Woman's Curiosity.

An instance of wOman's curiosity
and the fall therefore, has just leaked
out. Miss LOtterie Crank" a popu-
lar young lady of this city, and some
friends, went the exposition, and the
party wandered to the poultry de
partment. There, covered up, was
exhibited two choice specimens of red
bats, and the public was invited to
lift the curtain and see them. 1t was
natural that bats should be in the
dark, and Miss Lotterie Crank wanted
to see them. Her curiosity was
aroused, therefore she raised the cur
tain, and there saw displayed two red
brick bats. Tableau!

The most valuable testimony given before the
Congressional committee on immigration in New
York thus far In the course OF their inquiry Is that
OF superintendent Jackson This gentleman has
Tor many years presided over affairs at Castle
Garden, and Is thoroughly acquainted with the
condition and needs OF the persons who are landed
there. He has the reputation, moreover of
being . conscientious officer. The statistics
he presented were simply startling. Think
OF busy seasons, when from four to nine
thousand Immigrants are set ashore every
day at this one port, TO say nothing OF
those who come into the country by way OF Bos-
ton, Philadelphia, New Orleans, san Francisco,
and other cities used as Independent termini for
steamship lines ana the never-ceasing tide across
the Canadian and Mexican frontiers! 1t requires
lively Imagination TO grasp the idea, and 1t is
hardly wonderful that, among so many, the gov
eminent should allow few to evade its scrutiny
who ought 70 be faced about and sent back by the
next ship. Mr.. Jackson's idea that the head
money tax ought TO be increased seems TO be a
good one In some way the steamship companies
should be made 10 feel that they are taking a re-
sponsipility when they accept the patronage
OF an immigrant A larger head money tax, to be
forfeited In every case where pauper or a crirni-
nal Is brought over, besides the penalty OF being
required TO carry such a person back without
charge, would do something TO help matters; but,
back OF all that the carrying companies do, or
neglect 70 do stands the outrageous policy of GER
