rent concerning it. The following are
examples. When fox is ever so much
trolbled with Heas, he plucks out
mouthful of his hair, aud thea takes TO
the water, holding the tuIt in his
mouth all the heas creep up to this to
escape drowning, aud the fox then
drops it into the stream and rctires,
freed from his enemies. The celebra
ted Arabic author and theologian, Esh
Shaiery, Relates that when in Yemen,
he and his fellow travellers prepared
two fowls for dinner one day, but the
hour Of prayer coming on, they left
them on the table aud went to perform
their deyotions meanwhile a fox came
and stole one. After their prayers
were flushed, they saw the fox prowl-
ing about as they thought with their
chicken in his mouth, SC they pursued
him and he dropped it. On coming
up nearer to it, however, they found il
to be only piece Of palm fibre, which
the TO. had dropped to attract their at.
tention, aud had, in the mean time,
crept round aud carried off the second
chicken aud left them dinnerless. The
fox is said to leign death, aud initiate
his body, aud when any animal, prompt.
ed by curiosity, comes to look at him,
he springs up and seizes it.

Filthy American Habits.

Europeans pronounce Americans the
filthiest people on earth, who claim to
be civilized. We are nation Of spitters
Go where you wil--into the hotel, the
stage coach, the railroad car, the thea
tire, lecture room or concert, it is spit
spit, spill Even the parlor aud the
Church are deiiIed by this filthy habit,
And as to the habit Of smoking, there
is not one man in hundred who has
decency aud good breeding sufficient to
refrain from smoking in a mixed com-
pauy iu hotel or railroad car, unless the
practice is positively forbidden. Aud
some men are sufficiently rude to smoke
iu violation of all rule, not caring
whether il is offensive to those present
or not, aud not respecting the presence
of ladies. Travelling in the cars, some
time since, the writer observed young
man smoking lie was not in the
smoking car. Before him sat four
gentlemen, engaged in conversation.
lie pulled his vile tobacco smoke from
his mouth as though that organ were a
chimney, and soon the heads of the
four gentlemen who sat just before him
were completely enveloped in cloud,
Two Of them turned towards him aud
gave him rcproachful look, but he
pulled away, the cloud Of smoke grow
ing dcnser aud deuser, the smoker not
seeming to concern himself about their
annoyance, in the least degree. The
writer thought it would have served
him right it the four gentlemen had
opened a window and chucked him ouI
of it. They at least mig t have callet
the Conductor and had the nuisance
removed tothe smoking ear. Conductor
are not sufficiently vigiaut to guart
their passengers from this very frequen
annoyance.

Paul Morphy.

Paul Morphy, the foremost chess.
player of any age or country, still re.
sides in New Orleans. All lovers of
chess will recollect how, 10 1850, when
but thirteen years ef age, he defeated
the great hungarian player, Lcwenlhal,
who was then on visit to New Orleans;
how, in 1857, he beat everybody. and
astonished the natives at the Chess
Congress in New York, and still better
how year or two later, during his visit
to Europe, where he received calls from
Princes, aud was invited to dine with
Dukes, and was flattered by poets, he
beat all the great players Of the world,
including the German chess king, An.
derson But bis father having studied
law with the famous Edward Living
ston, then Supreme Judge Of Louisi.
ana, aud Paul having also read law be.
fore going to Europe, he resumed that
profession after his great chess con-
quests, aud since has been like any 9th
er quiet aud unassuming lawyer. His
grandfather was a Spaniard, OF Madrid;
his father was born in Charleston aud
his mother was the descendant of a
French family from Santo Domingo.
This chlralrous kuight.errant of chess
IS OF short stature aud slight build,
dapper little dark haired man Of the
South, who, as he trips along from his
office on Royal street, would be the last
man one would suppose had won such
triumphs at home aud abroad He is
now thirty hve years old, aud, being
bali a Ffenchman, Of course speaks
that tongue with equal facility to Eu.
glish.

Lack of Appreciation of Country Life.

People who live altogether In the coln.
try, have very little appreciation Of its
advantages and pleasures. Why should
they think anything of fresh air It Is too
common. They have il all the time. Every
body around them has it all the time. Aud
as a general thing, people estimate very
lightly blessings of which they have never
been deprived. Il is only persons, who
are confined portion of the time In the
city, who are really capable Of full ap.
preciatlon Of country life. Farmers, who
work the land for living, soon come 10
regard all its products with single eye I'd
profit. There is something very narrow
ing in this influence. II closes the view I'd
beauty and the soul against all the poeticai
and enEobling sentiments which a proper
contemplation of nature is calculated I'd
awaken. The tendency with farmers is I'd
become too exclusively mere matter of. fact
machines. The sunshine, the clouds, the
trees, the refreshing showers, the beautiful
wild fiowers--they see nothing in all these
except far as they may effect their potatoes
and turnips and corn. We believe that one
principal reason of the higher taste for
raral life in England, is To be found in the
factthat city people live so much more In the
country. The great increase of the facili :
ties Tor travel has cultivated taste Tor
country life.

Toothache, Earache, Etc.

A little book just published, entitled
" First Help in Accidents" speaks of
these complaints, so prevalent at this
season Of the year, as follows
IL is Il bad practice to put cotton
wool, soaked in laudanum or chlorolorm,
into che ear for the relief Of toothache.
1t 10 true that it may sometimes prove
eiiectual, and procure a nights rest,
for the connection between the teeth
and ear is very close. But let it be
borne in mind that the ear is far too
delicate aud valuable an organ to be
used as medium for the application of
strong remedies for disorders of the
teeth, aud that both laudanum aud
ehlorolorm, more especially the latter,
are powerful irritants, and that such
applications are always accompanied
with risk. The teeth should be looked
after for themselves, by some competent t.
dentist; and if toothache spreads to the
ear, this is another reason why they
should be attended to at once for pro.
longed pain in the head, arising from
the teeth, may itself injure the hearing.
In earachc everything should be done
to sooth it, aud all irritating applica.
tions should be avoided Pieces Of hot
iig or onion should on no account be
put in but warm hannels should be
applied, with poppy fermentation extern.
