How the Spider Spins.

Most people have too great an an tipathy to spiders to spend even few in watching them. But we must confess that we rather cultivate their acquaintance, as they catch and devour our enemies, the flies. The spinning apparatus of a spider is very curious. On the under part of the body are several small prominences GOV holes, through which exudes a gummy substance which hardens on exposure to the air. Thus each little hole pro- duces 8 thread of inconceivable fine ness and when these many threads are joined together, they form what we see as a single thread. When spider wishes to forna web, if he belongs to the race of geometrical spiders, which build wheel-shaped web, he selects some convenient place, and proceeds to lay the foundation by attaching the spokes of his wheel to proper objects j; he then commences at the centre formed by the crossing of these lines and trav- els round and round, spinning his web, employing his 1eelers as guides as to distance. He always uses the outer web as pathway, and every time he crosses one of the spokes he attaches his line to it. When he has finished, he takes his position at the centre, head downward, and waits for the unlucky insect which he is sure will soon happen along. As soon as he perceives that some awkward fly has run against his delicate framework, he bounces out on him and quickly ties him fast hand and foot, so that he may devour him at leisure. But it is not alone for laying traps and tying fast his unlucky victims that the spider uses his web. If he wants to cross from one tree to another, or from one side of stream to the lop- posite, he uses the web for a bridge. This he constructs by taking a favorable position and then spinning web, which he lets float in the wind. As soon as ii strikes some object to which it adheres, he pulls it, to see that it is secure, and then crosses on this single line. This is an achievement in engineering that far surpasses the suspension bridges
 built by human skill. Here is bridge
 oftentimes from fifty to one hundred
 feet long, spun by so insignificant al
 insect that we may have some trouble
 to find him, yet streng enough to bea1
 his weight safely. When @ spider
 wishes to descend from an elevation, he
 attaches the end of his web to some ob
 ject and then boldly launches off, spin
 ming as he goes. When he gets down
 he cuts the line and leaves it, unless ht wishes to return immediately, in whicl
 case he coils it up and takes it along a,
 he ascends.

 A DIRECTOR RoBBED.-One of the Di- rectors of the Bowery Bank drew $500 in bills in the middle sf the day, and immediately after leaving the office he was attacked by gang of robbers, who succeeded in depriving him of the amount before any assistance could be rendered by tAe police. The method employed to rob him was sf a novel character The gang of thieves watch ed their opportunity as he left the bank, and while one blindfelded hin by wrapping large shawl round his head and shoulders, the others extracted the money from his pocket The whole transaction did not occupy. more than one minute, and by the time the Direc- tor had removed the shawl the robbers were out.of sight, and no clue has been obtained which could lead to their de- lection.

A Dangerous Atmosphere.

The great atmospheric wave which, the meteoro- 1ogists tell us, sweeps over the whole United States from the Pacific coast at this season, is loaded with unwholesome vapors that chill the body disturb all it's functions. Precipitation is checked the stomach is deranged, the bowels and the liver sympathize with that organ, the nerves and muscles are affected, pulmonary complaints are engendered, and the spirits more or less depressed. These are among the common effects produced by the moist, ungenial winds prevalent in the winter months. But if the system is toned and fortified in advance with Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, no danger need be apprehended from any condition of the atmosphere The i'll wind that blows nobody any good'' will not be likely to blow any harm to him who strengthens and regulates his internal organs with this wholesome vegetable tonic and alternative, and clothes his outside in manner suitable to the season. The seeds of fever and ague and other diseases of an intermittent or remittent type, are now in the air, and liable to be planted in the system to germinate and bring forth bitter fruit, either ediately at later period, unless due sanitary precautions are taken to ward them off, Of all safeguards against mala- ria, this famous vegetable aDtidote is the bes and of all remedies for the painful ailments caused by damp, cold and sudden changes of temperature, such as rheumatism, chills irregularities of the bowels, bilious attacks and indigestion, it is the most reliable and the most agreeable

Canned Peas.

The American Grocer remarks that the process of canning peas does not destroy their flavor in the least. It, however, takes ftom them their pretty green color, and they become grayish pale green, which, to some, appears ob- jectionable; and to obviate that the manufacturers haveresorted to process of artifcially greening them, which, however 1t may improve their appear ance, is decidedly most pernicious practice, for not only does it take from them their delicious flavor, but makes them exceedingly injurious to those who partake of them. To such an ex- tent has this practice been carried on, and so notable have been its pernicious effects, that the French Government have passed very stringent laws prohib- iting the sale of such vegetables, arti- ficially greened, insthat country. The goods are, however, still put up to 8 very great extent and sent to this coun- try, and people, in most cases, believe them to be the finest goods, because they bring the highest price and have the finest color. There is one test. however, by which they can quickly de- eide between the peas of natural color and those artifeially greened, and that is, to taste them. They will find the greened ones fayorless.

A SINGULAR CAsE.-A case of some interest, bearing upon the power of the chief magistrate of a city to violate an ordinance sanctioned by himself, was lately decided at Detroit, Mich. Mayor Mofat, of that city, some time since twice tore down a :: smallpox sign" from the house of neighbor, and when called upon for an explanation declared that he had acted in this manner in order to protect the public health-a number of small boys having repeatedly collected in the vicinity of the sign, and made wagers which developed upon the winners the necessity of visiting the in- fected house. The Police Commission CTS were induced by the Common Coun cil to prosecute, and the Recorder, be- fore whom the matter came, has decreed payment of fine of $20O Whether the Mayor will obey, or appeal to higher court, has not been stated.

He Tried If.

A man in Kansas, whose front. name is John, tried new experiment. for cleaning the soot out of stove pipes the other day. He wrapped lot of pow der--some pounds more or less-in a paper and put it in the stove, and, in order to compel it to go up the pipe, shut the door, and placing his feet against it, heroically awaited the result, like mule with a howitzer strapped on his back. In due time it went of, and so did John. It was an even race to the door, but outside the powder was ahead. Whether it was disgusted at the vile uses to which it had been put, or whether the soot was too compact to be moved, is not known. At any rate, as a cleansing method John thinks it is failure, but as private earthquake, where the excited population go up in balloon, as it were, and come down more or less mangled, is free to main tain that it is decided success.

had the boat, which contained nine persons-namely, the captains wife, the boatswain, four laborers, including Biddiss, and three of the ships crew got alongside the tug, when, by the glean of the last rocket in the sky and the lights from the tug, the fgurehead of the Northfeet was seen to sink slow ly under water. The crowded stern rose up in the air, and with a loud rush. ing noise, almost immediately disap- peared under water, leaving between 300 and 400 people struggling for their lives in the water. The shrieks of the sinking women and the loud cries of the men for help were awful, and must have been heard miles off. Some of those who could not swim were floating on barrels and pails, which they were obliged to leave hold of from sheer ex- haustion. Biddiss noticed one friend of his in the water-a married man, who, with his wife and only child, was clinging to 8 ladder, when wave came and washed all three off. The woman and child sank and never rose again. The unfortunate husband again man. aged to clutch the ladder, but it was out of his power to save his wife and child. Thirty-four people were picked up by the tug, which remained close to the spot for the whole night.

A Healthy State.

The vital statistics of New Jersey fol 1872 are furnished in the report of the Secretary of State, and very astonish- ing statistics they are. We assume, says New York paper, that the aver age population of the State of New Jer- sey for 1872 was not short of 953, ,O0O, .. e., abouE 23, 900 less than New York city. Yets its mortality record shows that the total deaths for the year amount to only 11,472, or little over third of eae od. ba ba m that G,t o New York died at the rate of thirty three per 1000 per annum, the fortu- nate Jerseymen had death rate of but twelve per 1,000-a figure that leaves Mentone, Nice, and the Isle of Wight nowhere We doubt if any other State can show a health bill equal to that of New Jersey.

BRIDAL DRESSES. Bridal dresses are

BRIDAL DRESSES. dresses are invariably trimmed this season: Under the dress, of whatever material, is worn a petticoat of white silk, trimmed with three or four rather narrow founces, which are visible only in front. The front breadths of the dress are very plain, the fullness all being carried to the back, and arranged in such man ner as to form pouf behind without sensibly diminishing the train. A bunch of orange blossoms is set at the belt, to which is attached a large cordon of the same flowers, which is fastened near tho pouf, and falls thence over the train. The waist is always high, with small basques in the back and points in front. There is no overskirt except the illusion veil, which is long and full enough to envelope the whole figure. The dress is caught up little, so as to show the founces of the white silk pet
 icoat.

A TERRIBLE EARTHoUAKE IN INDIA An earthquake has occurred at the city of Lehree, in the territory of Scinde, attended by dreadful destruction of human life. Hundreds of dwellings, were laid inruins. On the first alarm the einhabitants rushed from their houses into the streets, where many met their death from falling buildings, while those who remained within were in many instances buried among the ruins of their owndwellings. It is estimated that upward of 800 persons have been killed. Large numbers of animals were also deyoured by the earthquake. The earthquake extended over large tract of country, being distinctly felt at towns many miles distant from Lehree. The inhabitants of Lehree, after the first conyulsion was over, seized their moyables and fed to the mountains,

The Life Beneath Us.

It will be good for animals, but better yet for men, when generation shall be taught that all living things are the Lords, and that in their narrow sphere they have rights of happiness which cannot be wantonly destroyed without moral culpability.
 We must begin and teach children not to abhor insects, worms, and harm less reptiles. As it is, children are educated to dislike almost everything in creation that is not good to sell or to eat. It is large field upon which you enter. But besides the moral sense of men, which is gradually developing in the direction of the lower range of life, the progress of natural science is bring ing! men into far more kindly relations with the great under-realm than have heretofore subsisted. A simple Irish woman said to friend of mine, who was about to be married, Mary, my dear, always keep pig; you will find them such good company when you are lonesome. TT
 Whatever social virtues may be de- veloped by the pig, we think it emi- nently true that there is great deal of company in the vast and minute life beneath us, which will prove very good eompany,to all who study their habits and sympathize in their happiness Henry Ward Beecher.
