by Count Smoskoll", tho eminent Rusaittn
botuniHt, who was ennobled by tho Czar tor n'n

the first day of tneyear, It Krown to the heiirht
of ihree ltet, ami flowers on tnc third d.iy,
remains in flower lor twenty-tour hour', and
then diMBoives itself into its original element
stem, lenvrs, and flowers beinj of the finest
Know. Tiie n:ft'k w about one inch in diamet t;
tho leaves, three in number, in the broadest
purl are an inch and a null in width, and arc
covettd with ln'ihitesiinal cones ol nm); they
grow oiJ.y on one side of the stalk, to the north,
curving tjracetiill.v iu the same direction. The
floer when Hilly expanded is in shape a perfect
star; the petals are three inches in length, half
an inch wide in the broadest pari, and tapering
sharply to a point. Theic are alo interlaeed
one with another, in a beautiful manner, torm
ing th? most delica'e basket of frost-work that
the eye ever beheld; for truly this is frost work
the most wonderful. Tim anthers are live in
number, and on the thiid dav alter the birth of
the "Mower ot stow'' are to be seen on the ex
tremities thereof, trembling and glitt.Ttmr like
diamond, the Heeds of ihis wonderful flower,
about as larpe as a pin's head. Tne old botanist
Kays, when tnst he beheld tliis flower, "I was
dtimbwth asoiiishiiient; tilled with wonder
ment, which gave wav to ioy the mo-teestatic
on beliolling this Aonilerttil work of nature,
this remaikaliie phenomenon ot snow. To see
this dower sprintnng trom the snowy desert
born of its own composite aiotns. 1 wii' hed the
stem ol one lightly, bat it tell at tny touch, and
A morsel of fiiow only remii'iied iu my hand."
Gathering some of the (lowers in suio, in order
to preserve the 1 ttle diamond like seeds, he hied
to 8t. Peter-biirti with, to him, the created pnze
ot his Iile time. All through the vear they were
kept in snow, and on the first day of the year
follow inu the Court of St. Petersburg were de
lighted with the bursting lorth of the wonderful
"lrcst (lower !"' Our Inendu in lioston succeeded
in obtaining several of the seeds, nd all tlirough
the summer and auttimu they have been imbed
ded in Miow bioi.tiht at great expense from the
White Mountains and the coast ot Labrador; and
thev now have the met unbounded satisfaction
and pleasure in announcing that all signs are
lavoriihle to the realization ol their loudest
hopes, the production of the "Mover of snow."
The snow and ice are m a large class refrigera
tor, with the thermometer forty-five degrees
below zero, and the solid bed of snow has
already begun to show little fis-ures and a slight
bulging in the ceutie unmistakable evidences
of the u rthcomiiig ot the phenomenon.
MORTALITY OP CHILDREN IN EUROPK.
A paper was read at the last meeting of the
Statistical Society of London, bv Dr. W, Parr,
b H. S on the ".Mortality of Children in the
Principal Cities of Liiiope.'" The proportion of
Knuli-h chil iren, hi; said, who die in the first
five years of age, is very large; and one ot the
causes of this great loss ot lue, among the
poorer classes, especially, is want of care and
attention, by reason ol the absence of the
mother at work in tho Held or in the factory,
often at tne precise period when the child most
needs constant looking alter. Illegitimate
children are, tor obvious reasons, alraod exclu
Bivelv the victims ot infanticide; but the num
ber of deaths trom that crime, he alleges, is in
considerable in comparison with the number of
untimely deaths from other causes. None of
the States of Europe, outside of England, pub
lish an account of the causes of death of the en
tire population, so no comnarison can be made
in that respect; but data have been obtained
from official sources trom which an accurate
view ol the loss ot young lves in Europe, trom
all causes, i an be given. The fact do not at all
refer to the same period, but range variously
from 18.rl to 1MJ3, in the different countries.
The birth rate in Italv and Prussia is 3'i per 1000
ot the whole population; Snain aid Austria, 37;
Knland, the Netherlands, Denmark, and
Sweden, 34; Norway, 33; Hclgiiim, 30;
and Spain, 20. The annual rate of mor
tality of children under five years of
age, per 1000 of the population of the same age,
is in Norway 41; Sweden, 61; Denmark, 53;
England, u'8; Belgium, 75; France, "it; Piusla,
H2; the Netherlands, !1; Austria, lot; ftyaiu,
112; and Italy, lit. Iu England the mortality
of children under five years of age is 101 in
thirty large town districts, while ih tho sixty
three healthy districts ot England it is only
forty. Of 1000 children born alive in Norway.
833 attain live years of age; in Denmark and
Sweden, 7:7; in England, 730; in Belgium. 733;
Frai.ee, 711; Prussia, 083; the Netherlands, 073;
Austria and Spain, 037; Italy, COO; Russia, 003;
in thp sixty three healthy districts of England,
823; and in thirty large town districts ot ling
land, 6-15. Consequently the proportion ot
deaths out of 1000 children born alive is in Nor
way 1C7; Denmark and Swedeu, 203; England,
204; Belgium, 207; France, 28J; Prussia, 317;
the Netherlands, 327; Austria and Spain, 303;
Italy, 3'.M: Kussin, 3'.7; sixty-three healthy dis
tricts ot England, 177; and in thirty largj town
districts ot England, 3.")5. The records of the
peerage of England show that of 10J children
born alive in peers' families 'JO survive, ten only
dying m the first rive years of age; and tno
deaths among the children of tne Euglisn clergy
are nearly In the same proportion. But in the
foundling hospitals these proportions liave been
reversed ; for ninety out ot 100 born alive have
been cut oil' in them during the first bve years
ofliie. By the English Lue Table, ot 100 chil
dren born alive fifteen die in tne first year, five
in the second, three in the third, two iu the
fourth, and one in the tittn making tweutv-six
in the first five years. 01" the Htteeu who he in
the tirt year live die in the nrst mouth of lite,
two in the second, and one iu the tnird moniii.
The French returns show the deaths iu the first
week of ape, and the annual ratp ot mortality iu
that first week is 154 per cent., which may be
thus illustrated: If 100 children just born were
placed iu a house, and their numbers maintained
by the addition of a uew-boru cntld to supply
the place ol every death, so that there should
always be an average ol 100 children maintained
within the walls, l.-4 deaths would take piaee
there in twelve months on the In pothesis that
the mortality rate be that of the lirst week of
hie.
INHABITANTS OF THE IIUMAN BODY.
What think you, reader, of your bodv being a
planet inhabited by living races, as we inhabit
the earth ? Whatever may be your thoughts on
the subject, the fact is even so. Your bodv is
but a home tor parasites, that crawl over its sur
lace, burrow beneath its skin, nest'e in its en
trials, and riot and propagate their kind in
everv corner ot its frame. The sensation in re
gard to trichimt in swine flesh has set tho scien
tific to knocking their heads together,"
and the result is the following facts:
Sammies not only iuhabit the bodies of all ani
mals used by us as food, but thev aro also
lound in abunilaucp In our organization. The
species trichina ttnralis, of which so much is
said, and whose existence has been discovered
in pork, is, accordion to our best anatomists,
jouud in almost every muscle of tho human
body. It lies all along ttle fibres of the mus
cles, enveloped in little cyts or sacs about one
fourth o I an lu h iu leugtu, u can be dis
tinc'lv seen and examined only by the use of
the microscope. Proiessor Wood of this city
says: "No evidence has yet bven produced
of any morbid intluepce exerted by the trichina
upon tho system during life. They have
been found in subjects carried olT by 'sudden
death (accident), end iu the midst ot health."
An Kngllsh ui'thor.ty say: "It is a notorious
fact that numerous parasites do crawl over our
surface, burrow beneath our skm, nestle in our
entrails, and riot aud propagate their soecie In
every comer ot our Irame. Nearly a kcore of
animals belomlng to the interior of tho human
tody have been already discovered aud de
tent ed; i.nd scarcely a tissue or an organ but
is occasionally profaned by their inroads. Each,
k'ho, has its spec al or its favorite dom oil.
Oi e ft ecicB ol stronjte chooses tho heart for Iib
dwelling plat e, another Inhabit the arterlca,
a third the kidneys. Myriads of minute
worms lie coiled up in the voluntary muscle,
or in the areolar ti.-sue that connect
the ttcRhy fibres. Tho quinra-worm and
tho chUpic bore through the skm and reside
in the subiacent reticular membrane. llj
datitLi invest various parts ot the body, but
especially the liver and the brain. A little flake,
in tenctal appearance much like a flounder,
lives steeped iu gall in the biliary vessels. If
you squeeze Irom the pkin of your nose what is
vulgaris called a maggot the contents, namely,
of one of the ln r follicles it is ten to one that
you will find in that small sebaceous cylinder
several auimalcithe, exhibiting under Ilie mi
croscope a cut ious and complicated ctriicture.
Even the eye hai its living inmates. With this
knos ledge of our composition, It matters but
little how many cu'ozoa we consume, so long as
we do not see tlietti it is nothing more than all
ages have done belore us. We might with as
much propriety refuse to drink water, which,
however j ure, is tairly alive with animalcule,
as to restruin from the use of meat because it
exhibits (under the iniscroscopc) entozon.

Professor Wheat-done ascertained that the du
ration of the electric spark does not exceed the
twenty-five thousandth part of a second. A can
non b.all would appear stationary in its (light if
illuminated by the spark, and the wing of an
infect that moves ten thousand times a second
would seem at rest.
No change has been made in the form of th

Money Lf.it in Trust. The amount of money
lefl in trust dv will is yearly increasing in Mas

of the experiment ot using steam whaling ves
sels will be awaited with great interest.
Salt Water on its Trial. The people of New
London art? earnestly labored with by the New
Jondon star and eight doctors to allow their
streets to be sprinkled this summer with salt
water, inasmuch as that is the only kind they
can have. The doctors say it will lie better lor
health than fresh water.
Prodigiously Behind the Times. Miss Polly
Brown, aged 85 j ears aud 5 mouths, died in
Wairen, li. I., oii Saturday. She had 8lways

TnE Misfortunes of Chicago. Work on the
lake tunnel at Chicago has been delayed by an
accumulation of ens. An unusually large
amount recently collected and exploded, the
names extending along tne ceiling for one hun
dred feet. By the explosion several of the miners
were knocked down and others slmhtlv burned
by the flames.
Union Leagues in Alabama. A gentleman
