A Fish's Care of Its Young

An English writer publishes an inter-

the habits of member of the perch
family in the nurture of her yonng.
He says "While on the point of t king

The clear, pebbly streams that find their
way into the plains from the northern
mountain-rauges of Trinidad, my atten-
tion was attracted by the eccentric move
ments of small fish of the perch tribe.
In general, this fish is extremely shy,
scudding off into deep water, or under
some over-hanging bank, on the ap-
proach of man. On this occasion, how
ever, on putting my hand into the wa
ter, the fish, TO my astonishment, darted
forward again and again, striking my
hand with considerable force. Rather
at loss to account for such temerity in

its movements narrowly, and at last
found out the cause. In small hollow

cd, and were no larger than common
house fies. The parent fish kept jeal-
ous watch over her progeny, re; enting
any attempt on my part to touch them.
Next morning, accompanied by my
father and brothers, returned to the
spot, which l had carefully marked the
day before. For some time, however,
we searched in vain tor the fish and her
young. At length. few yards further
up the stream, we discovered the parent
guarding her fry with jealous care, in a
cavity similarly scooped ont of the
coarse sand. Any attempt to Introduce
ones finger was vigorously opposed by
the watchful mother. This is the first
and only instance that has come under
my notice of fish watching over her
young, and conveying them. when
threatened by danger, to some other
place"

EAST,

Three drivers of mail wagons in New
York have been arrested, charged with rlfling
letter bags.
Mayor Wickham, in his message to
the common council OF New York city, says
the liabilities Of the city are reported by the
comptroller at l1,0O1, $40, but in addition
there is floating debt Of from $40, 900, 900 to
$2O,OOO 1000.
The message of Gov. Tilden says New
York has large interest in the financial policy
Of the United States, and that tho additional
issue Of legal tenders or bank notes is an ilu-
sion. An increase of currency will now cause
distress. In reference to tho constitutional
amendments, the governor says: "The
questions settled by the war are never to be
reopened. The adoption of the 18th, 18th aud
18th amendments to the federal constitution
closed one great Grain urpolitics. 1t marked
the end forever to the system of human slavery
and OF the struggles that grew out of that
system. These amendments have been con-
clusively adopted by the people Of all sections;
they close the chapter; they are and must be
final; all parties hereafter must accept and
stand upon them, and henceforth our politics
are to turn upon questions of the present and
future, not upon those Of the settled and final
past

Good Things About Mules.

Mules are easier kept than horses be-
cause they eat less and will keep in
good condition on poorer food. They
are by far lees liable to disease. They
are more hardy and will endure degrees
of heat and cold that would greatly in
iure horses. Ii they sometimes refuse
to go, they are rarely known to run
away, and, accordingly, they do not
break harness, wagons, and carts, not
to speak of legs and arms. They are
not naturally vicious, and most of their
bad characteristics may be ascribed TO
defective education and to bad ex-
amples.
The power of endurance OF mules is
much beyond that of horses. They are
also sure.footed. They are, accordingly,
better adapted as beasts of 5nrden to
travel in warm climate, to endure IA
tigue, and to make trips over noun
tains. Mules are almost the only re-
lance of the inhabitants of Central and
South America. They are used for
drawing plows, harrows, and harvest
ers, and for taking produce to market,
and for all purposes of travelling. In
the southern states they perform nearly
as many useful purposes, and there is
hardly cotton, cane, or tobacco raiser
who would think that he could raise
one of these crops without the use of
males.
For blowing between the rows of cul-
tivated crops the mule is in many re-
spects the superior of the horse. His
feet are smaller and, accordingly, do
less damage in stepping upon plants.
His skin is tougher, and therefore is not
SO liable to be injured by defective har-
ness. The gait is more uniform and
accordingly the driver is not so likely to
become wearied. As a rule, mules are
less liable to become irritated and frac-
tious on account Of the presence of
bites of insects, and, consequently, DO
less damage to crops among which they
work.
Mules may be put to work much
earlier than horses. There is in this
respect at least the advantage of one
year in the favor of the mule. In other
words, the mule will do as much work
when three years old as the horse will
when four. The mule not only begins
to pay h 8 way much earlier but con-
tinues to be useful much later in life.
We have repeated accounts Of mules
continuing to do good service after they
were forty years old. A mule, the
property OF the late Prof. Mapes, OF
New Jersey, was healthy, active. and
fit for labor when it was sixty years old.
1t is urged that the mule is slow and
awkward, but these faults are largely
the results OF bad breeding. As rule,
no care is taken in breeding mules. The
dams OF most mules are animals that nc
farmer would want to raise colts from.
They are themselves slow and awkward
and oftentimes lame and diseased. 1t il
not to be wondered at that these defect,
reappear in the ofisprjngs OF these ami
mails. Horses would be SLOW and awk
ward il they were raised from animalI
of this sort, and we can expect nothing
different in the case Of the mules.
