A Very Cunning Cricket.

In Southey's History of Brazil" he
tells wonderful story of how Cabeza
de Vaca was in a great ship going to
South America, with 4O5 men and thir-
ty horses, and after they had crossed
the equator the commander discovered
there were only three casks of water
left. He gave orders to make the near
est land, and for three days they sailed
for the coast. A poor, sick soldier who
had left Cadiz with them, brought a
grillo, or ground cricket with him,
thinking it's cheerful voice would amuse
him on the long, dreary voyage; but,
to his great disappointment, the little
insect was perfectly quiet the whole
way. The fourth morning after the
ship had changed her course, the crick-
ct, which knew what she was about, set
up her shrillest note. The soldier at
once gave a warning to the officers in
charge of the vessel, and they soon saw
high, jagged rocks just ahead Of them
The watch had been careless, and the
great ship in a few moments would
have been dashed to pieces on the
lodges, if the puny creature had not
scented the land and told them of their
danger. Then they cruised along fol
some days, and the cricket sang fo1
them every night, just as cheerily as if
she had been in far-off Spain, till they
got to their port, the island of Catalina.

CONSERVATIVES, TAKE NoTICE.-Every moment of
delay makes your cure more hopeless, and much
depends on the judicous choice of remedy. The
amount Of testimony in favor of DR.. ScEenck's Pull
monte Syrup, as cure for consumption, far ex-
ceeds all that be brought support the preten-
sons Of any other medicine. See DR.. Schenckc
Almanac, containing the certificates Of many per-
sons Of the highest responsibility, who have been
restored to health, liter being pronounced ncura-
BILE by physicians of acknowledged ability.
Schencks Pulmonic Syrup alone has cured many,
as these evidences will show; but the cure is often
promoted by the employment of two other reme-
dies which DR.. schenck provides for the purpose.
These additional remedies are Schencks Sea Weed
Tonic and Mandrake Pills. By the timely use of
these medicines, according to directions, DR..
schenck certifes that most any of Consump-
ton may be cured.

The Manufacture of Nitro-Glycerine.
From the Springfield Republican.

From the Springfield Republican,
Professor Mowbray will put up two
story wooden building at North Adams,
Mass, one hundred feet by eighteen, on
the site of his late glycerine works. 1t
is intended to so model theIew works
that by supply of warm or cold air,
and warm and cold water, with leaden
floor, the risks from nitro-glycerine,
and from thawing out when it has con
gealed, will hereafter be entirely re-
moved. At the close of each days
work the last vestiges, whether Of nitro
acid vapors, or water impreg-
mated with the same, will be entirely
cleared away. AS originally construct
ed these works were not complete in
this respect, and although frequent re-
construction and additions have been
made from time to time, still the un-
willingness to tear down and use pick
and crowbar over the site of the old
buildings prevented a thorough re-
arrangement; this will now be done, and
it is believed that hereafter an accident.
so far as eight years experience can
suggest Or provide, will be an impossi-
bility. About two hours work every
day will be the limit of manufacturing
Only fifteen minutes of this time will
be used in handling the explosive
material; the remainder of the time
will be spent in clearing up and prepar-
ing for the next days run. Thus dan
ger will at least be reduced to a min
imum.

An TmitatOr of LOuiSe TatAau.

From the London Times Paris Correspondence.
On January il the case of Miss Err
nestlne Hauser came ON before the
Civil Court of Breisach, Grand Duchy
of Baden Miss Hauser is the young
lady who stated to her parents and her
physician that several priests had in
duced her to wear a tight rope round
her loins as sure means of pleasing
the Deity. When on the brink of the
grave by this constant torture, an at
tempt was made to cup her feet and
produce stigmata. The skin being
filled with blood owing to the pressure
exercised by the rope, this cupping &C
cording to medical opinion, would be
sure to produce prolonged bleeding.
One of the two priests concerned in
this affair and mentioned by the young
lady in her late confessions, brought an
action for libel against the physician
who had published the story. The &C
ton, however, was withdrawn previous
to trial. A little later the other priest
sued the girl for telling the physician
falsehoods at his expense. The case
was tried few days ago, and ended in
the acquittal of the young lady, virtu-
ally led to judicial confederation of
the alleged attempt to produce another
Louise Lateau. During the trial coun-
sci for the crown expressed regret that
the priests could not be prosecuted
without the consent of the young lady,
which he had failed to obtain

Iater.Day Honesty.

There is member of the Massachu-
sets Legislature named f.. y. Clapp,
who deserves special and honorable
mention as resident and legislator of a
state celebrated for the number and
rapacity of it's deadheads. He recently
returned railroad pass which had
been sent to him, on the high moral
ground that he did not consider 1T
proper for legislators to accept such
favors. This is the first incident of the
kind which has been recorded in Mas
sachusetts, though we believe some
thing like it happened in Missouri a
few years ago, when legislator who
had received a single pass declined it
on the grounds: l, That it was not a
season ticket; 2, that it was not trans
ferable; 3, that " he didn't live in that
direction;" 5, that if he did he could
walk it quicker" and that he would
"see them id first" Mr.. Clapp's
attitude has an advantage in point of
dignity and morality over that of the
Missouri law-giver, and we should say
that it was rathera novel ole in Massa-
chusetts, considering that one of her
railway officials testified the other day
In Court that he sometimes issued as
many as 400 free passes in day. 1t
requires the highest kind of courage to
go against social and business custom
SO deeply rooted as this, particularly in
Boston; and in our opinion Mr.. Clapp
deserves cast-iron statue In the mid
die of the Common representing him
in the act of trampling on a deadhead
ticket and waving off with scorn an i'm
aginary railroad director. He has, Sc
riously, done a very sensible and very
honorable thing; and it will now be
curious to see whether any Of his col
leagues, all of whom have doubtless
received free passes as usual, will fol
low his excellent example.-N. Y.
