MICE AND REPTILES.
A Battle !,etween Tc'!l:nntS, Scorpions ar

A Battle Between I.':t.nnts, Scorpions and
 o;.-:,otics.
 In an F",elish wu4.-, called 'sThe Life of ;s Soldier" we find the following account of battles between mice, scorpions and centi- pcdcs in BarbadoCs. The brief narrative is full of interest:
 In clearing the ground for the camp we disturbed a variety of noXious reptiles, such as whipsnal1es of an extraordinary length, but not thicker than 9 goose-Quill; centi- pGdeS of q large s!1c, whose backs were plated like q lobstc9's tail, and scorpions. Having heard that mice were natural enc mics to the two latter, l procured few, that might be q witness to their combat. The arCra. was the space CircumScrIbCd by a glass bell; and upon letting mouse and q scorpion loose in it, a grand display of maneuvcring cusued, the mouse flying to bite off his o..oHcat's tail, which termi- mates in q sung, and the scorpion watching for an opportunity to strike hlm with 1t. Should the former succeed in his first ob- jec:, the latter falls prey; but if stung the mouse swelIs up and dies in con- vulSions. However, the mouse is generally the victor.
 Equal generalship is required in the en- | gag rmcnt with the ccntipede, which de- | fent!s itself with two small nippers, placed | st either side ofits mouth, near the poison i bags. One of our men found a large taran- l tlla on his shoulder one morning when ho awohe, and it suffered itself to be removed without doing him any injury. He brought | 1t to me, as an amateur, and accordingly | placed it under the tell with one of my hardest bitten mice. 1t immediately reared itself on it's hinder legs, remained motion less in this posture, white the mouse ran around the bell, evidently unwilling to face it's new antagonist. This continued a short time; and then, as ii under the influence of an irresistible fascination, the mouse jumped suddenly into the arms of the tafantula, which quickly seized him with two nippers, resembling the claws of cat, and situated at either side of the head, and with such deadly effect that the little quadrupcd instantly swelled up and burst. next let loose two or three mice at a time on the tarantula, but they all shared the | same fate.

 ''Say, Mickey, dere's man wid a cross eye. I'm a goin' ter fly der coop. See!''
 To the average reader the above remark may be a trifie obscure and enigmatical, says the Sporting World. To the tradi- tional race-track haoitue, however, robbed Of It's luetegaace, iJ embraces a world Of meaning. In fact, TO occupation or walk in life ;asn be truthfully said to be more sus- cesible to superstitious influences than the turf of to-day.
 The man whose eyes are cut on the bias, and who appears to be looking around the corner for Sunday, leads the category of individuals whom the speculator dreads to encounter on his way to the track. If he happens to meet pair of eyes which should exchange positions with each other, and hasn't the moral courage to reverse his steps like Gully did, he invariably eXpecto- rates three times, crosses his fingers, does finn fam or two to offset the hoodoo, and proceeds with nervous mind upon his way Contrariss rule to a certain extent upon the turf, and where one poor afflicted mor- tai is abhOrred another is petted fondly.

GAZING AT THE STARS.
How tho Heavens Became One Grand
 Carnival or Constellations.

Carniyal S0nStellatlOnS.
 It was at Spirit Lake, at the very limit of the pier, says the Omaha Republican, They were all alone There was no moon, but the stars were big and bright and so full of self-conceit that they looked at them selves in the water and winked. Far out boat slid noiselcssly along. In a nearer boat a fair tenor voice carelessly half hummed, half sang a common love song. From the hotel came now and then a twang of the strings of the orchestra of mandolirs. On such a night as this did Dido stand upon the wild sea bank and wave he- love to come again to Carthage. On such night as this did Jessica-but a truce to the bard! It was the sort of a night on which a man could make love to his own wife and those two, Edouard and Alicia had not yet bespoken their vows.
 Do you know any thing about the starss" inquired Edouard in a voice like the murmur of the wind in summer trees.
 "A little,' answered Alicia, tenderly. "I know some of the constellations--the Great Bear-the-"
 "Yes," interrupted Edouard, I know all about the big bear and can find the north star; but right over there is a group. Do you know the name of thats' And Edouard threw his arm across Alicia's shoulder and pointed to a cluster of shining worlds in the East.

 ''And there is another constellation just over our heads!" Edouard passed his arm around her neck, and placing his hand un- der her chin so tilted it that 1t would be easy for her to see. And then to Alcia's eyes the heavens became one grand carni. val of constellations. Shooting stars chased each other athwart the Armament, comets played riotous games among the planets and finally there came soft and radiant blur which hid them all.
 Ed suard had kissed Alicia.

 Loads of Arms.
 MILTON, w. Va, Nov. 2.-Another victim has been added to the long list of murdered in the Hatfield-McCoy vendetta by the killing of Mir. James Brown. The Blumfield family, frenzied by the killing of Al Blumfield and his wife, have joined the Hatfelds. They were returning from Huntington with ten wagon loads of arms and ammuni- tion, and stopped at Mrs. Browns for supper. There the Mccoy party fired through the windows, killing Mrs. Brown and wounding James Blumf1eld.
 The Hathelds now have 250 men and the McCoys almost as many. A pitched battle between them in the mountains seems inevitable. It has been deter mined to call on the Governor for troops.
