From the Quitm,an Herald.

Southern Georgia covered herself with
imperishable glory by defeating quite a
number of formidable independents. Here
tofore the colored element could be counted
on with dead certainty to vote for an indie
pendent but in the last election they broke
the record by voting largely for the demo
cratic nominees for the legislature. This
shows that the colored race now recognize
the fact that they have nothing to fear
from the Democratic party, and hence
forth they will add greatly to its strength.

Nis.Ico's Dancing Nutmeg.

A gentleman recently returned from
Mexico brought with him a curious OBJ.
ject, which would be of great interest &c
lovers OF natural history. He produced
a segment of a Mexican nut, which was
not unlike a nutmeg in texture, and
placed it in the palm of his hand, closing
his fingers closely around it.
After a moments Imprisonment the
hand was opened and the little section OF
the nut rested on its rounded side, upon
which it rocked convulsively. The hand
was closed again for a few seconds.
When it was opened again the mysterious
piece of wood appeared full of animation
and leaped as gayly as a toad. Then the
gentleman explained the principle and
cause of the movements.
There is" said he, "a small worm in
that nut, which is dormant until its tenn
p%erature is raised to that of the human
body-about 9S dogs. When this is
reached the little insect, which is not
more than a sixteenth of an inch In
length, is revived from its torpid state
and causes the spasmodic motion. The
nut is Indigenous to Mexico, and is
usually inhabited by the worm from the
early part of August until the arrival of
the following summer. 1t can be revived
for nine months in a cold climate.-Phil-
adelphia Bulletin.

The use Of paper fabric for building
purpoSes-by the term paper being meant
broadly a flexible sheet madeof vegetable
or other fiber, which has been reduced to
a pulp, and then pressed out and spread

made in rolls Of almost n width and
length, is flexible, or by gluing several
layers together may lie made stiff, and

The nnIet EInw OF Tenrs.

The discharge of tears from the lachry-
NAL gland is not occasional and acci.
dental, as is commonly supposed, but
continuous. II goes on both day and
night-though less abundantly at night
through the ''c%onduits," and spreads

A Certain Proof OF Death.

Those timid beings who are haunted
by apprehensions of being buried alive,
and who make testamentary provisions
against such q contingency, may now
take courage, for science has supplied an
infallible means of determining whether
or not the vital spark has quilted the
mortal frame. Electricity enables us to
distinguish with absolute certainty be-
tween life and death; for two or three
hours after the stoppage of the heart, the
whole of the muscles of the body have
completely lost their electric excitability.
When stimulated by electricity they no
longer contract. II, then, when Farad-
ism is applied to the muscles of the
limbs and trunk, say five or six hours
after supposed death, there can be no
contractile response, it may be certified
with certainty that death has occurred,
for M faint, nor trance, nor coma. how
ever deep, can prevent the manifestation
Of electric muscular ~contractility. Here
there is no possibility of mistake, as there
certainly was when the old tests were
employed.-New York Commercial
Advertiser.

Physical and Moral welfare.

Huxley, in a recent article of peculiar
value in The Nineteenth Century. calls
attention TO the steadily increasing devo-
ton which has been and is directed to
measures for promoting physical and
moral welfare among the poorer classes.
The endeavor TO improve the condition
under which our industrial population
live; TO amend the drainage of densely
populated streets; TO provide baths, wash
houses and gymnasia; to facilitate habits
Of thrift; to furnish some provision for
instruction and amusement in public IL
braries and tire like. is not only desirable
from a philanthfopic point of view, but
an essential condition of safe industrial
development. 1t is by such means alone
that we al hope to check the constant
gravitation of industrial society toward
misery" But Mr.. Huxley does not point
out the fact hat while a good deal Of
this sort Of work went on in Rome, with
out saving Rome from moral degenera-
ton, it is of exceeding value as an adj
junct Of moral effort Of a direct sort in
other directions. -Globe Democrat.

Precautions for solitary Tourists.

Solitary touring is open to the objec-

accident, or happen to be killed, you may
be a nuisance to other people, and espe-

friends at home to some needlessly alb
rupt information. To avoid this | have
been used to carry, not merely my name
and address in my p~ocketbook, but clear
instructions as to what should be done
with the ''body" in case Of death. 1t is

information should first be sent, and
who would be prepared to defray any

other thousands of miles, with a volume
of water equal to that Of the Erie canal;
from these again yet other branches, and
still others, smaller and more numerous,
until there would not be an acre of

Rnatmen Of Havana Hnrhnr.

fragile or dainty about these little harbor
boats or their boatmen, but no Mediter-
ranean port can show you more pictur-
esaue waterside characters than are found
in Havana bay. There are upward Of
1000 licensed guadanos. Each boat is
hooded astern to protect from the sun, is
is rugged with a single mast and sail,
painted in all sorts of fantastic colors
and its speed and Se~aworthiness are some
times marvellous. They are q jangling,
wrangling lot, their owners, the guada-
neros, but ~peaceable and sunny withal.
They are full Of song and wine, and sleep
the year round. Many live in their little
boats. Trey keep alive the legends of
chivalry by murmuring love songs to
everything Of the female form; and in
the moonlight upon the harbor the whole
sensuous night pulses to the rhythmic
numbers Of their weird guarachas.-
