INSULT TO FOREIGNERs.-Garfelde, in
his speech at Stevens saloon, indulgcd in
an unnecessary and malignant fling at
foreigners-such as could only come from
man who had been poisoned by Know
Nothing virus. He referred to the Dutch,
the Irish and English as low-bred class,
who could live upon black bread and mo-
lasscs, varied in the case of the Irishman
who necessarily required dish of pota-
toes; and said these foreigners thought
they were in luck if they had piece Of
meat on their table once week. More
than one foreigner who heard this foul
SANDER, turned away in disgust, and was
heard to hiss out maledictions upon the
head of the man who praised the nigger
and insultcd the free white foreigner, A
few more speeches like the one described
and Garfeld's friends will be compelled to
lay the "silvcr tongucd orator" away among
the worthless rubbish Of the past Walla

NICOTINE IN TOBACCO Professor Sec,
Of Paris, recently delivered, at the Hos
pital de Ia Charlie, lecture on tobacco.
He pointed out that the proportion Of
nicotine varies according to the kind of
tobacco. Thus. that produced in Ger
many and AIsace contains from 7 to 8 per
cent. Of nicotine, while that from Havana
and Maryland has only 2 per cent. In
small doses nicotine acids respiration, and
does not effect the heart, but in larger
quantities the professor showed that it

A Rich DEPOSIT OF MANURE.-The
New England Farmer says that one Of
the most remarkable occurrences Of the
last six years is the discovery ola vast
body Of phosphate Of lime, two feet and a
half in depth, which underlics the city Of
Charleston, South Carolina, and several
districts around it. Under the city it is
sixty feet below the streets, but in the
county it comes to the surface in bed of
mari, and is easily cxcavated. 1t is COM
posed Of the bones of antcdiluvian mon.
sters, whose teeth and vcrtebre are often
distinguishable, and it is now used for the
cotton fields, and shipped both coast-wisc
and to Europe 1t commands price Of
eight to ten dollars per ton on the pier at
Charleston.
1t was said before the war, in 1860, that
every pound Ct guano was good for an ad-
ditioual pound of cotton. The phosphate
of lime, duly prepared, is nearly as effect
i've, fact which shows clearly the almost
incaloulable value of this discovery.

CosT or LOAFERIsM-Doest the young
man who persists in being loafcr ever
reflect how much less it would cost to be
decent, respectable young man? Does he
imagine that loafcrism is more econOmi-
cal than gentility? Anybody can be a
gentleman, if he chooses to be, without
much cost, but it is mighty expensive
being a loafer. 1t costs time in the first
place Adays, weeks, months of tin fact,
about all the time he has, for no man can
be first class loafer without devoting
nearly his entire time to il. The occupa-
tion, we'll followed, hardly affords time for
eating, sleeping, drive had almost said
drinking. but on reflection We will except
that The loafer finds time to drink

and you bid farewell to every friendly sail
that floats under an honest and legitimate

have one for months, the time lost might

The House Fly.

How many Of our readers are familiar
with tho early history of the common
house fly, an insect that makes its appear
ance in early spring, in countless swarms,
comm. from some unknown locality. and
disappearing almost as my ystcriously? There
are few insects at once so familiar to ALL
and yet the natural history of which is so
little understood; and it may not be amiss,
therefore to recount n few facts which
have been asccrtaincd in regard to it.
The order Of Diptcra, to which the fly
belongs, is ono If great extent, and its men,
hers, in their different forms, include many
Of the greatest pests in existence, both to
man and animals. The mosquito, gnat,
biting Ay, horse fly, tcetzc, limb, aud other
species, arc we'll known illustrations of this
statement, many of them being armed with
lancets and other forms of aggressive
weapons. by means Of which they become
source Of torment. Tho house fy, howcv-
or. although provided with a somewhat
similar apparatus does not use it common.
ly SO as to draw blood, its offcnsivcncss
consisting principally in tic pcrtinacity
with which it insists upon crawling over
the skin, or in infes,ing articles of food.
The eggs of the house fly are laid in de.
caying vegetable matter, such as dead
leaves, aud especially in the manure Of sta
bles, about 70 or 80 being the usual num-
her. These soon hatch, and the larva
grows rapidly, feeding upon the substances
near it. After short time the outer skin
hardens and becomes brown and tough,
forming case shaped like little barrel
divided into rings. The transformation of
the larva is quickly made, and the animal
is, soon ready to emerge as perfect insect.
The common blow fly is another species
of this order, which lays its eggs in dc.
caying flesh, and which hatch sometimes
before leaving the body Of the parent, and
in any event soon become developed into
the larva. These form the we'll known
maggots, which arc the annoyance Of house
keepers in hot weather.
"A fly very similar to the house fly in ap-
pcarancc, but with the wings diverging
more widely when in state Of rest, is pro-
vidcd with a very powerful lancet, by
means of which blood may be drawn in an
instant after settling upon the body Of an
animal 1t is curious fact that this spc.
cics like the mosquito, in alighting upon
IN upright surface, uniformly rests with
its head upward, the true house fly occu-
pyins q precisely opposite direction, or
with the head downward, thus affording q
ready means Of distinguishing them.
The house fly, both as grub and perfect
insect, furnishes food to great variety Of
other animals; but the destruction Of the
adult is largely due to the growth Of
parasitic fungus which attacks it, and de-
vclopins rapidly in its interior, soon ex-
hausts its vitality.-Harper's Magazine

BREATHING Cold AIR.-Cold air is not
injurious to breathe, even by the most del
icate. If it causes irritation and coughing
for time, it is only because it seeks to
dnd its way into diseased and overbur-
dened lungs, to strengthen as much as
permitted. The injury received from 60
ing into cold air proceeds from having
some part of the body insuf6ciently clothed
to protect it from cold and dampuess, and
not from inhaling it into the lungs. a'
