Confederate Bonds Once More.

The New York Heg0ld's London cor scheme in England to bully the people of the Southern States to pay by gen. eral contribution to English bankers and other holders part at least of the face of the Confederate bonds which 1t seems number of these people have been keeping in their strong boxes as valuable assets.
 It appears that syndicate of English and Continental bankers has been formed. This syndicate have hired vault room in a safe deposit company for the storage of the Confederate bonds; have engaged to give receipts to the owners of such bonds who will deposit 1t with them; have persuaded the Lon- don Stock Exchange to deai only in these receipts and not in the bonds, and now propose to those holders of the bonds who will deposit it with them to blackmail the Southern States to secure payment for what is on its face not due and by its nature and history absolutely worthless.
 The Confederate bonds, tine Herald adds, are on their face due and payable only in stated number of years after the declaration of peace between the Confectionery and the United States-an event which has not yet happened and will never happen. The fourteenth amendment to the constitution declares that "neither the United States nor 0aey .State shall assume or pay any debt or obligation incurred in aid of insurrec- tion or rebellion against the United States, or any claim for the loss or emancipation of any slave; but all such debts, obligations or claims shall be held illegal and void" This ought to be conclusive to every human being ex: cept Englishmen and idiots.

Notes by the Suns" Naturalist.

In corners of woodshed two spiders had suspended their webs. Each web bad funnel-shaped den into which the spider retreated with it's captured icsects, to feast upon them at leisure and in se- clusioD. One of the webs was destroyed, and its occupant took refuge ill the web of his neighbor. The next morning a fly was thrown into the web. One of the spiders came forth and seized it, while the other looked on quietly from the top of the den. The harmony con- tinued for several days, and until large grasshopper was thrown ill. One of the spiders approached the powerful pris- oner cautiously and fastened him at several points. He either received a kick from the grasshopper or became tired, for he went back and his partner took up the work. The self-relieved spider hung on the mouth of the den with his head and forelegs above it, watching, and not without seeing some thing. The one that was binding the grasshopper stopped work to take taste of him, and he did not stop tasting. The other spider moved uneasily for 8 second, then made a furious rush and overturned his greedy housemate, which sneaked back into the den.
 The shell of spider was seen on the web the next day.
 The web of the large black and yellow garden spider is woven with wide strip of folds of gossamer in the center reach ing from top to bottom. An inquiring person threw 8 big insect into one of these webs which was attached to 8 grape vine. The spider did not leave the center of the web at once, but began to sway back and forth upon his long legs until the web had 8 swinging mo- tion. The insect was quiet and seemed to be magnetized. Suddenly the spider took down fold of tho gossamer, ap preaching the insect, and wrapped hlm in it, as a grocer's clerk would wrap a parcel.
 This spider spins strip of threads an eighth of an inch in width at one time.

Towards the end of last January MT. Lawler called on Dr. Ken nedy. Sounding him, the doctor "struck stone" He decided that Mir. Lawler should first try the "Favorite Remedy" so as, if possible, to avoid an operation. And here is the remarkable result: "Dear Doctor Kennedy-The day after came homs passed two gravel stones and am doing nicely now. If you would like to see the stones will send them to you" This letter bears date Dalton, Mass, Feb. 6th," and is signed "Peter Lawler" The stones, which are SO large as to war rant for [" Kennedy's Favorite Remedy the claim that it is the most successful specific for Stone yet discovered, are now in Dr. Kennedy's possession.

I'll jump over it, and frequently before
the boat touches the wharf. That Ia
progressive Young America. And from
that early hour until the evening when
they 90 back on this boat, they are
jumping over endless chains of com-
msroe and coin. The great nation of
jumpers! The Republic of hurry. Young
men in the prime of life jump into
graves: middle aged men hurry into
collins! live on, a type OF retrogres-
sive Italy! Oh, progress, progress. On
thy altar are the sacrifices of millions of
lives, millions of luxuries and
millions of happiness! ! am hurried
OF the ferry boat and buried Tito a
