The Pestifsrous Horse FLY.

Of the fly species the horse fly is
the most cruel and bloodthirsty of
the entire family. He is armed with
most formidable weapon, which
consists of four lancets, SO sharp and
strong thatthey will penetrate leath-
er. When not in use they are nicely
folded away in u sucker. He makes
his appearance in June, and may
often be seen in the vicinity Of small
streams of water. He is said to sub
init in part upon an airy diet, and to
pass his life harmlessly. Not: SO the
female, for she is armed with
six lancets, with which she bleeds
both cattle and horses, and even hu-
man beings. She lays her eggs in
moist places, and, after they are
Matched into footless maggots, they
make all necessary journeys by
stretching and closing the segments
of their bodies, their heads being APP
piled by two hooks, by which they
get their food. In process of time
this maggot goes down into moist
earth, where it reposes for some weeks,
after which it bursts the pupn case,
and comes forth u large black fly,
armed and equipped like it's predeces-
sors.-COuntry Gentleman.

Before arriving at Capon, about
half a mile from the spring, a narrow
way is seen leading directly across
the road in one direction toward
Winchester, in the other toward the
distant Ohio. This way was made
by Gen. Braddock to facilitate the
march ofhis army during the last
French and Indian war which pre-
coded the revolution. Washington
was then on Braddock's staff, serv-
ing with the rank Of colonel. A ira
dition is carefully preserved that he
and Braddock drank ut the beauty
spring, which spring was we'll know n
to the Indians, and deemed by them
to have great medicinal properties,
especially for rheumatism. The In
dian maidens were supposed to be
quite fond of walking in it's waters,
ON account of the silken character
which 1t imparts to the skin. But
the great curiosity of Capon is the
tree, the only tree remaining, which
has the surveyors mark made by
Washington when lie measured the
Fairfax estate for its ancient lord.
Capt. Vale, the proprietor of the
springs, on whose lands it has stood
SO long, ON account ofan accident
which has happened to it, has had it
hewn down and brought to the patch,
where It is to be set up, with proper
marks for recognition. Such n relic
ought to be in possession of the M
tional museum at Washington. It
is the only relic of the kind which re-
lates to the early life of Washington,
long before the era of his fame, when
he wandered through the woods of
Virginia intent only on his profession.
