Elwin and Arthur Arnold. -So extensively ls the adulteration of tea | now carried on In China, that Mr. Medhurst, the British consul at Shanghae, recently wrote th it fifty-three thousand pounds of willow leaves were in course of manipulation at one ( port alone, to be mixed with tea for shipment,, at the ratio of from ten to twenty per cent. -Fashionable bats and bonnets for ladies differ only in name. The same article, when worn well torward. on the head and the strings tied behind, becomes a bat; and If poshed. far enough back to show the coronet braid and the Infantile curia brushed over tbe I forehead, with the strings, and tied under the j chin, lt becomes a bonnet. -Monala ur de Paris-that is to say, the headsman of Paris-ls a fine-looking man, who always dresses In fault lesa broadcloth on the scaffold.

A brick mason agreed to build a lieuse and charge $6 per thousand for laying the "brick. When he came to measure the brick he measured all the openings, windows, ? doora, Ac., as aoUd work, making his bill j. $2000 larger than lt would have been had he only measured the solid wall. The man for . ?hom the work was done refused to pay this $2000, and the mason brought suit to force tbe payment, pleading the custom of brickmasons In his fhvor. The court deolded that he had no legal right to charge for laying brick that were never laid. This decision 1B Important 11 to builders and contractors, as other State courts would be likely to follow tbe decision and precedent set by tbe New York court. -The high prloe of coal In England bas already affected the number of ocean-going | steamers leaving tbe Mersey. It is also under? stood that one Of the oldest and most Influen? tial of the steamship lines bave already made arrangements and entered Into contracts to take all their coal for use on board their ves? sels on the American side; In faot, they will shortly .commence to load at Picton, where trie coal can be put on board at eight shillings per ton, tho present price of steam coal at Cardiff being thirty-five shillings per ton, which ls certainly a great difference wben compared with the quotations at Picton. Tbe same firm have. ateo determined to lay np, ^ until better times, four or five of their steam era, and many other smaller firms intend to follow the action of the larger ones, until the price of coal will permit tbem to run their steamers to advantage; the enormous advance in the price ot coal, combined with the in? creased rales of dues for the passage of the I Boes Canal, have bad a most detrimental effect on the number of steamers leaving Liverpool for the east, via the canal. The number of steamers at present in berth, for India.and China, is remarkably small. -The New York Express sa>s: "The tesll-1 mony of Miss Anne Keenan, produced at the | Forrester examination en Wednesday, Is cer? tainly remarkable. The witness has an extra? ordinary memory. She never saw the prison-1 er but once, and then only obtained a single glimpse of his features. It was dark at tbe time, and yet this one glance conveyed such a strong Impression to her mind that at the end of two years she Is prepared to come torward and swear distinctly that tbe man she saw j under these circumstances is undoubtedly WUUam Forrester. What attracted ber atten? tion, she asserts,was the pale face, wUd-looklng | eyes, and peculiarly nervous manner of the man, leading her to think he was crazed. Miss Keesan ls evidently a lady ot strong j convictions, and her further cross-examina? tion win be awaited with no little interest. The detectives who bad charge of the For? rester case hint at other "surprises" they L have la store. Miss Keenan la not the only 11 person, it is Bald, whOsSaw the prisoner in th? ( city ar-iew; hours previous to the murder. There , ar* some further developments expected In reference to the "dog" the iron Instrument with which the asr. sasslnatlon was committed. The real name cf this tool has never transpired, but among Bhip caulkers, by whom the In? strument is used,, it . IB known by another appellation, .Why ;tbe ? clatter has :,.4iot. transpired is one of :those mysteries the po? lice so delight lo, Forrester doea not appear In tbe least afflicted by the certainty with which the authorities are producing the links. In the chain of evidence against him. His de? fence is, as ls well known, an alibi. He( claims he was notln -tbe-oity on the night of-j the murder,'and unless lie falls to establish the truth ol this assertion, his case falls to the; ground. He has any number ot witnesses, but; he has associated with none but the most dis-; reputable characters, and His lrom their ranks that he must endeavor -to sustain an alibi.: Their evidence, the police say, will weigh as nothing against that to be produced by the au thoritles;#The appearance of Miss Keenan conclusively proves one thing, and that ls, that not only a weman, but even detectives can keep a secret, and that, too, as long aa two years." _ . " The Indla-Knbber Game. In the comiog Presidential election the India-rubber game 'ia to be played. For j years there bas been only ono day upon which to ca3t the vote, the well known first Tuesday after the first Monday in Novem? ber. But this fail the old principle of voting until you get tired goes into effect Voting for Presidential electors is to be- J gin in Louisiana on Monday, the 4lh of No? vember, be taken up by the other States on Tuesday, the 5th, and continued by Texas throughout Wednesday, the 6th, Thursday, the 7th, and Friday, the 8th; thus consum? ing about one entire week in the operation, the occasion of this elongation of the, elec? tion is written in two recent acts of Con? gress. By that approved Jane 1, 1872, and entitled "An act to prescribe the time for "holding the election for the electors of | "Presidentand vice-President in the State "of Louisiana,"it is provided "that in the! "State of Louisioa the election of represen-, j "tatives to the Forty-third Congress, and "the appointment of electors of Pr?sident! "and vice-President for said State, shall be | "on the first Monday in November, in the "year eighteen hundred and seventy-two; "bat thereafter Bach elections and appoint? ment shall be on the day designated by "law for the other States." This year a Radical victory in Louisiana on Monday may materially assist the Radical candidate in the next day's election in the other States; thanks to the telegraph, which will convey tho news to every breakfast-table in the | country, and hence the above quoted excep? tional law. The second act of Congress J stretching the Presidential election after the 5th of November, as the Louisiana act, stretches lt before, is one approved May 23, 1872, and reads thus : "That if by the now "existing laws of any State the election "commencing on the Tuesday next after the ?first Monday in November, 1872, for the "purpose of choosing ele cl ora of. President "and Vice-President in such States, shall be "required to be continued for more than "one day, then said election shalt be con? "tinaod tho number of days required by tbe | "laws of such State." The occasion of this itatute is that peculiar provision of the re sonstructed Constitution of Texas, which re-1 laires that in all general electioca ia that itate "the polls shall be opened for four j 'days, from 8 o'clock A. M. until 4 o'clock 'P M. of each day." Ordinarily Texas has teen quoted aa an anti-Administration Jtate, especially since the handsome Demo iratic victory in the Congressional election if 1870; bat if trotting the blacks for four | lays from county to county and poll to poll an win the State back, this fall will see it { lone. From Monday to Friday, rrom the 4th o the? 8th-both inclusive-of November, leginning with Louisiana and winding up pith Texas, the Presidential erection is to ontinue this year;, and a very pretty adap ation of carpet-bag electoral elasticity the ob ls. _ Lrgentlne-The Thirty Pieces of Sliver. The Northern papers announce that ex ?overnor James L. Orr, of South Carolina, tas been oflered the position of minister to ] be Argentine Republic, declined by General White, of Illinois. The Former Proprietor of The Mercury In New Orleans. The New Orleans Picayune, in ita issue of .he 19th instant, contains thu following : "We announce to our readers the accession of Colonel R. Barnwell Rhett, Jr., to the edi? torship ot the Picayune. Mr. D. C. Jenkins will be associate editor." The Picayune is now owned and published by a joint stock company composed of a large number of the leading mercantile firms In the Orescent City. Hard Times In Kngland. On this side of the Atlantic, where wages are high and work is plentiful, it is diffleu?t \ to estimate properly tho distress which falls upon the crowded and crowding peoples of Europe when the harvest rails and the cattle disease spreads over the country. When to this is added an unparalleled advance in the cost of fuel, the laboring classes are pressed down to the ground, and the combination, of troubles taxes the fortitude of both gov? ernment and people. That the situation in England, at this time, is gloomy in the ex? treme, is shown by the following extract | from a leading article in the London Times ot the 6th: Theve ls a gloomy report from the rich grazing land of Yorkshire-no mere rumor now, but a formal Teoort, alter examination by the Inspectors ot the tiast Riding and the Privy Council-that the rinderpest has broken out and destroyed a herd of cattle. As we have already had the rinderpest, and may be said to know the worst ol it, particularly In this metropolis, we might think this only an afterclap, or at moBt a passing shower. But lt la a serious matter to have fresh reasons for fearing that the rinderpest may have taken root in this isle, and established here one ol' those centres where lt ls said to Incubate and diffuse Itself. It is even nwe alarming to know that lt may be easily Introduced and be found even where there is no apparent channel or Intercourse lrom the infected regions." We ha re already the foot and mouth disease in most parishes in England. Though not very formidable, lt has caused much trouble and expense, and contributed to raise the price of meat. Beef and mutton are, toe, believe, dearer than tliey have ever been since the Peace of 1815. rae- potato crop threatens to prove In ibis Island almost as a utter failure as in 1845. Several correspondents have suggested modes j I realizing the crop or getting something out if lt; but, in fact, farmers and laborers are > ery generally giving lt up as an almost total ons. A lew weeks ago it was expeoted that, at all events, we should have a good wheat crop, it'only the skies would allow lt to begot '.ni The* harvest weather .proved'all : that could be desired, yet the uniform report from aU quarters ls {wau tim yield will . b&rseme 25 -per\cenf.- below the aver?ge. The stalk/lhey; say, ls thin and weak, and the ear, conse? quently, not full. The crops of apples and other iruits have also generally failed. We seem to haw a dearth before usy.and one that. | 7oill set in before the end of the year. To this must be added the high price of coal. The cost of living cannot but keep blgb. . There ia some reason for thinking that the I potato.crop will not torn ont as badly as the Times expects,; but the extent of the cattie disease is certainly underrated. .Throughout Lancashire the fanners are thoroughly alarmed at its rapid progress. In the Preston District, which includes nine j of the most important agricultural sections of northeast and west Lancashire, there! were, during the week ending the 5th, 192 fresh outbreaks of the disease. The official retaros also announce that 546 farms are affected by.it, and that 3110 head of cattle, 1364 sheep, and 30 swine are on the sick list. As compared with the previous week, these figures show an increase of 47 out? breaks, 121 farms, 549 cattle and 482 sheep. In the Salford Hundred, which includes seven or the chief agricultural districts of South Lancashire, there were" during the [ same period, 40 fresh outbreaks; the dis? ease prevails on 130 farms, the animals affected being 460 cattle, 348 sheep and 21 swine; showing an Ulerease of 30 in the number of farms affected by it, and 111 io the cattle under treatment. Following ont the American idea that a set of resolutions will heal every trouble, public meetings have been held in London to protest against the "exorbitant rates" charged for meat This will do as much good as some of the legislation proposed by members of the South Carolina General As? sembly, who wanted to establish the rate of wages at two dollars a day, and to compel every man to lend out aH his money at six per cent, a year. But its an ill wind that blows good to nobody. The American farmers will And a ready and profitable market for their surploB produce, and the railways and shipping merchants will share in the benefit. Ic is quite possible that the dearness of coal in England is mainly due to artificial causes. This, at ali events, is the inference drawn from the following letter, which is published in the London Financier: There is very little difference between the Eosltion of the collieries there abd with IIB in lancashire. Everywhere I notice toe same thing-the collieries lull of orders and old contracts (many o? them still at very low rates,) and everywhere the men more inclined for recreation than work, and determined not | to allow any stocks to be put upon the banks of the ott. In fact, they seem to manage mat? ters so" well that where they know their mas? ters have pressing contracts they take care that they are kept In arrear. Under such cir? cumstances there ls not a colUery (proprie? tor who will enter Into any new contracts, even at the present greatly enhanced prices, and the ?time ls rapidly approaching when a great many industrial establishments will be stopped for want of coal-say, when their {?resent coal contracts are at an end. In many ostances lt has ceased to bo a question of I price. In some localities coal is not to be had In quantities at any price, and often, when a manufacturer wants one hundred or two hun? dred tons a week from a colliery, It ls only as a great favor; and because he has been a good customer for many years, that twenty to fifty tons a week are given him. As to taking on new customers, even if they come with cash In hand, no coal proprietor thinks of looking at them. This Is about the real state of things lo all the coal districts of England, and, I he? llere, also of Scotland. Ttae Late King of Sweden. The cable announces the death of Charles XV, King of Sweden and Norway. The late King was born In 1826, and succeeded hie lather, Oscar,-In 1859. He was known as one }f the most patriotic and enlightened mon? archs in Europe, and as possessing consider? ?le talent and excellent artistic tastes. He published a volume of poems, of more than ?verage merit, in 1869. In his reign Sweden lias enjoyed profound peace. During the Schleswig-Holstein war the people of his little kingdom sympathized deeply with the wrongs Df their neighbors, Denmirk, and would have been ready at a word to have taken sides with herugalnst the mighty Austria and Prussia, lt was well tor the prosperity ot Sweden that her king was too? wise to declare war at that time. _ Sea-Slckneas. The English papers are again discussing, as they have been at intervals for the last twenty years, a proposed plan for preventing sea? sickness. The well-known Bessemer, whose method of manufacturing steel has made his name everywhere famous, Js just now repre- j sented as the Inventor of the familiar idea that sea-sickness would be Impossible were the cabin cf a ship to be swung on pivots, so as to maintain its level in spite ot the mo? tion of the vessel. It ls by no means certain that, even could this invention be but in prac? tice In such a way as to render the motion of a vessel imperceptible*, lt would prove a sure J preventive of a sickness so greatly Influenced, as ls eea-slcness, by the imagination. In point of fact, however, the proposed swinging cabin would not render all motion Impercepti? ble. It might maintain Its level when the ship rolled or pitched, but nothing could pre? vent it from rising and tailing perpendicularly with the ship. Ol all the motions of a ship at sea; this ls decidedly the most sickening, and until some new invention can render lt innoc? uous, people will continue to be sea-sick in splte;of Mr. Bessemer.1 fLtaai Notices.

M. to 7 P. M. : RHEUMATISM AND NEURALGIA. In BU arthritic com plain ta, as rheumatism, gout, neuralgia, Ac, this practice ls almost perfect. The most intense pains are almost instantly re? lieved, enormous swellings are reduced, limbs which have been contracted and stiff for years are relaxed. Oases of twenty, thirty and forty, years' standing have been cured by me after ali other means have failed. A great accomplishment ls my triumph over pain by which I can often, in a few moments, soothe and carry off the most excruciating Buf? ferings, ir this system did nothing more man to relieve paln.lt wouid stand superior to any other system extant. CATARRH. Stopped-np Head, K anning or the Nose, constant Hawking and Spitting, constant Blowing of the Nose.

I am dally treating all affections of the ear with the most gratifying resalta. Some who have paid aurista nearly i loco without benefit, bave been enred by me in a few weeks at a moderate ex? pense. MERCURIAL DISEASES. Mercury, injudiciously used, has oiled me earth with wrecks of hun .anny. Thousands suffer from Its effects who have been unconsciously drugged by their physician.'. It ls vain to attempt the care ofthemsjorlrj of diseases while lt remains In the body. Although I bave heard or several so called antidotes for mercury tn the human body, I have never yet Been a physician who could eliminate lt from the system. I can satisfy any patient or physician that I can absolutely abst ract mercury, lead, zinc, and other mineral pulso m in every case. CANCERS.
