I ceased at the Exposures Made by the Press. LoNnose, Feb. 5. — The Tangier's press continues to call attention to the systematic and outrageous sales of young girls in Moroc- co. From the statements made it appears there are regular agencies in Paris and Brus- sels for the entrapment of girls for immoral purposes. The victims are lured to their ruin by seductive promises of lucrative situ- ations as governesses, seamstresses and do- mestic servants, and once within the domin- ion of the polygamous monarch they are von. table slaves, without any chane of escape from it degrading life of lust. In some cases English girls are first lured to Paris and ' then dragged; put on board ship and taken to Tangier, where they are sold to procurers, who carry them into the interior, where they are imprisoned in the harems of wealthy natives, Resistance is overcome by sys- tematic cruelty, and the lash plays an im- portant part in reducing the deluded girls to abject obedience. The Sultan is greatly incensed at the exposures made by the press, abel if it were not that he has some fear of foreign Consular interference some of the edi- tors Would be quickly introduced to the dis- agreeable mysteries of the bow-strine. • Hon. David Davis' Idea of Local Papers. Every year every local paper gives from 500 to 5,000 free lines for the sole benefit of I the community in which it is located. No other agency can or will do this.

Canada and the States. Hon, S. A, Richie, of Akron, Ohio, has delivered an address, in which he points out the advantages to the United States of com- mercial relations with Canada, Mr, Riulde says Canada imported $50,000,000 worth of American goods in 1885, whereas all South and Central Americen countries put together only took $64,000,000 'worth of such goods in the same time. In other words, forty-five millions of people to the south of the United States only took twenty per cent. more American geode than the four million to the north. This should open the eyes of Sena- tor Ingalls and the statesmen of his stamp who talk so fiercely of killing Canada by cutting of commercial rehations with as. Mr. Mollie, in his address, touches further upon the condition of the Dominion. He declares that our. imports and exports, per head of the population, are greater than those of the United States; that our railway mileage is, per head of the 'Population, the same as that of the United States, and that our growth in population since 1776 has been relatively the same as that of the Unit- ed States, The Republie commenced with a population of three millions, and it now has fifty millions. Canada at the time had , a population of 300,000 and we now have a I population of five millions. 11--egeoesee-r What They Say When They Slip Up.

On the very fahe of it there is not it tittle of tight or reason in thc. preposterous claims made on behalf of the Yankee fishermen, and if the United States fancy that it is the right and deeent thing to proelaim complete non -intercourse with Can- ada because the latter will not -Part with Ler birth -right when demanded in the present highwaymen fashion, and without the offer of even the old time " mess of pottage,' why then so be it!

Of course this threat- ened pressure is intended to make certain sections of Canada discontented and fOrce them to seek for annexation. There never eould be a greater mistake made.

Mice and Frogs. • That frogs have a formidable enemy in the common mouse is evidenced by the following incident. A correspondent states that he observed; 'a shorttime since, several mice pursuing some frogs in a shed which was overrun with these reptiles. The alacrity of the letter however rendered the attacks of the mice futile for a considerable period. Again and again the frogs escaped from the clutches of their foes, but only to be re -cap- tured, severely shaken, and bitten. he energy put forth by these reptiles wag' so great that theyactually swayed itheir cap- tors to and fro n their efforts to wrest them- selves from their grasps At length the wounds inflicted upon them rendered the frogs incapable of further resistance, and they were easily overpowered by the mice, which devoured a part of them.

Harper's "Easy Chair" for February has some very sensible and very much-needed re- marks on the excuse often made by news- papers for publishing the scandalous things that often appear in print,—that a news- paper is bound to give the news of the day, and that consqeuently if things happen they should be recorded and commented upon. The newspaper, it seems, reports, not in- vents, and consequently is not responsible if some of the items are very unsavory. The "Easy Chah," cuts the ground from under such excuses, in the following fa- shion :— " The sophistry lies in this, that all that happens is not news, and thatif it were no paper could publish it all, and consequently that every paper must choose. Thus the whole category of crimes and accidents in- cludes innumerable incidents that by the limitations of space cannot be, and by con- siderations of morality ought not to be, pub- lished. Of all that occurs, therefore, every newspaper must choose what it will print; and then, having chosen, it mustdecide how it will print it. The newspaper, therefore, has the whole responsibility, and cannot throw it upon fate or the necessity of the case. Fate does not compel it to print even a very small proportion of the incidents of the clay, nor the necessity of the case force it to print what it selects in a way to de- moralize the public mind. The newspaper may select any spot in the city of New York five hundred feet square, and whilein every such space there occur every day and every night incidents whose mere publication would create an uproar, the newspaper does not publish them. itis prevented by two reasons : one is the law of the State ; the other is the law of public propriety. It is untrue, therefore'that a newspaper must publish whatever happens. It does not and it cannot, consequently it must cheese froni the vast mese of ineidents that which may be considered to be of public importance. If details are given of horrible crimes and the trials of horrible criminals which pander only to the worst passions of the community, the reason lies not in the necessity of the case, or in the duty of the newspaper or in the right of the public, but in the choice of the newspaper conductor to pander to foul tastes, because, for whatever reasons, he believes such pandering to be primarily profitable." This is just about the size of it. Why pander to the vicious craving for the hor- rible and impure, which is so common? The newspaper man who does so, has not the slightest idea of it being his duty either to morality or to his. readers. Ho calculates on increasing his paper's circulation, and in order to that is willing as far as he is able to deluge the whole neighborhood with filth and immorality. Not surely in this way is the newspaper to become the pulpit of the future, or a great engine of public moral- ity." If newspaper men would only respect themselves, all this would soon have an end.

Hill's hardware store in Buffalo, Up to that time he bad visited Avon Springs and other places, and been attended by sev- eral eminent physicians, but had keen con- tinually growing worse. After leaving Mr. Hill's employ in 1853, his hip joint beeeme more and more ossified until, m 1857, he was unable to move. After that the dis- ease was very rapid, and for thirty years past he has been unable to move a sin- gle joint of his body. Elis appearance lying in bed does not indicate his condition. His features, although somewhat sunken, are ordinarily good. The only portion of his body over which he has any control is his lower jaw, which, he can move slightly.

Hogs have a particular antipathy to rat- tlesnakes, and are never harmed by the bite of sthe reptiles. A drove of hogs turned ldose on a farm abounding in snakes had, iu , a month's time, driven every one of the pests from the place. A correspondent de- scribes a fierce struggle which took place, near a Western town between a boar and a rattlesnake. . ! The two animale spent some time in skir- mishing about a willow tree, and. watching, each other. Suddenly the reptile rose in the air, and then, with a vicious hlss and rattle, struck at the boar, like a flash of lightning. The attack was evidently not unexpected. The boar dodged back and spade(' upon his haunches with surprising agility, and the snake's head shot past his snout. The tactics of the boar in backing around the tree, as he had been doing, were now ex- plained. The animal had evidently expected the rattler's strike to carry the snake clear into the creek, when the current would have carried it away. In this the boar was dis- appointed, for the snake, although long enough to have landed in the water, fell with a thump on the end of the plank cross- ing the stream. Instantly its adversary seized it by the tail, crunching the rattles with sickening violence. Turning with amazing rapidity, the snake struck the boar repeatedly in the head, but though the animal squealed with pain, he did not relax his efforts to trample his enemy under foot. At the same he made frantic efforts to ,get the raetler's body in his teeth. Twice he seemed to have a firm hold on the snake. Each time tlae rattler wriggled itself clear of the dangerous tusks, all the .time striking blow after blow upon nearly every part of the boar's body. The battle waged fiercely in this way for several min- utes. Finally the boar made another des- perate rush at his opponent, and this time his tusks passed through the snake's body. He held on like a bulldog and shook his head back and forth wickedly. The rattler writhed and flashed through the air like a whip -lash, in his efforts to as- sail some vulnerable point os the boar's ana- tomy ; but the animal clueg to him with a death -like grip, and, after a few seoonds' struggle, the rattlesnake's body was com- pletely torn asunder just above the middle. Even then the snake made several attempts to strike, but the plucky young boar dis- posed of his ugly antagonist in short metre, tearing the rattler's body apart with his teeth, and limdly stamping the life out of the hissing head. When the snake's body was examined, after the battle, there were fennel eighteen large rattles in,the tail, and as two or three II,IP4S have been destroyed by the boar's first °milt:eight, it was evident that the "seven - footer" of a reptile was an ohl one. Killed by a Pencil. A Columbia correspondent of the Atlanta Constitution writes.: C. H. Barber, a mer- chant of Florence, died the other day, from the result of it strange accident. One deer about two months ago, while standing m front of his store, he was approached from behind by a friend, who playbills's' threw his arms around Barber's neck. A scuffle ensued 111 which Barbees heaft was drawn down- ward and his right eye brought in contact with the sharp point of a small lead pencil sticking out of the friend's vest poeltet. The pencil, which was about an inch and a quarter long, penetrated the eye, and be- came so completely embedded therein, as to baffle the efforts of the surgeon to extract it. After remaining in the eye about six week's the pencil worked itself out, and it was then thought that, with the exception of the loss of the eye, Mr. Barbee would gaffer no other inconvenience, but in it few days it became evident that the lead had poisoned the optic nerve, and soon after the brain became similarly affected. Barber lingered in great agony until yesterday, when he died. The autopsy showed that the brain had literally rotted away, • There are now about one hundred and twenty thousand acres of land. planted with tea in the Wand of Ceylon, and it has been demonstrated that the country is capable of produeing a geetator yield of leaf per acre than any other country in the world, and that ifs tea cnn command higher prices than any other tea in the market, Mrs, Sprigging thinke that it certain young lady of 'her acquaintance has no sense of proprietorship" because when the funeral wee passing she had her sleigh driven riaht throtigh the eentre of the " cereave," Day and Night Puring au acute attack of Bronchitis, CC Net1t1)K,1 1 ICSS41ti71Cli .117, ttlQ .oulrerer.
