FRIDAY A run, 4JTi. 1.S7IJ Body snatching, not for medical but for political purposes, is some times practised in .Russia tinder the authority of the government. Re cently a Nihilist, who had just heeii released from prison, died in hits own house, and his relatives made prepara tions for the burial, which was to take place next morning. In the night, however, the body nrysteriously disappeared from the house; and it was ascertained that it had been sur reptitiously seized by order of the au thorities, who apprehended a Nihilist demonstration at the funeral. Fraulein Wessely, an actress of Leipsic, being a great favorite with the students of that city, a photograph er whom the young men patronize largely, has conceived the idea of placing a veiled protrait of the actress beside the camera, at the moment when all is ready to take the impres sion, withdrawing simultaneonly the coverings of the instrument and of the picture. An expression of pleasure and amibility is the results, that has come to be considered a peculiar characteristic of photographs pro duced by this ingenious artist. Prof. Pancoast has been exhibit ing and explaining the Carolina twins to the students of the Jefferson Medi cal College, Philadelphia. They are the pair who have been widely shown as a two-headed girl. The professor considers them far more wonderful than the Siamese twins, who were two distinct persons, while these negro sisters have a single back bone below the shoulder blades, at which point .the spinal column branches like the arms of a letter Y. They were back to back at birth, but in learning to walk they twisted themselves to facili tate locomotion, and now stand nearly side by side. Experiments showed that when either was touched below the point of union both felt it, but above that point there was a separate sensitiveness. Dr. Pancoast thinks they will die simultaneously. Milwaukee lager beer is by many considered the best in the United States, and is generally supposed to be as pure as any. The Milwaukee News, however, has accused the brewers of that city, of using corn and rice very largely, in place of barley, a substitution that is said to make the beer taste as well less nutritious, less suitable for keeping, and less agree able to the digestion. In six months of last year, one brewing concern is shown by the books of the Internal revenue department, to have pur chased 546,213 bushels of corn, and 72,332 pounds of rice. Only five breweries, to judge from their reports, to the Internal revenue office, have confined themselves to the use of bar ley and hops, and even some of these are thought to have used rice and called it barley. Previous to the abolition of serf dom, the Russian nobles enjoyed throughout Europe the reputation of "being the richest and most liberal men in the world. In Paris, Vienna, and elsewhere they were in the habit of scattering their gold with lavish hand. The emancipation ukase of of 18G1 put an end to their preposter ous displays of extravagance. Now and then, however an aristocratic Russian, perhaps a lady, turns up in Paris to revive the memory of old times. A Russian princess has with iu the past few years been the rage in Paris, creating a world of gossip by tho costuness and charm of her dress .and jewelry, and by the artistic splen dor of her salon, which, during the whole of one winter, was decorated every Saturday with new wall paper, furniture, carpets, and pictures. Vvaddington, Gambetta, and other French statesmen, as well as ambas sadors and celebraties of all kinds, have been among the habitues of her salon. At one time, even the ancient ; Thiers was transformed into a vouny gallant under tho influence of this llUHiaii enchantress. Argument Enongk. The Argonaut, We do not believe there can be found beneath the blackest brow so ackest brow so ! sasrAM ugly a mug. with so mean its owner would desire order to spite the face that it does not adorn. Yet we heard a German at Duncan's nulls charge one of his fel low workmen with doing the same thing. He said; "I have not read dot constidntion. I vork in the Tyro mill. I makes lumber. I am a poor man, but I don't makes my money out of poor men. Rich men in San Fran cisco builds fine houses dot buys lum ber, dot makes the mills go, dot makes the railroad go, dot makes business go, dot makes wages go, dot makes money go. Yen money goes I get some, ven no money goes I got none. Yon go for Kearney. You bite your nose off to sbite your face. Ain't it." A keg of gold amounting to $12, 000 was lately recovered from a mill pond, where it had been hidden for fourteen years. A guide that was with Jeff Davis when he was making his flight through Georgia deserted the party upon arriving in Wilkes county, stole the keg of money and rolled it into the pond. On his death bed at the penitentiary where he rras soon afterward sent he disclosed the locality of the treasure. KEW ADVERTISEMENTS. To :tll Whom this may Concern.
