Tond in J oiUh's Cor-janion, I made the acquaintance of a trader, and accepted an offer to accompany him to BiitUh Guiana, journeying aa far as the delta of the Orinoco. Tnls riret annually rises to a height of fifty feet. and corers a tract of country half as large as the State of New York. When the water subsides it leaves large, stajr bant pools along the edge of the savan nahs that lie beyond tbe limit of the innndation, and these pools are literally alive with fish, tbe most common vari ety being the electric eel. Tbe natives are very fond of tbese fish, bnt have a great horror of tbe se vere shock they are able to communi cate at will, employ a peculiar method lo the capture which they call 'intoxi cating by means of horses.1 Paring our stay in the village a number of tbe natives were employed in catching them, and I found the method highly interesting. On visit ing one of tbe pools not yet disturbed, I -iaw some of the fish at re-t. Tbe pool was about halt an acre in extent. tbe surface being partly covered with aquatic growth, and floating around on tbe top of the water, or near the surface was large, yellow, almost livid eels, ; that resembled rather water snanes than eels. Instead of the back being straight as in the ordinary eel. they ap peared to "hump" themselves, that is to say, they drew the stomach In, mak Ing a slight arch on the back. lazily swimming along, they would suddenly straighten themselves out with a jerk, and then curve the back again. This I learned was tbe action of producing the shock, also that its habit is the reverse of that of the cat family, for it straightens Itself when annoyed, and betokens pleasure by keeping its body arched. All around tbe pool were marvelous growths of rushes, and the great Ita palms, which gives the natives food, bouse, clothing, drink and furniture. The hunt, or capture of the eels, be gan in the early morning, soon after daybreak, so as to avoid the beat of tbe noonday. About fifty men started out on horseback, and surrounding a num ber of wild horses drove tbem to a pool. The animals plunged in and commenced swimming across. The eela, driven from the bottom to the surface by the splashing of tbe borses, endeavored to defend their ter ritory against the invaders, with the strange means which nature has given them. Rising to the surface they rush ed at their foes, not to bite tbem, bnt to defend themselves by the discharge or their batteries. In and out among tbe horses they awam, curving and un curvlne themselves rapidly. The horses, crazy with the excite ment and tbe noise of (he men, and the pains from tbe electric discbarges from the eels, with straining, terror-stricken eyes and bristling manes sought to es cape from the storm that bad surprised thfm. Swimming to the nearest edge they tried to land, but were driven back by ehonMng natives who viciously struck them over the bead and face, while the ereat eels, pursuing them to the edge, were speared by the harpoons, and thrown from the points far up on the dry soil, where otter natives killed them. The livid color of the eels was greatly intensified, and they were disagreeable looking orj?cts as they writhed and curled in the water, while their eyes, unduly prominent when at rest, receded far Into the head so as to become al most invisible in their rag at beiDg disturbed. Once or twice a native stumbled In his excitement oyer some obstacleand fell so that ecme portion of hla naked flesh touched a squirming ee.1, and then a yell was heard that left no doubt that it was caused by acute pain. At first, comparatively few were thrown ashore, but in a abort time sev sral of tbe horses, victim? to tbe power of the shocks, were drowned, and grad ually the eels became exhausted and eeetntd to be, as the natives said, "in toxicated." They swam aimlessly around, and were slowly driven down to a narrow part cf the pool, where they were secured, as they lay half tor pid in the shallows, by means of small har poors and Ifibre nets. Those taken in the rets, were transported to email holes dug in the soil, and filled with freshwater, from which they could be easily taken as occasion required, while those speared were intended to be used as immediate food. Such, however, is tbe terror Inspired by these fish, that the natives are very reluctant to take them from the har poons, or otherwise touch tbem until life has been extinct. The electric apparatus of these fish consists of a series of honeycomed look leg cells, filled with a thickish, gelatin ous fluid, abundantly supplied with nerves, and situated between the head and gills. Tbe electrical organs are two in number, and tbe number of cells varus according to the size of tbe fish. In one fish each organ contained four hundred and seventy, and In another, larger fish, one thousand one hundred and eighty-two. Doctor Walsh, of tbe English lloyal Society of London, dem onstrated the passage of the electric current from one of tbese fish through eight persons, administering a percep tible shock to each. As soon as the eels were dead and harmless, they are conveyed to the vill age where one of the intermittent fesli va'.s which appear to come round about every ten daya was inaugurated. The women were busy all day making can vassava, which is a starch obtained from a plant-root belonging to the En pborbiacta. by a rather complicated process. From this cakes are made. and baked upon round pieces of Iron, similar to our griddle cakes. A canoe full of piwarri a drink made of cassava and water fermented was prepared, and the fish, cleaned and rolled in sections of palm leaves, were baked and r erred up to tbe multitude. who beat drums, danced, drank, and yelled until dawn next morning, when tbe usual occupations of the tribe were ri surned.

I'f -- ' "" 'I I II T Forty Proverbs of the Sea. lie who would learn to pray should so to Sf a. When one fells into tbe sea he stays there. 'tien you walk, pray once ; when yau go to Sim, pray twice ; when you ao to ln married, iray three times. Women are chips and must be manned. All the rivers go to the sea, and it never overruns. Thesialsnot soiled because a dog stirs it np. To a drunken man the sea only reach es to the knees. If tbe sea boiled, where would one go to find water to cool it ? What comes by starboard goes by lar board. Being at sea, sail ; being on land, set tle. He that will not sail till he have a full, fair wind will lose many a voyage. Unless you have the wind astern you must know how to navigate. You cannot sail as you would, but as tbe wind blows. In a calm sea, every man is pilot. To a rotten ship every wind is con trary. What fear would he have of the waves who bad Noah for a pilot ? Every sea, treat as it is, growes calm. A large ship needs much water. Wbeie tbe ship can go tbe brigan- tine can go. It is easier to get away from tbe bank than from the bottom. The ship which doesn't mind her helm will mind tbe hidden rocks. lie who can steer need not row. It will not do to have two mains masts In a ship. Better lose an anchor than tbo whole ship. Good roller, good sailer. Do good and cast it into the sea ; if the Oah Ignore it, God will know it. If clouds look like they had been scratched by a hen, get ready to reef your topsails then. The full moon eats clouds. lie wno senas a mean man to sea will get neither fish nor salt. Every part serves in a gale. A mariner most have his eyes on tbe rocks and sands as well as on tbe north star. Ill goes the boat without oars. From tbe boat we get to tbe 6hip. Don't judge of tbe ship from tbe land. Tbe freshest and sweatest fish come from the sal test sea. Xo one can complain of tbe sea who has been twice shipwrecked. He gets his pissape for nothing and winks at tbe captain's wife Tbe sea Isn't burning. He that is embarked with the devil must sail with him. The Heat In Asia. The horror of heat is unknown to us or indeed to any part of Europe, though Xaplea and Athens are desperately try ing sometimes. But to tbe natiye of Scinde, Central Asia, the shores of tbe Tersian Gulf, the sun of Greece is but a trifle. The utter helplessness of man under this infliction adds horror to bis sufferings. There is no hope and no re source when tbe red hot air penetrates to those underground chambers in which tbe summer is passed in Central Asia. "The inhabitants,1' we learn. "shut themselves np to escape" pro bably closing all the apertures of their sebterranean abodes, except those abso lutely necessary for ventilation. Tbe air down below, under 6uch circumstan ces, cannot be imagined by one who has not a touch of experience. Houses of good class are solidly constructed unde ground, with tbe chambers and doors and corridors : but the mass of tbe peo plh inhabit big holes, roofed over, with no kind of permanent convenience, Every winter the frost and snow and rain play mischief with those rough pits, and the damage is not always re paired by tbe following summer. Fancy thousand' of Mongols in these dens, persuing tbeir filthy habits in semi-darkness, suffering the awful tor ment of heat, children wailing, adults raving, always in want of water and generally of food, in an atmosphere be yond conceiving ! Corn for Fattening Purposes. Corn is used, perhaps, more generally than any other grain for fattening pur poses. Of fle6h formers it contaiLS about 10 per cent., warmth giving and fat producing constituents 75 per cent., and of bone substances 1 j per cent. It may be noted that it is not a well bal anced food, as it i9 rich in fat, contain ing oyer 5 per cent, of this alone, even for fattening purposes, and especially should this be observed when it is de sired to produce eggs. It is claimed that the fat trom fowls fed with yel low corn is of a yellowish color, and hence is objected to. In cold weather it may be fed with advantage, but not in summer, as various disorders, caused by internal deposits of fat, are very apt to result. It is good food, and its cheapness is largely in its faver ; but it must be fed in combination with others less rich in fat and warmth giving properties to be used without danger and to give tbe best results. If there is any class of people in the world who need ice it is the f aruier and when tbe article can be had at so little expense we are surprised that so few have it. A building aufneient to bold twenty-five tons cau be erected at a coat not to exceed $23, and the filling costs merely a day or two's work, while the saving In batter alone, if the milk from a dozen cowe is used will more than pay all the costs in one season, be sides tbe comfort of a cool drink and a nice piece of butter on a warm day. Certainly no farmer 'can afford to be without an ice bouse where there is a pond or stream reasonably near, from which to gather tbe ice. Answer Tlile iietlou.

The ninn of Italy. A lecture on the positon of woatnli Italy was given in London by Sijnoti Zampini Silazaro, an Italian lady b, terested In improving the cocditioDo the lives of her countrywomen. Tha slgnorasaid that women in herniiirj country were looked upon as the mri! slaves of men. as was illustrated by tin civil acd penal codes, aud a low opirajn of them was very general. Xotiing was provided to elevate their chiua ters, or to make them self reliant o: strong. Though large sums of mow were spent by the government for ej- j tional culture, few liencfi-s were cod. ferred on women, notwitbstardinr tti fact that women in Italy Lad In past years held high positions and eiercidd a considerable iLfliience in letters, science and arte. Besides the low state of tducatirn, the social position of women in Ita'.? was much to be deplored.
