A Ten0m0us Fish.

From letter written by correspond
ent in the Seychelle archipelago, it
would seem that thoug h "every prospect
pleases," man is not the only vile crea-
ture which the islands and their waters
boast. There is a small, but highly
poisonous fish, we are told, called the
"laf" the "spines upon whose back are
hollow and filled, like the fangs of a CO.
bra, with dangerous poison, which
sometimes produces death and always
intense pain" You may draw it unob-
served into the boat when you are fish,
ing, and find out its peculiarities before
its presence has been ascertained.
Sharks, too, are more than abundant,
and, it seems, hang about the frail boats
of the place with such terrible earnest
ness rs to appall sailors and cause them
to refrain from tempting the deep; the
creatures eat the oars as they are thrust
into the water, MUNICH the sides of the
canoes, and altogether misconduct them
selves so gravely that harpoons have to
be used in order to repel them. Hap
PLY, in respect to the "laf." nature has
provided an antidote, for no sooner
has he stung than his body offers a cure
to any one who has the presence OF mind
to seize it, cut it open and apply it to the
wound. Against the teeth of the shark
no such protection is offered, yet those
who wish to avoid his mouth can do so
by keeping ashore. They miss the en-
ioyment Of the loveliest waters in the
world, but they also escape fate COM
pared with Which that of Jonah was
child's play.-Lo'adon Telegraph.

Robbers Outwitted.

A monk on his way to Luzarche the
other day fell in with O stranger riding
in the same direction, with whom hee en-
tered into conversation and was charm
ed with the agreeable sallies of his COM
panion. The latter learning from the
monk that he was in charge Of sum OF
money belonging to this convent, and
was proceeding thither, observed that he
himself was likewise travelling toward
that part of the country, and that by
taking a short cut through the forest
they would materially abridge their
journey. When they were in the thick
of the wood the stranger dismounted
from his horse, seized the monks bride
and with many threats insisted on his
delivering up the money he had with
him. II do not carry it about me- re-
piled the other; "allow me to get off my
horse, and I will call the lay brother
who follows me with the baggage and
hand you over the 1000 liyres." The
stranger consented, and the monk, re,
Joining his attendant, took fro a him 3
purse containing the sum specified and
also pistol, which he hid in his sleeve;
then, throwing the purse on the ground,
he waited until the robber was in the
act of stopping to pick it up, and shot
him through the head. fastening to the
nearest village he related what he had
done to the authorities, and obtained
permission for troop of gems d'armes to
accompany him to the spot, where they
found the robber lying stone dead, with
the purse by his side. Searching his
person, they discovered in q secret
pocket whistle, which one of the party
put to his mouth and blew with all his
force. A few minutes after ten well
armed individuals arrived from different
parts of the wood, and combat ensued,
which resulted in the death of two OF
the gang and the capture Of the re-
mainder.

Unsuccessful People.

The percentage of people who are un-
successful, in the worldly sense Of the
word, is very large one. Often God
snatches away, by His providence:
through no apparent fault or failure OF
theirs, the fruit of mems labors wien
it is just dropping, ripened, into their
hands. Other men come into life hope
lessly destitute of the "knack" for get
ting ahead at anything. The farmer who
thinks he is makinga good bargain when
every one else sees that it is 4 bad one;
the schoolteacher who does not know
how to win the confidence or inspire: the
enthusiasm of her pupils; the minister
whose ways" repel people when ne
takes the most pains to win their eooo
will-such persons are found every.
where. They do the best they know
how, butthey don't succeed. And since
it IS IN experience that is diVlnely, as
signed to so many, we must conslaue
that the ministry Of poverty and deieae
is often better for US than any "orGiy
success could be. blessed are they who
make money or achieve prominence
did not find place in the Beatitudes-
does not, in fact, sound much like them.

Where nm Artist Died.

Celia Thaxton writes from Maine,
where the painter Hunt committed sui
eide short time since: At the top Of
the ledge behind the cottage at Apple
dore is a tiny basin followed out of the
rock to catch the rains, shallow reser-
voir filled with water. which is con-
Quoted by pipes to the wharf for the use
of the small steam yacht Pinaiore, which
plies continually between the islands
during the season. It is q lovely place,
this little sheet of tranquil water lying
cut on the top of the rocks, open to the
sky and rejecting Its every tint and
change as perfectly as the great ocean
beyond it. Hunt and his sister had sat
together near it in the pleasant days,
while she sketchediit and the gable Of the
house close by, and he often said how
pretty it was. Round it the fragrant
bayberry bushes cluster thickly, and till
late the wild roses blossom in sweetness.
At its brim all summer long the little
birds come to drink and to wash, with
twinkling wings ruff1ing the bright sur
face; often I watched them from my
window at tsunrise-sparTows, swallows,
sandpipes, that made the place musical
with melodious cries. Here on that
Monday morning, when all our little
world was seeking him, ! found all that
was left of our beautiful friend floating
upon his face. while the wind fluttered
a fold Of his long coat which lay on the
water, dark in the still and sunny glitter
of the surface elsewhere unbroken. In
q amoment help was on the spot, and un-
availing efforts to resuscitate him were
made, 6utli had been gone some hours;
He had not seemed more depressed
than usual; he sat with us by the fire
a while after breakfast-it had been
raining-then he went cut and we never
saw him again. 1t was an hour or two
before we were really reused to ALARM
about him, for each one thought him in
this or that place where he was accus-
toned to be, and no anxiety entered our
hearts, for of such catastrophe we could
not dream,
