The Indian Boa.

We do not mean by Bsa 8 long fur
tippet for the neck, which serves as a
comfort in cold weather, but a mighty
living reptile, whose gentlest pressure is
death.
The Python, great serpent, is known
as the Indian Boa-thirty feet in length.
1t acts the tigers part, lying in wait in
hot, steamy swamp, or beneath the
underwood of a dark, marshy forest.
There it turks, half floating in the water,
half stretched on the land, or partly
twined around some rugged tree, and
partly extended like awithered branch,
the color of the creature serving to de-
ce1ve the eye of the beholder. Patiently
it waits, until deer, buffalo, or human
being passes that way, or comes to a
stream to drink; then, as rapid as an
arrow, it throws its body into folds or
knots around that of its victim, and
bears it to the ground. So great is its
strength, that the bones of an OK snap
in an instant. Having crushed its prey
in its folds, until shapeless mass re-
mains, it then slowly untwines its length,
raises it's head aloft, the tongue rapidly
moving to and fro, and prepares to swal-
low its prey. This work pre- ceeds slowly,
and with many efforts; its vast jaws
spread out, and, as the crushed mass
proceeds into the inside, the body of the
boa expands to four times its usual size.
The creature now sinks into state of
stupor, and in this helpless condition
it is easily killed. The negroes, who
have a great love for its flesh, now at
tack it, and carry it home, cut it up in
slices, and feed on it for days.
The boa is a native of the hotter por-
ton of South America, where it is the
terror of man and beast. The swiftness
of the deer is no protection the monkey
is not safe among the branches of the
tree; nor the large fish in the stream.
1t can climb, swim, dart along the
ground, and thus show itself to be su
perior to all other living things. Let
US be thankful that the boa is unknown
in our land.-Our Young Folks HAS

Moral COntagion.

In short pamphlet of twenty four
pages, DR.. Despine treats of matter
observed by all who read the newspapers;
we mean the fact that crimes, particu-
larly those of graver description, gen.
orally occur in epidemics. To prove
this point, DR.. Despine, in the first di-
vision of his paper, records a large
number of murders, suicides, robber-
les, etc. Moral contagion being a natural
phenomenon, is consequently one of the
laws to which God has subjected all Gre
ated things. We succeed in the dis
covery of this law by analyzing moral
facts and by studying the circumstances
in which they occur, in the same man
ner as we succeed in discovering the
laws which preside over the phenomena
of the physical and organic worlds, by
studying perseveringly the lacts apper-
tanning thereto as we'll as the conditions
in which they are produced. Now the
conclusion to be drawn from the facts
which we have related is forcibly this,
which will represent the law that has
directed the commission of these acts !:
Every manifestation of the instinct of
mind, of the sentiments and passions
of every kind, excites similar sentiments
and passions in individuals who are ca
pable OF feeling them in certain inten-
sity. This law explains how a certain
act infects some and not others. One
could not better compare mans moral
nature than TO sounding-board table
dharmonie) The sounding of ore note
causes vibrations in the same note in
all the boards, which, being susceptible
of emitting are Influenced by the
sound emitted. In the same way the
manifestation of sentiment, of pas
sion, excites the same instructive ele-
ment in every individual susceptible, by
mis- moral constitution, of feeling more
or less acutely this same instructive ele-
| ment.-JoHnal of Medical Science.

Railway Reform.

A curious instance of the change of
opinion on certain political questions is
presented by the New York Post of
late date. That journal contains an
elaborately prepared editorial which
virtually indorses the system now being
advocated by certain parties in England,
by which the State is to have exclusive
control OF the railroads of the country.
The New York Post was founded, we
believe, by William Leggett, one of the
most strenuous opponents of any gov
eminent interference in the financial
or commercial affairs of the country.
His successor, Mr.. Bryant, has advo-
Gated similar principles for nearly half
century. Yet he, too, feels compelled,
in view of the monopolies which are
expressing the people, to go back on
his record and virtually advocate sys-
tenn of government interference which
the most pronounced Federalist of Mr..
Leggett's day would have considered
wild and visionary.
The Post contends that whether all
that is put forward in favor Of the plan
of government control be warranted or
not, there can be no doubt that the ne
cesslty for cheap transit is great. The
solution of the question, as proposed in
England, is that the railways, like the
postoffice, should be managed as a
national institution, and on the same
plan which in postoffice economy has
been found SO successful and satisfac-
tory. At present in Great Britain the
railways are particularly carriers of par
GELS under two pounds of weight at
single rate for all distances. 1t is pro-
posed that, commencing on their own
account, when they leave off on govern
ment account, the railways should carry
parcels up to 1000 pounds, and also the
freight, tonnage and passengers on the
same plan as adopted by the postoffice.
There is no magic in two pounds; and
it is urged there is no good ground for
supposing the plan would not be as sue
cessful and satisfactory applied to
weights above two pounds as it proved
to be applied to weights under that
amount.
The Post gives the following tabula-
ton in reference to countries, and to
some of our own States. 1t shows, at a
glance, what comparatively low rate
of fare and freight for all distances,
like the postage rate, would suffice to
raise revenue equal to that accruing
from the present mileage rates:

The Postal Telegraph in England.

The English postal telegraph system
turns out to be a splendid success. Mr..
Scudamore puts the plumber of mes
sages, when the postoffce places were
fully completed, at 11.650,O0O. The
total for the year ending the 31st of
March was l2,472,796. The traffic is
continuously increasing. In the June
quarter of 1871 the excess over the pre-
vious year was at the rate of 20 per
cent. in the September, 26 per cent.
in the December, 90 per cent. and in
the first quarter this year SO per cent.
The number of messages for the ensuing
year is expected to be l6, 10000, yield
ing 1925 coo; while from press mes
sages and other sources 996,l2O IS
derived. The expenditure is 100000,
which leaves e350,000, or Sl,750,0O0, to
be added to the revenues OF the
Kingdom.

Combining piety with Profit.

In Keokuk, Iowa, recently, a saloon
keeper was arrested for selling liquor
on Sunday. In court he explained that
ne was a Seventh-Day Baptist, while
his his wife belonged to the Dutch Re-
formed Church. He kept Saturday
holy, and she sold beer on that day. On
Sunday she observed the day and he
carried on the business. For the privi-
lege of combining piety with SO much
profit the enterprising dispenser OF the
ardent was compelled to pay a small
fine, and was then released with the
understanding that the partnership with
his wife would not legalize the breaking
of the Sabbath day.

Horse NOIes.

The reported death of the celebrated
horse Lexington turns out to have been
premature. He is said to be recovering
and may live for several years yet.
Gov. STANFoRD's horse Occident, at a
public trial of speed at Sacramento,
Cal, recently, trotted three consecutive
heats in 2:l9, PIG. 2:l94; and on an
other occasion trotted a half mile in
1:063.
THIS is TIE way they do it when on the
track: Longfeilow, 1:432 Harry Bas-
set, 1:494; Goldsmith Maid. 2:164 /;
Dexter to 2:l74.
The recent Dexter Park (Chicago)
racing meeting was the most brilliant
and successful ever held in that city.

ONE RATE FOR ALL DISTANCES.

These figures show Inat in Belgium a
23-cent passenger rate and 2cent freight
for all distances would be more than
sufficient to earn $4,000 per mile an
nually. But these are unreasonably
low figures. Put the rate at 80 cents
per ton for goods, and passengers at u
cents for all distances, and Government
would increase present receipts over
$l,0G0,000. But the great benefit ac-
cruing from this plan would be in
creesed travel, by which cities would
be benefited as well as country, and an
immense impulse given to industry Of
every description.
The Post refers to the fact that the
last report of the Bureau OF Agricul-
ture states that large proportion of
the fax fiber grown in the West is
thrown to the manure heap, and he
census report instances as notorious
facts that ''when corn is selling for 80
cents in New England it is burned for
fuel in Iowa; when wheat IS selling for
Sl.35 in New York it is only worth As
cents in Minnesota, and whom beef
brings 81 hundred on the hoot in the
East cattle are slaughtered for their
hides in Texas" But multitudes Of
such facts might be cited to show, what
common-sense sufficiently indicates,
that unless the interior States of the
West can obtain an outlet for their pro-
duce their property is valueless and
labor thrown away, save in SO far as
they suffice for subsistence.
With the view of aiding inquiry, the
following particulars are added in refer
ence to number of our leading rail-
road lines, located in various districts,
as to the distance which a passenger
travels on the line, and his fare, and
as to the. distance which each ton of
goods on an average is carried, and at
what cost. In New York State each
passenger travels on an average of thir-
ty-seven miles, and each ton of freight
IS carried one hundred and twenty-nlne
miles:
