In an English "Blue Book" there rs
a statement of the average prices Of
black slaves sold in Egypt-1S70-1SS0-
from which it seems that the value Of
the human chattel is increasing. Thus,
in 1870 the price of a Nubian boy was
from GS to fl2 in 187677, from 910 to
ETA in 1890, from f10 to ZIG. Girls
are higher, ranging from 99 to f20;
adults from Gl0 to 925. Abyssinians
are somewhat dearer than Nubians. In
1870 boys cost from g10 to ZIG; now
they cost from f12 to G24; girls are
about so per cent. dearer, and adalts
fetch from EGO to ESQ.

The Original Aesthetic.

A New York dispatch says that Oscar Wilde
lectured to-a large and fashionable audience at
Chickenng Hall. He was dressed in black
dress coat, white vest extremely low cut shirt
with flowing white silk cravat, black knee
brooches, brown stockings and slippers He
chose. as his subject "The English Renais-
sance," which he said was the work of
esthetics. Decoration, he said, was n science
OF art, and all teachings would amount TO moth
ing IL tho workmen were not surrounded by
beautiful things. For II they did not see them
they could not make them. Art should not be,
as in the past, only contrast with surround
ing misery. In conclusion he said
"You have oil heard OF those two flowers
dear to the esthetics heart, the rose and lily
but we do not love them for the reason given
by Gilbert, nor for any vegetable preference,
but because they are the most perfect speci-
mems Of design-the rose, with its leonine
beauty, and the lily, the emblem Of chastity and
purity. Then why look further for the score,
Of life whom the secret Of life is out2"
