"Neyer heard of jumping spiders before?
Perhaps you doubt me, then, when say
that there are such species?" observed a
well-known merchant to New York Mail
and Express historian, as he sat watching q
spider weaving its silken web on the outer
surface of the window pane. "Oh yes"
he continued, "they are queer little fell
lows, and some of them are disguised, as if
for the purpose of self-protection. Nature
has bestowed upon these insects peculiar
costume, and they are often found resemb-
ling an ant. These insects produce very
small quantity of silk, and are usually to
be found hidden in the cracks of the walls
or in assures of bark in the shadow of the
| foliage, and their homes are generally
made out of a smooth and glossy tissue.
| When the season of the year at which
they lay their eggs comes round the Jump
er shuts itself up in its shell. The eggs
are always deposited in Aimsy sack Not
having the faculty of building webs the
jumpers are naturally hunters and if the
weather is Indictment they are obliged to
fast. If fly hovers in sight the spider
pounces upon it with lightning rapidity.
1t has a faculty of measuring distance so
well that it rarely ever misses its mark.
| But should it miss the fly no harm ensues,
| by reason of the fact that it has fixed a
thread to its starting point, which, unroll-
ing as it leaps, prevents its striking the
ground and affords clew to its rendez-
vous, which is rapidly sought in the event
| of miscalculation."

Habits and Long LIE.

The information which the blanks give
on the subject of habits comedies with the
opinion of most people, formed from OBJ
servation, that longevity without regular
ity of habits is rare. These old people,
men and women alike, are put down as
early risers aud retirers, almost without
exception, and fully nineteen out of every
twenty have observed this custom through
out life, except perhaps at some short
period in youth. Meals have been eaten
regularly, three each day, with dinner at
noon, the exception being so rare as to in
dictate nothing. Exercise in most cases
has been hard work up to Go or 20, and
after that period has consisted when the
regular occupation has been given up) of
walking, gardening, or both. Except in
cases Of sickness these old people are as a
rule as active and as fond of constant occu-
patton of some sort to-day as most men
and women are at 80.
One of the most significant facts gath
cred in this canvass is that regarding occu-
pations Out of 1000 men throughout
life, 46l have been farmers, % have been
carpenters, 20 merchants, 81 mariners, 49
lahorers, u shoemakers, fl manufacturers
% clergymen, % masons, 16 blacksmiths
16 bankers, L each ironworkers, mill
hands, physicians and lawyers, and the
balance are divided among nearly all the
other trades and professions. The list in
cludes only one each Of the following

Pope: In tie German Empire there are
5,0e0 600 Catholics whose wishes and feel
ings must be respected, il being to the in
terest Of their Emperor to keep them con

cannot countenance injustice done to thos
who are committed to nay care, and whom

teaching rights of the church must be re
cognized, and their exercise must be al
