THE CURSE OF AFRICA.
Efforts to Suppress Slavery and
Liquor Traffic.

LONDON, June 14.-The French are
making really honest effort to sup
press slavery within the sphere OF their
influence in North Africa, and
Cardinal Lavigerie believes that
slavery will soon be extinct
in Tunis, where all slaves
have already been declared free, and
the selling, buying or keeping of slave
is punishable by from three months to
three years imprisonment. The pur-
chase of slave labor at Zanzibar for the
so-called Congo Free State goes right on
however. But Joseph Johnson a Brit
ish traveller, writes that gin is as much
the curse of Africa as slavery; that ''in
marching through some of the native
villages of the Kru coast one finds a
kind of hades peopled with brutalized
human beings, whose punishment is to
be possessed with yer-ending thirst
for strong drink" Gin and brandy. he
says, are depriving the Africans Of
whatever native virtues they possess.
The gin and missionaries both come
from England.

MEAT FOR ENGLISH JEWS.

LONDON. June 14.-For considerable
time there has been protest among the
poorer Jews in England against the
high--almost prohlbitive- which
they have had to pay for their
meat as compared with the price paid
by their Christian Deighbors. The mat
ter has more than once engaged the at
tention of the Jewish administrative au-
thorities. But the difficulty with which
these gentlemen had to contend was
the fact that the cheap English meat
was chiefly foreign mutton, and that the
sheep were not, Of course, killed in
accordance with the Jewish rites. In
order to meet this difficulty two shock
etimux were recently to BuenOs AyreS
for the purpose Of killing sheep there
and preparing the meat according to
Jewish rites. A telegram from Buenos
Ayres to day states that the first cargo
OF this meat has left for London, and
that arrangements have been made for
the regular conveyance OF similar car
goes.
