In the present apprehension of hydrophobia,

son, as the presence of small abrasion of the
lips would most assuredly subject the parts to
inocuation. If the wound be ragged, the edges
may be taken off with pair of sharp scissors.
The wound must then be thoroughly cauterized
with nitrate of silver, (unar caustic,) being sure
to Introduce the caustic into the very depths of
the wound, so3that 1t will reach every particle of
poison that may have nsinuated itself into the
flesh. If the wound is too small to admit the
stick of caustic, it may be enlarged by the knife,
taking care, however, not 10 carry the poison
into the fresh cut, which can be avoided by
wipipg the knife at every incision. Nitrate of
silver is most powerful neutralizer of specific
poison, and the affected part will soon come
away with the slough, no dressing being neces-
sary. except perhaps olive oil, if there should be
much inflammation of the parts"
lfthe above plan be pursued, the patient need
be under no apprehension as to the result, but
make bis mind perfectly easy on the point. This
is the course generally pursued by all the vete.
rnary surgeons Of Europe, and there are few of
them who have not some time in their practice
been bitten by rabid animals. Nevertheless, we
never hear of their having suffered any bad ef-
fects from such accidents.
If lunar caustc be not on hand, the wound
may be scared with red not iron, which will an.

Mr. Blaine, i- -'.oing his able and scientific
article on this subject, very justly remarks:--

and judgment"

comparatively poor, finds its synyathies dying
out as bis golden stores accumulate. Of the
dangerous power Of wealth, in making men
worldly and selfish, moral aud religious writer
thus speakes:-" What rational being would
desire to grow rich, with the likelihood that, as
tie treasure of gold and silver of this world in
creases, the richcs.sf goodness and truth will
be gradually consumed by the kindling Of the
flame of worldly love, with ever-incrcasing in
tensty9 And is there little likelihood of snch
result? Let the sad records OF Christian
chuches resolve this question. If watchful-
ness be ever nj cessary, it is especially so for
the rich. 1t is hard for rich man to enter the
kingdom of God: and unless he lay hold reso-
lutely on the aid Of Omnipotence, through which
alone he can be saved from his peculiar temp
tations, he must perish
This is strong language; yet it is a voice of
warning that may well be needed. The poor,
too. have their especial temptations, which, if
yielded too, are quite as soul-destroying as the
temptations of the rich. Envy, discontent and
hatred of those who ale more favored, are quite
as fatal to moral health and happiness, as the
most absorbing worldly love-

WATER THROUGH LEAD PIPEs.-We are
Frequently told Of the deleterious effect upon the
system, of water which passes through lead
pipe, but only occasionally are we made sensi-
BILE of the extent of the danger. Several days
ago gentleman living few miles out Of the
city, caught a couple Of trout and placed them
in trough, the water of which was supplid
through lead pipe, intending to keep them
there. In less than three hours they were both
dead. Suspicious of the reason of this sudden
DEATH he determined to make another trial, and
in the trough another trout. The same result
followed in less time, and he made third ex-
pertinent. The result was still the same, and
he considers it settled fact that trout, ma
tive OF the pure, sparkling stream, cannot live in
a lead-lmpregnated water. If such water is poi
senous enough to kill fishes, it cannot be without
its destructive effects upon the human system

Miss Leslie on Slang.

'There is no w.t. says the author of the Be-
havior Book, ins lady to speak OF taking
snooze,' instead of nap--in calling panta-
looms pants OR gentlemen gents,'-in saying
of man whose dress is getting old, that he
looks seedy.' in aluding 10 an amusing
anecdote, or diverting incident, to say it is
rich.' All slang words are detestable from
the lips of ladies' We are always sorry to hear
young lady use such word as poklng,' when
she tells of having been engaged in a certain
dance too fashionable not long since; but, hap
PLY, it is fast going out, and almost banished
from the best society. To her honor be it re-
membered, Queen Victoria has prohibited the
polka being danced in her presence. How can
genteel girl bring herself to say, Last night
| was polking with Mr.. Bell or Mr.. Cope came
and asked me to polk with him. Its coarse and
ill-sounding name is worthy Of the dance, We
have little tolerance for young ladies, who, hav-
ing in reality neither wit nor humor, set up for
both, and, having nothing Of the right stock
to 60 upon, substitute coarseness and imperti-
nenee mot to say lmpudence,l and try to excite
laughter, and attract the attention of gentle.
men, by talking slang. Where do they get it?
How do theyIpick it up? From lew newspapers
or from vulgar books? Surely not from low
companions? We have heard one Of these Ia
dies, when her collar CHANGED to be pinned awry,
say that it was put on drunk-also, that her bon
net was drunk, meaning crooked on her head.
When disconnected she was foored' When
submitting to do thing unwlingly, she was
brought TO the scratch Sometimes she did
thing on the sly She talked of certain great
vocalist singing like BEAST She believed it
very smart and piquant to use these vile ex-
pressions. 1t is true, when at parties, she al
ways had half dozen gentleman about her;
their curiosity being excited as to what she
would say next. And yet she was woman of
many good qualities and one who boasted of
having always lived in society,"

Old Civilization.

Many shallow philosophers entertain the no
ton that man commenced his e ,istance as a
wild savage of the woods, and that his progress
has been step by step to his presen, elevated
position in modern civilization. No man enter
tertaining such opinions can retain them after
reading Layard's Nineveh aud Babylon, work
resenty republished in excellent style by the
grea. American House Of Harper g. Brothers of
this city. AT time far anterior to that of his
torical record, excepting what we have in the
Sacred Scriptures, there were races living and
dwelling in Asia, who were highly civilized, and
who were acquainted with sculpture, achitec-
ture music, and civil policy;a race who built
splendid palaces and adorned them with some of
the choicest works of art, of kind which have
been thought by many.to be but recently dis
covered. The saw, the shovel, and axe, instru-
ments in general use among all nations now,
were also used by the serfs of Nineveh even
the speaking trumpet was known in those days.
In the illustrations of this book there is repre-
sentation of the mode by which the ancient As
syrians moved heavy bodies. A colossal winged
bull is represented to have been placed on a
sledge having rollers, and drawn by great bodies
Of men pulling ropes. Another body of men
are represented as assisting with levers, and Mr..
Layard remarks that this was was the plan he
employed himself, to remove the same piece Of
sculpture, (which is now in the British Museum.)
The old Assyrians were acquainted with the art
of making twisted rope, an art of which their
descendants are utterly ignorant. The builders
of the Assyran palaces employed large slabs OF
alabaster, on which are representations of cap
tives drawing these huge slabs, many of which
are believed to be the forefathers of the present
race of Jews. But however skllful they may
have been in moving large stones, it would no
doubt have done them good had they been per-
mitted to see how we Yankees make frame
houses travel through our streets.
! the inscriptions on alabaster slabs and blocks
discovered by Layard, have been translated by
Col. Rawnson and DR.. Hincks, and corroborate
the correctness Of the Bible, and what Is very
remarkable, the translations Of the stone writings
agree exactly with the sacred text in stating the
amount of gold, 80 talents,) taken by Senache-
rib, from Hezekiah, King of Judea. A chapter
of intense interest to men of science in this
work. describes the discovery of arched drains,
vases, and kettles Of copper; bronze bells, bronze
cups ivory and nother-of.pearl studs, fit for the
shirtIbosom of modern beau !; a bronze strainer,
&c., in short, the Assyrians appear to have been
better acquainted with the making of bronze
vessels and figures than the moderns. Glass
bowls we're also discovered, but what is more
interesting, is some picks and saws made of iron
This metal was long supposed to be unknown
to the ancient Asiatics Among glass articles
discovered was rock crystal lens. with oppo

The VOICE OF CoNsCIENcE.--W What does

but one aim is noble and worthy of an immortal
spirit, and that is. 10 become the friend OF God
so that the soul may wing her way over the
grave without fear, without dlsmay, without con-

About Snakes.

A paper was lately read before tho Boston So
cieiy Of Natural History, from Dr.. w. J. Bur-
nett, on the character of the rattlesnake. The
doctor had been experimenting on two or three
specimens of this animal, and announces the
discovery Of numerous embryo poison fangs in
the jaws of the snake, Immediately behind the
outward fangs. The use of these hidden weap-
ons of destruction appears to be to supply the
place Of the biting fangs when they get broken
off or worn out in service. 1t also appears that
the long fangs two in number) which are used
in inhcting the bite of the rattesnake, are nat
urally shed every few years, when they are not
injured by accident or wear, and the reserve
langs are sufficiently numerous to meet the worst
emergencies. From minute microscopic exam
nation of the structure of the teeth, DR.. B. con
cudes that there are canals in each lang, onlq
one of which conveys the poison to the wound
Respecting the poison itself, the doctor remarks
as follows:
"There is good reason for the belief that its
action is the same upon all living things, veget-
abes as well us animals. 1t is even just as fa
tai 10 the snake itself as to ther anmals,fo DR.
Dearing informed me that one Of his specime MS
after being irritated and annoyed in its cage, il
moving suddenly, accidentally struck one of it'
fangs into his own body, it soon rolled over ant

then, we have the remarkable, and perhaps un
ique philosophical fact, of liquid secreted di
rectly from the blood, which proves deadly wheI
introduced into the blood from which it was de-
rived ~
In order to discern by the aid of the micro
scope the operation of this deadly agent on tht
blood, DR.. Burnett stupefed one Of the 6erces
of his snakes by dropping chlorotorm upon hi
head.
"Twenty-fve or thirty drops being allowed
10 fall ON his head, one slowly after the other

in few minutes he was wholly under this agen'
He was then adroitly seized behindi the jaw

English and American Railroads.

A writer in the Times directs the attention OF
the public to the immense disproportion existing
in the number of casualties upon the railroads
of New York and those of Great Britain. The
number of persons killed and injured on the rail-
roads of this state during the last year, wos sir
or seven times greater, in proportion to the whole
number conveyed, than in the United Kingdom
