Ingenuity Of Animals.

One of the largest of ferocious ami
mails in South America is the jaguar, q
native tiger, felis onca. Besides being
large and immensely strong, it prac-
tices extraordinary stragetic schemes in
procuring food, which indicate some.
thing above mere instinct, because cir.
cumstances are constantly requiring
some variations in their foraging expe-
ditions for prey. Humboldt says when
they find turtle they. adroitly turn it
over on its back. It is then helpless
and totally unable to offer resistance
in that condition. With the most cruel
manifestation of feline character the
jaguar then leisurely gnaws out the
qulvering flesh from between the shell
and carapace. Another of the iaguar's
reasoning man@uverings is to quietly
follow the margin of streams. At the
sight of fish near enough to be ap-
proached, with quiet dash of it's paw
the game is thrown high and dry above
the bank. Fortunately for the country
the jaguar has a match in the great SER
pents that infest tropical America. In
the twinkling of an eye one of these
monsters winds himself round his body
and crushes out life and cracks the
bones into fragments at the same mo-
ment.

John Scott, in closing out his valua-
bic and widely circulated newspaper at
Oakland. wreaks his disgust in the fol-
lowing words that burn "ro continue

and suffocatingly crowding the mourn
ers.' | have had quite enough of news
Paperdom the cline is not congenial,
the soil is not productive, and the har-
vest not worth reaping, either for it's
honors or emoluments. There are lhap-
pier spheres for me, aud intend to
seek their sunny slope; there nrc more
congenial pursuits inviting me, and l
hasten to rush into their embrace. IL

dulteratcd rest, repose and happiness,
there is no comparison between running
IA printing press and jack-plane.'

Senator Wilson's Home.

Senator Wilson's house is thus de-
scribed in the Boston Times: 1t is a
pretty place, although manufacturing
town. Its main street looks business
like and fuller of life than most towns
OF it's size. Leading from the village
center is the street where Hon. Henry
Wilson resides, when not in Washing
ton. 1t has neat cottages on either
side, with tasteful gardens. Among
the least pretcntlous of these is the
Senator's home. It is two-and- a half
story house, with straw-colored coat
of paint and green blinds. In front
are two bay windows, and on one side
piazza and the main entrance, and on
the other small garden which shows
no indication of cultivation other than
q circular plot containing a crimson
peony bush in full bloom. A cedar
hedge, neither trimmed nor thrifty,
skirts ono side of the path. Such is
the residence of Massachusetts Sena-
tor. 1t is neither elegant nor attract.
i've, hnt simply comfortable and sub
stantial, without an outward sign of
culture or refinement. 1t is the house
of an cx-shoemaker, and is where Mr..
Wilson has long lived.

Sirpinificancn or (Nl0rs.

A singular instance OF the selection
of colors is remarked in the chorus at
the Boston Coliseum. The significance
of this selection may also be noted. It
appears that the oontralio singers, who
SIT nearest the bass singers, indulge in
dark-blue and dark-green, while the
soprano singers, who sit earest the
tenors, indulge in lighter blues and
green. In the centre and on each side.
where contraltos and sopranos sit re-
mote from either tenors or bassos, the
prevalent tint is light-blue, without
any sign of green. Blue and green are
the predominant oolors. they are the
fashionable. But while the gentle So
prani, arrayed in colors complimentary
to the unhappy tenori, bedeck them
selves with light shades, on the other
hand their sisters Of the contralto
persuation find the colors compliment
ary to the rough bassi in the dark hues
of azure and green. Whether this So
lection of tints has any relation to mu.
sical measures, or whether harmony in
melody and coloring are of kin, or tho
further question Of the connection of
their selected shades with the chame-
leon phases of the chase matrimonial.
we leave to those who deal in aesthetics
or metaphysics, and to the observers of
the action and agitation of the average
New England choir, where filtration is
by no means unknown. Tho great fact,
however, remains as above stated.

The Adventures OF a Youthful Siren-An
Old Fool Rninei and Tilted.

A Boston letter writer gives some
new detail regarding the career of the
adventures who was married in Lon
don to the late we'll known actor,
Walter Montgomery, q marriage which
was almost Immediately followed by
the suicide of the bridegroom. This
woman was one of the coryphees at q
Boston theatre, when she attracted the
attention of an old but wealthy citizen,
who was foolish enough to marry her.
The union was not happy one, as the
woman soon developed fondness for
fast society, which was anything but
Agreeable to her aged spouse. Finally,
she ran away and visited England,
where, as is we'll known, she was mar
ried to Mr.. Montgomery, who was on
the point of visiting the United States.
It has been said that his mortifica-
tion on discovering the true character
of the person whom he had welded
drove him to the desperate step of
taking his own life IN preference to
meeting the scorn which he expected
to receive from tho world when the
facts should become known.
Mr.. Montgomery dead and buried,
the spurious widow returned to her le-
gitimate husband in Boston, who ap-
pears to have been 80 Infatuated with
the unprincipled adventures as to have
lost all regard for his own honor or
good name. The treacherous woman
was received with open arms and sup
piled with unlimited sums of money.
She appeared in public on every occa-
sion with all possible display, making
profuse and ostentatious expenditure
of her husbands wealth. In the course
of a few months the foolish old gentle
mans means were all squantlered away,
and very recently his name has ap-
peared in q list of bankrupts. As
might have been expected, the woman
who had caused his ruin deserted him
rs soon rs his ability to administer to
her extravagsnoe had failed.

Bald Heads.

Hair is essential to the perfect condi-
ton of the blain. Now this assertion
may seem ridiculous when it is we'll
known that the worlds great men, from
julius Caesar down to the present year
of grace, are as bald as goose egg.
There is nice physiological point
involved in this matter of no haired
skull, but it would take to much time
to explain the law, and besides, it
would require several technical terms
which nobody but doctors could under
Standard scarcely one in ten of those
learned gentlemen. If bald men ac-
complish so much without hair, who
knows what they would have done with
it,
Now, it is morally certain as any
proposition in science when the bulbs
out of which each hair springs are de-
stroyed no preparation will regenerate
them. Therefore waste neither money
nor labor III buying hair regenerators.
If the hat had air holes from boy
hood up to manhood, ventilation would
put stop to badness. Light open
bonnets save the ladies from that ca
lamity, unless they abuse their long
tresses by overstretching them with
combs. Hats, like the best con-
structed houses, must have provision
for free circulation of mir through
them. Hatters, therefore, have the
benefit of science for their guide.

improvement In Decorative Oil Painting.
Jean Marie T.aachn IF por;o hos ~

improvement In Decorative Oil Painting.
Jean Marie Lasche, of Paris, has in
vented and patented certain improve.
ments in decorative oil painting, the
object being to replace the painting in
oil executed directly on surfaces for
buildings, ships, carriages, carpenters
work, cabinet work, furniture orna-
ments, ETC., and also gliding, by a
portable oil, painting oiling already
executed, finished and dry which is
applied BY sheets, strips, or pieces up.
on the said surfaces, by the aid of q
sticky varnish or waterproof cement.
The process is as follows:
Tin foil of the greatest thickness
that is to soy, foil or tin or composite
metal Herewith, which are rolled very
thin and knewn as tin foil in the trade
lis spread evenly upon q hard and
smooth surface, which by preference is
slightly moistened to assist in the pro-
cess of spreading the tin foil. Upon
this tin foil any desired effect of oil
painting is executed, from the plain oil
painting in fat tone, to the most ella
borate 0rnamentation in all it's branch
es ; and this can be done either by
hand or by processes of printing, stem
CLING, through the aid of machinery,
in whole or in part, imitation of costly
woods, stones and marbles, subjects
of interior, ornamental gliding, and a
combination of gliding and oil paint
ing. In short, anything which is exc
cuted in oil paint may, it is claimed, be
executed upon this tin foil. The work
when finished is vanished, and when
thoroughly dry il removed from the
hard surface upon which it was sheath
cd. Il is then ready to be transported
from the shop, and for that purpose it
may be rolled like wallpaper. To ap-
ply this portable paint, the surface or
object upon which it is placed is coated
with sticky varnish orhydraulic &C.
meut this portable paint is cut of the
suitable size and applied carefully
pressing it against the surface or OBJ.
ject, SO as to drive away all intervening
air. The sheets msy be applied to- ir-
regular surfaces, carving, sculpture,
ETC.,, as the tin foil and the
oil paint and gold thereon are each very
pliab]e. -
