ABOUT FLIEs.-As this is the season for
flies, perhaps the following may be of in-
terest TO some of our readers:
The naturalist recognizes many hundred
kinds of flies in this country; but in our
household economy we reduce them main
ly to three sorts-housing flies, biting flies
and blue-bottle or blow flies. The latter is
readily distinguished; the two former are
frequently confounded, although eas,<p
known apart by the naturalist or acute OF
server. They may, however, always be
identified by glance by the position they
assume on the wall. A common house fly
almost invariably rests with his head
downward, and however 1t may light,
works its way round until this direction is
assumed. The biting flies on the contrary,
AS universally rest with the head pointing
upward, acting in this respect precisely
like the boodthirsty musquto. The broth
er of an eminent Russian entomologist,
now residing in the United States, observ-
ed peasant in his own country killing
some of the flies on wall of his hut with
out disturbing others, and, on being ques-
toned, he gave as reason that those with
their heads up were "blters' and others
were not. A careful examination of the
facts by the entomologist himself proved
the accuracy of the generalization thus
made by an ignorant but observant man.

II T.sLE .sBOUT HORSES.

We are quite sure that most people mis-
apprehend the power of horses to acquire
knowledge, and the value of this knowl-
edge when acquired. We know that few
in. this country ever give love to horse,
or receive much of what they might in re-
turn. On the desert sands of another hem
isphere, the Arab loves his horse only less
than his wife and children, and the horse
loves him quite as well, if not better than
either. There is little that the animal
n eeds to know that he does not readily and
completely comprehend, and this makes
him not only valuable friend, but
household companion and pet.
We know of stallion that loves his
master with such devotion that he seems
unhappy when he is away. Let him be
absent few days and then return, and his
delight is unbounded. He will stand on
his hind legs, thrust his nose into and all
over his face, and in more ways than the
most loving spaniel ever thought of, testify
his Astounding joy. When standing at a
post, htched, dashing about and paving
the ground in the most excited and furious
manner, single word from his master
even if spoken in the lowest tones, arrests
him at once, and cams him to stiffness.
If anything breaks the breeching, letting
the carriage upon him, he stops, and never
without direction lifts foot till the break
is repaired On one occasion, he acciden-
tally got one of his feet over the thilI, at
the same time breaking his hitch rein, and
otherwise "demoralizing" the harness, but
instead of running, and kicking, and
smashing things generally, he wandered
around, mainly on three legs, until, in a
most suppliant manner, he made his APP
peal to party, who set him right, to his
evident satisfaction and del ght.
What horses most need to make them
both serviceable and safe, are companion
ship and confidence. a good horseman
talks to his horse, pets, if he sometimes
Furnishes Kim, and when he does a merito-
rious deed conveys TO him the fact that he
recognizes and appreciates the service.
Besides this, and better, he is seen to as
sure the horse that he has faith in him.
lie handles his feet, puts himself in posi-
tons where he might hurt him if he
would, and when any accident occurs, he
tries TO throw some responsibility on the
animal, which the horse, generally per-
ceiving, accepts, and governs himself ac-
cordingly.-Hedrhd and Home.

OUR .y'Ou.BL LITRR.sTURE.
300 Washington street, BostC

1t is a notable fact that very much of the
literature of the present generation is in the
form of story. The amount of this kind of
writing is perhaps beyond computation.
The statement which has been made, that
each day sees the birth of new novel,
startling as it may seem, is, without doubt
far below the actual truth Our largest and
most respectable publishing houses are de-
voting by far the greater part of their re-
sources towards supplying the almost Him
table demand for this sort of reading. If
a new book firm is seeking to establish it.
SELF or new journal is starting upon its
career, it is fresh production from the fer
tile brain OF some great story-teller which
floats the new enterprise into successful
seas How great the number of those who
followed the last story from Dickens's pen!
How vast the interest awakened by the
mystery OF that fictitious life!
The vastness of this particular field of
literature is not the only remarkable fact
about it, more remarkable thing is, that
it has increased out of all proportion TO 9TH
err forms of thought and expression. There
have been some great histories, some poe
try and many scientific works written in
the present age. But the histories, and the
poetry, and the philosophical discussions of
this generation of men are fewer in number
and of less worth and ability than those of
some other times. But this cannot be said
of the stories of the day. These are i'm
mensely superior to those of any former
day-superior in number and superior in

We commend the following, (Which we
clip from the Boston Journal), to all our
readers, and especially TO young men:
Having had my feelings of indignation
aroused several times within the past year,
by cases which have been presented to me
of heartless swindlos, perpetrated upon
young men who have left their country
homes for this city, in pursuit of business
or employment, l feel it a duty to publicly
caution those who come in the future 10 be
careful in whom they repose confidence
when thus looking for a position.
There is no system of deception more
wicked than that which is laid to entrap
the class of young men to which allude,
and l take this means Of referring to it
from being informed that our laws do not
reach the guilty parties; hence the greater
need of caution.
1t may he well to mention a few cases,
be ignorant of such may be informed. /
give these as repeated to me by the parties
themselves, and which I believe to be cor
rect statements, as they had no object or
motive in view but to ask advice.
An honest, faithful Young man, who, by
hard work and economy had laid up q
thousand dollars, as mate of vessel, de-
termined that he would engage in some
employment on shore, so that he, with his
beloved wife and child, could together
have little home, which they anticipated
they would so much enjoy.
Visiting this city, he made inquiries of an
employment agent, who, after learning his
circumstances, came TO the conclusion thai
he knew real estate agent who was anx
ious to secure the services of an honest mar
in his Office, and possibly might hire him
He introduced him TO the agent, who was
very polite, said he was doing a'large bust
ness, wanted an honest man to assist him
but much preferred to take some one as
partner, as his flourishing business de
manded so much attention. Books wer
shown, which, had they contained actua
transactions, would have been full evi
dence of an active, paying business tw
