The portrait of Benjamin Franklin
on the one-cent stamp, in imperial ul-
tramarine blue, is after a profile bust
of Rubricht The head of Jackson on
the two-celt stamp, in vermillion, is
from bust by Hiram Powers. The
Washington head on ths green three
cent stamp is after Houdon's celebrated
bust. The head on the five-cent blue
stamp is that of Zachary Taylor. The
Lincoln profile, in red, on the six
cent stamp, is after bust by Volk.
The seven-cent stamp, in vermillion,
gives the head Of Stanton after pho
tograph. The head of Jefferson, on the
ten-cent stamp, in chocolate, is drawn
from life-size statue by Hiram Pow
ers. The portrait of Henry Clay, in
neutral purple, on the twelvc-cent
stamp, is after bust by Hart. The
portrait of Gen. Scott on the twenty
four-cent stamp, in purple, is after a
bust by Coffee. The head Of Hamilton

trait of Commodore Oliver Hazard
Perry, in carmine, on the ninety-cent
stamp, is after Wolcott's statue. The
style in which these adhesive stamps
are printed, and the clearness of out
line of the several portraits, as well as
the artistic excellence Of the engrav-
ing, reflect credit on the head of the
postoffice department, Mr.. Creswell, un-
der whose authority they were executed.
The seven, twelve and twenty-four cent
stamps have been retired from use.
The new five-cent stamp will be por-
trait of Garfield, from the photograph
of which the Queen had a copy, and
which was approved by Mrs. Garfield.

A certain Chicago attorney, who has
been quite jealous in behalf of the
gamblers, does not seem to- be held in
very high regard by Judge Smith. A
case came up the other day in which
the former was counsel. AT the time
of the call he was out of the room.
So Judge Smith made an exception to
his general rule, and waited a few min
utes. Tired of walking, the judge
said: "Does any one know where Mr..
D-is?" The clerk responded that he
"could not be far away, as his over
coat lay on chair" "That will do
as we'll as himself; go on with the case, "
said the judge.-Ex.

Egyptian News.

New YORK, Oct. TO- Advices from
Cairo, Egypt, state that friend OF Ara
bi Pasha, Abdul kerim Pasha Ell kahar,
will next March visit America to make
preliminaries for the emigration of some
of Arabs followers to this country.
This gentleman Is perhaps the most
highly educated gentle nan in the East,
having translated the New Testament
into Arabic and written III French the
best book that has ever appeared against
polygamy. He is the owner OF the
nrettiest little palace on the Nile. At
Cairo he moves in the best European
society. and is OF friendly terms with
the King of the Belgiaus, the Prince OF
Wales and other noted personages.
For a number of years he has been Pro
fessor of Greek and Vice President OF
the Cairo University, in which town he
is az well known for his thoroughbred
Arabian horses a. for his learning.
CAIRO, Oct. lO,-Arabi Pasha be-
Iieves bis life In danger. There have
been certain incidents which might de-
moralize the soldiers guarding HIM.
One of the khedive's attendants has
been heard to say that he would like to
administer to Arabi cup of bad coffee.
and the khedive is reported to have
remarked that he and Arab could not
live in the same country.
When the rebel prisoners were de.
livered to the Egyptian authorities the
English insisted that they should be
allowed legal assistance. The fgyp'
tians contend that this condition does
no. bind them to permit the engage
ment of foreign counsel. The question
will be referred to the Foreign Office.
The indictments against the rebel
chiefs contain three counts-tirst. In.
stigating massacre second, directing
the burning of Alexaudria. and, third,
abusing flag of truce.

country has suffered deplorable
loss. and the Republican party
mourns for one who consecrated
a noble and heroic life to the
yindication of its great purposes.

a law excluding the Chinese by

proved by a Republican Presi-
