HERE is list of some wonders to
be seen through microscope: In
sects of various kinds can be seen
in the cavities of grain of sand.
Mould is forest of beautiful trees,
with the branches, leaves, flowers
and fruits. Butterflies are fully
feathered. Hairs are hollow tubes.
The surface of our bodies is COW
cred with scales, like fish. A sim
gle grain of sand would cover one
hundred and fifty of those scales,
and yet a single scale covers five
hundred pores. Through these mar
row openings the sweat forces itself
out like water through sieve. The
mites make five hundred steps a
minute. Each drop of stagnant
water contains q world of animated
beings. swimming with as much lib
erty as whales in the sea. Each
leaf has colony Of insects grazing
on it, like oxen in a meadow. A
speck Of potato-rot tho size of a pin
head contains about two hundred fe-
rocious little animals, biting and
clawing each other savagely. The
male mosquito is decorated with
plumes like those of some tropic
bird. The eye of the common
house-fy is cut into facets, as dia-
monds sometimes are.
A Young PHILADELPHIA, threat
ened with a breach of promise suit,
says: "Sue away. Contracts made
on Sunday amt legal"
We learn by telegraph that the
bark Forest Queen encountered an
earthqua at sea on the 10th inst. :,

A NARROW ESCAPE FROM DEATH.-One day
last week Mr.. George burlington of Black
Strap, went into box stall in his barn to put a
ring in bulls nose, when the job was about
half completed the animal became enraged and
made for Mr.. burlington, goring him in the
face fearfully. One eye was entirely torn from
the socket and his face was badly lacerated by
this attack. Before the injured man could get
out Of the stall the bull caught him on his horns
and threw him up to the flooring overhead and
then out over the top of the STALL This second
encounter left him in very feeble condition.
He called for help and was taken to the house
where be received medical attendance, and it is
thought he will recover. 1t was very careless
for him to attempt such job unaided, and if
he RECEIVERS he will not be likely to repeat the
folly.
