Spiders Travelling by Balloon.

A correspondent of the Scientific
american relates singular incident.
In company with other persons, he was
crossing Seneca Lake on the 10th of Oc-
tober, when small wave was seen near
the center of the lake, caused by the
moving of some insects. Upon investi-
eating the matter, it was found that
three spiders were gliding over the sur
face of the water, and attached to them
was single thread, the size of a knit
ting needle, extending in the air to the
height of 80 feet, at an angle of 60 de-
grees, and terminating with an enor-
NOUS balloon-shaped web. This latter
was judged to be eight feet long and
five feet wide, with stays fastened to the
main thread, something similar to those
of balloon, and it was managed, appa-
rently, by an innumerable number of in
sects stationed at proper intervals. The
party attempted to obtain closer view,
but when within few feet of the web, it
began to rise, and the last spider, which
proved to be about the size of house
fly, was brought back by the stroke of
an oar. The balloon went onward and
upward until lost to sight.

MIR. Choate Conquering a Jury.

We once heard Rufus Choate make an
argument five hours long to jury. The
statement of his case, the reasoning, the
appeals to the sensibilities of the jury,
were over in two hours. Still the advo-
cate continued speaking, repeating with
additional Yehemence what he had said
before, with new illustrations and argu-
ments. We looked at the jury in order
to discover the cause of this seemingly
useless expenditure of mind and force.
Eleven of them were palpably convinced;
the twelfth, the foreman, hard-headed,
mimaginative,. unimpressible man of
business, had on his face look of in
credulity. Choate devoted three hours
to the task of breaking down the will of
this one man, and of compelling him to
admit the cogency of reasoning which
was foreign to his habits of thought.
He did not stop, and we then thought he
never would stop until he had conquered
this disbeliever. It seemed for some
time that hours of talking would be of
no avail. At rast, however, the hard
countenance softened, the stony eyes
were moistened, the lips lost their rigid
ity-in short, the whole man collapsed.
Then Choate concluded his argument in
a few quiet and telling sentences, and
sat down, sure of verdict.-E. p.

Dangers from Science.

They propose now to burn metals by
electricity on steamboats, to save bulk
and cost in fuel. Practicable, no doubt,
remarks the Boston Transcript; but
what becomes of Jim Bludso and his
Prairie Bell, and all that tar-barrel school
of lurid light literature? Who will show
us, under the new dispensation of chem
icals, hero who can approach him in
profanity or polygamy? Indeed, we
doubt if the public could be electrified
to the same extent as the picture shown
in the strongest calcium light of themost
heroic disciple of Tyndall, clinging Wild
ly to the negative pole of a battery, his
hair on end, by turn shouting the formu-
la for sulphuric acid and denouncing the
calculus, while his craft slowly but stead
lily and gracefully yielded to the law of
gravitationl We have no quarrel with
science. Let her demolish at pleasure
what little there is left to live for. Let
her go on as she begun, conquering and
to conquer Let her bring the poles to-
gether if she will, and bind them round
and round with the equator. But let
her not eliminate Jim Bludso from his
place in letters. We cannot spare him.

Good Breeding.

An anecdote is told of a certain set of
young ladies which hints at great deal
concerning the education of our "upper
classes" So far as manners are con-
cerned," says the narrator, Sc I am
bound to say that the worst cases of
rudeness and ill-breeding that have ever
come to my knowledge have not occurred
in the rural DISTRICTS nor among the
lower ten thousand, but in those circles
of America where the whole aim of life
might seem to be the cultivation of its
excellencies. For instance, I know a
watering place, where the story is cur
rently told of certain young ladies, who
have what is called position in So
ciety," and who, after refusing an invita-
ton to the house of a lady not quite
admitted to such a position, yet did not
disdain to go by night and sit on her
piazza during the entertainment, with
out her knowledge, to look through the
windows at her guests, and finally to
partake of her supper, brought to them
surreptitiously by an obsequious cavalier.

A Dose of ODium.

The dose of opium recommended by
Hahnemann is tao decalL5oa,th parts of
O. qrian. Now the diameter of the
earth is about eight thousand miles.
The population of the world is about
eight hundred millions. A homeopathic
dose of medicine is two decillionth parts
of a grain. From one grain of opium
divide an atomic particle, which shall
bear the same proportion to a whole
grain that sphere thousandth part of
an inch in diameter. bears to our globe ;
divide the particle among the whole
population of the world; cause each
person to swallow homeopathic dose
erery second, and it would require
twenty million years for them to swallow
the particle described. Hahnemann
says he has seen a drop of nux-vomica
at the decillionth degree produce exactly
half the effect of another at the quintil-
honth degree and then he adds: "H
the patient is very sensitive, it will be
sufficient to smell O. ohiaL that contains
one of the gLo6ules. After the patient
has smelled it, the phial is to be cork
ed up for future use. -" Doctors ana

Good Cooking.

It has been practically demonstrated
that the good health of the community
depends more upon good cooking than
upon anything else, and yet cooking Is
the only art that is nowhere systemati-
cally taught. More of practical lessons
in our private schools for girls in this
line would be an advantage. Home edu-
cation by competent heads of families
on the subject is also very desirable. If
large portion of the attention which is
given to dress, of which there is now an
over and silly abundance, was directed
to the careful study and practice of
cooking, SO as to attain to excellence
and economy in the art, good health
would be promoted. Good dispositions
would naturally follow for dyspepsia,
engendered from badly cooked food,
would no longer beget bad temper, and
the peace of the household and happi-
ness of the family would be greatly i'm
proved

change papers pleaze copy, and has
frantik tale.-Josh Billings.
WHY don't farmers engage more large
ly in growing basket-wood. There is
nothing that will pay better. The de-
mand for this material is yearly becom-

growing less. In fact, its entire disap-
pearance is no far-off possibility. Every
season makers are obliged to economize
more, and in very few years quart
strawberry baskets viii have to have
corks tied to them to keep them In sight.

and ordered aplate of beans. On finish
ing his lunch he asked the price. Thir-

make few extra cents. Isn't that a
devil of price for beans ?" asked the
stranger Failing to get reduction he
paid the bill and left. The next day the
saloon-keeper received telegram, the
charge on which was thirty cents. On
being opened, it was found to contain
neither date nor signature, but only
the words "Isn't that devil of a
price for beans ?"
