by Emin PAsha, whose rescue or abduc-

interest in Europe snd America some
six or seven years ago.
The proposed advance OF British
Egyptian expedition along the Nile
from Wady Hslfs, on Dongols has been
in contemplation for year past.

Italians at Adowa has no doubt preci-

evidently believes that this defeat will
have depressing effect upon the pres

resources OF the Soudan and will not
rest until they recover the fertile re.

The plan of campaign will, it is said,
involve the use OF Ave black infantry

compiled at the State office by mimeo-

the Soudan will be conquered, province
by province, or rather, this is the
British plan. They will have, however,
very uncertain quantity to consider in
the opposition OF the Mahdists.
These fanatics have shown them-
selves terrible fighters, and previous
successes, with the experience thew
have gained in European methods {
warfare, will make their subsection q
task OF the first magnitude.

peculiarly fascinating to Europeans. &C.

have served in that strange country, and

To open up the country to the civil
izlng influences Of Christianity will be
agreat boon to tine people, who are held
in che most sbject bondage, and are
slaves to the most blighting supersti-
ton. Hence the course Of the army on
its march southwark will be watched
with deep interest by enlightened
people everywhere.
France will see in this advance an In
definite continuance OF the British hold
upcn Egypt and. OF course, will not
look kindly upon the movement. Rus
sia and Germany also will not probably
be in sympathy with the British, but,
apart from their selfish interests and
preiudices. they must admit that the
enlightened rule OF Christian nation
is far preferable in that benighted coun-
try to the government Of the Mshdi.

THE HABIT OF NAIL-BITING.
It Is Mark of Degeneration of the Nerv-
 ous System.

1t Is Mark of Degeneration of the Nerv-
 ous System.
 There has just been issued from the Paris press brochure which is creating a large amount of interest in French medical circles, both on account of it's originality and the experimental re- suits which it embodies It is from the pen of Dr. Edgar Berillon, so well known in the surgical world by reason of his prominent connection with the dead Charcot in the latter's hypnotic experiments, and at present Secretarie General de la Societe d'Hypnologie ct de Psychologist of Paris and medical in- spector of the state lunatic asylums. The work is scientific treatise on ony- cophagie, or fngernail biting, and con tains the results of series of observa- tions in the public and private schools of France, and extending through a period of more than seven years. At the congress of the French Association for the Advancement of Sciences, held at Nancy in 1886, Berillon first an nounced his observations on the habit Ol HdH siHu SluCC tlldG ulIIlC HdS been in almost continuous experiment.
 In his thoroughly scientific treatment of what the world has never before con- sidered worthy of prolonged or special study Berillon has arrived at results really remarkable. His experiments lead him to pronounce the habit far more widespread and pernicious than others promptly treated, and force him to conclude that, if not a disease itself, it is an unfailing mark of ineipient de- generation of the nervous system, which, unrecognized, may be productive of the most evil results.
