Sir John just
received from M. John’s New Bruns
wick, states that a part of tho crew of
the American Whale Ship Antelope,
1c9t4.11 October (itli,
bad arrived 011 the steamers Wolf
and I.ion. The dicers of the Ante
lope bring interesting information of
discoveries made by C. F. Hall, re
specting tho Fraukliu expedition. Mr.
Hull has in his possession a gold watch,
some silver spoons, and other relics,
supposed to have belonged to the Frank
lin party. He has also learned that
the remains of some of Franklin's men
were lying under a boat in Committee
Hay, where they had been placed by
the natives after death. The natives
would not permit Mr. Hull to go on to
examine them, hut as several vessels
w ill winter* in Repulse Hay, it is be
lieved Mr. Hall will secure assistance
and push his way to where the remains
are situated.
No More Hair Markets.— A curious
decree has been issued by the Municipal
Council of tho department of Correge.
That august assembly met last month
in high council, and decided that the
practice so prevalent of late years for
the young women of Normandy ami
of Brittany to sell their hair in the
market places of their respective vil
luges, was highly immoral, and therefore
passed a statute forbidding the practice.
The custom lias been tlint those who
wish to dispose of their eKevehtre should
wear bright ribbons ill their chignon,
which wi re synonymous with the words,
“ Look at my hair, it is for sale.” Hair
vendors were then privileged to go up
to the girl, untie the ribbons, examine
the hair, and bargain as to its price.
As soon as the knotty point was de
cided, the purchaser, nrjjted with scis
sors, cut otF his merchandise, leaving
but a few short curls in front.
Banking Explained. —Old Mr. I.c
fevre's illustration of the theory of
banking to a customer, whose account
was almost always overdrawn, certainly
rivals the best treatise on that subject.
Watching the customer, lie caught him
one day at the counter, and said to him:
‘ Mr. Y., you and jl must understand
each other something better than we
now seem to. lam afraid you don’t
know what banking really is ; give me
leave to tell you. It's my business to
take care of your money, but I liud you
are always taking cure of mine. Now,
that is not banking, Mr. Y.; it must he
the other way—l'm the banker, not you.
You understand me now, Mr. Y., I'm
sure you do.’’
Queen VicroitiA Buying Egos.—
One forenoon last autumn, as Queen
Victoria, many miles distant from her
Life Guards, was taking a solitary walk
along a piTblic road in the vicinity of
Balmoral, she met a country woman
carrying a basket of eggs, with whom
she entered into conversation. Iu
reply to a question put to her, the
basket-carrier said she was going with
her eggs to the place —a name given to
the Balmoral by the Highlanders, to
distinguish it from any other place in
the world. “Do you get a good price
for your eggs?” inquired her Majesty.
“Sometimes,” replied the woman, “hut
we aye get the best price when the
Queen comes.” On this her Majesty
offered to purchase the contents of the
basket, and tendered a golden sovereign
iu exchange. “I connot break it, my
leddy,”—meaning that she bad not
change enough. “O, never mind,” said
the Queen ; “if you cannot break it you
must keep it whole. Take your eggs to
the plane, and tell the people there that
the Queen has paid for them.” Tho
hon»st woman started hack with up
lifted hands, aud, with joy and surprise
pictured iu her face, exclaimed—“ls it
your ainsel, Mistress Albert? Is it your
aitisel?”
The End of all Things. —Rev. Dr.
Cummnigs, we see by the latest literary
announcements in London, is about to
put to press another book, entitled,
“The sounding of the Last Trumpet, or
the Last Woe.” The Doctor in this
work kindly postpones the day of doom
till 1870. As all his predictions hereto
fore have been melancholy failures, so
we may humbly hope that the one he
now puts forth is equally wide of the
mark.

JKiller.
Opinions of the Press, Clergy, Etc.
will make a few abort extract* from
the many Testimonial* ire have received from
time to time, unsolicited.
From Editors.
Thfc N*w York Examiner, says :
IN . ry mother and housekeeper must often
act as a family physician in the many ill
nesses ami accidents that occur among chil
dren ami servants. For mauy of these cases,
1 have used Davis* Fain Killer, ami consider
it au indispensable article in tho medicine
box. lu diarrtnea. it has been used and
effected cures. For cuts and bruises, it is
invaluable.
The Editor of tho Christian Advocate ,
says:
It is a real pleasure to us to speak fnvoinbly
of this article, known almost universally to
he a good and safe remedy for burns ami
other pains of tho body. It is valuable not
only for colds in the winter, but for various
summer complaiuts, and should he in every
family.
A. D. Miller,'Editor of Me**wger, Glens
Stalls, N. Y., says :
aiiero is no medicine at the present day 1
highly as Perry Davis* Vegetable
I have used it in my family
for yeawßran every instance it has proved a
I tested its qualities
to-day burn, und fouud it all
that could be desired.
Ml. John Jackson, of the Calais Adver
tiser, writes :
I know it to ho nil it is recommended,
having used it in iny family six or seven
years.
The Salem Observer says;
No article of medicine ever attained to
such unbounded popularity and extensive
diffusion. It has penetrated to every part,
even the most remote, of the known world,
hearing with it its healing influences more
potent than those of the spices of “Arahy
the blessed.*’ We are informed by our
principal druggists, that they sell more of
this article for exportation than of any or
all others, and that the demand is constant}’
increasing.
The Cincinnati Nonpareil, Nov. 14, 1819,
says :
Seine of our most prominent citizens and
business men strongly recommend it to the
public as nu article of great merit and virtue ,
and that they never knew any medicine to
become so deservedly popular in so short a
time.
From Clergymen.
Rev. J. C. Boomer says :
I have used Perry Davis* Pain Killer with
great success in cases of cholera infantum,
common bowel complaint, hronehitas,
coughs, colds, etc., and would cheerfully
recommend if as a valuable family medicine.
Rev. J. G. Stearns, says:
t consider it the bosi remedy I ever knew
for dyspepsia.
Rev. Edward X. Fuller says :
I have witnessed the beneficial effects of
your Pain Killer in cases of dysentery and
cholera morbus, within a few months past,
and would cheerfully recommend its use to
such as may oo suffering from similar dis
eases, as a safe nnd effectual remedy.
Rev. A. Webster, Editor of tho Christian
Era, writes:
I have used your Pain Killer for mnnv
years in my family with much satisfaction.
