Ho1NET ARCHITExTURE.-We strike
off the following chip from the letter OF
a correspondent in Adelaide, Austria
LA: I secured a curiosity in the shape
of a hornets nest that has boen built
in nv bedroom. 1t is built of clav, ,
and was stuck against the wall at the
hack Of the room, and is about the size
of a breakfast cup. A single hornet
was the artifcer, and he seemed to
work at it very hard. He was nearly
a couple of inches long, but very slim,
the thin centre Of his body being near
" a quarter of en- inch long, which
made him look as if he had met with
an accident, and had had the tail end
Of his body pulled nearly off. He was
a formdable-looking fellow, but did not
seem at all incl ned to molest us, and
we did not moddle with him or his nest
till the nest was apparently flushed.
The nest consists Of several cells about
an inch long and three-eighth9 Of an
inch wide. in which the hornet lays her
eggs. and into which she stores spiders
and moths to serve rs To- for the grubs
The cells are comp 'etely built up, and
the whole was covered over with lit
lie excresccnces, for the purpose, as
L suppose, of deception, that the nest
might look like mere clod of clay.
- We have here several varieties in.
sects similar to wasps and no nets, but
they all appear to be solitary in their
habits, and do no, trouble us either by
their stings or by eating our fruit.
They are particularly troublesome,
however. in consequence of their build
ing their nests in all sorts of places
where they are not wancd' They are
very partial to ke,>holes, the little
hollow places behind books on the
shelves, folds in cutains, SC, and a
friend one day, on putting on a J 'ckot
which had lain on a chair in his room
for day or two, found one of their
nests in the sleeve. .-HOuScholl Words.

THE HAREM AND THE VEu.-Among
the later items of news from Constan-
tinople, which appear in the AHgeme'"e
Zeitung, the paper so greatly tavorc
by the distinguished regards of Louis
NAPOLEON, i, one to the effect that the
Sultan had determined to pension of
all his wives, except one, who is to bear
the title of Empress. In connection
with this grand moral reform, there is
also another move on the board Of Turk
ish social life, which cannot fail to
have rather startling etfrct, and
which is, that all Turkish momcn are
to 90 unveiled in public. 1T is char
acteristic enough in the sex ads the

to, that this rumor was received III

What i Live For.

] live for these who love me,
Whose hearts, are kind and true;
For the heaven that smile above me,
And awaits my spirit too;
For human ties that bind me;
For the task by God assigned me;
For the bright hopes left behind me,
As the good that can do.
/ live to learn their story
Who've have suffered for my sake,
To emulate their glory,
And to follow in their wake;
Bards, patriots, martyrs, sages,
The noble of all ages,
Whose deeds crowd History's pages,
And Times great volume make.
/ live to hold communion
With all that is divine;
To feel there is nnion
tTwixt Natures heart and mine:
To profit by affection,
Reap truths from fields of fiction.
Grow wiser from conviction,
And fulfil each grand design.
live TO hail that season,
By gifted minds foretold,
When men shall rule by reason,
And not alone by gold;
When man to man united,
And every wrong thing righted,
The whole world shall be lighted
As Eden was Of old.
! live for those who love me;
For those who know me true;
For the heaven that smiles above me.
And awaits my spirit too;
For the cause that lacks assistance:
For the wrong that needs resistance;
Fo the future in the distance;
And the good that can do.
