Cape Town, Dec. 18.—Bright's Di ease, the disease which a trustworthy report states has attacked President Kruger, of the South African Republic, is considered in- curable here. Ib is an affliction of tile Kid- neys, and doctors state that it is invariably fatal. The disease was first dignosed as a distinct disease by Dr. Bright, from whom it takes its name. • It is underatood that the remedy has been discovered for Bright's Disease in America of recent years called Dodd' s Kidney Pills, and reports reach Africa to the effect that cures are being made in England and Aus- tralia by the same medicine. It is unlikely that the Dutch ef the Transvaal are acquainted with Dood's Kid- ney Pills, however, they being very slow to take up with drugs that are new.

POOR C, 0 P Y An American Countess. , Among American ladies who wear British coronets, there is one Lady Egmont, form- erly a Miss HoWell, of South Carolina, who has had an !interesting career, Bahr a writer. She was= for a long time •a _bar- niaid at the Sloane Square station on the London Undergound Railway, and at 'the time she married the cousin of the late Earl of Egmont had doabtless no idea of ber cousin succeeding to the title. Before sit- ting, as he now does, in the House of Lords, he occupied several humble positions, among others that of a oomtnon sailor, a member, of 1..•he fvletropoliten fire brigade and a janitor of a suburban town hall. He only inherited the bare title, and has now next to no money to maintain his position. The late earl left everything he possed,a very considerable estate, with an ancestral place, to his wife, who was also a woman of h m- ble birth—in fact, !formerly in dome tie ervioe in the Egmont household.te idowed countess reeently married ag i , er second husband being a cousin of 0 in - Orland baronet. • r !

And as for obscenity he de- etests it with a loathing 'that cannot be e pressed in words. He was alweys so, any years ago, while he was a watch oi eer, he happened to be serving under an a miral who was distinguished in his pro- f ssion for his bull -dog courage and his ✓ ugh language. He was of a. -class that is k wn as "a jaeky officer," meaning one w 'ose manners savor more of the forecastle t an the quarter deck. One day "the old man," as the chief is known in sailor par - la ce,1 became upset about something, and t reed loose upon everything in sight, and i his characteristic: way. Well, Dewey w s in sight, and aftet standing it a few m nutes,'he walked up to the raging corn - m nder of the fleet, and saluting said: "Admiral —, I vvill not allow you or a y man living to address me in the langu- a e you are using." The captain of the flagship and nearly all the officers were present and heard the con- versation.. The old admiral turned red and th n purple. He did not utter a word for one minutes. Meantime Dewey had left th group and returned to whatever it was h had in hand. "Tell Mr. Dewey I wish to speak to ol him," said the admiral to an ensign. . Dewey's going to catch it now,' whisp- ✓ d the officers who heard the order. n a moment came Lieutenant Dewey.

So far as can be learned the a b or has never given any other evidence of 1 terary talent than that contributed in this one marvellous production: The bairnies cuddle doon at nicht Wi' muckle laucht an' din ; Oh, try an' sleep ye waukrife rogues, Your !althea 00111111' in ; They never heed a word I speak, I try to gi'e a frown ; But aye I hap them up an' say, "Ob, bairnies, cuddle doon !"
