ExtirpatiOn of Banditti.

One of the most ferocious and sue
successful of the brigand chiefs who had
been for many years the terror of Soth-
ern Italy has at last been hunted down
and his band dispersed. This company
of marauders does not appear to have
been very numerous, being only nine
persons, but their chief, Manzi, had pur-
sued his depredations so long and with
such uniform good fortune that dread of
power gave him the population of entire
villages as passive, if not active sympa-
thizers. Fortunately he had lately to
do with Project who found out the
safest and the readiest way of dealing
with such men. The Project or Salerno
did not cucumber his movements with a
formidable military force, so as to give
warning of its approach whenever it
went he treated Manzi as a wild beast
to be tracked to its lair and shot down
by any sportsman lucky enough to get
within reach. The brigand and his fol-
lowers, after various doublings, were
fairly caught in the tolls, when that hap
pened which has so often occurred to ex-
perienced tiger or bear hunters in India
and elsewhere. Manzi and his men,
brought to bay, turned fiercely ON their
pursuers and sold their lives as dearly as
they could. They killed one gendarme
and wounded three others, six of them
selves and their leader perishing in the
struggle. With the extirpation of this
scourge the province of Salerno is now
free from the incubus of brigandage,
and the worst legacy of it's former vi
cious and corrupt rule has been cast
aside

Keeping Faith.

Sir William Napier was one day tax
ing long country walk, when he met a
little girl about ) years old sobbing over
a broken bowl. She had dropped and
broken it, in bringing it back from the
field to which she had taken her fathers
dinner, and said she would be beaten on
her return home for having broken it.
As she said this, a sudden CLEAN of hope
seemed to cheer her. She innocently
looked up into Sir Williams face and
said !: "But you can mend it, can't
you?" he explained that he could not
mend the bowl, but the trouble he could
overcome by the gift of sixpence to
buy another. However, on opening his
purse it was empty of silver, and he
promised to meet his little friend on the
same spot at the same hour next day,
and to bring sixpence with him bid
ding her meanwhile to tell her mother
she had seen gentleman who
would bring her the money for a
bowl next day. The child, entirely
trusting him, went on her way comfort
ed. On his return home he found an
invitation awaiting him to dine in Bath
the following evening to meet some one
whom he especially wished to see. He
hesitated for some little time, trying to
calculate the possibilities of giving tie
meeting to his little friend of the broken
bowl and still be in time for the dinner
party at Bath, but finding this could
not be, he wrote to decline accepting
the invitation, on thepleaof previous
engagement" saying, {" / cannot disap-
point her she trusted me"

The Great st. Louis Tunnel.

One of the grandest undertakings ever
begun in st. Louis is the construction
of the railroad tunnel from the western
approach of the great bridge along
Washington avenue and Eighth street
to Clark avenue. The tunnel from
Third street to Clark avenue, to connect
our Eastern and Western railroads, is TO
be 4, 900 feet in length, with an open APP
proach of 900 feet walled in. Work was
begun on this gigantic enterprise last
November, but owing to an Indictment
winter very little progress WIS made
until about the middle of March, at
which time actual work seems to have
commenced, and the work done from
that time to the present has been salts
factory to the most sanguine friends of
st. Louis and the tunnel. The span of
the arches of the tunnel, of which there
are two, is fourteen feet clear, and the
height seventeen feet. The arches have
a depth of five length of brick springing
from wall of solid stone, whose founda-
ton is six feet thick the side walls are
five feet thick to the spring line, above
which the thickness of the line is four
feet the center wall is three feet in
thickness. All the brick work and ma
sorry is set in hydraulic cement. Ten
barge loads of Grafton stone are con-
sumed every week, and forty thousand
brick each day. The various labors
connected with the construction of the
tunnel give employment to not less than
fifteen hundred men and over two hun
dred teams.-,S. Louis Republican.

Dead Shot for Insects.

Strong alum water is a sure death to
bugs of any description. Take two
pounds of pulverized or of crystal alum,
and dissolve in three quarts of boiling
water, allowing it to remain over the
fire until thoroughly dissolved. Apply,
while hot, with brush, or, what is bet
ter, use syringe to force the liquid
into the cracks of the walls or bedstead.
The pulverized alum is worth 80 cents O
pound, and that in crystal from Is to &c
"a cheap remedy. The latter requires
little longer time to dissolve. OF
course an experiment to verify the claim
above made can be made by employing
a mere fraction Of the quantities above
named. A less perfect cure for insect
pests is to scatter the powdered alum
freely in places where they abide.
Powdered borax scattered thinly where
croton bugs and cockroaches travel or
abide, will e1pel them at once. 1t is a
sure expulsion for the croton insect.
Almost all strong saline solutions are
efficacious in the destruction of these
household pests, which are bob de-
structive and annoying, and the mixture
of alum or any other material need not
necessarily be hot.

How to Approach Strange Dogs.

In approaching strange dogs, it is best
to notice the eyes. The highest au-
thority we know of states that when a
dog is angry or excited the pupil is al
ways dilated, and that with ordinary
animals this sign may be implicitly de-
pended on, and that by waiting till
the pupil is again contracted they may
be approached in safety. Some breeds,
however, such as the bull-terrier and
st. Bernard, are of very uncertain tenn
per, and will sometimes snap without
any warning. With all such it is well
to be cautious but when approaches
become necessary, GOODNESS without pre-
sumption is the best policy. If you are
afraid, do not appear to be so if you can
help it, and the probability is that the
brute will submit. But it is best never
to approach large strange dog till you
know his disposition We have known
sad results from want of caution in this
respect. Savage dogs are best killed
and out of the way. But they are the ex-
ception the rule is affection the most
unbounded, devotion the most absolute,
fidelity the most inviolable, obedience
most perfect and all this, if you will,
you may have in your dog.-CdsseUs

Scottish system. In England more
than twice as many infants die of this
disorder than in Scotland.
On comparing these statistics with
those of the last United States census.
it will be seen that the chances of life
for infants in their first year are far
more favorable in this country than in
England, though not so favorable as in
Scotland. In the year ending May 81,
1870, there were born in the United
States 1,100,475 children. Of these
there died, during the same year, 4, 1853
by commissions, and ], 534 by diarrhea,
or one in 236 from the former cause, and
one in 724 from the latter. In England
the deaths from diarrhea amounted to
13S in 100000 infants, and in Scotland
to 66 in the same humber. 1t will be
seen, on computation, that the proper
ton of deaths from this cause are by a
very small fraction less in the United
States than in Scotland. But now are
we to attribute these very creditable re-
suits to our more rational system of
rearing children, or to the better social
condition of the population here p
