Prophecy as to Hayes.

from the chronological Journal, of
March, 1867. and is from the pen of that
eminent phrepologist, Mr.. Fowler, of
New York:
Mr.. Hayes is gool-sized. we'll formed
man, He is between the extreme of large
and small, or lean and stout. He is every
way We'll made. has handsome head on
rather handsome body, and a face which
would introduce him any where. His
complexion is light, skin fiOrid, temper
ament composed of the vital, motive, and
mental i'm almost equal proportions. He
is neither too fast nor slow, excitable nor
sluggish, but he is at once sufficiently en-
ergetic. original. comprehensive, digni-
fed and resOlutc. He is more profound
than snowy, and has more application
than versatility. He will finish what he
begins, and make thorough work. He has
a hopeful, happy, loving nature; is emf
nently social, fond of home, and all that
belongs thereto; indeed, when surround
ed by wife, children and friends, he is as
happy as King on his throne, and as
hospitable to all as he is kind and consid-
crate. But to be more specific. This
gentleman is comparatively young in
years, and younger in spirit. Though he
has already accomplished much, he has
In no means reached the climax of his

Fun with a, Spider.
From t. e Cristian News.


Spiders in many respects are just like
other animals, and can be tanned and
pettcd, and taught Il great many lessons.
which they will learn us readily as a dog
or cat. But you must study their WAYS
and get OH the good side of them.
One day had been reading i'm book
how spiders managed to get their web
across streams and roads, and from the
top of one tall tree to another. L went
out and caught a large garden spider, one
of those blue-gray sprawling fellows, and
fixed him for my experiment.
took a stick about Is inches i'm length
and ,,fastened piece of iron TO one end
of it, so that the stick would stand up
oil that end of itself. Then put this
stick in the center of large tub half
full of water, and placed the spider on
the top of the stick. [ wanted to see il
he could get to "land," which was the
edge of the tub, without any help. He
ran down first one side of the stick and
then the other; each time he would stop
when he touched the water, and shaking
his foot rs cat does, he would run up
again. At last he came to the conclusion
that he was entirely surrounded by water
ON an island, in fact. After remaining
perfectly, quiet for long while during
which, have no doubt, he was arranging
his plays, he began running around the
top of the stick, and throwing out great
coils of web. with his hind feet. In a
minute little fine strings of web were
floating awaYsjus the slight breeze that
was blowing. After little one of these
threads touched the edge of the tub and
stuck fast. as all spider webs will do.
That was just what Mr.. Spider was
looking for, and the next minute he took
hold of his web and gave jerk rs sail
or does with rope when he wishes to
see how strong it is, or make it fast
Having satisfied himself that it was fast
at the other end, he gathered it in till il
was tight and straight, aud then ran OIL
it quickly to. the shOre-a rescued casta-
way, saved by his own ingenuity.

1t is told of Col. Charles Spencer, of
New York, counselor at law, that some
years ago lie had to defend one Marshall,
charged with larceny, ard against whom
there was very strong evidence. Before
the trial Spencer went to his client and
told him that his only chance of escape
was i'm u plea of insanity, and advised
him to play the lunatic, and to answer
all questions put to him with the word
spoons" The day of the trial came on,
and Marshall took his place i'm the dock,
pale, haggard, and Withholding. -
''Guilty or not guilty." as asked the
clerk.
'Spoons." drawled the prisoner, with
a blank stare.
"Come, plead guilty or not guilty." re-
peated the clerk.

prisoner, will you answer the ques-
tons put to you, Or do you want to be
punished for contempt?" asked the
judge.
spoons" bawled the prisoner, still un-
moved.
At this point the counsel for the pris-
Oner interfered, and told the court that
his client was not in a condition to be
put on trial, as he was evidently not re-
sponsible for his actions, and it was an
outrage on free citizens, etc.

wild.
1t was evident that the man was crazy,
and the judge ordered him discharged.
He was taken charge of by his friends,
who were present. and left the court
with him. Counselor Spencer followed
them, and. congratulating him on his
escape, suggested that it might be good
idea to pay him his fee. His client stared
at him in blank amazement, and moved
away with the simple remark, spoons"

While / was sitting none of the small

did you come OH ?"
"A man brought me Oh, and when we
got to Pittsburg he left me. and l came
over by myself"
did your papa and mamma come ?"
Sadly he said IL have no father and

'Well, what are you doing now, and

IL live in big boarding-house on Bel

"How are you going to get home 2"
''Why, just the way came on" with
bright twinkle of his clear blue eye.
"And how..old may you be?"
:" Twelve Years old, and l came to see
the Ceutenial.'
And all this time he stood with one
little brown hand on the back of the
chair. the other in his pocket, with an
Immensely broadrimmed hat stuck right
on the back of his curly head. He would
have made picture for an artist. With
