of these seed. When oysters have
spawned in clear place and free from
their fish enemies, their growth is very
rapid until they attain the size of a quar-
ter of q dollar, and it is at this period of
their existence that tho oystermen take
them for transplanting. The shells are
very thin and the inside meat scarcely
larger than a shirt button, and having
tho rest of the shell filed with milky
fluid, which in time forms tho body Of
the fish. Oysters, after they are trans
planted, are, with few exceptions, not
fit to cat under three years. 1t might
be supposed that the oyster, with its
hard shell, was free from all danger,
but such is not the case. He has two
deadly cnemios--tho starfi5h and the
borer. The former will flston on the
mouth ofany oyster and in a short
time suck the out him. The latter,

We once knew Of little child who
had stolen couple offigs off the dessert
dish on the day of dinner party. The
theft was discovered, and her father
made her wear the figs on string
around her neck the Who'll" evening,
with full explanations why. We
heard the story when the child had
grown up to be a woman, and from
her own lips ; and she said that to this
hour she suffered from the shame OF that
evening; it was burnt into her, and
| made wound incfIucoable for life.-
1t was tremendous punishment for
the fault the fault itself being in so
young a child as she was five years old
only-one that might have been pun
ishcd and reformed by milder meas
ures. III seems to have been q mistake,
judging from the bitterness with which
the fathers character was spoken Of
she said she had ceased to lovo him
from that day-and from the stern and
| lovclesS nature of the woman herself
it seemed TO have cast out all softnesi
from her. And though, to be sure, she
stole no more figs, yet she had learned
her lesson Of keeping her fingers from
wondering into the region of forbidden
daintics at too severe cost. The policy
of humiliation is dangerous oao at all
times and on all occasions, and far more
souls have been crushed by this than
sins have been confirmed by Over-lcni-
cncy. To destroy all self respect is tC
destroy all healing power, and to pre-
vent all possibility of a rebound. IL
dealing with the faulty however harG
we may be on the sin, we ought always
to reserve way Of restoration to tn
sinner.

the very act of swallowing draws over

which fits 50 closely that not even q
particle Of air can pass but at ;the in
slant of swallowing it opens up with q
spring, and we go on breathing as if

this trap-door, being at the narrowcst
part of the passage, is kept closed, not

A small-Pox sensation.

A genuine smallpox sensation was inaugura-
ted few days since in DrittwoOd, near Williams
port, Pa 1t appears that scayenger made his
appearance at the hotel in that village and was
given lodgings for the night, retiring in a state
OF intoxication. The next morning he was found
to be sick and unable to lise, and died the eve
ming OF that day. A coffin was procured, the
corpse laid out and upon removal il was ascer-
tanned that the body could not be conveyed down
the stairway, owing to its narrow, winding course.
1t was thereupon resolved to lower the body
from the window, and in the execution OF this
task the coffin burst, and tue body fell to the
ground, also bursting. Six men gathered mp
the remains, and the burial was performed az
speedily az possible. To the utter astonishment

hotel were taken with smallpox, one of whom,
