Nunneries.

In Prussia, no novice can take the veil
without being first examined as to the
sufdciency and propriety of her motives
in desiring to take this step. In Russia,
no convent can receive q nun without
making application to the Synod Of Mos
cow, and producing an affidavit from the
novice showing that 1t Is of her own free
will and choice that she is about to enter
the institution. In Bsvaria monsstic
vows are not allowed BY law for more
than three years, and the civil authorities
visit all converts every quarter, not only
for fiscal purposes, but in order to restore
to the world ard to society all nuns who
may desire to rclinquish the seclusion Of
their converts. In Austria, the inmates
Of conventual institutions may at any
time address the civil government
privately, stating their desire. to leave
the convents; and such applications at
once receive attention. In many of the
converts of France the VOWS are tempo
rary, and the mayor of each arrondisse.

vent whenever the civil authorities Of a
locality think it necessary to DO so. In
Mexico, where the whole population IL

the frequent visitation Of nunneries
During the four years preceding 1871
the number of Roman Catholic nunnesies
in England were Increased by 10. The
Roman Catholic Dictionary states tina,
in 1851 there were in England and Wales
So establishments of that description
In 1879 the number was 60, showing ar
increase of o.. in 1878, the number wa'
70, an increase of 10; so that the mum
Der of these institutions is rapidly aug
menting. There are two species of con
vents-One of the contemplative' order
and one of the active order. There ar,
only four houses in all England of thu
contemplative order.

RUINED BY A SPIDER.-Spiders crawl
ing more abundantly and conspicuously
than usual upon the indoor walls Of our
houses foretell the near approach Of rain,
but the following anecdote intimates tina.
some of their habits are the equally GER
tain indication of frost being at hand.
Quartermaster Disjonval, seeking to be-
guile the tedium of his prison hours a,
Utrecht, had studied attentively the habits
Of the spider, and eight years Of imprison-
ment had given him leisure to be well
versed in his ways. In December of 1874
the French army, on whose success his
restoration to liberty depended, was in
Holland, and victory seemed certain il
the frost, then of unprecedented severity,
continued. The Dutch ENJOYS failed to
negotiate a peace, and Holland was des.
pairing, when the frost suddenly broke. The
Dutch were now exulting, and the French
generals prepared to retreat. but the spi.
der forewarned Disjonval that the thaw
would be of short duration, and he knew
that this weather monitor never deceived
He contrived to communicate with the
army of his countrymen, and it's generals
who duly estimated his character, relied
upon his assurance that within a few
days the waters would again be passablt
by troops. They delayed their retreat
within twelve days the frost had returned
the French army triumphed. Di.jonva
was liberated, and spider had brought
down ruin on tho Dutch nation.-BaIti
