AN1mALcuLEs I'M WATER.-The idea entertain

ANIMALcULEs IN WATER.-The idea entertain
ed by most persons that all water whether found
in springs, wells, brooks, ponds, or cisterns, or
even that fresh rain water is filled with living
creatures, is as far as the microscope enables us
to ascertain, without foundation. Water is
compound of two gases-hydrogen and oxygen
and the existence Of anmalcules in it is altogether
dependent on certain causes, principally on it's
contact with vegetable matter thus, if you take
a bowl of water, and place a handful Of hay or
other vegetable matter in it,, few days the top
will be covered with a scum,s which, by putting a
small quantity under the microscope win be found
to be mass of animalcues, but is only of the
lower order, most of them being the monads; the
smallest of this class being minute that ninety
millions can swim about in one drop.

WOMAN IN JAIL FOR DEBr.-There is now
widow woman incarcerated in the Portland Jail
for no other offence than that of being unable to
meet her liabilities. The facts are these:
The husband of this lady died few years since,
leaving her about three hundred dollars. He was
ayoung man well known in this community, and
respected. Since his decease she has resided
with her aged and poor parents, and become re-
sponsible for the rent of the house. Gradually
the small amount left her melted away, and
finally when the rent bill came in she was unable
to pay it. She was sued, Judgment obtained, and
execution taken out. The usual bond to disclose
was given, and the time appointed, but, by very
natural mistake on her part, it was not made. The
consequence was, that she must involve her sure
ties or 60 to Jail. Like an honorable woman, she
chose the latter; and there she now is-a prisoner,
within the gloomy walls of that terrible building
Portland (JMaine) .argus.

fugitive apprentice under the provisions of the act
of Congress generally known as the Fugitive
Slave law. The usual process was had before the
United States Commissioner, and the case taken
into the United States district court on writ of
habeas corpus. Judge Kane, after hearing, gave
held to labor in one State under the laws there
of"-clearly included apprentices, and that to
give different construction to them would be ''to
discharge every apprentice in Pennsylvania that
chose to cross the Delaware, and every one else
where that repaired to that State, and refused to
return to his duty" The apprentice was re-
manded to the custody Of the marshal, and the
case returned to the United States Commissioner
