Costly Fire.


Yesterday, while an employe Of the
Southern express company was paying
off bills, he picked up and tore open a
couple Of envelopes, but noticing that
each one contained a FIVE hundred
dollar bill, he laid them aside and
tackled the small change. The empty
envelopes accumulated SO as to be in
the way, and, gathering them up, he
pitched them into the stove. Later
on, a bill for five hundred and odd
dollars was presented for payment
and the clerk, remembering the two
five hundred-dolla notes, thought
now was a good time to make use Of
one Of them, but, to his horror, neither
one of them could be found. In a
moment the thought struck him like a
thunderbOlt that he had pitched them
both in the FIRE with the rubbish. In
a twinkling the fire was extinguished
and among the charred papers a little
corner of each Of the bills was found
uniujured. The fellows say the fire
was a pretty good one while it lasted
but that is poor consolation to the
poor CLERK, who must make the loss
good. 1t would perhaps we well to
remark here that, although a greasy
five bill might start a
FIRE very nicely, coal oil would do il
better, especially if the fireman had nc
effects to administer upon.

~ a good thought when it says that
the secret of the sympathy felt for
Mr.. Garfield in the sOuth-remOto
as it was aud is from all personal or
party considerations - is the fact
that ne is typical American. tie
has made his own career. He con-
quered poverty and all the obstacles
that poverty places in the way of
the aspiring and ambitious, and
fought his way upward to the high
est renown. The south saw in him
u man of large mind and broad
man of genial in,-
pulses and of IL temperament that
may wei! be called poetic. Seeing
all this, our people had hopes that
his administration would DC pro-
ductive of the largest results in al,

ism, and NC have not the slightest
doubt that these hopes would have
been realized.

Serrleenhle Teeth.

The bRrbaroussa, a species Of wild
hog, has its upper canine teeth modified
in q most singular way TO serve as pro-
lection to the eyes, rs the animal forces
IFS way through the dense underground
Of the tropical forests they rise almost
vertically through the upper lip, and
frequently curve backward so much ms
to pierce the skull. The beaver with his
sharp, chisel-fnced front teeth, will cut
down and carry off trees as big as a
mans thigh, gnawing the wood all
round, but cutting it higher on one side,
50 as to determine the direction OF the
fish. In one place on the banks of the
Missouri, the timber was completely
penetrated for a distance of three acres,
and in great pnrt removed, although the
trees were very numerous and Of consid-
cradle size. So hard is the enamel Of
the beavers tooth that when fixed in q
wooden handle it makes very respecta-
ble chisel, and, according 70 Sir John
Richardson, it is used by the Northern
Indians TO cut bone, and to shape their
horn-tippei spears, etc. The incisor
teeth Of the ngouti, another of the ro-
dents, are used iii the same way by the
Brazilian Indians to fashion the blow
tubes with which they bring down small
birds and monkeys What the little
beaver does for building materials, the
gigantic megatherium appears to have
done for food This huge extinct sloth
seems to have had for its pleasing task
to uproot and tear down large forest
trees ior the purpose Of feeding on the
branches.
The common snail sets forth TO rayage
our gardens equipped with one hundred
and fifty rows Of stout serrated teeth.
The whole palate contains about twonty-
Jne thousand teeth, while full-grown
slug has over twenty-six Thousand Of
these silihious spikes The wrelk has :
ribpon.like tongue, contained in pro.
Goscis, with which it bores holes in the
shells Of the molluses which form its
food The tongue has strong, saw-like
teeth on the edges, with rows of finer
ones between. In some molluses the
tongue resembles a tesselated pavement,
