,


 The most blameless sovereign Europe has ever had-Queen Yictoria-has not been free from the danger of assassina- ton by lunatics. Her death conld pro- duce no change ill the established order Of the Govt rnment. She has barely the shadow of political power. If royalty were abolished, Great Britain could not be freer country than it IS. Yet the Queen has been three times shot at, once struck ill the face, once threatened with 8 loaded and with en unloaded pistol. The first attempt uFon the Queens life was made June 10, lS40, by Edward Oxford, a lad of IF. He fired two shots deliberately, but missed. His was much the same kind of a character as Guiteau's. He was half-crazy with longing for no- toriety. He was pronounced insane by a jury, and sentenced to be confined in a lunetic asylum during her Majesty's pleasure. John Francis, son of ma chinist in Drury Lane, fired at the Queen May 30, 1S42, from the very spot where Oxford had stood. He was but few feet from the carriage, which fort unateiy was driving at q rapid pace, and missed his aim. He was condemned to death, but his sentence was con- muted to imprisonment for life. The very day after this mitigation of punish ment became known, a hunchbacked boy named Bean made another attempt on the Queens life. He presented a pistol at her carriage, but was not per mitted to fire it. The pistol was loaded with powder, paper tightly rammed down, and some scraps of clay pipe. Bean was imprisoned eighteen months. An Irish bricklayer named Hamilton fired n pistol loaded only with powder at her Majesty May 19, 1649, on Con- stitution Hill, where two previous at tempts had been made. His sentence was seven years transportation. Robert Pate, 0 cashiered Lieutenant of hussars, struck her Majesty in the face with q stick May 27, 1850. His sentence also was seven years transportation. Arthur O'Connor, a boy of IT, presented an unloaded pistol at the Queen, Feb 29, 1872. He was whipped and imprisoned for a. year. The modified law, which authorizes whipping to be prescribed in the discretion of the Judge, is thought to have had the effect of discouraging attempts upon the Queens life.

Progress of Christianity.

The Rev. Dr. Dorchester delivered an address in Wesleyan Hall, Boston, on the progress of Christianity in the whole world, since 1900. Until the present century, says the lecturer, there was no trustworthy data of the worlds popula- ton. Prior to 1880, 1t was variously estimated from 642, GOO, 900 to 737, ,000,- 900. In 1850 it was reckoned at makes the present population 1,437,- 000,000 The progress of Christianity from the fourth or fifth century up to HOO was confined almost entirely to Europe. The nominal Christians in the world in the third century numbered 5,000, GOO; up tothe eighth century they had increased 30,000,000 in the tenth century, 50,OO0,00O; in the fifteenth century, 100, ,000, 900; in the last 300 years the increase has been 200, ,000, ,000, or as much as in the previous fifteen centuries. In 1880, there were 41O,- J00, ,0O0 nominal Christians. In 1500 there were 80, ,0OO, 900 Catholics, 20, ,0OO,- | 900 Greek Christians and no Protest ants in 1850, 116, 900, 900 Roman Cath ! plics, 10000, 900 Greek Christians and | r., 900, 900 Protestants ill 1880, the respective numbers were 209, 1000, GOO, SS,000, ,000 and 113,000,000 showing nn increase of 80 per cent. umong the Papists, 26 per cent. in the Greek church and 176 among the Protestants. The probable number of nominal Christ ians in the world in the year 2000 was
 stimated by Dr. Dorchester at from I.l 200, ,000, 900 to 1,950, GOO, 900. The pop ulations living under Christian Govern ments in 1900 numbered 100, GOO, 900 in TOO, 155. .000.

Here ;s something new in the way of ornamentatiun, Q salesman in large uptown iewelry store sand, opening a oox. Out walked a monster beetle, fully four inches in length. About it's body was solid gold band, locked by a tiny paddock, to which was attached costly gold chain, about two inches in length, fastened to pin. The beetles pack glistened in light, having been lreated 10 dress of gold, and as it lunbered along its long legs worked to- gether in curious fashion. It's shawl pin. You see the pin is used to fasten the face of Q shawl, or perhaps worn on the bonnet, the insect crawling a,onnd the length of the chain. They are perfectly harmless and not expensive. as they live on air-that is, they have never been seen to eat. This one was brought here to mount, which is very fine op, ration, as the legs and antennie Ne all SO delicate After all, there i. nothing objectionable about them, ex. ,ept the idea of having them crawl over you. They all come from South Ameri- a, and the oAly lot in the city is to be -aken to France, where the owner will

 there is nothing cruel about it, Gs they are bound loosely, and the gold has no effect upon their hard sides.
 In Brazil the fashion of wearing beetles
 $ carried to great extent. A we'll zEown resident has beetle with col
 ar of gold which meets at the top, and B thele ornameattd with diamond of great value. The insect has cage sur tounded by the plants among which it
 ives in its native state, and nothing is
 egloctel to make it as comfortable as ., ,oss.be. But the most popular insect used for an ornament in Brazil is a small phosphOrescent beetle. These are often worn fastened in the hair, and as the two phosphorescent or lght-giving spots are on the sides of the head, the black in sect of course, invisible, especially when in the raven locks of the fair Bra 2ihaus. Twenty or thirty of these bee -les will throw ont light sufficient to read by, and when arranged around the head in circle, or grouped over the forehead and held in place, the effect is beautiful.-Ne,o York Sun.

Our Public Domain,

The public domain of the United States, acquired by cession from the several States and by treaty from France, Spain, and Mexico, Texas and Russia, amounts to 2,894, 235.9 91 square miles, or about l, 1925, ,310, ,000 acres, and its cost was, in round numbers, $322,- 100000, of which sum the Government has received back about $200 GOO, ,000 for lands sold. Down to July, 1880, the Government of the United States had disposed, by sale, of about ITO, 900, 900 acres; by act of donation, 5000, 900 acres in bounties for military and naval service, 61, ,000, 900 acres for internal improvements, 100000 acres; by grant of saline lands, 560, 900 acres; for town sites and county seats, l50,000; by patent to railway companies, 45, ,000,- 900; canal grants, 4,000,O00; for mill tary roads, 1,300,0 O; by sale of mineral lands (since 1S66), 14S, GOO; homesteads, 56,0O0, 900 scrip, 2,9O0, 0,0O0; coal lands, I0,750; stone and timber lands (act of 1S7S), 21, 900; swamp and overiiowed lands given to States, 5000, GOO; for educational purposes, 7S, GOO, 900 under Timber Culture act, 9,350, ,000; Gradu- ntion act of 1854, 25, 600, 900.
 Mineral and timber lands are now our most valuable assets. The pasturage lands are of nominal value apart from the mineral underlying them. Our re- maining public lands, exclusive of Alas ka, were, in June, 1880, estimated AS follows Timber lands, a, GOO, G00 acres coal lands, defined, 5,530, 900 precious tal-bearing lands, G4, 000, GOO acres, but this area will be increased as the pasturage and timber lands are ex- plored lands in Southern States, agri- cultural, timber and mineral, 9, ,000, 900; lands irrigable from streams, 30, ,00a, GOO i; pasturage, desert, including certain lands in Indian reservations and bar rens, 565, ,000, ,000. The above is exclu- sive of Alaska.
 Sales of lands were first made in blocks of townships and of eight sec- tions, but soon in tracts of $40 and 160 acres, and later of 120, eighty and forty acres. The pre-emptioD act of 1S4l was a progressive step, giving preference to actual settlers, also permitting them to pay for their lands with cash or war rants. But the most important of all our land laws was the Homestead act of 1862. Down to June 30, 1880, there were 469,7 entries made under this act, embracing 55, 667, 049 acres, and patents were issued in 162, 237 cases, for 19,265, ,337 acres. The operation of the Homestead act produces no revenue tc the Government, the fees and commis. sion being but little, if at all, in excess of the cost of survey and dispositions.

Rcm9rkabie Escape.

John Kuhn, of Lafayette, Ind, had a very narrow escape from death. This is his own story: Zone year ago was in the last stages of consumption. Onr best physicians gave my case up. I finally got so low that our doctor said 1 could not live twenty-four hours. My friends then purchased a bottle of Dr. Wm. Halls Balsam for the lungs, which benefited me-
 I continued until I took nine bottles. I am now in perfect health having used no other medicine" From the above it is plainly evident that there is cure for consumption, even in the most hopeles cases, and that cure is Dr. Wm Halls Balsam for the lungs. Cures all coughs and colds. Cures all diseases of the lungs and chest. Cures pneumonia and sore throat, and is a sure cure for consumption, if taken in season 3

We desire to give this friendly word of warn ing to whom it may concern, that all persons who have been, or are now dealing in 8 prepa- ration called Clayton x Russelrs Celebrated Stomach Bitters," put upon the market by Adams & Co.,, of New York, render them selves liable to prosecution and damages, as said article has been pronounced by the U. s. Circuit Court, Southern District, New York, in dicision rendered by his Honor. Judge Blatchford, February, 1882, as being an imita- tion of Hostetter's Celebrated Stomach Bitters, and who granted decree of perpetual injunc- tion with damages, against the said Adams & Co. for violation of our trade mark in the prem ises The principle of this important decision applies with equal force to any article of bit ters, the labels of which bear general resem- blance to our trade mark, as well as to the re- filling of old bottles with spurious stuff, or selling in bulk any article purporting to be our preparation, and hence this friendly word of caution. We never fail to convict, as the coun- ty records of New Orleans, St. Louis, New York and other points fully affirm.
