The Washington correspondent OF
the Louisville Courier.Journal writes
every woman Graves husband and
children, but all do not get their cray-
ings. Well, what is to be done in such
a case? How does the argument apply
to such, that 4 woman's sphere is the
family circle, and that she should not
Unscx herself by coming in contact with
the rough world? But, suppose circum-
stances force her to this contact, should
she not have the same facilities and adj
yantages us The opposite sex? / will ad-
init that some women make poor moth
ers, but there are just rs many incom-
petent men. As rule, women are hon
est, diligent and economical where they
are dependent upon their own exertions.
Nothing takes the nonsense out of them
sooner than work. When they are too
busy to give much time to dress, they
think less Of captivating, less of the
vanities and even the luxuries that
wealth brings. 1t is true that hard,
earnest work deprives women of some
of their prettiness and attractiveness it
lessons their chances of marriage, but
that is the penalty circumstances force
her to pay, and all the more honor shall
be accorded to her for accepting her
destiny uncomplainingly. Would it not
be better if men, instead of ridiculing
and satirizing the efforts of women,
should join hands with them and help
them work out the problem?"

-Serpents are said to obey the voice
of their master. The trumpet-bird of
America follows its owner like spaniel,
and the jacana acts asa guard to poul-
try, protecting them in the fields allday
from birds of prey, and escorting them
home at night. In the Shetland Isles
there is gull which defends the flock
from eagles; it is therefore regarded as
q privileged bird. The channels. bound
ing over the mountain, are indebted for
their safety in no small degree to spe-
cies of pheasants. The bird acts rs a
sentinel, for as soon as it gets sight of
man it whistles, upon which the cha
mois, knowing the hunters to be near,
sets off at full speed. The articles
which cartridges and plovers employ to
delude their enemies from the nest of
their young may be referred to as q case
in point, as well as the adroit contriy-
ance of the hind for the preservation of
her young; for when she hears the
sound of dogs she puts herself in the way
of the hunters, and starts in direction
to draw them away from her fawDs.
Instances of the effect of grief upon ami
mails are no less remarkable. Lord
kaimes relates an instance of canary
which, while singing to mate Matching
her eggs in cage, fell dead; the female
left the nest, and, finding him dead, re-
jected all food, and died by his side.

The following little narrative from

The following little narrative from
an English paper illustrates the charac-
ter of good many calculations and es-
Inmates that purp0rt TO rest on better
basis than the OH-hand assertion to
which the story relates: A gentleman
giving evidence before parliamentary
committee said that In some districts the
number Of crows upon farm would
average at least fifty; that the birds
were of great service in destroying wire
worms, and where they did not exist the
farmer was obliged to hire boys to do
the work Of the crow, paying them at
the rate Of three-half-pence per 100
worms. Mr.. Bright inquired how much
a boy could earn worm killing, and was
told I'd, but when asked if a boy made
Cd. a day at the rate of three-half-psnce
n hundred wircworms, how many Of
these noxious creatures he destroyed in
day. the witness, turning rcstive, re-
piled that he did not come there to an
swer arithme!ical question. Mr.. Bright,
however, was not TO be put off in that
way. He asked il boy did the work
rs well az . crow. ga crow is worth
fifty boys!" wins the rash reply. Then
quoth Mr.. Bright: "If boy is worth
Cd. day, and crow worth fifty boys,
how much is the crow worth to the
farmer in money!" Not unnaturally
the gentleman lost his temper, but in
vain. Paper, pen and ink were handed
to him, and, after battling with the fig
ures for while, he announced that a
crow was worth 37s. cd. day to the
farmer. He was then asked to inform
the committee what, at that rate, was
the yesrly value of the bird, and, of
course, could not make it less than
1854 Is. cd. Lis prosecutor next re-
minded the badgered man that he had
given fifty rs the average number of
crows on the farm, and he desired him
to find the aggregate annual value to the
farmer Of his proper quota Of these use
full aids, thereby eliciting the startling
information that the farmer must be s |
gamer of over f34,00O per annum by
his half hundred crows. Thus was the |
gentleman taken at his word with ven
geancc!

BALTIMORE, Nov. 26.-The Balti-
more II Ohio Railroad company
posted the following notice at the
corn and -four exchange to-day:
"Notice is hereby given that on
and after the 9th day of December,
1880, the rate of extra storage on
wheat at the elevators OF the Balti-
more 4 Ohio railroad Locust Point
will be 3-l6 of one cent per bushel
for five days or parts of the same,
and 2ss cents per bushel for each ten
davs thereafter, or parts of the
same"
The notice created quite a CON-
mouon among the operators, and
wheat fell several cents per bushel.
The company says this notice has
been giscn, simply to avert block
ade in the elevators and in several
thousand cars at this point, which
would prevent steady and regular
flow of wheat from the west, and
cause lock up on the line.
