A SPIDERS READY WIT.-Dr. J. Lawrence Hamilton, of London, writes: The following incident, which witnessed, may possibly in terest some of your readers: A boy removed a small spider to place it in a big spiders web, which was hung among foliage, and distant nal soon rushed from it's hiding place under a leaf to attack the intruder, who ran up one of the ascending lines by which the web was se- cured. The big insect gained rapidly upon it's desired prey, the smaller creature Spiders are cannibals, notably the larger females, who are given to devour their smaller male lovers. When the little spider was barely an inch in advance of it's pursueri cut with one of itslegs the line behind itself, so that the sttonger insect fell to the ground, thus affording time and opportuni- ty for the diminutive spider to escape along the ascending rope of the web. This is not the only fact which seems to indicate that spi- ders instinct may almost equal reason.

O'Clock, WITH a stick, which he used as a
pointer, Dr.. Magoon. after announcing
his text from the 3Sth chapter OF Eze-
ha, proceeded to poiHt out the location
OF Constaptinople. THAT was the KEY
to the civilization OF all the oriental
countries, be said. Turkey has been
blocking the way of knowledge between
the countries sacred in scripture and the
civilized world to~rcenturies. She would
not bulge from before the advancing
tide OF civilization, What must be the
oonseqenoes, then2 She must be crushed.
The thirteen million Christians in Wal.
lachis, Armenia and other provinces
were groanlng under the oppression OF
the Iuidel Turk. Alexander Of Russia
bad heard their cries aud be would prove
their lberator, God speed him in his
cause. Why did England encourage the
Turk to block up the way Of ~civilizationl
Because England herself wanted to get
possession OF all the Eastern territory
that was of any commercial Importance.
She would gladly, il she could, plant her
Gag at the mouth of the Nile. Where Is
she now on our own hemispheref'
Dr.. Magoon pointed with his stick to
the St. Lswrenoel There she is now.
And she would like, il she could, to get
down to the mouth Of the Merrimac, and
then to the mouth Of tie Hodson, and
then to the mouth Of the Mississippi.
Oh, yes; she would ike this very we'll.
But she tried that once and / don't think
she'll try it again"
The speaker said that two good results
had grown out Of the Crimean war, dis.
sstrous as it had been to Russia. First,
IL had regenerated the Russian army,
and second, it had sunk England to a
lower depth than she had been before.
Aud il she wont to war with Russia it
would be safe to predict, said be, that
when she came out Of it she would be
