Pr. Fayrer caused some acnaixtiou by
showing that during the one year iStW
6,'J10 deaths trom snake-bite occurred in
the Bengal Cresidency alone, among a
population of something more than tor
ly-eight millions of souls. He now hor
rifies ns with accounts of devastation
caused by man-eating tiger*. which oc
casionally canst* villages, anil even
w hole districts, to be deserted. In one
instance in the Central Provinces a sin
gle tigress caused the desertion of
thirteen villages, while AW square miles
of country were thrown out of cultiva
tion before the creature was shot. Alio
tlier tigress in killed I'J? |ieople and
stopped a public road tor many weeks
hefora it too succumbed to an English
sportsman. Iu IStiS the Magistrate of
God a very reported that part of the
country overrun with tigers, no road
safe, and that a huge tiger hod recent
ly charged a large body of villagers
within a few hundred yards of the ci
vil station. It is impossible to give ac
curate statistics for the whole ot so vast
a country as Hindustan, but Jcrdon
corroborates these statements to asser
ting that in the district <a*t of Juhbul
pore, in ISSfI and previous vears, ou au
average between two and three hun
dred villagers were killed annuallv.
Tigers appaieutly develop into mati
datcrs when they are old and sluggish,
eau the teeth are somewhat decayed.
Preferring human ticah, they find, wheu
once the awe uatural to wiil animal*
at the presence ot man is shaken otf,
that he offers an easy and temptiug
prey. In some districts they abound ;
while in others, aa in Ouce and Kohil
eum!, oue is only heanl of about every
six years. The natives are extremely
superstitious respecting tigers, and m
many parts dread tbe wrath of the
slaiti tiger's spirit more than they feared
the creature when alive. The small
clavicles or shoulder-bones which are
deeply imbedded iu muscle, are es
teemed valuable charms; while every
sportsman, or, indeed,every one who is
familiar with tiger-skins, knows how
difficult it is to save the tiger's claws.
The whiskers tin* are immediately
plucked out by the sportsman's ser
vants. on the tiger being shot, before
their master can come up. aa they ate

who are most rigorously bouest in all
other respects canuot refraiu from thus
mutilating a skin. On the spot wheie
a tiger has slain a human being, iu the

erect a curious conical mound of earth,
which is orttatiicutcd with sa>mecolored

made the observation that |eople
have very vague ideas about objects
even which are assumed to be well

How many feet has a crab? or, How
many toes has a tat?—questions which
recsdve most varying answers even iu
well-formed ami educated circles. If,
then, the question tic put in the com

query can seldom lie answered before
the meuilierg in question have been
looked at. It seems, further, very prol*-

that the "ring" finger is slightly shor

the latter digit is shorter than the ring
finger; llenle is of the same opinion,
while, according to Hyrtl, it is the In

(the longest) in length; and I/anger,
lastly, says that the Index is generally
shorter than the "ring" finger, hut that
there are individuals in whom they are

A Clever Text.
The Worcester .Spy revives an old but
good story concerning the wife of John
Adams and the mother of John tpiiney
Adams. This noble woman was Abigail-
Smith, daughter of the Rev. William
Smith, of Weymouth, Mass. At the
time of their courtship, John Adams
did not appear satisfactory to her par
ents. The story goes that they neglected
him, left his horse standing at the hitch
ing-post when he visited Abigail, and
. denied bint the hospitalitiesof the house.
Her oldest sister was married to a Bos
ton merchant, and her father preached
for her a "marriage sermon." Finally,
they consented to Abigail's marriage to
John Adams. After the marriage Mr.
Smith said to her. "Well, Abigail, I
suppose I must preach a marriage ser
mon for you; but you must choose the
text." Her quick-witted reply was:
"Very well, I choose tills text: 'John
came neither eating nor drinking, and
ye say lie hath a devil." It is a good
story, and very characteristic of the
wife of Joint Adams.

MADK I. AMI. —A reclamation of a very
valuable tract of laud upon one of the
Scotch rivers wa- made in a very simple
manner recently. Stakes were driven
into lite mild at the water's edge at a
regular distance parallel to tiie course
of the river. Between these stakes
branches of trees ami brush were
thickly matted or Interlaced. This
simple contrivance resulted in the de
posit at every high water of largequan
litiesof silt and mud, until Ht la-t an
embankment was thrown up without
further ex |M*U*C sufllch-nt to keep out
the water except at high flood*. Tin
land thu* reclaimed was sown with
grasses, and Is now used for glaring
aud is valued at f.'WHi |*-r acre for l-liis
piir|o-c alone.—There are thousand* of
acre* alongside of our rivers, both u|ii
the const mid inland, which might IN*
reclaimed in tld- or similar ways at
very little expen-e.
A HCI IT-MIOMKK, writing of the fall

trees, says: "Now, I wish to relate a

lor I have succeeded with pears, which
fiourish and produce good crops. The
trees I raised myself from the seed,
budded or grafted them. I plough the
ground ami keep it hoed, and in the
fall put it bushel of manure around
each tree. This practice of feeding
them annually keeps up a good growth
makes the tree healthy, and the fruit
fair and of gom! size. The best soil for
the |iaar, Is a heavy clay, hut If far
mers lack this, enough can he made
suitable for a small |ar orchard—
enough at least for family use. After
setting the trees, give them good care,
manure, cultivate, and In fact, treat,
them as you would your corn ami pota
toes, and then pea.- culture w ill lie a
success with you."
