A HoCUSED INSECT.
How COckrOaches Are Consigned to a
Living Grave by Wicked Fly.

How COclxrOaches Are Consigned to a
Living Grave by q Wicked Fly.
Although cockroaches abound inconven-
lenJly at the Maurlllus, IL was not without
pity that q writer for the New York Ledger
saw them consigned, as they frequently
were, to living grave by wicked-looking
insect much resembling Spanish fly. 1t
was impossible to witness his proceedings,
combined with his glittering blue and green
dress, without imagining the selfish demon
of pantomime leading an innocent victim
to perpetual entombment in some haunted
cavern.
Let the cockroach be moving ever so
briskly across the wall, he no sooner catches
sight of the fatal insect-not quarter of
his size-than all energy leaves him, and he
stands stupidity resigned. The fly then
walks up to him, looks him hard in the face,
and presently, putting forth some appar-
atus that stands him in the place of finger
and thumb, gently takes the cockroach by
the nose, and leads him daintily along for a
foot or two. Leaving him there, he COM
mences a thorough examination Of the
neighborhood, beating the ground up and
down like a well-trained setter, and not
finding what he wants, returns to the
cockroach and leads him on lit
tie farther, when the same process
is gone through, sometimes for hours,
until the whole wall has been examined.
Chinks there are In plenty, but they do not
suit m. He has taken the measure of the
victims bulk, and means to lodge him COM
modiously Presently suitable hole is
found, and the fly, moving backward, gent
ly pulls the cockroach after him into his
last home.
What horrors are perpetrated in this
dark recess can not be more than sur
missed. The object, undoubtedly, is to en-
gage him as a wet nurse. No doubt the
poor cockroach is bored in some part not
vital, and eggs laid in him-a purpose for
which his succulent, motherly frame Is
peculiarly adapted And, not improbably,
during the vicarious incubation, he is sup
piled with food, until the eggs with which
he Is impregnated, being hatched, COM
mence, in turn, for his services, to "gnaw
his towels, their receptacle"
Itls in vain that, during the scene above
described, we urge the cockroach to seek
safety in flight. The poke Of a stick is
disregarded; he seems dead TO all hints; I;
nay, move him to another part Of the wall
he waits there with the same stolid indif-
ference the return of his tormentor. Prob
ably sly thrust is given him in the fist
meeting of the two, some "leprous distill.
ment'i dropped into his ear, for he has en-
tirely the air of being hocused.

One Pair of Gloves for Two.

General Charles E. Hooker, member OF
Congress from tue Seventh Mississippi dis
trict, was one Of the heroes OF the late war
against the Union. He carries an empty
sleeve as relic OF his experiences on the
field. Major Powell, che CAief of the Geo
logical Survey, was in the Union army, and
he also carries an empty sleeve. General
HoOker's lost arm was on bis right side
aud Major Powell's on the left Their re-
naming hands are Of the same proportions,
and they have mutual agreement under
which they purchase gloves In common
Major Powell using all OF the "riRhts" and
General Hooker the "lefts." No difficulty
ever occurs between them about the selec
tion of these gloves, for they pay little at
tention 10 the perennial changes in modes
and fashions.

Sport for n Young Fellow.
It was a fine autumn afternoon in London,
saws the Little Folks Magazine, and the
geological gardens at Regents Park were
pretty full Of visitors, considering the time
of year. Some new attractions had quite
drawn away the crowd from the bear pit,
and the bears, naturally offended at finding
no one there TO take notice OF them, lay
sullking in the darkest corner Of their den,
greatly to the disappointment of an old
gentleman in a fur coat, who poked his
head through one side of The circular railing
that guarded the mouth of the pit in his
eagerness TO get q look at them. All at
once something fell plump upon the brim OF
his fur cap, making him start as II he had
been shot. Had some one thrown a stone
