How TO GET RICH.

nv THE BARD OF THE EAsToN HALL OF FASHION
At this period when the cry is,
Times are very hard, indeed!
'Twould be charity to offer
To some men what more they need.
Some advice as ID the method
By which money may be made;
And when purses are replenished,
How therein it may be stayed.
A few plain rules, Poor Richard gave once,
Will, if followed out each day,
To competence, believe me,
Surely lead you on the way.
Let industry be, in whatever
Work you undertake, your guide;
With industry, let honesty,
In all pursuits, walk side by side.
Don't indulge in dainties ever
Though denial cost you pain,
If BY doing SO, you cannot
Save one penny Of clear gain.
Calculate all costs beforehand,
Husband health and strength the while,
(And procure your garments always
From the store of r. c. Pyle.).

Made Clothing and piece goods ever seen il

Conflict between two Boa Constructors

Conflict between two Boa Constructors.
Two large rock boa constructors, be-
longing to WoMBELL's at present at Ply
mouth, were, during the hours of exhibi-
ton, placed in glass case for the pur
pose Of being fed. A live rabbit was put
into the case, and one Of the boas imme-
diately made for the prey. The rabbit
however, eluded the frsngs of its enemy
BY a sudden jump, and the enormous
snake, instead Of dealing its deadly blow
on the poor rabbit, fastened on the other
boa. which, finding itself assaulted. imme.
diately assumed the defensive 10 the most
determined manner. Boa No. 2 struck
No. l, by which it had been assaulted
with its frightful fangs. The struggle
was nov fercely maintained on bott
.ides. The two monsters writhed ant
struggled in one anotbers grssp, and
both seemed intent on pressing BY its con
strictive coil the life out of its opponent
This struggle was at last terminated By
the Keepers, with the assistance of sever
al gentlemen, but not before one of tht
combstants was SO seriously wounded tina
fears are entertained that the consequen
ces may prove fatal.-Londo'a Morning
