The first number of the STAB will be

difficulties attending the getting up of a
new paper, which time alone can remove.
In a week or two VIC hope to get every
thing about the Office systematized, and
to furnish the patrons Of the STAR with a

mind that the ENTERPRISE and the STAR
arc distinct Institutions. But as they will

ScrOfulous poison is one of the most dcstruc-
tive enemies of our race. Often, this unseen and

presence. Again, it seems to breed infection
throughout the body, and then, on some favorable
occasion, rapidly develop into one or other of it's
hideOus forms, either on the surface or among the
yitals. In the latter, tubercles may be suddenly
deposited in the lungs or heart, or tumors formed
In the liver, or It shows its presence by eruptions

4 DRY JOKE.

In shady Sehuylkill cove some half
dozen young gentlemen bn,hers were dis
porting themselves in the cooling river
waters, having left their clothes upcn the
shore
While they were at the height Of s.iieir
enjoyment, two young ladies, each with
book in her hand, came down steep,
narrow path, and seated themselves on a
moss-covered rock, under aspreadihg tree,
opened their books and began to reads'
The young meh swaIn around project
ing point OF the rock, and waited for the
daH,sels to go away; !; but they continued
to read on and on, turning slowly leaf
after leaf, so very interesting were the
sensation novels they were perusing.-
And all the while they were closely
watched by iae now sSivering and i'm
patient bathers.
For nearly two hours the two young
ladies stirred not but, as the sinking gun
/
began to throw long shadows over the
leaden water. ihey arose, and, arm in arm,
they began to move off, when suddenly
one of them paused, threw off her big
hat, unlaced, anbuttOned, sad dropped
her frock, and called out {:
"Come ashore, boysl "a. on your
clothes. We've got thropsla reading"
They were not young ladies' at all, but
two wild, mischievaus wags, fond Of fun,
and practical jokers of the most uDssru
pulous kind, who lad come out to play
cruel triek on .Aeir unsuspecting COM
panions.
Their secret, however, was so well
kept, that, individually, they have not
been discovered TO this day.

CRaCODILEs-.

Of all the wild animals the crocodile
seems to be the most alarming and de-
structive. An Egyptian sportsman, who
supported himself and his family by the
product of his gun. about three years
since, with three of his neighbors. went
to an island called Geizerill Arab-a
favorite resort for crocodiles-to hunt for
their eggs. As they were going round
the island. three crocodiles, escaped into
the river. On exaaining the spot.
quantity of eggs were discovered in the
sand. These tier secured, and were
proceeding back to their tents, when
crocodile who had watched the transac-
ton rushed to the place OF her deposit.
and as rapidly returned to the river and
swimming, followed them opposite to their
abode, where until Eightfall her eyes
were seen above water. The sportsmen
teasted sumptuouslT upon their spoil
bat as soon as the last erabers Of their fire
had died away, the sracodi,c charged
them furiously, repeating her attacks sew
.eral times during the night; and it was
only by frequent discharge of their FIRE
arms that they kept her away at all.
The crocodile, which had hitherto re-
,n,ina1 barn,1asa ,,our lo.lL
and attacked all the cattle it could catch
upon the river side. Among the victims
was fine mare in the neighboring village,
who, as usual, was allowed to Craze in
the coarse abundant pasturage. One day
whilst drinking, she was seized in the
back of the nec9 by the jaw of the
crocodile. The mare being powerful
animal. in the agony of pain, threw up
her head. The crocodile dropped upon
her back, and with her strange burden
the mare galloped off to her stable. The
astonished villagers immediately set up
on the crocodile with their naJOot, or
stout sticks, until she was induced to let
go her hold and dismount; bue. the mare
died from TIE joint effect of':ts wounds
and fright.
During March, which is the breeding
season, the crocodiles deposit their eggs
in the sand on the banks or, in prefer
ence, in small sand banks or island on
the stream. The eggs, which are white
and hard, in size resemble those of
goose. One found or the White River
exactly three inches and half
in length, and five inches and thirteen
sixteenths in circumference.
The care and anxiety bestowed by
ferocious creatures upon their eggs is:
When about to lay, .Re'Fs--
male crocodile will dig with her claws
a hole in the sand six inches deep, drop
her eggs therein and cover it up. he
will then nuke several holes around the
first to mislead those in search Of her
treasure. Every day she will add fresh,
egg to her store. at the same time care

them, and recovering them with sand.

Only girl, with her winsome smile.
The prettiest creature. who will beguile
The gloomiest hour with new born thou ght,
The gift which another day hath brought;
Who asks such queries and must be taught
With patient care
And fervent pray'r.
Only girl, with her gentle why,
Who finds new pleasure with every day
Who breaks more dishes, wastes more thread
First, feeding her doll, then dressing its head
With new-style bonnet, now tlue, then red
Than would fill q case

Only girl, with her baby crib,
Her cradle, her chair, and needed bib;
Who makes such work in the course of day
Putting to rights what she leaves in play;
And yet our sorrows she doth allay
With her prattling talk
And her happy walk.
Only girl, with her sweet caress,
Her laughing eyes, and beauteous tress
OF silken hair, and queenly air,
A form of grace, and face so fair,
Her mothers companion in joy and care
And whateer betide,
Her fathers holiest love and pride.
Only girl, who may be dame
If she keep what is better than life-good

If death, or disease, or seduc tive vile
Destroy not our child, with her sunny smile,
Our pl easure, our daughter, who knows moth

Our hopes in a constant whirl.
