Washington correspondent makes
The President say he had read that
80 CUian Insurgents captured as
prisoners OF war had been slot or

confirmation, he was prepared to
hear Of its confirmation after what
had already occurred in Cuba. He
was satisfied that the Spanish Gov
ernment did not and would not ap
prove OF such butchcry. 1t was 4
matter which an enlightened nation
could not overlook. If. indeed,
this method OF warfare was necessa-

eB- The Southern negroes have super
stition that if, when upon the road, a rab-
bit crosses the road before them it is sign
of bad luck. A crowd of girls and boys
were on their way to a country school,
when hare being frightened from its
burrow, ran across the road in front of the
party. The girls instantly, and with one
accord, turned quickly around three times
on their heels, pulled of their -bonnets,
spat in them, turned them inside out, and,
placing them again on their heads, wore
them thus to school, congratulating them
selve on the way that by these very essen
tial man@uvers they had averted some spe-
cies of bad luck that was about to befall
them. The boys likewise turned on their
heels and spat in their hats. One of the
boys who had never before Witnessed such
silly proceeding, was very much amused
and laughed heartily at his companions.
The girls looked upon him with an express
sion of horror and with clasped and wiring
ing hands implored him to follow their ex-
ample. This he refused to do, and they
set upon him with violence, pulled his hat
from his head, and made him spit in it,

The idea Of the Spinning Jenny.

James Hargreaves dropped upon his
knee and rolled upon the floor at length.
He lay with his face toward the floor,
and made lines and circles with the end Of
burnt stick. He rose and went to the
fire to burn his stick. Then he sat upon q
chair and placed his head between his
hands, his elbows on his knees, and gazed
his feet, and replied to some feeble question
of his wife, who had not risen since the
day she gave birth to little stranger, by
loud assurance that he had it &; and, tax
ing her in his sturdy arms in the blanket,
the baby in her arms, he lifted her out and
held her over the black drawing on the
floor. These he explained, and she joined
in small, hopeful, happy laugh with his
high-toned assurance that she should never
again toll at the spinning wheel; that he
should never again 'play," and have his
loom standing for want of weft.
sour fortune is made when this is
made" said he, speaking of his drawing
on the floor.
"What will you call itq" asked his
wife.
"Call it? What and we call it after
thyself-Jenny They called thee Spin
ming Jenny 'afore had thee, because thou
beat every lass in Stanchill Moor at the
wheel. What if we call it the Spinning
Jenny?'"
The Spinning Jenny could spin twelve
threads, instead of one, as by hand-spin-
ming.
The populace broke the machine to
pieces, and poor Hargreaves' heart at the
same time.
Richard Arkwright, common barber,
caught the idea of Hargreaves, improved
upon it, realized half million sterling,
and became Sir Richard Arkwright, whose
son, in 1843, died the richest commoner in
| England.

Tough on the Fish.

A devout clergyman sought every oppor-
tunity to impress upon the mind of his
son that the falling sparrow attracts his
attention, and that His loving kindness is
over all His works Happening one day,
to see crane wading in quest Of food the
good man pointed out to his son the per-
feet adaptation of the crane to get his liv-
ing in that manner. "See," said he
how his legs are formed for wading
What long slender bill he has Observe
how nicely he folds his feet when putting
them in or drawing them out of the water
He does not cause the slightest ripple
He is thus enabled to approach the fish,
without giving them any notice of his ar
rival. 1t is impossible, my son, to look at
that bird without recognizing the goodness
Of God in thus providing the means of sub
sistence."
Yes," replied the boy, 81 think see
the goodness of God, at least so far as the
crane is concerned but after all, father,
don't you think the arrangement little
