The Diamond RattIesn0ise.
Toledo Blade.

Ordinarily the jingle of a handful of
rings is not an unpleasant sound, but when
it happens that these rings are fastened to
six or seven feet of serpent as thick as a
mans wrist, and that serpent is armed
with the whitest and sharpest of fangs,
nearly an inch in length, with csterns of
liquid poison at their base, the music doe
not seem cheerful or inspiring. The snake
family are known to have but little re-, Gra
for the doctrine of moral suasion. and are
ant to be rash in their conclusions IA |
hasty i'll their actions, as we'll ~
profoundly Indifferent to argument az
apology, reason and politeness being en-
tirely wasted on them. Only distance or
brute force suffices to restain their insane
propensity to probe every living thing
within reach of those delicate needles of
worry. AS the "big Indian" among his
lesser braves, so is the diamond rattlesnake
of the Southern states among other Ameri-
can serpents. Dressed i'll brownish
colored coat plaided with lighted lines IN
diamond shaped blocks, and with dignity
and independence stamped on every curve
and motion, the sleek, oily looking rascal
glides slowly through ''hamok" and
scrub" +nrror to man and beast, turn
ing aside f. none, nor going out of his
way to att any unless pressed by
hunger, VIII / seldom happens in this
climate WHIT animal life abounds. As he
moves quiet along, his wicked little eyes
seem to emf! greenish light and shine
with as much briIliancy as the jewels of
finished coquette. Nothing seems to es-
cape his observation, and on the slightest
movement near him ne swings into
his fighting attitude, raising his upper jaw
and erecting his fangs, which, in a state of
repose, lie closely packed in the soft mus
cles of his mouth. This snake is not as ac-
tive as his copperhead cousin of the north,
nor so quick to strike, but one blow is al
most always fatal. His fangs are so
long that they penetrate deep
into the muscles and veins of
his victim, who has little time for more
than single goodbye before closing his
eyes forever. The writer has measured
these fangs, and in one instance found
them seven. eighths of an inch in length,
and though not thicker than commo,,
sewing needle, yet perforated with hole
through which the greenish yellow li:1t;l
could be forced in considerable quantities.,
and in the case above mentioned each o the
sacs contained about half a teaspooufui
The fangs are only pierced about two
thirds their entire length, and are always
double, smaller pair lying Immediately
under the others and ready for use in case
of accident to the principal ones.

ule as a substitute for that reported by the
committee. He said the market was in the
hands of refnecs; that the
existing duty on fine sugars was
prohibitory; that the rate proposed by
committee still be prohibitory; that the
amount now proposed by the chairman OF
the committee on finance would increase
the rate above that of the committee, and
that the report of the tariff commission
would give the Louisiana planter no higher
protection than that he had enjoyed for

De Boo and de Ball Trick.

To corrupt the purity of the English
tongue in the minds and mouths of the
young is serious matter, and it is alarm
ing to find that it may be done by the
agency of toys. We have before us pa
per explaining the employment of certain
playthings which speak three languages
German, French and English. The Ger
man is tolerable, but the French and the
English are written as the great courier M.
Hirsch spoke all languages, with indiffer-
emit correctness" There is the interest
ing deception of the ''box-and ball'' trick.
The happy English child is told to ''show
to the company the balls counterfeit, close
de box, and in opening the same the ball
will be disappeared" But he is informed,
''you may also take the ball publicly out
of the box, and if it is wished it must
again be in the same" Having mastered
these directions he passes to ''the corals."
"The juggler asks some one of the COM
pany to take of the two ends of the string
with both his hands, having beforehand
made simple knote IN it.. But the ''magi-
cal box for cards" is the most fertile of
strange words. "The similar card" we
are told, ''must be hidden under the paste
board of de hover. Then shut the boy
give it few snaps, that the pasteboard an
card fall to the bottom. The box brig
then opened, the card will appear restored"
The acute observer of trifles will notice
here to his satisfaction that the locutioa
''de" for ''the" which is often put by sneer-
ing Britons in the mouth of foreigners is
justified by the undersigned coincidence of
the foreigners own usage. ''That
an pasteboard card fall to
the bottom" is somewhat suggestive
of niger English, though to make it COM
plete it should have been ''de'' bottom.
But the main point for reflection is that if
the youthful juggler initiates this master
of style when he returns to the delightful
labors of school after the fatigues of the
holidays, it is but too probable that his
brutal masters may ''give him few shaps,"
even if they do not tie simple knote in a
string and instruct him Herewith. Such
is the unfairness of all dealings of crab
bed age with youth.

biggest pills and powders, which he kept
prepared for his titled customers, put up
his blisters and lancets, clambered into his
chaise and drove off to the castle without
delay.
He examined Tobias Eliakim thorough
ly, and asked him and his mother and
teachers questions for two hours, and then
gravely shook his head
''My dear madam" he said, ''your son is
suffering from one of the gravest maladies
known to science, and one quite beyond
the reach of medicine. All l can tell you
about it is that it is known to the profes-
sion as 'Congenital Whatif';;" and putting
up his medicines and blisters and lancets,
the doctor drove away.
AS Sir Timothy was very much afraid of
being poisoned by bad air, and also of
catching cold, men with all kinds of patent
ventilators and furnaces to sell came to
the castle every day, the procession often
reaching as far as the eye could see, and
Sir Timothy had every one tried. so anx-
ious was he to secure one to his mind.
Life in the castle went on very much as
have described, till Tobias EIiakim was
sixteen years old. Sir Timothy continued
to try all sorts of patent yentilators and
furnaces, and at last man came all the
way from the shore of the straits of Sunda,
and showed him model which he thought
so perfect that he ordered a furnace and
ventilator like it to be put in the
castle as soon as possible The
first night it was used, the north wind was
blowing at a fearful rate, and the fire in the
new furnace burned so fiercely, and all the
great heat-pipes grew so hot that they set
on fire the woodwork of the partitions
they traversed. The hall into which the
family rooms opened connected with the
castle by one small door, Sir Timothy
having ordered the rest of the
doors to be walled up. And this
small door was always closed at night, and
locked by six patent locks, lest the SER
wants, or somebody, or something, should
attack the family in the night. All the
windows and doors in the family rooms
were, for the same reason, fastened by
patent locks, so, though the servants tried
hard to save them, the poor Surprising
family persisted miserably in the flames.

T,co Bears CTcar a Supper Table.
PHILADELPHIA North American. Jan. %. !

Philadelphia North American, Jan. ".
Two bears brought to this city on Satur-
day night by Lorenzo and Michael Petitito,
itinerant musician created quite panic
in Mrs Luccarini's boarding house last
night. The Italians brought the animals
to Philadelphia for the purpose Of giving
street exhibitions. They took up temporary
quarters at Mrs. Luccarini's house, and the
bears were placed in a shed in the rear
part of the yard. The musicians started
out yesterday morning for jaunt through
the city, leaving their charges carelessly
tied. The appetites of the shaggy deni
zens of the thickets became considerably
sharpened and when Mrs. Luccarina, for
getting that the bears were there, went out
into the shed last night to get some coal
they suddenly grasped her about the body
and squeezed her affectionately, prepare
tory to making meal of the frightened
woman. She yelled Justify, and a number
of the boarders went to her as
sistance and dragged her from her perilous
position into the house. The animals,
however, had become loosened and pursued
the party indoors. The human occupants
precipitately fled through the front door.
leaving the intruders in possession. The
bears cleared the supper table in the most
approved style and demolished nearly all
of Mrs. Luccarina's chinaware, besides
breaking several chairs. The owners ar
rived upon the scene when the excitement
was at its height and essily captured the
animals. Nobody was injured.
