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.

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

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.
