A New Household Pest.

Housekeepers may be interested in
learning that an insect called Anthre-
mus scrphularin, which devours and
ruins carpets, has appeared in such
numbers in Schenectady, that the car
pets all over that city have had to be
taken up and cleaned. In Utica it has
caused serious alarm. Carpets are not,
however, its only food, as il infests
wearing apparel hanging in closets OF
laid away in drawers. Unlike moths,
IL is said to prey upon cotton fabrics.
Ii is a very common and destructive
European insect, but has not until re
Gently been detected in the United
States. Its peculiar forte is the eating
Of carpets, and hence the familiar
name "carpet-bug,' which il has won.

Dermestidie, which comprises several
Of our most injurious depredstors on

Curious Thanksgiving Customs,

From the Montreal Gazette.
At the annual dinner at Clements
Inn Nondon), after the banquet OF
that learned society, members and
guests rise on the removal Of the white
cloth and witness the following thanks
giving in patomine. Before the presi-
dent of the second table the butler puts
mass of bread. consisting OF four
loaves adhereing to each other by their
kissing crusts. Taking this mass Of
bread in his hand, the said president OF
the second table slowly raises ii above
his head to the full reach of arm, and
after a few moments pause brings it
down with q laundering whack on the
oaken table. A second time the bread
is elevated and struck upon the re-
sounding board. Yet third time the
feat is performed; and then before
strangers have time to recover from
their astonishment. the grace actor has
thrown the bread so that it slides and
spins down TO the bottom OF the long
table, where il is caught up by the but
tier, who instantly runs ont OF the din
ing hall with il in his outstretched
hands. The whole grace is typical.
The four loves represent the -Four Cos
pels; the three elevations are in rev.
renee OF the Three Persons of the Sa-
cred Trinity; the manner in which the
bread is cast down the table indicates
the liberality with which the Bread OF
Life was given to mankind; and the
alacrity With which the butler ran out
of the hall exemplifes the alacrity with
which jealous servants hasten to distri-
butte the bread OF spiritual knowledge

A school-Boy on Corns.
From The Hartford Post.

FROM The Hartford Post
Corns are Of two kinds-vegetable
and animal. Vegetable corn grows in
rows; animal corn grows on toes.
There are several kinds of corn; there
is the unicorn, capricorn, corn dodg-
ers, field corn, and the corn which is
the corn You feel the most. 1t is said,
believe, that gophers like corn; but
persons having corBs do not like to go
fur, il they can help il. Corns have
kernels, and some Colonels have corns.
Vegetable corn grows on ears, but ami
NAL corn grows on the feet at the other
end OF the body. Aaother kind of
corn is the acorn; these kind grow on
oaks, but there is no hoax about the
corn. The acorn is a corn with an in
definite article indeed. Try il aud see.
Many man when he has corn wishes
it was an acorn. Folks that have corns
sometimes send for doctor and il the
doctor himself is corned he probably
won't do so we'll as il he isn't. The
doctor says corns are produced by
tight boots and shoes, which is proba-
bly, the reason why when a man is tight
they say he is corned. IL a farmer
manages we'll, he can get a good deal
OF corn on an acre, but / know of n
farmer that has one corn that makes
the biggest acher on his farmer. The
bigger crop of vegetable corn a man
raises the better he likes il; but the
bigger crop Of animal corn he raises
the better he does not like it. Another
kind OF corn is the corn-dodger. The
Saxit is made is .yery simnle. and is as
You go along the street and meet a
man you know has q corn, and a rough
character; then you step Oh the toe
that has n corn on it, and see il you
don't have occasion to dodge. In that
way you will find out what o corn
dodger is.

The Black Hills.

There are some ten settles" and
thirty different miners camps in the
Black Hills. The principal cities are
Deadwood and Custer. The latter last
year was the supply port. and contain
ed 5000 inhabitants. 1t has now
dwindled down to 400. There are Hill
City, Lead City, Montana, Gay City,
Elizabethtown and other camps. The
total population now in the Hills is
thought by the best informed to be
about 10000. How much gold has
been taken out by this swarm OF pros
pectors it is hard to tell. Some think
it will exceed $4,000. But even this
would be poor wages for the three
months work Of 1000 men, supposing
all have given their time to mining.
While some have doubtless made their
fortunes, the great mass have not made
grub" as the expression is. The
merchants and spectators in the vari-
pronrs, on eo,iFse they are doing
we'll, and are more than satisfied with
the prospects. The freighting teams
and stage lines are also making good
thing. Gold dust circulates freely, and
greenbacks are at q discount Pretty
much all the stores, saloons, hotels and
Offices have scales and make their bar
ter in dust" reckoning it at s20 per
ounce.
