A SPIDER STORY, ~

i carefully watched common garden
spider (Epsnna diadensa, which / found
wonderful. / commenced by destroying
the web Of a fat spider, and the owner ap-
peared excessively astonished as her web
collapsed around her. sAtlength she TOOK
refuge in an inverted fower-pot where l
found her two hours after. l am inclined
to think that during this period she was
preparing materials for a new web. I
found in every case where web was de-
stroyed that the spider went away to some
quiet spot, and drawing his legs around
him, remained quietfo two or three hours. 4
During this period of repose the spider is
stupid and dull-just gives an impatient
shuttle when touched, but does net run off
as spiders generally do when disturbed
1 watched again, then left, and when
returned in half an hour Hound the spider,
as active as spider could be in building
anew web-the old one, which at my last
visit was still hanging, had vanished.
Had he spider eaten it ! ''that's the rub"
By lucky chance, another spider came
along the piece of wood on the end which,
my spider had fastened one of her found
alton lines. 'They met" aud in an in
slant the claws of each were shot out with
a.dexterity that pugilist might envy; the
blows were given in exactly the same man
ner as cat strikes her antagonist. The
trespassing spider was soon convinced that
1t would be the hight of folly to stop
where he was; so fastening a line from
where he stood, he let himself down on to
a conyolvulus leaf. Ny friend rushed to
the spot where spider No. 2 had fastened
his line, and seizing on it, the other end
of which, be it remembered, was in com
munication with No. 2's body, began to
wind him of, that is to say, she drew the
line in towards herself, in the sane man
ner that sailor hauls in rope, but with
a rapidity that was truly wonderful: the
front legs moved SO rapidly that my eyes
could scarcely follow them. Spider No.
2 having decided objection to his vitals
being wound away in this sort of manner,
put an end to my friend's little pastime by
cutting the line. Spider No. i had now
collected web that amounted to the size of
large pea; when she found the supply
cut off she began slowing it away in her
own body, forcing it in with her two front
claws, and in few moments not a vestige
was left-Science Gossip.

CARELESS BUSINESS MEN.

1t IS not possible for a man to be care
less in business affairs, or unmindful of his
business obligations, without being weak or
rotten in his personal character. Show
me a man who never pays his notes when
they are due, and who shuns the payment
of his little bills when it is possible, and
does both these things as habit and ]
shall see man whose moral character is,
beyond all question, bad. I am ready to
believe anything bad of a man who ha-
bituaEy neglects to fulfll his business obi
cations. Such man is certainly rotten
at heart He is not to be trusted with a
public responsibility, or a rum bottle, OF a
yoman.-Dr. Holland

CANISE sAGACIrY.

A friend residing in this county, inform
ed us last week Of an instance of canine
sagacity which deserves to be recorded.
About six weeks ago he presented to re-
lstive, then emigrating with his family to
Missouri, a pup, about three months old,
of the shepherd breed ofdogs. The rela-
tive, with his family, left this county for
their new home by rail, taking with them
the pup, and our friend, soon after they
had reached their destination, received a
letter announcing their arrival and stating
that the pup was doing well. On the
morning of last Friday week, on opening
the door of his house, our friend was as.
tonished at seeing the pup on the porch,
foot-sore, and worn almost to skeleton.
1t was evident that he had travelled from
Missouri on foot but by what instinct be
had traced his way to his old home from
such distant point when he had been
taken there shut up in railroad car, is
mystery, but the fact affords an instance
of remarkable canine sagacity.-BGeksye

CLIoUEs.--lt is generally considered
dishonorabIe to belong to a clique, or to be en-
gagged In any undcrhanded tricicry to secure the
offices by an arrangement made between few In
diylduaIs. That there is such m organization In
the town of Jackson, none dare deny. We went
to work last week 10 find out who compose the
clique, and got on the track Of one man, and be-
came pretty certain that we had dead wood on
him. We noticed him in close and secret CONVEX
satlon with certain men, and especially with
certain candidate for Auditor. We pounced upon
them on certain occasion, and discovered their
mode of operations. And here 1t is. The men
were Capt Grassland and Capt. Atkinson. We
caught them operating their plan in "a room oppo-
site our office on Main Street. And what do you
think was their planI 1t wns this they had
conspired together to cell clothing twenty per
cent cheaper than any other house in town.
Now all we have to say Is, that we are after all
cliques and will expose them 'disregardlcss" OF
consequences Here we have exposed ono, and II
they do not keep their 'eyes skinned" we Will
expose Others So look out.

ORANGE FURNACE Torn Down. Last
spring certain politicians assured the propretors
of Orange Furnace that in the event that certain
party succeeded in the Corporation election, that
the Orange Furnace would be torn down, or at
least that the hot blast would be destroyed and
what couda furnace do without hot blast! The
proprietors became alarmed. As they could not
dig, and were ashamed to beg-Tere to honest 10
work, and too lazy 10 steal, and did not like to
become township charge, they went to Cineln-
natl and bought many thousands OF dollars worth
of goods, and thought to make little something
by selling them. What was the result' The
fumacc-pulling- g-down-party were elected put
did not destroy the furnace, as was predicted
and now the furnace is in full blast, Is coming
money and the proprietors are almost ashamed
to be engaged in so small business as selling
goods
They have on hand large stock, which they
are running off at merely nominal prices oai'
at their store, next door below the Bank, CON-
mCIcial Block, Main Street.

Ok last Saturday a benevolent indi-
vidual came to town to pay his taxes. After he
had transacted his business, be went to one of the
"saloons " in town, and contributed few dimes
to the support of the keeper thereof. lie then
went III company with the town Marshal, and con-
tributcd three dollars toward educating the chill
dren of Jackson. He was also SO kind as to give
Mayor Burke and the Marshal two dollars and
some odd cents, for recording his benevolence on
the town records. 1t is true, our friend cursed
the Jackson Standards; but that Is neither here
nor there. We admire benevolence, wherever ex-
hibited. Call again, friend.
