Vampire Bats of Brazil.

Probably no part of Brazil is more
afflicted than portion of the province
of Bahia with the scourge of vampires.
Whole herds of cattle are sometimes de-
stroyed 10y this venomous bat. 1t was
long matter of conjecture how the ami
NAL accomplished this insidious and
deadly work, but scientific men have
now decided that the tongue, which is
capable of considerable extension, is
furnished ut its extremity with num-
Der of pipilie, which are SO arranged as
to form an organ of suction, the lips
having also tubercles symmetrically ar
ranged. Fastening themselves upon cat
tie, these dreadful animals can draw the
blood from their victims. The wound,
made probably from the small needle
like teeth, III afine round hole, the bleed
lug from which is very difficult to stop.
1t is said that the wings of this deadly
bat fly around during the operation OF
wounding and drawing the blood with
great velocity, thus tanning the victim
and lulling while the terrible work is in
progress. Some. of these creatures
measure two feet between the tips OF
their wings, and they are often found III
great numbers in deserted dwellings in
the outskirts of the city. The negroes
and Indians especially dread them, and
there are numerous superstitions among
the natives regarding them.

An Expensive Pleasure.

1t is no trihing expense to be brides
maid at q fashionable wedding" says a
Washington correspondent of the Hart
ford (Ct.) EUcning Post "a lady
hearing another ask her daughter if she
was to be an attendant ut a certain we'd
ding, promptly answered: No; 1 am
tired of paying ut least 500 for the dress
she wears whenever she is bridesmaid
She has bought dresses for that purpose
seven times, and that is enough OF
course q handsome present is always
given bv bridesmaid to the bride, which
adds considerably to the cost of her at
tendance on her friend. The best man
at some weddings is forced to pay good
round sum for boquets for the brides
maids. L know of one instance where a
young gentleman. who could i'll afford it,
was told that he would be expected to
present each of twelve bridesmaids with
a boquet of rosebuds. There were nc
groomsmen at that wedding, and only
six ushers, so the unfortunate best man,
after he had accepted the post, was coolly
told that he would be required to pro
vide the round dozen of bouuets."

An Unpublished Story of Lincoln.

1t was during the fiercest stages of the
great war of the Rebellion that several of
our ministers called on President Lin
coin on an important errand. Mr.. Lin
coin received them with great courtesy,
and gave them good audience. When
the brethren arose to leave the room, one
of them, probably DIR. L. Davis, said,
"Mr. Lincoln, you have been very kind
and painstaking, to answer our questions.
We have yet one which our people are
deeply interested Ill and which we wish
to put before you for an answer. What
do you here at Washington intend to do
with slavery?" That interrogation
opened momentous question.
Mr.. Lincoln was ready for the emer-
gency. Rising to his feet and straighten-
ing up his bony form, he said, "Gentle-
men, L will tell you how it is. The treat
ment proposed by the officials here for
the slavery question Is about like what
would be proposed by a set of doctors
for wen on person. There is q man
with large, ugly wen on his person.
He consults number of physicians
about it. They all agree as to two things.
They all agree that it is Wen that is
the first thing. They all agree that it
must come off. About the method of re-
moving it they do not agree. One says
the best way is to put the knife into it
and with the knife remove it. One adj
vises powerful external applications with
a view to its removal. Another thinks
the better way is to put cord tightly
around it and every day draw it tighter,
until at last q severance will of itself
occur. That, gentlemen, is just the way
it is here with us. We are all agreed
that slavery is wen on the Government.
We are all agreed that it must come off.
We are not yet agreed about how to dc
it." With this the clergymen shook
heartily the hand of the good President
and went away.-ReiiQiOus TELESCOPE,

Daniel Webster at His Own Table.

1t is not generally wise to attempt to
Reproduce the table conversation of
good man, for who does not know that
the aroma which fills room when u
precious wine is uncorked is an evanes-
cent influence? Who does not know
that there are characteristics OF manner
and voice, and q play of features which
no record of the remark or the anecdote
can give to those who did not hear it
1t should be said, however, of Mr.. Web
ster that he never discoursed never
harangued at his own table, or Mt any
other where set speeches were not Ill set
order, and that he never monopoiized
the conversation. His mode of talking
was to "give and take" end, although
all felt him TO be the person whom every
one desired to hear, no one presumed to
"draw him out. Nor was it necessary
for him to do so. AS Mr.. Kenyon found
him in England, SO it was i'll his own
house. We did not "question him on
"aifairs of state" Politics were seldom
alluded to. AS he knew SO much else,
he had 80 many other resources, he was
SO rich III experience, observation and
feeling, that conversation did not need
to drift into that dreary subject-the
party objects and struggles of the day.
His conversation had the accidental
flow which belongs to all good talking.
Natural objects, common things, or com
mon occurrences, might start the topic,
but when he touched it he invested it
with an interest, and placed it in rela-
tons and surrounded it with informa-
ton that surprised the listener like a
new revelation. 1t was knowledge with
out pedantry, the power of illustration
without lecturing. He excelled, too, in
the art of telling story, OF which the
humor was infinitely heightened by his
own enjoyment of it. But, in all his
humor III conversation, there was never
the smallest approach to indelicacy.
When the ladies had retired from the
table, no one ever heard from him, or in
his presence, an anecdote or an allusion
that might not have been uttered before
them; nor did word of profanity or
irreverence for things sacred pass his
lips in any company.-Curtis' Life Of
Webster.

Infantile Ophthalmia.

In the Revue Medicdte DIR. Luton. of
Rheims. advocates the use of iodine dis
solved in cherry-laurel water for oph-
tbalmia in newborn infants. Ten
drops Of the tincture in ten grams of
cherry-laurel water make colorless
mixture, leaving no precipitate, while in
the same quantity of distilled water a
coored precipitate would soon form.
The decoloration is owing to the pro-
duction of hydriodic acid and iodide of
cyanogen, two colorless bodies in solu-
ton. A mixture of one part tincture Of
iodine TO twenty parts of cherry-laurel
water is, says NJ. Luton, q collyrium of
incontestible power in the purulent oph-
thalmia of infants; the liquid to be

Why the Clouds Float.


Clouds never rest still in the air; they
are at all times in motion; they are al
ways in the act of being blown along by
the wind. When raindrops fail at the
same time that.a strong wind is blowing,
even they are observed to be carried n
considerable distance along and if the
raindrops were lighter than they are they
would be carried still further by the
wind before they finally reached the
ground. If, for instance, they were hol-
low, air-hlled balls, like balloons, in
stead of being compact drops of liquid,
they would assuredly drift upon the wind
long distances, and this, it will be remem-
bered, is precisely what cloud spherules
are. They are hollow balls, constituted
of the hghtest and thinnest conceivable
films, and, therefore, possessing very
large surfaces in proportion to their
weight They are just in the condition
which fits them to he seized and hurried
along by the drifting air currents. When
clouds exist in really still air, their
spherules do fall. 1t has been ascer-
tanned that aqueous mist, by falling
through some 5000 feet of air, can ac-
quire n downward velocity of something
like fifty inches per second. 1t would
indeed fall with the headlong impetu-
osity of leaden bullet or q stone but
for the resistance which il encounters in
making its way down among the air par
ticles. When, therefore, the air is itself
moving, instead of being at rest, this re-
sistance to it's descent becomes an actual
carrying power. hi all probability cleo
trical force at times has something to do
with the suspension of clouds. But there
can be no doubt that, in the main, the
result is merely the effect of mechan-
zeal inhuence-that 1T is case of drift
rather than buoyancy. The notable in
stances in which clouds appear to be
still are simply all illusions. In such
cases the cloud is i'll the process of being
dissolved away at one edge as fast as it
is deposited at the opposite one, and so
it is the visible form only, and not the
substance, which is still. The table
cloth which frequently covers the top of
Table mountain, at the Cape of Good
Hope, is cloud of this character. The
moist air from the southeast is blown
from the warm sea up the slopes of the
mountain, until it is high enough to de-
post it's vapor as white mist, and it then
passes over the flat summit of the noun
tain, and falls on the opposite side until
it gets back into the lower and warmer
region, where the white mist is again
dissolved into transparent vapor. In
mountainous countries it often happens
that all the SUBMITS of the lofty mount
aims are Handicapped, while the intet-
vening spaces of the atmosphere are
clear. The same explanation applies to
this The cloud is deposited where the
air is chilled by the close neighborhood
of the snow-covered SUBMITS, but it is
dissolved as soon as it is drifted away
clear of the mountain into the warmer
stretches of air. The white cloud caps
are thus not stationary clouds, out fresh
clouds continually formed, and as CON
tinualy dissipated as they move from the
place where each white cap is seen.-

Sympathy With Children.

A parent should try to sympathize
with the various irregular growths of
q child's nature. Sensitiveness as to
peculiarities Of dress is a very strong
element, and it cannot be laughed
down. The late admirable Lydia Ma
ria Child said that she believed her
character had been permanently in
iured by the laughter of her school
mates at q peculiar short-waisted gown
which her mother made her wear to
school. And q very sensible mother
who would not allow her little daugh-
ter to wear q hoop TO dancing school
when hoops were the fashion, said that
she was certain that by tile mortifca-
ton she had caused her, and the I'M
due attention which had been given to
the subject, she had made love of dress
passion with the child, On all these
questions certain wholesome inatten-
ton is perhaps the best treatment. Try
to allow your child to be as much like
his fellows as you can; and above all
things do not make him too splendid,
for that hurts his feelings more than
anything and makes the other boys
laughfat. him. The ragged jacket, the
poor shoes, the forlorn cap, the decid-
nous pantaloon which has shed the
leaves of freshness these are not
laughed at; they do not move the youth
full soul To, ridicule:. tits lovely trait
in the character of boyhood that power
ty is no disgrace. But . velvet jacket,

q flower garden In summer. II the
whole country Is like the part through
which we have passed it we'll deserves
the name. Everywhere about the
homes we passed. in town and country,
there were flowers in abundance and
variety and richness Of color and
sweetness Of fragrance beyond anything
we have seen riknown. A most adj
mirable taste evidencing no little cul-
,tivation, is displayed in the arrange
ment Of the flower beds that beautffy
the homes Of Old England. Even At
the little country railroad station, on
either side, and often across the track
on the facing slope there are diamond
and oval and square and star beds Of
flowers, the beds as clean as though
newly made, and the flowers delight
ing and refreshing travellers with their
beauty and odor: This profusion OF
flowers was observed in traversing Eng
land from Liverpool to London, via the
Great Western Railroad, Including q
run from Warwick to Stratford- on
Avon, and from London to Dover via
tho Southeastern Railway.

Saving Strength.

Even in performing necessary kitch-
on work, the busy housewife need not
keep on her tired feet all the time.
Chairs or stools of different heights can
be procured at slight expense, and can
be occupied as the work varies. Many
women seem to enter the kitchen in
martyr-like spirit, and forego mono of
the penances. But why need they?
For woman to bring within the radi-
ating heat of her range damask-cov-
cred faNteuiz, with foot-stool, and to
loll back in the soft cushions, and to
give her orders with languid wave Of
her jewelled hand. a Ia Marie Antoi-
notte, would be absurd. But what use
is there to fuss about the work, and to
worry yourself to death over itp II you
have sauce to make, do it leisurely.
Intelligence in preserving ones physic-
al force Is the intelligence Of humanity
in contradistinction to the over-taxed
and over-spent force Of the animal. It
is not expected Of you to have spoon
with handle FIVE feet long, and at
gunshot range from your jelly kettle to
skim it. But womankind too often
makes her life miserable by want Of
proper judgment, and fuses and
frets, and worries herself over things
which, had she judgment, might Be-
pleasantly and easily accomplished.
