Guatemala has secured one in the late
rebel blockade runner. the iron steamer

now get away; but had the secret of her

condition of the American navy-whicf
has averaged Il cost of nearly $40, 900. 600
q year for the last ten years-that we have
not one vessel in these waters in condi-
tion to pursue the Pelican and bring her
back had she escaped out of this port OF
the six or seven vessels at Mare Island.
there is not one that could begot ready for
action In less than three months, and the
two revenue cutters used here are both

OF her and see that she does not get away.

British Railway Inconyeniences.

The absurd practice of locking the
fast in compartments on rail
way cars has minor inconvenience as
well as serious dangers. A part of the
system consists of having no handles to
the doors on the inside. A writer to the
English Mechanic pleads earnestly for
inside handles, chiefly because if they
were provided the windows would not be
so frequently opened as they have to be
now, to reach the outside handles and,
consequently, there would be less chance
of the cushions being wet by rain when
the windows are carelessly left open.
He thinks that there would be little
danger that children might turn the in
side handles and fall out of the cars,
and he hopes that ladies' dresses would
not be frequently caught in entering or
leaving. The American public has often
been reproached with too easy conces-
sion to inconvenience, but there would
be something near akin to riot on a
railway train carrying human beings in
this country, if there were no inside
handles to the doors of a single passen-
ger car. Our Improvements in cars are
constantly gaining wider recognition.
One of the latest is method of heating
a whole train through pipes from stove
in the baggage car; the pipes being con-
trived SO as to connect or disconnect
without especial attention when the
cars are coupled or uncoupled; while
a universal joint gives the requisite free
dom of motion at the point where the
pipes unite. The danger from fire from
stoves in the cars may thus be reduced
to a minimum. Perhaps the ingenious
inventor will divise an equally effective
mode of warming street cars by pipes
under the seats.

A Den of Serpents.

The following snaky story is published
by the st. Joe Herald: A few days ago,
Andrew Ogden was out in a ravine on
the farm of o. A. Jennings, mile
northwest of Salem, Neb, and while in
the act of drinking out of a spring, saw a
large snake and killed it. A day or two
afterwards J. NJ. Graves went to the
same spring to drink, and saw a lot of
snakes heads sticking out Of the bluff by
the spring. He went into Salem and re-
ported what he saw, and in company
with Mr.. Jennings and others went out
with picks and shovels to dig out the
nest. A few minutes work let them
into den of real live snakes of nearly
all kinds usually found in that country
except rattlesnakes. They took out and
killed two hundred and ten of the rep
tiles, but did not get all, as they suppose
The snakes measured from eight inches
to six feet in length. They say one as
large as mans leg crawled back so fal
they did not get him; and it was moi
much of a day for snakes.

A Singular Attachment.

Last spring Mr.. William Sinclair, of
Cambray, Ont, caught young crow
before it could fly and broug int it home,
and it soon became quite tame. 1t
struck up a warm friendship with
young hound belonging to Mr.. Sinclair.
The crow always was around with the
hound, shared his meals and slept in his
box at night, on the bottom, not seeking
to perch unless they were disturbed
during the night, when he would come
out and fly up into one of the trees near
by and remain there until morning
When given food it would invariably
take a portion to the hound. 1t would
not give it to him at once, but would fly
around Just above his head with piece
of meat or crust of bread in his bill, and
keep teasing him for quite while with
it, and then would finally let him have
it. But last week instinct began to be
too powerful and he concluded that he
must go to other quarters for the winter,
and it was amusing to see how he tried
to coax the hound away with him. He
would fly away little piece and then
light and cav to the dog; then he would
fly back, and seemed in great distress
because he could not induce his four.
footed friend to 60 to warmer quarters
for the winter; but, finding he would
not leave, he at length flew off and .ha.
! not been seen since.

OHIO GENERAL ASSEMBLY.

JANUARY pa few of the members of
the Legislature came struggling along in the
morning, and good many more on the
noon trains, but when the hour for meeting
came in the afternoon neither House had a
quorum. Still, this didn't prevent their
doing little business, and thus establish
ing their claims to continuance of their per
diem. They will be able to get down to solid
work by tomorrow. The Senate did moth
ing utlisten to the reading Of the journal
of Friday, a short job, indeed. In the
House they listened to the journal, went
through the cali of the Committees, after
which half dozen or more new bills were
introduced and read for the first time.
JANUARY 30-Scndte-Mr. Saltzgaber's
Senate bill to dispense with the recording
of chattel mortgages, and providing in lieu
of the recording the indexing of the same,
was read the third time, discussed at some
length and passed. A message was received
from the Governor, Withdrawing, with the.
consent of the senate, the nominations of
Messrs. Price and Bell to be Directors of
Longview Asylum, these gentlemen declin-
ing the appointment. Among number of
bills introduced was one by Mr. DUNCAN,
making silver coins full legal tender in
0hio...... B0use-Among the bills intro
duced, one, by Mr.. lrovenger, fixes the COM
pensation of juries in Justices courts at one
dollar per day, and fifty cents additional
when in session at night. Mr.. Wright's bill
fixing the salaries of Supreme Judges at
1900 was defeated by IL to 20.
JANUARY 31.-Senate--One hundred farm
ers of Licking County sent in a petition
asking for the protection OF foxes. Among
a number of new bills, was one by Mr..
Forrest, embodying very extensive amend
ments in the new code. 1t provides that
instead of "written" order being required
for minor to purchase liquor verbal
order from his parent or guardian shall be
sufficient; that the fine for unlawful selling
shall not exceed twenty-five dollars that
the Imprisonment clause be stricken out,
and that all of Section IA, which provides
for declaring saloon nuisance, shall be
stricken out. Mr.. Forests bill modifes
the liquor law in other particulars............
House-The usual number of petitions were
introduced in reference to the preservation
of the canals, and the protection of game.
Among large number of bills introduced
was one by Mr.. Dalzell, abolishing the Office
of Commissioner Of Railroads and Tele-
graphs. The bill for the reorganization of
Longyiew Asylum was passed. 1t was so
amended as to provide that the Trustees
shall be.appointed-two by the Governor
for one and two years, one by the Probate
Court for three years, one by the Common
Pleas Court for four years, and one by the
County Commissioners for five years.

SAVINGS OF FRENCH LABOR.
VINUo Vr rhNNOH 10
rphiIadelnhia Press.1. "a

philadelphia Press.l
Generally, N European countries, the
practice has been, when political
crisis takes place or is expected, for the
middle-class and working-class whose
providence has enabled them to
save money and place it out at interest
in savings banks, to withdraw it when
political coup Getat by the governing
power or revoltby the governed masses
appears imminent. This has hitherto
been usual, almost certain, in France,
particularly in Paris. The country peo-
pie in France do not entertain a very
favorable opinion of the savings banks,
being under perpetual dread that in
some revolutionary movement all the
money deposited in them may be seized
and confscated under some governmental
pretext. So, in the country, the savings
of prudential labor are secretly boarded
in hiding-places at home. generally in
the tangible shape of five-franc pieces,
while in the cities, and especially in
Paris, the savings banks are relied on.
1t might have been imagined that in the
recent political crisis in France, which
continued through seven months MAY
December, 1879, and more than once
appeared likely to culminate in an or
ganic change in the very principles, as
well as the rulers of the Republic, the
ouvriers Tor work-people) of Paris would
take the usual course of withdrawing
their deposits from the savings banks.
1t appears, by an official return just
published by the French Government,
that at the end of 1877 the Paris Saw
ings Bank had 1000 depositors, and
470, ,276, 1873 francs deposits-an increase,
compared with the year 1876, of q, ,430
depositors, and 1861, ,572 francs of de-
posits. Therefore, it is argued that
whoever in Paris was alarmed at the po-
litical crisis, the steadiest among the
industrial class was not Here, also, is.
the satisfying fact that, taking the pop
.ulation of Paris at 100000 in round
numbers, nearly one-eighth, chiefly
working people, have laid by over
$94, ,000,, 90. Nor is this novel or ex-
ceptional case, for it will be remembered
that during the Second Empire, when
Louis Napoleon wanted to raise large
sum of money by loan, without having
recourse to the regular financiers of
Paris, London and Amsterdam, he in
vited France to contribute the money,
in small sums, which was done out of
the savings of the middle and working
classes, and thrice the amount required
was eagerly offered. On subsequent and
similar occasions the appeal had the
same result, and from this source came
large portion of the five milliards of
francs Il 10000 O,O0o, or about one-half
of the entire present debt of the United
States) exacted by Germany from
France, in 1871, as indemnity" for the
cost of the war. That the workers of
Paris should have laid by savings, from
their not very high wages, to the
amount of ninety-four million dollars,
is mostcreditable to them, and not lit
tie at variance with the prevailing idea
that they are improvident and reckless.

he finds the cats gone. He's on the
pavement, and we can't get him up.
Now we're going to tie rope around

put him out of the window, and jerking
him up and down, landed him on the
pavement two stories below.
Itwas dark and till storming. "We'l

said Nugent, chuckling; perhaps he'll

No sound. A little frightened, they
drew up the rope, and 10 their dying
day the boys never forgot the sight
which greeted them. The child was in

and his limbs drawn up:
Here's pretty kettle of fish," cried
Nugent, terrified. "Quickl unite the
rope before any one comes in! One of

he took the poor, dripping child up ten

A physician was summoned; but the
boy, falling from one convulsion to an
other, lay the whole night between life
and death. He recovered at last, to
find his mother at his bedside. The
next day Perry Nugent was expelled
from the institution of which he was

weeks SO far recovered from the nervous
shock as to be sent to another school;
but never again was hazing tolerated in

CIGARETTE SMOKING.
New York Tribune

There is a growing belief that the
habit of cigarette smoking has had a
bad effect upon the health of those ad-
dicted to it.
Several of the prominent physicians
of this city unite in declaring that
cigarette smoking is much more in
furious than cigar smoking, because the
smoke is generally inhaled, and often
elected through the nose. 1t has par
ticularly harmful local effect on the
mucous membrane of the nasal passage.
People who use cigarettes are more liza
BILE than others to be afflicted with local
irritations that produce catarrh. In
persons of nervous temperaments the
doctors say cigarette smoking always
produces constitutional effects. The
pulse is increased in frequency, becomes
smaller than is natural, and is irregular.
Such persons are said by physicians to
have tobacco pulse" and "tobacco
heart" The action of the pulse in this
respect is not to be mistaken. Persons
who constantly smoke cigarettes are said
by physicians to be easily excited, and
to have tendency to vertigo and dim
ness of vision, besides being troubled by
dyspepsia. Bronchial and throat dis
eases are much more readily caused by
cigarette-smoking than by cigar-smok-
ing, and during the first six or seven
years large increase in diseases of the
air passages, due alone to this habit, has
been observed. Physicians state that
there is not one. fftieth as much of the
mucous surface covered by cigar smoke
as by the inhaled smoke of cigarette.
Excessive indulgence in any form of to-
bacco smoking may produce general
paralysis, while by enfeebling the circu-
lation, lowering the vitality of the sys-
tenn, and interfering with assimilation
of food, it tends to produce anemia,
which is one of the first steps towards
softening of the brain. Vertigo, when
resulting from smoking strong cigars, or
from the inhaling of cigarette smoke, is
due to an9mia, or in ether words, to q
diminished supply of blood to the brain.
By some it is claimed that the paper
wrapping of cigarettes is as hurtful as
the tobacco. This claim is grounded
upon the belief that the products of the
imperfect combustion of the paper or
other vegetable fiber are pyrogallic and
pyroligneous acids, which make theil
presence unpleasantly felt in the mucous
membrane. <
