Migration.

We are accustomed to think that tho
United States Is the one absorbent
point of emigration in the world, and
that it bids fair, like AarOn's serpent,
TO swallow all the rest. Most Of or
readers will probably be surprised 10
learn that there Is q country which,
considering the size, is drawing in moro
foreigners than ours, and that country
is France. NJ. Lcroy-Bcaulieu has
recently published in l. ErOuOmj%'e
FrGHcai% the statistics Of the increase
of alien population III France. In the
first quarter of this century there was
no immigration into that country.
France was for the French alone. In
1857 a small but steady stream Of
foreigners began to set in. Their pro-
portion in 1866, however, reached only
1.33 per cent. 10 the whole population;
in 1881 the proportion had reached 3
per cent. In each year the Increase
reaches 10000 NJ. Beaulieu calculates
that If it continues t. increase in tho
same proportion as the last two yeas
for the rest of the century one-f0urth OF
the adult population Will be aliens.
The large proportion Of this immigra-
of it are, according to NJ Bcaulicu, the
abundance of capital, the high wages
and the fact that many of the trades arc
left unoccnpied by French boys and
men. The same cause accounts for tho
large immigration into our own country
of skilled workmen. It is a very adj
vantageous condition of affairs for the
foreign skilled workmen. But how
about tho native Frcnchmcn and
Americans, whose work, wages and
prosperity are thus suffered to fall into
alien hands? The French Young man,
says NJ. Beaulieu, is too ctfeminate to
learn a hard steady trade. He goes to
America to cook, TO dance, to play some
light role in life, while the German
comes to fill his place at home. Pre-
clselv i'll the same way the Young
American makes himself bookkeeper
or salesman while the skilled trades are
filled by Germans and English.-Nel0

General Dead.


New ORLEANS, La, Feb. 20.-Gen. 7.
q. I. Beauregard, the last of the gener-
ais of the Confederate military service,
died this evening at 1890 O'Clock. The
first symptoms OF the fatal illness man
lfested themselves about two weeks
ago, when he was attacked By a com
piiCatlon of diseases which threatened
heart failure. The first physicians
of the South were summoned to attend
him, but their only hone was TO be able
to prolong the Generals life for
a time. He manifested some improve
ment under their care, particularly in
the last three or four days, when he
WAS about to leave his apartments and
take short periods of exercise in the
grounds of his residence He dined
with the family this evening, and after
dinner remained in the library with
his sons and grandchildren until $50,
when his son, Gen. Beauregar escort
ed hun to his apartme Mt and left him
with his nurse, who had been in
attendance since the commencement OF
his illness. He dropped off to sleep
easily and seemed to be resting well.
One of the nurses went TO his bedside
few minutes after 10 O'Clock, and was
Mortified TO lind him in the death strug-
gle. The members of the family wer e
summoned at once, but before they
reached the cham Der the end had come.
The direct cause Of death was heart

Shawl OF Persian Cats Hair.

The Duchess of Northumberland is
the possessor of a shawl which was pre-
sented by Ming Charles Y. of France
and which cost half million of francs.
IL is manufactured from the fur of a

this cats fur is so extremely fine and
elastic that a single hair is scarcely per
CeptIble to the naked eye. The spin
ming and weaving of this material and
the production of a single shawl like

The sudden changes in Weather in the
latter part OF the winter and early spring
are a source of colds and coughs. This
season is a particularly dangerous one for
persons with weak lungs or of delicate
constitution. a slight cold is likely to be-
come a serious one. and the cough that
follows is the one great cause of the many
deaths from consumption in the early
spring. Never neglect a cold or cough.
Keep reliable remedy on hand and check
the first cough, that may lead to consump-
Iion. AS such remedy the medicine
called kemp'S BaIsam is strongly recon-
mended. For every form OF throat and
lung disorder, including the la grippe
