attempt to bite him unless in self de-
fense. On two occasions / almost
placed my foot upon snake that was
concealed in the long grass. The
creatures were both poisonous, and
each rose and drew back his head as
though to strike; but fortunatelyiI
did not move a muscle, and the snake
in a very few moments lowered has
head and glided away; one was II a
large cobra, and tho others smaller

nor OF the snake that should havo
been bitten. m a arisil.a noav
But there are, / believe, times when
the poisonous snakes are oppressed
with a superabundance of poison, and
then they are compelled to bite any
thing which their instinct tells them
will enable them to get rid Of their
surplus stock of venom. siaS
The poison of the snake seems TO
act upon the circulation, and death
seems to be caused by the circulation
becoming moro and more feeble, until
the heart at length ceases 10 beat
Anything, therefore, that would pro-
duce an increased action of the heart
ought to be a useful remedy. Thus
strong stimulants, or evcn running
about has been found highly bene-
fetal in cases of snake bites. To suck
the poison out of the wound is also a
remedy, whilst it is always q safe
plan to bind a igature tightly round
the limband above the part bitten;
thus tho poison is rs it were insulated
and prevented from acting Oh tho
whole body. n7 o tsrnI 81 -,

Ha OVER TAsKED CnIRDRES.--A great
trouble always pressing heavily ON
many a little mind, is that it is over
tasked with lessons. You, will. see
here and there, idiotic parents striving
to make infant phenomena of their
Echildren and recording with much
pride how their children can read and
write at an unnaturally early age
Such parents are fools-not necessari-
ly malicious fools but fools beyond
question. The great use to which the
first six or seven years of hfo should
ef Be giysa, & yen, is the laying tho foundation
mind, and in tho instilling of those
first principles of duty and religion
which do not ncod to be taught out q
any books. Even il You do not per
manently injure the young brain aud
mind by prematurely over tasking
them, even if you do not permanently
blight tho bodily health, and break
the minds cheerful spring, you gain
nothing. Your child, at fourteen
years old, is not a, bit further advanced
in education than child who began
his years after him !; and the entire re-
suit of your stupid driving has been to
overload some days which should hayo
boen among the happiest Of his life.
1t is woeful sight to me 10 sec the
little forehead corrugated with mental
effort, though the effort be to do no
more than master tho multiplication
table. 1t was sad story ] lately
heard of a little boy repeating his Lat
in lesson over and over again in tho
dolirium Of the, fever Of which he died,
saying pitcously that, indeed, he could
not do better. / don't like to see a lit
tie faco looking unnaturally anxious
and earnest about horrible task Of
spelling; and oven when children pass
that stage, and grow up into school
boys who. can read .Thucydidcs and
writo Greek lanbics, 1t is not wise in
parents to stimulate clever boy anx-
iety is strong enough already; it
needs rather to DO depressed /, 1t is
bad enough oven at college to work on
late into. the night; but at school it
ought not to be suffered for one mo-
ment. If a lady takes his place in
his class every day in a state Of ner-
vous tremor, he may be in tho way to
get his gold modal, indeed, but he il
in the way to shatter his constitution

For years he had not seen his native place
For years he had not spoken to n friend
For years he had not stood within a church;
And nov he fingered in the dushy porch,
And watched the congregation, ore by ono,
Chserfully enter aud dcyoutly bend
In silent alteration. Many tacc,
Familiar long ago, glanced toward his own-
Perhaps with won or; for they knew him not
Ard he was sadly changed, since in this spo.
His happy hoyhood swiftly passed away.
Strange fascination, Now be moods must stay
For, in the echoes of the choir, he hears
A melody familiar to long past years
And sweet associations Soon his tears
Tell how tho vagrant spirit has been moved.
All that he dreampt, all that he ever Lowell
All tina; youths prophecy said mi Eht have been,
All tho grim shadows of the wasted past,
In dim procession moved before him nov.
The va grant rs's his fingers DER his brow,
And seem Northumberland until at last
Ths dawning OF hopeful smile was seen
tpon his face. The music cf the palm
Died out in whispering echoes, and tho voice,
In sarne accents Of the village prizes,
Was heard in prayer Ones mtre tho yagran

Within tho church, and entered n

TIE Butter SpEcuLAr1oN.-The pa
pers all over the country, charge, on
what they consider is sufficient proof;
that the present high prices of butter are
not the result of scarcity, or an Inflated
currency. Upon this subject an Albany
paper says:
The butter spectators have their
agents traversing the central counties of
the State contracting with farmers for
their entire product the coming season at
forty-eiy7t cents and upvardsi ! BY thus
buying in advance of the manufacture,
they expect to control the market, and
permanent j maintain the present scan
dalous prices. These prices are, of course
the result, in good measure, of combina-
tons. La ordinary times, butter ranges
from fifteen to twenty-five cents per
pound. 1t does not cost a cent per pound
more TO manufacture it now than it did
three years ago. The price OF land has
not essentially advanced-rents remain
nearly the same. "Help" is dearer but
the Increase would not amount to more
than half u cent pound on the cost of
preparing dairy for the market. The
taxes on farms and farm products are
nearly nominal. The initiation Of curren.
cy ought to not to enhance the nominal
value more than six or seven cents a
pound. So that making the most liberal
allowance for the legitimate disturbing
agency Of the war, the best article Of
butter ought not to run beyond twenty
eight to thirty cents per pound. Every
mill above that is SO much paid in the
way Of concession to extorton.
Is there no way to break up this ring
Of spectators 3? The coal monopolists
had to compromise last winter. And yet
coal is an article of necessity while
butter is an article of luxury: Why
don't somebody start an Anti-Butser.
Eating Association? Let fifty of our
principal citizens sign pledge not to buy
an ounce of butter while the price is
above thirty cents, and how long would
1t be before the article would 90 a-beg-
gng at rates even below that ?"
