Vegetable SERPENT.

According to some Italian journals a new
organized being has been discovered in
the interior Of Africa, which seems to f,rm
an immediete link between vegetable and
animal life. This singular production has
the shape of spotted serpent 1t drars
itselfalong the ground; instead of a head
has flower shaped like bell. which con.
tains viscious liquid. Flies and other
insects, attracted by the smell Of the Juice,
enterinto the flower where they are caught
by the adhesive matter. The flower then
closes, and remains shut till all the trison
ers are bruised and transformed into chyle
The indigestable portions, such as the head
and wings, are thrown out by two aspiret
openings. The vegetable serpent has
skin resembling leaves white and soft flesh
and instead Of a bony skeleton, cartla
ginous frame filed with yellow matter. -
The natives consider it delicious food.

A Happy temperament.

The Albany Knickerbocker looks on the
bright side of life's diarama. 1t has a
cheering word for everybody. Here is one
of its brevities:-Life is made up of chang
es. A moment ago patch of sunshine
rested like smile upon our paper, and ev-
erything around was bright; now the page
is overcast with shadow So in the affairs
of life. To-day hope sings in our path,
and the bow ofpromise spans it as an arch
ofgold;to morrow disappointmentsits with
in theheart, and lowering skies fall like the
tresses ofangels around There isnothing
steadfast in this life,no anchor that is move
able fixed the sands Of Time.
The waves of chance and circumstance
are stronger than all the cables of love, or
interest or hope, and our barks drift about
forever upon them, like lost souls wander
ing increasingly upon the banks of Styx.-
Life is full of vicisitudes and changes, ,ev en-
as the sea is full of pearls, Happy is the
man who can adopt himself to all crcum.

shine or shadow, buta tempered brightness
that can be compared only with the rays o.
twilight when the sound Of bells is in the
air, and rest upon him continually.
