4 yVoaderfuI spider.

New Orleans boa is Of the most
wonderful spider that ever spun a
web. Her home is in a certain ear
penter's shop, which is also the abode
of a mouse. The latter was accustom-
ed, when on a predatory excursion, to
emerge from a hole under the bench
where the spider dwelt, and pass into
the carpenter shop where the bench
stands. The enterprising spider, which
no doubt watched for long time the
laid trap for the unsus-
pecting Young mouse, and one morn
ing. when it started on its daily rounds
the little spider, which was on the look
out. tightened the thread which she
had prepared for her victim, whose
hind legs had been entangled in them
as they passed out of the hole, and
soon secured it. Immediately after
the legs had been caught, the spider
fastened another thread to the mouse's
tail, aud after several hours consta nj
work, succeeded in raising her preys
hind quarters, aud continued doing so
until the tip Of the mouse's nose only
touched the floor. Although the
mouse hung suspended, dead weight
the thread never gave way, and the
spider continued working until her
prisoner was quite secure. This un-
heard of capture of a mouse by so
small an insect, and its ingenious man
ner of eleyating it, has excited the
wonder and admiration Of thousands
of visitors, among whom may be men
toned several scientific men and
physicians.

II was night. Jerusalem slept q,
quietly amid her hills as a child upon
the breast Of It's mother. The noiseless
sentinel stood like n statue at his post,
and the philosophers lamp burned
dimly in the recess Of his chamber.
But a moral darkness involved the
nation in its uncnlightened shadows.
Reason shed faint glimmering over
the minds Of men like the cold and
insufficient shining Of distant star.
The immortality Of mans spiritual na
ture was unknown, his relation to
Heaven undiscovered, and his future
destiny obscured in a cloud of myste-
ry. 1t was at this period that two
forms Of ETHEREAL mould hovercd about
the land of Gods chosen people. They
came, sisters and angels, sent to earth
on some embassady Of love. The one

tenancc the contrast Of the other. She
was dropping like flower mois.ened
by refreshing dew, and her bright and
troubled eyes scanned them with ar
dent but varying glances. Suddenly
light like the sun flashed out from the
heavens, and Faith and Hope hailed
with exciting song the ascending Star
of Bethlehem. Years rolled away,
and stranger was seen in Jerusalem.
He was weak, unassuming man
whose happiness seemed to consist in
acts Of benevolencc to the human race.
There were deep traces Of sorrow in
his countenance, though no one knew
why he grieved, for he lived in the
practice Of every virtue, and was lov-
ed by all the good and wise.
By-and-by it was rumored that the
stranger worked miracles, that the
blind saw, the dumb spoke, the dead
arose; the ocean moderated its chafng
tide, the very thunder articulatej.

toyfi~ Weddings.

4 gentleman who witnessed a Cop
tic wedding in Cairo says that when
the two brides entered the room they
were guided 10 their places. There
was not the slightest recognition be-
tween them and their respective bride
grooms, and from the beginning to
the end there was no more sign of life
in them than if they had been two
mummies. There was a great deal Of
swinging of censors, and the priests,
one after the other, read and spelled
ceremony in Coptic, a language that
is little understood even by the Copts
themselves; but it was not until the
service drew TO n close that anything
was said to the couples, when an EN-
broidered scarf of some rich texture
was handed to the officiating clergy
man, and this he bound round the
head of the bridegroom, and then pass
ing it directly from the crown of his
head repeated the process of winding
it about the head of the bride. After
this the priest placed n kind of crown
or frontal diadem of gold on the head
of each person, which was worn until
the conclusion of the ceremony. The
priest also received and blessed two
rings in each case, for the bridegroom
and bride, and then, after what had ap-
peared to be an exhortation, the brides
were led away by their attendants, and
the two bridegrooms descended to at
tend the entertainment OF their guests.

Regisfrred Letters.

Il is strange that the practice Of reg
isiering letters containing money has
not long since been abandoned by the
Post Office Department, inasmuch as
experience has shown that the registra-
tion of letter gives clew to the
mail robber, while it really gives no
security to either the writer of the let
ter, or the person to whom it is direct
I'd. If the post Office clerk or mes
senger continues to steal registered
letters for any length Of time, he is
pretty certain to be caught as it was
in the case of the messenger arrested
at May6eld, the other day, who had
been riiiing the mails for five years
past. But conviction of the guilty
party only secures the removal of a
dishonest post Office employe; ii does
not restore the stolen money. for the
Post Office Department assumes no
responsibility. In the Mayfield case,
the Post Office Department had de-
tailed fifteen special agents at different
times during five years to detect the
robber, and yet he defed detection,
although he had taken $4,000 during
that time from registered letters. The
registration system should be abolish
ed. The money order system has SO
far afforded complete security, both in
thi: country and in Europe, because
the thief can do nothing with stolen
money order. He can neither sell it
nor collect the money! Louisville

The following rules are worthy oi

LATTE Lacfa Zarcfe.

One Of the most remarkable human
beings ever seen in this county, or
perhaps in any other, arrived in this
city last week, and is stopping at the
81. Charles Hotel, with her parents,
direct from Mexico. and unknown to
the American public. This child
Lucia Zara,e. was born at Vera Cruz,
and is said to be twelve years old. She
is twenty inches high and weighs
scarcely more than five pounds.
Imagine a French doll walking and
talking to you and some idea of her
appearance can be had. Standing on
a parlor floor her head reaches about
TO the seat Of an ordinary chair and
yet her limbs ard body are in all
respects well prorortioned. Mrs.
Belkuap could get no more than one
toe of her foot into the Mexican girls
shoes. Her head. about as big as
big mans fist, is well shaped and GOV.
cred with brown hair. The only thing
out IF line with her size is her nose;
that was evidently made for larger
girl, but it will do. She has bright
black eyes, and is intelligent, convers-
ing with little voice in the language
Of her parents. She runs and plays
about the room as if she enjoyed her
little life, and salutcs and bids adieu
To her guests with evident propriety.
Iu the way of joke she offered TO
carry a fat reporter on her back, and
stopping over asked him to climb up
on her shoulders, The little midget
will astonish any one who sees her, be-
cause she is so tiny and so human.
Standing by the side of Tom Thumb,
she would reach to his elbow, aud the
General would look like an oyergrown
aud bloatod ari,tocrat. The Lillipu-
tian is to be taken to the Centennial
Exposition, aud only stops here for II
few days 10 consult doll dreSs-makers
about the latest fashions. New Or

The Germans, who set 80 good an
example 10 the rest Of the world 10 so
many ways, make the culinary art a
pait Of woman's education. The well
to-do tradesman, like the mechanic
takes pride in seeing hi. daughters
housekeepers. To effect this object
the girl, on leaving school, which she
does when about fourteen years Of age,
goes through the ceremony Of confr.
nation. and then Is placed by her
parents with a country gentleman, or
in a large family, where she remains
one or two years. filling what may
also be called the post of servant, or
doing the work Of one. This i look
ed upon as an apprenticeship to do
mesticate economy. She differs from
a servant, however, il this-she re.
ceives no wages on the contrary, her
parents often pay for the cure taken
Of her, as well as her clothing.
That is the first step in her
education as housckeepcr. She
next passes, on tho same conditions,
into the kitchen of private family;
or into that of a hotel Of good re.
pnte. Here she has control of the ex-
penditures of the servants employed
in it, and assists personally in cooking,
but is always addressed as Miss. and is
treated by the family with Difference
and consideration. Many daughters
Of rich families receive similar train
ing, with this difference. however, that
they receive it in princely mansion
or a royal residence. There is a reign
ing queen in Germany ut the present
time who was trained in this way.
Consequently the women in Germany
are perfect models of economy, and
understand the art Of housekeeping
thoroughly.

on a royal order in council, which was
in direct opposition to nm act of the
Burgesses, and Henry was employed
to oppose them. though the law was
completely in their favor. The result
was remarkable. The awkward youth
rose to speak in the midst of derisivc
smiles from the clergy, who were
present in great numbers. His head
hung down, and his voice faltcred.
But soon an astonishing trans!orma-
ton took place in his appearance. The
head rose erect, the voice grew vibra-
ting and imperious, and he denounced
king, clergy, and Parliament, in terms
so violent an! overwhelming that he
was interrupted by cries Of 'TrcasonT
and the parsons left the court house in
bitter indignation. IIcnry's triumph
was complete. lie had played upon
the chords Of the popular heart with
The hand of n master. The jury de-
rided in his favor in open opposition
to all law; and the crowd, yielding to
passionate admiration, caught the
