Below -will be found a lew para graphs -which -will illustrate to Ameri can newspaper publishers the fact that it is much plainer sailing to run a periodical in this country, -where t.lifi nress is free in fact, than in the old conntry, where freedom of espres sion has limits that are far short of license. A constitutional monarchy, or a republic built upon the ruins of a monarchy, still savors of despotism and the "divine right." "The police of Berlin have lately discovered in that city a clandestine printing office, from which have emanated many pamphlets and broad sides reflecting upon the royal family and prince Bismarck. The master-printer, Karl Karklinnis, has been sent to prison for two years and nine months." "It is reported from Constantinople, that the grand vizier has promulgated a decree forbidding the publication of any morning journal. Only those issued in the evening will be allowed to appear." "The Paris prefect of police has issued an order which, says the Typo-logic-TucTier, will give satisfaction to all good citizens. It is to the effect that in the future no street sellers will be allowed to shout out in pub lie anything more than the title and the price of books, pamphlets, pic tures and engravings, of which they may have to dispose." About S4.150.000 have been sub scribed to build a railroad in Africa, between the lower falls of the Congo river and Stanley Peel. The project of building this road, which will cover the distance of two hundred and sixty two miles, was formed by the king of the Belgians, whose interest in African exploration and in the abolition of the slave-trade in Africa is known throughout the world. He found warm ally in Mr. McKinnon, the great Scotch ship-owner, an immensely wealthy man said to be the largest individual ship-owner in the world and another in Mr. Collis P. Hunting ton, president of the Southern PaciGc railway, who has invested $50,000 in the project. This scheme is said to be actuated more by sentiment than bv motives of gain, for the projectors believe that only by such means as opening up the Congo to travel can the fearful traffic .. .. -.. . i-jliivkiH-i. Olllt CIS Ol the route have been made, and maps and profiles oC the contemplated work prepared, although, as yet, the probable cost of the road has not been estimated. If the project is success ful, an immense impetus will be given to commerce m a region now con trolled by the Arab slave trader. The latter, after collecting all the ivory he is able to buy, secures negroes to carry it, and on arriving at the east coast sells loads and carriers. It is the opinion of most practical men that the only way to effectually do away with the horrors of the African slave trade is to open up the interior to travel and western commercial inter course. A woxderfuii invention or discov ery in the preservation of fresh -meats has come to light, in fact, if the state ment made by the lialtimore Trade in regard to this latest advance in keeping perishable articles are sub stantiated, a complete revolution of the canned goods business will result, and the xepensive "processing" method now employed be done away with entirely. It is stated that a Ger man has interested some Baltimore capitalists in this new scheme, and tests were made with meats such as are used in every household, and after having been placed in an air tight compartment made on the inventor's plan and subject to this treatment for ninety-three days, the meat was taken out in the presence of numerous med ical and other scientific experts, who pronounced" the food as good and wholesome as on the day it was put away. Thus the meat was kept for three months, without ice, salt or cooking. This effect was produced by introducing an artificial atmos phere into the compartment, expelling the air collodion, combined with other volatile articles, was the means used. It is said that most satisfactory results were also obtained from beef, shipped on ocean steamers to En gland, and preserved by this new pro cess. The statement i3 also made that fruit and vegetables are just as well kept as meats, and are in much better condition when removed than when kept in cold storage. The Trade will further investigate this matter if possible. Missouri is one Jof the few states in the Union which continues to pay bounties on wolf scalps. A St. Louis paper explains that during the war men were so busy hunting men that they paid no attention to wolves, which increased so rapidly as to make sneep raisiug impracticable in some of the southern counties. In five vears. from 1869 to 1875, the state paid Sl.- 500,000 for Tvolf scalps. The St. Louis editor says that it will take another million and a half to exterminate the wolves of south Missouri. Ax English wife suing for divorce alleges in her complaint that "the de fendant does not come home until 10 o'clock at night, and when he does return he keeps plaintiff awake, talk ing, sometimes until midnight." In another case the complaining wife de clares that the "defendant is guilty of cruel and inhuman treatment in this when he suffers financial loss he lays it to the plaintiff and censures her in bitter terms." One of the delegates to the Olympia convention brought with .him fifteen cases of Bourbon whiskv to aid him in ma aruuous duties, and made a column speech justifying and explain mg his course. If he does the square thing in dividing the whisky the rest of the delegates will doubtless accept the apology. In China one can always borrow money on the strength of a son, but nobody would advance him a cent if he had a dozen daughters. The for mer is responsible for the debt of his father for three generations. The latter is only responsible for the debls of her own husband. Ex-Gov. Swixeford, of Alaska, doesn't like adverse newspaper criti cism, and tried to beat editor Meyers, of the Juneau Record, on the 5th for antagonizing his 'ighness. "When Alas ka editors-begin to be honored that way the territory will get a big ad vertisement. HE SENT IT EAST. For a year I was troubled with j.ains iu my back and side, and headaches, the re sult of liver and kidney trouble. I was attracted to Joy's Vegetable Sarsaparilla, by the startling testimonials in the pa pers. They seemed .so practical I was in duced to try it, knowing that as it was purely vegetable, it would do no harm. It acted as n gentle laxative. After the second bottle my pains and aches disap peared. Jt did so much for me that I .sent several bottles to my family in New Jersey, who also took it with the most satisfactory results. Master Caulker, foot clay, San Francihco. Don't Mention the Iirirrs. It is not only a wise and happy thing to make the best of life, and always look on the bright side for one's own sake, but it is a blessing toothers. Fancy a man forever telling hU fam ilv lmur !. .n.' ,-r-t v ' u ,:"' sermon on this subject was uneonsei ously preached bv a child one dav la.st fall: A man met a little fellow on the road carrying a basket of blackberries and said to him: "Sammy, where did you get such nice berries? "Over there, pir. in the briers." "Won't your mother be glad to see vou come home with a basketfull of such nice, ripe fruit?' "Yes, sir," said Sammy, "she always seems mighty glad when I hold up the berries, and I don't tell her anything abont the briers in my feet.' The man rode on, resolving that henceforth he would hold up the berries and sav nothiug about the briers. Merit Wins. We desire to say to our citizen1;, that we have been selling Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption, Dr. King's New Life Tills, Uucklen's Arnica Salve and Electric Bitters, and have never handled remedies that sell as well, or that have given such universal satisfac tion. We do not hesitate to guarantee them every lime, and we stand ready to refund the purchase price, if satisfac tory results do not follow their use. These remedies have won their great popularity purely on their merits. .1. W. Conn, Druggist The Price of Lop?? at Seattle. In consequence of the light snowfall last winter and the succeeding drouth, logs on the upper river were unable to come down. During the past two weeks logs have risen from $o.50 to $7 per thousand, and may go higher. It is not likely that the price will again fall as low as last spring. Post-J n telUyenner. IS. Boils and pimples and other affections arising from impure blood may appear at this season, when the blood is heated. Hood's Sarsaparilla removes the cause of these troubles by purifying, vitalizing, and enriching the blood, and at the same time it gives strength to the whole sys tem.
